Chapter 792： Very low expectations (2/2)

Lieutenant Colonel Huttier, the representative of Austria, also attended a meeting. After seeing the ugly state of the insurgents, he resolutely refused to participate.

The newly-introduced commander of the Eighth Division Commander, Hutir, said with anxiety: ”The composition of the insurgent army is too complicated, and there are a lot of internal contradictions. Neither training nor combat awareness is sufficient.

Judging from the current situation, it is only a matter of time before the French collide with them.

The perfect strategy that the British helped them to completely ignored the execution of the rebels. It's been this long, and it hasn't been determined where to intercept the river.

Now a bunch of people are still arguing. It is estimated that when the French come over, they may not be able to determine the place. ”

The amount of water on the Nile is not as big as it is throughout the year. In the dry season, intercepting the impoundment of the river to impact the downstream, it is impossible to achieve the effect.

It's a pity that it has just entered April, and the Nile River is in dry season from January to May. The water level will start to rise in May at the earliest, and August will be the peak.

This means that the insurgents must at least support the French attack for more than 40 days, and the ”perfect strategy” formulated by the British can only be realized.

It is best to wait until August if you want to use the flood to destroy the delta area downstream.

Floods occur in the lower reaches of August every year, and the destruction of farmland is a common occurrence, and it even occasionally affects Cairo.

Fackingham: ”The British plan simply doesn't work, the French don't leave them enough time.

If Mahdi is smart enough, immediately choose the right place to blow up a small mountain peak and block the river.

Although it is a dry season, its destructive power to the downstream is limited, but it is stronger than nothing, and it can stagnate the French rebel army. ”

The upper reaches themselves occupy the geographical position. Once the river is blocked, the French who are coming must have to detour.

If they continued marching along the Nile, in case the rebels suddenly became waterproof, they would have to feed the fish, and the French could not take risks.

But once the plan is advanced, the destruction of the delta becomes a dream. After all, there is not enough water and the destructive power is limited.

Hutil shook his head: ”No need to count, the rebels have been stupid by the British.

Perhaps the lieutenant General Jarrett thought that the insurgents could, like the British army, be able to ban orders. ”

The strong sense of contempt overflowed in words, if it was not possible to determine that the identity of Lieutenant General Gerrett could not betray Britain, he would doubt whether it was a spy sent by the French.

It seems that the total strength of the rebels is nearly 100,000, almost three times that of the French, and it has an absolute strength advantage.

However, military strength does not mean victory. In the fight against the colonial rebellion, let alone one enemy and three, even one enemy, is nothing new.

Portiorec suggested: ”Since the high-ranking of the insurgents are already stupid, leave them alone.

Find a chance to be separated from them. Then we beat each other and let them drag the main force of the French army, and we went into the hinterland of Egypt to destroy it.

Can't win the main force of the French army, can we still bully the plantation owner? Burn the French cotton and let Adolph's cry. ”

Expectations are so low, despite the airdropped a batch of equipment, armed the eighth division, and conducted simple training. Portiorec still had no expectations of a decisive battle with the French.

In his opinion, even bullying the plantation owner depends on military strength. With the same number of people, these gangs of Wuhe people can't do enough plantation to raise thugs.

Fakkingham frowned and asked, ”It sounds good, but how do we evacuate after entering the hinterland of Egypt?”

This is a realistic problem. It is easy to go deep into the enemy line, but it is easy to enter and difficult to come out.

Once the French found out that someone had burned their cotton land, it wasn't dead.

Portiorec shook his head: ”The French are not fools. When they react, they will soon send troops to surround us. Evacuation is simply impossible.

But our mission is to do destruction, why must we evacuate?

Bring the troops into chaos and throw them away when the momentum is not right. Let's disguise ourselves and run. ”

Although a bit spicy, the feasibility is indeed very high. There were no ID cards these years, and a few strangers in the colony came out and could not identify them at all.

Even if it was caught by the French, it could still be posing as an Austrian expedition and strayed into Egypt.

The world has never been short of idiots, and every year there are many expeditions that stray into the colonies of other countries.

It was okay to be caught, nothing more than to inform the leader of the Austrian colonial government, and by the way ask for a ransom.

This is a common practice, and without conflicts of interest, colonists will not kill people at will.
