    The news of the assassination of Mussolini, Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Italy, caused a commotion in Cairo, and a city-wide manhunt began.

    But at that moment, it seemed as if he could escape. After the shot hit Mussolini, a person disappeared.

    Mussolini was rushed to the hospital. This time, Marshal Ernst Brahm and Marshal Erwin Rommel of the German Empire finally appeared.

    Come to visit the wounded allied leader.

    Mussolini¡¯s injury was not serious, just a bullet in his shoulder, but even this frightened the Italian dictator.

    "The security is too bad, the security is too bad." When he met Ernst and Rommel, Mussolini even forgot the basic etiquette, and just kept complaining repeatedly: "I have never seen public security before."  In such a bad city, I was directly assassinated. Marshal Ernst, what are you doing?"

    Now, this leader who considers himself the ruler of Africa has shifted all the responsibility to the Germans.

    His logic is very absurd. He regards Cairo as his own. However, once something goes wrong, all the responsibility becomes the Germans.

    Wang Weiyi was not angry at all: "Yes, Mr. Prime Minister, I also think the security is too bad. I am very heartbroken and angry about your assassination. I have ordered my people to launch a manhunt across Cairo. At the same time, I ordered  All German troops have strengthened their control over various places. To this end, I have also specifically requested that three more infantry divisions and one armored division be deployed into North Africa. Please believe that the situation is now completely under our control."

    Mussolini felt a little more at ease now, but the Germans had sent four more divisions into North Africa on such a large scale, which made him always feel that something was wrong.

    It should be Italy that massively increases its troops

    However, just when he wanted to inquire further about the situation, Wang Weiyi took the hat from the adjutant and put it on: "Mr. Prime Minister, please rest assured and recuperate here. Your injury is not serious and will be cured soon. As for arresting the murderer  We will get it done within a few days.¡±

    After saying that, he and Rommel left here together.

    "So rude, so rude!" Mussolini continued to repeat these words. He originally wanted to ask about the German arrangements for North Africa and when the Italian army could take over Cairo and the German-occupied areas.  , but this skeleton baron didn¡¯t give him a chance to speak at all.

    At this time, in the car outside the hospital, Rommel said: "Ernst, I always feel that there is something weird about this assassination. Honestly, does this have anything to do with you?"

    "Erwin, Erwin." Wang Weiyi smiled: "You make me so sad. How could I do such a thing? I am an upright person. Poor Prime Minister, I hope he can recover soon."

    Rommel looked at his good friend in confusion, hoping to see some clues from his face, but unfortunately he couldn't see anything.

    Canlemu saw Mussolini being assassinated with his own eyes, and he was right next to Mussolini at the time.

    This is really terrible. The prime minister of a country was actually assassinated in Cairo. If he died, no one would be able to escape responsibility.

    He was worried not so much about the Italians as about the German reaction.  He knew exactly who had the final say in Cairo.

    Fortunately, the Germans didn¡¯t seem to have any overreaction.

    But Colonel Fels found him soon and asked directly: "Mr. Minister of Defense, there is a monastery in Cairo, right?"

    "Ah, yes." Kanlemu was startled, and then said: "That is the largest monastery in Cairo, so it is easy to recognize. What's the matter, Colonel Fels?"

    Colonel Fels did not answer immediately: "This monastery is said to be funded by Major General Tamousta?"

    "Yes." Kanlemu nodded: "And the abbot of the monastery has maintained a friendship with Tamusta for many years. Colonel, what happened?"

    "In a country that believes in Islam, it is really strange that a person who believes in Islam would fund a monastery." Colonel Fels said slowly: "Just now, we were here  An escaped British spy was captured in a monastery."

    Kanlemu was startled again, and then he seemed to understand something: "Colonel, do you think this has anything to do with Tammosta? No, I can guarantee that Tammosta will never harbor British spies.  You have no idea how much he hates the British.¡±

    "He also hates us Germans." Colonel Fels said calmly: "I don't want to believe Tammusta and this time.There is no connection between the two cases, but the British spy named Lawson Heaton has fully admitted it.  Tammusta assisted in his escape, and placed him in a monastery to wait until the suspicion of our capture had passed.  What is even more regrettable is that Tamousta has joined a British plan to overthrow the existing Egyptian government."

