Eagle Byzantium
Chapter 43 Self-immolation, Badmiya
But before that, the spearmen of the Red Hand and Guardian Brigade who rushed to the riverside, stepped on the piles of enemy corpses, and witnessed the unspeakable "chariot assault" of the Sindh Army.
Rana and Malwa placed thirty tanks at the end of the battle line, presumably to use them as reserve troops.
But this kind of weapon, which is far behind the era of Gawain's military system, can only exist as a laughing stock.
Sind's chariot was made of rattan, with four pulling horses in front (until later, Gawain did not understand why the prince of Sind used these horses for cavalry). The spokes of the wheels made a sparkling sound during the rapid driving. There was a driver, two shield bearers and two shooters on them. These thirty chariots rushed towards the spearmen's phalanx.
Several of them hit the spear points of the large infantrymen stretched out by the spearmen. The horses screamed and fell down, and the chariots rolled and bounced. What surprised the Roman soldiers was that each of these chariots just looked at it from the front. It only carried five people, but once it was broken and destroyed, more than ten... or even twenty people rolled out!
It is not known how these soldiers climbed into it.
The rest of the chariots also hit the rocks with eggs, and the spearmen moved forward with their spears in strict steps, destroying them one by one, and all the soldiers who rolled out of them were penetrated and trampled over.
When the spearmen arrived at the stream, they were equally astonished to see their emperor drinking from the stream covered with corpses.
The armored cavalry and the Komaloi cavalry then swept and looted all the camps of the Sindh kings on the other side of the river, killing all the defeated soldiers who fled everywhere.
After Markianias walked into the Turkish king's camp, which was decorated with silver lamps and golden lintels, he found that the luggage and boxes inside were full of gems, gold, silver, and spices. Rare birds and animals were roaming around in the tent, and the Roman cavalry They pounced on them and robbed them crazily. Everyone hung their armor with treasures. The gold, silver and diamonds inlaid on the throne of the Earth King were all dug out with knives and stuffed wherever they could.
The shooting army also rushed in, carrying many small leather bags with them, and now they threw the cartridges and pellets all over the floor, opening the bags to contain gold sand and anything else of value.
In the end, the Roman soldiers, who had nothing to grab, killed all the remaining captive elephants, along with the previously dead ones, and cut off all their tusks as trophies.
"It's crazy, completely crazy, it's not like a soldier."
Markianias sighed, silently walked out of the noisy tent, sat on the ground, and said his evening prayers facing the distance. Then he took out the letter he carried with him and wrote a letter to Helena, who was also in another distant place, describing Based on what he saw and felt about the battle in India, “The corpses of brave princely soldiers and noble war elephants were strewn across the wilderness, their camps were also destroyed, and as many as 17,000 people died or were killed. The emperor ordered , the captured Tuwang slave They were all given some money to be sent away, but the priests, astrologers, cooks, and tax collectors around the King were considered useless and harmful by His Majesty, and 300 to 400 such prisoners were all executed. , Helena, I can tell you this, all the old rulers of Sindh were destroyed. They were destroyed so quickly and completely before firearms and the new military system. Only the jungle and disease there can resist your father. pace.”
In fact, Markianias's guess was correct.
After the Battle of Marka, the emperor first returned to the city of Hillstein. Half of the thousands of heads he had chopped off were built for viewing under the city, and the other half repeated his old tricks and threw them to the other side of the river like raindrops with trebuchets. In the Yisrael camp where he was recovering from his injuries.
Soon the desperate city of Hilstan surrendered. The emperor's troops rushed into the city and conducted another thorough looting: all the food and property stored in the warehouses and cellars were robbed. The emperor once again fulfilled his promise-except for the food turned over, all the goods were distributed to the soldiers.
On the other side of the river, Yisrael's spirit was also severely damaged. He encountered a truly murderous opponent. Even the arrival of the Gurkha mercenaries could not save his sharply declining fighting spirit - this prominent Khan actually demanded that everyone be killed. The army retreated, escaped before Gawain, and returned to the city of Multan again.
But Gawain did not attack Multan at all. He sacked Khirstan and pacified the city, then turned back and headed south along the Indus River, aiming for the seaport city of Tata in Sindh.
This is different from the plan he originally planned with Saint Sister, but adapting to circumstances has always been Gawain's strength.
However, within a few days, the Tata City held by the Samirai tribe, whose men were almost extinct, could no longer resist Gawain's troops.
The nineteen Samirai warriors who had fled from the battlefield of Marka decided not to escape this time. They opened the city gate, shouted the glory of their family and rushed towards the emperor's army until they were all killed.
The emperor then expressed his sincere condolences to them, buried the nineteen corpses together in the woodland outside Tata City, and erected a stone tablet.
After entering the city, the emperor's soldiers saw women, children and elderly people from the Samirai family who had committed suicide inside and outside the mosque. Blood was flowing down the steps like a waterfall...
Five days later, the city of Garter, where Prince Rana originally lived, was also captured. Before the city fell, Rana's wife Badmia, who was also said to be the most beautiful woman in Sindh, and all the female relatives requested to die for her husband who died in the war. , expressing that they would never succumb to the power of the Roman emperor, because they learned that Stephen Gawain was a world-famous slut. , lecherous people - then they dressed in the most beautiful gauze and the most gorgeous jewelry, lined up into a cave filled with dry firewood and kerosene on the cliff in the city, Badmia walked solemnly in At the end, when they were all gathered, the door of the cave was locked and the fire was lit. They prayed in the flames until they were all buried in the sea of fire.

In later generations, in the civilized Sindh region, Brahmin monks also collectively created the epic opera "Immolate Badmia," praising Badmia's heroic sacrifice for her husband and calling this "the most basic duty of a Sindhi woman." "Virtue", and dramatized how Gawain defiled five hundred local girls when he invaded the Sindh area, and proposed that "Once Badmia cherishes her death, she will probably be killed by this Varyag." The emperor’s poisonous hand!”
But after the opera came out, even a Crescent pilgrim judge named Bai Leban in the city of Ghaznavids wrote an article to fiercely ridicule and criticize. Bai Leban said, "If there is still a person in this world who would regard ignorance as a virtue, If there is a national existence, then I believe they are the Sindhi people. The Samirai women and children who committed suicide in Tata City were originally normal people. It was precisely because they guarded Tata City for too long that they were poisoned by the Sindhi people's ideas. To.”
Gawain, who captured the city in the Sind region and made the soldiers rich and well-supplied, welcomed envoys from the Kingdom of Ghadawala and the Kingdom of Chauhan in northern India in the city.
