The roar of the armed train swallowed up the sporadic gunshots, the burning black smoke ate away at the light, and the rolling wheels dragged the Germans into the endless abyss.

Suddenly, the train stopped, and the carriages were opened, leaking out of the station signboard: "Welcome to Trabzon".

It was supposed to be shown to civilians, but now only military personnel can see it.

A steady stream of German soldiers poured down the train and walked out of the station in an orderly manner.

However, looking at their clothes, I feel that they are not looking at the German army in World War I, but the German army in World War II, and the weapons they take are not suitable for World War I.

It is worth mentioning that if Kuster saw these weapons, he would be amazed at how the things he made ended up in Germany.

In addition, according to reliable grapevine, it seems that Kuster was sent to the battlefield with Germany, but with the intervention of the Austro-Hungarian government.

As soon as the Germans swaggered out of the station, they heard fierce gunfire from a few hundred meters away.

The first German division commander to arrive reacted very quickly, and rushed out to lead his troops into battle without telling the other three division commanders.

Only 30 minutes later, the second German division arrived, and the division commander who had just gotten off the car heard that there was a battle to be fought, confidently straightened out his new clothes, sent a congratulatory message to the remaining two division commanders, and then hurriedly took his men down to business.

But when he arrived, he found that the friendly forces had already begun to clean up the battlefield, the damned Russians were dead, the spoils were divided, and I was doing all the bells and whistles, and in the end the clown was myself.

This made him very annoyed, and he wanted to reason with the commander of the friendly division, but he was very friendly, and let him see how he annihilated this Russian division.

It turned out that this was the pioneer who had previously taken the lead in launching the "Great Depth Operation", and they climbed a full 150 kilometers of mountains. But in reality, because they couldn't grasp the direction, a considerable part of them were going in circles, and in the end the effective march was only 25 kilometers.

When the officers and soldiers realized that they had only climbed 25 kilometers to crawl around, they could not hold back.

Many Russian troops who were injured due to the rough terrain and forced marches demanded wages on the spot and demanded compensation from the division commander.

The commander of the Russian division took a look: Yo, a good boy dares to ask me for money, my ancestors have been poor for eight lifetimes, and it is not easy to become a general and give money to you people, but it's the opposite!

Without saying a word, one of the people who asked for wages would be killed, and by the way, his friends in the army were also killed.

It was very useful, and it succeeded in deterring the soldiers and making them walk honestly for a while.

Soon someone couldn't hold back anymore, and they made a not too much request, just hoping to rest for a while.

This time, the division commander was very merciful and agreed, and after letting a few energetic young men go out and grab some food casually, he sat in the headquarters and wrote a letter to his little mistress.

Then the division was taken by the Germans, and not a single Slav was left alive next to Trabzon.

However, some ingenious German big-headed soldiers turned over a lot of things in the headquarters, but most of them were useless.

According to accurate statistics, of the total of more than 3,200 pieces of paper, only 1,400 were serious, the rest were not very serious, and several of them were burned, but the enthusiastic Germans quickly extinguished the fire, but it was not any important information, but an intimate conversation between him and his little wife.

The two German division commanders were amazed, and when the remaining two division commanders arrived, they also let them take a look. Just like that, a good general is dead.

After regrouping their troops, the four division commanders sent a telegram to Kuster, saying that they could go into battle.

Kuster was very agitated and ordered them to attack from the flanks and penetrate deep into the belly of the Russian army in Turkey.

The Germans were cautious and quickly launched a precise attack.

They traveled along the valley unobstructed and extremely efficiently.

The terrain of Asia Minor is very complicated, winding and rugged, and it is impossible to find the north, but the Germans are like closing the fog of the battlefield, and the rapid speed cannot be stopped.

The well-trained Germans covered 17 kilometers in just five hours and routed the Russian troops along the road.

As more and more Russian troops on the road, they also realized the danger, but the Germanic blood encouraged them to move forward.

The four division commanders hit it off and deployed the main forces on the gentle ground of the right flank, while the Germans on the rugged part of the left flank would serve as the axis of the entire formation.

After the Russian troops on the right flank were driven out, the whole army advanced to the left with the left flank as the axis, closing the gap between the Caucasus and Asia Minor.

Those Russian troops who wanted to take advantage of the weakness of the Turkish army to gain some benefits saw that their flanks were coming, and they were so frightened that they did not dare to advance, and hurriedly retreated.

But their march was too slow, and neither their execution nor intelligence were far inferior to the Germans, making it difficult for them to move here, so that they did not retreat as fast as the Germans.

Soon, the Germans ignored this group of walking and grinding Russian troops, bypassed them directly, cut off their retreat, and surrounded them by Turkish troops.

Knowing that the Russians who had blocked their retreat wanted to cry without tears, they just wanted to eat, but they really didn't expect to put their lives into it.

Fortunately, at the moment, only the Turks are playing with rifles, and if they stop playing rifles one day and play with cannons, these Russians will all have to die.

Unlike the Russian-Turkish jokes, the elite Germans didn't care at all, but ran more boldly towards the Little Caucasus Mountain, trying to surround all the adventurous Russian troops and make them pay.

The Turkish troops who were still waiting for supplies saw the murderous German troops passing by, their eyes were full of admiration, and at the same time they were moved by the support of Big Brother.

The German division commander saw that their eyes were blazing and they were very energetic, so he went to ask them if they wanted to join him in the Russians.

The Turks naturally refused this invitation, after all, in their eyes, it is natural for the eldest brother to go first, and as the younger brother, he should obediently pick up the leaks and eat in the back. But in fact, the food that each younger brother eats is exchanged for the blood of the eldest brother.

The Germans were disappointed, but they were not hopeful. Rather than counting on the reliability of Germany's allies, it is better to count on Germany's enemies to make mistakes.

The four divisions still marched fiercely towards the Little Caucasus Mountains, encircling many Russian troops on the way, and countless Russians were killed.

By the time the Turkish loophole in the Caucasus had been completely sealed, eight Russian divisions had been surrounded.

You must know that the Russians have only 30 divisions deployed in this area, and even after reinforcement, there are only 34 divisions, and the situation is no less bad than that of the Turkish army on the opposite side with so many troops missing at this moment.

Turkey, celebrating the arrival of the German troops and their achievements, said in the newspapers:

"Since the arrival of the German Expeditionary Force, we have not lost a single battle. So far, there will never be a single Russian army left in the whole of Anatolia. ”
