The Undead Empire That Travels Through the Multiverse - Vol 10 Chapter 14
The war is over.
The war was over the moment Rommel appeared in front of Chen Mo.
In the end, Rommel chose to surrender because he knew that he had no chance of winning.
In fact, when he knew from Chen Mo what he was going to face, he knew from the beginning that he had no chance of winning.
War is cruel.
Perhaps in the beginning, people could use excuses such as lofty ideals or national justice to persuade themselves, or they could use interests to drive the war to continue.
For those who manipulate the war, they may be able to obtain enough benefits from the war, but for those who participate in the war, in the end, the war can always bring pain.
There is nothing to say about repentance, nor about giving up because he couldn’t see the chance to win. Rommel just knew that this war could not bring him and Germany what he wanted.
So he chose to surrender, and after being disarmed, he and his army were put in a prisoner of war camp.
Originally, because of Rommel’s identity and Chen Mo’s attention to him, he deserved to be treated as an officer corresponding to his identity.
In fact, Chen Mo did indeed send him an invitation to invite Rommel to the palace in Cairo. After all, in terms of military affairs, Chen Mo felt that the officers of the Egyptian army should have a lot to learn from Rommel.
But Rommel gave up these preferential treatment and chose to stay with his soldiers.
“I led them to lose this war. I can’t just slap my **** and pretend that nothing happened, and let them suffer in the prisoner of war camp, while myself swaggeringly became your guest of honor.” Facing Chen Mo’s question, Rommel gave the answer.
Chen Modao felt that it didn’t matter to him. Anyway, he had no habit of abusing prisoners of war, nor was he interested in using them as experimental materials, so he went with Rommel.
Still, he asked the general to write down some of his military thinking in exchange for better treatment for his soldiers in the POW camp.
For this deal, Rommel readily accepted, and said that he could let other German generals write a tailor-made military code for the Egyptian army and help the Egyptian army analyze their problems in the war.
Of course, Chen Mo couldn’t ask for this. Everyone knew what the Egyptian army was originally.
Although the army was reformed after Chen Mo became king, and a batch of clone officers who were indoctrinated with the modern military code of the US military was brought in from the biochemical world, the modern military code of the US military is obviously not the same for the Egyptian army. Not very applicable.
After all, what Chen Mo wanted was a strong army with tenacious fighting will and flexible tactical thinking, not a group of old soldiers who knew nothing except relying on technology to crush the security war.
Chen Mo does not need to draw experience from the German army in the daily training of soldiers. The training methods from later generations are far more scientific and efficient than the current ones.
But in the cultivation of tactical thinking, the famous generals of this era are completely different from the officers of later generations.
So Rommel agreed to compile a military code of conduct for the Egyptian army, which was something Chen Mo was very satisfied with.
But that’s the end of the deal with the German army. After Rommel surrendered, the whole of North Africa has been brought under Chen Mo’s control.
Although this vast area is basically desert and Gobi, and lacks suitable human settlements, there are still many cities along the entire North African coastline, especially three of them are almost stuck in the Mediterranean Sea. in three positions.
One, of course, is Alexandria, which is now controlled by Egypt and is the home port of the Egyptian Navy.
It is not only very close to Cairo, the capital of Egypt, but also very close to the Suez Canal.
If you put a fleet here, you can easily block the Suez Canal.
It is precisely because of this that before the war, Chen Mo took advantage of this fact to get stuck in the German’s neck.
The other two cities are Tunisia and Ceuta.
Because one of these two cities is located in the Strait of Gibraltar, which connects the Mediterranean Sea to the Atlantic Ocean, and the other is located in the Tunis Strait in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea.
Needless to say, Ceuta is located in the Strait of Gibraltar. It is a natural port, and it is just on one side of the Strait of Gibraltar, opposite to Gibraltar on the other side. In Greek mythology, it is the Pillar of Hercules at the end of the world. .
It was precisely because the British took a fancy to the superior geographical location here that they occupied Gibraltar and built a military base to achieve the purpose of controlling the Mediterranean Sea.
Before the rise of Gibraltar, Ceuta was the gateway to control the Mediterranean.
It’s just that with the discovery of the New World, the status of the Mediterranean gradually declined, the significance of controlling the gateway to the Mediterranean is not as strong as in the past, and the Portuguese kingdom and the Spanish kingdom that controlled Ceuta declined one after another, which led to the decline of the status of the port of Ceuta. and the rise of Gibraltar.
As for Tunisia, it has the same status, except that it is far away from Sicily. If people do not go through the Tunisian Strait, they have to go through the Strait of Messina, the narrowest place between Sicily and the Apennine Peninsula, which is only three kilometers wide.
If it was in ancient times, it would not be a big problem, but for modern ships, the passage conditions of the Strait of Messina are too poor. In addition, the water is fast and the reefs are dense. Even in ancient times, this place is a myth and legend. The real body of monsters and monsters.
So for the current Chen Mo, he has mastered the three most important port nodes along the Mediterranean coast, and he can completely control the entire Mediterranean Sea based on these three ports.
Although this is not enough for the current Egypt, the naval power is not enough to do this, but the existence of the two aircraft carrier formations can still ensure Egypt’s right to speak and interests in the Mediterranean region.
And there is also good news that the local shipyard in Egypt, after years of accumulation of experience, as well as various technological blessings from other worlds and the efforts of clone engineers, Chen Mo finally built the first ship. Self-designed and built aircraft carrier.
A fleet carrier built to Cold War standards with three steam catapults and reinforced decks to take off and land jet aircraft.
Its displacement has reached 27,000 tons. The design refers to the design of the Essex class used by the United States in the late World War II and the early Cold War after the design of the beveled deck. In terms of combat performance, it is completely ahead of this era. other aircraft carriers.
And with the completion of this aircraft carrier, the Egyptian Navy will soon have three aircraft carriers, and will have more, which is very meaningful for Chen Mo’s vision to control the Mediterranean Sea. In the dark and damp mine tunnel, Lu Ye walked forward step by step with the ore basket on his back and the pickaxe in his hand.

