After the Mediterranean Expeditionary Force launched the Battle of the Dardanelles, the Russian Empire had already ceased any military operations against Constantinople.

On the one hand, this was because the Russian Empire was worried that Constantinople would fall into British hands, and the Black Sea Fleet still could not obtain its own access to the Black Sea, and on the other hand, it was also because Hindenburg and Ludendorff put too much pressure on the Russian Empire on the Eastern Front, and since the outbreak of the war, the Russian Empire has lost nearly 2 million people, Germany has captured nearly 400,000 Russian soldiers, and Austria-Hungary has captured nearly 300,000 people.

After the outbreak of the Battle of the Dardanelles, the Russian Empire transferred the Eighth Army attacking Constantinople to the Eastern Front, no longer putting any pressure on the Ottoman Empire, which was a huge bad news for Roque, after the Eighth Army was transferred, the Ottoman Second Army deployed around Constantinople was released, and after the Mediterranean Expeditionary Force landed in Bolayel, part of the Second Army had begun to move towards Borayère, trying to rescue the Fifth Army that had been cut off from the back.

After the annihilation of General Golz's First Army, the Second Army was the most powerful army in the Ottoman Empire, with more than 15 divisions and a total strength of 220,000 troops.

That's why Roque did everything he could to eliminate the Fifth Army, so that he could concentrate on dealing with the Ottoman Second Army.

The first to attack the Fifth Army was the Anzac, which had suffered heavy losses in the previous phase of the operation, and this time Brad Nancy had no more reason, and the Anzac beachhead troops recaptured Goba Heights with the help of aircraft, but after Mustafa Kimar shouted the famous phrase "I didn't let you attack, I told you to die, and after we died, the other units and their commanders will continue to fight!" After that, the Ottoman forces recaptured the Goba Heights and re-pinned the Anzacs in the cove where they had landed on a false landing.

This unknown cove has finally taken on a resounding name, now called "Anzac Bay".

After the Battle of the Dardanelles, another Anzac unit arrived in the Mediterranean, and Winston also placed this force under Roque's command, which caused a strong protest from Frenzi.

After the loss of Ypres, the British Expeditionary Force suffered heavy losses and was in dire need of new reinforcements.

Xia Fei didn't care about the situation in Ypres, and completely handed over the defense of Ypres to the British Expeditionary Force, Xia Fei did not have a plan to recapture Ypres, but planned to launch a new offensive in Shambany and Artois, there seems to be a competition between the British and French forces, everyone wants to be the leader of the coalition army, France has this strength, but Xia Fei is too stupid, Frenzi has this idea, but the British Expeditionary Force is seriously under-armed.

Under the premise of serious shortage of troops, Winston still stubbornly allocated valuable Anzac reinforcements to Roque's command, which caused Frenzi to be very dissatisfied.

Frenzi found his friend Charles Repington, an old comrade-in-arms of Frenzi, who had been working as a war correspondent for The Times after retiring from the army and was covering in Belgium.

Charles Rappington went against the Times's position by publishing a series of articles in The Times attacking Winston and Kitchener on the grounds that Winston had moved troops that had belonged to the Western Front to other theaters, and on the grounds that the British Expeditionary Force had not received enough shells.

No matter which battlefield the troops are transferred to, they are used to fight against the Allies, and this is understandable.

The lack of supply of artillery shells is an old problem, in fact, strictly speaking, it should be a shortage of artillery, this is not a problem that can be solved in a day or two, the artillery produced in Southern Africa since last winter is used to equip the Southern African Expeditionary Force, and Frenzi does not have the command of the Southern African Expeditionary Force.

"The Times" is Roque's industry, when he found out that his newspaper was attacking his close comrades, Roque was very angry, Charles Rappington was directly dismissed, and the editor in charge of layout review and text correction was also implicated, Lord North Rock came to Cyprus to find Roque, hoping that Roque would give the editors more freedom, but Roque decisively refused.

"I'm sorry Lord, in this world, no one has real freedom, even the power of the king has to be limited by Congress, how much freedom do you want as a newspaper reporter?" Roque was very disappointed with Lord North Rock, who had been doing well since Roque bought The Times, helping Southern Africa and Winston a lot.

But at this critical juncture, the Times reporters and editors chose the wrong position, a mistake that cannot be forgiven.

"The Times has never pandered to the public, and having an independent mind is the root of our existence, and if we show obvious tendencies, it will affect the impartiality of the Times." Lord Northern Rock seems to have a firm position, but in fact his position is untenable.

