Chapter 11 The British Tradition

Compared with the smooth arrival of the Germans and Soviets, the journey of the British, French and Americans was not so smooth.

Both the French and the Americans spent a lot of money to open the road and hired guides, so both teams arrived in Lower Egypt by train and followed the route that Chen Mo took to the Amhay Oasis.

However, it was obvious that the French and Americans had some "friendly" exchanges on the road, and they had an in-depth exchange, using hot bullets to make the other party feel their "enthusiasm."

The French and Americans fought lively, and the British later joined in the fight.

They came by warship obviously with more manpower and equipment, and the British were very unceremonious and planned to eat up all the people from other countries.

Therefore, when the French and Americans were having a lively fight, the British showed their traditional European style of stirring up trouble and showed no moral integrity behind the scenes, which caused the French and Americans to suffer a big loss.

If the Americans hadn't realized that something was wrong, stopped "communication" with the French, and turned their guns to attack the British, the French would not have fought against two at this time, but would have fought with the Americans against the British sneak attack.

I'm afraid there's a question mark as to whether students from these two countries can successfully arrive at the assessment site.

Although the French and Americans repelled the British sneak attack, their own losses were quite heavy. The two teams had to temporarily form an alliance to fight against the British threat. Only then did the last group arrive at Chen Mo's location.

little oasis.

At this time, the British had already obtained the third spot, and even set up a camp. They were using various materials they brought to assist their three students in preparing for the examination.

Although the industrial strength of the United States has far surpassed that of the United Kingdom in this era, the most recognized power in the world at this time is still the British Empire.

In addition, the United Kingdom has not yet transformed into the Commonwealth at this time, and the United Kingdom, which controls the largest territory in the world, still cannot be underestimated in terms of strength.

This can be seen from the various equipment and materials they brought, and what kind of strength and heritage the world's first superpower has.

At least one battalion of regular troops and accompanying servants and civilians, as well as various supporting horses, supplies and equipment...

When these materials were taken to the British side by the small oasis, they even built a complete camp and invited Chen Mo to have afternoon tea. Chen Mo had to admit that the British were indeed much better than other countries in some aspects.

.

Of course, in terms of decadence and decadence, the British are also worse than other countries.

After all, even during this period, officers in the armies of various countries still retained various bad habits from the First World War, such as orderlies, afternoon tea, cocktail parties, etc. However, after the modern military reforms in various countries, some of them have been eliminated to some extent.

Bad habits of modern armies during wartime.

However, this is not the case in Great Britain. Most of their middle- and upper-level officers are still nobles, and they retain a series of old habits such as bringing servants, drinking afternoon tea, and playing bridge.

For example, the salary regulations for officers in the British Navy even include such outrageous things as alcohol subsidies, while the treatment of ordinary sailors...

It is true that if I had the choice, I would not take a job as a sailor, which is worse than an ox or a horse.

You must know that on a warship, it is possible to fit at least six people's bunks into two cubic spaces, and it is not impossible for even eight people. You will know that these sailors are living a life that is worse than a pig or a dog.

However, the British Empire itself had no intention of changing these old habits.

After all, the British Empire is still the most powerful country in the world at this time, and its military strength is also the best in the world. Although it has fallen from the two-power principle to the one-power principle, it still has strength and foundation.

Even if even naval officers sympathize with the treatment of sailors, the British Empire has always been immoral in this regard.

But this has nothing to do with Chen Mo. He doesn't mind sitting cleanly and decently at the mahogany tea table brought by the British next to the oasis in the desert, drinking black tea, eating snacks, and then looking at the French and

The Americans came in with disheveled hair and faces stained with sand and blood.

Obviously, first they had a fight with each other, and then they were stabbed in the eyes by the British. Even if the French and Americans formed an alliance, it would be difficult to make up for their losses.

Moreover, Chen Mo could also sense that before they arrived at the oasis, they were attacked again by a force left by the British.

It is true that the British only brought one battalion of troops, but they still maintained some garrisons and military bases in Lower Egypt, the former Sudan area. The British army that attacked the French and Americans was transferred from nearby.

Regarding this behavior of the British, Chen Mo just raised his eyebrows and said nothing more.

He would only applaud when countries stab each other with knives, and would not have any sympathy for them.

And he also doesn't have any extra affection for the British. If the person being stabbed was a British person, he would happily watch the British people's excitement, just like he now watches the French and Americans' excitement.

After all, to him, these guys are not good birds.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Chen Mo still pretended to comfort the French and Americans, and then told them the content of the assessment and asked them to prepare quickly.

The Soviets and George Blake were the first to arrive. It took them about half a day to arrive, about a day and a half ahead of the Germans, while the British were about a day and a half later than the Germans because of their sneak attacks on the French and Americans.

one day.

The French and Americans are still about two days behind the British, so the time left for the latest French and Americans is quite little. The only remaining day is the week specified by Chen Mo.

Deadline.

This undoubtedly makes the French and Americans look very ugly. It is undoubtedly almost impossible to catch up with the leading group in one day.

But the French and Americans obviously would not give up. After some discussion, they had to give up the idea of ​​fighting independently and brought together four students from the two countries, intending to pool all the resources of the four students from the two countries.

Come and give it a try, at least bring down the British and avenge the previous sneak attack.

Moreover, the French and Americans also agreed with each other that if it is really impossible for four people to pass the customs together, then they will do their best to protect the one who is most likely to pass the customs. After that, the magic data and research results obtained will be shared between the two countries.

I have to say that the people sent by France and the United States to take charge of this matter were very decisive. By forming an alliance, they could barely offset some of their own disadvantages, and they would not be too far behind the other countries.

In such a tense atmosphere, the sun finally set on the last day.
