Tamusta and the vast majority of the "Egyptian officer corps" he led were arrested.

Immediately, the Egyptian government announced that it had successfully cracked an attempted "mutiny" thanks to the efforts of German intelligence agencies.

The commander of the mutiny was Tamusta. Ahmabi and his "Egyptian officer corps".

Moreover, the "Egyptian Officers" single-handedly planned the assassination of Mussolini, the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Italy.

The Egyptians were somewhat surprised, but the Egyptian government and the Germans then announced that the mutiny had been quelled and that no one but a few of the mutiny planners would be held accountable.

This largely calmed the panic in the minds of the Egyptian people and soldiers

Now, the greatest threat to the new Egyptian government and to the Germans, the "Egyptian officer corps", has been completely eradicated, and Cairo is essentially in the hands of the Germans, except for the hated Italians.

And the current supreme commander of Germany in Egypt, Ernst . Bram met Mussolini for the first time and told him the "good news".

Although Mussolini did not see this as good news at all

"I have some unpleasant things to tell you, Mr. Prime Minister." Wang Weiyi said slowly: "According to the confessions of captured British spies and Egyptians, some high-ranking Italian officers also participated in the mutiny."

"What? That's impossible! Mussolini cried out: "All the Italian officers, no, all the Italians are loyal to me!" They will never betray me! ”

"Really?" Wang Weiyi smiled: "So what about the many assassinations you have encountered?" Is it also their so-called allegiance? ”

Mussolini couldn't help but shudder, which was the last thing he wanted to think of

April 1926. Mussolini was in Geneva for the International Medical Congress. One day, Mussolini saw an Englishwoman walking towards him smiling. Mussolini was getting ready to get into the car and watched the English women arrive. Mussolini stood beside the car and hesitated, as if waiting for something. Suddenly, the woman drew her pistol, and before Mussolini could react, the bullets were whizzing. However, the bullet only passed through Mussolini's nostrils, and actually only wounded a layer of skin! If we had gone any further, the fascist leader would have died!

This is just the beginning.

September 11 of the same year. There was a man named Gino. Luchetti's youth wanted to stab Mussolini with a grenade. Before he started, he observed Mussolini going to work at 10 a.m. every day in a Lancha car through the Pia Gate. He prepared two grenades. On the morning of Sept. 11, Luchetti hid early behind a newsstand. Look at the gates of Pia. When he saw Mussolini's car coming, he rushed out. Unfortunately, it was discovered by the driver early. The driver initially tried to knock him down, but later saw that he had a grenade in his hand and increased his horsepower. Fly away. Luchetti threw the grenade out with all his might. It's a pity that the throw was too high, and the grenade exploded at a distance of 50 meters from the car. Luchetti was sentenced to 30 years in prison. A new law was enacted that would impose the death penalty on anyone who attempted to kill Mussolini, and Luchetti was executed.

This was the last thing Mussolini wanted to mention, but now it came out of the mouth of the German marshal.

Wang Weiyi said unhurriedly: "Let's be honest, there are many forces against you in Italy, and the same is true in Germany, and we have to do it." It is to completely eradicate these forces that oppose you. There are too many oddities in this assassination, how did the assassin know your route and time to enter the city? The Italian soldiers who were supposed to be with you to protect you? Where did you go when you were assassinated? ”

"They say they have your orders. My safety is the responsibility of the German side. Mussolini hesitated.

"No, I've never given such an order." Wang Weiyi flatly denied it: "I have repeatedly emphasized that the Italian army is mainly responsible for your security, and we are only assisting." ”

Mussolini was still skeptical, and Wang Weiyi handed over the confessions of the British and Egyptians to him.

Mussolini looked closely, and the more he looked, the more surprised he became: "General Chinovo was rebelled by the British in 1940?" It's so surprising God, who did I see, General Benisko? That's my most trusted general, Field Marshal Ernst, are you sure you're not mistaken? General Motta was also involved in the mutiny? ”

"Yes, it's all my intelligence officers." Wang Weiyi said lightly: "This is an organized mutiny with the participation of all senior officers, and their target is only one, that is, you." Luckily, we were able to crack this organization in time."

