Paths of Glory

Within two months the Taliban had over 10,000 people in its ranks, who were inspired by its goals and achievements.

In three months the talibs controlled 12 provinces out of 31 and reached the outskirts of Kabul and Herat. Destroying Hikmetyar's forces, they have opened access to Kabul for the food trucks that were turned away by Hikmetyar. Massoud, however, has stopped the Taliban's advance towards the capital, and they turned their attention to Herat, capturing Shindand near it.

Two weeks later the Pakistanis sent a truck convoy with medicine to Central Asia. The convoy has been hijacked near Kandahar, and the Pakistanis asked the Taliban to intervene. The talibs attacked three days later, released the trucks, and killed the hijackers. The very same evening they attacked Kandahar itself and captured it in two days of fighting. Now they had their own air force with six fighters and six helicopters. None of them operational yet, however.