"You're wrong, the root of The Times' survival has never been independent thinking, but political necessity." Roque directly pointed out that no one should think about how important they are, if Lord Northern Rock does not agree with Roque's way of doing business, then Lord Northern Rock can also resign, and Roque will not keep it.

Now Roque doesn't have much to think about the Times, and the Ottoman Fifth Army on the Garibaldi Peninsula is the focus of Roque's current work.

In order to expand the influence of the "Times", Roque also tried his best, the bosses of other newspapers are all profitable, Roque does not aim to make profits, and uses the profits of the gossip "Sun" to subsidize the so-called justice of the "Times", in order to increase the sales of the "Times", Roque set the price of the "Times" at two pence a piece, which is almost the price of twenty years ago, if there was no subsidy, the "Times" would have closed its doors long ago.

Lord Northern Rock wanted to speak, but was directly stopped by Roque.

"In any case, it is impossible to be absolutely impartial in the reporting of newspapers and magazines, the Times is a British newspaper, so the Times has a position, we all know what is happening on the front, what reporters and editors have to do is to report on what is happening on the front, to gather the confidence of the people to win this war, instead of attacking the Minister of War and the Secretary of the Navy of the country when the world war is in full swing, this is simply ridiculous!" Roque did not deny freedom to reporters and editors, and some of the previous reports in The Times also carried private goods, as long as they did not cause much impact, Roque would turn a blind eye.

Lord Northern Rock was finally silent, he also knew that the "democracy" and "freedom" proclaimed by Britain were a joke, how could there be real democracy and freedom, and the newspapers and magazines of the belligerent countries during the world war all carried out similar slanderous reports on their opponents for propaganda, and the Times was no exception.

"Finding a way to eliminate the impact of bad news and prevent similar incidents from happening in the future, the legal department is going to file a lawsuit against Charles Repington, and for whatever reason, I don't want to see the name Charles Repington in future newspapers." Roque is going to kill them all, adults don't care about villains? Inexistent.

To put it mildly, if this incident has bad consequences for Kitchener or Winston, Rock has the mind to punish Charles Rappington, the current British War Department, Kitchener and Winston are Roque's biggest supporters, if they lose the support of Kitchener and Winston, then Roark and the Southern African Expeditionary Force will be struggling.

"Sir, please don't-" Lord Northern Rock begged, he knew that Roque was angry, but he didn't expect Roque to be angry to this extent.

Angel hurried over with a telegram at this time, and Roque was in an even worse mood after reading it.

The Anzac offensive failed, fifteen hundred men were killed and four thousand wounded, and the Goba Heights remained under the control of the Fifth Army.

"Look at the battle reports on the front line, at the moment we are chatting, there are 1,500 killed and 4,000 wounded, so what time is quiet, it's just that someone is carrying the weight for you." Under normal circumstances, when the coalition forces report the war situation to the outside world, their own losses will be halved, and the enemy's casualties will be doubled.

Lord Northern Rock didn't speak, his expression was complicated, the war did not burn on British soil, so the gentlemen in Britain, especially in London, did not feel the pain of the war, the casualties of the front-line troops were cold numbers for them, and they never thought about the tragedies of the families represented behind the numbers.

The commander of the troops guarding the Goba Heights was Mustafa Kimal, whose troops were less than a thousand men, and they were severely short of ammunition and food.

The Anzac Corps committed about one division of troops to the attack, limited to the width of the battlefield, and could only commit about one regiment at a time.

Mustafa Kimar's forces withstood several Anzac attacks, and the ground support aircraft bombarded the Goba heights again, but the incendiary bombs were not as effective as the defenders already had targeted defenses.

While the Anzac suffered heavy losses, so did the 402nd Division, a unit drawn from the Sultanate of Najd, nominally a cavalry division, but in reality all infantry.

Like the Southern African Servants, the 402nd Division was not equipped with artillery and did not have many machine guns, and a unit of the Ottoman Second Army was storming the 402nd Division's defensive line, which had lost nearly 3,000 men in a single day.

Zanders knew very well that if he could not break through the sniper defenses, the Fifth Army would be completely annihilated, which would be an equally heavy blow to the Ottoman Empire.

Now both sides are scrambling for time, the Mediterranean Expeditionary Force is to annihilate the Fifth Army before the line of defense is breached, and Zanders is to open the passage with the Fifth Army before the Fifth Army is annihilated.

At this critical juncture, Prime Minister Asquith announced the dissolution of the Cabinet.
