Chapter 1224

After a five-kilometer run, the relationship between the soldiers immediately rose to a new level, and something called trust was growing.

The Cossacks in the imperial Russian era basically did not have the emotion of "trust". Trust basically did not exist between soldiers and soldiers.

Napoleon’s famous saying fixed the image of the Cossacks. In fact, the Cossacks were responsible for the Russian army in the era of imperial Russia. The Russian army in the era of imperial Russia was not only the Cossacks, but all the troops were the same. , coupled with chaotic command and poor logistics, not enough to eat, and weapons that can't even shoot a single shot, how powerful can it be?

After the reorganization of the umbrella, the Cossacks immediately showed amazing fighting power.

Compared with the era of imperial Russia, the logistical supply of the umbrella was a luxury. The officers and soldiers had meat for every meal, sometimes beef, sometimes chicken, and more anchovies that were abundant in the Sea of ​​Marmara.

These anchovies are not easy to preserve, the meat is not delicious enough, and the taste is not good, but for the Cossacks, well-cooked anchovy is still a rare delicacy. Compared with the Chinese chefs hired by the umbrella, they can only stew potatoes The Russian aunt is really unbearable.

In addition to meat, Umbrella also provides a wealth of poultry eggs and after-dinner fruits, and the coffee supply is unlimited, anytime, anywhere.

The most popular among Cossacks is vodka, so vodka has become the most popular prize. Whether it is training or games, as long as you take out vodka, even the thinnest Cossack will immediately turn into an erectus bear.

After the daily training work, the various instructors will also organize various sports activities to strengthen the team spirit of the soldiers. Tug-of-war and rugby are the most popular.

Tug-of-war is one of the activities that can best reflect teamwork. This sport not only requires good physical strength, but also requires close cooperation among members. The key is that tug-of-war does not require high venues. , which is very important for the current Cossacks.

In fact, the Cossacks prefer rugby. Compared with tug-of-war, rugby is a collision of strength and body. The humming and heavy impact sound when the body collides can form the most direct stimulation to the Cossacks watching the game. When a football game is held, spectators will be crowded around the stadium, and officers often organize squadron-level confrontations, and each game is like a major festival.

In fact, the injury rate caused by rugby is still relatively high. Therefore, the hospital was overcrowded in a short period of time. Alexander and Angie had to restrict the rugby game.

"Rugby is naturally suitable for brave Cossacks. This is a sport born of Cossacks. We should not restrict this. Even if they are injured during the game, they have no complaints." On this issue, Alexander and There are differences between Angie.

"Alexander, our purpose is not to train rugby stars, but to strengthen the sense of teamwork among soldiers, and sports are only auxiliary." Angie is influenced by Rock and doesn't like sports very much.

All the while, Southern Africa has been less keen on sports.

It’s not that sports are bad, but that almost all sports that focus on the body will inevitably become a physical confrontation in the end. Yellow people do not have an advantage in physical confrontation, and even whites do not have an advantage. The arena dominated by confrontation will become a show of a certain race.

In southern Africa, the role of sports is only to strengthen the body, and they are not keen on winning competitions. Southern Africa does not need sports to improve its international status, and sports actually do not help to improve its international status.

In another time and space in the 21st century, several African countries have almost monopolized all the running medals in the world, but almost no one remembers the names of those countries, and even running events have gradually become neglected.

The most popular event in southern Africa is the marathon, but the marathon in southern Africa only accepts registration from its own people, and people from other countries are not eligible to participate at all. The purpose of the city where the marathon is held is for the fitness of the whole people, not to make the marathon a city card .

To put it bluntly, it is wishful thinking to make a marathon a city name card. I have never heard of a city famous for its marathon.

"Yes, this month, four soldiers have broken their ribs because of rugby, two broke their arms, and one broke their legs. This is still under our strict requirements. If we let it go--" Alexander was also afraid , the Cossacks are indeed fanatical.

The Cossacks' fanaticism is not only for sports, but also for loyalty. The Cossacks of the imperial Russian era were not afraid of death when they fought for the tsar, and they went on and on.

In other words, for the sake of southern Africa, we will go on and on.

"Some soldiers hope to take their families out and send them to Cyprus or southern Africa. Is there any way?" The longing in Alexander's eyes can melt the ice.

