Daming Yuanfu

Chapter 2149 Chief Baikui (卌三) Help
"Then don't worry too much. After hearing the false news, he will definitely send troops to Arakan."

As soon as Gao Wushi finished speaking, Huang Zhiting suddenly seemed to think of something, and thought about it: "Master, do you think Daniar's thoughts are a bit like 'Chong Er was born outside, Shen Sheng died inside'" ?”

Huang Zhiting's words brightened Gao Pragmatic's eyes, because the husband and wife were not the only ones present at this time, he wanted to boast: "Zhiting has gained a lot from studying all these years!"

But since there were other people present, Gao Wushi could only smile and nod his head, and said, "In terms of his choice, it is indeed so."

After a pause, he continued: "To sum up the current information, it can be seen that most of the supporters around Akbar's eldest son Salim are the political, military, and religious leaders of his sect. It can be said that he has mastered a large-scale Persianized the power of the Mongol military aristocratic clique.

Plus, he is said to have some stepmother support.I think these so-called "stepmothers" should be mistranslated, and the actual reference may be those concubines with Mongolian or Persian blood.

We know little information about Akbar's second son, Murad, but judging from the performance of his father Akbar, this son should hold the same position as his father Akbar.In other words, the force behind him should be supporters of the Indian native faction.Among them, I think the most important supporter is his biological mother and Akbar's favorite concubine Mariam.

As a result, the status of the third son Daniar is very embarrassing.Each of his two elder brothers has a faction of supporters. Both the supporters of this sect and the supporters of the Indian native faction are included in the term. So when it comes to him, where do the supporters come from?As a result, he became a cold stove, and I am afraid that few people are interested in burning it. "

Gao Wuzheng raised a question at this time: "Brother, do these three people have their own biological mothers, or are they siblings? I mean, why did you mention that the second son Murad has the support of his biological mother, while the eldest son Salim has the support of his biological mother?" The stepmother supports? Also, the youngest Daniel has no concubine who is willing to support him?"

"This matter is a bit complicated." Gao Wushi shook his head slightly, and said: "Akbar has thirty wives[Note 1], and I don't know how many children he had, but the above three are the only ones who can stand on the stage at present. , and the three of them are actually siblings, born of Mariam."

[Note: It may be because India has no tradition of compiling history, and no clear information can be found on the harem system of the Mughal Empire. The title of "Queen" is either not mentioned or is vague.Judging from part of the data, the "queen" does not seem to have a fixed title. For example, Jahangir bestowed the title "Light of the Palace" on his favorite concubine, and was bestowed "Light of the World" five years later.

But there are also some records that show that Mughal queens have fixed titles, and "Begum" is the official title of queens, but this title is different from Chinese queens in that it can be owned by more than one person.I personally suspect that according to the tradition of the sect, four more people can share this title.As for how other "concubines" should be counted and how to call them, I really don't know, because there is no place to look them up.

I even opened a Europa Universalis 3 specially, in this game, the title of the queen of the Mughal Empire is written as "Paddy Sabie".I don't know if it is a translation problem or there is a real source. I just note it here for readers' reference.In addition, if any readers understand this knowledge, pointers are very welcome.

In the end, Gao Yushi directly used the term "wives and concubines" here. On the one hand, he didn't know what to say, and on the other hand, the four people he faced were also unlikely to understand the situation in India, so he vaguely used Daming. The statement here. ]
Gao Wuzheng nodded repeatedly, and said: "So that's the case. Needless to say, this Maryam must be the Mughal queen, so only her three sons have the right to inherit the throne. Just like before the Xuanwu Gate change, only Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, and Li Yuanji are equally qualified to succeed to the throne, so none of the other princes participated in the open and secret struggles at that time."

His statement is definitely not right, after all, the Mughal sect can have four wives, but Gao Yushi is not sure what the problem is here, after all, he was not very interested in studying those sects before.Anyway, these three sons of Akbar now have "names and surnames", so it seems that Gao Wuzheng's understanding in this way is not a big problem.

This time, Huang Zhiting couldn't help but said: "This Mariam is quite strange."

Gao Wushi was a little surprised and asked, "What's so strange?"

