Ten days later, Mir Ali Khan was on the move.

The rich life of Hyderabad made him unable to leave it. When he learned that it was the Truchen who came to attack, his heart was shocked.

"This is a force that even the great Durani Khan, the powerful Maratha League, and the aggressive British people cannot defeat. Can I do this with just this little man?"

In fact, if other forces attack Tanobra, he might not pay attention to it, but since he is a Truchen, he has to consider one thing.

"They obviously also learned about Tanobra from our captives, and were preparing to siege here for me to move, just as I had attracted the Lord of Hyderabad before"

"It is said that they have taken down even the stronger Guangzhou City and Manila City. Hyderabad will definitely not be able to defend it, but they are unwilling to lose this fertile land in vain."

"Well, just give up this city"

So he arranged only a few people to escort their families north, preparing to take them back to the Beilu-chistern Plateau from the northern oasis, and at the same time reported the message to the real Great Khan of the Baloch people in Quetta. If Hunice knew about it, he would also report the situation to Kandahar.

The Governor of Kandahar is Durani's youngest son Ibn. Although his interest in Kabul is far greater than that in the Indus River Basin, if he can completely surrender the entire Beilu branch, I believe he will be moved.

After Mir Ali Khan sent his family away, he immediately gathered all the tribal cavalry south of Sadigabad, and then walked west along the Hyderabad to Karachi.

At this time, he had learned that the Truchens had been stationed in Lulihabd in front, so he thought to himself: "According to the news, the enemy chief Toure personally led a brigade to the north to surround Tanobula, while the remaining two brigades remained in Lulihabad, obviously to block me."

"I simply run straight through the wasteland and pass through the Dalavot Valley. If it is fast, I can quickly arrive at Tanobra. When I arrive at the Dalavot Valley, I can watch there for a while and see if the soldiers of Hunis and the Fourth Prince arrive"

(Dalawater, a river valley not far from the northeast of Tanobra, where several rivers meet, where the Dalawater Reservoir is located in later generations)

The fourth prince refers to the Governor of Kandahar at this time, Durani's youngest son Ibn.

"It is easy for the Truchens to take down the outer city of Tanobula, but it is not easy to take down the Stone City. The Three Hundred Khartis of the Stone City have already been loyal to us to the three gods. We have arranged five hundred elite troops there and stored food and grass for three months. We should be able to defend before the arrival of Hunis and the fourth prince's troops"

So, his 10,000 tribal cavalry left Hyderabad and rushed into the desert soon after he ran towards the Dalavot Valley in the northwest direction. He arrived there in a day and a night, and then built a solid camp there.

Tanobra.

Half a month has passed, and the three camps of Toure are still stationed near the three gates of the castle. Although everything has developed in the direction he imagined, they only carried 20 days of food and grass, and it would be a good idea if they dragged it down.

On this day, he convened Dengduke and Huriji to have a meeting.

In the past few days, Huslen and others have also investigated around and attended the meeting today, so he will report it first.

"Your Highness, generals, the situation is not good. Now there are only Mir Ali Khan's army, Quetta and Kandahar, who have arrived near Tanobra, are nowhere to be seen"

"How did you judge it?"

"Your Highness, Quetta, Kandahar's enemies have only two ways to reach here. One is to walk south along the north and south towards the valley in the plateau. Once they are dispatched, they will definitely have at least 20,000 cavalry. With so many troops, it is impossible to take a small path. You can get water at any time by walking on the Hubu Valley."

"Then it is to go southeast from Quetta to the plateau, enter the Indus Plain, then go all the way south, approach the vicinity of Hyderabad and then turn to the west"

"Our people went north along the Hub River, and at the farthest point we arrived in Huzdal, without any movement"

"The same is true in the Oasis area"

"Does Quetta ignore Mir Ali's request for help?"

"This..., Your Highness, according to the confession of the tribe chief we captured in Huzdal, the Governor of Kandahar is Durani's youngest son Ibn, and Kandahar is Durani's old nest and a gathering place for the South Pashtun people. After Durani came to power, the ministry changed its ethnic group to Durani people"

"After Ibn's eldest brother Timur came to power, the country was immediately divided into several large pieces, each of which had the intention of being unjust, and they all wanted to take Timur and replace him, so they were naturally secretly accumulating strength"

"For Ibn, since Timur took away 20,000 elite tribal cavalry when he moved the capital to Kabul, it was actually 20,000 households, which greatly reduced the Dulani people near Kandahar. If he wanted to make a difference, he had to win over the Baloch people south of Kandahar"

"And Mir Ali Khan is one of the largest tribal leaders of the Beilu Branch and has always been loyal to him. If he sits alone and fails to save him, he will completely lose the hearts of the entire Beilu Branch wasteland"

