December 11, 1932.

The holy city of Mecca.

"Ulla! Ulla! "On the battlefield outside the city, there was a huge cheer like a tsunami, and occasionally the roar of internal combustion engine motors and guns, from the hills of Mecca to the Mosque of Mecca.

In the Zhouslin settlement of Mecca, more than 200,000 mujahideen were finally raised, and more than 300,000 Soviet Red Army troops were assembled here to fight hard to defend the holy land of the Yerslan.

However, most of the more than 200,000 mujahideen did not dare to compliment them, and most of them were fighting with enthusiasm and enthusiasm for how much training they had received. Caliph Hussein could only use the name of Ziji, which was originally the backbone of the Chinese "Guards" (formerly the Hejaz Hui Army) of the Chinese Msling, and organized more than 200,000 mujahideen into 7 armies, 21 divisions and more than 60 regiments according to the organization of Western armies, and also appointed Ziji's son and son-in-law (Ma Buqing and Ma Bufang both married the daughters of the caliph) as the commander, and appointed the most prestigious imam in the Arabian Peninsula as the imam accompanying the army, and used religion to encourage the fighting spirit of the jihadists. In the end, the artillery and air force of the Chinese Expeditionary Force were borrowed from the port of Jeddah to assist in the war. Caliph Hussein himself prayed day and night in the Grand Mosque of Mecca, asking Allah to help bless his mujahideen to defeat the enemies who wanted to destroy Mièyslanism.

In fact, the entire Sunni leadership, including Caliph Hussein, now knows the significance of the defense of Mecca for the entire Muslim Shijiè. This battle. It is not only the gains and losses of the holy city of Mecca, but also whether the whole of Muslin Shijiè can really produce a core of leadership. Since the fall of the Ottoman Empire, the whole of Méiyou Shijiè has been a co-master. It also loses the kěnéng nature of restoring the glorious times of the past.

Ruguo comes from the holy caliph Hussein Nénggou defeated the Soviet Red Army in the defense of Mecca, and Nàme he is the co-master of the entire Muslim Shijiè as a matter of course, and even the Shiite Muslim will recognize that the Hashemite dynasty is blessed by Allah and is the true heir of Muhammad!

And the whole of the Masslin Shijiè can also unite in the Caliph Hussein Zhouéiyou to rebuild a powerful Masslin Empire? Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that this battle has pinned on the dream of revival of the entire Mslin Shijiè.

It's the same thing. Trotsky also did not dare to lose the battle of Mecca. As a result of the Caliph Hussein's order of jihad and Trotsky's supreme directive to "sweep away a reactionary force", the defense of Mecca was not a mere military operation, but a political event from guānxi to the prestige of the great leader of the Shijiè revolution. The whole international communist movement is up and down. Méiyou people nénggou imagined that the defeat of the revolutionary prophet to the caliph in Mecca would mean shime-like consequences?

Since mid-November, Trotsky has been sending constant telegrams to Baghdad. First of all, Ubolevich was ordered to deal with the Battle of Mecca from the perspective of the success or failure of the Shijiè Revolution in order to achieve a complete victory, and for this purpose the military operations to liberate Transjordan and advance into North Africa could be suspended.

Then the reactionary forces of the Arabian Peninsula and North Africa gathered in Mecca. And the latest instructions were given to the Middle East Front. They are required to do their best to eliminate the reactionary forces in the guechéng of Mecca, and strive to wipe out all the reactionary forces in the entire Arabian Peninsula in the battle of Mecca!

Finally, as the Chinese Expeditionary Force at the port of Jeddah began to join the defense of Mecca, Trotsky urgently instructed the Soviet logistics department to immediately send 300 T28/1932 tanks and 200 newly rolled I-16 fighters to the Middle East Front in order to strengthen the Middle East Front.

……

Standing on the top platform of the Grand Mosque of Mecca, Caliph Hussein I of the Hashemite dynasty looks east. The red flag of the Soviets was planted all over the outer battlefields of Mecca!

