981 The sky fell and there was a tall man on top

According to the agreement, the next day was the day of the exchange of William and Wolff, but because Wolf had fled, the exchange was forced to end.

After contacting the Los Angeles headquarters through the telegraph room of the Rhodesia Hotel, O'Connor prepared to escort William back to Los Angeles, but by this time the London Military Intelligence Agency had mobilized the Cairo garrison to take control of the Rhodesia Hotel, and O'Connor was not allowed to take William away from the Rhodesia Hotel.

"Agents of the London Military Intelligence Agency checked everyone who entered and exited the Rhodesia Hotel, and the same was true for the vehicles, did you see the military vehicles across the road? If we take William out of the hotel now, there may be a clash with the LMA, but we are sure to be safe in the hotel, and the LCA agents are not afraid to storm the hotel. Robert, the local head of Brad's office in Cairo, had a sad face, and through the spacious floor-to-ceiling windows of his suite, he could clearly see the military truck across from the hotel.

There are also military trucks produced in Nyasaland.

Just downstairs at the Rhodesia Hotel, there are about dozens of agents of the London Military Intelligence Agency, who are inspecting the guests and vehicles entering and leaving the Rhodesia Hotel.

Wolfe's escape caused the London Military Intelligence Agency to lose face, and O'Connor got the news that the head of the London Military Intelligence Agency in Cairo vowed to find Wolf even if all the Nile water was drained, whether he lived or died.

"Where is Wolf now?" O'Connor was still concerned about Wolfe's whereabouts, and like William, who didn't have time to send the information, Wolf had no chance to send the information back to Nyasaland, and finding Wolf was the last hope to get the technology related to Parsons' steam turbines.

"I don't know, we're looking for it with all our might, but we're understaffed, the London Military Intelligence Agency has mobilized the Cairo garrison and is conducting a dragnet search along the Nile, God willing-" Robert didn't know much about the situation, and now everyone is praying for Wolfe, hoping that Wolf won't have any accidents, and he doesn't want Wolf to be found by the London Military Intelligence Agency.

"We've got to increase our manpower to prevent these shit days from rushing in and stealing people." O'Connor thought a lot, there were only a dozen operatives in Brad's office in Cairo, and the team led by O'Connor was less than 20 people, so it was really not enough for such a few people to look at the garrison in Cairo.

"It doesn't matter, the London Military Intelligence Agency doesn't have the guts to storm the Rhodesia Hotel." Robert's words more or less reassured O'Connor, during the World War, the British government was knighted in southern Africa, using titles to envelop the elite class in southern Africa, and the number of nobles in southern Africa surged for a time, which once led to Ade sending a telegram to Winston, hoping that Winston would stop using this method and artificially create a special class in southern Africa.

As the top magnate in southern Africa, Xiao Si must be among the British government's wooing, and when Cecil Rhodes was alive before, the British government was worried that Cecil Rhodes would not lose his tail, and he did not knight Cecil Rhodes until his death.

Now that Cecil Rhodes died, Southern Africa had changed from a British colony to a British Overseas Dominion, and it had shown an increasingly important value during the World Wars, and the British government's influence in southern Africa was waning, so the British government had to use knighthood to increase the influence of the British Empire in southern Africa.

For the British government, knighthood can indeed achieve the goal, but the expansion of the aristocratic class will inevitably lead to a gradual decrease in the value of the nobility, and in the long run, the gains outweigh the losses.

Xiao Si's current title is Viscount Rhodesia, and the Rhodesia Hotel is Xiao Si's property, and the London Military Intelligence Agency really doesn't have the courage to attack.

"Then let's consume it, and see who can consume whom." O'Connor can only wait, now to see if Wolf can escape the pursuit of the London Military Intelligence Agency, as long as Wolf can escape smoothly, then the current dilemma will be solved.

While O'Connor and Robert were trapped in the hotel, the transport ship Brave, part of the Southern African Ministry of Defence, was traveling from Cairo to British Somalia to deliver supplies to the Southern African army that was quelling the insurgency in Somalia.

After the end of the World War, Roque was ordered to quell the ongoing rebellion in British Somalia, this task was a bit low-level, Roque gave the task to Don Juan, the commander of the 2nd Cavalry Division, and left Angel in British Somalia for training.

The Second Cavalry Division did not taste defeat against the Germans on the Western Front during the World War, and it was really a knife to deal with the rebels in British Somalia, and now the rebellion in British Somalia has not been completely quelled, but it has also come to an end, after a large number of rebels were eliminated by the Second Cavalry Division, the remaining rebels fled into Italian Somalia and did not dare to stay in British Somalia.