Mussolini still refused to believe that so many Italian officers had really betrayed him.

Wang Weiyi seemed to see what he was thinking: "Mr. Prime Minister, you can completely imagine that the Italian army has so many artillery, so many tanks, so many aircraft, and so many excellent soldiers, why can it be defeated again and again on the battlefield?" What's even more ridiculous is that they can't even defeat the indigenous Africans with primitive weapons? Do you want to believe that all this is true, Prime Minister? ”

These words once again touched Mussolini's sore spot

Indeed, this is also a question that he has always been puzzled with. The Italian army has always been a force of pride for him, and he even fantasizes about conquering all of Africa and even all of Europe with these armies.

But the reality was so frustrating, the Italian army was not only defeated on the battlefield

Mussolini was an arrogant and suspicious man, and when these two personalities are concentrated in the head of a country, it is very scary.

He prefers to believe in Ernst. What Bram said was true, the reason why the Italian army was repeatedly defeated and became the laughing stock of the enemy was not the incompetence of the army, but the betrayal of those commanders.

Although there are still many doubts about this, it is the best excuse for Mussolini to excuse his failure

At present, in Italy, and even within the fascist party, Mussolini has encountered strong opposition because of the continuous defeat of the Italian army, and if he can find some responsibility for the defeat at this time, or more accurately find some scapegoats, it will undoubtedly relieve the pressure on himself

So in some ways, Mussolini and Wang Weiyi were tacit

"Also, the remnants of British troops in Africa are trying to launch a new offensive against Egypt with the renegade Italian officers, and the RAF is ready to bombard Cairo by sea, and you are very unsafe here." Wang Weiyi said unhurriedly: "Therefore, I suggest that Mr. Prime Minister leave Cairo immediately, and when you return to Rome, you will get my telegram, and all your worries will be solved."

Mussolini laughed at him and now found himself somewhat fond of this Ernst. Bream too.

The Germans did the work of settling the "mutiny" officers, and they did not need to meddle at all, and even if something happened in the future, the responsibility could be completely shifted to the Germans, and they did not need to admit any responsibility.

Ernst. Bram thought too much for himself.

Of course, the interests of Africa must still be taken into account, and after returning to Rome, he will have to immediately communicate with the German Führer Adolf. Hitler held a formal meeting to delineate the spheres of German and Italian power in Africa.

Mussolini was so immersed in his own illusions that he could never imagine who would have the final say in Germany.

"Well, then, I'll arrange for you to leave tomorrow, and of course, I'll have a big banquet for you tonight." Wang Weiyi said quietly.

"No, no." Mussolini shook his head: "The enemy is very rampant, and I will not give them any more opportunities." I'm leaving overnight tonight. Marshal Ernst, I would like you to prepare for me at least one armored regiment to defend me, and also to ensure the security of the airfield. ”

"I'm here for you, Mr. Prime Minister." Wang Weiyi smiled and said, "I'm looking forward to your next arrival." ”

"Aha, my friend, I also hope to see you in Rome, and you will receive my most gracious hospitality." Mussolini spoke with gusto.

Now, Ernst. A secret agreement was reached between Brem and Mussolini, somewhat dirty secret agreement

Many people will suffer from this, even inexplicably, but what can be done? When the leaders of a nation need victims, these people are forced to become victims.

Dirty deals, dirty politics.

When Wang Weiyi left Mussolini's residence, Mussolini was still in deep thought.

The blacksmith's son was a rude man on the outside, but since he was able to sit in this position, there was always something good about him.

What he had to think about was how to minimize the impact of the incident in Italy.

It is a good idea to use the hands of the Germans to calm domestic public opinion, but will you always be under the control of the Germans in the future? This is also something that Mussolini had to consider.

At this time, a sudden thunder rang out outside, startling Mussolini who was groaning. Damn it, is there such a terrible bomb mine in Africa?

At this time, Wang Weiyi, who was sitting in the car, also heard the thunder, and he knew that a storm was coming soon, and the Nile River was welcoming the arrival of this storm.

Rainstorms are coming, the Nile is rushing, and the whole of North Africa will be in for a big baptism! (To be continued......)
