When King Tang and King Fu heard this, they immediately looked at each other.
Afterwards, King Fu guessed a little worriedly: "Could it be that they don't let us escape? Look at what you have done to this vassal country!"
The King of Tang was speechless and said with a little grievance: "I don't want to think about it, it's not because the imperial army failed to defend it. Then the Persian Empire and the Ottoman Empire are all big countries. If they attack from the north and the south together, who can resist it?" "
After a pause, he became a little more angry and said in a hateful voice: "It's a shame that Gu sent them money and food, and even sent troops. But even so, he still couldn't stop the enemy and spent so much money and food in vain. .I’ll never do it again!”
After hearing this, King Fu could not help but sympathize with King Tang. He nodded and said: "Yes, anyway, we have the military and political power of the vassal state ourselves. No matter how much money or food we give them, we still have to rely on ourselves for everything!"
After hearing this, King Tang looked like a confidant, and then changed the subject and said, "Let's see what King Meng has to say first, shall we?"
"Okay!" King Fu heard this. This was a serious matter. He quickly agreed and sent someone to bring King Meng's envoy.
In just a moment, King Meng's envoy arrived. After receiving the greetings, he said forcefully: "Our Highness said that in the Ming Dynasty, there were only vassal kings who died in battle, and there were no vassal kings who escaped. Otherwise, how will the Zhu family face it?" Officials?"
"..." Prince Tang and Prince Fu were dumbfounded when they heard this. They did not expect that King Meng would send someone to say this.
When he came back to his senses, King Fu was not happy, and immediately said to the envoy: "The enemy is powerful, so we are just retreating temporarily. Your King Meng said it lightly and has the ability. Why doesn't he try it himself?"
"Our Highness has arrived with the army. Please take care of your troops and horses. Don't embarrass our clan!" King Meng's envoy replied with his head held high.
King Fu was very depressed when he heard this. Just when he was about to get angry, King Tang took the first step and said: "Okay, okay, I understand. I will reply to you, King Meng, and say that everyone knows it!"
As soon as the messenger left, he said to King Fu again: "That boy has led troops to attack the south before, and the battle went smoothly. I thought he was as capable as his father. Why don't we take him as the leader and give it a try in a battle? Try. It’s best if you can win, but if you can’t win, he won’t be able to ride on our heads and show off his power!”
Neither of them dared to directly offend the current emperor's biological son.
When King Fu heard this, he thought it made sense, so he just complained a little and ordered to stop going eastward.
Two days later, King Meng led his army, about 30,000 horses, and arrived.
Wearing full armor and riding a tall snow-white horse, what a heroic appearance! Just the appearance alone compared Prince Tang and Prince Fu at once.
His vassal army also looked very good. At least when compared with the armies of King Tang and King Fu, it is really obvious.
King Meng met with the two vassal kings. In his words and deeds, as revealed in the message he asked the messenger to take him there, he looked down on their incompetence.
"Think of our Ming Dynasty, which has won every battle and opened up unprecedented territories. Who can be our opponent in the world today?" King Meng pointed to the west with high spirits and said, "Since you have found all kinds of excuses to be timid and avoid war, then I will fight alone! After defeating the enemy, I will report to my father together and we must bring the scum in the Ming army to justice!"
His words made King Tang and King Fu blush. If it weren't for the fact that King Meng was the biological son of Emperor Chongzhen, they would definitely talk back. But at this time, after they looked at each other, they began to talk to encourage King Meng.
King Meng was only in his early twenties, and everything was going smoothly, and he had never experienced setbacks at all. In the past, when we went south to fight and conquer cities and territories, there were no decent opponents at all, and they even surrendered after hearing the news.
Therefore, when he heard that King Tang and King Fu fled without fighting in the face of the enemy's attack, he was very angry, so he led his troops to fight.
So, at the instigation of King Tang and King Fu, King Meng took the lead and fought westward, vowing to defend the honor of the Ming Dynasty.
Of course, King Meng was not a fool. He asked King Fu and King Tang to go together, preventing them from hiding behind.
Seeing that they were getting closer to the place originally occupied by the Persian Empire army, King Tang and King Fu became nervous.
"Report..." Ye Bu stopped his fast horse and galloped closer. He dismounted and reported to the three vassal kings, "There are no Persian Empire troops ahead. The news that my subordinates heard is that they have retreated to the southwest."
Upon hearing the news, King Tang and King Fu were dumbfounded. Could it be that the emperor of the Persian Empire was really a candle-headed man with a silver spear, and he escaped after hearing that there was a counterattack here?
King Meng was even more excited, which was the same as when he attacked the south. So, he immediately excitedly ordered the army to pursue him.
The king of Tang Dynasty disagreed and wanted to take back Delhi. And he said that there is still a war in Lahore, and there are Ottoman troops.
After hearing this, King Meng said with great regret: "They are all just a bunch of losers. If we leave my father, no one will know how to fight?"
