"We have won this war!" Yan Changwu's voice echoed in the conference room.

The senior officers of the three armies of the Southeast Army gathered together, their waists straightened, and listened to the summary of their leaders happily.

The rewards for them have been handed down, including titles, honors, military medals, positions, ranks, and bonuses.

It has always been the officers who have the most benefits, and the senior officers have more benefits, and both of them have made a lot of money.

The leader is not a stingy person, it is really good to like everyone's good, he is happy, everyone is happy, and everyone is happy.

The commanders are all marquis, although they are low-level marquis, but they finally have the rank of promotion, which is better than just watching the navy spend money and have no place to do it before.

The rest of the generals were either earls or viscounts, and those who were not military merit were not allowed to be knighted, and finally had a knighthood.

At one time, the officers and men of the navy ridiculed the army and said: "What's the use of raising you without fighting? You are the guards of our naval base! ”、

The brothers of the army could not show decent achievements, lacked confidence, and only felt that they were a little shorter, and now they could sit with the admirals confidently.

Yan Changwu said happily: "The Ottoman Empire is an out-and-out empire, they span three continents, the land is vast, the population is large, so that the Europeans are helpless, first the bridgehead area of Constantinople was captured, and then Greece, Macedonia, Cyprus and other regions fell, the Europeans could not take it back, and they suffered from the Ottomans." ”

"Their great geographical discoveries and the opening of the Age of Discovery, to a certain extent, are because they can't beat the Ottomans, and the trade routes between the east and the west are not connected, otherwise, who wants to sail in the unpredictable sea, have money to make, and have no life to spend!"

"We came across the sea from the east, thousands of miles away from the country, fought under the city of Cairo in the first battle, and destroyed 300,000 enemy troops in the second battle, which was a formed army, not a flat-headed people!" Yan Changwu raised his hand, made a false splitting motion, and said loudly: "We broke the backbone of the Ottomans!" ”

The analogy is very appropriate, the army is not a common people, you can't run a few laps on the playground, and a few times you can stand a few times to come in handy, the cultivation of a soldier or even the formation of a unit requires a lot of energy, money, blood and life, especially officers, senior officers, their road to promotion is often accompanied by a lot of white bones.

Why Ihsan Pasha was only punished for losing the battle is indeed hard to find, the imperial court hopes that he will suffer a loss and grow wise, and it turns out that after that, he coped with it properly, and the southeastern army had to retreat.

The army is not a cabbage, it can grow as soon as the spring rain comes, and the market comes in handy.

It can be said that the loss of 300,000 elite soldiers was a tragic loss for the Ottomans, and Ihsan Pasha could only watch the Chinese beat the drum of victory and withdraw from the front line unharmed with victorious steps, and he could not even organize an army to besiege the city of Damascus!

Defending at all costs, but attacking is a wasted sacrifice, and Ihasan Pasha did not want to repeat the old rut of the Battle of Cairo, so he had to endure it.

“…… We got Egypt, turned the territory of the three continents of the Ottomans into two, and the historic city of Damascus in Asia was also in our hands, and we were victorious! "So, the First Ottoman War is a foregone conclusion!

"I'm ready to go back to China, Mr. David is responsible for the affairs here, everyone must listen to him, support his work, the day of success, I will not be stingy, what do you want, tell me!" Yan Changwu's words caused bursts of laughter among the soldiers.

Beginning with Zhang Shouyun, the four army commanders Zhang Shouyun, Zu Kefa, Li Dingguo, and Li Chengdong expressed their stance one by one, insisting on supporting the leader's instructions, cooperating with the commander, Mr. David, and completing the tasks assigned by the leader.

Mr. David said that he would complete the task according to the leader's orders without compromise!

This is the characteristic of the southeastern country, after expressing one's position in public, words count, and cannot be violated, otherwise the reputation of saying one thing and doing another will be placed on that person's head, and the leader can also punish him!

Mr. David was given the title of "Cairo Camp Director", and his mission was to maintain the rule of the occupied territories, to fight the Ottomans outside, to suppress the rebellious population in the occupied territories internally, to ensure that the occupied territories were not recaptured by the enemy, and to find an opportunity to bite and cut the enemy.

The army left for his command was 200,000, all elite troops, quite a few, and there were enough forces to deal with the Ottomans.

The logistical supply pressure of 200,000 people is very high, and although there are many ships in the southeast, it is impossible to support the transportation of supplies from afar.

What's so hard about that!

As long as there is land, starving the Chinese?

The Chinese are the most suitable people in the world for immigration, and if the world's ethnic groups are placed in a strange region, the first to survive must be the Chinese.

The 1st and 5th armies stationed in the Cairo area, they tuntian!

In addition to the active military as temporary workers, the veterans of the old units retired and left slowly, and spent three years in the Nile Tuntian.

Establishment of the Egyptian Production and Construction Corps!

Surprised, surprised?

Egypt is really suitable for the establishment of the production and construction corps, the environment is similar to Xinjiang, there are Nile River conditions are even better than Xinjiang, now there is no large-scale development, the population is also small, some land is to accommodate the Chinese tuntian, not tuntian, do not set up the construction corps, there is no heavenly reason!

The Egyptian Production and Construction Corps undertakes the responsibility of reclamation and garrisoning the frontier entrusted by the leader, implements the system of integrating the military, government and enterprises, and manages internal administrative and judicial affairs on its own in accordance with the laws and regulations of the southeastern country in the reclamation area under its jurisdiction, and is under the dual leadership of the central government of the southeastern country and the Cairo camp, and is organized by corps, divisions, regiments, and companies.

"Reclamation and garrisoning the frontier is a historical heritage of China's thousands of years of development and defense of the frontier. The central government's large-scale reclamation of the frontier in Xinjiang in the Western Regions began more than 2,000 years ago in the Western Han Dynasty and has been followed by successive dynasties. Yan Changwu said loudly: "Our construction corps is different from Zhu Hongwu's Tuntian soldiers, and the members of the construction corps are militia, militia!" ”

Yan Changwu is characterized as an auxiliary army, practicing in his spare time, farming in his agricultural time, and everyone nodded secretly, this is a correction for the Ming Dynasty's Tuntian soldiers, a smart move!

The leader is wise, better than Zhu Chongba!

After Zhu Chongba founded the country, there was a proud move, that is, the establishment of the guard, the guard soldiers are the Tuntian soldiers, Tuntian in peacetime, wartime war, Zhu Chongba once proudly said: "I raise millions of soldiers but do not cost the people a grain of grain, unprecedented in ancient times!" ”

The ideal is very plump, the reality is very skinny, after Zhu Chongba, the generation is not as good as the generation, the Tuntian soldiers have no combat effectiveness, their quality has declined, their combat effectiveness is too weak, they can't beat the Japanese and Tatars, and finally entered the historical stage.

On the contrary, it is difficult to guarantee finances and supplies by using the regular army, and now the establishment of the Egyptian Production and Construction Corps as a supplement to the regular army is very appropriate, and there is no need to always use the regular army, and the militia can complete it with a few things.

At least, after the launch of the Production and Construction Corps, the troops stationed in Egypt will not have to transfer grain from overseas!

"The Nile region is very suitable for tuntian, and Egypt is the key to controlling Africa, in the long run, we must take Egypt in our hands, you take the first step, lay a good foundation, do a good job in the task of defending against the enemy and tuntian, and pay special attention to the role of the construction corps!" Yan Changwu taught the strategy face-to-face.

The generals left behind were ordered, and Mr. David asked: "So, how to deal with the religious affairs of Egypt?" ”

This is a sensitive topic, everyone looks at Yan Changwu and listens to his instructions!