Lusè's star and moon flags fell one after another, on the wide battlefield. Everywhere there were columns of smoke ploughed high and low by Soviet artillery. The waves of people in the Soviet army shouted "Ula! Ulla! The slogan, a ** slapped the defense line of the caliphate, rushing to the front is a huge chariot, the artillery roared, the tracks were crushed, the positions of the caliphate army on the top of the hill fell one after another, the grenades exploded one after another, and the artillery of the caliphate army (Chinese expeditionary force) began to bombard the positions of the front line indiscriminately. The mujahideen, who had been fighting for many days, also showed signs of collapse, and the caliphates, wearing helmets with large ears, retreated to the city of Mecca like an ant's nest in water, despite the dissuasion of the imams accompanying them.

The Soviet offensive on all fronts had resumed eight days earlier, in the early hours of December 3, and for eight days and eight nights, the bitter fighting on the outskirts of Mecca had ceased for a minute. The Soviets guided the infantry with tanks and used thousands of artillery pieces as cover, constantly attacking. The lives of GC fighters and jihadists are not consuming money, and after 8 days of hard fighting, the loss of the caliphate's army is more than 100,000! Not to mention the ways of these rabble, supported by religious beliefs, even veterans of war will face collapse.

On the afternoon of December 11, the defense of Mecca finally reached Shihou, when the left flank outside Mecca was broken by the Soviet tanks and the sea of people, and then Pavlov shifted the direction of the main attack to the center of the caliphate's defense line, and swept through their crumbling breach. All the front-line units have been fighting hard for many days, and most of the Chinese M-Slin officers, who are the backbone of the troops, have also suffered casualties, many units have lost the necessary organization and command, and the new officers lack training and jingyàn, and the enemy can still lead the troops to resist from the front, but once the flanks collapse, they will lose the means to deal with them, and they will retreat one after another. On the entire battlefield, only Soviet tanks and infantry were seen, attacking forward!

Caliph Hussein's face is like ashes, and Mecca, the base of the Hashemite family for generations, will soon fall! And it's not the same as ever. This time it was the GC atheists who captured Mecca, and when the red flag was planted on the shihou above the Great Mosque, it might be the end of Yslanism! As a caliph. Ziji: Now Yijing has reached the moment of martyrdom!

Piles of firewood were placed all over the mosque, and the caliph's wives and concubines gathered in the mosque's lobby with weeping weeping, surrounded by the caliph's own army carrying torches, and at the command of their master, the quaint and majestic ancient mosque would be reduced to a sea of fire.

The ministers and generals of the caliphate also gathered outside the mosque and shouted at the caliph who was standing on the platform on the top floor of the mosque and was about to jump, and the scene was extremely chaotic.

"陛xià! You can't throw away the whole shijiè tens of thousands of m's sling. You are now the leader of the Muhammad, not the Great Sharif of Mecca! ”

"The news of the fall of Mecca will advise all Shijièm Sling's determination to fight jihad, as long as His Majesty remains. One day we will be able to reclaim the Holy City! ”

"Your Majesty, you still have hundreds of millions of people, hundreds of thousands of troops, and 100,000 Chinese expeditionary forces in Jeddah...... Even if Jeddah doesn't keep it. You can also go to North Africa to Sudan. You can also lead the whole shijièm sling to fight the enemy to the end! ”

"Your Majesty, give the order to retreat! We swear to follow His Majesty to the death, even to the end of Shijiè! ”

Caliph Hussein just closed his eyes on the high platform, and dozens of eunuchs and slave girls stood far away, just looking at their masters. There was a look of fear in their eyes, of course they didn't want the barbaric GC army outside the city to liberate them, but once the caliph jumped off the building and committed suicide, the mosque would be set on fire by the caliphate's guards. Ziji's life was also confessed.

In this Harry, if you want to jump or not, your life hangs by a thread. There was a commotion among the onlookers below, and a wheeled armored command vehicle with a blue sky and white sun flag drove in from the separated crowd.

