Chapter 1223

This is not only true for the colonial government of Sudan, but also for the British colonial government of Somaliland and the colonial government of South Africa. These three colonies are all under the nose of East Africa.

The British's vigilance towards East Africa is obviously not unnecessary. After all, the fact that East Africa invades Darfur is already in front of us.

Soon, Falsheng, the commander of the 7th East African Infantry Regiment, came to "greet" the British colonial troops in a military vehicle.

"What is your name? I am Falsheng, the commander of the 7th Infantry Regiment of a brigade in the Northwestern Military Region of East Africa." Falsheng jumped out of the military vehicle and came to Johnson and asked.

"I am Johnson, the deputy commander of the British Army in Khartoum. Are you the top local person in charge?" Johnson asked.

"Of course, the Darfur region is now under the control of our regiment. If you have any questions, you can tell me directly." Looking at the arrogant Johnson, Farson said directly without being humble or overbearing.

Johnson asked: "Very well, Commander Falcon, let me ask you why your ministry wants to invade Darfur. This is the territory of our British Empire. Aren't you afraid of causing disputes between the two countries?"

Faersheng: "Haha, Mr. Johnson, don't be angry yet. There is no invasion. And I know that Darfur is not considered British territory. After all, the Sudan of Darfur has made it clear before that it has withdrawn from Sudan, and has also negotiated with the United Kingdom. You have a dispute."

Johnson: "Huh, that's because Ali Dinar is ignorant of current affairs, and no matter what he does, he can't change the agreement signed between Darfur and the United Kingdom. It is written in black and white, so Darfur is regarded as the British Sudan region. part of it is irrefutable.”

It is really difficult to refute what Johnson said. After all, Britain must have signed an agreement with Ali Dinar.

However, Falson was no ordinary person. He said: "Don't lie to me, Mr. Johnson. I also understand the content of your agreement, which is for Darfur to join Sudan in the name of an autonomous region."

"However, since it is an autonomous region, the Darfuris naturally have the right to withdraw from Sudan. Now Ali Dinar and the Darfuris led by him have obviously changed their minds, so they decided to withdraw."

"So theoretically speaking, now that Darfur has withdrawn from Sudan, it naturally cannot be counted as your country's sphere of influence. What's more, Ali Dinar has planned to add the Darfur region to our East African asylum and become a protectorate in East Africa. ”

"That is to say, Darfur has now become our protectorate in East Africa. Instead, I would like to ask why you want to serve as a soldier in our sphere of influence in East Africa."

Farson directly turned against the foreigners, deliberately ignored Darfur's previous agreement with the United Kingdom through a round of nonsense, and finally defeated it.

Needless to say, Johnson really believed Falsheng's statement. At this time, Johnson believed that Ali Dinar had really defected to East Africa.

This is consistent with his previous speculation. After all, Johnson does not believe that East Africa will invade Darfur and conflict with Ali Dinar.

After all, with the external threat of Britain, it is entirely possible for Ali Dinar to embrace East Africa's thigh.

This can also explain why the guerrillas who originally resisted fiercely suddenly disappeared when Johnson went from the east to Fasher.

Of course, Johnson did not expect that the reason for the retreat of these guerrillas was that after East Africa controlled Ali Dinar and others, they returned to Fasher because they could not receive orders. As a result, they were also wiped out by the 7th East African Infantry Regiment.

"You call Ali Dinar over. I have to confront him to confirm whether your words are correct." Johnson said.

At this time, Johnson still wanted to find Ali Dinar, the culprit, before talking about anything else.

Obviously, it was impossible for Falsheng to agree to Johnson's request. After all, if Ali Dinar really arrived here, then Falsheng's lies would be exposed directly.

So Falsheng said: "I'm sorry Mr. Johnson, Ali Dinar Sultan has gone to East Africa to recuperate because he is unwell, so it is impossible for him to come here to talk to you."

As soon as these words came out, Johnson got angry and said: "There is no need to use this kind of bullshit to fool me. Commander Falsheng, do you really intend to make East Africa an enemy of the empire?" What nonsense is going to East Africa to recuperate? It is obviously a lie. In Johnson's view, this was an excuse used by Falcon to excuse himself.

Judging from what Ali Dinar did before, it was impossible for him to be sick. If Ali Dinar was so weak, what could he do to fight the British.

Falcon was not afraid of the threat from the British. He said calmly: "Mr. Johnson, I am telling the truth. As for the relationship between the two countries, that is not something you and I can decide. Of course, there are differences between the Rhine and London. Responsible for communication and communication.”

"Our country only reluctantly helped Sultan Ali Dinar stabilize the Darfur region in accordance with his request."

Ali Dinar, who had been imprisoned, was represented by Farson in this way, which must be said to be extremely ironic.

"Very good, it seems that Commander Falsheng, you are very confident!" Johnson waved.

"Pull..." The densely packed guns were raised by the British colonial army and pointed at Falcon.

Fal Sheng said without changing his expression: "Alala... Sir Johnson, look at you, you are so impatient and want to go off the gun at the slightest disagreement. This is very dangerous."

He turned to Johnson and continued: "We in East Africa are not afraid of any threats. If you don't believe me, look over there!"

Farsheng pointed to several roofs and said to Johnson: "Here, and here..."

Johnson looked in the direction Farsheng pointed, and saw six or seven machine guns on several roofs in Fasher, facing the British army.

Farsheng said: "Our regiment's machine gun company is equipped with more than a dozen machine guns and more than a dozen artillery pieces. We have more people than you, so I still hope you can calm down."

"I am the commander of a regiment in East Africa. Although our regiment now has a battalion responsible for other areas in Darfur, there are nearly 2,000 troops in Fasher now, so Mr. Johnson should be less angry. If something happens to me, it will be bad if the brothers open fire and injure you."

After listening to Fasher's words, Johnson was so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood. With this manpower and firepower, you can go directly to Khartoum! It's a waste of talent to run to Darfur.

Although Sudan is a buffer zone between East Africa and Britain, there are really not many British troops in Sudan. The British garrison is mainly in Egypt in the previous life.

After all, Egypt and Sudan are one in this era. The most important thing for Britain to control Sudan is to use it as a barrier to protect Egypt.

Moreover, Sudan's climate and output cannot supply too many troops, just take the army that Johnson is leading now.

Although there are many people, most of them are temporarily transferred from Egypt. If it weren't for the sudden rebellion in Darfur, the garrison in Sudan would definitely be greatly reduced.

As a buffer zone, Sudan's real value is not as high as imagined. This is similar to Mongolia in the previous life. Whether Russia or the Far East Empire attacked, Mongolia had no resistance at all. His existence, at most, gave the two countries some sense of security.

So Sudan also played this role. Britain did not expect Sudan to really resist the invasion of East Africa. With the strength of East Africa, a small force could beat all the troops stationed in Sudan.

In Johnson's eyes, the so-called Seventh Infantry Regiment in front of him had such strength. If their forces were concentrated, there would be about 3,000 soldiers, which could almost compete with the main force of Khartoum. As for the outcome, it was unknown.

But the problem was that if East Africa really attacked Khartoum, it would obviously not send only such a force. According to Johnson's understanding, there was a regiment of East African troops stationed in the city of Gezira alone. Together with the Seventh Infantry Regiment, the two regiments were enough to eliminate all British military presence in Sudan.
