Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    What the British were most worried about finally happened.

    On September 10, 1942, Germany sent troops to Iran without declaring war.

    A division of the German Armed SS, three divisions of the Wehrmacht, and the Bulgarian, Yugoslav, and Turkish coalition forces totaling 200,000 troops attacked Iran aggressively.

    This is the most frightening thing.

    Iran is just like Tš¹rkiye, its position is too critical for the Allies!

    After all, Baron Ernst Alexson von Brahm showed his strategic intentions in front of the whole world without reservation:

    First, conduct one or two major counterattacks in Russia to weaken the Soviet army to the maximum extent and stabilize the battlefield situation.  Then, open up the second battlefield:

    Turkish battlefield!

    Once the Turkish battlefield is completed, it can attack the Soviet Union or Iran at any time, and then attack the Middle East to integrate with the African battlefield.

    In this way, the Allied forces will be forced to move back and forth behind the German army, tired of responding to orders.

    Now, the fun has begun

    Iran is caught in a fierce war, while Britain is focusing on the North African battlefield, trying to end the African war with a major war.

    At this time, a group of mysterious people have entered Cairo:

    Ernst Brahm and his friends.

    ??Guo Yunfeng, Elina, Klingenberg, Myrister

    This group of people are fearless and dare to go anywhere.  Even if the enemy now surrounds them, they can still talk and laugh.

    Mysterious and beautiful Cairo has given birth to countless mysterious legends, the Sphinx, and the Egyptian pyramids. Thousands of years of civilization have made this city shine with dazzling brilliance all the time.

    Cairo¡¯s interrogation is very strict, but it is far from what Ankara can match.  The British here closely monitor every strange face that appears in Cairo. Once they think they are suspicious, they will arrest them without hesitation.

    Wang Weiyi¡¯s identity is still Andrew Baron Torxon. In Cairo, the British have too many privileges.

    The identity of the baron and his English with a London accent made some British people who came to check them relax their vigilance, and even helped them guide the way very enthusiastically.

    The British would never have dreamed that the enemy¡¯s commander-in-chief would enter Cairo with such arrogance

    The companions who did not speak Arabic were left in the hotel, and Mr. Ernst Brahm made a surprising decision:

    He was going to visit Mohammad Farouk I, the second king of Egypt and Sudan and the ruler of Nubia, Kordofan and Darfur.

    Farouk I is probably a strange flower among all the kings in the world.

    Farooq began education at the age of five, but he had a learning disability and made no progress.  But under the cultivation of his father, Farooq unexpectedly became good at calligraphy.  Hoping to make a difference, his father decided to send Farouk to England for further study, but he was uneducated and spent his days gambling and hunting with the aristocratic children.  In addition, Farooq was lecherous by nature, often hanging out with young girls, and had relationships with at least a dozen women.

    In May 1936, Farouk inherited the throne due to the death of his father. At the age of only 16, he owned a fortune of 100 million US dollars, 200 cars and 75,000 acres of fertile land.  It was not until July 26, 1937 that Farouk officially reached the legal age and ascended the throne.  After inheriting the throne, Farouk married the noble lady Farida in 1938. However, he continued to seduce women after marriage and publicly advocated that people should not be restrained in love and should be allowed to have mistresses.  His mistresses are numerous, such as actresses and famous female talents.  In addition, Farooq loves food. He can eat twelve eggs for breakfast and 40 quails for lunch. He can drink up to 30 bottles of beer a day. He often locks himself in a dark room and eats chocolate continuously.  , the weight rose straight up, to 300 pounds.  He was addicted to gambling and lost US$150,000 in 7 hours.

    Farouk also has a well-known quirk. Farouk studied with an old pickpocket in prison and learned theft skills. To thank the pickpocket, he was released from prison for the first time.  After finishing his studies, Farouk participated in various dances and evening parties in the palace, went among the distinguished guests to steal, and kept the obtained items as a personal collection.  His most famous deed was that he successfully stole the pocket watch of British Prime Minister Churchill. In the end, the pocket watch was returned to Churchill only after the British government severely protested against Farooq.

    Wang Weiyi still remembers that Farouk also stole the burial objects from the body of the Shah of Iran when the funeral procession of the Shah of Iran passed through Egypt in 1844, including swords, belts and medals.  Those who knew the inside story jokingly called Farooq ""The thief".