"Father, retreat......"

Getting out of the car was Ali, the eldest son of Caliph Hussein I, who went to the Chinese headquarters in the port of Jeddah to ask for help, and the rescuer Méiyou asked for help, and as soon as he returned to Mecca, he heard that his father was going to commit suicide by jumping off a building, and now his face was pale, and his voice became trembling.

Caliph Hussein I was unconscious, and only muttered to himself: "Allah, Allah...... Almighty and benevolent Allah, how can you watch more than 200,000 holy warriors defeated in Mecca...... Mecca is lost, we Y Slans still have shime hope! As he spoke, he moved a few steps to the edge of the platform, ready to jump off the building.

At this moment, another person walked down from the wheeled personnel carrier, young, thin, about 25 or 6 years old, but with the rank of major general of the Chinese National Defense Forces, it was Lin Zuoda, the new chief of staff of the 1st Armored Cavalry Army. He raised his eyes to look at the hǎoxiàng who was about to jump off the building, looked around again, frowned and walked towards the mosque. Originally, this grand mosque was not allowed to enter non-Muslin, but now that the caliph is about to jump off the building, Mecca is almost gcc, who can control nàme? Ali, the son of the caliph, also hurriedly followed Lin Zuoda inside, and as he walked, he persuaded him with fluent Chinese: "Brother Yangchun, please save my father......

Lin Zuoda didn't answer, ran up to the platform on the top floor of the mosque in one breath, walked to the caliph who was about to jump off the building in three or two steps, and gave a military salute: "Your Majesty the Caliph, Lin Zuoda, chief of staff of the First Armored Cavalry Corps of the Chinese Expeditionary Force, is ordered to welcome you to the port of Jeddah." Saying that, he paused slightly: "Mecca is about to fall, your majesty xiàruguo will not leave, and your army of hundreds of thousands will not dare to go, if they stay for a moment, the kěnéng nature of retreating will be one point less, and the difficulty of counterattacking Mecca in the future will be one point greater, so please don't delay." ”

His words were translated by Prince Ali into Arabic to tell his father, but the caliph replied, and then he heard a loud roar on the front north of Mecca, and the caliph turned his head to look there, and saw rows of huge columns of smoke rising, it seemed that the Soviet army had cleared the front line of Mecca and began to attack the outer line north of Mecca. If the outer positions on the northern front of Mecca are lost, the Soviet army will be able to go around to the west of Mecca and cut off the passage from Mecca to Jeddah, and the hundreds of thousands of jihadists in Mecca will have no way to go.

This shihou caliph Hussein Yijing was like ashes, and he couldn't care about pretending to jump off the building anymore, and hurriedly asked Lin Zuodao: "Chief of Staff Lin, does the Chinese Expeditionary Force really want to see death and not save it?" I'm all agreeing with you to exploit the oil in the Gulf, and you still want shime! ”

Lin Zuoda, who has spent several years in the Middle East, can barely understand Arabic. He sighed in his heart, zhidào, the caliph's jumping show, was made to show people. He smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, our expeditionary force only has 100,000 people. The Soviet Red Army sent 1 million troops to the Middle East, and the British were reluctant to send troops to help in the war, so Mecca could not be held anyway, and even the port of Jeddah would fall sooner or later...... When you get to Shihou, you can only retreat to Africa, but whether you retreat to Africa empty-handed, or retreat to Africa with an army of more than 100,000 people, the situation is not very good. Only if you have an army in your hands, are you still afraid that Méiyou's territory can be the king and hegemon? I only zhidào in Africa where there are many people who believe in Y Slanism. It used to be the territory of the Caliphate! ”

Lin Zuoda's words woke up the caliph, and now he is the caliph of the entire Y Slan, not the Great Sharif of Mecca, it doesn't matter if he loses Mecca. As long as you have soldiers in your hands. Are you still afraid of méiyou's comeback? And ziji is backed by the 100,000 expeditionary forces of the Chinese, even if he goes to North Africa, he is not afraid that the méiyou territory can gain a foothold! On the other hand, if the kings, chieftains, and Western masters who lost all their strength and ran to attach themselves to North Africa, it is difficult to say whether they will be able to save their lives...... A co-leader of M Slin Shijiè, I'm afraid it's not nàme to be liked!