Huang Zhiting shook her head and said, "Generally speaking, the eldest son is often the one that parents put the most effort into, and the youngest son is the one they love the most. It is rare for parents to put aside the eldest son and youngest son, and instead love the second son the most."

She paused, then tilted her head and thought for a while, and said: "The master said that the Mughals are actually 'Mughuls', descendants of Mongolia. Then according to the Mongolian tradition, it should be 'Young Son Shou Zao' that's right, how come this Daniar, as the youngest son, doesn't seem to have gained any power or favor?"

Gao Wushi also shook his head and said: "I said that the Mughals are the Mughals, descendants of the Mongols. But don't forget, I also said that they are the descendants of the Persianized Mongols. It’s more like Persia. As for Mongolian traditions, there’s probably only a little inheritance left over for cavalry.”

Huang Zhiting no longer distinguished, just shook her head and muttered: "Strange, really strange."

Gao Wuzheng took over the previous conversation, and said again: "That is to say, the second son Murad is now the emperor and the queen are optimistic about him, and want to make him the crown prince. According to the previous information, as the eldest son of the emperor, Sa Lim should have strong strength, and I'm afraid he already has the heart of disobedience.

Now, Daniar, who is the third son and weak in strength, has only won a Bangladeshi governor, like Tang Zhijiedushi.Therefore, he very much needs to show his abilities in order to attract more people to support him, and it is from this that my brother concluded that given the situation he is currently facing, he will definitely send troops to fight me this time? "

It seems that Gao Wuzheng has made great progress compared with the past. Gao Wushi immediately praised a few words, and then said: "That's right. The reason why Daniar was neither in the Akbar army nor stayed in the rear is obviously convenient. Because he will be overshadowed by his brother in both places. In the Akbar army, people only know Murad; in the rear, people only know Salim. Who cares about him who has no support What about fringe characters?

In particular, once he stays in these two places, his two elder brothers will definitely win him over, and he may not be willing to choose one to follow, and he may also worry that if he chooses wrong, he may be succeeded in the future. Killed by the elder brother.So, that's why he chose 'Chong'er was born outside'.

But "Chong'er was born outside" is not just for survival, but more importantly, to be able to go back and inherit the great cause, he needs to do some major things that attract worldwide attention, so that everyone knows that except Salim and Murad , and he Daniar - he is also the object of betting. "

Having said that, even if the basic situation is explained clearly, everyone nodded to express their understanding, and at the same time fell into deep thought.

After a while, Gao Qi suddenly thought about it and said: "I remember that the Secretary-General mentioned once before he went south that although Salim was in the rear, when he was on the southern expedition in Akbar a few years ago, this guy was in A separate imperial court was established in the rear, forcing Akbar to return to the army to suppress the rebellion.

It was said to put down the rebellion, but in fact there was no serious fight. After Akbar came back, many people around Salim were a little shaken. They didn't want to meet the emperor Akbar, so the rebellion was put down.However, because there were too many supporters around Salim, and they were all directly descended from the great nobles of the Mughal sect, Akbar failed to do anything to the eldest son, but only gave him a fief, which was sealed in the neighboring Bengal. Bihar, Orissa area..."

What Liu Xin said was actually the news from Gao Yuan last time. Gao Wushi discussed it with her, and told Liu Xin that if there was no participation of Jinghua, the winner of the "three sons seizing the heir apparent" would be Salim in the future.Of course, it is impossible for Liu Xin to tell Gao Qi the latter, so Gao Qi needs to draw his own opinion based on the known information at this time.

Gao Qi saw that Gao Wushi just nodded slightly, but he didn't intend to speak, so he continued: "Then is there such a possibility now: Daniar asked his brother Salim to borrow troops?"

Gao Wushi shook his head and vetoed: "Impossible, and even if he opened his mouth, Salim would not agree. Although Salim may not think that Danyar is a threat to him now, they are also descendants of Mongolians. Although the country is now established in India, you can see from their ruling system that the power of these people largely comes from the strength of their own troops. Under such circumstances, how could Salim hand over his soldiers to his younger brother? master?"

