713 is a bit spicy
The Mobil oil field is about 350 kilometers away from Djerba, and if the "pit bull" is driving at full speed, it will only take about four hours to reach the Mobil oil field. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
After all, it is still a new car, and it needs a run-in period, and the soldiers of United Oil still cherish it, so at the end of the day, the convoy of United Oil Company and the guard sent by Prince Basel are still 200 kilometers away from the Mobil oil field.
This is not to blame for the slow running of the "matadors", but because the guards of the Prince of Basel are all "Mamluks" on camels, and they really can't get up fast if they want to.
At dusk, the troops set up camp at a place called Bazaar.
The bazaar was originally a small town, with a population of about three or four thousand, which may not sound like much, but it can already be regarded as a city in the sparsely populated Tunis.
Well, the "land" of Tunis is really not very "wide", and the population is also hard.
The current bazaar has been basically abandoned, and it is still a little close to the Mobil oil field, and many people are afraid of the strength of the brotherhood alliance and choose to move away, leaving behind some old, weak, sick and disabled.
The so-called "relocation" is also not true, at least in Mustafa's opinion, a considerable number of people here should have defected to the Brotherhood Alliance, rather than moved elsewhere. Mustafa is the head of the guard sent by the Prince of Basel, and he still bears the name of a prince, but he is already a side branch and has no real meaning.
"These damn untouchables, I really don't know how they live in this hellish place, they don't even have water, do they usually drink the northwest wind?" Mustafa, who walked into Yue Liangcai's tent, was still swearing.
Yue Liangcai is the supreme commander of the United Oil Company's security force, Yue Liangcai, who also came from the Foreign Legion, lost three fingers in the war, and joined the Lanfang Foreign Legion after retiring from the army, and then was sent to Tunis, where he became a senior officer in the United Oil Security Force.
By the way, the security forces of United Oil now have 12,000 people, including 4,000 in Libi Ya, 3,600 in Algeria, and the rest on Djerba.
The "bulldogs" used by Yue Liangcai's troops drank gasoline, but the camels ridden by Mustafa's soldiers asked for water, and it seemed that Mustafa did not find enough water, so he was a little annoyed.
"Don't worry, take your time, do you want a drink?" Yue Liangcai casually comforted him, raised the cup in his hand and gestured to Mustafa.
Although he was away from home, as a high-ranking officer, Yue Liangcai still had full privileges. For example, the tent that Yue Liangcai is using now, although it does not occupy a large area, it has everything he needs, and even a set of professional tea sets for making tea, which is not common in North Africa.
However, it is obvious that what Yue Liangcai is drinking now is not tea, but liquor, or liquor with a relatively high degree, although it is still a meter or two away, Mustafa can still smell the smell of alcohol.
"Hey, you're rude like that, you should know our taboo." Mustafa's face changed immediately, and it didn't mean much fierceness.
The situation is stronger than people, although this is North Africa, but it is obvious that the power in Yue Liangcai's hands is much stronger than Mustafa, when Mustafa set off, the Prince of Basel also repeatedly told Mustafa to be careful not to anger these "infidels" with abnormal nerves, so Mustafa still chose a more moderate way to express his opinions.
"This is not wine, but the traditional drink of our country, well, it's similar to your country's milk tea, you smell, the standard soy sauce taste." Yue Liangcai stared at him and said nonsense, his expression was quite sincere.
"Thank you, your taste is special." Mustafa was very surprised by the thickness of Yue Liangcai's face, and waved his hand again and again to express his gratitude, and then sat down far away from Yue Liangcai.
"We should be at the Mobil field tomorrow, right?" Mustafa watched Yue Liangcai feast on a sip of barbecue meat and wine, his throat really squirmed up and down unconsciously, and the saliva in his mouth became more and more.
It is undoubtedly a blessing to have a hearty dinner after a long journey. But if it's the most cruel thing in the world to go hungry after a long journey and watch someone else enjoy a sumptuous dinner.
"Definitely, in fact, if it weren't for the care of your camels, we would be able to get to the Mobil field today, and then we would be able to set off back to base tomorrow night." Yue Liangcai was full of confidence and did not count the time it would take to launch an attack on the Brotherhood Alliance.
"Are we going to wait for the follow-up troops, wait until the troops are concentrated, and then launch an attack." Mustafa did not have Yue Liangcai's self-confidence, and his eyebrows were very worried.
According to the information obtained by Mustafa, there were about 5,000 soldiers of the Brotherly Alliance gathered in the Mobil oil field, which was a fairly large force, even if the troops led by Yue Liangcai had strong combat effectiveness, they had to be careful to avoid capsizing in the gutter.
