Chapter 400: The Game of the Tyrannosaurus Rex

The attack of the was chosen at midnight, and at such a time their skin color was the best camouflage, under the cover of a sudden heavy rain, the five thousand Fulani warriors, all dressed in machetes, quietly touched into the British camp like five thousand cunning gorillas hunting in the jungle, and the powerful and armwise with grenades given to them by the Germans, like thousands of 60 mortars, first dropped more than 10,000 grenades on the head of the unsuspecting invaders.

Lugard and Lieutenant Colonel Edward, who had just slept were directly stunned, they hurriedly rushed out of their respective tents, and the barracks in front of them were already in a sea of fire, in the sea of fire in the heavy rain, in the dense explosion, countless British soldiers and mercenaries screamed and rushed out of the tent, and then were blown up by grenades, blood and scraps of flesh in the sky were sprinkled with rain, the whole scene was like hell, before the explosion ended, five thousand wielding machetes shouted like a tide and poured into the barracks, Then the wanton slaughter began.

"Fight back, fight back!" Lieutenant Colonel Edward, carrying a submachine gun, swept a shuttle at the influx of, and then grabbed the collar of a routed soldier and roared.

Just then, a grenade flew and landed at his feet in a stunned gaze, and before he could lie down, a ball of fire exploded between his feet.

The next moment, he flew up with Lugard next to him.

By the time Baron Lukey, the commissioner of Northern Nigeria and the future governor of Hong Kong in history, opened his eyes screaming, the entire barracks had become a slaughterhouse for, the heads of British soldiers were falling under their machetes, and even pillars of blood could be seen spurting out in the firelight, and a pair of dead eyes looking up at the sky in the muddy water on the ground.

Covering one eye that had been blinded by a steel ball, Lugard left Lieutenant Colonel Edward, who was about to die next to him with two legs blown off, and snatched a startled war horse. Without hesitation, he fled the barracks and fled for his life in the rain, but his fate did not change much, because after dawn, the, who were originally cavalry, immediately mounted their horses and began to hunt down, and the remnants of the British army and mercenaries left nearly 2,000 headless corpses between the Zaria and the Kaduna River crossing, including Lugard.

The British army's crushing defeat in Zaria quickly caused a sensation in the world, more than 400 lobster soldiers were decapitated, and the head of Lugard, the commissioner of Northern Nigeria, was even hung on the walls of Zarya, and the heads of all British soldiers were piled up outside the city for wild dogs to eat. The horrific photograph quickly circulated in all the newspapers around the world, and the British Empire suffered the harshest humiliation ever.

The whole world is amazed, what happened to the British Empire, which once ran rampant all over the world and could conquer an empire with thousands and hundreds of soldiers? If it is forgivable to be fattened by the Boers, but now it is too unbelievable to let the be beaten like this, do you really have to look up to the Italians? Although it is inevitable that the empire will decline one day, the speed of decline is exaggerated and a little sighing.

"Oh, this William is not easy to offend. Since it ruined his good deeds, the British naturally had to pay the price. Emperor Yang, who was inspecting his aerotropolis in Xi'an, gloated and said that although he also had a share in Nigeria's oil, he was still happy to see the British so unlucky.

So long has passed. His aluminum alloy has a preliminary industrial production capacity, and the production of supporting other metal materials has also been completely self-sufficient, which means that he can start the real construction of the air force. At present, engineers at the Yanliang base are designing China's first special-purpose fighter jet. Of course, the drawings are still provided by Yang Feng, but they are not too high-end goods, just ordinary Hawke. The mixed structure of metal and wood, the difficulty of manufacturing is low, and the performance fully meets the requirements, in Yang Feng's opinion, it is enough to train the first generation of fighter pilots, and it also has the ability to hang hundreds of kilograms of bombs.

Of course, if you really want to go to the battlefield, this can be said to be invincible, although since the last naval battle with the French, European countries have also begun to study the problem of aircraft combat, but their strange designs and Hawke fight, basically pure suicide, so far not even how to load machine guns has not been solved.

In addition to the fighter jet and his torpedo attack aircraft are also being designed, the drawings are the same low-end products, the British swordfish, the same metal and wood mixed structure, after all, even if it is industrialized at this time, his aluminum alloy is still expensive, since such a hybrid structure can fully meet the requirements, then there is no need to make it too sci-fi.

