【1372 Muhammad Yakub Khan hesitates】
"I think he still wants to surrender to Abdur Rahman Khan, otherwise, with his personality, he would not be so calm. He must send someone to negotiate with Abdur Rahman Khan in these three days." Yamlali was very satisfied with Zhang Haobo's attitude towards him and answered hurriedly.
Zhang Haobo nodded, "So, will the person he sent to negotiate be you?"
"It's very likely that it's me, he has no minister who is more wise than me." Yamlali was not humble either.
"Okay, please let me know if you have any movement." Zhang Haobo patted Yamlali's shoulder.
"Okay, please rest assured, Mr. Special Envoy, I will do my best to make the Chinese control of Afghanistan successful. However, Mr. Special Envoy, please tell your country that it is best to show the power of China in these two days. In that case, even if Mohammed Yakub Khan is still swaying, the leaders of his tribes will force him to move closer to China." Yamlali offered advice to Zhang Haobo.
Zhang Haobo thought to himself that the best way to show his power is force. The key is that Vladimir Granath now means not to use force! How to show it?
However, Zhang Haobo still had a very plain expression, and did not let Yam Lali see what he thought now, "Okay, I will convey your suggestions."
Yamlali was overjoyed, "Thank you, please."
Zhang Haobo left and immediately returned to the embassy, and passed on the situation of his meeting with Mohammed Yakub Khan back to Herat.
Vladimir Granath immediately received a message sent back by Zhang Haobo, and quickly transferred it to Yekazelina Krimova to know.
Yekazelina Krimova dared not neglect and immediately sent the passage to the President's Secretariat far away in Berlin.
Fortunately, it was not evening this time, and the cute CEO was playing football with the guards. Princess Katrina Kaif came with the telegram.
"Is it news from Afghanistan?" When Emperor Hua saw Princess Katrina Kaif sending a message in person, he knew it was an urgent matter. He kicked the ball aside and came over.
"Yes, Mohamedyakub Khan took the initiative to summon Zhang Haobo, a senior agent we sent, and the intelligence analysis shows that Mohamedyakub Khan still has the intention to surrender to Abdur Rahman Khan, claiming to give us a reply in three days. A minister beside Mohamedyakub Khan who was eager to China suggested that we should show the strength of China in these two days. In this way, a group of tribal leaders under Mohamedyakub Khan will be more inclined to surrender to China. At that time, it is impossible for Mohamedyakub Khan to surrender to Abdur Rahman Khan and the British." Princess Katrina Kaf said.
After hearing Princess Katrina Kaifu's words, the cute president read the telegram briefly, just like Princess Katrina Kaifu said, so he returned the telegram to Princess Katrina Kaifu, "Show your strength? How to show your strength in such a tense time besides force? Is it necessary to show the strength of the Chinese army? Isn't this a nonsense suggestion?"
Princess Katrina Kaif nodded and said, "Otherwise, let the one who has passed show the combat effectiveness of our Chinese army? Even if such a little man fights, we can say that it is because of protecting the embassy, and the British cannot prove that we directly intervene in the war."
Princess Katrina Kaif knew that Emperor Hua did not want to turn against Britain directly before the war preparations were completed, so as not to alert the British and enter the preparations for a full-scale war in advance.
"Yes." Hua Huang nodded, "Just generate electricity to Yekazelina Krimova according to your wishes."
After Hua Huang finished speaking, he ran back to play football again.
Princess Katrina Kaifu looked at Emperor Hua's back and said to himself: It's all my intention? Puff. After thinking about it, Princess Katrina Kaifu smiled. It seemed that no matter how big the matter was, it was a small matter in Emperor Hua. Princess Katrina Kaifu really didn't know why His Majesty's heart could be so big.
Princess Katrina Kaf soon forwarded His Majesty’s latest instructions to Yekazelina Krimova. Yekazelina Krimova informed Vladimir Granat again, and Vladimir Granat conveyed it to Zhang Haobo.
Zhang Haobo fell into deep thought. What should he do if he could only use the sharp knife company in his hand to show his strength? First of all, the weapons and ammunition they brought were not sufficient. Even if they wanted to fight a war, how large could they fight?
Each person has only 300 rounds of bullets, but only 6,000 rounds together. Even if the small number of weapons and equipment and bullets of the Chinese Embassy in Afghanistan is added, it is only within 10,000 rounds.
Zhang Haobo decided to wait and see what happened.
However, although there was a wait, Zhang Haobo still let all the armed personnel in the embassy enter a state of preparation for war.
In addition to the 200 people brought by Zhang Haobo and Gao Yitong, there were 80 original sergeants from the embassy. These sergeants were only at the level of the security headquarters, and naturally could not be compared with the field army, and were even more incomparable to the more than 200 officers of the Chinese field army brought by Zhang Haobo.
Zhang Haobo asked the ambassador to prepare for evacuation. Everyone had packed all the supplies and all the excess documents had been destroyed. He was waiting for a specific action plan to be sent from Vladimir Granath.
"If Vladimir Granath's website leader agrees to us, I think Kandahar will definitely not be able to stay. At critical moments, he can bring the important Afghan leader across the Helmand River and then regroup, there should be a chance." Zhang Haobo analyzed.
