In late autumn and early winter, a grand reward meeting was held in Kabul.

Khan Palace is beautifully decorated.

Looking at the huge chandeliers wrapped in a layer of gold foil, the thirty-year-old Timur sweating couldn't help but feel scared.

"I almost became Mahmoud's property"

He murmured in his heart.

But he was still a little uneasy, "Kunduz, Mazarishi Sharif is still in the hands of the Truchen people, I don't know when it will be taken back"

This reward meeting was specially held for Sadiq and Inale. When we thought that these two were from Gilzai, Timur's face twitched slightly.

But he had to do that, without the Gilzai people, the whole of Kabul would be Mahmoud now.

Therefore, the reward meeting is also a meeting to redistribute territory and wealth.

In addition to Sadik and Inal, there is also his younger brother Ibn in the hall. Although he couldn't help but disgust when he saw Ibn's figure in the past, he now looks much more friendly.

Although he suffered heavy losses in this siege of Kabul, he finally defeated Mahmoud. Not only that, he also captured a large number of prisoners.

This time, Mahmood was dispatched in full swing, bringing a total of 100,000 troops. In addition, the people they brought along the way were as many as 150,000, of which 50,000 elite soldiers died in battle, and at most 20,000 people fled.

But more than 60,000 prisoners were captured!

Among them are 30,000 saints.

These people will become one of the property that the reward will be allocated.

They will become slaves without exception.

Everyone was kneeling on the thick carpet, and there was a large disc made of silver in front of each person. The disc slowed down all kinds of food, and a group of dancers with their belly buttons were dancing to cheer them up.

Timur thought through everything. After this fierce war, he must rely on the Durani people with all his might, otherwise no one would guarantee that such a tragic incident would happen again.

He was going to keep Ibn in Ghazni, and the Dulani people in Kandahar moved large numbers to Kabul-Ghazni. As for Kandahar, he was going to enfeoff it to Inal—by his words, near Peshawar

The Truchen man has appeared, it is not safe there, I believe he will agree.

Sadik will continue to stay north of Kabul to resist the Truqins. In order to repay his merits, he is preparing to give him half of the captives.

Everything is well arranged. From Timur's perspective, they must agree.

As for the Peshawar area in the east, he was about to give up. After this battle, he no longer had the energy to visit the east and just guard the Khyber Pass. As for whether the place was occupied by the Sikhs or the Truchens.

Just casual.

He must spend at least five years to cultivate and nourish, otherwise he will not have the spare energy to expand.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but lift the dark red glass in his hand.

"Everyone"

His voice was still calm and steady, still revealing the authority of Shah, the Afghan Empire.

"This battle will defeat the abominable pagan Mahmoud, you will make great contributions, and the great Durani Khan is here, I will give you a cup"

"Sweat!"

Everyone was about to raise their glasses when there was a burst of shouts outside the hall gate.

This is the voice of the black eunuch general of Timur Khan. When he heard this sharp voice, Timur couldn't help frowning, but nowadays, the empire is still full of dangers, and something might happen everywhere on the border at any time, so he could only call him

Come in.

"What's the matter?"

"Sweat..."

The eunuch general manager looked around.

Timur Khan cursed: "It's all my own people, what's the point?!"

The eunuch chief supervisor had to say: "Khan, the news just now has happened again in the west!"

"West? Is it Mahmoud..."

"No, the Persians invaded! The Shah Aga Khan personally led a hundred thousand troops to attack Herat, not only occupied Herat, but also captured the remaining Mahmoud who had retreated there in a hurry and killed her.

Mahmoud”

"Ah?!"

Timur Khan was stunned.

Although Mahmoud retreated, he returned from a crushing defeat and could only lie temporarily after returning to Herat. It would not have been harmful to himself in the past five to ten years, but if it was a Persian invasion, it would be different

Now!

Aga Khan, that was the powerful emperor who won half of the Ottoman Empire!

The reward plan that had already reached the mouth was immediately collected.

"Everyone, the abominable Persians have been called. It is urgent. We must guard Kabul!"

Everyone's expressions were terrified.

