1890 King of Southeast Asia

In January, just as the Qing army had just withdrawn from Fengtian in an orderly manner, a regiment of Nanhua Han Fei's troops also began to move.

In addition to its location in the heart of the desert, Kamaqwei has no special place and no terrain suitable for defense.

Han Fei's troops only took half an hour to complete the cleanup of the town's periphery, besieging four or five thousand merchants, craftsmen and two or three thousand Arab defenders in Kamaqwei Town.

A new problem was placed in front of Han Fei, how to ensure the integrity of the buildings while taking down this town with the least casualties?

"If a large-scale street battle is carried out, building damage is inevitable. We can't sacrifice the lives of soldiers for a few houses." Han Fei scratched his head irritably.

Artillery bombardment is also undesirable. If you want to take down this town with artillery bombardment, the scale of the bombardment must be large. Not to mention that they didn't bring so many shells at all, even if they did, the ruins after the bombardment were not what they wanted.

"It's a pity. We should have brought special weapons. If we had 200 rounds of No. 3 or even No. 2 shells, this wouldn't be a problem at all. Remember this in the future." The chief of staff smacked his lips and sighed.

What they faced was a real problem. No matter what tactics they used, large-scale damage to buildings was inevitable.

If they adopted a siege tactic, not to mention that they didn't have so much time, even the water supply alone would be a problem.

There was a water source in the town, but not outside the town. They brought their own water.

"Let's go in first and see what the situation is. Find someone to persuade them to surrender. We guarantee their safety." Han Fei put down the telescope, feeling somewhat helpless.

"That's the only way. But if we can't get a result today, then street fighting is inevitable. The main force is only seven days away from us. We can't wait until the main force arrives before we're done." The chief of staff racked his brains but couldn't think of a better way, so he nodded in agreement.

After deciding on the tactics, the Nanhua artillery began to exert its strength to clear the obstructions on the edge of the town to facilitate the reinforcement attack.

Boom boom boom...

The explosions continued, and the soldiers of the first battalion also gathered together, assigned combat tasks, and prepared to move forward.

"Captain, the enemy rushed out?" A staff officer exclaimed in disbelief.

Han Fei was sitting in the shade eating dry food. Hearing this, he turned over and climbed up, raising the telescope.

"Cavalry, definitely more than a thousand people, the configuration of a cavalry regiment, how can this town accommodate so many war horses?" Han Fei said in surprise.

"Their direction is... the artillery position, order the first battalion to stop the attack, find a shooting position on the spot, and deploy the regiment's machine gun firepower to the front line, don't let this group of cavalry run away." Many years of military career made him calm down quickly and issue combat orders in an orderly manner.

This is also because, from beginning to end, Han Fei was just surprised. This town should not have the conditions to place so many war horses, but he was not worried that the cavalry would threaten the artillery position.

The firepower of the Nanhua machine gun was decentralized to the squad level, plus the regiment's machine guns, dozens of machine guns formed a cross firepower, which was completely not enough for the cavalry.

"It's a big problem. These war horses shouldn't be owned by Arabs." The chief of staff said with a serious expression.

Boom, boom, boom...

Bang, bang, bang...

The sound of machine guns soon rang out.

"They are so tall, and they are well taken care of. One or two horses is fine, but Arabs shouldn't be able to afford so many." Han Fei heard this and observed carefully, and found a clue.

These rebellious Arabs are not poor, but they are just a mob. In essence, there is no unified country in Arabia, only tribes and tribal alliances.

A single tribe cannot afford to raise so many fine war horses. The large tribal alliance had long been wiped out by Nanhua and the small tribes.

"These war horses have been trained on the battlefield. This is not something that can be trained in a day or two." The chief of staff gritted his teeth and said.

The battlefield training of war horses means making the war horses familiar with the sound of guns and cannons, familiar with close-range explosions, so that they will not be startled by the sound of artillery or gunfire.

This is a long-term project. Basically, the war horses need to be trained from childhood, which requires a lot of ammunition.

If the horses had not been trained in the battlefield, they might be frightened by the sound of gunfire as soon as they entered the battlefield, and then start running around, causing chaos in their own formations - this situation has happened before.

"These horses all have the shadow of Arabian horses, either Ottoman or British." Han Fei found the problem when the chief of staff pointed it out.

The cavalry rushed towards the Nanhua artillery position with a classic wall-style charge, but before they rushed halfway, a cavalry regiment suffered more than half of its casualties and fell into chaos.

"This should be the Arabs' mobile corps. I don't know how many cavalry the Arabs have. Report to the division headquarters. The supply line cannot have any problems." The chief of staff saw the few hundred cavalrymen surrendering and turned to Han Fei.

