Chapter 2025: Soldiers in Istanbul
Although the two China are far apart, there is a clipper to pass the news.
Every month, there are Foget-style fast boats that travel between the two Chinas, and even travel.
This is the world's first-class ocean-going clipper. If it runs, it can fly over the sea like a light seagull.
As a modern Xiaoqiang, Yan Changwu is very aware of the role of "information", so he does not hesitate to maintain such a communication path.
Therefore, the things of Ming Dynasty have also spread to the line. Pick meaningful things to convey to the officers and soldiers. Of course, there is the matter of the Ming army regaining the Western Regions. Like the glorious deeds of General Guo Xin against Tubo for fifty years, it is naturally worthy of a great tree. Xu Yong knew it.
The Southeast Army's attack on the Ottoman Empire was actually an unjust war.
That old Ottoman officer was the Ottoman version of General Guo Xin.
Although it is hostile, it deserves admiration.
Alas, Xu Yong shook his head, feeling sentimental!
No matter what, the battle has been fought until now, it must be fought anyway!
Xu Yong cleaned up his feelings and shouted: "Go ahead!"
Guns roared and the battle continued.
The Fourth Army's offensive was in a wave, and the four bosses all went to the front line to supervise the battle and command them forward.
This is a new tradition of the two Chinese armies, which comes from Yan Changwu.
The former Ming Army is the highest commander in the safest place, while the Southeast Army and the Xinming Army are commanded by the commanders. The commander appears wherever the most dangerous and difficult.
Because when Yan Changwu was fighting the enemy's fleet artillery battle, he stood on the front line and commanded the battle, facing the enemy's fiercest artillery fire.
With this boss, who would dare not fight!
The two Chinese military officers are indifferent to life and death, and they lead their troops to be invincible and invincible with the example of dare to fight, be good at fighting and victorious!
Yan Changwu threw a large piece of pork and declared that he would be crowned emperor in Istanbul.
The army officer below shouted: "When we hit Istanbul, everyone will be promoted and made fortune, and the children and grandchildren will be infinitely useful!"
Under the leadership of the bosses, the officers and soldiers of the Fourth Army launched a fierce attack on Baotou Man. In six days, they broke the enemy’s three lines of defense, killed 60,000 enemy troops, and killed two thousand soldiers and injured three thousand. .
It was a blood stream, and no matter how much Baotou fought, he couldn't escape.
Now the Southeast Army is attacking the enemy's last line of defense. Its core position is a city. Under the constant bombardment of artillery, the city is broken down at a speed visible to the naked eye.
...
On the torn wall, Baotou General Nicholas John Pasha looked at the Southeast Army in the distance and sighed.
The opponent's offensive Lingli, if it weren't for the city's height, would have knocked down the Southeast Army.
However, they are building fortifications and installing "Iicheng Cannons"!
Thinking of the **** Yicheng Cannon, Pasha felt gloomy.
He knew that if the cannon was installed, it would be a hard fight. He calmed down and ordered the soldiers to prepare pen, ink and paper for him. He wanted to write to his family.
Pasha leaned back against the sandbags amid the constant gunfire of enemy troops outside the city, and devoted himself to writing letters to his family.
He described the heroic defense of the Ottomans, the breakdown of the defenses, and his personal frustration because he had no ammunition and arrows to launch.
"...Those young guys, they don’t have armor or even a shield, so they charge with a knife, and we no longer have ammunition and arrows to cover them, watching them die in vain and fall apart. Under the bullets and arrows of the believers, you cannot become a warrior!" Pasha wrote in pain.
"I have to do my personal responsibility, I will never tarnish my honor, I hope you all will cherish yourselves, goodbye, I will end this decision, don't believe me, and wait for death to come!"
...
After writing this letter, Pasha selected a young soldier and asked him to take the letter and send it back to Istanbul without having to return to the army.
Pasha was kind, but what he never expected was that the soldier who sent the letter was on the way back to Istanbul and was killed by the special forces infiltrated into the rear by the Southeast Army, and the letter fell into the hands of the Southeast Army.
A few years later, this letter was exhibited in the Military Museum of the City of Rising Sun. It was a letter from the family of an Osman Pasha with a pair of ponytails, which was of historical significance.
...
The huge artillery fired with deafening sound. It hit the wall like the sky and the earth cracked, and the masonry and mud scattered all over the sky.
The wall was knocked down and a gap appeared!
The destructive power of the Yicheng Cannon is unparalleled, and only a small amount of strong city can resist their invasion power. This city wall is not.
The dust hadn't settled yet, and when the smoke was still in the air, a cavalry of the Fourth Army took the lead and rode up on the low **** of the collapsed city wall.
His figure disappeared into the city.
How could the other Southeast Army be able to hold it back, and immediately violent, swarmed, and rushed to the gap.
But the Baotou guys in the city rushed to the gap with a mortal heart.
As a result, the battle between the two sides over the gap turned into a hand-to-hand battle. The gap was narrow, everyone put in troops, face to face fiercely ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ the soldiers have been stranded together.
The Baotou officers rushed to the gap desperately, and fought hand-to-hand with the Southeast Army at the gap. The two sides hacked at each other, crowded with airtight. Baotou's casualties were heavy, and the Southeast Army's casualties over there were not light. The blood flowed like a river along the slow **** of the gap, and the corpses rolled down the city, piled by piles. The city was also full of dead bodies, and the wounded could not be transported in time.
The firepower of the Southeast Army extended to the city, aiming at the enemy's 100-meter front line to intercept and shoot, isolate Baotou Lao's follow-up troops, and make Baotou Lao Second Echelon unable to reinforce it.
Cannonballs and bombs are projected out like raindrops. This is a good tactic for the Southeast Army to fight for a long time, and it must be used by local tyrants.
Facts have proved that this tactic has played a key role in the victory of the battle. In front of several "fire walls" formed by the intensive blocking of artillery fire, Baotou guys still continue to charge a rare thousand-person charge, going forward and following, regardless of casualties.
The Baotou guy who was able to pass the "Wall of Fire" immediately went into a hand-to-hand battle, and the battle was unprecedentedly fierce.
Later, the former leader of the city of Tekirda, Cartel Useli Pasha, rushed up. He ran away before, but this time he did not run.
He ate a bomb, his face was bloody, but he did not retreat, rushed to the gap, and died in the gap.
The leader of Baotou, Nicholas John Pasha, died on the streets of the city. None of the senior officers of this Baotou army surrendered. Although their soldiers were poor and equipped, they showed great momentum!
"No matter what, we won!" Li Laiheng said wearily.
Yes, the road to Istanbul has been opened up, the Fourth Army continued to advance, and the scout cavalry arrived outside Istanbul and saw the majestic city wall!
