Anthology Of Heroes History Ahmad Shah Durrani and The Last Afghan Empire | Part 2
Ahmad Shah Durrani had made his mark.
Every tribesman in Afghanistan recognised him as King.
In Delhi, the Grand Mughal cowered behind his peacock thrown, in fear of what the Afghan warlord would do next.
But all was not well for the Pearl of Pearls, by vanquishing the Mughals, he had ripped the scab off a wound that had been festering for generations.
The people of India: Sikhs, Marathi's and Jat's had tolerated subjugation for a millennia, but bowing to a foreign Afghan king - don't be ridiculous.
An enormous battle was coming, and neither side would be taking prisoners...
The climactic end to the life of Ahmad Shah Durrani and The Last Afghan Empire.
Part 2 of 2.