To outsiders, there is nothing in front of Lu Ye, but in fact, in the young man’s field of vision, he can see a translucent shadow.
It was like the shadow of a tree, gray and unrecognizable, with luxuriant branches and leaves. The branches were separated from one-third of the tree body to the left and right, supporting a semi-circular crown.
It has been more than a year since he came to this world called Kyushu, and Lu Ye has not yet figured out what it is. He only knows that when his attention is concentrated enough, this shadow tree has a chance to appear in the field of vision. And no one else notices it at all.
What a sad life. The young man sighed.
A year ago, he suddenly woke up in this unfamiliar world. Before he could get acquainted with the environment, the power he was in was overrun by a group of thieves, and many people were killed. He and some other young men and women became that The captive of the thieves was then sent to this mine and became a lowly miner.
Afterwards, he learned from scattered conversations with others that the faction he was in was affiliated with the Haotian League, a sect called Xuantianzong.
The name of this sect sounds cool and tyrannical, but in fact it is just a small sect.
It was the Xieyue Valley under the command of Wanmoling who captured the Xuantian Sect.
The Haotian Alliance and Wan Moling are the two major factions in this world. They are all formed by the union of countless forces, big and small, fighting each other with the intention of completely destroying each other. It is said that it has been going on for hundreds of years.
In Lu Ye’s view, this kind of battle is simply a confrontation between the lawful camp and the evil camp. He just accidentally got involved in such a confrontation.
Over the years, wars in the Kyushu continent have been raging. Every year, small forces such as Xuan Tianzong have been uprooted, but soon more forces have sprung up, occupying various territories, making the situation even more chaotic.
Mine slave, just mine slave, Lu Ye comforted himself, compared to those who were killed, he was still alive anyway.
It’s not that he has any special ability to survive, but that Xieyue Valley needs some handymen to do things. Someone like Lu Ye who has no cultivation and is still young is undoubtedly the best choice.
In fact, the miners in this vein are not only people from Xuantian Sect, but also some other small families and disciples of small sects.
Evil Moon Valley is not weak. Over the years, it has captured a lot of territory. The original forces on these sites have naturally been destroyed, and some of the available personnel have been sent to various places for enslavement by Evil Moon Valley.
These people, without exception, have one characteristic: they haven’t opened their minds yet, and they don’t have cultivation bases, so they are easy to control.
There is a saying in the Kyushu Continent, it is difficult for a demon to transform into a form without enlightenment, and it is difficult for a person to cultivate without enlightenment.
If you want to practice, you need to open your spiritual orifices. Only when you have opened your spiritual orifices can you be qualified to practice.
Opening the spiritual orifice is not an easy thing. Ordinary people can open the spiritual orifice after systematic training. However, if they are from a cultivation family or a sect, the percentage may be higher if they have elders’ guidance.
Lu Ye couldn’t open his spiritual aperture, so he could only make a living by mining in this dim mine.
However, the mine slave is not without a way out. If he succeeds in enlightenment and finds the person in charge to report to him, he will have the opportunity to participate in an assessment. If the assessment is successful, he can become a disciple of Xie Yuegu.
However, there are very few miners who can open their minds. They work all day in this dim environment and can’t even get enough to eat. How can they be enlightened.
So basically 99% of the miners have accepted their fate and work hard every day just for a full meal.
Lu Ye had no sense of belonging to the Xuantian Sect. After all, the Xuantian Sect was destroyed as soon as he came to this world, and he did not know who the people in the sect were.
He also doesn’t want to be a disciple of Xieyuegu. This is not a serious force. Just hearing the name gives people a sense of evil, and it will be cold sooner or later.
But he can’t live here as a miner all his life. What kind of formality is that? He is also an elite in the new era. If he doesn’t have a dream, what is the difference between a salted fish and a salted fish.
So for the past year, he has been working hard to enlighten himself. Originally, he thought that only the shadow tree that he could see could provide him with some wonderful help, but until now, the shadow tree is still just a shadow. It also affects his vision.
Lu Ye seriously doubted whether there was something wrong with his eyes.