After finishing speaking, he immediately waved his hand and led the troops to Delhi and then to rescue Lahore.
King Fu wanted to visit Delhi. After all, it was the capital of the Mughal Empire and it was definitely better than him.
Just like that, the army marched towards Delhi.
Along the way, there were scattered soldiers of the Persian Empire, as well as some thieves and bandits. Anyone who stood in front of the army was pushed past.
This battle was extremely easy again. Many generals began to flatter King Meng. Even the generals on the side of King Tang and King Fu wanted to flatter King Meng when their vassal king didn't see them.
There is no other reason. It seems that King Meng is wiser and more powerful than their vassal king. The most important thing is that King Meng is the biological son of the current Ming Emperor.
The journey went very smoothly. On this day, when we were approaching Agra, the situation suddenly changed.
None of them expected it, and they didn't know what was going on. Suddenly, Persian troops appeared all over the mountains and plains, killing them all by surprise.
King Meng hurriedly commanded the battle, but he was suddenly attacked, and the military orders were not conveyed smoothly. In addition, King Tang and King Fu's troops fled so fast. In less than an hour, the armies of the three vassal states collapsed.
On the top of the mountain in the distance, Abbas II was here, looking at the battlefield in front of him with a sneer, and said to himself: "I am only afraid of the Ming Emperor alone. As for the others, hehe, it's just cats and dogs, so... Consider yourself a tiger!"
Originally, he retreated quickly, but the rear army reported that the Ming army had counterattacked and was chasing after him.
At first, Abbas II didn't want to pay attention to it. It was important to escape first. As a result, unexpectedly, news came one after another from the rear army, saying that the Ming army behind them violated military taboos when marching and had been immersed in pursuit.
The shadow that was hunted by Emperor Chongzhen before was the lingering nightmare of Abbas II. However, it was limited to Emperor Chongzhen. Even more so, it was unpleasant to be chased like this. In the end, Abbas II changed his mind and decided to deal with the Ming army behind him.
He wants to tell others that not everyone can touch his Abbas II butt!
Nothing was unexpected. They marched quickly and turned north, ambush on the road leading to Delhi. They really succeeded in raiding the ragtag group behind them.
According to the original plan, Abbas II had been worried that Emperor Chongzhen would bite him, so he planned to win the battle, teach them a lesson, and then quickly continue to retreat westward.
Unexpectedly, the prisoner captured by his men got the news and immediately reported it to him.
"What?" Abbas II couldn't believe it after hearing this, and immediately confirmed, "You said there is a biological son of the Ming Emperor in the army?"
"Your Majesty, it's absolutely true!" His men replied in surprise, "It's their King Meng. He was originally in Bengal. But he showed his courage and came here with his army."
After confirming the news, Abbas II immediately began to think nervously. He weighed in his mind that even if the Ming Emperor came, the Ottoman Empire army in Lahore would definitely delay him for a few days. Then we have to go to Delhi, which will take a few days. Calculating carefully, I should still have time.
Thinking of this, he ordered that the defeated Ming army should be hunted down immediately. Within two days, those defeated troops must be hunted down and the son of the Ming Emperor should be captured alive.
For the Persian army, Emperor Chongzhen was a big mountain weighing on their hearts. As a result, the weight of Emperor Chongzhen's son became a bit heavy. After Abbas II issued the decree, everyone was immediately like a chicken blood.
NND, if I can’t beat you, how can I beat your son?
At this time, the armies of the three major vassal states were in trouble.
Originally, they thought they could breathe a sigh of relief as the Persian Empire troops retreated. The three vassal kings all escaped and met each other. Just when they were about to complain about each other, the Persian Empire's army appeared. So, without saying anything, just run away.
Running in front, chasing behind, non-stop. Later, King Fu who was riding in the carriage was frightened that he would be caught if he sat down again, so he quickly changed his horse and ran away.
However, King Fu is fat. He is usually pampered and has never ridden a war horse. This time, I was a little dumbfounded.
What should I do, are I going to die here?
Faced with this situation, King Tang and King Meng had no idea. Seeing the pursuit of the Persian Empire getting closer and closer, do you really want to leave King Fu here to die for his country?
King Fu cried, and while he was crying, he complained about King Meng. He was trying to be a hero, but now he is ready and wants to kill him!
At this time, King Meng lost all his previous high spirits. He experienced his first setback in life and became taciturn. No matter what King Fu said, it was always an ironclad fact that he was defeated.
By the river on the plain in the distance, traces of the Persian Empire's cavalry have appeared, looking for a way to cross the river.
"Run as fast as you can." King Tang sighed and said to King Fu, "It will be too late when the Persian Empire goes around the river to catch up!"
King Meng was still very unwilling. If the Persian Empire army dared to fight openly, he might not lose. But now he is still running for his life, and there is no chance!
With this in mind, he took one last look at the enemies on the other side of the river, and then prepared to continue withdrawing eastward. But at this moment, he seemed to be under a spell of immobilization, and he suddenly became stupid.
