Chapter 1115 Stormwind
The people gathered in the eastern part of the Indian subcontinent in the Ming Dynasty could no longer be called Buddhists, not even civilian armed forces.

Because they have officers and soldiers, although the military level is uneven, they are indeed an army.

The Buddhists in the mainland of Ming Dynasty and Japan have not set off yet, but the number of Buddhists gathered in Bihar Province has reached [-]—even more than the troops gathered by the Bangladeshi rebels.

The noble leaders of the rebel army were all stupid, they couldn't understand what Master Tianshi was doing here, and they didn't dare to ask.

When monk Tianshi came with more than 300 people, they didn't dare to ask. Now that there are more than [-] people, they dare not ask.

The crucial turning point occurred in the last month of the eighth year of Wanli, when Master Tianshi's Buddhist army underwent a qualitative change, because the Minister of Western Affairs, Yin Zhengmao, finally got his head around and planned to accept them and give them some help within his ability.

Of course, it may also be that Yin Zhengmao felt that Tian Shi was too unqualified as a commander.

Qi Jimei from the Eastern Military Mansion came to teach the eight Arhats, which were actually eight generals, and they were controlled by Ava Wang Mengshao and Puyao Wang Mang Yacha who had the most combat experience in the past.

The name of Mang Yasha, the king of Prome, is a transliteration. In fact, according to the habit of naming people in Ming Dynasty, Mengshao should also be called Mangshao, but there is no way. The name Mengshao was given by himself, and Chen Mu is the witness of this name , so Mengshao can call himself whatever he likes.

These two guys known as kings were Mang Yinglong's gravediggers, they led troops to defeat Mang Yinglong's main force and returned to Ming Dynasty.

The first thing that Ming did after fully ruling Toungoo was to take back their power, bestow more treasures and officials, and promised them two generations of wealth. The third generation will move to the thirteen provinces in order to successfully achieve the handover of officials.

For Meng Shao, who may be the biggest star fan of this era, this is exactly what he wants.

Therefore, as soon as he heard that Master Tianshi recruited monks and soldiers to India to aid the war, he immediately took Mang Yacha's line of fire into the temple to pay homage, and took a boat to support the construction of the empire.

In a very short period of time, the Wanzi Army completed the transformation of a large number of stragglers into traditional troops.

With a regular commander in chief, the situation is different.

Each of the eight arhats governed a different number of temple abbots, and each temple abbot governed the monks under his command, and merchants from Fujian and Guangxi managed the luggage, forming a complete management system.

During this period, the monk Tianshi scared away the Mughal army entering Bihar.

Mughal's intelligence is lagging behind, and monk Tianshi's reinforcements have come too fast and too many. The last time the army was defeated, the news came back that the [-] local rebels had [-] to [-] Ming troops to help.

According to this information, the Afghan and Turkic aristocrats of the Mughals, eager to make meritorious service to curry favor with Akbar, urgently summoned [-] local miscellaneous troops to Bihar again.

Originally, the soldiers of the nobles of the Bengali rebels were local miscellaneous troops, generally weaker than the Turkic cavalry and the northern cavalry, but Akbar’s army had not yet arrived, and the troops assembled by the local nobles and chieftains were actually similar in strength to the rebels. They can also recognize themselves and know that the monks from the Ming Dynasty are not of the same mind as the rebels.

If you want to defeat them one by one, you must first work together to deter and defeat the rebels. Once the monks of the Ming Dynasty have no profit, they will inevitably retreat.

Even if they don't retreat, they still have [-] troops left to meet the monks of the Ming Dynasty, and their ideals are very fulfilling.

But when he arrived in Bihar, there were still more than 2 Bangladeshi rebels to face, but the Ming army had increased to more than [-]... Who would dare to come here?

The local aristocrats not only failed to deter the rebels, but actually emboldened the rebels. More importantly, Meng Shao felt that they were vulnerable.

The eight generals hit it off and led the monks to advance westward, and the rebels behind immediately followed.

From beginning to end, Monk Tianshi did not reach any agreement with the rebel leader, but the two sides had a tacit understanding that did not need to be stated.

Monk Tianshi used Buddhism to overthrow a city, set up several temples, took away some believers who could fight, and then continued westward; the rebel nobles followed closely to occupy these cities, and did nothing to everything that Monk Tianshi owned. Gather up the remaining land, entrust the remaining land, leave the nobles to take care of them, and more people follow closely behind Abbot Tianshi.

They marched westward along the Ganges River all the way. The offensive was very difficult, but they were always marching slowly. By the coming winter moon in the ninth year of Wanli, they had successively occupied twelve cities westward along the Ganges River in Bihar Province.

This speed of attack was almost as fast as Akbar's battle to conquer the rebels.

Such a result is not caused by the monks' high combat effectiveness, but rather by the low combat effectiveness of the monks. After all, they are not the first-rate army. Teach them how to fight.

Only Qi Jimei thinks it's not bad, others such as Li Xi, Zhang Yuanxun and others think that Monk Tianshi is extremely ridiculous... Why do you want to attack one city after another, and use the method of Spring and Autumn and Warring States to decide the outcome?
There is a Liujia battleship and more than 200 merchant ships protecting the route. Wouldn't it be good to directly enter the capital by boat?

But looking at the impatience, the Western Army obeyed Yin Zhengmao's order and did not interfere with any actions of the monk Tianshi, but watched the Mughal army retreat steadily.

They didn't really look at it, because the order from the cabinet minister Beiyang came.

The most disturbing thing about Zhang Juzheng is that there is no iron, so after a letter, [-] banner troops from the Siyang Army Mansion scattered into Bihar, Bangladesh and other places to survey and draw maps, search for iron ore, and instructed merchants to cooperate with the Bangladeshi rebels. trade, while negotiating borders with it.

Unilateral borders.

Bengal and half of Bihar belonged to the rebels, but the land further west did not belong to them.

It's not that Yin Zhengmao wants to take advantage of people's danger at this time. To be honest, the rebel army has nothing worth taking advantage of, mainly because of the edict sent by the emperor from China... a lot of county kings and auxiliary generals from Shanxi coming.

Everyone is looking for him to seal the country. The official documents of the imperial court have written that as much land as they used to have in the Central Plains, they will be given as much land as they come here; Just divide them.

Master Yin almost wanted to cry but had no tears.

Merchants, businessmen, monks, monks, and even before he had time to complain to the court, the county king and the generals of the Fuguo came again, and this was still out of his control.

The Indian subcontinent experienced a major enfeoffment at the beginning of the ninth Wanli period. The princes who should be enfeoffed were enfeoffed; the generals who should be enfeoffed were also enfeoffed.

In the end, the Mughal army and the Bengali rebels who were sandwiched between the two sides were left in a daze: These people divided our land, so what should we eat and drink?
