In order to win the parliamentary elections, the Young Turks issued their platform, proposing the introduction of labor legislation, the allocation of land, and the abolition of tithes. Four months later, a new parliament was convened, with the leader of the Young Turks party, Riza, as speaker. After coming to power, the Young Turks retained the throne of Hamid II but refused to carry out the promise of a redistribution of the land, and as a result, democratic movements of the workers and peasants broke out in various parts of Turkey.

At this time, Kemal, Ozturk and Oli were enjoying the warm Aegean sun and gentle sea breeze with their soldiers. At present, a small part of the Turkish army is in the hands of the Young Turks, most of which is being handed over to the government, and some of the old army is in the hands of the king and nobles, and there is no unified command at all, so for four months Kemal's troops have not received any orders except for the integration of Ozturk's troops. Kemal, Ozturk and Oli, a revolutionary, an old army officer and a German officer, despite their different backgrounds and experiences, quickly became good friends with the same excellent military qualities and unruliness. Cassandra's garrison now consisted of 2,500 men brought by Kemal, 1,200 men from the Oli regiment, and 500 men from Ozturk, as well as the remaining ships under Ozturk's command. It is idle to be forgotten, but there is also a pitiful amount of provisions. Fortunately, Ozturk had long been accustomed to such days, and had cultivated a farm with his soldiers a few years earlier, and was basically able to support himself. In addition, there is a small port here, and Chentian also keeps shipping some supplies from Germany. After a long period of training, the coordinated operations between these three units have also been greatly improved.

The soldiers built a medium-sized airfield north of the Cassandra Fortress, and the planes were still the same five Sky III, but the pilots had been replaced, the "Landing Angel" Fritz and the previous pilots who had been trained in combat had been transferred back to Germany, and they would help the aircraft engineers design more combat-friendly aircraft, and the graduates of the military academy in the Orly Regiment had also returned home, and they would bring a lot of valuable combat experience to the German army, which had not experienced war for decades.

Far away in Germany, Chentian did not have that leisure, at the secret test site in Königsberg, he was getting out of the turret of the first tank prototype "Stone", and his body was almost torn apart by the jolt, and his face was full of happy smiles. "Stone" is riveted from homogeneous armor plates, with a total combat weight of 9 tons, a length of 6 meters, a width of 2 meters, a height of 2.4 meters, a maximum road speed of 15 km / h, a maximum range of 80 km, and an armament of a 37mm caliber gun with an armor thickness of 10-30mm. Because the Maxim heavy machine guns were too bulky and the Madsen light machine guns were too slow, the engineers did not choose them as "stone" machine guns, but installed another machine gun designed by the weapons research laboratory in cooperation with the arms dealers, the "Firebird", a light machine gun that uses rifle bullets and chain feeds and has a rate of fire of 400 rounds per minute. Although this machine gun is a water-cooled machine gun designed for the "stone", but at the request of Chentian, the "Firebird" has also been improved into an air-cooled light machine gun for infantry, and this infantry weapon has performed well in the test, the only drawback is that the barrel temperature is too high after a long period of high-speed shooting. Based on his impressions of the MG-42, Chentian asked the designers to make technical improvements to the infantry with the "Firebird" machine gun and use a replaceable barrel. Later, Chen Tian went to Turkey with the 10 infantry "Spitfire" that had been trial-produced, hoping to let the Oli regiment test the "Firebird" in actual combat.

At Cassandra's airport, a large plane with two wings and two engines slowly stopped.

"Ollie! How is it going? Chen Tian led Lisa out of the cabin and waved at Ollie and the others from a distance.

"Gigi, it's a pleasure to meet you! You've brought your lady here, too! ”

"Yes! We are here for a holiday and none of us have sunbathed on the beach on the Aegean coast! Chen Tian then shook hands with Kemal and the others one by one.

"Your Royal Highness, Madame Prince, welcome to you!" Kemal glanced at their plane several times as he spoke, "Your Royal Highness, can this plane really fly directly from Germany here?" ”

Chen Tian looked back at the latest "Dayan II" aircraft in production, it has a closed cockpit and a range of more than 1,000 kilometers, but it is still not enough to fly directly from Germany, they set off from Königsberg, stop in Vienna and refuel, and then arrive here after more than two hours.

