Of course, Umbrella's mercenaries are not very high in military literacy. Whether in movies or games, they basically act as a background board or give the protagonist experience.

But in terms of individual combat capabilities, Umbrella's mercenaries are still fine.

It is definitely not possible to let them command the battle, but there is no problem using them to train the army.

In terms of military weapons, although Ambredar is not a specialist in military weapons, and the military equipment in the base Chen Mo obtained is not the most advanced among the military ordnances of the same era, in this era, it is completely a crushing result of the technological generation gap.

Although the production line in the base controlled by Chen Mo was not large in scale and could only produce some arms on a small scale, supporting a light-intensity small-scale war at most, there is also a high-precision machining workshop in the base, which Chen Mo could use to produce new lathes and production equipment and build new arsenals to produce military equipment on a large scale.

Of course, this also requires a certain industrial foundation before it can be done. With Egypt's current industrial strength, it is not enough to support a large arsenal, and everything can only be built first.

As for what the British said about providing ordnance and military instructors to help Chen Mo train a modern army, Chen Mo believed that the British must be sincere in this matter, and would indeed train him to meet the requirements.

But if a country's military and national defense construction is in the hands of outsiders, is this army its own army or other people's army?

Especially if you even rely on other people’s supplies for your arms. What should you do if someone stucks your neck during a war?

Not to mention that Chen Mo still hopes to reclaim the Suez Canal after his military strength is strong enough. If the army is trained by the British and the ordnances are provided by the British, Chen Mo will also reclaim the canal management rights of a hammer!

For Chen Mo, he needed to minimize the influence of the British on Egypt as much as possible. After all, Britain had been controlling Egypt for decades before. If Britain had not suffered too much loss in World War I, it would have to give up part of its rights in Egypt to ensure control of the Suez Canal, Egypt may now be part of the British Empire.

The British Empire has gradually recovered from the loss of World War I through blood transfusions from a huge colony. Although its glory is not there, it is still a world-class old power.

In other words, the United States, an emerging economic powerhouse, can challenge the UK's position, and other countries do not have the ability to challenge the UK's world hegemony.

As for the reclaiming of the management and control of the Suez Canal in the future, it is necessary to wait until after World War II, Britain completely declined and itself developed again, which is the most appropriate time.

Before this, all he had to do was to temporarily lie with the British, and at the same time, through the previous DuPont family, Mr. Burns and the DuPont family, to win over the Americans as support, in order to develop Egypt's economy and military and prepare for the upcoming World War II.

Although Chen Mo crossed the world, the development of history is inevitable. The Germans will not give up taking back what they lost in World War I just because of Chen Mo's influence on this world.

Or when World War I ended and Britain and France chose to divide the world at the Paris Peace Conference, the hidden dangers of World War II had already been laid.

For Chen Mo, he did not have the idea of ​​eliminating the war for this world. All he thought about was to accumulate his strength as much as possible while the war had not yet started. After the war broke out, he could have enough strength to invest in the largest war in human history and plunder enough benefits for himself.

Not to mention anything else, at least after the war is over, it is always necessary to ensure that one has the identity of a victorious country and establish one's influence on the surrounding areas. Becoming a regional overlord, and even the sixth position in the future is not out of reach.

As a time traveler and future person, one of the biggest benefits is that you know the direction of history and future development, so as to avoid many detours.

After the incident in Cairo was over, Mr. Burns and two friends entrusted the British relationship and got a ticket to the United States.

Before they left, Chen Mo gave them some gold and silver vessels from the underground of Hamnata, which made them not return empty-handed.

After accepting the gifts Chen Mo gave them, Burns and the other two promised very much that after returning to the United States, they would contact the DuPont family and ask them to send someone to discuss cooperation with Chen Mo.

Burns agreed so that after he returned to the United States, he did contact the DuPont family's power through his mother's relationship, and told the DuPont family's current powerhouse about Chen Mo's search for cooperation.

The DuPont family is naturally very interested in what Burns said.

The United States is now in its most prosperous golden age. The DuPont family's industries are expanding like balloons. At this time, they are worried about not finding a place to invest, so how could they refuse an opportunity to cooperate?

What's more, it was an olive branch from the emerging powers of a country, which is also an opportunity that is worthy of attention for the DuPont family.

After all, the United States is not the world overlord, and DuPont is not the big trust that can hire people to fly on earth planes at any time. The opportunity to expand its business to Egypt is that the DuPont family cannot give up.

For this matter, Burns's mother's cousin, one of the current powerhouses of the DuPont family, was personally rushed to Egypt from the United States and hoped to have an interview with Chen Mo in person.

This is an opportunity to cooperate with a country, especially since the country has just changed its ruler.

Because of Burns' recommendation, Pierre was summoned by Chen Mo soon.

Although Chen Mo has not given himself a title like a king or president, as the actual ruler of Egypt, there is still a pomp.

In the original palace built by the Egyptian royal family, Chen Mo met with the DuPont family.

Facing the DuPont family's ruler, Chen Mo did not make too much courtesy with him. After just a few greetings, he asked straight to the point: "I want to build a large petrochemical factory, a large arsenal and a large shipyard in Egypt. I wonder if the DuPont family can provide support and help? Or should I directly look for the US government?"
