The harbor of Cassandra is not big, and can only accommodate medium-sized ships to dock. The Cassandra Fortress is built along the mountain, protecting the small harbor of Cassandra behind him.

A few black smoke appeared in the sky south, and a fleet rushed north quickly. This Turkish naval fleet owned a steam-powered cruiser, a sail battleship, a sail cruiser, five destroyers and 10 transport ships. Their target was the "pirates" hiding in Cassandra.

In the Cassandra Fortress, Kemal went to Thessalonika to meet with the Youth Turkish Party, which was jointly directed by Oli and Oztulk.

"No! There are sailboats inside them, which is simply incredible!" Ollie shouted out in surprise when half of the ships in the fleet in the distance belonged to the last century.

"The USS Erelli cruiser that Philip sank last time is already one of the latest warships in the Turkish Navy!" Oztulk was previously affiliated with the Turkish Navy, so he knows the ships of this country. "There is another cruiser Bursa in the fleet outside that was launched two years ago!"

"I know it, the warship that I chased me for a few hours last time!" Captain Philip felt particularly jealous of enemies when they met.

"Do they just want to use this fleet to attack our fortress?" Ollie was very puzzled. Logically speaking, attacking fortresses requires caliber, long range, and large number of naval guns.

"The Turkish Navy is only that kind of property!" Oztulk shook his head, "But our fortress is really not very good! Turkey's coastal defense is mainly concentrated at the exit of the Dardanelles Strait. Our fortifications are very inconspicuous to Turkey. When I first came here, the fortifications here were disrepaired and the weapons were outdated and backward! If I hadn't won some cannons from the Turkish Navy a few years ago, we would probably have to fight them with the original mortars!"

At this time, the captain of the Bursa Izette was also observing the fortress in the distance. According to his information, the Turkish Navy left a total of 4 58mm cannons in this fortress, 1 75mm cannon, 1 121mm cannon, and 1 170mm howitzer imported from France. He had about 50 naval guns, which could completely suppress his opponent in terms of firepower. The only thing Izette was worried about now was the submarine. If it attacked from behind while its fleet attacked the fortress, it would be very dangerous. On the transport ship next to him, 8,000 Turkish soldiers were ready to go and prepared to snatch the stall to occupy the fortress.

At noon, the sailing battleship Bergama first began shelling the Cassandra Fortress, followed by the Bursa and the Joellu cruisers, while their five destroyers guarded the transport ships.

When the ship entered the range, the fortress's artillery fire began to fight back, but because Izette kept allowing his fleet to move quickly, the hit rate of both sides was very low. In the next two hours, the main plug was hit by several 120mm caliber naval shells, and Izette's fleet was only hit once by the 58mm caliber cannon and 75mm caliber cannon cannon shells, and both sides suffered very little casualties.

When the last shell shell exited from the barrel of the 121mm caliber cannon in the fortress, Oztulk realized that he seemed to have been fooled. The purpose of the other shelling seemed to be to consume his ammunition. He immediately ordered to stop shooting, but at this time there were only a few shells left from the other fortress cannons.

Seeing the fortress stopping the shelling, Izette smiled proudly. This shelling tactic was originally intended to avoid possible attacks from the opponent's submarine, but now it seems that the opponent's shells have been consumed greatly. A few minutes later, the Turkish soldiers on the transport ship began to advance to the beach in small boats. When they arrived at the beach successfully, Izette's fleet also stopped shelling.

The Cassandra Fortress consists of the main subway and two beach fortresses, which were abandoned at the beginning of the shelling. The Turkish soldiers quickly climbed the beach and began to advance towards the main subway, everything seemed to be as expected by Izette.

After the shelling stopped, Kemal and Ollie's troops re-entered the main plug and dug circular field fortifications with trenches and trenches in front of the main plug.

"You said that when we defeated the soldiers on the beach, will their warships dare to fire at their own people?" Main Seri, Oli stabbed Oztulk next to him.

"It's hard to say! The Turkish Navy is not a gentleman, but their relationship with the army will be even more stale!" Oztulk looked at the Turkish soldiers advancing on the beach, looking a little annoyed. Due to his little mistakes, these "Turkish rabbits" had not eaten a shell since they got off the ship. Now the remaining shells in his hand can only be used to prevent the opponent's warship from forcing them into the harbor.

The first wave of about 2,000 Turkish soldiers had already landed, and their boats returned to the transport ship to transport the next batch of troops. The first soldiers who arrived ashore had reached 500 meters in front of the main subway.

"Guys, start shooting rabbits!" Oli pulled out his pistol and fired the first shot of the counterattack on Cassandra Beach. In an instant, dozens of machine guns spewed out flames and knocked down the Turkish soldiers who rushed to the front one by one. The Turkish soldiers quickly retreated to the beach. At this time, the artillery soldiers hidden in the woods behind the fortress also began to speak. The entire Cassandra Beach was quickly covered by artillery fire. There was almost nothing to cover on the bare beach. The Turkish blood quickly dyed the beach red. After just a few rounds of artillery bombardment, the Turkish soldiers on the beach all raised their hands to surrender.

Seeing the first wave of soldiers rushing to the beach being taken away by the other party with their heads in their arms, Izette on the Bursa in the distance looked even worse than a pig's liver. He threw the telescope to the ground and cursed the useless army.

