In order to attract some Afghan troops to leave Peshawar, the British army conducted an auxiliary assault in khyber pass. There are about 15000 Afghan troops, which are far inferior to the enemy in number and equipment. 1839, British troops occupied Kandahar, Ghazni and Kabul.
In order to counter the colonists, people's guerrilla warfare was launched in Afghanistan. 184 1 year1kloc-0/month, an uprising broke out in Kabul, the British puppet Shah Shudeza was killed, the occupation troops were scattered and the remnants were evacuated from Kabul. 1842, Britain sent troops to Afghanistan to conquer, but it failed. At the end of 1842, Britain had to admit defeat and give up Afghan territory.
The cause of the Second Anglo-Afghan War was that 36,000 British troops invaded Afghanistan through Khyber, Kuram and Baolan Pass. Afghan troops were forced to retreat because they were at a disadvantage in number and equipment. 10, British troops occupied Kandahar. On May 26th of the same year, yakubu Khan signed the Gan-Damak Treaty with Britain, and Afghanistan became a British territory.
This humiliating treaty aroused great indignation at home. 1On September 8, 879, the people's uprising broke out and killed the British governor in Kabul. 1880 On July 27th, in the battle of Maiwande near Kandahar, the Afghan army defeated a British army. British troops in Kabul are surrounded by nearly 654.38 million insurgents. The heroic resistance of Afghans forced the British authorities to give up their intention to invade Afghanistan and signed a compromise agreement with Abdul Herman Amir. The 1880 agreement provides for Afghanistan's internal autonomy, but its foreign policy is controlled by Britain. 188 1 year, British troops withdrew from Afghanistan.
The Third Anglo-Afghan War was launched by Britain because Oman Nurahan 19 19, which came to power in February, declared Afghanistan's independence on February 28th. On May 6th, Britain declared war on Afghanistan. There are 40,000 regular Afghan troops fighting in Khyber, Waziristan and Kandahar in three ways. There are nearly 340,000 British troops, and they still have the upper hand in military weapons.
The British army won the battle in the direction of Khyber, but in the direction of Waziristan, the Afghans defeated the British army and surrounded the Tal fortress on May 27th. The rise of the anti-British uprising of Pashtun tribes on the border and the upsurge of the Indian liberation movement made the colonists in a difficult situation.
These circumstances forced Britain to give up its plan to continue fighting. On August 8, 2009, a preliminary peace treaty was signed in Rawalpindi. 10 In June, Britain signed a treaty with Afghanistan.
According to this treaty, Britain recognized the independence of Afghanistan. The moral and political support of the Soviet Union and Russia, the first country to recognize Afghanistan's independence, and the rout of British interveners east of the Caspian Sea were important conditions for Afghanistan to win the third Anglo-Arab war.
