The Kingdom of Afghanistan sent troops to attack the Ottoman Turkish Empire, in fact, it had been planned for a long time. As early as the beginning of the chaos in the Middle East, the Afghan kingdom of Akbar Khan received instructions from the Chinese Empire to prepare for the dispatch of troops. At a critical moment, a large army can be sent to launch an offensive against the Ottoman Turkish Empire and seize the territory of the Ottoman Turkish Empire.

In this regard, the king of Afghanistan, Akbar Khan, did not seem to disagree. The Chinese Empire promised him to become the caliph of the Islamic world. And the current caliph is the Sultan Abdul of the Ottoman Turkish Empire. Mejid I, only by defeating the Ottoman Turks, or destroying them, could he snatch the title of caliph. Even if this war will not destroy the Ottoman Empire, it will be enough if it can weaken the Ottoman Empire.

Akbar Khan had already led 300,000 troops into the northern part of the Persian kingdom to secretly prepare for war. The Ottoman Turks had originally deployed heavy troops here to compete with Russia for control of the Caucasus. However, after the complete defeat of Russia, the entire southern Caucasus fell into the hands of the Ottoman Turkish Empire. And the northern part of the Caucasus became the territory of the Chinese Empire. This allowed the Ottoman Turks to relax their vigilance in the southern Caucasus, deploying only a small number of troops in the region. It was not until after the annexation of the Kingdom of Afghanistan to the Kingdom of Persia that the garrison here was reinforced. At its peak, the garrison once reached more than 100,000 people.

However, the rebellion in Egypt and the suppression of the Ottoman Turkish Empire suffered a crushing defeat. As a result, the Ottoman Empire had to send troops to suppress the Egyptians. Most of the troops deployed in the southern Caucasus have also been drawn, with less than 50,000 men remaining.

After being raided by the Kingdom of Afghanistan. The Imperial Ottoman Turkish Army simply could not stop. In less than half a month, the entire southern part of the Caucasus Mountains fell under the control of the Afghan army. Moreover. The Afghan army also began to march towards the peninsula of Asia Minor. Taking advantage of the lack of forces in the Ottoman Empire, the Ottoman Turks seized the territory of this region.

The Ottoman Empire was stunned by a surprise attack by the Kingdom of Afghanistan. They did not expect the Kingdom of Afghanistan to attack at all. After all, the Kingdom of Afghanistan is now a member of the Peace Alliance dominated by the Chinese Empire. The more this happens, the less reckless the Kingdom of Afghanistan will be. After all, doesn't this mean that the entire Peace Alliance is going to war with the Ottoman Turkish Empire? This will lead to the outbreak of world war. It was precisely because of this that the Ottoman Turkish Empire let its guard down, and the Afghan army easily captured the territory of the eastern peninsula of Asia Minor. The Ottoman Turkish Empire, because of its confrontation with the allied forces of Egypt and the Kingdom of Najd in northern Palestine, was unable to mobilize troops to intercept the Afghan army for a while. The situation was even more unfavorable for the Ottoman Turkish Empire.

The attack of the Kingdom of Afghanistan plunged the entire Ottoman Turkish Empire into terror. They feared that this was a harbinger of an imminent attack by the Peace Alliance on the Ottoman Turkish Empire. The Ottoman Turkish Empire, although not weak, was nothing at all in the face of a peaceful alliance.

Abdul. While scolding the Chinese Empire for being despicable and shameless, Mejid I contacted the Germans and asked for German support. If the Peace League really wanted to act against the Ottoman Turkish Empire, it was with the exception of Germany and the German-led Holy Alliance. No one has been able to save the Ottoman Empire. At the same time, the Ottoman Turkish Empire also questioned the Chinese Empire whether the Chinese Empire wanted to go to war with the Ottoman Turkish Empire. They wanted to know the exact intentions of the Chinese Empire.

The Kingdom of Afghanistan entered the war. caused a series of cascading changes. The member states of the German-level Holy League began to expand their armaments on a large scale. They feared that these peace alliances wanted to settle the Ottoman Empire first. Then go to war against the Holy Alliance. In that case, they will be at a disadvantage. Meantime. The Germans also actively contacted the Chinese Empire, asking what the intentions of the Chinese Empire were.

Let the Kingdom of Afghanistan attack the Ottoman Turkish Empire. Weakening the power of the Ottoman Turkish Empire, which had long been an established policy of the Chinese Empire. However, this does not mean that the Chinese Empire will directly intervene in the war. Unless it is a large-scale war between the Peace Alliance and the Holy Alliance, the Chinese Empire will not directly send troops to fight. With the strength of the current kingdoms of Egypt and Afghanistan, it was enough to deal with the Ottoman Turkish Empire. Besides, combined with the resistance of other regions, the Ottoman Empire was almost exhausted.

