Episode 91
Amaatya said to Chaanakya - "I have come to know that you have arrested Durdharaa and her maid. Hand them over to me and you also surrender to us along with Chandragupt."
Chaanakya said - "We respect women, that is why Durdharaa is not our prisoner. She is free, wherever she wants to go she can go."
He then called Durdharaa and said to her - "Durdharaa, Amaatya has come to take you."
Durdharaa said to Amaatya - "I have come here at my own will and I will not go back to Paataliputra."

Chaanakya shut the Fort gate and told Chandragupt that Amaaatya could attack them any time so they should shift from there quickly at some secured place.

Planning of Attack on and Escape from the Fort
Bhadrasaal said to Amaatya - "Do we attack them directly?
Amaatya said - "This Fort is very strongly built, and if they are ready with their resources, they can live inside the Fort for many months. So this time we will not use our own tactics, but we will use Chaanakya's tactics. We will have to act in three ways - (1) that the tactic could not even be imagined. A tunnel was built in the Fort, so that the King can escape from the Fort in emergency situation, but this time we will use that tunnel not to run away fro the Fort, but to enter the Fort. We will send our soldiers through that tunnel and they will kill them there."
On the other hand Chaanakya was planning to escape from there unhurt. He said - "According to Vaastu Shaastra, every Fort has a tunnel for the King to escape from the Fort. We will try to find it out. We will close the tunnel, so that they cannot come in"

Amaatya said - "(2) Second, we will send some of our soldiers to break the Gate of the Fort.
Chaanakya said - "You go and loose all the joints of the Fort gate. Amaatya will try to open the gate and as soon as the door will be open, it will fall on them only."

Amaatya said - "(3) Third, we will some of our soldiers towards south. What he says does not do it, and what he does not say, he does that. When he has said that he will not go anywhere leaving the Fort, he will surely go from there. So you send your army towards south, so that when he tries to escape from there your army should kill them."

Chandragupt said - "We cannot escape from the front gate, we cannot escape from the back gate, we cannot escape from the tunnel either, then from where to escape?"
Chaanakya thought for a moment, and said - "I have got the way. When a Fort is built, a way is built for water to go out." He poured water from a height to check where the water was going, and found the direction. Chaanakya Chandragupt and Chaitanya followed the water. and came to a point where the water was going inside. Chaanakya said - "This water must be going to Champaa River, I am sure. Start digging the place." his soldiers started digging the spot to go to Champaa River. He asked Shashaank and Chaitanya to seal the tunnel door also, so they went to find the tunnel door. They got the door and sealed it.

Amaatya brought his soldiers to the end of the tunnel and said - "Before the King used to go out of this tunnel, today we will go inside through this tunnel. Put the enemy soldiers clothes on suicidal soldiers and they will kill the enemy soldiers. If they can arrest Chaanakya and Chandragupt, well and good, otherwise kill them. And be careful, Durdharaa should not be hurt even slightly. Our soldiers will attack from the tunnel, and we will attack from outside, from the gate and thus will kill them from both sides."

If you are near, you should be seemed far, if you are far, you should be seemed near; if you are weak, you should be seemed powerful, and if you are powerful, you should be seemed weak.

Chandragupt's soldiers wore the Fort's dead soldiers clothes and put their clothes on their body and made them sit on the wall of the Fort so that outsiders can consider them as the enemy's soldiers. Amaatya and Bhadrasaal came to the door and started to break it ========================================

This time we will not run away, rather we will face them and protect Raaj Griha people. Remember the Time and Counting.