"As for Quetta's Hunis, he was the leader of the largest tribe of the Beilu branch. They were the masters of the Hub River Basin. Mir Ali Khan only came to capture Hyderabad according to Ibn's order. If Mir Ali's troops were destroyed, it would not be a bad thing for Hunis"

"No", Toure waved his hand, "As far as I know, although the Baloch people are a mess of sand, barely dormant under the Afghans, they will still unite if they face a common strong enemy, so I guess they will definitely come"

"The reason why they haven't come now seems to be not fools. They know that we don't carry much food and grass, obviously waiting for the day when our food and grass are cut off"

"But they are also subject to this. With the ability of their robber tribe, they cannot carry a lot of food and grass. At most, they are about the same as us. It is still far from Kandahar to get here, and it will take about ten days to go"

"In addition, Karachi City has been standing at the mouth of the Indus River for eight years. As the most powerful tribe around, they will not be unaware of the city's defense, but they are not afraid to take action due to the power of our country."

Huriji felt a little nervous, "Your Majesty, do you mean they still want to hit Karachi City?"

"Not bad," Toure nodded, "If you don't say anything else, just surrounding Karachi City so that our troops can't get food and grass supplies, they will achieve their goal. There is also a wasteland near Karachi City. Once the momentum is wrong, they can also enter the wasteland at any time and leave."

"Then us?"

Toure looked at his secretary and staff officer Yue Bing.

"Xiao Yue tell me, how should we act?"

Yue Bing said: "First of all, although we only carried 20 days of food, there are still aquatic plants here. At least the horses have no shortage of water. The five-day food is mainly for soldiers."

"We mainly use firearms to fight the enemy, and do not need to spend a lot of effort to fight. Therefore, the Ministry of Justice recommends that starting from now on, each person's ration will be reduced by half and then return to normal in the war. There will be no need for training in these few days. In this way, it can be extended for five days, which will add up to ten days."

"In ten days, the enemy will come no matter what. If you don't come again, you will definitely not come."

"According to the Ministry of Justice, since Mir Ali Khan actually abandoned Hyderabad and its surrounding plains, this caused trouble for Quetta and Kandahar"

"For them, Mir Ali Khan is just the first step for them to test the enemy in the east, namely the Maratha and Sikhs. If the enemy tolerate their existence, then in the future, people near Kandahar and Quetta will obviously migrate to the oasis in large quantities. Who would like to drink the northwest wind on the barren plateau every day?"

"The Indus River Basin is the basis for establishing a career. With a large amount of food, Ibn will definitely think of this if he wants to compete with his elder brother."

"Mir Ali Khan is Ibn's person, and this is beyond refusal, but the Hunis of Quetta obviously did not completely surrender to the Durani people. As Mir Ali Khan withdrew from Hyderabad, the Sikhs in the north were blocked by the Queen of Durga, and the Maratha people in the east did not seem useful"

"So, it's a question of who will enter the fertile Indus Plain"

"If I were Ibn, I would promise Hunis that as long as he took Karachi, he would get the entire Nanbeilu wasteland, and he would come to rescue Mir Ali himself. It would not be easy to reach an agreement"

"For us, if we want to stabilize the lower reaches of the Indus, we must attract the Baloch people and Dulani people in large numbers to annihilate them. For Ibn, this is the case. If we want to gain a foothold in Hyderabad, we must completely eliminate our living forces, otherwise we will not be able to stand firm."

"Also, Ibn was Dulani's most loyal young son. He attacked the Mughal Empire and took his other sons with him when the Persian Empire, so Ibn was left to guard the rear. Therefore, the Afghans did not participate in the war with our country in previous battles. He was only in his twenties and had never seen our country's ability with his own eyes"

"I will definitely fight to the death, otherwise it will be impossible to compete with Kabul for the throne. It is said that the grassland tribe is respected by strength, and it is more prominent here. The leader of a robber tribe, who has a little timid heart, has long been swallowed up by others."

"Also, although Karachi City only has 1,500 Marines, its walls are tall and strong. Neither the Durani nor the Balochi people have the means to attack. They can only rely on ants to attack the city. It is more difficult to win than climb to the sky, unless..."

Toure nodded, "Unless the British intervene, although Hyderabad does not allow the British to enter the Indus River Basin on the surface, they can completely enter through the low-road wasteland and Rajasthan. The so-called non-permitment is also a cover, because the British's large ships cannot enter the Indus River at all."

"But if the British want to assist the Balochs in taking over Karachi City, they can only use maritime support. However, our country now has two squadrons in Karachi Port, and I really can't think of any reason why the British have to take the initiative to jump out and provoke our country"

"Most of all, the artillery they cast in Rajasthan has been secretly transported to Kandahar, but they must be small cannons. Otherwise, Kandahar is still thousands of miles away from here, and it is impossible to transport the heavy cannons for less than a month."
