Chapter 660 The Capital of Kurdistan
Rebellion is a technical job.
Like the Turkish army in later generations, they plotted a coup, but the coup turned into a farce, and the soldiers were actually dealt with by the police! Without firm determination, unified leadership, and a complete action plan, it would be like a child playing house. It would be a miracle if it didn’t fail!
And now, this uprising of the Kurdistan Workers' Party is a completely organized, premeditated and successful action!
During this uprising, Ocalan remained calm and composed and commanded calmly, making immortal contributions to the establishment of the entire Kurdistan. In later generations, Ocalan was also known as the father of the Kurds. Countless novels describe his heroic deeds in commanding the Kurds to fight against the Turkish government. Among them, the capture of Diyarbakir is a very good story!
Not many people really know the inside story. Öcalan never thought about directly capturing Diyarbakir. Although he has ambitious goals, his command ability is definitely not that rich.
Ocalan planned to capture Tatvan step by step, continue to attack the surrounding areas, and gradually expand the territory. However, at this time, he received a secret message from General Andrei across the border, who gave him advice. Taking advantage of the current lack of troops in Diyarbakir, he could take Diyarbakir in one fell swoop and officially make it the capital!
After careful consideration, Ocalan accepted Andrei's advice, led his troops westward, crossed mountains and rivers, and suddenly appeared on the outskirts of Diyarbakir.
During this process, with the help of KGB agents, some members of the Kurdistan Workers' Party had sneaked into the city. At this time, the war had not yet spread here, and the local government did not care at all. There was not even a checkpoint on the street. This gave them an opportunity, and a lot of light weapons were transported here!
Then, these members of the Kurdistan Workers' Party aroused the emotions of the surrounding people with a few words of incitement. They took up weapons and launched a fierce attack on the government building!
"Da da, da da da." The guns of several men standing guard in front of the government building were empty, with no bullets at all. They fell down after being swept by a volley of bullets.
"Charge, charge in, kill all these Turks!" There were constant voices shouting in the ears, and everyone was filled with murderous intent.
"Da da da." At this time, the door of the building opened and some people were running out in panic. The Kurds in front of them were not polite at all. They fired bullets like a torrential rain and killed all these people!
The steps were dyed red with blood. The Turks had oppressed the Kurds for many years, and now they were finally paying for it with their lives!
Keep going! Kill anyone you see! Almost all the people working in this building are Turks! Kurds are an inferior race, and it is impossible for them to get such a job!
On the third floor, a stylishly dressed Turkish girl was trembling and hiding in a room. When the door was kicked open, her eyes were full of fear. On the other side, several Kurdish youths rushed in and saw the girl. Their eyes lit up immediately. With smiles on their faces, they reached out their big hands and pushed the girl into the corner...
War has always been cruel and inhumane!
When the T-55 tanks rumbled into the city, the Kurdistan flag had already been hoisted on the government building! The whole city was filled with a bloody smell, and on the streets, there were crowds of people reveling!
"This is a great moment for our Kurdish nation!" A few minutes later, sitting in front of the TV camera, Ocalan gave a speech: "After a bloody battle, we finally recaptured our Kurdish city, Diyarbakir. This city will become the capital of our Kurdistan! I, Ocalan, a fighter of the Kurdish nation, here sincerely welcome the Kurds to support our new government and new country, and continue to fight for our motherland. No matter which country you come from, as long as you are a Kurd, you can come to Turkey. This will become a beautiful home for our Kurdish people!"
Diyarbakir fell just like that and became the capital of Kurdistan established by the Kurds!
The news quickly spread around the world!
Moscow sent a congratulatory message at the first opportunity, expressing appreciation for the great achievements made by the Kurdish people. Moreover, Moscow decided to start state-to-state exchanges with Kurdistan as soon as possible, including establishing a Soviet embassy in Kurdistan and sending diplomatic personnel.
The Soviet Union's support for Kurdistan was written on its face. At that time, the PKK was still treated as a terrorist organization in the United Nations. There were arguments in the daily meetings. The Soviet representative insisted that there was no Israel back then. Wasn't it also established by the Jews on the land of Palestine? If so, why can't the Kurds now establish their own country? There should be no double standards on international issues!
At the same time, countries friendly to the Soviet Union have also begun to recognize Kurdistan one after another, and it seems that this country will soon be established!
The Turkish government certainly would not see this happen! On the third day after the fall of Diyarbakir, the Turkish border guards finally arrived in Diyarbakir and began their battle.
"Boom!" The 155mm howitzer continued to roar, and the shells crossed the sky and flew into the city of Diyarbakir.
"Boom!" This shell just hit a hospital! As the shell exploded, one side of the three-story hospital building collapsed!
There is no Turk in the whole Diyarbakir! Therefore, the Turkish counterattack is also quite fierce. Regardless of military or civilian targets, their fundamental goal is to bomb the entire Diyarbakir into ruins!
The city is full of ruins after the bombing, and when the howitzer bombing is over, the Turkish Air Force fighter jets will fly over and continue bombing the city!
Hiding in an underground bunker, looking at the swaying electric lights and falling dust above his head, Ocalan's face looked a little ugly.
The Kurds' pursuit of independence, freedom and nation-building will not be smooth sailing. Ocalan is mentally prepared. However, the Turkish counterattack was so swift that it was difficult for Ocalan to resist. At this time, he even doubted whether it was a suitable choice to hastily seize Diyarbakir.
Could it be that General Andrei is harming his side? Ocalan couldn't help but think depressedly.
"President, the Turks have begun to attack the city!" At this moment, someone next to him said.
After a few days, the city was already on the verge of collapse, and the Turks lost their last patience and began to attack the city!