    Kanlemu didn¡¯t believe Tammusta would do such a thing at all.

    Indeed, Tammosta now has a big difference with himself. He is a big Egyptianist and refuses to cooperate with any foreign power. He will never come together with the British, and he will never want to overturn the current situation.  There is the Egyptian government.

    There is only one possibility. Tammusta¡¯s previous words and deeds have aroused the anger of the Germans, and the Germans are ready to take action against their former subordinate.

    "Colonel, I suggest that we investigate more carefully." Kanlemu decided to try his best to excuse Tamousta: "It's hard for me to believe that Tamousta would do such a thing."

    "No, no, Mr. Minister of Defense, what we are talking about now is not our problem, but your problem." Colonel Fels interrupted: "The Egyptian officer corps is loyal to Tammosta, not you.  . On the governance of Egypt, should we listen to you or to Tamousta? He has disagreed with you on many proposals, which has had a very bad impact and greatly weakened you.  prestige. We believe that if you want to become a great man in Egyptian history, you should not have so many opponents of your power."

    Kanlemu was silent

    Now Tamousta is no longer the colonel who was infinitely loyal to him before, and although he resigned as deputy chief of staff, he still has great influence in the Egyptian military.

    ¡°And after he resigned, judging from the intelligence obtained by Canlemu, the Egyptian officer corps often gathered at Tamousta¡¯s house to discuss the current situation in Egypt. This is a very dangerous thing.

    The mutiny against the British was not long in the past

    "We hope to get your cooperation, Mr. Secretary of Defense." Colonel Fells said confidently: "This is good for us and good for you. To be a great man, you shouldn't have so many worries."

    This is the second time he has said the word "great man"

    The greatest figure in the history of Egypt, since Marshal Ernst Brahm continued to instill this idea in him, Canlemu has been working hard in this direction.

    Now Colonel Firth's words aroused his heart again.

    ??Continue to protect Tammosta, or choose to do what the Germans told unconditionally, Kanlemu has to make the only choice

    He was silent there for a long time, and then slowly said: "Colonel, you can arrest Tamusta, but I hope you can treat him kindly and not harm his life, okay?"

    "It depends on him, Mr. Secretary of Defense." Fels smiled: "Ah, I heard that you may be the new candidate for prime minister, and I must congratulate you in advance. And I can reveal some information to you myself,  Once a new Prime Minister is elected, the position of Minister of Defense will be abolished and all powers will be in the hands of the Prime Minister.¡±

    Kanlemu¡¯s brows twitched, and uncontrollable ecstasy appeared on his face.

    The Germans¡¯ intention is very clear: to establish the position of prime minister as the de facto supreme ruler of Egypt, and Farouk I will only exist as a national symbol.

    Canlemu really wants to get this position, but to achieve this goal he absolutely cannot do without the support of the Germans, and now Colonel Fels has clearly conveyed such a message:

    As long as he cooperates with the Germans, Canlemo will be the Prime Minister of Egypt!

    Kanlemu decided not to hesitate any longer: "Colonel, thank you very much for your timely report. I think if I can really become the Prime Minister of Egypt, I will do my best. Regarding Egypt's dispatch of 200,000 troops, I will  The order will be implemented immediately. At the same time, Egypt will also make every effort to support the Axis Powers in achieving the final victory of the war in accordance with the secret agreement with Germany!¡±

    "Look, the cooperation between us is so pleasant." Colonel Fels said calmly: "Actually, it doesn't matter. I am an American, and my destiny depends on whether Germany can win the war. You are an Egyptian  Man, your fate also depends on whether Germany can win the war, so we must support Germany unconditionally. Only in this way can we protect ourselves and get what we want."

    Kanlemu nodded.

    The fact that our orders are entirely based on whether Germany can win the war gets to the core of the problem.

    Kanlemu straightened his lipsHe dressed up and said loudly:

    "Colonel, let me go to Tammosta with you. I think I can barely control the further deterioration of the situation." (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
