Chapter 89 Face the Wolf King

Wolf King, this is the honorific name of the Ottomans for their most powerful war beasts, covered with cast iron armored carriages, equipped with 75mm field guns and 105mm howitzers rotating turret, in addition, there are countless Maxim Machine guns and flamethrowers, this heavy armored monster with spikes can run in the desert at a speed of 30 kilometers per hour, which is already considered the top level of coal-fired locomotives of this period.

In addition to the powerful firepower, the armored train also carried dozens of well-equipped Ottoman contingent soldiers. They had flamethrowers, light machine guns, shotguns, and grenade launchers. These veterans of war were used for reconnaissance when the Wolf King was fighting. The car chased the remnant enemy.

In addition to his own force, the Wolf King also has a small partner, a 170mm railway gun from Germany, code-named Samuel. The death storm created by this gun can shred people and bunkers in a radius of tens of meters, relying on this combination of distance and proximity. It can be said that unless the British are willing to pull over the battleship to bombard, the Arabs will have no way to solve it.

"Have you figured out what to do with that train?" After leaving the tent, the British officer from Egypt chased up. What he was worried about was not Fisher's bragging, but he was worried about Fisher pulling the fee. Prince Thrall’s men and horses were sent in a wave, so that the British had to face the Ottomans on their own.

   "Of course, but maybe I need a little help!" Fisher pulled the British lieutenant colonel, "I need a light machine gun, k-balls, and 75mm field gun shells!"

   "Why should I help you?"

   "You have nothing to lose because I am dead, but if you succeed, there will be an extra sentence in the battle report under the wise command of a British lieutenant colonel! How about a business that makes a profit without losing money?"

  The lieutenant colonel squirmed a few times, then nodded, "Yes, I will give you what you need. I just hope you can understand that the direction of the war is not that you can eliminate hundreds of Ottoman soldiers to determine the victory of the war!"

   "But at least it can speed up the process of the war!" Fisher easily gave the opponent a captured Ruger.

   "Be careful!"

  ………………………………………………………………

Since he was going to trouble the Wolf King, Fisher did a lot of homework. In the previous month’s attack, his goal was to pick the main points of the Wolf King’s patrol route. There were hundreds of prisoners of war, many of whom were officers and noncommissioned officers. Fisher gave them two choices, either to spend three days in the desert naked, or to tell everything he knew and enter the prison camp.

  Between life and death, the Ottoman officer made his own choice.

  Through the collected intelligence, Fisher discovered the weakness of the Wolf King. This armored train has no radio station!

The importance of the radio station is self-evident in later generations, but it is still in World War I, and the radio technology is far less advanced and reliable than later generations. Therefore, the actions of this wolf king are mobilized through the flying pigeons. Every time the wolf king is mobilized It takes three carrier pigeons to send three types of confirmation codes, and the three commanders are in different locations to prevent the possibility of being caught in one go. The most important thing is that the communication information is all the code, that is to say, Fisher and they need A cipher book!

  "Where is the codebook? How did we do it?" Zara, who has always been interested in bombing the train, is excited at this moment and can't wait to carry the explosive bag directly on it.

  "The task force, there must be a task force for the Ottoman anti-guerrillas!" Fisher put down his pen and looked at Ali who was eating melons.

   "What's the matter?" Ali looked at Fischer dumbfoundedly. He didn't know anything about military affairs. He wanted to sleep lazily, but was pulled over by Zara to let him learn something.

  "You should have a lot of tribal friends!"

   "Yes, what's the matter?"

  "Help me to find out what the Ottoman contingent is doing. Use the seized materials as you like, I just want the results!"

"Okay, no problem!" Ali nodded. He didn't understand the battle, but getting news is his strong point. Otherwise, he wouldn't be responsible for receiving Fisher. As for the cost, the Mauser rifles that Fisher seized. Enough to dismiss other Arab tribes!

   More than a hundred rifles were thrown down, and there was a return soon. A survivor of an Arab tribe who had just been suppressed came directly to the door and said that he did not want to pay, just follow Fisher to get revenge!

  Sinai Desert

Eight in the morning

An Ottoman task force has just completed its task of eradicating the guerrillas. The Ottoman soldiers who have been fighting for many days are sleeping quietly in the carriage. They are about to return to the base for a few days of rest, so their vigilance is greatly reduced. Notice that there is a missing section at the turn of the rail in front of the train.

  With a loud noise, the galloping troop transport train unexpectedly rushed out of the track, the buckles linking the carriages were torn apart, and a section of the carriages, like a rake, drove deep trenches in the desert.

   "Bang!" An Ottoman soldier struggling to climb out of the carriage still had a blood hole in his chest before he got up. The yellowish uniform was quickly stained red.

Then came the ensemble of various machine gun rifles, Lee Enfield, Rose, Martini Henry, Mannrich rifle, Mauser and m95. Hundreds of Bedouin guerrilla soldiers who had been ambushing again raised their own. Weapons, leaning wildly toward those carriages with firepower, firing and changing bullets, pulling bolts and bolts, they are here to get the codebook this time, so they can’t leave alive and evidence!

  The gunfire continued for ten minutes, until the wooden carriage could not be broken anymore, and Fisher ordered a ceasefire.

"Keep your eyes wide open, don't leave a living mouth, check the battlefield carefully, all the dead soldiers' bodies are placed here, and you are not allowed to touch the deceased's property! Weapons and ammunition are all stacked neatly, and the captains of each team always pay attention to the number of their players! "While calling out these newly joined guerrillas, Fisher arbitrarily pulled open a section of the damaged carriage.

Weapons, ammunition, and some medical supplies. These are all in the carriage. Unlike the European battlefields that have been fought and exhausted, the cruelty of the Middle East battlefield is far less than that of Europe. At least these Ottoman contingents did not succeed. Box of gas bombs and incendiary bombs.

After searching all the carriages carefully, Fisher found what he wanted in the officer's carriage near the convoy. It was a small notebook in a sealed tin box. This is the codebook of the Ottoman army. With this , Fisher can execute the next step!