"Notify all ships to prepare for artillery attacks! Thrill bombard their fortresses and artillery positions behind the fortresses!"

After half an hour of crazy shelling, Ezet ordered his destroyer to approach the beach and use naval guns to suppress fire after the second wave of soldiers rushed to the beach. However, when they focused on the beach, Captain Philip quietly slipped out of the port with his U-006 and U007.

After the Turkish destroyers left, their transport ships became the best target of attack. When the Turks rushed to the beach for the second time and their destroyers were plowing the land in front of the fortress with guns, two transports far behind them suddenly exploded violently, and the Turkish soldiers on the ship jumped into the sea like dumplings. When Izette's cruiser and destroyers arrived again, Philip's submarine was no longer visible.

On the beach, the Turkish soldiers were once again killed by machine guns, but were suppressed tightly on the beach. At this time, the artillery soldiers who had moved to the new position also began to drive away two destroyers near the beach. While Izette was running back and forth with his warships, the second wave of Turkish soldiers and a destroyer had wiped out the battle sequence of the Turkish reactionary army.

At this time, Izette felt so helpless. His opponent looked so cunning that he could only stare at the corpses on the beach and the destroyer slowly sinking with thick smoke. He gritted his teeth and spit out two words: Retreat!

During their retreat, Philip and his ghostly submarine sent a sail cruiser and a transport ship to the bottom of the sea, expanding the losses of the Turkish government forces in the battle to 2 ships, 3 transport ships and 5,000 soldiers. In addition to the severe consumption of fortress shells, their side only paid the price of more than 100 casualties.

After that, the Turkish government never launched an attack on Cassandra from sea, but they began to pay attention to the protection of merchant ships, and the merchant ships were equipped with small-caliber artillery. Kemal's pirate tactics came to an end. However, their submarines still maintained a huge threat to the Turkish government's route on the Aegean Sea. Soon, the Turkish reactionary government sent troops to launch a large-scale offensive from land and quickly advanced to Thessalonika. Cassandra would be attacked from land again, but this situation was exactly what Kemal wanted.

Cassandra's victory did not bring any joy to Chen Tian. After the Turkish ambassador once again protested to the German government, he was once again recruited into the palace by the emperor.

Bang!

The emperor threw a stack of documents in front of Chen Tian.

"Look! These are documents from the Turkish government protesting our German government's support for the Turkish rebels. I have warned you before to handle Turkey with caution! Do you want to push Türkiye into the arms of the British?"

Chen Tian glanced at the documents. Although the Turkish government did not provide clear evidence, they still believed that the rebels who did not have Kemal received financial and weapon assistance from Germany, and protested that the planes provided to them were always flawed, and even claimed to seek technical and economic support from the British. Fortunately, Kemal's Turkish Democratic Party had separated from the Youth Turkish Party at this time. The Turkish government did not obtain information from the submarines from Germany from any "rebels" this time, which would trigger more intense diplomatic disputes.

"You have become more and more self-righteous recently, and you are less and less careful about me! Don't think that my grandfather gave you the status of Prince of East Prussia, and I will not take it back!"

Chen Tian felt a little uneasy when he saw the emperor roaring for the first time. He didn't say anything, but just stood there with his head down. Don't think he was cowardly. He just remembered that if he was caught by the police when he ran a red light, don't talk back. Wait for the police to finish nagging, and naturally he won't make things difficult for you. If you pretend to be pitiful, you might even be exempted from 5 yuan.

Sure enough, after the emperor got angry alone, he sat back on his chair and saw Chen Tian silently, his tone also relaxed.

"Jiji, remember to put Germany's interests first in everything, don't always think about developing your own power! I will teach you a lesson in this matter. Next month you will go to the Far East and I will appoint you as the governor of Qingdao, China. I hope you can go there to reflect and practice it by the way!"

Chen Tian nodded silently. He didn't expect the emperor to be so angry about this. Did he really do it too much? Or did he feel his peeping of the imperial power? Fortunately, he didn't really want to abolish his prince's title, so that he might have to go into exile to the Netherlands like him in 10 years.

"In addition, do you really have confidence in that Kemal?" The emperor suddenly asked about Kemal.

"Yes, Your Majesty! I don't think it will take long for him to overthrow the current Turkish government. Then no one will talk about what we do in Turkey!" Chen Tian was still very confident about Kemal, so he dared to boldly send aircraft and submarines to Turkey for practical tests. Moreover, the current situation in Turkey is not accompanied by foreign forces, so he does not have to worry too much that these weapons and tactics will be familiar to other countries in the world. This situation is like the Spanish Civil War before World War II in his previous world. That war has become a good weapon test site for the Germans - the Air Force has powerful power, and the large-scale concentrated use of the Air Force has achieved significant results. The cluster tanks have achieved great success in carrying out impacts with the support of artillery and aviation firepower.

"That's it! Then your 4312 soldiers, 15 planes and 2 submarines will stay there! I also think that the Turkish government can't hold on for long!" The emperor suddenly said this, but Chen Tian was shocked. The emperor actually knew the troops he sent to Turkey in such detail, which was a bit terrifying.

"Your Majesty, then my East Prussian Legion and the Baltic Squadron..." Chen Tian remembered that if he had gone to Asia, these two troops would have no commander.
