Chapter 790： The British "perfect strategy" (2/2)

Mahdi remedied: ”My lieutenant colonel, I have no doubt what you mean. It is just a matter of great importance, and we have to be careful, please forgive me.”

With a sneer, Hutil sarcastically said, ”Of course, I fully understand your approach.

This kind of thing, anyone will keep a foreigner confidential. After all, outsiders are unreliable, what if we run to tell the French? ”

Seeing that the atmosphere was more tense, Mahdi realized the danger. He's not ignorant, he knows the power of the French.

This is the African continent. The British have a limited right to speak and are simply unable to fight the French. Without Austria's support, their desire for independence is a joke.

Explain patiently: ”My Excellency has misunderstood, I have no doubt what you mean. If you want to know, you can refer to our next military meeting.”

He really did not doubt that Austria would go to inform. In Mahdi's view, the reliability of the British and Austrian representatives on this issue is higher than the high-level inside the rebel army.

The fact that these people can drive here has already stated the positions of the two governments, and telling them is treason.

If the French can counter the British and Austrian delegations, it will not be a matter of African independence, but the three countries of Britain, France and Austria will be on the front line.

The great powers are also face-saving. The French cannot accept this idea of ​​interfering in their own internal affairs, and the British Olympics also cannot accept the practice of French spying in their own homes.

If this happened, Mahdi would wake up laughing. When the powers worked, the French ignored them.

In fact, Mahdi welcomed the representatives of Britain and Austria with great fanfare. In addition to military assistance, it was more for the sake of showing his staff.

There have always been problems with the internal organization structure of the insurgent army, and the various systems are incomplete. The key to maintaining the insurgents is mainly Mahdi's personal charm.

This is obviously not enough. Human loyalty cannot stand the test. Once something goes wrong on the battlefield, the rebels may fall apart at any time.

If you want to reorganize the rebels, it will not be possible in the short term, and the French will not allow them so much time.

It is necessary to introduce foreign forces. Both Britain and Austria have thick thighs. The support of these two countries will undoubtedly greatly increase the confidence of their people.

At present, the effect is very significant. Since the arrival of the British and Austrian delegations, the hearts of the insurgents have quickly stabilized.

Those guys who were erratic and ready to join the French, have now stopped their steps.

Being able to build an independent nation, no one wants to be enslaved.

After all, the colonial rule these years is really brutal. In front of the colonists, the big men in these places may move their heads at any time.

No one wants to continue in the days when it is impossible. Seeing hope, everyone is still willing to let go.

After listening to this explanation, Huthir's expression was slightly relieved, but he still did not give Mahdi a good look.

”No need, General. I have no interest in your plans, only to join because we have a common enemy.

You have been to continental Europe and you should know that we and the French are in a feud. We are happy to do things that can bother the enemy. ”

There wasn't any friendship, it was too unreliable.

After the rise of the Habsburg dynasty, the Sultan was the site of the Ottoman Empire, and stood directly on the opposite side, naturally there was no friendship.

Rather than friendship, hatred can bring the two sides closer together. Anyone who knows European history knows how the “Fau” feud came.

The two countries have been in pk for hundreds of years and are still in confrontation. Before the battle for continental hegemony was completely separated, both France and Austria gave each other an incentive to stab the knife.

The insurgents wanted to overthrow the French, and they also stood on the opposite side of France. With a common enemy, both sides have the conditions to move closer.

Speaking of which, Mahdi has understood Hutil's intentions, but this is within his bottom line.

Mahdi echoed: ”Yes, it is to kill our common enemy.

It is just the Colonel, we have encountered a little trouble and need your help.

You know that the insurgent army has just been established, and the internal organizational structure is too late to complete, especially the lack of sufficient outstanding officers.

I know that your Excellency is a senior student at the Austrian Army University. I would like to ask you to help train the eighth division and temporarily act as the eighth division commander. ”

After a pause, Mahdi added: ”The eighth division is a new unit, and there is a lack of weapons and equipment, so ...”

The total number of nominally insurgents has exceeded 100,000, and eight infantry divisions have also been compiled with reference to European countries. In fact, Mahdi's first division was actually seen by blood.

The rest of the troops were composed of insurgents who successively rushed in behind, with intricate composition.

The Eighth Division is the newly formed unit. Its combat effectiveness is the lowest among all the insurgents, and its equipment is even worse.

There are more than 9,000 people in the whole division, which together add up to only 800 rifles. Now thrown to the Austrians, even the eight hundred rifles Mahdi is ready to retrieve.

No way, the rebels are too short of weapons. The British and Austrian support is not false, but unfortunately the British and Austrian weapons and equipment were not brought by the gale.

Until the results are seen, investment in both countries is very limited.

The British provided 7,500 rifles, 300 pistols, five field artillery + several ammunition, barely enough to equip an infantry division.

Austria's aid is similar to that of the British. The combined military assistance of the two countries is enough for two infantry divisions, and the rest must find their own solutions.

Until the battlefield proves itself, it will be difficult for the insurgents to obtain larger-scale assistance.

Mahdi threw the eighth division to Huthil and was actually forced to helplessly. How can a ten-man army without a gun enter the battlefield?

In Mahdi's view, the Austrian army wanted to be on the battlefield. It was just these restless young people who wanted to prove their ability on the battlefield and to obtain the capital for promotion.

Since these people want to score on the battlefield, they must first solve the eighth division's weaponry.

Even if these people are embroidered pillows, they are not useful on the battlefield, he can pick up some weapons and equipment in vain.

If the Austrian could train the eighth division, he would only be happier.

The French counterattack is coming, and Mahdi will not give up any opportunity to increase his strength.

As for the troubles that need to be faced in the future, that is what happened after driving out the French. If it fails, there is no future.

”Happy to help! We can find solutions to the problem of equipment.”

After a little thought, Hutil agreed decisively. Not just weapons and equipment, that's all a minor problem.

Everyone has a quota in hand, just one infantry division, it doesn't need much weapons at all.

It is not easy to have a chance to practice hands-on practice. It is nothing to pay for some retired weapons and equipment.
