After receiving the order from Qin Zhiyuan, Yang Deshan summoned Yang Dehai Rommel to discuss how to implement the plan to go north.
It is impossible to move there as a whole. The Brotherhood Alliance already has a certain mass base in Tunisia and Lyabi. This is a situation that has been formed after long-term efforts. It would be a pity to abandon them all now.
However, Qin Zhiyuan's orders must also be implemented, and the interests of the small group must be subordinated to the large group at all times. Yang Deshan has this awareness.
What does the second step plan mean? Rommel was a little curious when he first heard about it.
Rommel is one of our own now, and there is no need to keep it secret from him. Yang Deshan explained the content of the second step of the plan to Rommel. After hearing this, Rommel looked a little excited: That means we are going to march to the Middle East now, where there are many
important
Yang Deshan only explained the necessity of marching into the Middle East. As for the deeper purpose, Yang Deshan did not know.
In the current Middle East, rich oil and gas resources have not yet been discovered. The entire Middle East gives people the impression of a deserted desert. Therefore, neither the British nor the French have much interest in the Middle East. The British even regard the Middle East as Europe.
They want to dump the Jews who are not welcome in Europe collectively into the Middle East and let them fend for themselves.
Rommel was not a Nazi. Although he had no favorable impression of the Jews, he could not say he disliked them. Therefore, Rommel himself had no opinion on the British's actions, but he was still confused by Qin Zhiyuan's strategy.
Being able to rise from the tactical level to the strategic level, Rommel had already begun his evolution from general to commander-in-chief.
It is very important and directly related to our future. Yang Deshan still doesn’t know what is underground in the Middle East. From a strategic sense alone, the Middle East is the link connecting Lanfang and Europe, which is enough.
Then do it. Rommel is a good soldier, he does not ask questions and resolutely carries out his mission.
Regarding this point, the confidentiality requirements are very clear. Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, and don't listen to what you shouldn't listen to.
This time I will go over, the second child will be responsible for guarding the house, and the fourth child will be ready. Your people will provide support to me and Jackson at any time. Yang Deshan is ready to go into battle himself.
Yang Dehai did not express any objection to Yang Deshan's arrangement.
In view of the current status of the Brotherhood, Yang Deshan's arrangement is the most reasonable. He really wants to go to the Middle East, and North Africa cannot be given up. Although Rommel is capable enough, his qualifications are still not enough after all, and the armored forces cannot be dispatched easily, so Yang Dehai is best left behind.
Candidate.
The Iraqi side was still relatively complicated, and there were no specific strategies, but Rommel showed a certain degree of concern.
It's okay, the people are indeed a bit mixed, and they are all Persians after all. As long as we can mobilize the people at the bottom and follow the path of surrounding the cities from the countryside, Iraq will be the next Lyabi. Yang Deshan is confident.
Mobilizing the masses from rural areas to encircle cities is a new vocabulary invented by Qin Zhiyuan. The Brotherhood Alliance has always been developing according to this idea. In Liabi, these two methods played a big role in the expansion of the Brotherhood Alliance.
The British ruled the colonies by fostering agents. The specific method was to find agents with enough prestige and then control the colonies through the agents. The method of the Brotherhood Alliance was completely opposite. In the areas ruled by the Brotherhood Alliance, basically
There is no agent, and the real authority is the church elders. The church rules the local area instead of the administrative agency, and the church elders achieve the purpose of ruling by controlling the people's beliefs.
Compared with the British method, the Brotherhood's control over local areas is more thorough. After all, the most important thing to control a certain area is the people. As long as the people's beliefs are controlled, everything else is as light as a feather.
Although Yang Dehai was reluctant to leave when he left, he also understood that he had a great responsibility. Yang Dehai could not live in Yang Deshan's shadow forever. People always have to grow up.
Tomorrow, Yang Deshan simply decided to go to Iraq.
Hanasol.
The original camp no longer exists, and the bodies of those who were killed or burned have been buried. There are only large areas of charred black in the camp, reminding Karim that countless good brothers are buried here.
The British are preparing to abandon this camp, and the site of the new camp has been selected, just five kilometers north of Hanasol, which is closer to the Syrian border.
Karim came to say goodbye to his brothers. The dead are like the living. Karim buried his hatred in his heart and prepared to use his own way to get back from the Syrians and the French.
Let's go, Karim. Someone is calling Karim in the distance. It's Karim's new friend Mai Jide.