After a pause, Gao Wushi added: "In addition, there are some things I can tell you: Bangladesh is not stable now, and there are hidden dangers inside and outside. The outside is that it is close to the Kingdom of Assam and worries that the Mughal Empire is annexing Bangladesh. Not satisfied after that, the next step was to invade them, so they were eager to find some allies to fight against the Mughal Emperor Akbar.

In Bangladesh, there is a local leader named Isa Khan, who has roughly united the resistance forces in Bangladesh, has agreed to unite with Assam against the Mughals, and is even willing to seek our support. "

Everyone's eyes brightened, and there is such good news?That being said, if the inside and the outside can be combined, for example, if there is a plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain, and while Daniar leads the army to leave Bangladesh, the Isa Khan in Bangladesh suddenly raises his troops, wouldn't Daniar be cut off? road?Then it will be easier for my Southern Xinjiang army to defeat him!
However, Gao Pragmatic's good news hasn't finished yet. He smiled again and said, "At the same time, Salem may also be wooed."

what?
The news was so shocking that even Gao Guoyan, who didn't care much about military affairs, couldn't help but be speechless: "No way? He is the emperor's eldest son, so how could he be wooed by us?"

"It's not that difficult." Gao Wushi smiled and said: "Bangladesh is a new territory that the Mughal Empire has only conquered in recent years, and it has not been very stable. The high cost of ruling this area within the Mughal Empire has its own reasons. Many people are dissatisfied, and Salem may be among them.

Of course, this is not the main reason, the main reason is that Bangladesh is now controlled by Danyar, and Danyar obviously intends to neutralize the struggle with Salim and Murad, which makes Salim very uncomfortable dissatisfied.

He is... hum, since he can't be an ally, at least he can't let Bangladesh become a knife in his back.Therefore, he would rather lose Bangladesh and have a solid rear.Of course, it would be best for the Bengal rear to support him in defeating Murad, or even... simply defeating Emperor Akbar. "

Good guy, it's really a big filial piety.But it's not surprising, the group of Mongolian descendants in Central Asia has done a lot of things like this, and Salim's pediatrics are really nothing.Gao Yushi, who has read a little bit of Central Asian history, believes that for a long time, what happened in that place can only be described as a "moral depression in human society".

As soon as Gao Wushi said these words, several people in the meeting were stunned and silent again.After a while, Huang Zhiting said: "My lord, if we summarize it now, is it like this: Bangladesh is actually troubled internally and externally, but Danial may not know it. What he cares about at the moment is to fight us by rescuing Arakan, and then play Prestige, to promote his own status in the Mughal country.

At the same time, Salim, whose fiefdom is close to Bangladesh, already has a tacit understanding with us. Even if he will not go off to pick peaches in Bangladesh, at least he can stand still and do nothing?
If this is the case, what will happen to Bangladesh's ownership after this war?Should we march into Bengal and become the master, or should the local leader, Isa Khan, turn himself into the master?In addition, what is the request of the neighboring kingdom of Assam? "

Gao Wushi said: "Daniar is already doomed to be a dead bone in the grave, so I won't say more. There is no need for him to use troops on Salim's side, and I don't want him to intervene in Bengal, lest it is easy to ask God to give up. He just needs to stand still in Bihar and Orissa and wait for our 'support'.

As for Isa Khan, in fact, we have already arranged experience, haven't we?Think about it, aren't the kings of the kingdoms in southern Xinjiang still alive and well?We've been putting them on the bright side for so many years, right?That being the case, why can't Bangladesh do the same?
In my opinion, after taking Bangladesh, we will give this Isa Khan a king of Bangladesh as agreed. As the king of Bengal, don't you have to sit back and relax, not afraid that Akbar's army will be overwhelmed again?We are supporting him and helping him. "

You're so right, I'm speechless.Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and then laughed dryly.

PS: I’ve been a little stuck these two days, but it’s not that I’m stuck in my thinking, but because India doesn’t study history, I’m having a hard time finding a lot of relevant information.Now I suspect that it is difficult for me to implement the outline of the Indian plot... How should I put it, my plot arrangement generally evolves according to the basic historical facts, adding the changes brought about by the plot of the novel on the basis of historical facts.The problem now is that if you can’t find the basic historical facts, you will inevitably worry about superficiality when writing, or you will find out that the previous text is flawed in historical facts, so now you are a little afraid to write it.
