Princess Samyukta left to Manipura (capital city of Magadha empire) along with her family.. as soon as she reached, she summoned General Rudra Verma.. she told him, 'General, please summon your troops.. We need to gather every soldier and March further.. ' he was already notified by the emperor regarding their plan to ally with the forces of Gupta and Gandhara empires to fight the tyrant.. Mir-Al-Zaffar..

He said, 'Yes Princess, I will arrange a meeting with all the leaders of the batallions.. ' and went away.. Samyukta relaxed for some time and got ready to address the gathering.. her father Emperor Krishna Chandra and Prince Deepak and Prince Surya also went to the meeting..

They sat together with the officers of the army.. they had infantry (soldiers fighting on foot)and cavalry(soldiers fighting on horse back). in the infantry they had troops of archers, swordsmen and spear throwers.. all the leaders of the troops were assembled in the conference chamber.. Samyukta herself lead a batallion of elite archers..

Samyukta addressed the gathering, 'the tyrant Mir Al Zaffar has threatened to make Hindustan, our beloved motherland to kneel before him.. I would really like to see how he would achieve it..how could he supress our brave Magadhan army and break into our mother land ..now is the time to unify and fight.. Magadhan army is disciplined and well trained.. I am confident that we will all play an important role in the upcoming war and make our empire and country proud.. every soldier, officer, major and general despite the rank, will all work together as one team.. we will all gather and allie with the forces of Gupta and Gandhara empires.. United we stand, divided.. we fall.. let's all unite in the face of this great enemy, forgetting our differences.. we will assemble at the point of war in a week..we will leave from Manipura in two days... '

General Rudra Verma said, ' what is the name of the place decided for the war? ' Emperor Krishna Chandra said, 'Kurukshetra!.. ' everyone let out a collective sigh.. Kurukshetra was the place where the greatest mythological war -Mahabharata -war between Kauravas and Pandavas was said to be fought.. it had huge mythological importance... everyone fell silent.. it was too overwhelming to digest..

Meanwhile in the Gupta empire too.. the gathering of high ranking military officers took place.. post that Pinaka addressed the troops directly.. 'my brothers..Hindustan has always been warm to our guests, we embraced many outsiders as our own..but now..an outsider with wicked intentions and his army wish to set foot in our mother land.. should they be allowed? ' all the soldiers cried.. 'no! ' Pinaka continued, 'the tyrant Mir Al Zaffar.. wants to take away our dignity..he wants to ravish our mothers and sisters.. should we allow him to do so? ' the soldiers cried.. 'no.. never! ' Pinaka said, 'duty to the motherland comes first, then comes family, then comes everything else.. now is the time to put aside the differences of caste, creed and region.. it's time to forget everything except that we have taken everything from this mother land.. now is the time to repay the debt of the mother land.. who is with me? '


'Me.. !Me..! Me..! ' cried the soldiers in response..

In Gandhara empire, emperor Kailash Nanda was sitting with his council, he said, 'gentlemen, though there is no direct threat to our empire now.. I am sure that once Zaffar enters Hindustan, he will not let anyone breathe.. we should act beforehand and join with Gupta and Magadha empires and fight against him.. it's the only way to stop him.. if the council is in agreement, we will meet the army officers and conclude.. ' the Prime minister said, 'emperor, how wise would it be to march the entire army to north and fight Zaffar? we are safe now.. in the central region of Hindustan.. why is there a need for us to do so.. being related to Gupta empire, I agree that we should send a part of our force to aid them.. but marching the entire force.. I think it's not a good idea.. 'the General said, 'Prime Minister, what you stated is true.. but we need to remember that we didn't do anything to resolve the issues in Gupta empire earlier though their empress is our eldest princess.. now is the time to help the daughter of our Gandhara land.. why must we hold back... that time we didn't have a chance.. now we do.. we must aid them with full force.. in that way the casualties for each empire alone would be minimized and we will make them indebted to us,in time of need they will not turn back..they will stand with us.. ' the emperor Kailash Nanda said, 'I agree with the General..! ' the council decided to vote and take the decision.. majority voted in favor of marching the entire army..

Meanwhile Badshah Khan entered Hindustan.. he was crossing the Vindhya mountain range.. he heard people say that a great war was coming soon...!

Note: I can't believe that it's the 50th chapter already.. very happy!

The Mahabharata is one of the two major Sanskrit epics of ancient India, the other being the Ramayana. It narrates the struggle between two groups of cousins in the Kurukshetra War and the fates of the Kaurava and the Pandava princes and their succession.