He had already discovered the threat of the cavalry. This threat was not from the front, but from the rear. The cavalry could bypass the Nanhua army and attack the Nanhua supply line.

It didn't need to cause much damage, just mess up the supply line, and Nanhua would have to divide its troops to surround the supply line.

The Arabs haven't realized it yet, but they will not be unaware of it forever.

"There should be about 1,200 to 1,300 people, right? We have killed several hundred people when clearing the periphery. The defenders in the city may be less than a thousand..." Han Fei racked his brains.

"The more that, the more calm, who knows if they will jump the wall in a hurry? You don't know these Arabs, there is one of them as a neuropathy and a mad believers." The chief of staff woke up Han Fei.

"Indeed, I really don't understand what they think. If their God is really so powerful and blesses them, where will they be small for hundreds of years in a row? This will not understand, there is a deserve today."

After the surplus cavalry surrendered, the artillery recovered the shell against Kamakway, put the machine gun as soon as possible, and prepared to attack again.

Suddenly, the sound of artillery stopped.

"The white flag rose in the town! Well? It's going down again." The emotional emotional emotion was interrupted.

"Look, someone comes out." Chief of Staff pointed at the town.

I saw a large group of Arabs wearing white robes or blacks running out of Camecwell, holding up their hands to the South China position.

"Go to the Arabic for a few Arabic, let them not get close to the position, get closer to the Nanhua banner, and then squat on the ground with both hands, we guarantee their safety."

Boom ~~

Suddenly, a huge explosion came from the city, and the thick smoke rose.

"Go, the one in front of the run, catch it!" Han Fei needed to understand the situation.

Nympho

Soon, the soldier brought a strong fat man to the regiment, and he ran at the forefront of the team he negotiated to Han Fei.

"A fat man, running so fast, it is really impossible to look." Han Fei murmured to himself.

"Name, occupation." Chief of Staff began to inquire.

"Dadeley Mohammed, businessman, runs 16 shops, I am the largest businessman in Kamakway City, don't kill me, I give you money, I have money! A lot of money"

"Shut up, what happened in the town? Why escape?"

"Tilier's cavalry failed, the lunatic in the city wanted to resist to the end, and he wanted to pull us funeral. Some of the rational soldiers took the citizens to resist and ignited the arsenal. "" "

"How many defenders are there in the city? Where do you come from ..."

"Reports, some people say that they represent the defenders in the city and want to negotiate with the head of the regiment." The arrival of a soldier interrupted the conversation.

"Tell him, let go of his weapons, come out to surrender, we guarantee his life safety." Han Fei waved his hand.

He didn't know, just like this, what is not good, he has to rebel.

Of course, he may have forgotten that Nanhua has launched a cleanup plan to ask Ah to handle the management power of the tribe, which is unacceptable for the Ah.

It doesn't matter who becomes the rulers of this land, nothing more than paying taxes, but South China's approach infringes their fundamental interests -the right to high.

Coupled with the provocation and support of some people, the rebellion happened.

On the afternoon of the same day, the remaining defenders of the Kamakway surrendered under the deterrence of the shelling, and 80%of the buildings were preserved well. Han Fei can be said to have completed the task over.

The only thing that worried him was that there were more than 5,000 "captives" in his hand, and he didn't know how to deal with it.

The use of captives for infrastructure is not a command, but a request, not high in priority.

After all, the capture of captives is to act as a labor force. It cannot be turned upside down to let the soldiers get the soldiers in order to catch the captives.

"I want to say that, the commander of the army is supported by cutting the roots and removing the roots of the grass.

Han Fei issued a telegram to the Division, but the division did not respond and began to consider.

"If they kill them all, the later battles will be difficult to fight. And among these people, the people who do not dislike South China."

"We have to explore the situation around us and we can't hold so many captives." The chief of staff hoped to explore the northwest, maybe evidence of external forces intervention.

This is a hunch, but he couldn't say it. He went abroad tens of kilometers northwest, and then went to the sea.

This kind of thing is not something he can decide. However, he can take someone to go around secretly and do a simple investigation. If he finds it again, it is just a verbal lesson.

"The Eman Command Telegraph requires the captives back to Kuwait, and we will send a company to the captives to the south.

"In addition, the division of the division has a reward order, exceed the task, and the whole group has a collective three -class merit once. At the same time, we order us to prepare and welcome the army."

Han Fei shrugged, showing a helpless smile on the chief of staff.

"Division to regulate the order, transfer the chief of staff to the teacher, serve as the staff of the intelligence office, and immediately set off." Correspondent took a telegram.

Han Fei's smile stiffened on his face.

"Tune me? What about the staff of Yuan?" Chief of staff confused.

The correspondent looked at the chief of staff with a blank expression.