Chaanakya's soldiers set the fire in the tunnel. Amaatya's soldiers were breaking the front door. Amaatya and Bhadrasaal looked at the wall of the fort, Chandragupt was standing above. Ahiryaa ahd completed Champaa River's tunnel, so he went to Champaa River side taking all others with him. Chaitanya also went with Ahiryaa. Amaatya was looking at the dead soldiers set on the wall of the fort that the soldiers who were standing on the front door saw the fire. Durdharaa was passing by that she met Aachaarya.
Aachaarya said - "I called you. You forget Chandragupt."
Durdharaa said - "I cannot forget him. How did you think that I can forget him?"
==================================

Episode 92
Chaanakya Tries to Change Mind of Durdharaa
"We have to go now."  "But how much?"  "Not that much." Both come to Chaanakya.
Chaanakya says - "He has seen a dream of United India and by now he is inside that dream. The coming Chandragupt will become Maurya. This path is not of admiration, but it is a Yagya for which great sacrifices have to be offered. You will not agree with me but a woman can make a man and even destroy also to him, but the strength of a woman is in her Bhakti (devotion), in complete surrender. Just think, one man is busy in making India united, and he keeps thinking about his wife, and in her love he is unable to take any decision, appropriate or inappropriate, justified or unjustified. His life is full of problems. I am not against love, but this small mistake can put his life in a great problem."

Durdharaa said - "Do not tell me to forget him."
Chaanakya said - "Fine, If you cannot live without him, then this love should be immortal, and to make it immortal, it is necessary to die. Can you die for him for your love? If you had killed yourself, still the Magadh could have not been free from tyranny. Your love has come in front of Chandragupt. You both can never meet together, that is why it is always good for you and all others to disappear from his life. I will take you to Amaatya, and he will take you to Paataliputra."
Durdharaa said - "I cannot sacrifice my true love for which I protested my own father for you, nor I can forget him."
Chaaanakya once again said - "This Braahman is begging Chandragupt from you."
Durdharaa said - "Please excuse me."
Chaanakya went away saying this to Durdharaa and giving some instructions to Meghaa - "As you have made up your mind, I have also made up my mind." Meghaa made Durdharaa and herself unconscious by smelling the powder. So both fell down on the ground unconscious.

Amaatya showed Bhadrasaal that those soldiers on the wall of the fort were kept only the dead soldiers by Chaanakya.

Chandragupt told Chaanakya that the fort's gate was about to break. Shashaank told that enemy's group was coming to them from South, so they should go out through Champaa River tunnel. Wherever they wanted to sprinkle the oil, they sprinkled it. The gate broke, Amaatya and Bhadrasaal came inside the fort. Chandragupt set the fire (where the oil was sprinkled).
Chaanakya said - "This is that fire which will spread in the whole Magadh." All came to Champaa River.
Chaanakya asked Chandragupt - "What are you thinking? Do you want to know where is Durdharaa?"
Chandragupt said - "When I did not see Durdharaa with me, I thought, that this was your decision. I never ask any question from you, just bless me."
Chaanakya said - "There is nothing like "unknown". They are all hidden only for some time, that is all, but after that some time passes, they all become known."

A soldier informed Amaatya that Durdharaa and Meghaa were found unconscious in a room.
Bhadrasaal said to Durdharaa - "Durdharaa, We came to Raaj Griha because of you, and now you are going to Paataliputra.

People are linked with their names according to their ethical relationship and then they put their life on stake for them. There are two reasons for war - some fight with a dream, and some are compelled to fight. That is why a good leader should not let die the wishes of his soldiers.

Amaatya and Bhadrasaal Return to Paataliputra
Bhadrasaal said to Amaatya - "I think we will tell the truth about his daughter, that his daughter loves Chandragupt."
Amaaatya said - "If we will tell him the truth, then also we cannot save our lives, so if we work jointly then it will be all right. Till good time does not come, try to live."
Bhadrasaal said - "But what will you do?"
Amaatya said to him - "I would do whatever will be in favor of Magadh. And you know, I know how to save ourselves from Nand. You just follow me."

Chaanakya and Chandragupt were passing through a forest.
Chandragupt looked around and said to Chaanakya - "I have never seen these flowers before."
Chaanakya said - "These are the flowers of Karanj which bloom once in 12 years. Whosoever sees them, they get blessed. All have their time at one time, because all is fixed from before. Nothing happens without reason, that is why I have brought you here. This is the time for that extraordinary war which could shake Magadh-like kingdom. Now first of all we have to kill Nand and take control of Paataliputra in our hands and then we will do whatever we will want."

