Chapter 34 The Poor Knight

While Chen Mo and his friends were sneaking into Cairo, British reinforcements also arrived in the suburbs of Cairo.

After being taught by Major Ron's infantry regiment last time, the British were very cautious this time. Although they were full of anger and felt that the dignity of the British Empire was insulted, they still first met with the tribal cavalry of the Pharaoh Guards, and after the two sides formed a solid camp, they began to prepare for the attack on Cairo.

In the central camp of the coalition camp, a British colonel came in person. Although he did not agree with the tribal cavalry of the Pharaoh Guard and the story of Imoton they told, tens of thousands of tribal cavalry were still a very huge force. In addition, an infantry regiment was crippled by unknown means, the colonel still knew that some things might be worse than he expected.

Therefore, the colonel still gave superficial respect to Adebe, the leader of the Pharaoh's Guard.

After the two sides exchanged intelligence, the colonel asked Adebe: "What do you think about the current situation in Cairo?"

"Our people have already sneaked into the city, and he will find a way to solve the problem in Cairo that is not a mortal." Before the British came, the director and Chen Mo both explained how Adebe should deal with them, so Adebe did not talk too much about Imoton, but told the British about the plan that Chen Mo had explained before: "We are responsible for launching an attack outside the city, leading the enemies in the city out, and creating opportunities for them."

The British Colonel did not think there was any problem with this plan. It was also a blessing for him to not deal with those inhuman things.

However, he asked Adber, "How do you make sure that the people in the city will be drawn out? What if they are just guarding? You are just cavalry and have no advantage in siege, right?"

Although the colonel also had the idea of ​​letting Adbe and others take the main attack as cannon fodder, he was not so stupid that he let the cavalry attack the city and wasted his chips in vain.

Although according to the strategy discussed by the top British military leaders, the tribal cavalry of Adebe and his tribes were to destroy the city's resistance and thus weaken the two, it did not mean that they were just wasting troops.

And in addition to this question, the colonel was also concerned about whether the people who sneaked into Cairo could solve the problem.

Although he disdained the so-called resurrection of the high priest three thousand years ago that he had heard before, as a senior officer of the Suez Canal garrison, the colonel knew some mysterious events that did happen on this land.

In fact, the UK has always been concerned about the mysterious events on the land of Egypt, and even sent professionals from the local area who specialize in handling and suppressing these events.

This time when we came to regain Cairo, the colonel also brought the professional over.

Adebe was not very clear about the British's thoughts, but he still answered the colonel's question: "The people in the city were influenced by the ancient Egyptian god Sehmet. She was the god of war in ancient Egyptian mythology and was known for her cruelty. Under the influence of her power, although the people in the city would not completely lose their minds, they would become bloodthirsty and warlike.

In addition, after being controlled, they became puppets, leaving only instinctive reactions, so it is not a big problem to lead them out of the city with a little use."

When Adebe answered the colonel's question, a veteran standing beside the colonel, who had no military rank sign on his body and was wearing a shabby military uniform suddenly asked, "Can you be sure that everyone in the city is controlled?"

Hearing the veteran speak, the colonel immediately took a break and showed great respect to the veteran. The other British officers on the side also had the same attitude.

The colonel's actions immediately surprised Adebe and O'Connor. He didn't understand who this veteran was and why he was so respected.

However, at this time O'Connor noticed that a garter strap was tied to the veteran's leg, and there seemed to be a line of words printed on it. This reminded him of something, so he asked, "Are you a Knight of Garder?"

"No, I'm just a veteran, a poor knight." The veteran shrugged indifferently, smiled at O'Connor, and then continued to ask seriously: "Can you tell me about the situation in Cairo? Although these children don't believe in myths and legends about ancient Egypt, I, the old guy, still want to hear it."

The veteran who claimed to be a poor knight in front of him was very kind. O'Connor looked at him and remembered his good friend Winston, so he also had a good impression of him, so he introduced the old knight about Imoton and explained to him that Chen Mo's speculation that Imoton was preparing a ceremony in Cairo to bring Sehmet to the world.

After listening to O'Connor's introduction, the veteran's face suddenly became serious. After asking O'Connor for some details, his whole face changed.

"Damn it, is the matter so serious?" The veteran hammered the table hard, took a deep breath, and said to the colonel beside him: "I am now exercising the exclusive power of Egyptian affairs given to me by the King of Great Britain and Ireland and the Emperor George V of India. Here we make the troops under the British Empire stationed in Egypt cooperate to resolve the Cairo crisis. During this period, anyone who intends to hinder or delay the resolution of the incident will be punished for delaying the fighter jet and treason!"

The veteran's words immediately made the British officers on the side look green.

Although they were really angry about the fact that an infantry regiment was traumatized before they could not even see the shadow of the enemy, and they really wanted to regain their face, this does not mean that they would want to work hard here, nor do they want to bet on their future and honors here.

You should know that what the veteran said was delaying the fighter plane and treason. This only means one thing for any soldier, that is, all honors will be defeated to the end, and they will go to the military court with great disreputation. Even their families will be implicated. This can be said to be a very shameful thing.

But it is obvious that the veterans have enough deterrence to these officers and are indeed able to order them.

Even with such a harsh order, several officers saluted the veteran and began to execute the military orders when their faces were almost wrinkled.

At the same time, the veteran grabbed O'Connor and asked him, "How did your people get into the city? I'm going in now, do you have a way?"
