Bazel led more than 20 staff members and drove eastward in a carriage, walking for about two hours and ten miles, when he encountered the oncoming army of the East African colonies.

Felix stepped forward to greet Bazel: "Bazel, why did you come out, what is the current situation in Zanzibar?" ”

"Alas......" Bazel sighed.

"There was a coup d'état in the Sultanate of Zanzibar, and Bagash bin Saeed took control of the army and imprisoned Sultan Majid bin Saeed, and we were driven out by the men of Bagash bin Saeed."

"Where did the immigrants go? The ship should have arrived today, right? Felix asked.

"It's a European ship coming today, and I'll let them go north to Tanga Harbor." Bazel replied.

Felix's eyes narrowed into a line, and he said in a low tone: "These Zanzibarians are really good at it, tigers are not powerful, if we are sick cats, we must give them some color this time!" ”

Bazel asked a little surprised, "You don't plan to take revenge right now, do you?" Don't you wait for the big army to arrive before you move? ”

Felix said contemptuously: "As for the Zanzibar army, I don't care about it yet, I will educate them first." ”

Bazel was a little worried, "Don't do it, if you mess up, it won't end well." After that, he gestured to Hans Chang with his eyes and persuaded Felix.

Hans Chang put his hand on Bazel's shoulder and comforted: "Don't worry, Felix still does things in a measured way, although he is bold, but we will not do things that he is not sure of, and we are not without long legs, we are not acting well, can we still run." ”

Seeing that these two guys didn't listen to persuasion at all, Bazel asked helplessly, "Then what are you going to do?" ”

Felix spoke: "Of course, we will go to find out the situation first and then make plans, we are not brainless, we just rush up and rush to the rush." ”

Felix has been in East Africa for so long, and he usually fights some uncivilized natives, so he doesn't need to think at all, as long as a platoon of guns hits, he can easily win.

Now that I have encountered a slightly challenging opponent, it can be said that I have been in a drought for a long time, and my heart is itching for a long time.

"Don't go back, we don't have many of us, so join in, and I'll take you back to Dar es Salaam." Felix said to Bazel and the others.

"Okay, I'll trust you this time, we're your subordinates now, you can't fool around." Bazel preached.

Bazel was also a Prussian soldier, and he was not very afraid of war, but he was a little more cautious in character.

"Don't worry! I came to East Africa for a good salary, and my family is still waiting for me to go back! I take my life very seriously, and I haven't enjoyed it yet, so how can I come here. Felix patted his chest and reassured.

The German soldiers in the colonies were indeed hired with high salaries, in addition to the guarantee, it was to look at the battle record, every time they accumulated a war exploit, it was all money, although every time they fought a war, they did not get much, but there were wars in East Africa.

Accumulated up, the income is also very considerable, which is also the reason why Felix and others are happy when they hear the war, especially Zanzibar, a civilized and state-forming force in East Africa, is worth several sweeps of the savage tribes once and more.

Ernst's demand for the colony was to follow the plan, and every expansion had a direction, beyond which he could be considered to be working for Ernstberg.

With regard to the Sultanate of Zanzibar, Ernst's instructions were that no one would offend me, that I would not offend anyone, and that there should be no trouble until the Sultanate of Zanzibar did not threaten the East African colonies.

And the students of the Heixingen Military Academy and the people sent by the consortium will check the effects of the war and the details of the war, and they will not be overly fanatical about the war because they do not rely on their military exploits to get money.

The Sultanate of Zanzibar had not targeted the East African colonies before, so people like Felix couldn't find a reason to do it, and now that the Sultanate of Zanzibar is dying on its own, don't blame Felix for being unkind.

……

In the evening, the weather starts to cool slightly.

Outside the city of Zanzibar.

Felix and his group hid in the jungle not far outside the city, waiting for the intelligence agents to return.

After a while, a man dressed as an Arab came out of Dar es Salaam and into the forest.

"Report to the sir, it has been found out that the enemy is not under martial law, ordinary people can still enter and exit normally, there are no soldiers in the streets anymore, Zanzibar is now in power by Bagashi bin Said, and his people are ...... in the royal palace"

"Very well, you can rest first." Felix commanded.

Turning to the people around him, he said: "It seems that this Bhagash bin Said is indeed not a person who has achieved great things, and he doesn't know that he has provoked people who should not be provoked, and he is not cautious now. ”

"It's not unusual, with my years of experience in Southeast Asia, most of the leaders of these small countries are like this, and there are many people who are more than nobody." Bazel said.

"When it gets dark, we take advantage of the night to enter and hit him by surprise." Felix clenched his fist in front of his chest with one hand and said in a sonorous voice.

As he spoke, he took out a map of Dar es Salaam and pointed to the royal palace on the map.

"Capture the thief and capture the king first, and we will go straight to the enemy's headquarters, so that this Bhagash bin Said will also taste the taste of being captured."