Gao Yitong nodded, "I just don't know if Your Majesty will let the army come. If you are sure that the Chinese army will come to reinforce, it is best to stand in Kandahar. Otherwise, it will be troublesome to come back after crossing the Helmand River."
"Make two-handed preparations." Zhang Haobo said decisively.
Zhang Haobo could afford to wait, but Mohamed Yakub Khan was so anxious that he sent someone to contact Abdur Rahman Khan.
Abdur Rahman Khan couldn't make the decision himself, so he could only find the British front commander, and the British front commander could not make the decision either. For such a big thing, at least people of the level of Indian Governor Robert Burwoliton could make the decision, so he could only send someone to go back and contact him.
The British now have telegraph technology, but they do not have radio technology, so they are naturally not as quick as the Chinese army. Moreover, the level is to let Robert Boulwaliton know the news, and he also has to hold a meeting to study it or convey it to the UK. Not to mention that it is three days, a month may not be enough.
Therefore, Mohammed Yakub Khan was so ill that he went to the hospital in a hurry, which was useless.
The two sides facing Mohammed Yakubkhan now have almost the same conditions. They both become colonies. The difference is that they become colonies of China. Mohammed Yakubkhan feels that it will not take long to be completely assimilated by China. There is no such risk in becoming a colony of Britain. At least India has not been assimilated for hundreds of years.
However, if he surrenders to Britain, he will inevitably be placed under Abdur Rahman Khan. If he surrenders to China, he is likely to be the head of the local Afghanistan. Even if the Khan position cannot be saved, the highest position of this local should be able to be saved. Zhang Haobo also clearly stated that he could do it.
Therefore, Mohammed Yakub Khan was particularly entangled at this moment.
"Your Majesty, there is not much time." Just two days later, Yamlali came to urge, "Now the British attack is even more fierce, pushing thirty meters a day. At this speed, you can attack Kandahar in less than five days."
It turned out that after knowing that Mohammed Yakub Khan was willing to surrender, the British front commander not only did not slow down the speed of the attack, but instead spread the news to the entire British army and threatened to join the army with India. Everyone could fight well. When everyone knew the news, the crowd was excited, so the battle became even more fierce. The British front commander also had selfish intentions. If Mohammed Yakub Khan surrendered automatically, his credit would be reduced by at least half. Now, if Mohammed Yakub Khan was forced to surrender when he attacked Kandahar, then the credit would be all his. Whether Kandahar can be defeated is two different views internationally and in the UK, and there is a big difference.
So the British attacks became more and more fierce.
Mohammed Yakub Khan listened to the rumbling sound of cannons outside and said fiercely: "Didn't I send someone to negotiate with the British? Why did they still struggle to fight each other at this time?"
The person sent by Mohammed Yakubkhan to negotiate was his son-in-law and did not send Yamrali, which was also something that Yamrali was unhappy. Mohammed Yakubkhan had already seen that Yamrali was biased towards China, so he did not send Yamrali to talk to the British.
"Your Majesty, wake up. It's this time. Don't you understand? It's Abdur Rahman Khan! Even if you want to surrender to the UK, can Abdur Rahman Khan let you go? It's a great achievement to take the initiative to surrender to China, but it's too late to passively surrender to Britain. Moreover, not only will Abdur Rahman Khan exclude you and kill you! The leaders under his command have fought with the British for more than a year and have died, what will they think of you? At that time, you are not a human inside and outside!" Yamlali sternly advised, and was also anxious.
Mohamed Yakub Khan couldn't help but get angry and said, "Don't I know what you said? Am I for myself? I am for the existence of orthodox Afghans in a few years! Do you know how powerful the Han culture is? They are different from the British, and they defect to the British, at least Afghanistan or Afghanistan. I can live without death, I am not greedy for more!"
Yamlali looked at Mohammed Yakub Khan in surprise. This time, Yamlali was solemnly respecting Mohammed Yakub Khan, but he did not expect that Mohammed Yakub Khan would say what he said just now.
"Since Your Majesty said that, I have nothing to say. In my opinion, even if China assimilates us, there is nothing wrong with it. Judging from the Uzbek, Turkmen, Tajik, Kyrgyz, and Tajik in Central Asia, China did not burn books and did not force them to give up their original diet and clothing habits." Yamlali continued to persuade.
"But the Chinese have brought them education to them and asked them to speak Chinese and write Chinese characters. In less than a few years, these people will become exactly the same as the Chinese!" Mohammed Yakubkhan waved his hand, "You go down first, let me think about it again."
"But tomorrow is the three-day deadline." Yamlali reminded.
"Then wait for another three days. Isn't their Chinese national strength not good? If they really have the strength, why don't they send troops to Afghanistan directly? They just want to open their mouths and ask us to do this and that. Is there such a good thing in the world?" Mohammed Yakub Khan said angrily: "No need to say, if the envoy tomorrow asks you, you say it was what I said, and give me another three days to consider."
Yamlali sighed, "If this is the case, I am afraid that even if Your Majesty surrenders to China in the future, the State of China will remember the incident of His Majesty surrendering to the four obstacles when His Majesty surrenders."
Yamlali said and went down.
Mohammed Yakub Khan looked at Yamrali's back with distress, and angrily smashed the tableware beside him. He was not satisfied. He stood up, took a table beside him, raised it high, smashed it hard on the ground, kicked it hard, and stepped on it, "Ahhhhhhhhhh!" 7189