"General Kemal, this plane has a long range, but we still need to refuel halfway to get here!" Nevertheless, the huge fuselage of the "Wild Goose II" was the envy of Kemal.

After greeting everyone, Chen Tian asked the soldiers to carry the things off the plane.

"Here, let's show you something good!" Chen Tian took out a "firebird" and shook it in front of everyone, "How is it?" Looks good, right? Let's find a place to give it a try! ”

When Chentian, with the help of a soldier, lay on the ground and used the "Firebird" to shoot out 150 rounds full of 150 bullets in half a minute, everyone looked at the sieve-like target in the distance, and their mouths were wide open.

"Ollie, give me an egg!" Chen Tian got up, patted the dust off his body, and stretched out his hand in front of Ollie.

Ollie looked at Tatsuten in surprise as he pulled an egg out of his pocket.

"I knew you were going to have eggs with you!" Chen Tian took the egg and smashed it on the barrel of the "Firebird".

Zizi ......

The eggs quickly cooked, then turned charred and black, and everyone closed their mouths at the same time.

"Now this weapon is still a little flawed! But Ollie, I still want to let your troops try out this machine gun! ”

"Gigi, there's no need for this weapon here for the time being!" Ollie looked at the Firebird and shook his head vigorously.

"Yes, Your Royal Highness, although there is a riot now, the other side is some ordinary people, and you can scare them away with a rifle!" Kemal explained, but his eyes kept on the small but powerful "Firebird".

Chen Tian looked at everyone's eyes and picked up the machine gun, "The cost is 5,000 marks, do you want to buy two and go home to play?"

Kemal and Ozturk's eyes instantly shifted to other places, and Chen Tian and Ollie smiled at each other.

A week later, while Chentian and Lisa were enjoying the sun on the beach in Cassandra, news came from Thessaloniki that the workers, peasants and part of the army had staged a massive riot in the city because of their strong dissatisfaction with the policy of national autonomy promulgated by the ruling Young Turks, and that the insurgents were now about to occupy most of the city, but the government forces immediately surrounded the city and demanded that Kemal lead troops to attack the city from the port.

"Your Royal Highness, what should we do now?" In the conference room, everyone looked at Chentian.

"Uh...... I'm here for a vacation, and it's up to you, General Kemal, the Supreme Commander here, to decide! I'll just sit in on it! Tatsu **** Kemal nodded.

"Based on the ships available, we can only transport 800 soldiers at a time, so I think our task is to capture the port and docks of Thessaloniki and hold there!" Kemal looked at everyone and continued: "This time I am going to transfer my two battalions there, and General Ozturk will be in charge of the ships for this operation!" ”

The crowd did not speak.

"So, Your Royal Highness, and Lieutenant Colonel Ollie, do you want to take part in this operation?"

"Why not? Lisa and I have wanted to visit Thessaloniki for a long time! ”

"Your Royal Highness, but it doesn't seem safe there, if those rebels bombard us with artillery......" Ozturk still reels from the last time he was shelled by Orly.

Tatsuten didn't speak, just waiting for Kemal's opinion.

"I think this operation is not the same as the last time we attacked Thessaloniki, this time it was just a riot of ordinary people and part of the army, and it is not certain whether there will be a large-scale battle!" Kemal thought about it for a long time, and he felt that there was a good chance that this matter would be resolved peacefully.

In the evening of the same day, Kemal's two battalions boarded four transport ships, while Chentian, Lisa, Kemal, Oli, and Ozturk boarded the only destroyer, and they sailed for Thessaloniki under the escort of two shore gunboats.

At dawn the next day, they arrived at the port of Thessaloniki.

"Wow...... So beautiful! Lisa stood on the deck and watched the sun slowly rise over the sea, bathing the whole harbor in a soft morning light, and everything seemed so beautiful!

