The Ming Dynasty: The most ruthless imperial grandson, Old Zhu begged me not to kill him.

Chapter 517: Post-War Settlement
Now that Lan Yu has finally left, this is the best news they could hope for.

"That damned fellow has finally left. Where are Prince Dobuakiri's troops? How long will it take them to arrive?"

The general guarding the city then recounted the conflict between Udo of the Timurid Khanate and Prince Dob Achiri.

When the emperor of the Delhi Sultanate learned of this, his face turned extremely ugly, and he said angrily.

"These two good-for-nothings! We sent them to provide support, but neither of them made a move!"

"Well, that's what happened. Lan Yu escaped from this place, but the two of them ended up fighting each other. Does he think my Delhi Sultanate has too many troops?!"

No one expected that Lan Yu would trick them before leaving.

Dobuaqiri was extremely conflicted. He had originally wanted to make a good impression in this battle, but who could have imagined that things would turn out this way?

The Delhi Sultanate suffered heavy losses in this battle, a devastating blow.

I don't know how long it will take to fully recover.

At this moment, Udo stepped forward and looked at the emperor of the Delhi Sultanate before him, saying...

"The crisis in your Delhi Sultanate has now been resolved!"

"Don't forget what you promised our Khan!"

“Everywhere in the capital of the Delhi Sultanate, except for the royal palace, belongs to our Timurid Khanate!”

Upon hearing this, the crowd erupted in uproar.

The emperor of the Delhi Sultanate also looked extremely grim. He had indeed agreed to this, because he thought they wouldn't be able to hold out for much longer.

Who would have thought that when Timur's army came to their land, it not only failed to play a significant role but also repeatedly caused more trouble than it helped, which made him very dissatisfied.

“That’s right. I promised you that if you didn’t have the money to support us, everything in the entire Delhi Sultanate capital, except for the royal palace, would belong to you!”

"But don't forget that you didn't play much of a role in this battle. On the contrary, you caused our Delhi Sultanate to suffer heavy losses. You have to give us an explanation for that!"

Udo frowned upon hearing this.

Somewhat disapproval was brewing in his mind. Did these people intend to deny it? Thinking this, he snorted coldly.

"You all seem to want me to deny it!"

"Don't forget that the Delhi Sultanate's army suffered extremely heavy losses this time. With your current strength, you are no match for us at all!"

"If our Great Khan finds out about this, and our Timurid Khanate's army marches south in force, how long do you think you can hold out?"

The emperor of the Delhi Sultanate was somewhat frightened upon hearing this. The Delhi Sultanate had suffered extremely heavy losses after so many battles, and with rebellions breaking out in various places, it was in grave danger. Therefore, the most important thing now was to reorganize the army and restore its strength. Continuing to fight would not be a good thing for them.

Seeing this, he looked at Dobu Achiri beside him.

“My son, what they say makes sense. Our army has suffered extremely heavy losses. If they attack now, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold out for long!”

"They're all allies anyway, and they've suffered considerable losses this time as well. So, we don't need to worry about these trivial matters!"

“As long as we remain the royal family of the Delhi Sultanate, we will surely be able to defeat the enemy again!” Dobu Achiri frowned upon hearing this.

He sensed that his father was somewhat different. He had been a little timid before, probably because Lan Yu's two consecutive attacks on their capital had scared him away.

The current situation feels somewhat like believing everything you hear.

At this moment, he snorted coldly.

"Do you really think I don't know that your Timur Khanate is in no better shape these days?"

We failed to capture Lan Yu, and it seems you didn't gain much advantage in your battle against Li Wenzhong either.

"Your main forces are all engaged in fighting Li Wenzhong in the east. Do you have any other troops that you've transferred down?"

Udo's face turned somewhat grim upon hearing this. He had to admit that what Dobuaqili said was indeed true; they really couldn't spare any more troops in a short period of time.

However, after this battle, the Delhi Sultanate's army not only suffered heavy losses in terms of troops and manpower, but its fighting spirit was also severely damaged.

If they can seize this opportunity, it could be a chance for them.

"Don't forget that your army has suffered heavy losses, while I still have a considerable number of elite troops under my command. These are the elite cavalry of our Timur Khanate!"

"If things really turn sour then, my 50,000 cavalry can just like Lan Yu did, turning your Delhi Sultanate upside down!"

Dobuaqiri frowned upon hearing this. Their losses were already significant enough; any further losses would have unimaginable consequences.

The emperor, standing to the side, was extremely anxious. He did not want to suffer such losses again. Thinking of this, he looked at Dobu Aqili with a face full of dissatisfaction.

"That's enough, isn't it embarrassing enough?"

"We agreed to this, so what's the point of going back on our word now?"

"Alright, I've made up my mind. The alliance between my Delhi Sultanate and the Timurid Khanate cannot be broken!"

"If we were to clash with the Timurid Khanate again, it would inevitably cause our already limited strength to be further depleted, which would be a truly terrifying thing!"

Dobuaqiri felt extremely helpless upon hearing this. At this moment, he gritted his teeth and looked at Udo as if he wanted to devour him.

Udo smiled, looking at the emperor of the Delhi Sultanate with great satisfaction, and then cast a provocative glance at Dobu Achiri.

Subsequently, Timur's cavalry burned, killed, and looted throughout the capital of the Delhi Sultanate, causing severe damage and turning the city into a scorched wasteland.

Meanwhile, Lan Yu led his army to seize the northeastern part of the Delhi Sultanate as his base.

When he received this news, he was very surprised.

"No wonder the Timurid Khanate was so eager to send troops this time; it turns out there was such a deal between the two countries!"

"Unfortunately, such a deal is far too foolish. The Sultan of Delhi has lost his mind. Isn't this like asking a tiger for its skin? It won't benefit them at all!"