……

At seven o'clock in the evening, it was already dark, and the troops of the East African colonies sneaked into the city, and everything went smoothly into the city, and the royal palace of Dar es Salaam was in the center of the city, a three-story building.

Bagash bin Said was having a celebration feast, and as the first ruler, Bagash bin Said felt that the day was too smooth, seizing power, abolishing the backward system, and expelling the Germanic people from the port of Dar es Salaam.

All of this was done in one day, and Bhagash bin Saeed had a feast to commemorate the success of the first day.

For doctrinal reasons, there was no alcohol on the table, and in addition to coffee, there was also coconut.

Bhagash bin Said held a coconut and said to the crowd: "Today is the greatest ...... Zanzibar has ever seen"

Before the words fell, I heard a sudden chaos outside the palace, "bang, bang, bang......" gunshots rang out one after another.

"What's going on? Abdullah, go and see! Bhagash bin Saeed shouted angrily: "Who is not here today? ”

The first thing that came to Bagash bin Saeed's mind was the remnants of Majid bin Saeed.

The ministers here looked at each other, and at this time you are the only one in the hands of Bagash bin Said! Could it be the Germanic people of the East African colonies, shouldn't they!

If they want to take revenge, they have to gather men and horses, and it will take two or three days to rush over!

Although everyone knows that there are two or three hundred East African colonial garrisons not far from Dar es Salaam, two or three hundred people should not be so reckless!

This is the addition of the Prussian military soul that I don't know about Felix's character.

Although Prussia was a war madman in the eyes of Europeans, in fact the quality of the Prussian army was only that in the eyes of the Great Powers.

Prussia was not a top player in continental Europe until it overthrew the French, even though Prussia had beaten Austria before.

However, everyone tacitly attributed the reason for Prussia's victory to the fact that Austria was not in a good state, after all, the nationalism of Hungary and various localities in the country was against the water, Italy attacked from the side, Austria was not fully prepared, and Prussia quickly negotiated peace with Austria, so the intensity of the war was not so great.

And Prussia's most brilliant record is that during the period of Frederick the Great, it was one enemy and three enemies, and this account should be counted on Frederick's own genius military ability, after all, it was the Russians who let Prussia escape in the end.

Prussia was also reduced to ruins, and later there were figures like Napoleon, who rode their faces throughout Germany, and the whole of Germany was in a slightly better situation with Austria at that time.

And Felix was the most extreme of the many low-level soldiers in Prussia, that is, he retired from Prussia when he was old.

But Felix can't be idle at all, can't he come to Africa to bully and bully the natives if he doesn't fight in Europe?

The natives of Africa are too disappointing for Felix, and none of them can fight, so it is natural to touch Zanzibar with a little strength.

Outside the palace, Felix calmly commanded the battle, these Zanzibar soldiers were too weak, this was Felix's idea.

"The first shift, the throwers are ready, and they are still aiming at me, and they are all blowing up at the gate."

Due to the conditions of the East African colonies, grenades were the only weapons of mass destruction, except for the shore artillery at Tanga Harbor.

Due to the popularization of artillery and the upgrading of fortifications in European countries, the importance of throwers has become less and less.

When the grenade arrives in East Africa, it becomes a "nuclear weapon", and no matter how hard the stubble in the indigenous people is, throw a grenade and pop it out, and immediately hug their heads and run away.

After all, there were also crumbs like Leopold who lit fire with a magnifying glass in the Congo and used batteries to electromesise and act as gods.

The power of the grenade is like the power of death, and the natives who have never seen the world even bow to the ground and ask the gods for forgiveness.

Naturally, Zanzibar's "advanced" army, which has rudimentary artillery, will not be scared away by grenades in the same way as the natives.

However, Felix did not plan to use a grenade to defeat Zanzibar.

The royal palace of Zanzibar is a three-storey building with a large volume, made of masonry, because it is the royal palace, the Zanzibar soldiers have no time to build a position, and can only resist with the help of the walls of the palace.

The gates and windows of the palace were the few firing ports, so Felix concentrated his ammunition in an attempt to break through from the direction of the gate.

"Boom......" There was a loud bang, and half of the palace gate collapsed directly.

The Zanzibar soldiers in front of the gate went directly to Allah, and the soldiers behind the gate also lay on the ground and wailed, because of the twists and turns in the structure of the palace, it was difficult to fill the vacancy in the first place.

Felix heard that there was no gunfire in front of the palace gate, drew his saber, waved it and pointed forward, and shouted: "Soldiers, victory is ahead, rush in with me!" ”

"Kill ......"

Due to the darkness, the Zanzibar soldiers did not know the number of enemies, so they did not dare to fight outside the palace, and after the sudden attack of the colonial army, they hid in the palace.

The palace was restricted by the terrain and was not easy to fight back, so it was blocked by the well-equipped East African colonial soldiers.

Abdullah, who had a bright head, had already run away in the dark and came in search of a voice, but before he could take command, he was captured by four or five East African colonial soldiers.

The Zanzibar soldiers had no intention of resisting, some fled through the windows, and some walked through the building.
