Mobil Oilfield is about 350 kilometers away from Djerba Island. If Bulldog drives at full speed, it will only take about four hours to reach Mobil Oilfield.
After all, it is still a new car and needs a running-in period. The soldiers of United Oil still cherish it very much, so at the end of the day, the convoy of United Oil Company and the guard sent by the Prince of Basel are still a full 200 kilometers away from the Mobil Oil Field.
This is not because the bullfighter ran slowly, but because the Prince of Basel's guards were all Mamluks riding camels, and they couldn't go fast even if they wanted to.
At dusk, the troops camped at a place called Bazaar.
Bazaar was originally a small town with a population of about three to four thousand. Although it sounds small, in Tunisia, which is vast and sparsely populated, it can be regarded as a city.
Well, Tunisia is really not that vast, and its population is also weak.
The current Bazaar has been basically abandoned. It is still a bit close to Mobil Oilfield. Many people are afraid of the strength of the Brotherhood and choose to move away. Those who are left behind are the old, weak, sick and disabled.
The so-called relocation is probably not true. At least in Mustafa's view, quite a few people here should have defected to the Brotherhood rather than moving elsewhere. Mustafa was sent by the Prince of Basel.
The leader of the guard still carries the name of a prince, but he is just a side branch and has no practical significance.
These damn untouchables, I really don’t know how they live in this ghost place. They don’t even have water. Do they usually drink the northwest wind? Mustafa walked into Yue Liangcai’s tent and was still cursing.
Yue Liangcai is the top commander of the United Petroleum Company security force. Yue Liangcai was also a member of the Foreign Legion. He lost three fingers during the war. After retiring, he joined the Lanfang Foreign Legion and was then sent to Tunisia to become a member of the United Petroleum Security Force.
a senior military officer.
By the way, United Oil's security forces now number 12,000, of which 4,000 are in Libya, 3,600 in Algeria, and the rest are in Djerba.
The bulldogs used by Yue Liangcai's troops drank gasoline, but the camels ridden by Mustafa's soldiers required water. It seemed that Mustafa did not find enough water, so he was a little annoyed.
Don't be anxious, take your time, do you want a drink? Yue Liangcai comforted him casually, and raised the cup in his hand to signal to Mustafa.
Although he is away from home, as a senior officer, Yue Liangcai still has full privileges. For example, the tent Yue Liangcai is using now, although it does not occupy a large area, has everything he needs, and even has a set of tools.
Professional tea sets for making tea are not common in North Africa.
However, it was obvious that what Yue Liangcai was drinking now was not tea, but liquor, which was still a relatively high-alcohol liquor. Although he was still one or two meters away, Mustafa could still smell the smell of alcohol.
Hey, it's rude of you to do this. You should know our taboos. Mustafa's face changed immediately, and he didn't mean to be too fierce.
The situation is stronger than the people. Although this is North Africa, it is obvious that the power in Yue Liangcai's hands is much more tyrannical than Mustafa's. When Mustafa set off, the Prince of Basel also repeatedly told Mustafa to be careful and not to
These insane heretics were offended, so Mustafa chose a milder way to express his opinions.
This is not wine, but a traditional drink of our country. Well, it is similar to the milk tea in your country. You can smell it and it has the standard taste of soy sauce. Yue Liangcai stared and lied, his expression quite sincere.
Thank you, your taste is very special. Mustafa was surprised by Yue Liangcai's thick skin. He waved his hands repeatedly to express his gratitude, and then sat far away from Yue Liangcai.
We should arrive at the Mobil Oilfield tomorrow, right? Mustafa watched Yue Liangcai feasting on barbecue and wine. His throat was moving up and down unconsciously, and more and more saliva was drooling in his mouth.
It is undoubtedly a very happy thing to have a sumptuous dinner after a long journey. But if you go hungry and watch others enjoy a sumptuous dinner after a long journey, that is really the cruelest thing in the world.
Definitely. In fact, if it weren't for taking care of your camels, we would have arrived at the Mobil Oil Field today, and then we would have set off to return to the base tomorrow night. Yue Liangcai was so confident that he did not include the time needed to launch an attack on the Brotherhood.
Should we wait for the follow-up troops and wait until the troops are concentrated before launching an attack? Mustafa did not have the confidence of Yue Liangcai, and he was very worried.
According to the information Mustafa received, there are approximately more than 5,000 Alliance of Brothers soldiers gathered in Mobil Oilfield. This is a quite large force. Even if the troops led by Yue Liangcai have strong combat effectiveness, they must be careful to avoid
Capsized in the gutter.
