Timur is ready to go, and after two years of preparation, raising 800,000 troops and 7 years of food and grass, intending to attack Ming Dynasty . Ming Chengzu Zhu Di was also waiting for the battle, organizing defense day and night to resist the attack of Timur Empire .
However, in 1405, 69-year-old Timur suddenly died of illness! The plan to cross Tianshan from Central Asia and attack Ming Dynasty was just stranded. Zhu Di, the Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty, also breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that it was a false alarm.
So the question is, why did the plan to expedition the Ming Dynasty in the Eastern Expedition to the Ming Dynasty run out of place as soon as Timur died? It turned out that the Timur Empire, like the Ming Dynasty, also caused an internal strife due to the struggle for the throne. The root cause is that grandfather passed the throne to grandsons, which led to the dissatisfaction of the uncles. By such a coincidence, where can you make sense?
1. The Timur Empire took the same script in the early stages of the Ming Dynasty.
Timur has 4 sons on the book, and the eldest, Han Jieer, is of course his direct successor. This situation is similar to that of the Ming Dynasty at the same time. The eldest son of Zhu Yuanzhang, , Zhu Biao, was the successor of the throne that Zhu Yuanzhang had cultivated for many years.
The result was that the world did not go as expected, and Zhu Biao died young, so Zhu Yuanzhang made Zhu Biao's son Zhu Yunwen as the crown prince. The same is true in the Timur Empire. After Timur's eldest son died early, Timur appointed Hanjie's son pier Mahema as his successor.
Kepier Ma Heima has 3 uncles, can they agree? Therefore, after Timur passed away, Pier Mahema could not suppress his uncles at all. A war for the throne broke out in the Timur Empire.
At that time, Pier Mahema was in Afghanistan , the nobles in the Timur Empire , actually made Harry, another grandson of Timur, a new monarch. The two sides started fighting like this. As a result, Pier Ma Heima was defeated, it was really hard to explain. After Pier Ma Heima was killed, his uncles were not calm, especially the fourth uncle Shaharu . Without saying a word, he raised an army and threatened to avenge his nephew. Shaharu has the wind of his father, and he is very strong in combat. He defeated Haril in minutes and seized the throne. In this way, the new monarch of the Timur Empire became Shaharu, the fourth son of Timur.
How do you feel that the plot is the same as the basic - in the Ming Dynasty? In the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang passed the throne to his grandson Zhu Yunwen, which resulted in the fourth son Zhu Di rebelling, and eventually the fourth son Zhu Di seized the throne. Maybe when God wrote the program, he copied and pasted this paragraph directly into Central Asia, right?
After such trouble, Timur Empire was severely damaged. How could we continue to expedition to the Ming Dynasty? After that, Shaharu managed the Timur Empire in an orderly manner, and traded with the Ming Dynasty very frequently, and both sides entered a period of relatively stable, prosperous and development.
However, after Shaharu's death, the Timur Empire did not follow the script, and his descendants began to fight against each other because of their great throne. Since then, the Timur Empire has declined. In 1507 AD, Genghis Khan's eldest son Shuchi descendant Xibani Khan captured Samarkand. He led the Uzbek army to establish Bukhara Khanate , officially announcing the demur empire.
Although the empire was destroyed, there were still many descendants of Timur, and they still had a lot of military power in their hands. What kind of miracles can these people create?
2. The Mughal Empire, the last dynasty of India.
India is a very magical place, with a very long civilization here and the birthplace of Buddhism. However, there were few unified and powerful dynasties here in history, and they were basically in a state of many princes.
When Timur was still alive, India's Delhi Sultanate was once defeated by Timur. However, Timur only expanded his sphere of influence to northern India, and the Delhi Sultanate was still surviving.
After the fall of the Timur Empire, the descendants of Timur led their troops to wander around. One of them was called Babul . He felt that there was no hope of restoring his country in Central Asia, so he led his army south to enter India. In 1526 AD, Babur established the Mughal Empire in India, continuing the myth of the Timur Empire.
Babur felt that instead of going north to continue to compete with Uzbeks for the river area, it would be better to go south and bully the sultanate of Delhi that was as dangerous as a slum. The same is true. The Sultanate of Delhi is an empty strait, and the following are all separatist states of vassalism among all the princes. Therefore, after Babur came, he easily solved the Delhi Sultanate and also annexed most of the local princes, truly making the Mughal Empire a legal empire of India.
Babul was an alien Mongolian after all. In order to take care of the national sentiment of the local people, he adopted the method of using seals to control seals. That is, obedient Indian lords were built in northern India, and they were allowed to manage the territory assigned to them. The Mughal Empire only needs to manage these Indian lords well.
This strategy is very effective. Under the rule of the Mughal Empire, the tribes of India gradually embarked on the route of national unity. But it’s a pity that Babur passed away without seeing the unification of India. The Mughal Empire truly unifies India was done during the reign of Babur’s grandson Abak.
At the peak of the Mughal Empire, it occupied the entire South Asian subcontinent and Afghanistan territory, with a land of 4.5 million square kilometers of land and is very strong. The Mughal Empire, the Ming Dynasty at that time, the Safavid Dynasty in Iran, and the Ottoman Empire in the Middle East, and called the four major empires in Asia.
However, by the early 18th century, with the invasion of European colonists, the Mughal Empire also declined. So the question is, why was the Mughal Empire called the last dynasty of India?
3. The British colonists became the executioner who ended the Mughal Empire.
At the beginning of the 18th century, the ruling class of the Mughal Empire was in a state of competing with the local Marathas in India. At this time, the British colonists set foot on the territory of the South Asian subcontinent.
At that time, the monarch of the Mughal Empire had no power. The governors from all over the country were in a state of separatist independence, and the Afghans also began to make a fuss about independence, and the Marathas gradually became stronger. The Mughal Empire very much needed a time to adjust itself.
But at this critical moment, the British are still here! Taking advantage of your illness and killing you is a traditional British custom. Since the industrial revolution , these British guys have not done a few human affairs in the world.
After the Seven Years War , Britain defeated France and thus got the opportunity to formally invade the Mughal Empire.
1757, the British took the lead in taking over the prosperous Bangladesh Province. Then they began to use this place as a military base, continuously sending troops from the sea to the South Asian subcontinent to carry out work to invade India.
The Mughal Empire itself is in a state of fragmentation. Before they can deal with their own problems, they are invaded by foreign enemies. Therefore, the Mughal Empire had no strength to compete with the British.
The result is obvious. The Mughal Empire has been losing its cities and land, gradually making the entire India a colony of the British. In 1849, the Mughal Empire lost its dominance over India and became a tool of British rule.
1857, the ruling class of the Mughal Empire carried out its last resistance, but unfortunately it still ended in failure. From then on, India was the British, and the Mughal Empire, the last dynasty in India, bid farewell to the historical stage.
Summary: Compared with the British, the Mongolians are still OK.
This is the basic concept of Indians , otherwise Indians would not follow the Mongols to resist the British invasion. No matter what the Mongols said, they had ruled India for more than 300 years, and they had long been integrated with the locals.
Moreover, the rule of the Mughal Empire greatly supported the development of Indian local forces, so it received the support of Indian blockbusters. This is an important reason why the Mughal Empire can stand for more than 300 years.
In contrast, the British have only ruled India for 90 years. Over the past 90 years, they have made the Indians complain. After all, they never regard this place as their home, so there is only plunder and exploitation here.
Even when Britain left in 1947, it also created a result of India-Pakistan partition of , which made so far, China, India and Pakistan have been inextricably linked due to border territorial issues. You think they are so bad that they have exploited others for 90 years, and they still can’t let others live before leaving.