The Chinese Empire stated that the Kingdom of Afghanistan's attack on the Ottoman Turkish Empire was entirely of their own volition, and had nothing to do with the Chinese Empire and the Peace Alliance. The Chinese Empire and the Peace Alliance also strongly opposed the entry of the Kingdom of Afghanistan into the war. However, according to the covenant of the Peace Alliance, the members of the alliance have the right to wage war against foreign countries. Other allies can decide whether or not to join the war according to their own interests. Of course, the Chinese Empire would not join the war. Such a statement made the Ottoman Turkish Empire and the German Empire breathe a sigh of relief. Although the intervention of the Kingdom of Afghanistan made the situation even more unfavorable for the Ottoman Turkish Empire. But, at least things haven't gotten to the worst. If the Chinese Empire intervened directly, it would really be over, and the Ottoman Turkish Empire would be dead.

The German Empire told the Ottoman Empire that it was still only able to provide financial and weapons support to the Ottoman Empire, given that the Chinese Empire did not send troops directly to the war. They hoped that the Ottoman Turkish Empire would be able to defeat its opponents on its own. In this case, it will not give the Chinese empire a pretext. The German Empire was afraid that if they sent troops to help the Ottoman Turkish Empire, the Chinese Empire would tear off its mask and go straight to war. In that case, there would be no benefit for the Ottoman Empire, nor for the German Empire. At present, the preparations for war in all countries have not yet been completed, and it is time to try to avoid the outbreak of large-scale war.

The attitude of the German Empire made Abdul. Mejid I was somewhat dissatisfied. He had also hoped that the German Empire would send troops directly to support the Ottoman Empire. After all, he had already promised to join the Holy Alliance after the counterinsurgency was over. However, the German Empire refused to send troops directly because of the threat of the Chinese Empire, which forced the Ottoman Empire to rely on its own strength to defeat the rebels and invaders.

Because the Kingdom of Afghanistan entered the war, the resistance forces that had been preparing to lie dormant in the Ukrainian plains and the Balkan Peninsula rose again. And, as if they had the support of other forces, they had more weapons. As a result, the Ottoman Turkish Empire's troops deployed in the Balkans and the Ukrainian plains were still unable to evacuate.

In order to defend against the attack of the Kingdom of Afghanistan, the Ottoman Turkish Empire ordered the Ottoman Empire. Nouri. Pasha led an army of 400,000 troops to the eastern part of Asia Minor to fight the Afghan army. At this time, the Ottoman Turkish Empire did not know at all, because the advance of the front was very smooth, and Akbar Khan had already increased his troops again. He not only recruited 300,000 troops in the kingdoms of Afghanistan and Persia, but also secretly sent 200,000 reinforcements from his country to the eastern part of the Asia Minor peninsula.

On 23 September, a large-scale battle broke out between the Ottoman Turkish Empire and the Kingdom of Afghanistan, with more than 700,000 people on both sides, in Diyarbakir, in the southeastern part of the Asia Minor Peninsula. At the beginning of the battle, the Afghan army had only 200,000 men here, and they were attacked by the superior forces of the Ottoman Turkish Empire. Ottoman. Nouri. Pasha hopes to crush the Afghan army here in one fell swoop and thus gain an advantage. More importantly, it was possible to cut off the supply lines of the Afghan army from Iraq to the eastern part of the peninsula of Asia Minor.

Afghanistan attacked the Ottoman Turkish Empire, and the main logistical supply came from the Chinese Empire. Otherwise, they simply don't have enough strength to fight this battle. In order to ensure the smooth flow of logistical supply lines, it is safest to transport war materials from China-controlled Iraq to the Asia Minor Peninsula. Even if the Ottoman Turkish Empire knew this, it had no way to stop it, let alone launch an attack on Iraq. If they dared to attack, the Chinese Empire would immediately enter the war, dealing a devastating blow to the Ottoman Turkish Empire.

At the beginning of the battle, the Ottoman Turks had the upper hand, and the Afghan army could only hold on to the city. However, when Akbar Khan arrived with 300,000 reinforcements, the situation was reversed. The Ottoman Turks suffered heavy losses in the ensuing days of fighting, losing more than 300,000 men. Ottoman. Nouri. Pasha also had to lead the last remnants of the 100,000 remnants of the army to retreat to the western part of the Asia Minor peninsula.

The crushing defeat of the Ottoman Empire* army in the eastern part of the peninsula of Asia Minor directly affected the entire situation of the war. The Egyptian army and the army of the Kingdom of Najd, having been restocked, began to attack the northern part of Palestine. Suliman. The hundreds of thousands of Ottoman Turkish imperial troops led by Pasha could only be in a pack. And, as the Afghan army moves westward, there is a high probability that their rear roads will be cut off. Once the back route was cut off, it would be a devastating blow to the Ottoman Turkish Empire. (To be continued......)