"I've seen sunrises all over the world, and it's so beautiful!" Chen Tian recalls seeing the sunrise from different places when he sailed around the world, and for this world, every time the sun rises, it represents a new hope.

Syllable......

The sound of gunfire in the distance pierced the silence and pulled Chentian back from his memory.

"Look at the docks!" The sailors on the watchtower suddenly shouted.

Chen Tian pulled Lisa and hurried back to the command room.

"Your Highness, there is a fierce exchange of fire on the docks! We are trying to figure out what is going on there, and the soldiers are ready to go ashore! ”

"General, here you are the commander, you don't need to report anything to me!" Chen Tian took the telescope handed by Kemal, and the dock was full of chaotic crowds, and the gunfire became more and more intense. As they got closer and closer to the pier, they found that it was a one-sided situation, and the soldiers of the government army were shooting at the crowd in an organized manner.

"Kemal, what's going on? Those people are unarmed civilians, why are the troops still shooting at them! ”

Kemal didn't answer, but rushed outside the command room and shouted: "The soldiers are ready to land to maintain order, and they are not allowed to shoot without my orders!" ”

"Ollie, have our soldiers prepare the 'Firebirds' on the side of the ship!" Chen Tian brought a platoon of the Oli regiment and 5 "Firebirds" this time.

"Yes! But we're not going to shoot at the crowd! Ollie looked at Tatsu Tian with some confusion.

"Of course not! Don't you see that there are women and children in the crowd? Tell the soldiers to prepare to separate the Turkish soldiers from the civilian population with machine-gun fire and try to shoot into the open space between them! Looking at Lisa, who was clasping his arm, Tatsuten decided to do his best to stop the massacre, but he didn't have much confidence in whether this would stop the Turks.

Kemal's four transport ships quickly docked, and his soldiers rushed to the dock, but unfortunately there were too few of them to completely separate the government forces from the crowd, and the situation looked even more chaotic. However, as a result of their arrival, government forces have stopped shooting at the crowd, although soldiers are still attacking the crowd with bayonets and rifle butts.

Click......

The machine guns on Chentian's side fired, and the dense bullets jumped in front of the Turkish government troops, and the soldiers were all stunned in place.

After waiting for tens of seconds, the machine gun fire finally stopped, and there was a strange scene on the dock, where the Turkish soldiers and civilians stood in place, staring blankly at Chentian's side. The concentrated fire of 5 machine guns calmed everyone down.

Kemal also breathed a sigh of relief, standing on the bridge and shouting: "I am Turkish Brigadier General Kemal!" I order everyone to stop! No one is allowed to attack the other again! ”

The rebels and government soldiers occupied the two sides of the pier, separated by Kemal's troops. Kemal went to the side of the government forces and communicated with their commanders.

"Whew...... Finally stopped! Chen Tianchang sighed, the last thing he wanted to see was the people being slaughtered.

By the time Kemal walked back, the government forces had already begun to retreat, and the crowd had gradually dispersed. While the citizens of the area began with demonstrations, the government sent troops to block the streets, and then opened fire on the crowds, which turned into a riot, with some soldiers involved in the dissatisfaction with the unpaid salaries and the government forces being driven out of the city the day before. By the night, the soldiers had already gone out of the city under the leadership of the officers and surrendered, but in the morning when the government soldiers entered the city they were confronted by the citizens who were preparing to demonstrate again, the citizens thought that the army had come to arrest them, and the unsuspecting soldiers thought that they had driven themselves out of the city the day before, and then there was a fierce clashes, and when they came to the port, the citizens had been forced back to the dock by the army.

"General Kemal, I didn't expect your country to be so turbulent, it seems that a complete revolution is needed!" Looking at Kemal, who was in a heavy mood, Chen Tianyun said profoundly.

"A complete revolution?" Kemal raised his head for a long time before nodding firmly.

Two months later, the reactionary-controlled "Mohammed Union" and the "Freedom Alliance" of the commercial comprador class staged a successful coup d'état, and the Young Turks began to rebuild their army, and the Turkish civil war broke out again. With the support of Chen Tiandi, Kemal also began to independently enter the Turkish political arena.
