MILLINIUM-TRENDI GENERATION FHADLAN
Episode 81

Abu Ghafur came to give his opinion after being sent by Hamdi's uncle.

"I think we need to know the situation in the latest city of Aden before deciding to return to the city of Aden, the last issue that I heard of the city since we left even in the rebel fighters hounti" abu Ghafur.

"I also heard, let's hear the testimony of our friend who just escaped from Aden"

"Brother Abdurahman try to tell me what happened in Aden for two weeks since we left" Hamdi's uncle said.

A middle-aged man stood up and said his greetings to everyone, before delivering the pact that took place in the city of Aden.

"The battle of Aden had already taken place for two weeks exactly two days after Hamdani's regiment left Aden. Until now the battle was even going on inside the city, a fierce battle for the city of Aden. The fighting took place between the Houthis and those still loyal to the government of President Hadi Abdrabbuh Mansur"

"The fighting began after Houthi forces captured Aden International Airport and President Hadi fled Yemen by boat. pro-hadi forces again attempted to seize the port of Aden but failed to even advance Houthi forces into the city center"

"At this time the battle of the city is getting more exciting after the Houthi forces were helped by the followers of Ali Abdulah Saleh against the parties loyal to Abdrabbuh Mansur Hadi" Abdurahman's story said.

"What?.... Ali Abdullah Saleh's side helped the hauthie rebel?" asked Hamdi in shock.

"Yes, Mr. Hamdi" Abdurahman replied.

"This means that the legitimate government of Yemen is nearing its end, while the militant group is turning its back on the rebels, It seems that it is difficult for us to return to Aden to fight against our own nation" Hamdi said.

"Yes Hamdi.no wonder it is a common human problem, more inclined to lick the ruler of course they do not want to risk helping the losing side" said Abu Ghafur.

"Now if we survive here it is also impossible, because for a long time our supplies will run out. Fhadlan what if we continue to pound the Balqis Empire in Magrib City?" ask Hamdi.

Fhadlan was silent for a moment and then responded to Uncle Hamdi's question.

"Uncle Hamdi ... without the Regiment Hamdani Fhadlan will still seek the Emperor of the Balqis Empire in Magrib Fhadlan said for sure.

"How about the others?" ask uncle Hamdi.

A commander stood up giving his opinion.

"I will accompany the commander of Fhadlan to Magrib but this may be the last battle I follow, if I am saved and still given the chance of life I will perform the Hajj I will pray in front of the kakbah, then ask God for guidance if you must fight to be led to the path of truth and led to the right side as well".

Then the other commander gave his opinion.

"That I agree, I will similarly perform the Hajj and ask for almighty instructions, after several battles we have the spoils of war that are sufficient to pioneer the business. maybe for a while I will start a business in Dubai with a quarter that is already in Dubai"

"What about the others?" ask Hamdi.

"Well my brother, knowing Magrib is an easier option for us than to invade Aden to fight against our own nation" said Hamdi's uncle.

Since then Fhadlan officially on the title of commander of the Aden lion army, Commander of the elite forces of Hamdani regiment and the results of their agreement will still accompany Fhadlan to invade Magrib.

"What is the war strategy we're going to implement uncle?" fhadlan asked as 1 800 Hamdani's regiment began to move towards Magrib City.

"Take the effort from the previous battle only lan, how we can win over them all this time, also rely on God. Let faith answer everything" said uncle hamdi.

"Your uncle Hamdi mu lan, if for illogical matters and future affairs, hand over to the belief to answer it" said Abu Ghafur.

"Ma’rib province in Yemen has a great and classic history. How not, Ma’rib was once the capital of the Kingdom of Saba’ in the past. An ancient kingdom that stood about 1000 years before Christ. Ma’rib has a long history. Being witnesses to change the progress of civilization in Yemen.Since that the Balqis Empire claimed the Magrib City as their capital" said Hamdi.

"According to our Informant, currently the Balqis Empire in the magrib city is supported by 24 000 personnel trained generally they are foreign soldiers recruited from various countries" back uncle Hamdani explains the situation.

Hearing the testimony of uncle Hamdani Fhadlan felt it would be difficult to conquer the Balqis Empire supported by modern weaponry and some high-scientific people. Fhadlan was alarmed when 1,800 soldiers of Hamdani's regiment marched into the city of Magrib. in terms of war techniques, Hamdani regiment is not an expert especially considering that Hamdani regiment is just a civil society that is conjured into the military only overnight. But Fhadlan did not want to express his anxiety to Hamdi's uncle, fearing that he would lower the fighting spirit of Hamdani's regiment.

The Hamdani regiment's assault on Yemen's Marib City has been going on for weeks, becoming their biggest and deadliest war. Hundreds of fighters from both sides have been killed in clashes in the gas-rich Marib region.

"The spirit of the victims on the part of the Balqis Empire is more than that of the Hamdani regiment, and the majority of the victims are fighters, not civilians" they said.

"Yes.. The Hamdani Regiment always gains victory and progress in battle, until we continue to push forward to the forefront of the Balqis Empire, even the defense of the balqis Empire is in Sarwah, Sarwah, to the west of Marib had collapsed, with the frontline now about 20 km from the city" Hamdi's uncle continued to encourage them.

"Here the battle happened increasingly fierce casualties from the enemy were countless but the Hamdani regiment was not yet able to enter the city of Magrib. The Balqis Imperial troops took refuge in one of the city's sturdy fortifications and relied on a living shield of the inhabitants of the city of Magrib. Until this moment the Hamdani Regiment was restrained unable to penetrate their defenses".

"After a long siege, the forces of the Balqis Empire began to be attacked from various fighters, which caused great difficulties to the forces of the Balqis Empire. but they began using dirty techniques relying on some of their highly trained members, kidnapping members of the Hamdani regiment who were on guard or were on separate patrols from the ranks. They move guerrilla from inside the city always lurking their separate members" one of the commanders told uncle Hamdani one afternoon.

"Fhadlan do you have any ideas?" tanya's pregnant.

"Our guard is kidnapped, the kidnapper is like a ghost who moves without knowing when he comes and goes" said Hamdi's uncle.

"At what kidnap did escape.. uncle?" ask Fhadlan.

"They were kidnapped by Lan. within these two days there were six of their victims. Every member of Hamdani's regiment that they managed to kidnap and then they will torture to death or almost die, their bodies and survivors found on the edge of the city" Hamdi's uncle replied.