"The British have suffered such a big loss, I am afraid that they will have to go crazy to take revenge on those." Yuan Shikai also gloated.

"Revenge is certain, but even if they wash Zaria's blood in the future, they won't be able to get back this face, and they were actually wiped out by, what's wrong with the British Empire?" Emperor Yang let out a fake sigh, and then went on to stumble the British.

"Go and contact Hamid II, isn't he still a caliph? Although it is far away from the Fulani Empire, it is also a Muslim country, so he asked him to select a group of religious figures such as imams, and in the name of exchanging doctrines, they went over to encourage them, publicize the slogan of jihad, and by the way, brought a few People's Radio reporters to convey their voices in time. The guy said sinisterly.

After being bullied by the British for so long, Hamid II was naturally very happy to have this kind of angry work, anyway, he was a caliph, the co-master of the Muslim world, even if it was a Muslim country that couldn't fight with him, he sent a group of religious people in the past, no one would be qualified to make irresponsible remarks, and soon a delegation of dozens of clergy went to Nigeria by boat, of course, whether to exchange theology or encourage to continue fighting, this is hard to say.

The British who were slapped in the face naturally did not let go of those, and the main force of the British army that went north to attack Sokoto did not reach the place, so they immediately turned around and went down the Niger River, and then turned north to Kaduna River, preparing to let those bear the wrath of the British Empire, and at the same time the British government announced that it would send two more divisions to Nigeria, vowing to conquer that barbaric land and let the glory of civilization shine on Nigeria.

This time the British were really enraged, and it was okay to let the dog bite in South Africa, but now what is the matter with letting the toad take a bite? This Tama is not scary and disgusting, do you really think that the British Empire can be offended by cats and dogs? The British had already made up their minds that this time they had to raze the Zaria, especially since the emir of Zaria had to be sent to the gallows to dry.

And in Zaria, at this time, His Majesty the Sultan had already arrived in this ancient city, in fact, he did not know that the main force of the British army was originally going to raid his nest, after all, there was no decent intelligence system for a small monarch like him, and this time it was also a crooked attack, leading the troubles to Zaria, and preventing his own home from being razed by the British. Although he is the sultan of the empire, in fact, princes like the emir of Zaria are all hegemonic princes, and they usually don't listen to him at all, and the vast majority of his territory are such princes, this time if the British didn't press too hard, plus the Germans behind the scenes, these princes would not have been able to work together.

The victory in the first battle made these even more forgetful, and even shouted the slogan of expelling the British colonists, liberating the whole of Nigeria, and establishing a unified Nigerian empire, without knowing that they were just a small chess piece on the chessboard of those big crocodiles.

But since it is a chess piece, it also needs to be used well, although William did not expect them to really defeat the British, and then help him seize the oil fields of the Niger Delta, but it is also very happy to slap the British Empire in the face, so just when the British army is pressing on Zaria, a large number of German arms are also being sent to the in a steady stream through the German Cameroon colony, considering the way these guys fight, the vast majority of what William gave them were grenades, It's too difficult to get a to hit a target with a rifle, but it's much easier to switch to a grenade, especially a large grenade with a boosted charge.

The Sokoto were not the only ones who were being armed by William, but the Yoruba were also rebelling against British colonial rule in the oil-rich Niger Delta region in the south, and the weapons smuggled into their hands through Cameroon were making it difficult for the British to live day and night. In particular, the city of Benin, which had just been bloodied by the British five years ago, even had an uprising leader who claimed to be the royal family of Benin, with a group of haunting the surrounding jungle and attacking the British colonists. The whole of Nigeria is now at war, even the French Dahomey, who are better at causing trouble, next to the German colony of Togo, and it is too easy to send weapons to the who are already fond of rebelling against the French colonizers.

According to William's approach, it is estimated that as long as he is not beaten down, the British will not expect to develop the oil of the Niger Delta, anyway, this guy has the idea that he can't get it and can't let the British get it, especially the value of the oil here is hyped among the, so that they know the treasure contained in the land under their feet, and know what a huge fortune the British have snatched from them, compared to this thing, their slave trade is simply not worth mentioning.

Under the hard irrigation of the Germans, the clouds of dignity, hatred, greed have hung over the whole of North and South Nigeria. (To be continued......)