In that tragic siege of Kabul, Timur Khan's elite also suffered heavy losses, and the original 20,000 elite cavalry was only about 10,000. In order to strengthen the defensive power of Kabul City, he made Sadiq for the first time.

Nalle brought five thousand men into the city to participate in defense.

But what should I do if a large number of prisoners? Timur Khan said to Inale: "Let the prisoners be escorted to Peshawar area for temporary settlement."

....

Baghland.

This was originally the home of Sadik Khan, but now it has become the headquarters of the Truqin Army.

When I learned that Aga Khan had finally taken action, Qitad smiled and said to everyone: "The time to completely solve Afghanistan has finally come. Everyone, it's time to take action"

Asina asked, "Father, what if Sadiq doesn't listen to us?"

Qitad smiled and said, "Silly, his troops are all in the Bagland Oasis, and his parents, wife and children are also in our hands. Moreover, three thousand of the five thousand troops he brought into Kabul City are our people.

,If he rebels, I will completely destroy the clan just like the Qing Dynasty dealing with the Junggar people!”

"Also, I have promised to appoint him as the Khan of the Karlu Khan after this battle. If he refuses such good conditions, he will only destroy himself."

"If he really rebels, then we will include the Kunduz-Bagran-Kabul area in the hands of the empire and govern according to the county system"

After saying that, Bayar looked at Bayar, and Bayar nodded: "Your Majesty, according to our estimates, the population of Afghanistan at this time is about two million, more than 400,000 to more than 500,000, of which about 300,000 people in Pashtun

The Baloch people had about 100,000 accounts, and the Hazara people had about 50,000 accounts"

"The rest of Persians, Uzbek, Tajik about 50,000 entries"

"The Pashtuns are divided into Herats, Durani, and Girzai. The original Durani were called Kandahar, because the former Shah Durani rose here, so they were named after their name.

As the name of the tribe, when Durani was still alive, the Gilzai people and the Herat also called themselves Durani people”

"But when he dies, the Herats and Girzai people have returned to their original names"

"When Governor Mahmoud Khan of Herat attacked Kabul, he almost drew all the young and strong tribes, bringing 100,000 troops. After the battle, he escaped back at most 10,000 or 20,000 people were definitely not Aga Khan's opponent, He

Lat must be taken down by Aga Khan”

"According to the agreement between our country and Aga Khan, after the war, the entire Afghanistan was divided into two, the west belonged to Persia and the east belonged to our country. Due to the defeat of Mahmoud, it was only a matter of time before he took over the entire western region"

"In that battle, the Kandaharans and the Gilzai people almost lost half of their troops. It was the time when they were weakest. If another battle was held, the entire eastern Afghanistan would not be able to ease for at least twenty years."

Qitad nodded, "Very good, the reason why I let the brigade of Harach enter Peshawar alone is to attract Timur Khan's attention and make him focus on the east, not the north, now it's good

Haharachi discovered a secret passage and penetrated directly into the Khyber Pass, and had already taken down the castle that controlled the pass."

"The large number of Uzbeks who stayed in Peshawar would not have the chance to return to Kabul"

"I order the Mots army stayed in Kunduz-Bagland, and the guards set out early tomorrow morning, with the goal: Kabul!"

In fact, not only the guards were heading to Kabul, but also one of the divisions of Asina.

The next morning, Asina led the teacher to the south first.

Since the land north of Kabul is all the territory of the Girzai people, the Qitad army arrived in Kabul in a few days after a fake "fight"!

Kabul City.

It's still the same hall, but the lights in the hall were much weaker than that day.

Timur Khan, Sadik Khan, Ibn Khan and others sat upright in and remained silent.

After a while, Ibn said, "It is obvious that the eunuch Agahan had discussed with Qitad early in the morning. Just like they divided the Ottoman Empire, Agahan had taken Herat and was heading for

Advance eastward, he has 80,000 elite troops under his command”

"The Truchens in the north also had two armies, sixty thousand, and we now have only about 40,000 people. The food and grass in the city were consumed by the previous war..."

/p>

Sadik Khan said: "Peshawar is rich, didn't Inal agree to transfer some food and grass from there?"
