1890 King of Southeast Asia

On July 21, after three days of rest, the 106th Regiment launched a rapid assault.

Four hundred vehicles of various types, carrying two battalions of 800 people and four 105 howitzers, marched 200 kilometers in six hours and detoured to Hadesa, a city on the upper reaches of the Tigris River located on the border of Mesopotamia.

At this time, Hadesa was a small city (or town?) with a population of only more than 3,000, but the surrounding land was relatively fertile and there were many farmers.

"Miscalculated..." Zhang Zhilong, the head of the 106th Regiment, looked at Hadesa with some toothache.

Hadesa is not a military fortress, there are no buildings such as walls, and it is an agricultural production city formed around several small river bays.

The characteristic is that the distribution of buildings is very messy, and the agricultural and commercial areas in the city are interspersed with each other. Perhaps in order not to occupy precious arable land, or perhaps for safety reasons, most of the houses are on high ground, and the lowlands have been reclaimed into wheat fields.

In summary - this is an extremely backward agricultural town...or a market town.

But this has brought certain difficulties to Nanhua.

"Enemy?" The artillery captain held a telescope and looked at a group of people in ragged clothes and holding strange weapons gathering.

"I saw there were children inside, and they didn't even have a proper weapon..." A young-looking man operated the artillery telescope.

Looking at his clothes, he was still a student uniform, obviously still a military academy student, but looking at the warrant officer rank on his shoulder, he looked like an intern.

"Juemin! I will teach you a lesson today." Zhang Zhilong looked through the telescope, was silent for a while, then put down the telescope and said to the students.

"Artillery company!" Zhang Zhilong shouted with full energy.

"Yes!" The artillery captain responded.

"The enemy is gathering, this is a good opportunity, the whole company will shoot three rounds at high speed." Zhang Zhilong tidied up the holes all over his body and folded his collar and cuffs carefully.

"Yes!" The artillery captain's face remained unchanged and took the artillery telescope from Lin Juemin, whose face changed drastically.

"Artillery company, get ready!" The company commander put on the gun mirror and shouted.

The artillerymen began to get busy. Six soldiers took the cannon off the tractor and started digging holes and filling sandbags.

The other two soldiers carried the shells, checked and installed the fuses, checked whether the shells were deformed, etc., and then helped dig holes.

Ten minutes later, the cannon's hoe was put into the newly dug hole, and the soldiers could fill the soil and press it with sandbags. Everything was ready.

"Horizontal coordinate, vertical coordinate 5880, distance 2460, one round of loading." The company commander determined the position after several estimates.

"Good!" The commander raised the flag and waved it fiercely.

Boom!

In the distance, the Mesopotamians (official name is this, there was no Yi at that time.) were still in chaos, with a feeling that the soldiers could not find the generals and the generals could not find the soldiers.

boom!

A cloud of dust rose in the northeast of the crowd. It was unknown how many people were killed or injured, but they were even more confused.

"Left 1, everyone, three rapid shots." The artillery company commander nodded and calculated for ten minutes. The distance was less than 3,000, so it was reasonable to hit the first shot.

Boom...

"You are excellent students. You will lead the troops directly after graduation. You know more about the ancient sayings than I do, but I know better than you that kindness cannot lead the army." Zhang Zhilong said seriously.

Behind him were the excellent students of the South China Army University. Yang Tao stuffed a lot of them into the third and fourth divisions.

"Young birds always have to fly on their own. If they can't even withstand this little wind and rain, how can we expect them to defend the country in the future?" This is what Yang Tao said to his opponents.

After these people entered the army, they were placed in various battalion headquarters in the name of interns to adapt to the atmosphere of war.

"Everything is going smoothly here. It's better to send them into the rain forest and play hide-and-seek with the natives than to come here." Wang Xu complained like this.

Sure enough, as a policy-based overseas student, Lin Juemin was admitted to Nanhua University. Half a year later, he dropped out and entered the Artillery Command College of Nanhua Army University.

With excellent grades in all subjects, he was awarded the honorary rank of warrant officer and was assigned to the ace 106th Regiment.

However, after arriving on the battlefield, Lin Juemin's performance disappointed Zhang Zhilong.

"War should not involve the elderly, the weak, women and children, but there is another point, there are no bystanders in war." Zhang Zhilong handed the telescope to Lin Juemin.

"When the elderly, the weak, women and children pick up a gun, he is not a weak person, but an enemy! This is a principle you must remember and abide by. If you can't do it, you should leave the army and become a scholar or businessman." Zhang Zhilong said earnestly.

"Shouldn't we be the righteous side?" Lin Juemin held a telescope and looked at the Mesopotamians who fled in all directions after the dust settled.

People can be vaguely seen moving on the ground, and more white robes are scattered on the ground, clearly visible.

"The enemy has dispersed, and we are in big trouble..." The political commissar muttered to Zhang Zhilong.

Zhang Zhilong has taken all his work. Shouldn't he, the political commissar, be responsible for educating the next generation?

And according to experience, the enemy is organizing the offensive formation. Shouldn't we wait for the enemy to rush up and kill as many enemies as possible?

