"No, I'm firmly against it!" Tamusta's voice came to everyone's ears: "Two hundred thousand troops into battle? No, this war has nothing to do with Egypt! ”

His emotions are particularly emotional today: "The war in Egypt is over, and we no longer need to sacrifice the lives of Egyptian soldiers for Germany, for the so-called Axis powers." Two hundred thousand Egyptian troops into the war? If it is 200,000 today, then tomorrow Germany will make even more excessive demands, and the national strength of the whole Egypt will be completely drained! What Egypt needs most now is restoration, restoration! ”

"Please calm down, Deputy Chief of the General Staff of Tamusta." In the stunned eyes of countless Egyptian officials, Khamlemu forcibly endured the unhappiness in his heart: "Germany helped us drive out the British, and we have declared war on the Allies, and it is our obligation to send troops."

"Minister of Defense, I don't mean to insult you, but I firmly oppose it." To Khamlemu, Tamusta still maintained the respect he deserved: "Although we have declared war on the Allies, I have already fiercely opposed it before, and it is not in the interests of Egypt. If we accede to the unreasonable demands of the Germans again, more demands will come in waves, and there will never end. General, I solemnly put forward my opinion again, oppose, resolutely oppose! Not only must we not send a single soldier into the war, but we must immediately negotiate with the Germans and demand that they leave our land immediately."

Khamlemu was very unhappy, and it seemed that Tamursta had not figured out the current situation at all.

Germany was the greatest contributor to Egypt's freedom, not a new aggressor, as Tamusta claimed. Be an ally. The decision to send troops to Khamlemu did not feel that there was anything inappropriate.

Since becoming deputy chief of the General Staff, Khamlemu felt that Tamursta had changed, and he dared to oppose even his own words. This is not the attitude of a subordinate in the world.

Kannemo's greatest fear was to provoke the Germans

He was full of gratitude to the Germans, and especially to Baron Alexon, without which he would be now. Perhaps he had died at gunpoint of the British.

And without the Germans, they themselves would not have the status and prestige they have now.

The fact that all of Egypt is now in its own hands shows the trust that the Germans have in them. It shouldn't be Tamusta's attitude, it shouldn't

And in the ensuing vote, Tamusta was disappointed. Almost all of them were on Khamlemu's side

Tamusta also felt that General Khamlemu had changed, and that he had become so strange that it was difficult to understand the generals of the past, who regarded the interests of Egypt as their highest honor. But since contact with the Germans. It was as if he had been magically spelled, a completely different person

He listened to the Germans in everything, and everywhere he looked at the Germans, and what the Germans said was more effective than what the king said.

There are also these ministers, one by one, flattering, only knowing the blind obedience

Is this the Egypt of freedom that it is constantly pursuing?

Ignoring Tamusta's mood, Canlemu quickly shifted the conversation to tomorrow's welcoming ceremony for Italian leader Benito Mussolini, which was again met with strong opposition from Tamurasta.

In his opinion, an Italian came to Cairo to inspect. What is this? Could it be that Egypt became not only a colony of Germany, but even of the Italians?

Once the welcome ceremony is held. It shows that Egypt has succumbed to such colonization

Tamusta expressed his strong opposition, and even had a heated argument with Khamlemu for the first time, which would never have happened before.

In the end, Khamlemu relied on his power to forcibly suppress Tamusta's opposition.

"Well, I'll have no choice but to resign," Tamusta said the last thing he wanted to say: "I don't think the current government can represent Egypt's interests at all." ”

"Are you saying that I can't represent the interests of Egypt?" Khamlemu asked, holding back the displeasure in his heart.

"Yes, I think so." Tamusta completely opened himself up, "You're becoming a stranger, General. As much as I still have a lot of respect for you, I think that Egypt's interests will be completely lost under your leadership. General, the philosophies between us are completely different, and in this case, I consider myself no longer fit for the current position. ”

"In that case, then I accept your resignation." Khamlemu said coldly.

In everyone's astonished eyes, Tamusta left without looking back

He broke with Khamlemu completely.

And this will be an irreparable rupture.

Looking at the backs of his former subordinates, Khamlemu's eyes showed deep worry.