"It's hard. Russia is at war now. If we send people to Russia, it may be regarded as a hostile act by the new Russian government." Angie is not optimistic. Russians have always been extremely cruel to their enemies. Let's see how they You know what happened to Nicholas II.

Nicholas II is still the Tsar's father of the Russians.

"Businessman, we can do it through merchants." Alexander had considerations. Although the new Russian government was in a state of war with the Allied Powers, business activities had not been completely terminated, as evidenced by the merchant ships that shuttled through the Bosporus Strait.

"What about the cost?" An Qi considered the issue more and more comprehensively. Enthusiasm alone is not enough to bring people out of Russia. Businessmen are driven by profit.

Alexander opened his mouth, but finally said nothing.

The umbrella will definitely not bear this money, and there is no clause in this regard in the promise of the umbrella.

The Cossacks were also unable to afford the expenses. The vast majority of Cossacks were poor. They could only receive meager salaries when they served in the imperial Russian army, and they were often deducted by the chief. Even if they died in battle, they could only receive meager pensions, or get nothing.

Alexander was also unable to afford this expense. In order to maintain the life of this army, Alexander had already dispersed all his family wealth, and now he is also impoverished.

"Wait a little longer, there might be a chance when the situation calms down." An Qi first reassured Alexander that the soldiers' needs in this regard were not urgent.

In troubled times, life is like nothing, and communication is underdeveloped. It is not easy to get in touch with family members, let alone get them out of Russia.

What's more, the Cossack's willingness to pick up depends on whether the Cossack's family is willing to leave Russia. The Cossack is not a gypsy who wanders around the world.

Let alone Russia itself, even the Bosporus Strait is not safe. One day in April, an army stationed on the east coast of the Bosporus Strait was attacked by unidentified armed forces. Two soldiers were killed and four Soldiers were wounded.

"We were on patrol at the time, and suddenly there was intense gunfire in the nearby woods. The captain was killed on the spot, and the deputy captain was seriously injured. We relied on the cover of armored vehicles and fought and retreated. Afterwards, the camp was attacked by mortars—— The injured sergeant Maxim was sent to Dingyuan Fort for treatment. His injuries were relatively minor, while the other three were more seriously injured.

"Who did it?" An Qi will definitely take revenge. Whether it is the Allied Forces or the remnants of the Ottomans, as long as they dare to attack the umbrella, they will bear the consequences.

"It's not clear yet, but most of them are troops led by Kemal." Xue Tai, the captain of the Sixth Wing stationed on the east bank of the Bosporus Strait, had a solemn expression. After accepting the reorganization of the umbrella company, the second mountain brigade started The garrison on the eastern shore of the Bosphorus was restored.

"Send Kemal a telegram, and I want to get a result. If Kemal refuses to admit it, then send troops to advance eastward and drive away all the troops near the Bosporus Strait." Angie was decisive, Bosporus The east coast of the Bosporus Strait was originally controlled by France, but France suffered heavy losses during the World War and could not complete its occupation of the east coast of the Bosporus Strait. Now the east coast of the Bosphorus Strait has become the control area of ​​the remnants of the Ottoman Empire .

The remnants of the Ottoman Empire who resisted the rule of the Allied Powers were not limited to Kemal. Kemal was relatively strong, with about 1 people under his command.

"In this case, we need more troops to complete the suppression of the Bosporus Strait." Xue Tai's strength is insufficient, and the sixth regiment has less than 3000 troops.

The basic organization of the mountain brigade consists of 12 people including the captain and vice-captain. There are 40 people in three sub-teams. The squadron has about 130 people, the detachment has 400 people, and the brigade has about 1300 people.

"It doesn't matter. At that time, I will send the second and fourth regiments to support you. 1 people are enough to clear the east coast of the Bosphorus." An Qi is not worried about the strength of the troops. If necessary, An Qi will More troops can be transferred from Mesopotamia to Constantinople.

But in that case, it will arouse the suspicion of the "Strait Management Committee", and it really feels bad to be restrained by others.

Angie's worry finally became a reality, and Kemal denied that it was related to Kemal's troops.

An Qi and Alexander did not hesitate, and issued an attack order on April NO.20.