Interestingly, the warship that intercepted the "Valiant" was stationed in Alexandria, which was part of the Mediterranean Expeditionary Force during the World War, and had worked closely with the Mediterranean Expeditionary Force, which was mainly the Southern African Expeditionary Force.

A squad of British sailors, led by a captain, boarded the "Brave" for inspection.

Captain Chrisman of the Brave, at the request of the captain, ordered all crew members to assemble on deck and be inspected by British sailors.

The Brave was a 3,000-ton transport ship with 25 sailors on board, and the captain carefully checked the list provided by Chrisman and found nothing wrong.

"Yes, everyone is here, even the cats on the ship have been checked by you, Mr. Captain, is there any problem?" Chrisman looked furious, this kind of thing had never happened before, as long as it was a ship in southern Africa, it would be unimpeded in any ocean in the world.

In these years, there were many mice on board, especially ocean carriers, so it was a tradition to keep cats on board, and the "Brave" had four cats, and the sailors checked them very carefully, even the sex of the cats.

"Open the warehouse, we're going to inspect the warehouse." The captain asks a lot, such a big ship, it is not too simple to hide one person, the right number of people does not mean that there is no problem.

"Open all the warehouses? Are you sure? Chrisman was surprised, the "Brave" is a container carrier, there are nearly fifty containers on board, which has to be checked one by one, not to mention the delay, in case of an accident, who is it?

Don't overestimate the moral level of these British sailors, the descendants of the pirates have no moral level to speak of, and it is a small problem to take the sheep during the inspection, and some of them will even estimate that they will do some sabotage, the purpose is to extort.

"Yes, open all the holds." The captain looked arrogant and repeated the order word by word.

In fact, no one can say anyone, some time ago, the southern African army was still in the outer harbor of Berbera to go on a rampage, and the appearance is not inferior to the British Royal Navy.

Wellโ€”

The Southern African Navy is also the British Navy, so it's all normal operations, don't be surprised.

"Mr. Captain, I have gathered all the crew members for your inspection according to your request, don't go too far, our ship is loaded with military supplies destined for Berbera, all the cargo lists are here, and they have been inspected by the Cairo Port Authority when they leave the port, what do you mean by this? Is it deliberately embarrassing us? Chrisman waved his little fat hand and shouted, everyone is working for the British Empire, and the Royal Navy is nothing remarkable.

During the World War, the Southern African Expeditionary Force completely played a prestige in Europe, and before the world war, Chrisman could only cooperate honestly, and he could not express any grievances.

Now it's different, after the end of the world war, the confidence of southern Africans has directly raised a notch, and in the face of the unreasonable demands of the British Royal Navy, Chrisman also dares to fight on the basis of reason, and it is no longer the previous man who is a knife and I am a fish.

"No one deliberately embarrasses you, I'm on official business, you just need to cooperate!" The captain's face was also ugly, if it had been changed to a transport ship of other nationalities, the captain would have obediently sent a gift and let the captain take what he wanted.

The ships of southern Africa are now very horizontal, not to mention the benefits, even the cigarettes, not only the captain, but also the other sailors are also very dissatisfied, but they are helpless.

After the end of the World War, John Drobeck, deputy commander of the Far Mediterranean Fleet, succeeded John Fisher as commander of the Mediterranean Fleet, and during the World War, John Drobeck also fought side by side with Roque, and his personal relationship with Roque was not bad, so the ships of Southern Africa had the same privileges in the Mediterranean as the British mainland ships, and they were not very respectful to the Royal Navy.

"Honestly, Mr. Captain, are you looking for something?" Chrisman was curious, the Royal Navy had never been like this before.

The captain's expression was serious, and he still said one word: "This is not something you should understand. โ€

Not really, Chrisman agreed to open the hold for inspection, but he did not forget to say harshly, claiming that the Royal Navy was responsible for the consequences.

The captain did not budge, the crew opened the container, and the sailors checked it one by one.

Most of the containers contained food and daily necessities, and a few of the containers were special, full of weapons and ammunition, with seals from the Ministry of Defence of Southern Africa.

"I'm sorry Captain, we don't have the authority to open these containers, if you must open them, please do it yourself." Chrisman stood by and watched, and the seal of the Ministry of Defense of Southern Africa was legally responsible for destroying it without permission.

"Open!" The captain is not afraid, even if he breaks the seal of the Ministry of Defense of Southern Africa, the Ministry of Defense of Southern Africa will go to the Royal Navy to hold him responsible, and it will not be his turn to be responsible.

When the sky fell, there was a tall one on top.
