Video - The Brave Soldier Who Stood Guard

There was no one there, but they always called out at regular intervals, as if they saw someone... Thus, they announced that they were always awake and on duty. In addition, these soldiers would hand over the watch to other friends every hour. One night, the Sultan again hears voices from his guard post: - Who is it? - Who is there?.. It attracts the Sultan's attention. This sound has not changed even though an hour has passed. However, the guard must change every hour. He waits for a while and pays attention to the sound again. Surprise, the sound is the previous sound. Why hasn't the guard changed? Sultan Abdulhamid Khan immediately calls the relevant people and says he wants to learn the situation. Because he narrowly escaped a devastating bomb assassination attempt against him. And this incident is still new. Is an Armenian game being staged again? A little later, the guard whose watch has not changed is in the presence of the Sultan. He waits with his face on the ground with excitement and fear. The Sultan asks: - How many hours have you been on duty? - It took nearly an hour and a half, my Majesty. - Why didn't you delegate your duties at the beginning of the hour? - My Hunkar, the friend after me requested it, so I'm keeping watch in his place. - Why? Why are you breaking the rules? That brave Mehmetçik lowers his blessed head in shame. His timidity increases and he doesn't want to say it. But upon the Sultan's insistence, he speaks as follows: - My Sultan, the guard after me has experienced a revolution. He said, "I cannot take part in the protection of the Caliph-i Muslim while I am in this state. Please, keep watch in my place, and then I will keep watch in your place." I confirmed too. Sultan Abdülhamid Han was very pleased with this kindness of the Mehmetçik. In the morning, he immediately brings the soldier who is not on duty without performing ablution to him. Expresses satisfaction with his behavior during the night