Now, a round of shelling may have killed one or two hundred people? But more people fled in all directions. Whether they escaped or insisted on staying to resist, it was a problem.

"I hate them for not fighting. The pressure on the shoulders of this generation of young people is heavier than ours. At that time, we were not afraid of those wearing shoes. No matter who we hit, we would die at most. What about them? They are wearing shoes." Zhang Zhilong smiled.

"Juemin, I know it's hard for you to accept it for a while, but this is the fact. When they picked up the gun, they were no longer children or old people.

You still have many comrades-in-arms. They have their own parents, wives and children. I hope you can understand this." The political commissar paused here.

"The enemy is too scattered, and we are not well prepared. You follow the truck company and support the follow-up troops. What do you think, regiment commander?"

Zhang Zhilong glanced at Lin Juemin and nodded: "Logistics is the foundation of an army. It is better to start with logistics."

"Xiao Liu, take them to report to Captain Zhang and let Captain Zhang teach them how the troops operate." The political commissar said to the guard.

"Yes!" The guard saluted and turned to Lin Juemin: "Please."

Lin Juemin straightened up, saluted, turned around and left.

Zhang Zhilong looked at his back, "Young man, you have never suffered much, and you are from the Qing Empire. It is normal that you can't accept it."

The political commissar also nodded: "How to fight this? People are scattered, and it is a waste of time to catch them one by one."

"It's just a group of rabble. Prepare the firepower for half an hour." Zhang Zhilong said indifferently.

The political commissar looked at the scattered buildings. It was impossible to use barrage or covering artillery bombardment in this state. Not much could be bombarded in half an hour.

"Reconnaissance Company, go! Capture a few messengers around." Zhang Zhilong turned and left, with the roar of cannons behind him.

…………

The 106th Regiment took the mechanized advance and went around the enemy. His comrade-in-arms and competitor, the 105th Regiment, took the firepower assault.

To say the difference between the two, the former is mainly based on movement, supplemented by attack; the latter is mainly based on attack, supplemented by movement.

At 6 a.m. on July 21, three South China airships took off from the temporary landing field in French Syria, carrying more than 20 tons of bombs and slowly ascended.

At 12 noon, three airships belonging to the South China Air Force Strategic Support Brigade arrived in the airspace near Qaim.

"The longitude and latitude coordinates are normal, just around here." The bombing mission was carried out by Ma Cang, who once commanded the bombing of Istanbul.

"Contact the army, where are they?" Ma Cang held a telescope and observed their target - Qaim.

After graduation, Ma Cang officially joined the South China Air Force and became the commander of the first batch of bombers in South China.

Because of the principle of confidentiality, bombers were not used in this battle. Ma Cang, who had commanded the airship bombing, was pulled out to continue commanding the airship.

"No response." The telegraph operator had been calling for half an hour, but there was no response.

"Maybe they are not here, turn left 35 degrees, pass over Qaim, explore and observe the surroundings." Ma Cang frowned.

The 105th Regiment is an old ace. Its predecessor was a complete technical branch of the army and the soldiers were of high quality. They should not be late.

"Smoke was found on the right, suspected to be an explosion." Just when Ma Cang was hesitating whether to report to his superiors, the observer spoke.

Ma Cang took the telescope and looked to the right. He saw nothing in his Zeiss 6x telescope, so he sat in the observer's position and used the 20x telescope on the aircraft to finally see a bunch of smoke.

"Where are they going and what are they doing?" Ma Cang was sure that they were his own people, because the Mesopotamians could not have so many artillery.

But this was not in line with the plan. According to the plan, the 105th Regiment should move within 20 kilometers of Qaim at this point to conduct an air-to-ground joint operation.

There were not many defenders in Qaim, and an aerial bombing directly into the city could both deter the Mesopotamians and reduce unnecessary consumption.

"Contact the 105th Regiment!" The telegraph operator said softly with his eyes fixed.

"105th Regiment telegram." After the telegraph operator finished writing, he handed it to Ma Cang.

Ma Cang frowned as he read it: "What is it!"

"What's wrong?" the instructor asked.

"Let us go back." Ma Cang handed the telegram to the instructor.

Word five or six 彡 74 7 7 7 5

"This..." The instructor also frowned as he looked at it.

"During our regiment's march, we encountered the enemy coming to support from the west and had a direct exchange of fire. We are currently chasing the remaining enemy and destroying their living forces. The original plan cannot be carried out. Please ask the air force to return first."

"No wonder we can't get in touch with them. We are chasing people." The instructor put down the telegram.

"What should we do now?" The instructor looked at Ma Cang.

"Throw away the bombs and go back!" Ma Cang shook his head.

Bombs cannot be taken back. This is the rule. If they are not thrown away on the battlefield, they can be thrown away anywhere. Bombs are not allowed to be carried back to the airport.

"Target Qaim, high-altitude bombing." Ma Cang said to the telegraph operator and turned to walk behind the warehouse.

After a while, three airships lined up and slowly came over Qaim.

"Mom, what is that?" The girl with a headscarf pointed to the sky and asked her mother who was wrapped up.

"Oh my god! What is that?" The mother was frightened and her legs were shaking.
