Algiers was in chaos, Italy and France continued to fight, and this matter became known to all European countries, not to mention that Italy also stabbed the League of Nations with a rod, which caused even more chaos.

Not many people supported France this time, because France was notoriously domineering after World War I, and the Ruhr crisis was an example, so after Italy took out the movie "I Accuse", the German media was the first to believe it, and followed the coaxing, hoping to take revenge; Belgium also did not support France, because Belgium believed that Italy was on its side, so why force Germany to go to the side? Other small and medium-sized countries also think that the French are lying, and forgive the United Group, which is only one company, what is the ability to stand up to France? Besides, the vicious incidents that are currently occurring in Algiers are not always caused by the United Group, right? That's all Algerians rebelling, you have shit under your French ass, don't say that other people's mouths are not clean.

The official voice in Britain was surprisingly silent at first, as Baldwin and Chamberlain received credible information that the United Group was behind the scenes, which made them somewhat jealous. But then again, things have developed to the point where they can no longer be measured only in terms of right and wrong - children only talk about right and wrong, adults only talk about pros and cons, and Baldwin and Chamberlain have to decide whether it is better to support France or step on France, or not to take a stand.

Failure to take a position was first ruled out, and how could Great Britain, as the world leader, the self-appointed, not take a position on such a major matter? Wouldn't that tarnish the role and value of the League of Nations, after all, the League of Nations was run by Britain and France, and if even someone complains, and it is Italy, a permanent member of the League of Nations, is it not intended to continue to maintain the signboard? So it's not okay not to take a stand.

"Nivelle, has the matter of Algiers been clarified?" Prime Minister Baldwin asked.

"It hasn't been thoroughly investigated, but there are a few pieces of information that are conclusive, first, France has bought the Algerians, and little Ziano has also bought them; Second, the weapons currently used in Algiers have a clear Munich style, and it is said that a new gadget has been developed......" Chamberlain shrugged, "This new gadget is called the Briand vest, which can carry out suicide attacks, and the assault truck is the same idea, but it is more concealed and more terrifying, because even women and old people can do it, and the French authorities have a headache for this, and their nerves are highly sensitive, and as the weather gets cooler, the risk is getting bigger and bigger." ”

Baldwin didn't understand this half sentence at first, but then he finally figured it out, the weather cooled down, and wearing overcoats and thick coats became popular, and the vest would be very concealed on the body, and it would be impossible to prevent it.

"What do you think about this?"

"You mean that? The French against the United Bloc or the Algiers rebellion? ”

"Does it make a difference?"

"Yes, big, man......y," Chamberlain thought for a moment, "there is no doubt that the Algerians have been dishonest, and the small actions behind the coalition have only accelerated the situation, but they are not decisive, so this matter, no matter what we say, cannot be stopped for the time being." Chamberlain smiled, "Besides, isn't it our established policy to mess up the French and prevent them from doing whatever they want on the European continent?" ”

Baldwin nodded, there was some truth to that.

On the one hand, the United Group is not a company of little Ziano, he has a large number of shares in other European countries and consortiums, so we must keep a high degree of attention to the situation, and at the same time resolutely oppose the use of force by the French against a company; On the other hand, we would like to express our regret that the United Bloc is taking advantage of its own funds and geographical advantages to engage in these small actions behind the scenes, and this should not be the practice of a mature politician, so ......" Chamberlain paused, "can we ask the French to find a way to expel the main forces of the United Bloc from this oil field......

Baldwin's eyes lit up, as if he had grasped some key point: "You mean? ”

"Aren't the French tired of what little Ziano did? Should we use our brains and use economic means to squeeze little Ziano out, in this regard, Britain and France have a common interest. Chamberlain smiled slightly, "Hasn't Shell's stake been negotiated?" I think we can talk about it now, and then our share will overwhelm the share of little Ziano, and then ......"

"Great idea!" Baldwin thought to himself that in this way, the oil fields originally controlled by the United Group would be turned into oil fields jointly controlled by Britain and France, and as for who would dominate Britain and France in the future, that would be a matter for the future, at least we could find a way to squeeze the Italians out first.

Of course, Italy's international status still has to be maintained, and France cannot be allowed to dominate in Europe.

