This is my first timeline like this, so please comment and help.
September 8, 1921
Giánnis Lesvoulos wished that the battle would be over soon. The fighting along the Sangarios River had been going on for 17 days, and their looked to be no end in sight. While he wasn’t in direct fighting, guarding the left flank of the army, unable to help fight the Turks, sure was stressful.
“Hey Giánnis,” whispered Konstantínos, one of his friends in the army, “looks like we got ourselves some Turks trying to outflank us”
Giánnis looked over Mount Chal, and saw that Konstantínos was right, as small party of Turkish soldiers were coming around the mountain. Giánnis and his fellow soldiers opened fire on them. Some fell instantly, but many quickly fell to the ground and started firing back. Giánnis felt pretty safe behind his bush, and continued to fight. He noticed the officer of the party, and fired at him, hitting him in the stomach. The battle continued for about half an hour more before the Turks retreated. Giánnis and his fellow soldiers went down to investigate the bodies. The injured were brought to the infirmary, and the dead were looked over. Giánnis was looking at the body of the leader, and quickly got his superior officer to confirm his suspicions. After the body was brought to army Headquarters they confirmed something that would change the course of the war.
The dead man was Mustafa Efendi, leader of the Republic of Turkey.
