Chapter 995: Rights
In one of Ankara's mansions, Kemal was anxiously walking back and forth in the courtyard. The anxious look on his face is very obvious, which can be seen at a glance.
Perhaps it is precisely because he knows what Kemal's mood is at the moment, so in the house, almost no one dares to come forward to disturb Kemal, even the closest people to Kemalββββββ although the current Kemal is not the later 'father of Turkey', let alone have that unique right, and today's Turkey is still the original sultanate, but in today's Turkey, Kemal has vaguely had some rights to say something.
It is also because of this that few people in the Turkish government and the Turkish army today dare to disobey Kemal.
Just when Kemal was looking anxious, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside.
In this atmosphere, Kemal was very anxious, and a chaotic sound at this time naturally attracted Kemal's angry eyes. However, when he found out that the owner of his footsteps turned out to be an officer under his command, and he specialized in managing communications and liaison work, the anger on his face suddenly subsided, and was replaced by a trace of eagerness. "How..."
Having followed Kemal for such a long time, the officer naturally knew what Kemal was asking. And it is especially important that there are probably few Turks who are not clear about what is happening at the moment.
"I just got the news that the Russians have been blocked..."
Saying this, the officer's face couldn't help but show a hint of joy.
"Not so long ago, it seems that the Russians are being blocked in an unknown place. There, presumably, there were nearly 10,000 routs from previous battles. Relying on the favorable terrain to block the Russians layer by layer. The Russians' offensive is fierce at the moment, but it seems that they will not be able to break through their defenses in a short period of time..."
Hear this. That Kemal breathed a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately, it's blockedβ" said Kemal, looking at the officer just now. By the way, who is the officer who commands the troops? What's it called, and why haven't you been in contact for so long? β
"The commander of the troops seems to be a colonel named Carter, originally a member of the 23rd Infantry Division. In this battle against the Russians, the regiment was also ordered to move in the direction of the front line, but because of the distance and the fact that the previous rout was too fast. So before they could reach the front, the front line collapsed. β
Then the unit seemed to build fortifications on the spot, and at the same time stopped the routs and deserters on the front line, incorporated them into the army, and reorganized them, and finally the infantry regiment of more than 1,000 men was expanded to the present level of nearly 10,000 men. As for why we have not been contacted, it is because at present our army's radios are only assigned to the main forces, some of the more minor units. Only subordinate to the regimental level..."
"So powerful," Kemal said in surprise when he heard the officer's words. In this way, the colonel named Carthus still seems to be a rare talent. Why had I never heard of him in the past? β
It is no wonder that Kemal was so surprised, after all, the series of things he just mentioned, including the construction of fortifications on the spot. There is also the reorganization of the army and the defense against the Russians, which is definitely not something that ordinary soldiers can do. Even Kemal himself may not have this self-confidence. That's right. He was indeed revered as the Father of the Turkish Nation in later generations, but that doesn't mean he really had any great abilities.
Can defeat the Greeks. It was also purely because of the help of the Russians, and the fact that the Greeks themselves did not have much strength.
But the Greeks are weak, everyone knows this, but the Russians are powerful, Kemal is still relatively clear. In any case, after all, it was also the original Turkish officer. I have dealt with the Russians a lot, and of course I know very well the fierceness of the Russians. What's more, many of those soldiers are some routs, what the rout is Kemal has been in the army for so many years is still very clear, the so-called rout actually refers to a group of soldiers who do not have any will to fight.
Even if such a soldier really goes to the battlefield, it is definitely like a piece of paper, the kind that is completely ready to collapse at the touch of a button.
But the fact that such a group of soldiers could withstand the onslaught of the Russians really made Kemal curiousββββββ he would not think that the Russians were in vain, after all, the Russians had just defeated a much larger Turkish army not long ago.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
Perhaps it was because of what he had just said that Kemal had a feeling that Carter was a talent.
At the same time, looking at Kemal's appearance, for some reason, the officer suddenly did not have the courage to continue the next words.
However, although he was in a state of excitement, Kemal was Kemal after all, and as soon as he paused, Kemal soon noticed an anomaly. After glancing at the expression on the officer's face and frowning slightly, Kemal couldn't help but speak.
"What's wrong? Is there anything else, huh? β
"Yesβ" The officer finally spoke, though he hesitated for a moment. There is indeed one thing, and that is that according to the information we have received, it is not the colonel named Carthus who is currently controlling this force, but two other people..."
"Which two?" Even until this time, Kemal had not reacted, thinking that it was two young talents in charge of the commandββββββ from a certain point of view, he guessed correctly, but these two were either Turkish or otherwise.
However, Kemal then got an answer that he couldn't help but be taken aback.
"It's two Chinese..."
"Chinese?" Hearing this surprising answer, Kemal couldn't help but look at the officer. "What's going on?"
