Horton's departure caused a huge shock not only in the Republic of Rus, but also in the entire Central and East African regions. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

This noble son has been rooted in Africa for nearly ten years, and his 'great achievements' are naturally countless.

Especially in East Africa, where he has been in the country for the longest time, his departure has made many people feel like pins and needles and unfathomable.

On the side of Russ City, the British soldiers also had a certain amount of confusion, after all, as Horton's soldiers, they were inseparable from Horton's involvement to a large extent.

However, the British did not immediately withdraw their troops from Russ, and they did not want to affect the overall interests of the British Empire in Africa because of the Horton scandal.

In the underground fortifications, Zhou Quanbei looked at the documents in his hand with great interest.

In addition to the media coverage of the Horton incident around the world, there is also the latest information from the Public Relations Department of Weir Corporation and the Titan Valley Intelligence Department.

Maybe he has been in the underground for a long time, Zhou Quanbei's complexion looks a little pale, but his mental head is excellent, and his eagle eyes are still sharp and extraordinary.

On the side, Wang Lun shook his head and sighed, "Brother, I feel that you are really in a hurry about this matter." I'm not saying that we can't get rid of Horton, it's just that we can get Horton down now, and the British still haven't withdrawn. We, the Titan Valley, are still at war. This has a great impact on our business. ”

Wang Lun's face was full of chagrin, he wanted to reprimand Zhou Quanbei, but he didn't have the guts, and he couldn't do it, he just wanted to vent his dissatisfaction.

Zhou Quanbei smiled faintly, "Brother Wang, we may not lose money in this matter." ”

Having known Wang Lun for so long, Zhou Quanbei also deeply understands Wang Lun's temperament, although he has been the mayor of the Titan Valley for nearly a year now, but because of the pattern problem, he still easily sees himself as a businessman rather than a seasoned politician in the way he thinks about problems.

"Dude, what does this mean? Is it ......?"

Zhou Quanbei smiled and patiently explained: "Brother Wang, the current situation in Central Africa is not too favorable for us. Even if our products can continue to sell well, how long can this state be maintained? Now, it looks like we're going to have to suffer a loss, but in my opinion, it's totally worth it compared to the rewards we received later. ”

Wang Lun somewhat understood what Zhou Quanbei meant, "Brother, is it difficult, are you taking a fancy to those minerals in the Republic of Rus?" I can't. That's all hot gold. ”

Zhou Quanbei smiled and lit a cigarette, and said a little domineeringly: "Brother Wang, a few mines, you want to send us away?" This price is inevitably a bit too cheap, right? ”

Wang Lun looked at Zhou Quanbei with some puzzlement.

Zhou Quanbei smiled and pointed to the map on the wall, "Brother Wang, what do you think of this land?" ”

Wang Lun looked in the direction of Zhou Quanbei's finger and couldn't help but be stunned, "Pa, Palmas?" Dude, are you crazy? This is East Africa's territory. It was also the root cause of the previous conflict. We've messed up enough on our side, and if we want to get mixed up in East Africa, it's ......."

Zhou Quanbei smiled faintly, "Brother Wang, I didn't say that I wanted to take the entire Palmas region. Even if I wanted to, I'm afraid, no one would want to. I'm talking about this. ”

Zhou Quanbei's finger pressed a little on the map.

Wang Lun was stunned, and instantly reacted, "Sapphire Town? ”

Zhou Quanbei smiled and nodded.

Wang Lun's brows furrowed tightly, "Brother, as far as I know, Sapphire Town did produce a lot of gems in the past, but that was more than a hundred years ago. Now, the resources of Sapphire Town have long been exhausted, and the indigenous people there have begun to migrate to other places, and they are about to become a dead city. We wasted such a big price and went for this

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) abandoned places ......"

"Brother Wang, not only Sapphire Town, maybe, we can also obtain this water." Zhou Quanbei's big hand slashed to the right.

Wang Lun's eyes couldn't help but widen, and after a moment, he suddenly laughed, "Brother." I'm convinced. The ancestors said that the front goes three, and the back goes four. How many steps have you taken backwards? ”

Zhou Quanbei smiled, "Brother Wang, this is someone's territory after all. If we want to mix here, and we have to mix better than others, then we can't be careless. ”

Sapphire Town, although close to the west shore of the Great Lake, is located on a peninsula that extends from the east shore, only 150 kilometers away from the Titan Valley, and less than 80 kilometers away from the town of Boultan, which is determined to be won in the north of Zhouquan.

In its early years, Sapphire was a jewel on the shores of the Great Lake, where the abundance of sapphires brought endless huge benefits to the early colonists. Sapphire Town was named after this.

But after so many years, the resources have long been depleted, coupled with the congenital conditions, the indigenous people of Sapphire Town can no longer continue to live, except for a very small number of fishermen who make a living from fishing, most of them have chosen to leave and find another way to make a living.

Especially a massacre a few years ago, Sapphire Town was greatly damaged, and now it has almost become a dead city.

But Zhou Quanbei knew that this seemingly de facto place of death would soon regain her superhuman vitality in the near future, and become the most important garrison of the British army in East Africa.

Not only is she in an excellent location, but there is also a huge sapphire mine hidden at the bottom of the lake not far away.

