Don't get me wrong, this Jackson isn't the one from the Brotherhood. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Jackson of the Brotherhood League was registered with the British, and it was not easy to infiltrate the British army.

As a friend, the German was clearly competent, and after each day of training, Jackson would take the initiative to come to Karim, either to do tactical deductions, or to have a drink together. Jackson has no family, one person eats enough and the whole family is not hungry, the captain's salary is not high but not low, one person consumes more than enough, Karim has nothing to worry about, and the relationship between the two quickly warms up.

Well, just as friends.

Jackson's military quality is still good, the standard German, rigorous and pragmatic, serious and meticulous, while Karim's style is more rough, and the attitude is simple and rough when training troops, and the effect is not bad, after all, Karim is also battle-hardened, and there is something real in his stomach.

So in the entire recruit camp, Karim's company and Jackson's company were the two best performing companies, winning many championships in the collective competition, and by June, Karim was promoted to commander of Battalion D of the 1st Iraqi Infantry Division, while Jackson was commander of Battalion E.

Both men were also promoted in rank, both to the rank of major, becoming one of the few high-ranking officers except for the British.

In early June, tensions intensified on the Syrian-Iraqi border, with both sides using all conventional weapons except artillery, and three battalions had already been placed on combat duty and had left the camp, leaving the camp much more empty.

The French were still very combat-ready on land, the British had nothing to take advantage of, the Hanazor oil field had been forced to stop, and all the bad news came back from the front.

That night, Jackson, as usual, came to Karim with a bottle of wine.

Karim asked McJid to prepare some beef jerky and roast lamb, and the two of them had a drink over the wine that Jackson had brought.

"It is estimated that in a few days, my troops will also go to the front." Jackson toasted Karim.

"In terms of battle sequence, my troops are ahead of your troops, so don't worry, as long as I haven't received the combat mission, it won't be your turn to fight." Karim had been keeping an eye on the progress of the war, waiting for an opportunity to avenge his brothers.

The formation of the Iraqi troops is very interesting, the regimental units have a unique code, or a unified national number, for example, Karim's regiment is the Hanasor regiment, or the second regiment, and the battalion-level troops are replaced by English letters, and this order is the so-called battle sequence.

If you look at this sequence of battles, Karim's Battalion D will soon be on combat duty, or with Jackson's troops.

"I wish we could be together, to be honest, in our twelve battalions, I would only like to fight side by side with your troops." Jackson doesn't notice a top hat for Karim.

"Don't say that, Mr. Steven will be upset." Karim didn't see how happy he was, he just kept drinking.

"Did you hear that? The French brought in the Foreign Legion. It seems that the Foreign Legion has indeed left a big shadow on the Germans, and when it comes to the Foreign Legion, Jackson's expression is a little confused.

After Lanfang and France came into contact with the alliance, there was a high demand for an alliance with Lanfang in Germany, and Jackson, as a German, did not take a position on this issue, it seemed that Germany should indeed form an alliance with Lanfang, but Jackson could not forget the damage caused to Germany by the Foreign Legion in the world war.

During the World War, Jackson was one of millions of soldiers on the Eastern Front.

"The current Foreign Legion is not the almost invincible Foreign Legion of the World War, the French have formed a new Foreign Legion with Africans as the main body, my God, those people are not even as good as those Annam people in French Indochina, I really don't know if the bigwigs of the French War Department were kicked in the head by donkeys." Karim didn't have much to worry about, the French were self-destructing the Great Wall, and now the Foreign Legion was a standard thing.

"Yes, let's have a toast, thanks to Mr. Alexander Millerand." Jackson proposed.

Karim was about to respond, but McJid hurried in: "Sir, Your Excellency, General, please come over - and Mr. Jackson as well." ”

Along with McJid's voice, there was a sharp assembly whistle, and the moment he heard the whistle, Karim and Jackson glanced at each other, and then Karim raised his glass: "Good luck!" ”

"Good luck to us!" Jackson's expression wasn't easy either.

War, after all, is coming.

In mid-June, Syria finally could not endure Iraq's endless harassment and brazenly declared war on Iraq.

On the same day, three Syrian integrated divisions crossed the border and marched into Iraq, which immediately launched a general mobilization of the whole country, saying that it would fight the Syrians to the death.

On the surface, it was the Syrians and Iraqis who came to the stage, but the whole world knows that this is a standard proxy war.

That's fine, at least the war will be controlled to a certain extent, and if the French and British go into battle shirtless, it may be another world war.

Well, the world war impressed the whole world too much, and no one would want to do it again, if possible.

After the Syrians and Iraqis declared war, Qin Zhiyuan immediately convened a royal council.

"Let's fight, the more lively the fight, the better, it's best that the Iraqis can teach the French a profound lesson, let them understand their true fighting ability, and maybe Mr. Manguin will face reality at that time." Chen Kangjian, who finally returned to his homeland and could participate in the imperial meeting, ridiculed France.

