Well, that's how I'd handle the situation. It would be advisable to capture said castle after the majority of the Kahnid noyans and their Khan have just recently fought a major battle, and are low on troops. Get some lords on your side, preferably Kahnid, to support your cause, and make a stand at the castle should the Kahnid come at you in numbers. Be careful when assaulting the castle though, as the Kahnid are very archer-oriented, making the ascent on top of the castle walls a rather interesting experience. This castle is in a narrow passage, and should make it easy enough to defend or flee from if necessary.
Once you have about 20 mamlukes, the Sarranid melee horsemen, (gonna take some time, but given that Swadia's gone (they're always first to kick the bucket) and you're cutting into Vaegir and Sarranid territory, 20 should do it), defect and try to conquer their southern-most castle (forgotten its name). Make up for the lack of ranged units with some horse archers of your own though. They are excellent detergents towards Kahnid Horse Archers, because of their extreme resilience and armored horses. I suggest you build an army of Saranid Mamlukes.