Turning a corner, a faint light appeared in the distance, which was one of the exits of the mine.

Today’s harvest is good. If you turn in the ore in the ore basket, you should be able to contribute three points. If you count the accumulation in the past few days, it is about twelve points. Two points are exchanged for two steamed buns, and the remaining ten points are just enough. Change a Qi and Blood Pill.

Qi and Blood Pill is a very low-level medicinal pill, and it is not an aid to enlightenment, but in order to open one’s body, it must be filled with Qi and blood. Although Qi and Blood Pill is low-level, it is suitable for people like Lu Ye who are not enlightened.
The reason why Xieyuegu is willing to take out the Qi and Blood Pill is not because of their kindness, but because they understand the way of people’s hearts. This cheapest and low-level pill can make people with hope work harder to mine.
For example, Lu Ye works hard every day.
Thirty feet away from the exit of the mine tunnel, Lu Ye’s eyes inadvertently glanced at a corner on the left front, where there was a huge boulder.
He kept walking and continued to walk forward until about ten feet before he put down the mining basket he was carrying behind him, tightened the pickaxe in his hand, and took out a moderately sized stone from the mining basket and weighed it a little. .

The next moment, he ran towards the boulder, approached the boulder, slid sideways, stepped on the rock wall of the mine, and swooped down towards the back of the boulder with the help of the rebound force, like a vigorous Cheetah.
The two figures were half-squatting behind the boulder, using the boulder to cover their figures, but they never thought that people would find their tracks.
Hearing the movement, it was too late to see Lu Ye trying to get up.
Under the terrified gazes of the two, Lu Ye raised his hand and threw the ore in his hand, hitting the bridge of one of them’s nose. The man immediately let out a miserable cry and fell to the ground on his back, blood dripping from his face.
Lu Ye’s mining pick in the other hand shot again, but missed the second person. That person responded well and turned his head to avoid it.
However, Lu Ye had already rushed in front of him, kicked him down, and hit the opponent’s lower abdomen. The man was suddenly in pain, and he flew out, fell to his knees, and spat out a mouthful of sour water.
Lu Ye stepped forward, grabbed the other’s hair with one hand, saw the other’s face clearly, and sneered: Who am I, it turned out to be the two of you brothers!
The two people he knew were disciples of the Liu family. After the site where the Liu family was located was captured by Xieyuegu, some young disciples of the Liu family were sent here to serve as mine slaves.
Strictly speaking, the two brothers, Lu Ye and the Liu family, are connected by the same fate.

This time, the smashing was not light, Liu’s second child just snorted and was immediately knocked unconscious.
Lu Ye walked towards Boss Liu who was injured by him before.

Boss Liu’s forehead was smashed, his eyes were blurred with blood, he vaguely saw Lu Ye walking towards him, and he was so frightened that he rolled and crawled: “Forgive me, my two brothers didn’t know it was you who came here, they thought it was someone else!
The two Liu brothers sneaked into ambush in front of the exit of the mine, naturally they had no good intentions.
Before the two were arrested, they were both spoiled and spoiled. Even if they became mine slaves, they were unwilling to endure hardship. However, the status of mine slaves was low, and the people of Xieyue Valley did not regard mine slaves as human beings, and there was no ore exchange. If you contribute, you can’t get food at all.
Therefore, the two brothers often squatted in front of a certain exit of the mine tunnel and robbed the miners who had been singled out. Many people were unlucky because of this. Not only were the ore mined hard every day robbed, but they were also beaten to death.