Episode 93
Dhanaanand is Sad Over Losing Raaj Griha, Kills Bhadrasaal
When Amaatya and Bhadrasaal entered the palace Nand was getting beaten and was saying that we do not have any alternative except the fight. All three - Amaatya, Bhadrasaal and Durdharaa came there.
Dhanaanand said - "the Raaj Griha which is the symbol of rulership over Magadh, the birth of Nand Vansh. Chandragupt has taken away the same Raaj Griha from us, and you just kept watching? Amaatya, Whoever is responsible for taking our Raaj Griha, he must be punished, and he must be punished for this extraordinary crime."
Amaatya said - "But, Mahaaraaj, give me the chance to tell you that who is that traitor."
Nand asked - "Who is that traitor? Tell me his name." 
Amaatya pointed out towards Bhadrasaal. Bhadrasaal got stunned as what Amaatya was saying.

When Amaatya spoke against Bhadrasaal, Bhadrasaal blamed Durdharaa. He said - "This is true that Durdharaa loves Chandragupt, and she has helped Chandragupt."
Amaatya said - "There is one more crime of Bhadrasaal, that is that Chandragupt has taken away the whole gold from him. So he has Raaj Griha as well as gold. Ask him where is our gold?"
Nand got very angry at this, he said - "So you lost our gold also?"
Bhadrasaal said to Nand - "I have tolerated a llot. But you don't know that how big mistake you are committing?"
Dhanaa Nand pierced his dagger in Bhadrasaal's stomach, he fell down on the floor. Nand's guards threw him in the moat.
Nand said - "I am very happy today that Chaanakya and Chandragupt are out of our hand and our competitor is also killed. O Amaatya, Why not I should kill you too along with Bhadrasaal?
Amaaatya replied - "Because Chandragupt has built his army from your gold. Declare emergency in Magadh that nobody can enter in or go out of Magadh without your permission.

Chandragupt's army was increasing. Chaanakya said - "We will attack like an ant attacks an elephant."
Chandragupt asked - "But how we will do it?"
"Come you all with me to Paataliputra, and we will wait for an appropriate opportunity and make the plans too to attack. Chandragupt has to go to Asaakya. You will make them agree for fighting, because we cannot attack Nand alone."
Chandragupt asked - "But why that small kingdom will be with us?"
Chaanakya said - "You go there, you will get the answers of your questions."

Chaanakya said to Chandraggupt - "This is the time now for which you have tolerated so much pains, taken vow, lost your love. That was all for this time only. Now you can attack Nand. You will feel heavy heart. Till the judgmental time does not come, a man's mind is always cannot think properly, but you get your strength from the same."
Chandragupt said - "You are right. All past scenes have been in front of my eyes."
Chaanakya said - "Don't be so perplexed. All of us have come alone and go alone. Whatever has happened, has happened, leave it. Do good Karm and enjoy its good results."

Bhadrasaal is Alive, Chaanakya is in Paataliputra, Chandragupt in Asaakya
Bhadrasaal was not dead yet. He said to himself pointing his wound - "Chandragupt is the main reason of my sorrows. You will meet Bhadrasaal soon." Till I have got my respect back in the eyes of Nand, I will not treat this wound."

Chandragupt was going towards Asaakya, and Chaanakya, Shashaank, Chaitanya and Ahiryaa were going towards Paataliputra.
Amaatya had increased security in the city.
Nand said to Amaatya - "Find out all about Chandragupt."
Chaanakya said - "As much expectations, as much sorrows. We cannot go back. We will enter Paataliputra in these conditions only."  "But how?"
Chaanakya said - "We need a cart full of dung cakes." Shashaank and Ahiryaa managed to get a cart of dung cakes.
Chaanakya said - "The cart will be driven by Chaitanya becaue nobody knows him in Paataliputra."
He gave him a few gold coins and said - "These coins are not ordinary coins, they are royal coins. Only the ruler can give these cons. If you will give them, your many works will be done easily." So Chaitanya started sriving the cart and all others hid in that cart under the dung cakes.

