Expedition to Europe

How much Mustafa hates Rebus can be seen from Mustafa's attitude towards Rebus when he first arrived at the Mobil Oil Field.

Unlike Rebus, who was only an employee of the Basel Oil Development Company, Mustafa was not only an employee serving Prince Basel, but also a slave of Prince Basel, which made Mustafa more concerned about Prince Basel's property.

If Prince Basel had no money, all Rebus had to do was to switch from one company to another, and Rebus could still maintain his life, but Mustafa was different. If Prince Basel had no money, Mustafa would still be unlucky.

So on the issue of the Mobil Oil Field, Mustafa and Rebus had completely different views.

For Rebus, this was just a job, but for Mustafa, this was the meaning of their existence as slaves of Prince Basel.

Just as Mustafa was hanging Rebus up, Jack, the former "Angel", was doing the same thing in Port Hedland, thousands of kilometers away from the Mobil Oil Field.

Western Australia finally couldn't stand the unruliness of Port Hedland and chose to use force to take back Port Hedland. To this end, the Western Australian government organized a national guard of about 5,000 people to prepare to attack Port Hedland by sea.

The Australian government expressed understanding of the choice of the Western Australian government, but at the same time, the Australian government also stated that this is the internal affairs of Western Australia and the Australian government will not interfere. The Australian government will keep a close eye on this matter.

It sounds strange that there was a civil war in Australia and the Australian government stood aside. This is a bit absurd, but this is the fact. The Australian government only stated that it would not let the war spread to the neighboring northern region and South Australia, and did not have the idea of ​​interfering too much.

Australia's politics are also complicated enough. It is a parliamentary constitutional monarchy within the Commonwealth. The nominal head of state of Australia is the prime minister, but in addition to the prime minister, there is also a governor stationed in Australia by the British. Relatively speaking, the governor has more power than the prime minister, but the governor rarely expresses his views on specific matters, so Australia is now the prime minister.

The war in Western Australia is a civil war, which has been determined by the Australian government. Since it is an internal conflict among the people, it is not easy for the Australian government to intervene. Anyway, no matter whether Perth wins or Port Hedland wins, the taxes owed to the Australian government will not be reduced.

Although Port Hedland has strong economic strength, many people are not optimistic about Port Hedland. In any case, Perth occupies a political height and represents 500,000 Australians in Western Australia. Port Hedland has already fallen behind in terms of righteousness, and it is understandable that it is not optimistic.

Only a few people know the war potential of Port Hedland, such as Timothy, a city councilor, but Timothy is still weak in the attacks of many opponents. Timothy did make efforts to stop the war, but Timothy could not change the overall situation after all.

Of course, Timothy also expressed his protest in his own way. When the fleet to Port Hedland departed from Port Perth, Timothy resigned from the Perth City Council, and left the council hall with his head held high amid the ridicule of many people, and began his own hibernation.

Although Port Hedland is thousands of kilometers away from Perth, Jack soon received a report on what happened in Perth, so Jack immediately responded.

The first measure, of course, is to clean up those agents who have been monitored or imprisoned.

With the war imminent, it is still necessary to purify the team so that we can work together to deal with the Perth expeditionary force that is about to arrive in Port Hedland.

In the minds of many people in Perth, Port Hedland is a wild place. There are no basic government agencies here. Basically, Jack has the final say on everything. There is no police station, no court, and no jury. Naturally, there is no need for a court trial to announce the death penalty for some people.

Yes, it is the death penalty. Jack's attitude towards these agents is still firm. As long as they are caught, whether they plead guilty or not, they will be hanged on the dock.

This method of execution was originally used by Europeans to deal with pirates. Now it is not at all inconsistent for Jack, a former farmer, to use it.

Of course, not everyone pleaded guilty. Facing the upcoming death penalty, the agents showed different reactions. Some prayed, some cursed, and some cried bitterly. However, this could not change their fate. Even if they performed more fiercely, they lacked an audience.

The pre-war immigration work has been completed. At present, Port Hedland is a pure military fortress. There are no civilians at all, so naturally not many people sympathize with these agents.

Looking at the row of hundreds of crosses on the dock, all of which were hung with people, Jack's mood was inevitably a little depressed: "I really don't know if we are right or wrong to do this. I have a hunch that we will definitely go to hell, and the Lord will not forgive us."

Although Jack is used to being the "governor" in Port Hedland, he is not a murderer after all. Seeing so many people being hanged because of his decision, it is understandable that Jack's mood fluctuates.

