Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 1522 The Fall of the Mughal Emperor

After Chu Yun came to this era, he became the nemesis of various emperors and kings. Countless emperors and kings were directly or indirectly killed or placed under house arrest because of him. Dongjiang Town Prison even imprisoned a large number of princes and nobles from all over the world. .

Later Jin, Daming, the Shogunate, Siam, Toungoo, Koryo, Annan, Mongolia, the Queen of Aceh, Mataram, and the Kyushu Army all fell under the cold industrial machines wherever they went.

The British King Charles I in the west was assassinated indirectly because of him, and the Mughal emperor in the east also came to the end of his life ahead of schedule.

On the upper reaches of the Ganges, Agra, the capital of the Mughal Empire in India, where the emperor Shah Jahan ruled hundreds of millions of people.

However, Shah Jahan was defeated by the East India Company in the battle of Bangladesh, and got wet in the heavy rain, so he got seriously ill.

The eldest prince Darashiko knelt in front of Sha Jahan's bed, listening to Sha Jahan's last teaching.

The supreme emperor in the South Asian subcontinent was already withered due to serious illness and poor medical technology.

"You will be crowned the emperor of Mughal...you must...build the empire into an iron...monolithic...before...it is possible...to defeat outsiders..." Shah Jahan said his last words before he became seriously ill , there is no more movement.

Another great emperor star fell early.

Although the eldest prince Darashiko is not good at military affairs, Shah Jahan still bestowed the throne on this son according to the principle of primogeniture. If he can rely on his faith, tolerance and enlightened politics, he may be able to effectively solve the threat from outsiders .

The East India Company from beyond the sea has become stronger than ever!
It turned out that when the British were in charge of the East India Company, the influence of the East India Company was not as good as that of the Portuguese and the Netherlands. Now that the majority shareholder has become a Chinese, the Chinese Empire adjacent to the Mughals has let the East India Company It has become extremely terrifying, and even has its own armed forces.

This was never imagined before. The plateau, rainforest, and ocean separated the two eastern empires, so there shouldn't have been much conflict in the first place.

However, since the Kyushu Army occupied Toungoo, Malacca and other places, it has faced the Mughal Empire across the Bay of Bengal.

It is only one distance away from the Bay of Bengal. With the Nanyang Fleet and more and more galleons launched by the shipyard, it is really not difficult to cross the Bay of Bengal to support the East India Company.

The current Mughal Empire is facing an unprecedented threat. Once Shah Jahan died, the princes of various Indian states had different ideas. The heirs of the empire must use clever means to revive the entire empire and strengthen the wooing or control of each state.

Otherwise, the entire South Asian subcontinent will become a Chinese colony.

"Father, rest in peace here, I will not allow Chinese people to mess around on our territory."

The eldest prince Darashiko walked out of Shah Jahan's bedroom, and was immediately greeted by loyal ministers.

"Your Highness, how will His Majesty arrange the funeral?" the ministers asked eagerly.

"I will be in charge of state affairs, and my third brother will be in charge of the military," Darashiko said.

"How can that be done! If the imperial army falls into the hands of the third prince, civil strife will definitely be caused." The ministers said one after another.

"My father was probably scared by the Huaxia people. He thought that only Aurangzeb had the ability to lead the army and be able to stop the invasion of outsiders. It's ridiculous. Is it possible that I, Dalashiko, are better than many of us? Is that young brother?" The eldest prince sneered.

"The First Prince... No, His Majesty the Emperor has made great achievements and is wise and powerful. He will definitely be able to recover Bengal and expel the East India Company!" All the ministers who supported the First Prince flattered him.

There is almost no suspense for the eldest prince to ascend to the throne. They are the heroes of this dynasty, and they have achieved enlightenment and ascended to heaven alone.

"Is Aurangzeb still in Agra?" Darashiko asked.

"Yes, he was summoned by the late emperor, and he has not left Agra yet. It seems that he wants to take over the imperial army according to the late emperor's will." A minister said.

"He is wishful thinking. If he is allowed to be in charge of the army, there will be no place for me. You, lead the Royal City Guards to arrest Aurangzeb!" Darashiko directly ordered the chief guard.

"Obey, Your Majesty!" The head of the guard had wisely chosen to side with the eldest prince, and he immediately gathered his troops and rushed to arrest the third prince, Aurangzeb.

The second prince, Shashuja, was imprisoned in the Dhaka prison in Bangladesh. The fourth prince had almost no resistance, and the only one who could contend was the third prince, Aurangzeb.

As long as the third prince Aurangzeb is arrested, his throne will be safe and secure, and the empire can be completely built into a monolith.

Hundreds of imperial guards surrounded the palace where Aurangzeb lived. They arrested some ministers loyal to Aurangzeb and asked about the whereabouts of the third prince.

However, the ending disappointed them—the third prince Aurangzeb seemed to realize the malice the eldest prince had towards him, and fled Agra in advance without telling his loyal ministers.

"Trash, I can't even catch a single person!" The eldest prince Darashiko was furious.

"Your Majesty, the Third Prince left Agra ahead of time, obviously he was well prepared..." the chief guard said cautiously.

"On the day I ascend the throne, I will declare Aurangzeb a traitor. If anyone can offer up his head, I will reward him with 100 million rupees and a vast fief!" Darashiko said coldly.

The third prince Aurangzeb fled Agra, which was dangerous for him, with a team of cavalry, and he fled all the way to the Deccan Plateau.

He was the deputy king of the Deccan, leading the frontier troops of the Mughal Empire to fight in the southern part of the Indian peninsula.

The population of the Deccan Plateau is not as large as that of the affluent Ganges Plain, but the terrain here is complex and the folk customs are fierce. The imperial army on the Deccan Plateau is also one of the most elite legions.

Aurangzeb returned to the Deccan Plateau, and his military talents were supported by the Deccan Plateau Legion and the Deccan Princes of the Empire. Dalashiko presents a situation of North-South confrontation.

To the north is the Ganges Plain with a large population, and to the south is the Deccan Plateau with fierce folk customs. The two sides began to confront each other at the junction of the plateau and the plain to compete for the throne of the Mughal Empire.

Chinese spies have been lurking in Agra, the imperial capital of the Mughals. They learned of the passing of Shah Jahan immediately, and the two princes must have a fight.

This is an opportunity to split the Mughal Empire!

Intelligence officers immediately brought the news to Calcutta, the headquarters of the East India Company in the subcontinent.
