Chapter 1061: Father and Son
"Quick! Blockade all intersections of Kabul out of the city. To march towards the royal palace, be sure to capture Dost. Muhammad Khan and Sher. Prince Ali, can't let them run! Then, under the cover of night, a large number of Prince Akbar's troops finally came out of the barracks and joined the battle. They, under the leadership of officers, are preparing to occupy various strategic points in Kabul. The rest of the troops marched to the palace.
Prince Akbar's military coup was sudden, loyal to Dost. Muhammad Khan's army was completely unguarded, and many of them were disarmed. It can be said that Prince Akbar's coup d'état prevailed from the very beginning.
"Congratulations, Your Royal Highness, after tonight, you will be the emir of the Kingdom of Afghanistan. Under your leadership, the Kingdom of Afghanistan will surely become stronger! Colonel Niu Zhiyang said with a smile. If the Kingdom of Afghanistan fell to the Chinese Empire, then the passage from the west to India would be completely opened. This is undoubtedly very helpful for the Chinese Empire.
"General Niu, the Kingdom of Afghanistan will always be loyal to the Chinese Empire!" Prince Akbar was not complacent about the imminent success of the coup, and he was still very humble in front of Colonel Niu Zhiyang, knowing that without the support of the Chinese Empire, his coup would not have succeeded. Even if it succeeds, it will be destroyed by the Chinese* army that arrives later. If he wants to be the emir of the Kingdom of Afghanistan in peace and stability, and make the Kingdom of Afghanistan even stronger, he must hug the thick thighs of the Chinese Empire.
Colonel Niu Zhiyang and Prince Akbar looked at each other and smiled, this coup d'état was completely about taking what they wanted. Both the Chinese Empire and Prince Akbar will be victors. And the loser. It is undoubtedly Dost who is still in the palace. Muhammad Khan and Sher. Prince Ali.
"Father, what's the matter? Could it be that the Chinese called? How did they come so fast? "Shel. Prince Ali's face was full of panic.
"No, not Chinese. The Chinese are still on their way to Kabul. It won't be so soon! "Dost. Muhammad Khan said with great certainty that he had already guessed something, so his face became very ugly.
"Not Chinese? So what's going on? "Shel. After all, Prince Ali has not experienced strong winds and waves, and it is difficult to calm down.
"It's your big brother. Akbar: He finally couldn't help but be lonely. "Dost. Muhammad Khan gritted his teeth and said. Although, he knew that his suppression of Prince Akbar had made Prince Akbar very dissatisfied. However, he never imagined that Prince Akbar would have the audacity to carry out a military coup. He had to admit that at this point. He miscalculated.
"Big brother? Akbar, that guy! What does he want to do? Did he want to overthrow his father's rule? "Shel. Prince Ali exclaimed. Originally, he thought that his throne was secure, but now, Prince Akbar did not hesitate to launch a coup d'état. There is no doubt that the situation in Kabul is now extremely dangerous. If Prince Akbar's coup d'état had been successful, he would have lost his life. Prince Ali peed his pants in fright.
"Father, let the army suppress the coup d'état in Akbar! Otherwise. We're done! "Shel. Prince Ali panicked.
"It's late. Our army didn't expect Akbar to do this, and it was already difficult to stop him! "Dost. Muhammad Khan said helplessly. Now he can see it clearly, compared to Prince Akbar. Shea. Prince Ali is indeed too much worse. If I had known, I would not have changed the heir to the throne. But now, it's too late to say anything.
"Boom! Rumble! "There was a violent explosion inside the palace. It was Prince Akbar's army firing at the positions of the palace guards with mortars supported by the Chinese Empire* Military Intelligence Agency. Because martial law was already in place in Kabul, the military intelligence could only find a way to bring in mortars. Otherwise. Maybe they'll bring in 75mm field guns as well.
But even so. The power of the mortar is already very good. Against the armies of the Kingdom of Afghanistan, which did not have many heavy weapons, it was already possible to inflict fatal damage on them.
"Rush! Rush into the palace and we'll win! The army loyal to Prince Akbar roared loudly.
"Rush!" A large number of soldiers rushed towards the gates of the palace.
"Fire! Kill those damned rebels. Allah will never forgive them! An officer of the palace guard shouted loudly.
"Dada-da-da!" A heavy machine gun began to strafe, and a dense burst of bullets whistled past, and Prince Akbar's army, which was attacking the palace, was knocked to the ground one after another, and a thick layer of corpses was piled up on the ground, and blood flowed from them, staining the ground red.