"But there is still a little problem here, how can the Algerian oil company and the Americans have a stake in it, how can they convince the Americans to side with us and not the Italians?"

"That's a good question, what do you do?"

"Maybe we're going to give the Americans a little extra good, tell them that after they've driven out the Italians, we'll take the French into the air, and then bring the Italians over to ......serve," Chamberlain smiled, "Didn't little Chiano lay the tubing?" This infrastructure can't be wasted, and he owes a lot of money to the Americans, and I don't think the American consortium will let go of such a good opportunity. ”

"Then let's try it first, and first express the government's opinion according to this caliber, huh...... Both France and Italy must be cautious and easily not resort to force!"

The crude oil transported through the oil pipeline was more than 1,000 tons on the first day, more than 2,000 tons on the second day, and from the third day, it stabilized above 4,000 tons every day, basically a 10,000-ton tanker can be filled in 3 days. Due to Contini's rush to repair the pipeline, the oil storage depot at the terminal has not yet been completed, so the pipeline crude oil is directly destined for loading by tankers. According to the arrangement, an oil tanker will come every three days to pick up the crude oil until the storage is completed.

"President, have we shipped away the crude oil in such a big way, and we don't pay taxes to the French?"

"Deliver, why don't you pay." Contini waved his hand, "How much oil has this ship carried?" ”

"More than 7,800 tons ......," someone quickly replied.

"You must be mistaken, this ship has a full load of only 6,700 tons, how can it be 7,800 tons? I want to report it to the French government truthfully......"

"Boom", everyone around laughed, the president is really good at this math! 85% off first, then 32% for the French.

Contini had a lot to say about this: it costs money to make a movie, it costs money to send tanks, it costs money to hire actors, it costs money to finance Algerians, it costs money to treat workers, how can you do it without scraping? This must be credited to the French!

"President, Rome sent a message that the British government has officially stated that they firmly oppose the use of force against companies and enterprises by any country or government, but express their understanding of the French repression in Algeria, which is France's internal affair and other countries have no right to intervene and should not interfere......"

"The British seem to be in a strange position...... "what do they think of the questions posed by the Coalition?" ”

"The evidence is insufficient, if the French used force against the oil fields, why are the oil fields still producing oil now?"

The British are really cunning and cunning, and they used counter-evidence to restrain half of the film's propaganda effect: You said that the oil fields were hit and suffered great losses, so why is it good to be producing oil? Algiers, on the contrary, the French, is now in a mess.

Contini nodded slightly: This evil sect's reply is really not easy to answer. Considering that now that the United Group has lit the fire, it can no longer fan the flames so as not to set itself on fire, so he said: "Then send a telegram to the French government and tell them that we have already produced oil, and more than 6,700 tons have been shipped away, which has been registered in the accounts, and oil tankers will be sent to transport it away one after another, and France can send ships to collect the follow-up parts at any time, or send supervisors to Tripoli to garrison, and we will provide them with work convenience......"

Everyone understands that this is a stone throwing to ask for directions, to see how the French government picks up the stubble, if the French twist and pinch come, it means that the stubble has passed, if the French government refuses to take it, it means that there is still a big backhand.

Another day later, Contini received a telegram from Antonio saying that Anglo-Dutch Shell had again offered to take a stake on the condition that he receive a 10% stake for $60 million...... He asked how to reply?

"What does it mean to come to the stake at this critical time? The British intend to eat our good? Contini was a little uncertain, but because the British government's statement was very confusing, he couldn't say too much, and he had to give the other party a little sweetness, so he finally replied, "The price is 65 million, after all, we have added oil pipelines and other facilities after the last 65 million quotation, and we are usually going to be promoted, considering the friendly relationship with the British government, keep the quotation unchanged......"

On November 14, the same note was also sent to Briand, who himself was annoyed by the affairs of Algiers, that colonial regiment is said to have lost more than half of its troops, plus the loss of troops in Algiers, the whole region was in a commotion, the United Group here produced oil, the British over there sent such a painless statement, coupled with the overt and covert persuasion of many countries in recent days, which made him very angry, and finally slapped the table and said: "Ignore the oil for the time being, we will settle accounts with little Ziano later, First send a foreign army to eradicate the rebels in Algiers, and not a single one will be left! ”
