Taichang couldn't help smiling when he saw the information sent back from Atlanta.

It seems that these defenders of the Ottoman Empire have been in peace for a long time, and I don't know how the word "death" was written.

The defense of an important town like Cairo is so lax, they are looking for death!

The [-] defenders defending the fortified city that has been operating for hundreds of years seems to be unbreakable, that is for the enemy attacking from the outside.

If they could sneak into the city with weapons and sneak attack at night, tens of thousands of people would be enough to break the fortified city.

Taichang stared at the map for a while, and then said decisively: "Decree, order Sun Quan and Chang'an to come and see."

After a while, Sun Quan and Qi Changan came hand in hand.

After paying respects to the monarchs and ministers, Taichang solemnly said: "I can't come to the front line to command this sneak attack on Cairo in person. You two have worked hard to convey the specific tactics for me."

Sun Quan and Qi Chang'an heard the words, quickly cupped their hands and said: "I understand."

Taichang nodded slightly, then pointed to the map and said, "Young Tang, you should go to Lisbon to find Wang Chong on loan first, and ask him to call Desilao over to help you pretend to be a merchant in Cairo.

After you received Desilau, you ordered two hundred armed merchant ships there, hung the French flag, and went to Ceuta to pick up people. "

Armed merchant ships flying French flags?

When Sun Quan heard this, he couldn't help asking: "Your Majesty, won't this be a flaw? The armed merchant ships built by the European Union seem to be a little different from ours."

Taichang said indifferently: "It's nothing, the sea is so wide anyway, you just need to stagger about ten miles away from other fleets, if they dare to approach, you can fire warnings!
These days, it is not uncommon for an armed merchant ship to suddenly become a pirate. If you fire a few shots casually, they will not dare to come and die. "

He had thought about this a long time ago. If the Flying Dragon warship sailed into the Mediterranean Sea, it would be inappropriate. Once people saw it, they would definitely know it was Daming's fleet.

Armed merchant ships are different.

Anyway, the Continental Continental Union also has armed merchant ships, and all countries in the Continental Continent are at odds with each other. When they meet at sea, it's normal for black and white to eat black.

That's why he decided to mobilize some armed merchant ships to help the Black God Army transfer personnel and supplies.

When Sun Quan heard this, he hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "I understand."

Taichang nodded slightly, then pointed to the map and said: "Chang'an, you go to Ceuta first, let Zuma dispatch one hundred thousand elites, bring cold weapons, muskets and war horses, and prepare to help Atlanta capture Cairo.

In addition, you asked Zuma to prepare the 50 Berber recruits and 100 million chariots who participated in the attack on the southwest line of Ceuta in East Africa. I will send armed merchant ships to pick them up in batches to Egypt. "

Hearing this, Qi Changan quickly cupped his hands and said, "I understand."

Taichang then said solemnly: "This sneak attack on Cairo is actually not difficult, because the Black God Army can completely pretend to be local Berbers and sneak into the city, and it is also very easy to transport weapons and equipment into the city.

However, you can't be careless.

Shaotang, after you received [-] elite Black Gods in Ceuta, you took them directly to Egypt.

Be careful, you don't go directly into the Nile River, it's easy to be exposed, you go to the temporary pier that was built earlier.

That temporary pier seems to be quite secretive, and it's not very far from Atlantis' stronghold.

You directly lead one hundred thousand elite black gods to land here, cross the Gobi, and ride your horse to join Atlantis.

When the time comes, you will let Atlantis lead his personal guards and 9 Black God Army elites to sneak into the city first, and you will set off with the remaining [-] horses when night falls.

Anyway, it's all plains over there, so it won't be a problem for you to walk slowly to the north of Cairo City.

As for the sneak attack at night, you ask Atlantis to arrange people to set fire to the south, east and west of the city first, and then take the city gate to the north in one fell swoop.

Then, you directly lead the army into the city and cooperate with Atlanta to take down the city wall and all the barracks.

I will send thousands of armed merchant ships with 50 troops to follow you.