"That's hard to say. We did kill a lot of people, but we also saved a lot of people and did a lot of good things. Maybe the Lord will give us a break." Chen Zhaoqiang didn't have much emotion and his expression was still as cold as ever.

The Chinese of this era do not believe in atheism. Whether it is the Chinese tradition or the religion introduced from the West, there is a cycle of life and death. On the one hand, people are not so afraid of death, and on the other hand, they will be restrained and will not fall into madness completely.

Like many other Chinese, Chen Zhaoqiang is not a devout believer, and he will not mention the "Lord" when doing things. Chen Zhaoqiang has his own sense of right and wrong. When it is time to establish authority, Chen Zhaoqiang will never be soft-handed. If you kill someone, you will go to hell. All the soldiers in this world will go to hell, so Chen Zhaoqiang is not worried. Even if he goes to hell, Chen Zhaoqiang will not be missing his companions.

"We should hang these people before they withdraw. At least we can warn them and let them know the consequences of betraying us." Jack was not very depressed and quickly adjusted his mentality.

The "those people" Jack said refer to ordinary residents who have already withdrawn. Since he is going to be ruthless, he must maximize the benefits.

The word "betrayal" is really not appropriate. Many of the people who were hanged now came to Port Hedland with special purposes. Since they have never been loyal, there is no question of betrayal.

"It's not necessary. The most important thing now is to defeat those Pers people. As long as we can win the war, we can gain loyalty. Otherwise, even if we have the greatest loyalty of those people, it will not be of much use." Chen Zhaoqiang saw it clearly, so he was naturally confident when he spoke.

Loyalty, after all, still depends on one's own strength to fight for it. Only those with strength can deserve the loyalty of others.

"Sir, the fleet of the Pers expeditionary force has arrived at the sea 200 nautical miles away. They have no defense. The submarine force requests to launch an attack." A staff officer in military uniform hurried over.

It's a very strange situation. Whether it's the expeditionary force in Pers City or the resistance force in Port Hedland, their uniforms are all Australian **** Guard uniforms, which further confirms the saying that this is a "civil war".

Qin Zhiyuan still gave Port Hedland enough support. Currently, Port Hedland has a submarine force of 20 submarines, including not only the old submarines used by the Lan Fang Army during the Foreign Legion period, but also the latest model produced by the Jinlan Bay Shipyard - the "Swordfish" submarine.

Compared with the old submarines, the "Swordfish" submarine has a more powerful engine, which means it has a larger combat range, and also has more ammunition and stronger combat capabilities.

The Lan Fang Army is currently undergoing a large-scale replacement, and some of the replaced submarines have been transferred to Port Hedland, of course, together with the combatants on the submarines.

After receiving the news that the Perth Expeditionary Force had set off, Chen Zhaoqiang immediately released all the submarines and waited on the only way from Perth to Port Hedland in order to obtain accurate information.

The submarines in Port Hedland are equipped with the latest radio transmitters, so the commander of the submarine force does not have the right to initiate a battle. Therefore, even if the commander of the submarine force finds a fighter plane, he must first ask Port Hedland for instructions before deciding whether to attack.

"Don't launch an attack. If you beat all those ships into the sea now, it will be a big loss. Tell Mark to be patient. There is a chance for them to show off." Chen Zhaoqiang has a big appetite, mainly because he doesn't want to waste those ships.

So far, it is still a secret that Port Hedland has submarines. The Perth City Government is not aware of it, so the Perth Expeditionary Force has no defense. If an attack is launched now, it will scare those expeditionary forces. Chen Zhaoqiang does not want to defeat the Perth Expeditionary Force, but to annihilate them as much as possible.

"Yes, sir." The staff officer stood at attention and saluted, and hurried to the mobile command vehicle.

That's right, Port Hedland now even has mobile command vehicles. These vehicles are from Lan Fang, equipped with wireless telegraph systems and generators. They are the most advanced professional vehicles now.

"It looks like it's about to start." Jack took a deep breath, and it seems that his temperament is not as calm as he looks.

"Yes, it's about to start, so you'd better leave now and come back in a few days. It won't take too long." Chen Zhaoqiang is confident.

He is indeed confident. If Heidelan Port, which has submarine forces and aviation forces, can't beat a group of defenseless "militia", then Chen Zhaoqiang's former colleagues will laugh their heads off.