Of course, this is not because he has lost a good and loyal subordinate, but because the "Egyptian officer corps" in Tamusta's hands has too much influence in Egypt.

Gotta find a way, no matter what, find a way to get rid of the terrible "Egyptian officer corps"

Cairo has become secretive.

By this time, Major Wattel had taken full responsibility for counterintelligence in Cairo.

Faced with the repeated successes of Major Wattell's insidious "plundering operations", Gilbert, a British intelligence officer, was really anxious. Because this conspiracy of Major Wattel was carried out entirely by his own hands. He had unconsciously become an accomplice of the German intelligence services. For this, Gilbert was deeply condemned by his conscience and bitter. So, at the risk of being shot, he added some warning signals to his telegram again and again, hoping that the London headquarters would find something unusual. However, Gilbert's efforts were unsuccessful. Every time a message was sent, the German intelligence officers sat next to him and watched his every move, and whenever they saw anything unusual in the message, they immediately pressed the switch to interfere with it, and locked Gilbert in the next room and beat him violently, causing him to suffer terribly. Despite this, Gilbert never gave up on this effort. He always believed that as long as his alarm signal was issued, London would see through the German conspiracy.

On one occasion, Gilbert took advantage of the fact that the German who was spying on him was not paying attention, inserting some hard-to-find imaginary codes into a message to send a warning signal to the headquarters in London. But what Gilbert didn't expect was that the London side was still insensitive, and nothing changed afterwards. Gilbert was desperate, he didn't expect that the well-known British intelligence agencies would be so vain!

What Gilbert didn't expect was that not only did the alarm signals he sent out at the risk of his life never arouse the vigilance and attention of the British intelligence agencies, but even his comrade-in-arms Lawson. Heaton fled back to London after much hardship and death, and reported Cairo's mistakes to his face, but did not attract the attention of the leaders of the Intelligence Bureau.

Lawson. Ever since he was captured by the Germans, Heaton has been held in a Cairo prison with the British who were captured by the Germans after being airdropped to Cairo.

Lawson. After being imprisoned in Cairo Prison, Heaton was held solitary home in a solitary cell on the top floor of the four-story building, where he was fed and watered by German guards, and was not allowed to go downstairs in the courtyard with other prisoners.

That night, Lawson. The moment Heaton landed and was arrested, it became clear that something had happened to Gilbert. Among those who were later arrested, he found many more familiar faces. Lawson. Heaton realized the seriousness of the problem and thought he had to inform London immediately.

But how do you get the word out? There was a running water pipe leading to the downstairs room, and his newspaper classmate, British Army Lieutenant Holmes, was locked downstairs. So, Lawson. Heaton was ready to deliver the message through this water pipe. One night, Lawson. Heaton found a small wooden stick and tapped it on the hose at regular intervals, like tapping on a keyboard on a transmitter. But after knocking a few times in succession, there was no response downstairs. But he did not lose heart, repeated the action, and continued to knock. Finally there was an echo downstairs. Lawson. Heaton knew that a man trained in telegraphy would have a professional sensitivity to the sound of long and short tapping, and he decided to play a telegraph game with Holmes.

"I'm Lawson. Heaton, please answer! Lawson. Heaton sent a telegram to Holmes in Morse code.

"I'm Holmes, I'm Holmes!" Holmes answered downstairs.

Lawson. Heaton was so excited that he raised his wooden stick and continued to deliver: "Inform London that I have been arrested, that all the infiltrators have been seized, and that the radio station is in the hands of the Germans!" ”

Incredibly, the information was transmitted to London through the hands of Holmes.

However, when the Special Operations Committee of the British Secret Intelligence Service received this information, it was suspicious and did not know whether this information was true or false. They sent a telegram to Gilbert to test it.

The telegram demanded that the Cairo secret intelligence organization immediately organize the blowing up of the tower of the Cairo radio station and designated Lawson. Heaton led the command.

The Special Operations Committee believed at the time that if the German radio towers had not been bombed, it would have been Gilbert and Lawson. Heaton and other intelligence agents were indeed arrested, which proves that the content of this information transmitted through Holmes is true. In the future, then, they will have to contact Cairo in another way.

The Germans, however, were well prepared for this and were ready for a good show! (To be continued......)