As long as you take Cairo City, these merchant ships can directly arrive at the port north of Cairo City from the main trunk of the Nile River. "

When Sun Quan heard this, he quickly cupped his hands and said, "I understand."

Taichang said to Qi Chang'an again: "Chang'an, you lead the second batch of 50 people to support.

In addition, you told Hong Kui to let him lead the West African Navy's Spike warships to follow you.

Once you take Cairo, he must block all the waterways at the mouth of the Nile, and absolutely not let the coalition forces of France, Tsarist Russia, and the Ottoman Empire run away. "

Qi Changan hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "I understand."

This time the Mediterranean is very lively. Armed merchant ships flying the French flag are heading towards the Nile River in batches. Each batch is about [-] ships. The long fleet looks really spectacular.

With so many armed merchant ships suddenly appearing in France, other countries will naturally be suspicious.

The problem is that these fleets are very overbearing, and they don't allow people to approach them at all. Whoever dares to approach them will be served by artillery, so that people can only run away in a hurry.

If they do this, it will definitely not last long. No matter how stupid the European countries are, they will find something is wrong.

However, even if people find something is wrong, it is actually nothing.

Because the communication speed is still very slow at the moment, especially the land communication, even if the European countries find something is wrong and go to France to confirm, it will take at least half a month to travel from the Mediterranean coast to Paris.

It will be at least more than a month before the French come to trouble these merchant ships after confirmation.

Including the French themselves, after discovering something was wrong, they had to go to Paris to consult with the Duke of Richelieu before they could take action, and it took more than a month to go back and forth.

And more than a month is enough for the Black God Army to take Cairo City.

Atlanta didn't expect Taichang to do this.

On this day, he had just finished working at the port wharf with his elite team before rushing back to the stronghold, a personal guard hurried up to greet him and said excitedly, "Your Majesty, our reinforcements have arrived."

reinforcements?

It seems that he hasn't called reinforcements yet!
The letter he sent back last time was urging Zuma to send him the person pretending to be a vendor as soon as possible.

After all, it was not so easy to pretend to be a merchant. After all, there must be a boat and enough goods, otherwise, their weapons and equipment would not be able to be sent into the city among the goods.

These all take time to prepare, and those who pretend to be traders have to be familiar with the situation here.

He originally wanted to let Zuma send reinforcements after everything was prepared. After all, once the reinforcements came, there would be at least tens of thousands, and there would be no time to hide.

Why did Zuma send reinforcements to him directly?

He walked through the surrounding slums and thatched houses, and ran to the center of the tribe to have a look.

My God, the gaps between the tents were filled with the troops of the Black God Army, and the piles of Black God Army soldiers directly extended to the Gobi Desert behind the tribe.

How many reinforcements have come here?
There is no way to hide so many reinforcements!

He was standing there in a daze, when Sun Quan came up to him and cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, long time no see."

Atlanta couldn't help but wondered: "Master Sun, why are you here?"

Sun Quan straightened his face immediately, and said solemnly: "I am ordered by the emperor to help you capture Cairo City."

Uh, take Cairo?

Atlanta froze for a moment, then asked again: "Does the emperor mean that we act as soon as possible?"

Sun Quan said without hesitation: "Yes, the emperor means that we will act tomorrow."

what?
Atlanta couldn't help being dumbfounded and said: "Well, the person pretending to be a merchant hasn't arrived yet. How can we bring weapons into the city? Are we going to attack directly?"

Sun Quan smiled slightly and said: "Don't worry, we have already arranged this. Tomorrow morning, Desilao will take a boatload of flour to the port north of Cairo City, and [-] sets of black iron knives and black iron armor will also be ready." Already packed in a flour bag.

There are also things needed for the sneak attack. We have prepared them all. When the time comes, you can rent a hundred or so carriages for him and take them directly to the city. "

After hearing the words, Atlanta still said in a daze: "Desilau?

Desilau under Count Desierra? "

Sun Quan nodded slightly and said, "Yes, it's Desilau, Count Desierra's subordinate. He was originally a merchant and has been doing business in Spain for the past few years. There must be nothing wrong with pretending to be a merchant."