What's more, there are no 1,000 people under Yue Liangcai now, according to Mustafa's conclusion, Yue Liangcai only has more than 500 people here, which is quite different from the number of soldiers of the fraternal alliance in the intelligence, and Mustafa really doesn't have much confidence.
"No, why give them the credit? We'll attack directly, and when the follow-up troops catch up, let them clean up the battlefield. Yue Liangcai is confident, and the meaning of grabbing credit is obvious.
Before leaving, Yue Liang knew that there was no follow-up force at all, here was all the manpower, Chris didn't want the troops to drive a car to practice, although there was a lot of gasoline from United Petroleum, but it couldn't be wasted.
"Come on, come on, try this, this is our chef's specialty, and most people don't have a taste to enjoy it." There were guards who brought a barbecue to Mustafa, and Yue Liangcai was very enthusiastic.
"Thank you, thank you very much." Mustafa does not refuse, and to be honest, Mustafa has been hungry for a long time.
How can you have meat without wine? Yue Liangcai poured a cup casually, put it beside Mustafa, and did not say anything to him, and continued to feast on his own.
"Uh-huh, this one tastes great." Mustafa ate with pleasure.
United Oil has money, and Lanfang is a place where spices are produced, so the food of United Oil Company is still quite good, take the barbecue in front of Mustafa as an example, the chefs of United Oil Company use three kinds of oil alone when making it, and then also use pepper, cumin, seasoning, pepper, fennel, peanuts, sesame seeds and other condiments, which is much more complicated than the local method of Tuni Si.
Of course, if it is in the 21st century, many people may think that only a little salt can eat the original thing, but at the beginning of the 20th century, it is the right thing to eat without getting tired of eating fine, and only sprinkling a little salt is considered the most vulgar way to eat, and people with a little status are disdainful.
Mustafa still has the hidden attribute of a "prince", and he is also very particular about eating, and in this aspect of eating, the whole world is not very particular about the Chinese, so it can be imagined that Mustafa loves the barbecue in front of him, and he even eats his tongue.
"You don't have to worry about the war, we are experts in this area, you can just watch it when the time comes, and see how we teach those brothers a lesson! To tell you the truth, I know the two Iprasins of the Brotherhood Alliance, who were originally eliminated by our security forces, but I didn't expect them to be famous now, and I will let them understand that there is a reason why they are not qualified to join the United Oil Security Force in the first place. Yue Liangcai relieved Mustafa while eating, and Mustafa nodded again and again.
The combat effectiveness of the security forces of the United Oil Company is second to none among the three countries in North Africa, and even the guards of the Governor's Palace sent by the French government to North Africa are far behind the security forces of the United Oil Company, which even the Governor himself admits and Mustafa has no opinion.
Hearing Yue Liangcai's oath, Mustafa also let go of the big stone in his heart, the key is Yue Liangcai's sentence "You don't need to go to war", which really reassured Mustafa.
Before coming, to be honest, Mustafa was really a little worried, according to the terms agreed between the Prince of Basel and Chris, Mustafa and these people were all under the jurisdiction of Yue Liangcai, so if Yue Liangcai asked Mustafa's people to take on part of the combat mission during the battle, Mustafa did not have enough reason to refuse.
And if the relationship between United Oil and the Brotherhood Alliance is really as close as the legend, then Yue Liangcai is really likely to use this opportunity to pit Mustafa to death, the key is that Mustafa can't resist yet, so now with Yue Liangcai's promise, you can imagine Mustafa's ease.
"That's right, the two Iprasins of the Brotherhood are heretics, and they should be stoned to death so that they will never be able to live beyond their lives." Mustafa is vicious.
To say that the way of carrying out the death penalty in North Africa is really not very creative, either by stoning to death, or directly beheaded, or by burning to death, it is really simple and crude, without the slightest artistry. Look at the death penalty methods in the East, such as cannon branding, Ling Chi, Dapi, etc., etc., they are really varied, and they have risen to a certain artistic height.
"Uh-huh, salute my lord!" Yue Liangcai suddenly raised his glass and shouted, then raised his head and drank cleanly.
"Hail to my Lord!" Mustafa also raised his glass in response, and then also raised his head and drank cleanly.
It's just that this is liquor, and it's a high liquor.
Mustafa's face immediately turned as red as a monkey's ass, and I don't know if it was because of his sensitive constitution or because of embarrassment.
"It's just a drink—" Yue Liangcai still had a humble face.
"yes, yes, it's just a drink, it tastes special, well, it's special—" Mustafa grinned a little, as if it was only now feeling a little spicy.
Uh-huh, it's really a little spicy.
