Of course, there was no chief of staff in the Ottoman Empire's establishment, but Ghazi's position in the army was equivalent to a think tank and chief of staff. With {dream} small ◢ say шщЩ.

He was entrusted by Farhad Pasha to rush to Syria early to find out the enemy's situation, and he didn't say a word of greeting to Farhad Pasha, and he was already accustomed to the straightforward way of asking questions, so he reported that "our army has been taking all in Syria one after another, but it was intercepted by the Chinese cavalry, and it failed to cross the line of the Sinai Peninsula, and their blockade was very strict, and there were so many of us who failed to break through to Cairo, so there was not much news......

Gazi's words were subtle, but they were full of anger, thinking that so many people stayed here, just not to break west, to delay the military plane!

As far as he knows, the number of Chinese cavalry should not be much, and he can think that the cavalry can be built into a large-scale army at once with his ass, do the Chinese have a supply of heavenly horses?

It is a pity that those tribes are afraid of the enemy like tigers, and will not listen to his persuasion, and Ghazi arrived early, and has no military power, so he cannot control them.

There was not the slightest shame on the faces of the generals for his accusations, and Farhad Pasha knew their virtues and did not pursue them in any way!

The Ottomans seemed to be quite large, but in fact they were self-contained, with only one-third of the troops under the authority of Farhad Pasha.

Ghazi struggled to gather some information, and he said, "According to some people who fled from Egypt, they formed the Cairo Municipal Council, which was joined by locals to cooperate with the Chinese to govern the ......"

Now everyone was angry, "What a dare, dare to betray the empire!" ”

In his heart, he was secretly rejoicing, "Hehe, there is an excuse to ransack Cairo!" ”

Think of Cairo as the best of Africa, where the wealth surpasses that of Damascus, and the quality of the people is greater, which would be worth a lot if you were to be enslaved.

There were still slaves in the Ottoman Empire, for example, the oar-scratching boats in their fleet were slaves, and the slaves of all countries and tribes worked in the miserable bilge, eating less and working much harder, and only death could be freed, including many white-skinned, various tribes, and even Chinese......

The high quality of the people in Cairo refers to the fact that there are many craftsmen, and craftsmen create more wealth than ordinary workers, and there are also many beautiful women there......

So the generals enthusiastically asked for battle!

Before, they were all lazy and refused to advance, but when Farhad Pasha came, they all wanted to do this kind of good thing.

So Farhad Pasha appointed the Tatar light cavalry commander Ilfani to cooperate with three other tribes as the vanguard to attack, the Tatar light cavalry had more than 8,000 cavalry, and the remaining three divisions had 4,000 cavalry, and tens of thousands of cavalry pressed over, which was a great pressure on any enemy army.

Then he selected brave soldiers from all the divisions, and each department selected one or two hundred, and five thousand troops, and guarded the central army, divided into two divisions, led by Khaldun and Muaz, plus 3,000 cavalry of the Janissaries, and 12,000 troops directly under Central Asia, and his central army had 20,000 men, which was much more stable.

He counted the army, and there were 170,000 troops, which was already quite a small strength, but he only sent cavalry first, and the army had not yet been dispatched.

He didn't leave, but the governor Adufu Pasha came to the door, and he reluctantly offered 300,000 taels of silver and a large amount of military supplies, begging them to go out quickly!

Farhad Pasha put 100,000 silver dollars in his pocket and distributed 200,000 silver dollars to the generals, which can be regarded as having a conscience!

The generals divided the 100,000 silver dollars, and the other 100,000 silver dollars were given to their subordinates.

Ativo Pasha sent them away like a plague god, and breathed a long sigh of relief!

The army marched out of Damascus and marched along the coast along the water, followed by a brigade of men led by the Hakka Abbuid to help transport the baggage. For a while, the road was mighty, like a long dragon, and the momentum was not small!

More than 100,000 people went on the expedition, endless crowds, endless baggage, endless horses, all flowing, and the people of Damascus saw that they were going out with this heroic army, and those infidels were waiting to repent!

Passing through Palestine, there was the holy place of Jerusalem, through which the army had not passed, and Farhad Pasha sent his son Ameni as a representative to go into the city and pray to the gods for a long journey.

Everything seemed to be going well, but Farhad Pasha always had a knot in his heart, because Ghazi said that the Chinese were building a new city in Cairo.

Building a new city?

Farhad Pasha had traveled to North Africa and visited the old city of Cairo, knowing that the walls there were in disrepair and difficult to defend, and even if they were fortified, the foundations were poor, and it was easy to be destroyed.

If the Chinese defend against the walls of the old city of Cairo, he can now reward the gods with a certain victory.

Do you really want to build a new city?

The Chinese have such the ability to build before the arrival of our army?

To build a new city, Farhad Pasha also did it in Europe, it took three years to build a small city, and the Chinese had God's help to build a city in three months?

He didn't believe it, but he actually had an idea in his heart that the Chinese were likely!

I was angry that I should have attacked early, but I didn't expect that it had been delayed for so long, and I really wanted the Chinese to build a new city, but I was afraid of trouble!

Ilfani's 12,000 cavalry poured into the Sinai Peninsula like a tide, and the southeastern cavalry saw that the enemy was strong, so they quickly slipped away!

"Coward!"

Hassan, the leader of the Advance Tribal Army, said contemptuously, he had a thousand light cavalry, and he was greedy for merit, and pursued him fiercely.

They only had a thousand people, and their courage was commendable, and they dared to chase after 3,000 people!

The two armies were chasing each other in the dunes, the dust was rising, and Hassan's troops were already a few miles away from the main force, biting behind the people.

"That's courage!" Hassan didn't expect that his immediate enemy was Hao Shaoqi, the general of the Southeast Army, who had fought to the death with the Tatars in North China, how could he be afraid of the enemy?!

The enemy advances and I retreat, and the enemy is outnumbered, I fight!

Call me!

Hassan gave full pursuit, and saw from a distance that the Chinese cavalry was tired and the horses were running slower and slower, so they drove the horses up and accelerated forward, preparing to defeat the Chinese cavalry in one fell swoop and get the first success!

They charged swiftly, their horses' hooves flying, bringing up dust, whirling wildly, drifting high so that even the rear troops could not see the situation.

When they rushed in front of the nearly stationary Chinese cavalry, thinking that the cavalry would be as easy to slaughter as beasts without claws without speed, the Chinese cavalry got out of the way, revealing light cannons!

Bang!

The salvo of sixteen guns was actually only one sound, and the artillerymen moved neatly enough!

The burst of shotguns swept through the Hassan department like a knife cutting tofu, causing at least 300 horsemen to be injured, and the people turned on their backs, and the Hassan department was in chaos!

Some people want to tighten the reins and run back to their horses, but their momentum is enough, how can they say that they will escape!

Hassan's blood-red eyes ordered the troops to move on!

He thought like a gambler and made a desperate bet, and quickly rushed to the front of the Chinese army, only to see them calmly raise their guns and fire together!

A quarter of an hour later, the rear of the Ottoman cavalry arrived with all their might, and when they saw dead bodies everywhere, they found Hassan's dead body, while the southeastern army in the distance calmly retreated, as if doing something insignificant!
