Chapter 1366 Capture India <3>
The war in India lasted for nearly two years. While negotiating with the Ganchao, the Allies stepped up their attack on the Mengxi coalition forces.
At this time, Gan Chao also knew that the Allies wanted to use negotiations to delay time, so they increased their support to the Mengxi coalition forces while negotiating.
Gan Chao's attitude made both the Mengxi Allied Forces and the Allies develop a complex mentality.
The Allies were somewhat grateful that Gan Chao was at least not ready to march into India for the time being, so that they could concentrate on dealing with the Mengxi coalition forces.
However, should Gan Chao jump over the bottom line set by him? Will Gan Chao fight the materials transported to the Mengxi coalition forces?
If the battle is fought, Gan Chao will join the war immediately. If the battle is not fought, the Mengxi coalition forces will receive a steady supply of supplies from Gan Chao.
This will make the Allies' war in India more difficult and make Ganchao profitable.
In the eyes of the Mengxi coalition, they were undoubtedly a little disappointed, and they could not get direct military support from Ganchao in a short period of time.
This made the Mengxi coalition army, which was already very tired and had already shown signs of decline, was not good news. However, the promised supply of materials finally gave the Mengxi coalition army a little psychological comfort and had the courage to hold on.
After Zhang Xianzhong agreed to Gao Huan's all requests, Ganchao's goods began to be continuously transported to Kolkada and then handed over to the Mengxi coalition forces.
On the sea, the British and French fleets saw Gan Chao's transport ship and did not dare to attack rashly. They could only watch Gan Chao's supplies and continuously transfusion blood to the Mengxi coalition forces.
At this time, a British warship was monitoring ten Ganchao merchant ships and entering the Bay of Bengal. The captain shouted in a deep voice, "Return, we must inform the headquarters of this situation!"
The British ship turned a bay on the sea and left the Bangladesh waters.
At this time, the transport ship entered the port of Kolkada, and the fleet, led by the territorial corps, moored the ship at the dock.
In addition to the supplies from the Gan Dynasty to the Mengxi coalition forces, there were also thousands of Koreans and Japanese who were sent in the name of laborers.

Delhi City, Allied Command.
"The resources of Ganchao are constantly transported to Bangladesh! If this continues, the enemy will soon recover its strength!" Smith said in a deep voice: "Now I suggest that we must launch another new battle before Ganchao joins the war and the enemy's strength recovers, and end the war in India as soon as possible!"
After learning that Ganchao's cargo ships continued to arrive in Kolkata, the British side became uneasy.
Aurangzeb had a calm face. He now wanted to end the war as soon as possible.
In the past two years, the war has been carried out within the Mughal Empire, and the empire has suffered heavy losses.
If the battle continues, the Mughal Empire will be destroyed.
"Ben Khan agreed to launch a new battle, but the enemy has obtained supplies from Gan Chao, so Ben Khan also needs to add some equipment!" Aurangzeb took the opportunity to ask Britain and France for arms.
In the war between the Allies in India, the main force was the Mughal Empire's army. We wanted to launch a new battle and defeat the Mengxi coalition in one fell swoop, and we really wanted to strengthen the Bangladesh army.
Smith and Mark looked at each other, and after discussing for a while, Smith nodded, "The British Empire will give you another batch of artillery!"
Mark said: "France will provide you with a batch of flintlock guns."
...
In June 1664, the "Bodh Gaya Battle" which later generations called the "Fight of Indian Meat Grinders" broke out.
The British and Mohist coalition forces assembled 200,000 people on the Western Front and used 200 artillery pieces to attack the coalition camp.
At dawn on June 1, as a signal flare rose into the sky, more than 200 artillery pieces from the Allies roared together.
The cannons of the Allies roared and poured shells into the coalition camp.
At dawn, many fortifications inside and outside the coalition camp had been destroyed by artillery shells. As soon as the cannon stopped, with the roar of the officers, the Mughal army of six 10,000 people made a burst of shouts and launched a surging attack on the coalition camp from the front line about ten miles wide.
In the coalition camp, artillery and muskets fired, cannons that fired shots swept across the enemy army, and blossomed bullets exploded among the enemy groups, and the attacking Mughal army fell to the ground like mowing grass.
The Mughal army relied on the large number of people and charged wave after wave, and then fell down countless corpses, and finally rushed into the coalition front.
"Kill!" The coalition forces in the camp roared, and the officers led the way and took the lead in launching a counter-charge.
The Mengxi Allied Forces, who jumped out of the bunker, launched hand-to-hand combat with the enemy. The coalition forces were full of fighting spirit and suppressed the enemy's charge again and again.
The fierce battle continued every day. Under the fierce attack of the Allied Army, all the outer positions of Bodhgaya were lost.
The news of the defeat of the Mengxi coalition in Bodhgaya reached the capital of Bangladesh. Shahshuja and Zhang Xianzhong were shocked. They realized the intention of the Allies and immediately convened a military meeting and ordered troops to send troops to reinforce Bodhgaya, so that the defenders could defend their positions at all costs, stabilize the defense line, and wait for reinforcements.
In Bangladesh, more than 50,000 soldiers who had trained for less than three months were equipped with weapons supported from the Qian Dynasty and quickly drove to the battlefield for reinforcements.
As soon as the 50,000 troops arrived, Li Dingguo used him to launch a counterattack.
On July 3, the coalition's counterattack began, and more than 50,000 soldiers attacked the positions occupied by the Allies under the cover of fierce artillery fire.
An army of three thousand Japanese and two thousand Koreans was also put on the battlefield under the command of officers.
Gao Huan believed that the Qian Dynasty did not need to end so quickly, but he was worried that the Mengxi coalition forces would not be able to withstand it, so he decided to launch the Wangou Tianzheng and call on the vassal states to support the Mengxi coalition forces.
Gao Huan not only wants to get India, but also uses India as a battlefield to test the combat effectiveness of the Greater China tribute system.
In order to please Gao Huan and for the interests of the tribute system in India, all countries actively provide assistance.
The first batch of reinforcements were North Korea and Japan, which were favored.
At this time, in the command post, Li Dingguo assigned tasks to the Mengxi coalition forces, and his eyes were on the officers of the Korean and Japanese army.
"Kim Sung-jun!" Li Dingguo said in a deep voice.
"Come!" North Korean officer Kim Jun stood up.
"After the battle begins, your troops will take back this mountain along the eastern path!" Li Dingguo gave serious instructions.
"Abide by the order!" Kim Sung-jun looked excited. The North Koreans can finally contribute to the Celestial Empire and give the North Korean leader a face.
"Matsuhira Kojiro! Your troops act together with the Korean army. Whoever takes the top of the mountain first will be the first attack in this battle!" Li Dingguo pointed at the sand table.
"Hey!" Kojiro Matsuhira quickly saluted.
"All combat orders have been issued." Li Dingguo immediately waved his hand, "Split up the meeting and prepare for the attack!"
In the early morning, the artillery of the coalition forces began to roar, and two thousand Korean troops and three thousand Japanese soldiers immediately launched a crazy attack on the hill occupied by the enemy under the command of the officers.