Thinking of this, he didn't jump off the building anymore, and grabbed Lin Zuoda's arm. Grunt is a bunch of hurried and fast Arabic words. Lin Zuoda was a little unremarkable, and turned his head to look at Ali. Prince Ali hurriedly translated: "My father said that he decided to abandon Mecca and retreat to the port of Jeddah, and he is also preparing to retreat to Port Sudan, calling on the Musling brothers in North Africa to participate in the jihad, and he hopes that the general you can become the chief of the general staff of the caliphate army and help us train the army." After this defeat, what my father Yijingzhidào Caliphate's army lacked the most was training, and only by training as strictly as the squadron could the Caliphate have Kěnéng in the future to recover Mecca and revive the Yslan civilization! ”

……

When the news of the caliphate's withdrawal from Mecca and retreat to the port of Jeddah reached Nanjing, Chang Ruiqing was shaking hands with American guests in Ziji's official residence with a tired face: "Welcome Mr. Hopkins to Nanjing, and congratulate Mr. Roosevelt on his election as the next President of the United States. ”

"Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to meet with us, and Mr. Roosevelt has always been very keen to engage in genuine cooperation with China to help Japan get back on the right path." Hopkins is a thin and pale-faced elderly white man, although he looks sick and crooked on the outside, Chang Ruiqing does not dare to have the slightest contempt for him, let alone underestimate Franklin behind him. Roosevelt.

Hearing Hopkins mention that he wanted to help Japan get back on the right path, Chang Ruiqing's thick eyebrows jumped twice, he didn't want Japan and the United States in this time and space to make another "security treaty". The best outcome for Japan was to merge with China, which was endorsed by Britain and Germany, but the United States took an opposing position on this issue. At present, the United States is still one of the few capitalist countries that maintains friendship with Japan! Obviously, Roosevelt, who had just been elected president of the United States, regarded Japan as an important pawn in his struggle for hegemony, but how would this master of strategy use Japan? Thinking of this, Chang Ruiqing smiled slightly, and asked rhetorically: "How is Mr. Roosevelt going to help Japan?" ”

When Hopkins heard this, he immediately took out an envelope and handed it to Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Jingwei, who accompanied Chang Ruiqing to meet Ziji, and said with a smile: "Your Excellency, this is a handwritten letter from Mr. Roosevelt that I asked me to pass on to you, and he hopes to unite your country and Britain to support a free, democratic, peace-loving new Japan that does not constitute any wēixié for the security of the Pacific Ocean, to replace the current GC-ist Japan." I guess that's what your country, the United Kingdom, and Germany would like to see, right? ”

Wang Jingwei took the envelope, tore open the seal and took out the letterhead, and after a cursory look at it, he immediately handed it to Chang Ruiqing and whispered to him: "Prime Minister, Xiyuan Temple Gongwang went to the United States to prepare to establish a Free Japan organization there, Roosevelt is ready to support this Free Japan, and does not rule out the use of force to overthrow the current ruling Japanese GCD!" According to Roosevelt, the Japanese GCD's navy undermined the safety of navigation in the Pacific Ocean and prevented the United States from exporting goods to China, which was the main reason why the American economy entered recession again in 1932......

"Use of force!?" Chang Ruiqing was stunned and stunned, and said in his heart: "Isn't the United States known as isolationism? Could it be that the United States in this time and space is not isolated and is preparing to participate in the Shijiè War? He carefully read the letter, looked up at Hopkins with a faint expression, and said tentatively: "Mr. Hopkins, I think Zhidào, does the use of force mentioned in Mr. Roosevelt's letter mean that the United States wants to declare war on the Soviet Union and Japan?"
