"We can't do this anymore, otherwise the people in Cairo will starve to death." Zheng's lion roar passed through the thick wooden door of the office and spread outside.

The naval officers and admirals waiting outside all looked at each other in confusion.

They have all experienced how powerful this lady is.

If the daughter of the Zheng family is not aggressive, then she is making a mistake.

"Pah...!" Then, everyone heard a crisp slap in the face.

Everyone looked at each other in shock, and no one dared to say a word. The corridor was eerily quiet, and everyone could hear their own heartbeats.

"Smelly old bitch, you know nothing.

Just for the sake of a little plan like sesame and mung beans, you fucking interfered with my affairs.

I'm telling you, if you interfere with military matters again, I will kill you right now!

Get lost! Go back to the backyard. If you dare to come to the front yard again, your legs will be discounted."

Immediately afterwards, everyone heard Li Xiu's lion-like roar.

The Middle East is in chaos, but the Marine Corps is vulnerable.

In many places, people even abandoned their equipment and ran away.

This has never happened before among the Liao army.

This matter cannot be blamed on Zuo Liangyu's head.

After all, it has only been more than seven months since he took over the Marine Corps, and three of those months were still in combat.

I thought that the Marine Corps with 350,000 troops would be a combatable force. But I didn’t expect it to look like this!

Li Xiu fell into deep self-blame!

For a long time, the Marine Corps has been scattered all over the country. Its deployment area is so wide that it has spanned the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean.

Because the locations are too scattered, it is natural that the local chief official has the final say.

There has been no war for a long time, and everyone has become slack.

The chief officer in charge can also rectify the military equipment and conduct training every day.

But many chief officials think that the world is peaceful. Training is so-so, and armaments are also so-so.

It has the meaning of putting swords and guns in storage and letting horses go to Nanshan.

It's fine now, it's all revealed.

Li Xiu, who fell into self-blame, hadn't slept for three days, staring with red eyes like an evil ghost.

If possible, he would kill all the traitors.

However, he doesn't have this ability now.

Especially in the Sinai Peninsula, in the morning he received a request for help from the local garrison. He dispatched a battalion!

But by noon, he had to send a regiment to relieve the camp.

At night, he had to send a division to pick out all the Ming people there.

The Arabs suddenly had a large number of weapons in their hands.

And they are all standard weapons, far from the original old-fashioned muskets.

Before this incident, the best weapon in the hands of the Arabs was the flintlock gun. Even many hunters were still using old and shabby matchlock guns.

The profiteers of the Ming Dynasty even purchased discarded matchlocks and firecrackers from the Ming Dynasty army and resold them to the Middle East for profit.

These things are enough for daily hunting!

Li Xiu felt that this kind of weapon was not enough to shake the rule of the Ming Dynasty, so the people did not ban guns like the Ming Dynasty.

Unexpectedly, so many standard weapons suddenly appeared.

Moreover, they seem to be out of ammunition.

What surprised Li Xiu the most was that the artillery was tinkered with from nowhere.

The mortars mixed among the Arabs were extremely accurate, even more accurate than their own Marines.

You know, the gunners under his command were all fed with cannonballs!

Mortars are definitely not something you can master once you get started.

Although the report from the naval intelligence department has not yet come, Li Xiu is almost certain that there are Hebrews among those Arabs.

Since this is the case, the source of this turmoil is almost ready to be revealed.

It's a pity that now I don't have the strength to stop the Hebrews' attack. I also don't have the ability to attack Sevastopol.

Now, he wants to put out all the Arab rebellions that are raging everywhere.

"Bang!" The heavy wooden door of the office was knocked open, and Ms. Zheng rushed out with disheveled hair.

Everyone automatically stood in two rows to make way for the lady.

Mrs. Zheng covered her face and left. No one in the corridor spoke.

"Everyone, get in here!" Li Xiu's roar came from inside.

The generals and officers walked into the office tremblingly. The commander was in a bad mood today, and no one wanted to shoot.

I didn’t see that even my wife was beaten just now!

"Intelligence Department, what do you do for food?

Such a large-scale rebellion, such a large-scale smuggling of weapons. You didn't realize that even Hebrew artillery has appeared in the Sinai Peninsula.

What's the point of raising you? It's better to raise a circle of big fat pigs and kill them for meat during the Chinese New Year.

Xiao Zhan, you are the head of the Intelligence Department. Tell me!"

Li Xiao pointed directly at Xiao Zhan, and his fingertips almost touched his nose.

"Uh...! Commander, it is indeed the Hebrews who are causing trouble this time.

Over the years, they have used small favors to bribe those Arabs.

They distributed clothes and food during floods, and they still distributed clothes and food during droughts.

We build roads everywhere, and we also specialize in building small roads that connect to the main roads we built.

So much so that when the local people saw us, they felt like they were enemies or the Hebrews, and they felt like they wanted to see their relatives.

What happened in Tunisia this time was caused by the Hebrews working together with the local tribal elders.

Also, those people we appointed were too greedy, making the people hate them.

What are you talking about, officials of the King of Tunisia? If you shoot them all, there will be unjust, false and wrong cases. If you shoot them one by one every other, there will definitely be fish that slip through the net."

"Okay! I don't want to listen to this. I want the enemy's troop deployment in the Sinai Peninsula. Also, to what extent did the Hebrews send troops." Li Xiu rudely interrupted Xiao Zhan's report.

"The Hebrews sent out troops, but only symbolically sent out artillery.

The firearms in the hands of the Arabs were provided by them, and the wars with the Austro-Hungarian Empire and Russia allowed them to capture a lot.

Although those are all old-fashioned rifles, they are better because of the large number of Arabs.

The gathering of so many people is enough to pose a huge threat to our army's defense line.

What's more, they also have Hebrew artillery to assist them."

"What a bastard Hebrew!" Li Xiu cursed.

Suddenly, Li Xiu seemed to have thought of something.

"The warships ordered by the Spaniards from us have not been delivered yet." Li Xiu suddenly thought that the Spaniards had also ordered two battleships from us.

Counting the days, it will be delivered within one or two months.

"It has been delivered to the Spanish Navy." Xiao Zhan whispered.

"Didn't you say next month?" Li Xiu's eyes widened.

"But the Spaniards said they believe in our Ming Dynasty's strength. The sea trials don't need to take so long, just let their people drive away.

Madam... Madam also approved the note."

"Damn it, am I the Navy Commander or she is the Navy Commander.

If any of you dare to accept a note from her in the future, don’t blame me, Li Xiu, for being rude."

"promise!"

"promise!"

"...!"

All the generals and officers were speechless!

It's all a matter between you two. How dare these little officers speak.

"Immediately block the Dardanelles Strait and the Bosporus Strait. These two battleships must not be allowed to enter the Black Sea."
