Chapter 554: The Tank Division Arrives in the Mediterranean
Cao Wenzhao received Gao Junshan's order and immediately formed a northward legion, and he served as the commander-in-chief of the legion.
The main division was the 1st Tank Division.
The First Tank Division is a new branch of the newly formed armed forces, and all the tanks transported from various tank factories across the country are assembled in Bei'ancheng, and the commander of the tank division is Gu Yingpeng.
Gu Yingpeng was transferred from the First Marine Division of the Navy, and he was originally the commander of the Marine Division.
The deputy commander of the 1st Tank Division was Mo Qiufeng, who was the commander of the 5th Marine Division, because he was a member of the Iron-Blooded Guard Regiment and was transferred to the Tank Division by the prince as the deputy division commander.
The commander of the first regiment is Gan Yong, who is also a member of the Iron and Blood Guardian Regiment; Zhao Tongchao, the commander of the second regiment, is the commander of the 101st Division, the 101st Division is the main division of Cao Wenzhao, he was transferred by Cao Wenzhao, although he is also the commander of the regiment, the commander of the lieutenant colonel in the 101st Division, and now the commander of the colonel; The commander of the third regiment is Jia Chongde, who is the sixth brother of Jia Chongguang, the owner of the North American Zhengmao Fishery Company, and has always served in the army.
The ten cavalry divisions that had come to Oil City to stand by before were also concentrated in Bei'an City. The ten cavalry divisions were:
1st Mongolian Cavalry Division;
3rd Mongolian Cavalry Division;
Mongolian 6th Cavalry Division;
1st Kazakh Cavalry Division;
2nd Kazakh Cavalry Division;
1st Cossack Cavalry Division;
1st Cavalry Division of Kalmykia;
1st Kyrgyz Cavalry Division;
Cyrus Cavalry Division of the Persian State;
Cavalry Division of Megapanos of the Persian State.
A regiment of the 101st Division also drove to Bei'an, and this regiment followed the tank division on nearly 100 military trucks.
The whole army marched north in the rumbling of tanks, as if no one was in a land along the way, maybe the Ottomans received a note from Huaxia and evacuated the army, maybe there were no Ottoman troops along the way, anyway, the Huaxia army did not encounter any resistance.
In the face of this huge army, even if there is resistance, it will be crushed by the rumbling tanks.
Every time the rumbling tanks passed through a city or village, there was not a single figure, and people were frightened to hide in all directions when they saw these monster-like chariots.
The purpose of the Huaxia army's occupation is only to get this place, it doesn't matter if there is anyone or not, this army of nearly fifteen people does not need to provide food locally, Huaxia's food is very sufficient, and the follow-up transport team of the legion constantly follows behind the legion to provide various supplies for the legion.
The legion made a smooth northward march and advanced to the northernmost point of Port Said in only twenty days.
On the first day of the occupation of Port Said, the legion renamed it Hankow Port.
The Port of Hankou is a port of China on the eastern side of the Mediterranean, with Jerusalem to the east and Alexandria to the west.
The capture of the port of Hankou would also herald the participation of the Chinese navy in the management of the Mediterranean.
The Mediterranean Sea is bounded by the Strait of Tunis between the Apennine Peninsula, Sicily and Tunisia, and is divided into two parts, the Mediterranean Sea is the oldest sea in the world, older than the Atlantic Ocean. The Mediterranean coast is also one of the cradles of ancient civilizations. It is home to the splendid culture of ancient Egypt, the ancient Babylonian kingdom and the Persian empire, and the birthplace of European civilization (the Aegean civilization, the ancient Greek civilization, and the ancient Roman Empire that spanned Asia, Europe, and Africa in the century AD).
Now the Mediterranean Sea is about to witness the splendid civilization of the Chinese country.
Cao Wenzhao took his jeep and came to the port of Hankou, where he stood on the wharf, blowing the hot wind of the Mediterranean, looking at the blue sea in the distance, and announced loudly:
"The Mediterranean, the sons and daughters of China are here!"
War correspondents lost no time in recording this great moment, and added Cao Wenzhao's words, "The Mediterranean, the sons and daughters of China are here!" It was published in the "Huaxia Daily".

At this time, Gao Junshan had gone from Ansai to Yulin, he originally wanted to see the place where he landed in Ansai, because Pan Zide successfully introduced the water of Lake Berga to the land of North China, and now Shaanxi is a scenery that only exists in the south of the Yangtze River, and the place where he landed has now become a paddy field, and he can't find the place where he was back then.
After leaving Ansai, Zhongjeep continued north to Yulin, the northernmost part of Shaanxi, beyond which Yulin was the boundary of Mongolian Province.
Now Yulin also has a railway station, Gao Junshan's luxury train is already waiting at Yulin Railway Station, and his six wives are also on the luxury train.
Gao Junshan boarded his special train, and he sat on a comfortable sofa reading the newspaper he was reading on the day Cao Wenzhao was published in the Mediterranean.
The luxury train slowly departed Yulin Station, and the destination of the special train was Ulaanbaatar. Bai Lisha, Liu Hongru and Tian Wenju were sitting beside Gao Junshan, and Gao Junshan handed the newspaper to the three of them.
Gao Junshan joked: "This Cao Wenzhao has robbed me of my prestige!" β
Bailisha said: "The place name of Hankou has been obtained, which means that our Han people are at the mouth of the Mediterranean Sea. β
Liu Hongru said: "It's just a pity that there are no our warships in the Mediterranean. β
Gao Junshan said: "It will be soon." But it will be next year, when our new warships are launched, and they will be able to enter the Mediterranean. β
Tian Wenju said: "In this way, the Mediterranean Sea also has a place for our China, and our navy has something to do." β
Gao Junshan said: "We don't necessarily rely on force to rule this region, we have extended our tentacles to the Mediterranean, we must make full use of the advantages of our China, continue to trade with Mediterranean countries, and include them in our trade circle, there are those who do not obey our trade rules, we will not be too late to use artillery fire to deal with them." β
"This is a clever move," Liu Hongru patted his ass, "this is called saluting first and then soldiering." β
Bailisha disagreed with Liu Hongru's statement: "How can this be said to be a salute before a soldier? This is the trade opening, and the cannons are behind. β
Tian Wenju smiled: "Mao Cheng, don't you say it so explicitly, okay?" According to the emperor's words, this is a trade war. β
Gao Junshan said: "Now that we have the right to speak in the Mediterranean, our next step is to plan to dig the Suez Canal, only when the Suez Canal is opened, we are the real masters of the Mediterranean." I commandβ"
Gao Junshan began to give orders again, and Tian Wenju immediately took notes and prepared to send them to the newspaper office.
"I ordered Cao Wenzhao's army to take Cairo and Alexandria immediately, and not to give the Ottomans a chance to breathe."
Tian Wenju said: "Your Majesty, are you strange or not? One of our armies reached Hankow, and there was not a single Ottoman army to stop our advance? β
Gao Junshan laughed and said, "I have received a secret telegram from Damascus from the General Affairs Bureau, Koplili has died of illness, and their country is in chaos, we must take this opportunity to seize some more territory." β