Brothers, wait for me. When I avenge you, I will go find you. After Karim said his last prayer, he stood up and walked towards Maijide without looking back.
On the way to the new camp, Mai Jide is full of longing for tomorrow's life: I heard that there will be troops stationed at the new camp, so there is no need to worry about safety. We will live in a new tent, six people each, and new clothes.
It's good to eat, at least you don't have to eat those pig food anymore
Karim didn't want to talk as he listened to Mai Jide's ramblings. There were troops stationed in the original camp, but they were vulnerable to the attack of those devil knights from hell. Those good brothers who were once good brothers couldn't even eat pig food.
We now get ten shillings for a day's work, which is much higher than the original salary. If I can work for half a year, I can go home and build a house and marry a wife. Mai Jide is still optimistic about the future.
It was planned, but it was a pity that Karim was not interested in this.
First of all, you have to survive until that day. Karim’s voice was very low, so low that he couldn’t hear clearly.
You said that the wind in the desert is still a bit strong, but Mai Jide didn't hear clearly what Karim said.
I said, you should make yourself stronger. Karim was a little worried about Mai Jide's small body.
The work in the oil field is still quite arduous, which is a bit overwhelming even for Karim's burly figure, not to mention Mai Jide's small body. Mai Jide is estimated to be only about 1.6 meters tall and does not even weigh 50 kilograms.
The feet on the sand were like a splash of water, which is certainly not a complimentary description.
I also want to be strong, but you don’t know that I have eleven brothers and sisters, and now there are only four left, so even though Hanasol is not safe, I am still here. Mai Jide’s expression cannot be said to be so good.
Sad, this is how it is in this era. Mai Jide's family situation is very normal and people have become accustomed to it.
Poverty is a common feature of all Iraqis in this era. Oil has not yet been discovered in Iraq, and food cannot be grown in the desert. Even if the nomads want to graze, they always need pasture, but in the desert, pasture is a luxury.
The distance of five kilometers was not too far. Karim and Maijid talked all the time and arrived at the new camp in a short time.
The raid a month ago reminded the British that the walls of the new camp no longer used wooden piles, but permanent buildings with masonry structures. These building materials were sent by the British from the British mainland.
The road was long and difficult, and the British had spent a lot of money on it.
It's a pity that if an economist were here, he would definitely criticize the British approach. The British went to great lengths to transport building materials to Iraq. It is estimated that the transportation price has already exceeded the actual price of these building materials. From the British mainland to
Sending it here is far less cost-effective than directly building a factory in Iraq.
There is a reason for the British to do this. The reason why the British are doing this is to curb the development of Iraq. In the British view, it is best for Iraq not to have any industrial capacity. The Iraqis only need to produce the oil that the British need.
The British will provide all other necessities needed for life.
Well, that was the British way of ruling the colonies, and it had nothing to do with cost.
The construction of the new camp is progressing very quickly. The wall has now been erected. There is a bunker stationed by British soldiers outside the wall. The black hole of the gun muzzle and the piles of ammunition boxes have given the workers a lot of confidence. Because of this, the British can
Iraq found enough workers as quickly as possible.
When entering the new camp, you must first register your identity. When it was Karim's turn, as soon as Karim reported his name, the officer in charge of the registration looked surprised: Abdul Karim, lucky Karim
Lucky Karim, this is the nickname Karim got after the night of the raid. In the entire camp, of nearly a thousand people, only Karim survived. This is really lucky.
Yes. Karim didn't say much, the sadness in his eyes was rich.
Don't be sad, those people will be punished by God eventually. The British offered comfort very considerately. Although it was of no use, Karim still managed to persuade him: We are going to set up a guard composed of Iraqis to take charge of the camp.
For security work and elimination of certain hidden dangers, Guard members do not have to work in the oil fields. We will provide weapons and training. Guard members are paid thirty shillings a day.
Karim didn't hear what the British man said at all. There was only one thought in his mind: Guards
Isn't that right? The British are not easily subdued, and the majesty of the world's leader cannot be offended. If someone dares to infringe on the interests of the British Empire, it is very simple, just make him pay a price that he cannot bear.
So when the British asked if he was interested, Karim nodded without hesitation.
Yes, I am very interested, and I have military experience. In the army, I was a captain of a cavalry battalion. In order to prove his worth, Karim took the initiative to reveal the experience that he never wanted to mention.
The captain was so kind that the British immediately recorded Karim's name in another book. This book was densely packed with names. Look at the thickness of the book.