"Damn! Mortars, aim a little for me! ”
"Boom! Rumble! "Two mortar shells exploded, one shell hit the heavy machine gun that was firing, the shell exploded, the heavy machine gunner was killed on the spot, and even the heavy machine gun was blown into parts.
The army, loyal to Prince Akbar, took the opportunity to storm the palace and began a fierce battle with the palace guards.
Although the royal palace guard was composed of the most elite troops of the Kingdom of Afghanistan, their number was too small, and the total number was less than a thousand. And the army of Prince Akbar, who attacked the royal palace, amounted to tens of thousands of people. The whole palace was surrounded by them inside and out, and not even a single fly could fly out.
In the main hall of the royal palace, listening to the gunfire that was getting closer and closer, Dost. Muhammad Khan's face sank like water, his body trembled slightly, and it seemed that he still couldn't believe that Prince Akbar would actually carry out a military coup.
Shea. Prince Ali's body was also trembling, but he was scared. The royal palace was occupied, and what would happen to Prince Akbar in the event of a successful coup d'état? Perhaps, Prince Akbar will put him to death! As soon as I thought of this, Schelle. Prince Ali was very afraid. He regretted it a little now, if he had known, he should not have fought against Prince Akbar everywhere before. It's just that there is no regret medicine in this world.
"Your Majesty, we can't hold it. The number of rebels is too large, and more than half of the palace guards have already suffered casualties, so please evacuate here immediately! "An officer of the palace guard entered the main hall and greeted Dost. Muhammad Khan reported.
"Evacuate? Where else will we be able to go? "Dost. Muhammad Khan asked helplessly.
The officer did not answer, for he also knew that the entire palace had been surrounded by rebels led by Prince Akbar. If you want to escape, it's completely impossible. Although the palace guards were very heroic, they were just trapped beasts.
"Order the palace guards to stop fighting!" Dost. Muhammad Khan said. Now that the defeat is assured, there is no need to continue to shed blood and sacrifice.
"Father!" Shea. Prince Ali shouted, could it be that this is planning to be captured?
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The officer nodded, and then walked out of the main hall.
A few minutes later, the gunfire in the palace subsided.
Subsequently, a group of soldiers dressed in the army uniforms of the Afghan royal palace stormed into the main hall and sent Dost. Muhammad Khan and Sher. Prince Ali surrounded him in the middle, and the muzzle of the black hole was pointed at the father and son.
Dost, who has experienced a lot of strong winds and waves. Muhammad Khan was also able to maintain his composure. However, Shel. Prince Ali was almost not scared to pee. Until then, he was a prince of the noble kingdom of Afghanistan, the heir to the throne. But now, he has become a prisoner, and if he doesn't do it well, he will lose his life.
"Let Akbar come to me!" Dost. Muhammad Khan said in a deep voice.
"Father, I'm here!" Prince Akbar then walked into the hall, and he looked proud with his head held high. Now he is the victor, and he will be the next emir of the Kingdom of Afghanistan.
"Akbar, why are you doing this?" Dost. Muhammad Khan stared at Prince Akbar closely.
Even though Prince Akbar had succeeded in the coup d'état, however, in Dost. Under Muhammad Khan's gaze, there was still some weakness.
"Father, I did this because I didn't want to see the Kingdom of Afghanistan fall under your leadership!" Prince Akbar said.
"Humph! Quibble. You're doing it for your own selfish desires! ”
Prince Akbar's face immediately turned red, and the main reason why he staged the coup d'état was, of course, not wanting the heir to the throne to become his younger brother. He believes that he is the best successor to the throne of Afghanistan.
"Father, I am only doing this to take back the throne that rightfully belongs to me. While you were imprisoned in India by the British, it was I who led the Barakzai tribe to continue the fight. However, after you became the emir again, you are actually ready to pass on the throne to this good-for-nothing guy, and you are sorry for me first! The reason why I did this was forced by you! Prince Akbar roared.
"Big brother, the throne is yours, I won't fight with you, you let me go!" Shea. Prince Ali hurriedly said. Although he wanted to become the emir of the Kingdom of Afghanistan, he now had to compromise in order to save his life. The throne is obviously more important than life.
"Haha! Father, is this the person you value? How can such a coward lead the kingdom of Afghanistan to a stronger place? Prince Akbar laughed. (To be continued......)
