Expedition to Europe

What's in North Africa?

Before the 1930s, there were just piles of sand and piles of green.

It was not until the 1930s that oil fields were discovered in North Africa that this land gained real value.

Currently, in North Africa, the discovered oil fields are concentrated in Algeria and Libya, and TNS’s share is only a small part.

A very small portion.

But even this small part touches the hearts of countless people.

In the early morning, Mobil Oilfield, as usual, the oilfield started another noisy day. The workers got up from the simple sheds to prepare for meals. The technicians were still sleeping. The security personnel had to deal with something that happened in the nearby oil field last night. Not back yet, the purpose is the same as usual, Mobil Oilfield has started a new day.

If you just look at the name, Mobil Oilfield has a very bright future. In fact, this is just a good wish. Mobil Oilfield only has three oil wells that can produce oil, and the daily output is only about 8,000 barrels. Let alone Mobil Oil, even in Barcelona Er Petroleum Development Company and Mobil Oilfield are not ranked either.

Although the output is a bit lower, there is still oil output, so the Mobil Oilfield still has more than 300 workers, plus more than 20 security personnel. Although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs.

The workers in the Mobil Oilfield looked a little worried today. People from the security department went on a mission last night and have not returned yet, which makes people a little uneasy.

The Mobil Oilfield is located on the border between TNS and Libya. It is very close to the area controlled by the Brotherhood Alliance. Rangers from the Brotherhood Alliance are often found around the Mobil Oilfield. However, because the Mobil Oilfield has a security department, those The people in the Brotherhood didn't do anything too extreme, so although they were a little uneasy, they were not distracted from work.

As usual, Operations Manager Dan Rebus came to General Manager Adam Leslie's office to report on today's work plan.

"Today's task is still 8,000 barrels. As long as we get 8,000 barrels of crude oil, we will complete the task." Rebus's work plan is the same as usual, no different.

"Then do it." Leslie didn't want to talk nonsense. He was planning to transfer back to Djerba Island and was not too concerned about the Mobil Oil Field.

"The people from the security department haven't come back yet, do you want to remind them?" Rebus was still worried that without the security team by his side, Rebus would not be confident enough to urge the Algerians to work seriously.

"You can give them a call." Leslie half-joked.

After hearing Leslie's answer, Rebus didn't talk nonsense.

Rebus knew that this was a sign that Leslie was a little impatient.

This is North Africa. Making phone calls is a luxury. Telegraph is the most commonly used communication tool. However, due to cost reasons, it is not available everywhere. At least the security team definitely does not carry wireless telegraph.

After all, the cost of telephones is too high, and not just any team can afford to equip them. For the security team of Mobil Oilfield, let alone telephones, even wireless telegraphs are rare. There is only one wireless telegraph in the entire Mobil Oilfield, and that is Leslie and Rebus made countless reports before it could be installed.

After understanding what Leslie meant, Rebus turned around and left Leslie's office without arguing again, preparing to arrange the next shift handover.

Just as Rebus was arranging the handover, nearly a thousand knights had already assembled behind a sand dune less than five kilometers away from Mobil Oil Field.

"Boss, everything is ready. As long as you give the order, the Mobil Oilfield will be ours." Jackson was confident and took several centurions to ask Yang Deshan for orders.

The organizational structure of the Brotherhood Alliance is different from that of the current armies of various countries. As a descendant of Arabs, the organizational structure implemented by the Brotherhood Alliance is that of the Arabs in ancient times. In fact, it is not accurate to describe it this way, because strictly speaking, "a hundred The position of "husband captain" was not created by Arabs, but considering that the Brotherhood is a group of illiterate people, it is understandable.

"Go and get this oil field back, and then we can have enough weapons and ammunition." Yang Deshan was sitting on a small blanket. Shalim was making tea for Yang Deshan. If there was a Chinese present, he would definitely recognize it. This is Longjing.