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
Looking at Kemal's current appearance, the officer also knew that it might not work if he didn't make it clear this time, so he hurriedly told Kemal the original thing.
In the learned. At the helm of power at the front are two former officers of the China Observer Mission. And these two officers first formed a team of overseers in the army. This unit was then used to incorporate the rout of the defense line, turning the infantry regiment, which was no more than 1,000 people, into an infantry division of nearly 10,000 men.
And also the officers among the routs. Together with other soldiers, they were sent to the front. He also executed a colonel and a brigadier general at the front, and put the commander of the original infantry regiment into custody. After almost 10,000 Turkish troops who were now fighting fiercely with the Russians on the front line, almost all of them were under the orders of two Chinese officers, Kemal did not know what to say for a while.
Kemal really didn't know what to do, after all, this time it was too bizarre. If it was a Turk who commanded the troops and took away the power of the troops, then Kemal would have done a lot easierββββββ he could do what he wanted.
The first is to look at what the backstage of these two people is like, which is also known as the background. After all, although Kemal's authority is getting stronger and stronger, he has not really reached the point of being invincible in the world.
Besides. It's just to see how others react, after all, the actions of these two people can be called bold. If the opinions of other people are too strong, even if these two people are meritorious heroes, Kemal has no way to protect the two of them.
In the end, it depends on the ability of these two people.
It's just that...
Nowadays, it seems that there is no need to think about anything...
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
"General, those two Chinese are so bold, what should we do now..."
Seeing that Kemal seemed to be speechless, the officer stepped forward two steps. I couldn't help but ask softly.
"What should I do..."Hearing him ask, there was a pause, and Kemal couldn't help but smile bitterly. What else can we do now, the front line is the time for fierce fighting on all fronts. The troops drawn from the Mediterranean coast and from the south were still on the way, and it was almost impossible to reach the Caucasus in a short time, and the number of troops in the vicinity was overwhelming. If those two Chinese are punished at this time, I don't know how much chaos it will bring. It may even affect the morale of the front-line troops, and collapse the already strong defensive line. β
"Besides, at the moment, we are already at war with Russia. This Russian attack shows once again that they have a grudge against us. At this time, we need a backer, as a backer, the British and the French are a little too far away, it is impossible who calls whom, although the Chinese have a gap with us, but Britain and France are the same, and China is the closest to us, and even for the colonies in the Middle East, it is impossible to allow the Russians to go south, in this case, in addition to the Chinese, who else can be our backer? Since we are backers, if we punish their people, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among the Chinese..."
Speaking of this, Kemal couldn't help but sigh as well.
Regarding Wang Ruhui and He Wenyuan's actions, Kemal was naturally extremely dissatisfied. After all, two Chinese came to command the Turkish army, and even detained the commander of the army without authorization, and at the same time shot two of them, which was certainly unacceptable to Kemal.
However, now is obviously not the time to deal with these two people, not to mention that the backstage of these two people is not something that Turkey can provoke at the moment. At least for a short time, Kemal seems to have no choice but to swallow his anger...
"Well, there's got to be a way to..."
Seeing that Kemal didn't seem to be able to think of any way, the officer couldn't help but say with some frustration.
Although he and Wang Ruhui did not have any grudges, what did Kemal lead the army to fight against Britain, France and Greece in the first place? Isn't it because he's a nationalist? It is also because of this relationship that almost all of the people who followed Kemal earlier were nationalists.
And there is nothing more irritating to the nationalists of this age than to see people from other countries flexing their muscles on their own soil.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
"At the moment, it is basically meaningless to talk about punishment, so the most important thing at the moment is to find a way to deal with the aftermath, beyond that. Those two Chinese only have nearly 10,000 troops in their hands, right? With such a small number of troops, it is obviously impossible to hold back the Russians. I'm afraid that the front line is also about to reach its limit, in that case..."
Think so. After a moment's silence, Kemal spoke directly to the officer.
"Write it down, reorganize the troops currently fighting in the Caucasus direction into the 37th Division of the Turkish Army, and appoint those two Chinese as temporary acting division commanders and chief of the general staff of this infantry division."
"In addition, order the nearby troops to speed up to the front line, and at the same time give those two Chinese the right to govern all the surrounding forces."
Saying this, Kemal couldn't help but smile slightly bitterly...
"Since those two Chinese are so powerful, then give them enough rights." I just hope they can perform a miracle and hold out until the follow-up reinforcements arrive..."
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
In Kemal's opinion, anyway, since the acting division commander and the like have already indicated that they are agents, it will be very simple to remove them in the future.
But while this may seem simple, it's not...
At least, after having the title of acting division commander, both Wang Ruhui and He Wenyuan can be more obedient when commanding the troops...
Uh-huh, sorry. Absolutely make up for it in half an hour!!