Last time they just wanted to rob Lu Ye, but they were not opponents and were taught a lesson.
I never thought that it was only a few days ago that I met these two brothers again.
Just like rice raises a hundred kinds of people, there are miners like the Liu brothers who are lazy and lazy, and there are people who have dreams like Lu Ye.
In the past year, Lu Ye’s contributions from the exchange of ore, in addition to ensuring daily food and clothing, were all exchanged for Qi and Blood Pills.
He took no less than thirty Qi and Blood Pills.
This makes Lu Ye stronger than most miners. Although his physique is not strong, the power contained in his body is already better than that of ordinary people.
It’s no problem to deal with two lazy miners.
Boss Liu was still begging for mercy, but Lu Ye pretended not to hear him, grabbed him by the hair, raised the stone in the other hand, and smashed it down.
Lu Ye has seen too many tragedies in his life as a mining slave for more than a year, and he has long understood the truth. In this world of cannibalism, any pity and sympathy are useless.
The miners are not in harmony. The miners from different forces are destined to be unable to unite. For a piece of good ore, the miners often beat their heads and blood.
Every day people die in the mine tunnel, and every time you walk a certain distance, you can see a dead bone scattered on the ground.
There are not a few miners who starved to death because they were robbed.
Boss Liu fell in response.
Lu Ye retrieved his mining pick, put the mining basket on his back again, and walked towards the exit. He didn’t kill the Liu brothers, but he was not merciful, but the injured miners generally didn’t survive long here.

After walking a few steps, a person suddenly rushed in in a panic at the exit.

Get off! The man drank lowly and swiped towards Lu Ye with a slap.
At this moment, Lu Ye felt cold all over his body because he saw a light blue light flowing through the palm of his hand.
That was the light of spiritual power, in other words, it was a monk who shot him!
Only by opening the spiritual aperture can you be qualified to practice and be called a monk.

The spiritual power of a monk is an extremely magical power. Lu Ye once saw a monk in Xieyue Valley take action. Although he did not have too much power, the man just smashed a piece of ore with a light palm. It was after seeing that magical scene that Lu Ye made up his mind that he must open his spiritual aperture and become a monk.
He also secretly assessed that even the lowest cultivator in Xie Yuegu could easily hang ten of himself.
So when he realized that it was a cultivator who attacked him, Lu Ye knew that he was about to face great trouble.
At the juncture of life and death, he abruptly stopped his steps and jumped back suddenly.
His chest numb, the sound of a broken bone sounded, and Lu Ye flew upside down and fell to the ground.
The severe pain made him sober a lot. After realizing that he was still alive, he immediately got up.
what! The cultivator who shot it was a little surprised. Although he didn’t use his full strength just now, he just shot it casually, but it shouldn’t be something that the miner could bear.
Using the dim light to see the miner’s face clearly, he blurted out: Lu Ye?
At this moment, Lu Ye was already in a posture of turning around and running away. He was stunned when he heard the voice: Steward Yang?
This cultivator surnamed Yang is a small manager at the mine, and Lu Ye often deals with him. Because the Qi and Blood Pill was exchanged from him, they are also familiar with each other.
Manager Yang is very optimistic about Lu Ye. After all, it is rare to see a mining slave like him who can bear hardships and stand hard work. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

However, there is no special preferential treatment, and there is an insurmountable gap between mortals like Lu Ye and monks without enlightenment.
After recognizing Lu Ye, Manager Yang was relieved that he failed to kill the opponent with his palm. Lu Ye has exchanged a lot of Qi and Blood Pills from him over the past year, and his physical quality is better than that of ordinary miners. Strong, plus he just hit him casually and didn’t want to kill people deliberately, it’s not surprising that the other party can survive.
Opposite Director Yang, Lu Ye was beating a drum in his heart.
The monks in Xieyue Valley generally don’t pay attention to the life and death of the miners. They also know that the miners often fight in the mines. Unless they meet them, they basically ignore them.
Only then did Lu Ye beat the Liu brothers to the ground and collapsed to the ground. Turning around, Manager Yang slapped him. From Lu Ye’s point of view, it was clear that Manager Yang was teaching him a lesson.