    Now, Wang Weiyi decided to visit the famous "Cairo Thief" to put the safest layer of protection on his trip to Cairo.

    Wang Weiyi asked Xiao Ling to help him get a classic Maserati sports car from the 1940s.  If you want to get close to a king, you always have to spend some money.

    Then, through German intelligence agents in Cairo, he successfully met Mr. Roliman, the British General Counsel stationed in Cairo to King Farouk I.

    Mr. Roliman showed great respect for this baron from the UK. When he heard that Baron Andrew wanted to meet with Farouk I, he immediately said that there was no problem. Farouk I was willing to meet any British citizen.  people.

    "But" Mr. Roliman said, half jokingly and half seriously: "Baron Andrew, you have to take care of your valuables."

    "Why?" Wang Weiyi asked as if he didn't know the inside story.

    "This" Mr. Roliman hesitated: "I'm afraid you don't know that this king has a very strange habit. He likes to steal things."

    Wang Weiyi had an incredible expression on his face: "Perhaps the fatigue of the journey caused me to have auditory hallucinations. You said a king likes to steal things? According to my understanding, he has a fortune of 100 million US dollars."

    "It has nothing to do with how much money he has. It's a personal hobby." Mr. Roliman emphasized the words "personal hobby": "Many guests have had their things stolen by him, including many foreign envoys.  His Majesty the King prides himself on being able to successfully steal guests' belongings, so to speak. He has a special storage room where all the things he steals are stored, whether they are from guests or civilians in Cairo."

    Wang Weiyi shrugged: "Okay, I will take care of everything on my body. However, I hope that the sports car I give to His Majesty the King will not be spotted by His Majesty the King in advance."

    Mr. Roliman laughed "haha".

    This is an interesting idea. If Farouk I stole the sports car that was almost his own, I don¡¯t know what kind of expression His Majesty the King would have.

    In the Cairo Palace, Wang Weiyi met the famous "Cairo Thief"-Mohammed Farouk I for the first time in his life.

    After the polite greetings, King Farouk I could not wait to say: "Dear Mr. Baron, I heard that you brought me a very special gift, right?"

    "Yes, Your Majesty the King." Wang Weiyi has never seen such an impatient king. For a head of state, this is really rude.

    Who would have thought that Faruk I stood up immediately: "Come on, let's go and see what gifts the British have brought for me. I can't wait a minute."

    Roliman shrugged helplessly to "Baron Andrew", Farouk I was such a person, so what can be done?

    When Farouk I saw the extremely beautiful Maserati sports car, his eyes suddenly shone with light: "God, this is so beautiful. I have never seen such a beautiful car. I  All 200 cars are like a pile of rubbish compared to it."

    Then, he couldn¡¯t wait to get on his new sports car and test drive it in the palace.

    His ministers looked helplessly at their king, who had lost face in front of the British guests.  But what can be done?  Who made the king have such a temper?

    Now, the only thing the Egyptian ministers can hope for is that His Majesty the King must not use his "stunt" to steal something from a British baron, otherwise, it may cause diplomatic disputes

    With great difficulty, Faruk I finally stopped the sports car with satisfaction and got out of the car happily. He walked up and hugged Wang Weiyi fiercely, and then relaxed: "Mr. Baron, I am too  Thank you, this is the greatest gift I have ever seen. Ah, I have to prepare a special dinner for you today, Mr. Roliman, and I think you should attend."

    After saying these words, accompanied by his ministers, regardless of whether his guests agreed or not, he left here with a high speech.

    Such a king is really rare, Wang Weiyi smiled.

    "Mr. Baron, I suggest you check to see if anything is missing," Roliman reminded kindly at this time.

    "I don't think he has a chance to steal anything from me." Wang Weiyi checked it over with a smile, and then the smile froze on his face.

    Damn it, one of my pocket watches is missing!

    ??Maybe Farouk I was not a good king, but he was definitely an excellent thief.  In that hug just now, Wang Weiyi's pocket watch was stolen without anyone noticing.

    It makes people laugh or cry, but Baron Skeleton¡¯s pocket watch was actually stolen by a king!  (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