Problem, I haven't figured it out yet.

Atlanta then asked: "Why eleven thousand sets of equipment, I only have more than 1000 people in total!"

Sun Quan explained unhurriedly: "I have selected the remaining [-] elites for you. Tomorrow morning, you order your subordinates to take them into the city in batches to find a place to lie down.

Tomorrow night you will do it, first order people to set fire to the east, south and west of the city, and then take down the north gate in one fell swoop.

I am waiting outside with [-] cavalry. As soon as you open the city gate, I will lead the army to rush in and take down the city wall and all the barracks. "

Do it tomorrow night!
Atlantis really can't change her mind for a while.

Seeing this, Sun Quan could only pull him to explain the whole action plan in detail.

In the early morning of the next day, Atlantis took two hundred people to the port terminal north of Cairo City, and his personal guards took a dozen or so Black God Army elites and spread them out from all directions. Mixed into the city of Cairo in batches.

They have also been in the port for more than a month, and they are familiar with the coolies here.

Because they work hard and the asking price is not high, many traders also like to hire them to work.

However, they didn't take any jobs that day. When a trader came to hire them, they all agreed that someone had already paid for them, and they couldn't take other jobs today.

They waited and waited for a long time. At noon, an armed merchant ship with the French flag finally arrived at the port pier.

At this moment, the entire port pier resounded with a buzzing sound.

Everyone was surprised, because this is a warship!
The European Continental Union uses this kind of ship as a warship, and merchant ships are generally sailing ships.

Moreover, the warships of the Continental Union do not seem to be so well made, nor are they so beautiful in appearance.

This sudden appearance of a warship that has never been seen before, everyone is naturally surprised.

Atlanta was also surprised.

He really didn't expect that Desilau would run over directly in an armed merchant ship.

Is it useful to fly the flag of France?

He could tell at a glance that this was clearly an armed merchant ship of the Ming Empire!

Fortunately, the people on the pier were just surprised. They had never seen the armed merchant ships of the Ming Empire, and they only knew the French flag.

At this moment, people on the pier were discussing with surprise on their faces, but no one stepped forward to grab the business.

Seeing this, Atlanta quickly called hundreds of his men to surround him.

It is really unnecessary for Desilau to pretend to be a trader. After the hanging ladder was lowered, he walked down with a serious face, carefully looked at Atlante and the others as if picking goods, and then nodded slightly, skillfully Gestures up.

Others could understand his gesture, which meant that Atlanta and others should take him to rent a car.

This Atlantis has long been familiar with driving, and soon, he rented a hundred flatbed trucks with Desilau from a familiar dealership.

Immediately afterwards, they began to unload the truck.

At this moment, those who watched the fun also dispersed.

It is indeed a bit weird to open a warship to pull goods, but what they pull is normal goods. When the flour bag is carried, it is covered with white ash. Everyone has seen this a lot, and it is nothing to see.

The next step is to pull the goods into the city.

Desilau didn't play this routine once or twice, and he didn't need to pretend to be nodding and bowing at all. He even greeted people in the blunt Ottoman dialect.

The general meaning is that I am new here, take care of me or something.

Immediately afterwards, he stuffed a bag of silver coins over.

The leading guard opened the bag and took a look, his face couldn't help but smile.

Inside the bag are standard silver coins of the Ming Dynasty, which cannot be imitated, and weigh about a pound.

Good guy, this time he directly earned half a pound, so naturally he couldn't be happier.

Just like that, Desilao sneaked into the city with Atlanta and others.

He was really new here, and he didn't even find a buyer.

But it doesn't matter, soon, Atlantis helped him find an open space, and recruited a large group of strong men to help him unload the goods, and also helped him to keep a good look around the open space.

They pulled it three times, and finally pulled all the goods into the city. It was getting dark now, so they just stood next to the goods and fell asleep.

The guard at the city gate accepted Desilau's three bags of silver coins, so he asked him to say hello.

So, they just lay on the ground and no one cared.