The troops led by Chen Kangjian were transferred to Cam Ranh Bay last month and became neighbors with Manjing, the governor of French Indochina.

"What? Manjing is not honest now? "Defense Minister Qin Zhisheng also does not want to see the French, since the period of the Foreign Legion, Qin Zhisheng has not been very interested in the French.

In fact, before the world war, all the Chinese were not very interested in Westerners, after the world war, the combat effectiveness shown by the Chinese could finally be faced by Westerners, and the appearance of Lanfang also attracted a large number of Westerners to join, and those Westerners who had joined Lanfang's nationality were also contributing to Lanfang's bloodshed, and at this time there was no barbarian debate, in fact, the original so-called "barbarian" was just an inferiority complex and arrogant Ah Q spirit at work, and ordinary Chinese really did not have much bad feeling towards Westerners.

There is a level of problem involved here, the Chinese are the most kind people in the world, as long as life can go on, the Chinese will not take risks, and ordinary Chinese who are penniless and have no longevity are not worthy of the memory of foreigners, since there is no direct conflict of interest, there is no dislike or disgust.

"What if you don't be honest? As far as Manjing's men are concerned, I am now stepping up their infiltration, and maybe in a while, if Manking orders his troops to attack Cam Ranh Bay, his troops will directly mutiny, and then it will be up to the French to see what kind of face the French have. Chen Kangjian's heart is also black, and he is also handy in making small movements.

"Be careful, don't let Mangin get caught by the horse's feet, this Mangin is not as thick and leafy as it seems." Qin Zhiyuan kindly reminded.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I'm also an embroiderer." Chen Kangjian didn't care, even if it was a real fight, Chen Kangjian didn't take the Annan division that lacked soldiers and major generals in his eyes, but under Chen Kangjian, there was a fully equipped Annan division, and the morale was quite high.

The relationship between Annamite and the Chinese has been very good since the period of the Foreign Legion, in the world war, the Annam people are the best helpers of the Chinese, perhaps because of the influence of Han culture, the Annamite people have a high degree of identification with Lanfang, after the World War, two Annan divisions retired directly from the Foreign Legion to join the Lanfang army, and the two divisions have been expanded to six divisions, four of which are stationed in Goryeo and Japan.

The French colonization of Annam was also not very humane, although the French were a little more merciful than the British, but it was only "a little", and the life of the Annam people under French rule was not very pleasant. When Lan Fang and France were allies, several Annan generals in Lan Fang's army, Wu Yuanting and Ruan Juncai, they could still keep calm, and after France and Lan Fang dissolved their alliance, Wu Yuanting and they had written many times, asking for the Annan people to rebel against the French colonial rule, and Wu Yuanting even wrote a blood letter, willing to retire from Lan Fang's army and return to Annan to lead the resistance struggle in Annan.

Qin Zhiyuan empathized with Wu Yuanting's anger, of course, for the sake of long-term consideration, Qin Zhiyuan appeased Wu Yuanting and them, and gave them a future promise, so that they could train troops in the garrison with peace of mind, and there would always be a time when it would come in handy.

For Qin Zhiyuan's words, Wu Yuanting and they were convinced.

If you don't believe it, you can't do it, if you don't have Lan Fang's support, it will not be easy for the Annam people to resist the French, the French Far East Fleet in Guangzhou Bay still has a relatively strong strength, although it is vulnerable in front of the Lan Fang fleet, but in the eyes of the Annamite people who lack guns and artillery, it is already an irresistible "unnatural" force.

Now we can see the advantages of Britain and France adopting a single colonial economy, without a complete industrial system, it is impossible to support modern warfare, not all nations can engage in "protracted warfare", and not everyone can win aircraft and artillery with millet plus rifles.

"Regarding the Middle East side, to say that, it is necessary to shift our strategic direction to the Middle East direction, and the initial plan is to deploy the two divisions transferred from Madagascar to Moon Bay, and at the appropriate time, we can intervene in the war in the Middle East." Qin Zhiyuan wanted to play the game of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight.

Pierre finally couldn't resist the pressure from the Parisian government, and just last month, Pierre ended his employment contract, and two divisions in Madagascar were about to return to Lanfang, and now it was just right to deploy them directly to Moon Bay.

Moon Bay is the once famous Diego Garcia.

"What about the name? We have to be famous! Lu Zhengxiang was a little worried, it was right that the cannon went off with gold and ten thousand taels, but for logistics, modern warfare is a disaster.

"Nominally? Oh, it's very simple - jihad! Qin Zhiyuan got up suddenly, and everyone remembered that Qin Zhiyuan also had an identity, the Grand Master of the Catholic Knights Templar, and this identity was probably the best name for Qin Zhiyuan to intervene in the Middle East War.
