The already anxious Turkish Army, upon seeing such a large scale of land forces, instinctively pushed the cannons out from within the fort. Many soldiers held their rifles level, aiming at the distant army, ready to let these Russian soldiers know their strength once they got closer.
As this army drew nearer to the vicinity of Tabiaron Castle, the defensive officer at Tabia Fortress saw the military flag and national flag of this army through his telescope.
The tricolor flag symbolizing the French Empire and the Union Jack symbolizing the Kingdom of Britain fluttered in the wind.
"Hold on!" The defensive officer shouted the order for his men to lower their weapons. He knew that this army before them had come to aid them.
"Sir, why aren't we firing? They've killed so many of us!" shouted an Egyptian soldier who knew nothing about national flags towards the officer.
"Fool, they are here to help us," the defensive officer yelled angrily.