The most important thing is that Sapphire Town is like a fulcrum, gathering several major clans and more than a dozen forces in Central and East Africa.

If Zhou Quanbei can control Sapphire Town, not only can he pocket this vast body of water, and connect it with Titan Valley and Bourtan Town, but most importantly, he can also successfully open up the trade route to East Africa, and no longer have to look at the faces of the two 'giants' of Ethiopia and Kenya.

Moreover, the influence of the Titan Valley can be most effectively promoted to the East African region.

It may seem like a small step, but it will be a qualitative leap in both political and economic terms.

But at this time, although Sapphire Town has been abandoned, it is still in the area under the control of the British army, and if they don't break a few teeth of the British army, how can they spit out this piece of fat?

Zhou Quanbei and Wang Lun glanced at each other, each understood the other's intentions, and the atmosphere was suddenly much more relaxed.

Wang Lun said: "Brother, I will fully support you in this matter." It's just that the London side ...... We can't afford to be careless. ”

Zhou Quanbei smiled, "It's going to rain, and my mother wants to get married." Sooner or later, it will come. Brother Wang, let's do our best first. When the time comes, opportunities will always come. Now. Brother Wang, there is really one thing that needs you to add a fire......"

*********

At this time, the London side, because of the problem of Horton's replacement, has been hyped.

The Labor Party, because of great pressure, has directly abandoned Horton, and the Conservative Party, although it is also dissatisfied with Horton, but because of Horton's political leanings, it does not want to smash Horton too much, not to mention that Horton himself has aristocratic blood.

In fact, the private affairs of the aristocracy have always been a topic of conversation among the common people.

Sometimes, instead of creating obstacles, this thing can be a symbol of 'proximity'.

It's just that Horton is really unlucky this time, not only desecrating the sanctity of the army, but also ...... with the black girl This made the people very dissatisfied with him and had a very bad impression.

But East Africa, which has always been the Conservative Party's territory, has erupted into a fierce conflict over Horton's successor.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) and although the Labour Party is the ruling ~ political ~ party at this time, because of many aspects, it cannot but consider the interests of the Conservative Party, the largest anti-~ party~ party.

The opinion of the Labour Party and the Prime Minister is that they want to send a stable general to quell the current turmoil in East and Central Africa as soon as possible, and to protect the interests of the British Empire to the greatest extent.

However, the Conservative Party put forward a more radical candidate, they believe that the Titan Valley in the north of Zhou Quanbei has seriously affected the authority of the British Empire, seriously affected the interests of the British Empire in Africa, and must be subject to the most severe sanctions.

The Labour Party, on the other hand, did not want the situation to continue to escalate, and the two sides were at loggerheads.

In desperation, the issue could only be locked up in the cabinet, closed doors, and carefully discussed.

A few hours later, Mr. Prime Minister held a press conference to announce the replacement of General Houghton, and although his face was full of relaxed smiles, everyone heard the name of his successor, and it was instantly understood that the Prime Minister must have made some concessions in this matter.

Because, the newly appointed General Joseph, is the nomination of the Conservative Party.

********

Underground fortifications, Zhou Quanbei in the shortest possible time, already knew the successor of General Houghton.

Wang Lun couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Brother, why are you suffering?" Bring this war~fight~dealer~, to our side? We've paid such a big price for this. ”

Zhou Quanbei smiled, "Brother Wang, I can't bear the child, I can't trap the wolf." I've admired the famous General Joseph for a long time. ”

Looking at Zhou Quanbei's confident expression, Wang Lun could only smile bitterly, "Brother, I know you're ready." But this Joseph is not easy to mess with. Be careful in everything. ”

Zhou Quanbei smiled and patted Wang Lun's shoulder, "Brother Wang, with you stabilizing my body, what else do I have to be afraid of?" This is Russ City, not the Falklands, and Joseph wants to repeat his game, but it won't work. ”

*******

A day later, the famous Major General Joseph, the second lieutenant platoon commander and famous combat hero in the Falklands War, had arrived at the British garrison in Russ City.

Unlike the sleek, cunning Horton, Joseph has a fiery temper and is known as the 'Iron Fist General'.

Less than a day after he took office, Zhou Quanbei received his ultimatum.

The ultimatum demanded that the Titan Valley army immediately withdraw from the Russ City area and double the compensation for the losses caused by the conflict, while Zhou Quanbei himself must sincerely admit his mistake and accept the trial of the British Imperial Court.

"Who does he think he thinks he is? What a thing? Dare to make a big deal out of it here? Lao Tzu had to screw his head off and use it as a night pot. After hearing this, the lynx started scolding, he really couldn't imagine that he could be so arrogant.

Liu Di's face was also quite unhappy, he had always been steady, and his words brought a little anger, "Boss, since they want to fight, then let's continue." I'd like to see if he has what he can say. ”

Zhang Xiaojun also said: "Fuck it." If you don't make this dog's day, this white-haired baboon just doesn't know how to remember. ”

Seeing that all the officers expressed their positions one after another, Zhou Quanbei couldn't help but show a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

Although Horton is not good, there is no doubt that he has helped Zhou Quanbei. It was precisely because of his ink that the officers and soldiers under Zhou Quanbei gradually eliminated their fear of the noble British army.

At this time, since Joseph was in such a hurry to show himself, Zhou Quanbei of course wanted to fulfill him.
