My Italian

The battle near Adrianople has been going on for eight days, and during these eight days, the Ottoman army has launched a large-scale attack again and again.

Every time it looked, the Bulgarians' position was about to be overwhelmed. It seems that as long as one more attack is launched, it will collapse. However, it was only when they actually attacked again that they found that the Bulgarians who could not be killed like Xiaoqiang emerged from the trenches, and among them, the Bulgarian Ninth Division, which was sticking to Peter Taro, was the most tenacious.

Peter Taro, where the division was stationed, was the middle point of the Bulgarian defense line. As long as the Ottomans took this place, the Bulgarian position would be divided into two parts. At that time, it is up to the Ottomans to decide whether to divide the outflank or break them one by one.

So facing the point of Peter Tarot, the Ottomans prepared four divisions, took turns to fight against the ninth division, and even launched a rare night battle.

However, the ninth division is not a vegetarian. Under the leadership of the division commander, Colonel Oleg Zotyev, the division stubbornly blocked the opponent's attack.

So the two armies were in the place of Peter Taro, and the sound of fighting between the two sides has not subsided, and waves of soldiers have been thrown into it, so that in the next two years, the plants here are much more lush than the surrounding area.

"Prepare for the bayonet!"

The Bulgarian commander guarding the position saw that the enemy was very close to the position, and immediately ordered the officers and soldiers to use their bayonets. Following his order, the Bulgarian soldiers on the position drew their bayonets from their waists and stuck them on their guns, ready to engage with the enemy who had approached the position.

Living up to their expectations, the Ottoman officers and soldiers who finally took the position also burst into the position with a cry, and the **** hand-to-hand battle began like this.

Hand-to-hand combat is no different than others, and it is very fancy for the courage and skill test of officers and soldiers, so it does not last for a long time. In about a quarter of an hour, the two sides will decide the winner.

As expected, the remaining one-third of the Ottoman officers and soldiers who entered the position were driven out of the position. No way, the Ottomans are worse than the Bulgarians who are holding their positions in every way. Whether it is in courage, or in the skills and cooperation of hand-to-hand combat, they are better than their counterparts. The Ottomans who entered the position did not occupy the number. The absolute advantage in the game, so it is normal to lose.

However, although the Ottomans lost, Hamed Riza and others who observed the battlefield situation from a distance were very satisfied. He saw through the binoculars that after the hand-to-hand battle, only half of the Bulgarians could stand up.

"Good fight, Major General Fana."

In the face of Riza's praise, the Ottoman 41st division commander, His Excellency, dare not bear it. "This is because Your Excellency came to the front line in person, and made the officers and soldiers burst into a spirit of fighting for their lives, but unfortunately it is still a little worse, otherwise the enemy will be defeated."

Major General Faner's modest words satisfied everyone present. The ability of Major General Fana can be seen from the combat effectiveness of his officers and soldiers. It is very good to know that the 41st Division was established in less than four months. Although there is also the factor that the defenders of the position are too tired after the continuous fighting, but they can attack the position and still show their ability.

No, Sabah al-Din, who is Riza's right-hand man, justified it. "Major General Faner, you don't have to be humble, you've already played very well. As long as you attack a few more times, it will not be difficult for you to change hands."

When the Ottoman commander was commenting on the enemy, a young officer rushed over with an anxious look.

The sharp-eyed Sabah al-Din immediately recognized the person who was coming. This was Major Dorji of the command. He was mainly responsible for the communication of the command.

I saw Major Duoji trot all the way to Riza, whispering something in his ear. Although I don't know what he was talking about, Riza's expression was good from the beginning, but it immediately turned ugly.

"How many people know this news?"

"It's just me and the dispatcher at the moment."

When other people saw such a scene, they were naturally very curious. However, Riza did not give them a chance to ask questions, and immediately said. "Let's go back first."

With Riza's words, in the 41st Division headquarters, only Major General Faner and his officers remained.

What makes Riza so eager to go back, to know that the enemy's position has broken through in the past few days.

After returning to the headquarters in Andrea Fort, Riza was sending everyone else away, leaving only Sabah al-Din, and then he asked Major Doji to report again.

However, compared with Riza, Sabah al-Din is not enough.

"What, Luleburgat was taken? Who is it?"

No wonder Sabah al-Din was surprised, because the city's location is so important, it is at the midpoint between Andrea Fort and Istanbul, and the main road from Istanbul to Andria Fort must pass here.

In the face of Sabah al-Din's shocking question, Major Dorji told the truth truthfully. "The garrison of Lule Burgat was attacked by a division of the Italians at 8:00 this morning~www.NovelMTL.com~ A regiment garrison stationed in the city resisted, but at 11:19 At that time, the defenders of the city sent the news that the city was about to be destroyed, and then we did not receive the news. In addition, our telegrams with Istanbul were also cut off, and I think the enemy has occupied the city.”

After Major Doji finished reporting, Riza said. "Didn't the defenders send which unit of the enemy division?"

In the face of Riza's question, Major Doji shook his head and said. "There is no telegram in this regard. It is very likely that the division and the others have not investigated it clearly. After the investigation is clear, it will be too late to send a telegram."

Afterwards, Riza and Sabah al-Din continued to ask several questions about the occupation of Lulebourgats, and Major Dorji answered them truthfully.

"Okay, you go out first, this news must not be shared with others."

Riza, who had finished asking, sent Major Doge away first.

"As ordered, Your Excellency."

After Major Doge had left, Riza's face collapsed. "Sabah al-Din, do you think the Italians have arrived and are preparing to encircle us?"

Facing an inquiry from the leader of the party and the hope of the al-Shabaab, Sabah al-Din realized that he did not know much about the military. But since you have asked yourself, you need to give an answer no matter what.

"Your Excellency, it seems that the Italians must have arrived at present, so we need to prepare to retreat quickly. This battle has no way to fight. It is best for us to retreat to the vicinity of Istanbul and rely on the capital's fortifications to confront the enemy."

But it's only now, don't you think it's too late?

In Hassaf, which is less than 35 kilometers away from Adrianople, the coalition troops coming along the Maricha River can already feel the breath of the Os.