Chandragupt came in Asaakya. There was a wrestling going on, so Chandragupt also joined. He kept losing, so he said to his opponent - "I do not want to wrestle with you. My Aachaarya has sent me to take help from you."
The opponent said - "Aachaary said to me too that some brave man is coming to see you, but you don't look like a brave man."
Hearing this Chandragupt defeated him. Chandragupt asked him - "What else Aachaarya said to you?"
Then the youth introduced himself to Chandragupt - "I am Digvijaya. I am sorry, my soldiers brought you up here taking as a illegal immigrant." Digvijaya then ordered his guards to change Chandragupt's clothes. Chandragupt instructed them not to throw away those clothes.

Nand said - "They have taken away our flag and hoisted their own flag. This is our insult, this is Nand Vansh insult.

Chaanakya Enters Paataliputra
People were going inside Paataliputra. Chaitanya also entered, but found Amaatya standing just in front of him.
Amaatya asked - "Where are these dung cakes going?"
Chaitanya replied - "In the palace."
Amaatya asked - "Palace? Why?"
The then Meghaa came there and replied - "I have got these dung cakes from Kusumpur. We are doing a Havan (Yagya) for the Princess."
Then she said to Chaitanya - "Take them carefully under your supervision."

A spy has brought a message from Asaakya. So Meghaa asked Badar Bhatt to take the cart inside and she herself stood as guard. She said to Badar hatt - "You take this dung cake cart to palace, because Amaatya will surely come to inspect this cart."

Aachaarya had made the plan to kill Nand, but it could not be implemented alone. It needed the participation of whole Paataliputra.
Chaanakya said - "I need 10,000 soldiers. If our mission has been unsuccessful, then we are gone, and if it has been successful, we will be the King of Magadh."
Whenever you will need me I will come with my 10,000 soldiers.

Chaanakya Stays in a Bar
Chaanakya etc came to stay in a bar. Ahiryaa asked him - "How will you live here? This place is not appropriate for you to live."
Chaanakya said - "Amaatya will also think in the same way. But this place will be all right with the viewpoint of safety and security. Because where the liquor flows, it is easy to get information there."
Chaanakya gave dice to Shashaank and asked him to play in the bar.
Shashaank asked - "To whom I have to give a defeat?"
Chaanakya said - "See that man. His name is Chaturaanan. he is the chief od Internal Security. he will help us, so we have to make him friend. You make him so much helpless, that he should do the same whatever we tell him to do. But Amaatya should not know at any cost. People loose many things in dice game, even their soul too. Never make any mistake. Always remember that we are implementing our plan under the nose of the King." Shashaank started his game with Chaturaanan and defeated him easily.

One spy told Nand that Chandragupt was planning to attack Magadh joining with Asaakya's army.
Dhanaanand said - "If he will do this, Asaakya will be disappeared from the Earth. Attack Asaakya immediately. We have to get is join us."
Amaatya said - "This is not an easy task. There is a big river between us. If we cross it, it is all right, otherwise our all soldiers can be killed."
Nand said - "It seems that Asaakya's Prince must have been helping Chandragupt with some personal reason. Find out what does he want from Chandragupt. We will give him double of it." Amaatya went to see Asaakya Prince.

Chandragupt asked the permission from Digvijaya to leave, Digvijaya said - "So soon? Today I have made the arrangement of hunting, so go after that." Chandragupt stayed back.

Amaatya Came to See Digvijaya.
Chaanakya - "Attack on the enemy's weak aspect, surprising him." Chaanakya had made a destructive chemical mixture which could blow out. It would send Nand in astonishment. Chaanakya was sick. Blood started appearing in his cough. Chaanakya had warned his people around not to inform Chandragupt about it. Meghaa told Chaanakya that Amaatya had gone to Asaakya.
Chaanakya said - "Any trouble can be faced with patience and discipline, so keep patience. Rulership has that Power which can make others one's own. Amaatya has gone there to Digvijaya so that he can prepare him to deceive us."

Amaatya was explaining to Digvijaya - "Magadh army is ready to attack you. We are safe. It may be possible that you can stop magadh's 1,000 elephants. But then Magadh will send its horses, suppose you can stop them also. Then it will send 20,000 soldiers, at that time, you will not be able to stop our army even after sacrificing your last soldier.
