Chapter 1531 Civilization and Barbarism

In the Delhi occupation, Emperor Muhammad Sha and his ministers were all beaten up. Although the Mughal Empire still existed, and the empire was not in the south, east and west provinces, in fact, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the Mughal Empire was considered a country destruction at this moment.

Kant did not kill Muhammad Sha and his ministers. In Kant's view, it would be more useful not to kill them at this time. Kant asked Muhammad Sha to remain the emperor of the Mughal Empire, firmly controlled them in his own hands, and issued an order to the provinces, demanding that the provinces surrender to the Qing Dynasty.

Although Muhammad Sha is not a wise ruler, he is not a fool. Just imagine that an emperor who can poison powerful ministers as a young king would not understand this? This is nothing more than the difference between dying early and dying late.

Once the entire Mughal Empire was swallowed by the Qing Dynasty, then he, the puppet emperor, would be of no use. What would happen if he waited for him at that time, Muhammad. Sha knew very well.

But even so, Muhammad Sha still did not have the courage to resist at all. There was great terror between life and death. Muhammad Sha still cooperated with Kant in order to survive even if he understood the final result, and only hoped that Kant could save his life at that moment for his pitifulness.

News of the huge changes in the Mughal Empire spread quickly. The first one to get the news was naturally the Western countries in southern India. Western countries never expected that the huge Mughal Empire would lose its capital so quickly under the attack of the Qing Dynasty, and even the emperor and all the ministers in the court became prisoners.

The great changes in the north have caused concern to Western countries, especially the British and French, who are the most powerful in southern India. They are worried that once the Qing Dynasty completely annexed the Mughal Empire, it will cause great trouble to their rule in India, so it is necessary to curb the Qing Dynasty's southward movement, including the Qing Dynasty's annexed the Mughal Empire.

Under the interests of Britain and France, the southern, eastern and western provinces of the Mughal Empire refused to surrender on the grounds that His Majesty the Emperor had lost his freedom and his will was not due to His Majesty's wishes. On the contrary, they all united to form a southern resistance alliance and introduced their own leader, namely, Alamgier II, the youngest son of Jahandar Sha, the eighth monarch of the Mughal Empire, became the new Mughal Empire emperor and resisted the Qing Dynasty in the north.

For their respective interests in India, the British and French not only made a commitment to support Alamgier II, but also provided great military assistance.

With the assistance of two powerful countries, Alamgier II, who was temporarily on the court, felt confident and began to gather the troops that were originally going to reinforce Delhi to set up defense lines in the south, trying to fight against the Qing Dynasty.

When the news reached the Ming Dynasty, it was already late January of the 20th year of Yongye. At this time, the Ming Dynasty was the time when the New Year came, and the entire capital was filled with a warm atmosphere of the New Year.

Today is New Year's Eve. According to the current Ming Dynasty system, the first day of the second day of the first month is the New Year's Day. After the grand ceremony, the court will start to rest in the afternoon. In addition to the on-duty personnel of various departments and military offices, ordinary officials will rest for three days, and then rest for another five days on the Lantern Festival (it was originally two days, but later changed to five days), with a total of eight days of holidays.

There are ground dragons in the side hall, which are different from the cold outside. The side hall is as warm as spring. Zhu Yicheng, wearing ordinary robe, was talking to the Chief Military Minister Jiang Jin, with laughter coming from time to time. It seems that both Zhu Yicheng and Jiang Jin are in a good mood.

"Myanmar in the south and India in the southwest will definitely not be stable for at least several years or even decades. At present, the attention of Western countries has turned from the Ming Dynasty to the other side. These days, the British and French ministers have contacted the Ministry of Foreign Affairs several times and proposed the suggestion that our Ming Dynasty should come forward to help the two countries stabilize the two places." Jiang Jin said with a smile, his expression full of relaxation.

Zhu Yicheng nodded and said seriously: "This is indeed a big deal. My Ming Dynasty has a good relationship with Western countries, so we naturally have to do a part of it. Just let the Ministry of Foreign Affairs take action on this matter, so as to show my Ming Dynasty's attitude."

Zhu Yicheng's words made Jiang Jin's smile even more. He pretended to get up and salute Zhu Yicheng, saying that he was following the order. After sitting back, the monarch and minister laughed at the same time.

Yes, attitude can be shown, but whether or not, or how to do it is another matter.

Whether it is Myanmar or India, these are two important pawns left by the Ming Dynasty. The purpose is to disrupt the Indian subcontinent, including the South China Sea, and cause some trouble for Western countries.

With the continuous rise of the Ming Dynasty, Western countries were increasingly vigilant and prepared for the Ming Dynasty, and even to a certain extent, they had taken action to curb the Ming Dynasty. In order to break the diplomatic deadlock and at the same time transfer the goals of Western countries, Zhu Yicheng spent so long to play this game. Now the power of this game has been revealed. Zhu Yicheng was too happy to be too late, so how could he "destroy his martial arts"?

"Emperor, it's okay with Myanmar. The Qing Dynasty is probably a bit difficult for India. Although it took Delhi and captured the other emperor, the Mughal provinces have elected a new emperor, and there are support from Western countries behind it. I am worried that the Qing Dynasty will not be able to stop the counterattack of the Southern Union by then, and if the Indian pawn will be destroyed..."

Jiang Jin was a little worried. According to the news sent back, although the Qing Dynasty had the upper hand, the Qing Dynasty had too few populations in India. You should know that the population of the entire India is no less than that of the Ming Dynasty. In addition, with the strong support of Western countries for the Southern Union, it is still a matter of whether the Qing Dynasty could completely annex the Mughal Empire in the end.

"It's okay." Zhu Yicheng was more confident about this matter than Jiang Jin. There was no second person in the world who knew better than Zhu Yicheng. Moreover, according to the information, the Qing Dynasty began to establish the Eight Banners in India with the Eight Banners as a template, and at the same time adopted the barbaric rule measures of the Later Jin Dynasty.

Although civilization is higher than barbarism, barbarism is a powerful tool to destroy civilization to a certain extent. This was proved by the establishment of the Mongol Empire, and on the land of India, the semi-feudal and semi-slave system of the Qing Dynasty was more suitable for promotion.

From this point of view, Zhu Yicheng admired Kant. Kant still had some tricks. After arriving in India, he quickly understood the political structure of India and the situation of the Indian caste system, and decisively took the decision to implement the Eight Banners system in India.
