Chapter 1121: Kabul's Storm and Seeking the Moon

Isfahan City, Imperial Palace.

Abbas II's face turned pale.

Just yesterday, the Kabul tribe sent a messenger to report to him that the Mughal army was approaching the Kabul area and requested Persian troops to rush to help.

Abbas II thought that the Mughals would act, but they did not expect that their actions would be so big.

These guys are a little too impatient, right?

No one knew the Mughal ambitions better than Abbas II.

The Ottoman Empire, Safi Empire, and Mughal Empire have always been in a three-legged state.

The Ottoman Empire was in the west, the Safi Empire was in the east, and the Mughal Empire was in the south.

Originally, the three parties maintained a considerable degree of subtle balance, and any easy change would break this balance.

But the Persians made this person who broke the balance.

For a moment, the Ottomans became depressed, and the Mughals were not such good things.

When the time came, they began to expand vigorously, not only expanding southward, but even reaching their hands to the throat area on the Silk Road and Kabul area.

This is something that Abbas II cannot tolerate.

Because the Persians and the Ming people reached an agreement that the Persians represented the power of the Mesopotamians on the Silk Road.

The Ming people fully trusted the Persians because the two sides had fought side by side.

This is definitely not something that others can easily provoke.

The Mughals always wanted to get involved because they wanted to exert their influence on the Silk Road and maintain a symbolic meaning to a considerable extent.

But in this case, the interests of the Persians will be shaken.

Abbas II absolutely cannot allow it.

If the Mughals want to fight, then come and fight.

Anyway, Abbas II would not be afraid.

Even the extremely cruel Ottoman Persians, who claimed to be invincible, have defeated them, so what is the only Mughals?

If the Persian army can win a great victory in the battle with the Mughals this time, then it will become famous. For a long time in the future, no one will dare to challenge the Safi Empire.

By then, Abbas II would only need to please the Emperor of Ming Dynasty and gain a considerable degree of benefits.

Therefore, in this battle, the Persians only allowed to win but not lose.

...

...

The weather in Kabul is even worse than Aamir Khan imagined.

As Amir Khan imagines, the weather can improve in one or two days at most.

But the reality is that they have encountered a storm that is rare in a thousand years.

The storm lasted not only for a long time, but also very violent.

Countless trees were uprooted, and even many houses were destroyed.

The Mughal army led by Amir Khan was hidden in the cave, but even so, they would tremble with fear.

It is hard for them to imagine if they were still outside at this moment, the heavy rain would have swept them away.

However, when will this wait be an extremely headache. If you continue to wait, delaying the fighter jet is a problem that Amir Khan has to face.

Once the Kabul natives were given time to react, they would inevitably make some tricks.

If they asked for help from the Persians, the Persians would definitely come to help, right?

But this actually doesn't matter.

Aamir Khan did not take the Persians seriously from beginning to end.

The Persians were no longer the extremely powerful tribe of the ancient Persian Empire.

The Persian Empire is now an empty shell. It looks bright and beautiful on the outside, but it is actually rotten inside.

The Persians simply relied on being allies of the Ming Empire to defeat the Ottomans.

But now that the Ming army has evacuated the Mesopotamians, what else can the Persians be so proud of?

If the Persians really got away and sent troops to reinforce Kabul, then Aamir Khan would not mind a battle between the two sides.

As long as you can win a complete victory in this battle, the Mughal Empire can defeat the Persian dream in one fell swoop, and even get involved in control of the Silk Road.

As for the Ming Empire, it is probably too late to get the news.

Even if they have resentment in their hearts, they may have to pinch their noses and admit it.

By then, the Mughal Empire could continue to expand northward and westward, snatching more benefits from the middle belts of the Ottoman Empire and the Persian Empire.

It is said that more things are worse than less, but in fact what Amir Khan hopes more is that more things can happen.

Because these extra things can make the Mughal Empire gain more benefits.

The more benefits the empire gained, the more benefits Aamir Khan will naturally be.

After all, for professional soldiers like them, only by constantly fighting can they accumulate more capital and interests.

So this storm may not be a bad thing.

If there were no storm, Aamir Khan felt that he would take Kabul in less than three days.

But now, what Amir Khan is looking forward to is able to fight the Persians with real swords and guns.

...

...

In Kabul City, a group of tribes including the Pashtun people gathered together to discuss countermeasures.

Although the messenger has been sent out, there is no response yet.

In other words, they must start to consider facing the attack of the Mughal army alone without reinforcements.

This is undoubtedly an extremely scary thing.

Kabul City is more of a big market than a city.

The entire city is built with rammed earth, and it is not as strong as those stone and brick cities.

This kind of city is OK to defend against some thieves, but it may not last long when encountering professional troops.

Fortunately, a storm delayed the attack of the Mughal army.

"What should we do now? Mobilize all the young and middle-aged people in the city to prepare to defend the city?"

At this moment, these native tribes in Kabul area have put the conflicts aside and began to seriously think about forming alliances and responding to the enemy.

For them, they can put everything else aside and work together to deal with this level.

If you can't even pass this level, then nothing you say is unnecessary.

"That's all. Even if the Persian army comes to help, it will take time. Before that, we must hold on. Tell everyone in the city that except for the elderly, women and children, they must assist in defending the city as much as possible. It doesn't matter if there is no experience, we can teach. Now we are in a relationship of prosperity and loss. If we want to survive, we must not let the Mughals rush in."

"Okay, then I'll make arrangements. But we can get 30,000 people by just one goal. I really don't know how long it will last."

"It depends on the Persians for as long as you can. I hope they don't come too late."