What's more, Yue Liangcai doesn't have 1,000 men at all now. According to Mustafa's visual inspection, Yue Liangcai only has more than 500 people here at most, which is quite different from the number of Brother Alliance soldiers in the intelligence. Mustafa is true.
Not much confidence.
No, why should we give them the credit? We will launch the attack directly, and let them clean the battlefield when the follow-up troops catch up. Yue Liangcai is confident, and his intention to grab the credit is obvious.
Before setting off, Yue Liangcai knew that there would be no follow-up troops at all, and all the manpower was here. Chris did not want the troops to drive cars for training. Although United Oil had a lot of gasoline, it could not be wasted.
Come on, come on, come on, try this. This is our chef's specialty, and most people don't have the luxury to enjoy it. A guard served Mustafa a barbecue, and Yue Liangcai was very enthusiastic.
Thank you, thank you very much. Mustafa did not refuse. To be honest, Mustafa has been hungry for a long time.
How could there be meat without wine? Yue Liangcai poured a glass of wine and placed it next to Mustafa. He did not say anything to give in and continued to feast.
Yeah, yeah, this tastes very good. Mustafa enjoyed eating it.
United Oil has a lot of money, and Lanfang is a place that produces spices, so the food of United Oil is quite good. Take the barbecue in front of Mustafa as an example.
Just three types of oil are used, and seasonings such as chili, cumin, aniseed, peppercorns, fennel, peanuts, sesame, etc. are also used, which is much more complicated than the local recipe in Tunisia.
Of course, if it were the 21st century, many people might think that only by sprinkling a little salt can you eat the authentic food. But in the early 20th century, it is right to never tire of fine food and fine food. Just sprinkle a little salt.
It is the most vulgar way to eat, and people with a little status will look down upon it.
Mustafa also has the hidden attribute of a prince, and he is also very particular about eating. When it comes to eating, no one in the world is more particular than the Chinese, so it is conceivable that Mustafa is very particular about the barbecue in front of him.
I love it so much that I even eat it with my own tongue.
You don’t have to worry about combat. We are the experts in this area. You can just watch and see how we teach those brothers in the alliance. To be honest, I know the two Yiprasins in the brother alliance. Then
The guys who were originally eliminated by our security force unexpectedly became famous now. I will let them understand that there is a reason why they were not qualified to join the joint oil security force. Yue Liangcai reassured Mustafa while eating.
Mustafa nodded repeatedly.
The combat effectiveness of the United Oil Company's security forces is second to none among the three North African countries. Even the Governor's Palace Guards sent by the French government to North Africa are lagging behind the United Oil Company's security forces. Even the Governor himself admits this.
Mustafa was even more unimpressed.
Hearing Yue Liangcai's vows, Mustafa also let go of his heart. The key is that Yue Liangcai's words that you don't need to participate in the war are the real reassurance for Mustafa.
Before coming, to be honest, Mustafa was really worried. According to the conditions agreed by Prince Basel and Chris, people like Mustafa were under the jurisdiction of Yue Liangcai. So if during the battle, Yue Liangcai asked
Mustafa's men assumed part of the combat mission, but Mustafa did not have enough reasons to refuse.
And if the relationship between United Oil and the Brotherhood is really as close as the legend says, then Yue Liangcai may really use this opportunity to trick Mustafa to death. The key is that Mustafa is still unable to resist, so now he has Yue Liangcai’s
Commitment, you can imagine Mustafa's ease.
Yes, the two Iprahims of the Brotherhood are heretics, and they should be stoned to death so that they will never be reincarnated. Mustafa is vicious.
When it comes to execution methods in North Africa, there is really not much creativity. They are either stoned to death, beheaded directly, or burned to death. It is really simple and crude without any artistry. Look at the Eastern methods of execution.
Paolao, Lingchi, Dapi, etc., etc., are really diverse and have risen to a certain level of art.
Uh-huh, salute my lord. Yue Liangcai suddenly raised his glass and shouted, then raised his head and drank it all.
Salute to our Lord, Mustafa also raised his cup in response, and then he also raised his head and drank it cleanly.
It’s just that this is white wine, and it’s high-quality white wine.
Mustafa's face immediately turned as red as a monkey's butt, and he didn't know whether it was due to his sensitive constitution or embarrassment.
It was just a drink, but Yue Liangcai still looked honest.
That's right, it's just a drink. The taste is very special. Well, it's very special. Mustafa grinned a little, as if he felt a little spicy just now.
