My Italian

A young man from the Haromir tribe in northwestern Tunisia fell in love with a girl from a tribe in French Algeria. At that time, border management between the two countries was lax, and intermarriage between border tribes occurred from time to time.

Once, a young man went to French Algeria to visit the woman's relatives, but was unexpectedly killed by the woman's cousin, who was dissatisfied with the relationship between the two, and the two tribes clashed. The Haromir tribe of Tunisia crossed the border to attack the tribes of French Algeria, and the tribes of French Algeria also crossed the border to fight back.

Faced with such a heaven-sent opportunity, how can the French, who have no excuses, miss it. First, they encouraged the Haromir tribe in Tunisia to take revenge and provided guns and ammunition. Later, he turned to support the French Algerian tribes to resist, so that this transnational murder case gradually evolved from a tribal conflict into a local war.

After the escalation of the situation, France plausibly accused Tunisia of occupying the territory of French Algeria and harming the interests of France and Algeria.

Moreover, before Tunisia could **** its head for a reply, the French troops who had been prepared for a long time immediately sent troops, and the French troops from Algeria appeared on the soil of Tunisia.

Their first trophy was the border city of Telf. ​​This small border town with more than 10,000 people fell naturally after being attacked by more than 20,000 French troops.

Hundreds of Tunisian troops in the city escaped and scattered, leaving only a mess. The residents of the city are hiding in their own rooms, watching the French troops through the cracks of the door with a rough expression. Their only hope now is these French people, and don't cause too much trouble to the city.

The French army in Algeria did not hide what they were doing in Algeria. For these hungry French people, many families were dressing their children in various ways, no matter how ugly they were.

It's just that their worries are about to fail. The French commander who led the team did not stay to "relax". Instead, after leaving a battalion to maintain law and order and wait for the follow-up troops, they continued to march non-stop, even if they took a break to catch their breath. No.

Because General Pelissier, the commander of this combat mission, has already stated that the word of this combat mission is fast. Every day needs to be planned, how many kilometers to advance, and where to hit, the minimum amount is clearly stipulated in the battle plan. Of course, the French commander who served as the vanguard did not dare to neglect the task, and he kept urging the troops to move forward.

Of course, this was not the only French army the residents of Telf saw today. A few hours later, most of the mighty French army appeared in front of them. The mighty cavalry, lined up in a neat line carrying rifles, and the cannons in the back half of the line, which are too numerous to count, are being driven forward by several horses, and beyond the cannons, the logistics carriages covered with canvas are equally huge. Incomparable. The dust it raised covered the sky and made even well-informed local residents feel uneasy.

General Pelissier, who was in charge of commanding this military operation in the team, could be said to be very satisfied. This military operation was completely like a march to him.

The kingdom of Tunisia has a few pounds and a few taels. He has been in Algeria for many years, and he doesn't take it seriously.

Although the Tunisian ruler, Mohamed Sadiq III, began to imitate the Westernization of Egypt's Khdiv (Ottoman Turkish, meaning governor) Muhammad Ali two decades ago, he implemented a series of reforms, Focus on developing the economy, improving education levels, improving infrastructure and communication facilities, and purchasing new weapons for the army and navy, using Western-style training methods.

However, Tunisia's economic situation and political system hindered the implementation of reforms: the weak economy was unable to provide the funds needed to implement reforms; the old tax system allowed only one-fifth of the taxes collected to go to the national treasury, and the rest were all collected by local governments. Officials are full of personal pockets, and the Tunisian central government lacks authority and executive power to ensure that reforms are implemented at the lowest level.

The only result is that his guards are well equipped, and the training seems to be okay, but unfortunately too few, but with only 3,000 people, it is absolutely impossible for him to be an opponent of the elite French army.

To put it bluntly, in the wild, General Perissier only needed 1,500 men to defeat the opponent.

Not to mention that he now has more than 30,000 troops in his hands. Of course, he knows that his opponents may not only be Tunisians, but also their good neighbors, Italians.

He was also not afraid of the possible threat from the Italians. These Italians, who rely on the help of France to unify, are worrying about their combat effectiveness. It's been proven in previous battles with the Austrians that putting hope in them will make you vomit blood.

Of course, there are also less incompetent Italians, that is Garibaldi's red shirts, but this old guy is already old, I wonder if he can still recognize the symbols of the battle map?

For this military operation, General Pelissier was full of confidence.

When General Pelissier led the French army to Tunis, a large number of warships were also sailing with a dry transport in the outer sea. The crowd stood on the transport ship, all dressed in French uniforms. That's right, this is the Marine Corps of the French Navy. This time, in order to cooperate with the Army's actions, the Navy also sent out 8,000 Marines this time, and their target It is Binzet outside Tunis.

In the face of the French invasion, the Tunisian government did not know about it at first, and they only got the news the next day. This was the news brought by a British merchant ship. This news made the Tunisian government panic. have ideas

It was suggested that the French should apologise and ask them to stop military operations against Tunisia.

Others suggested that Britain and Italy be invited to mediate their conflict with France.

In addition, some people think that just retreating like this is not enough. It is best to show France Tunisia's determination to defend its homeland. UU read www.uukanshu. com rallied armies and tribes from all over to resist the French invasion.

Mohammed Sadiq III, who is in power, is overwhelmed by the gossip of these people's suggestions, but now that the French invasion is imminent, he must make up his mind as soon as possible, whether it is war or peace or whatever, it needs to be as soon as possible To find ways to.

Although Sadiq III was not a wise man, he had the power in his hands for more than 20 years, and he immediately thought of his idea.

"First we need to get in touch with the French to see what's going on. We also need to contact the British and the Italians and ask them to mediate, and we need to call up the army to get the tribes out and let them come to Tunis. We need to strengthen ourselves. Strength, let the French cast their arms."

I have to say that Sadiq has not been a scumbag for more than 20 years, so he immediately came up with several ways to prepare. However, he underestimated the determination of the French this time. Just as the ministers were each leading their orders to go out, suddenly a squire rushed in in a hurry.

"The French fleet has appeared in Binzet. The enemy is shelling the defenders, and it is almost impossible to resist."

The news immediately exploded, and many people did not expect the French to come so quickly.

This news is actually too late. The garrison stationed in Binzet disappeared in a hurry after the appearance of the enemy fleet. At least they knew to inform the Tunisian government.

In addition to the damage caused by shelling, Binzet is now full of French landings.

"Contact the UK and Italy immediately and ask them to mediate."

At this time, Sadiq III, who got the news, felt that the situation was not good, and asked for mediation as a priority.

With the order of Sadiq III, Italy finally knew the news of the accident in Tunisia.