Tea during the Republic of China was still very popular in North Africa. The food North Africans usually eat is too greasy, and they need tea to neutralize the fat, so tea is very common in North Africa.

Of course, just because tea is very common does not mean that Longjing is also very common. The common tea in North Africa is imported from India, not directly from the Republic of China.

Since the 1980s, the British have been planting tea in India, so tea is no longer a specialty of the Republic of China. Tea in North Africa is more Indian.

Of course, the tea Yang Deshan drank must have been imported from the Republic of China. As the "general" of the Brotherhood, Yang Deshan always had some privileges.

Upon hearing Yang Deshan's order, Jackson did not hesitate at all, and immediately whistled and galloped away with a group of troops.

There are indeed many oil fields in North Africa, but the number of cars is pitiful. Even the Brotherhood cannot afford cars now, and Yang Deshan rides a camel.

The area where the Mobil Oilfield is located is a desert area. In this kind of place, it is better if you walk slowly. If you are galloping, the dust will be very large. This is simply the best warning tool. Jackson and the others have just set off. Within five minutes, a loud siren sounded from the Mobil Oil Field.

It was useless to make a sound. The security team of Mobil Oil Field had not returned yet. If Rebus wanted to resist, he could only rely on the wrench in his hand.

So without any resistance, Jackson and the cavalry easily seized control of Mobil Oil Field.

"Listen, we are the Brotherhood Alliance. From now on, Mobil Oil Field is the industry of the Brotherhood Alliance. You must work for us, just like before. Of course, we will also pay you, even more than before. As long as you work hard, your life will be the same as before, and there will be no change. At the same time, you will earn more money and your safety will be guaranteed. Do you understand?" At the entrance of the oil field, Jackson sat on the back of a camel, holding an Enfield rifle in his hand, and lectured the workers in front of him.

The desert area still has its advantages. The workers of the entire Mobil Oil Field are very honest. No one tried to escape, and no one tried to resist. Including Rebus, everyone's expression was a little dull, and they didn't react much to Jackson's words.

The original text is in the six # 9 @book/bar!

"Damn it, did you understand what I said? Now I want you to go back to work immediately, immediately! Now!" Jackson was a little angry. In order to increase the deterrent effect, Jackson pulled the trigger, of course not at anyone, but fired a warning shot into the sky.

"Sir, I don't quite understand why you are doing this? You know, this is the Basel Oil Development Company, the bosses are Prince Basel and King Lan Fang. If you do this, you will definitely be retaliated by those two big men, so the best thing for you to do now is to evacuate, and I can pretend that this didn't happen." Leslie was not there, and Rebus was the highest leader of the workers present. It was reasonable that Rebus should come out to negotiate.

"Don't worry about Prince Basel and King Lan Fang. They are indeed big men, but they can't take care of this now. If I were you, I would go back to work now. In any case, at least that way I won't let you get hurt." Jackson was impolite and threatening.

"Of course, we will continue to work, but one thing must be made sure, we are working for the oil field. Not for your brotherly alliance." Lei Bushi had a bottom line and emphasized it quite firmly.

"Who are you? What's your name?" Jackson finally looked Lei Bushi in the face, raised his leg and jumped off the camel's back, standing in front of Lei Bushi.

"Leibos, Archibald Lei Bushi, I am the production manager, and also the operations manager. Now here, I am the top leader." Lei Bushi did not shirk responsibility and directly reported his name and position.

The Mobil Oil Field actually covers a large area of ​​more than ten square kilometers. Although there are only three oil wells here, they have not been fully developed. If exploration continues, it is estimated that more oil wells will appear.

Basel Petroleum Development Company has been a mature company that has been running for more than two years. It has its own set of operating rules. Everyone is responsible for their own duties. If it is the Mobil Oil Field, in this occasion, Lei Bushi really has the final say.

"Very good, Lei Bushi, I will remember you. By sunset today, you have to produce 8,000 barrels of crude oil, otherwise I will think you are lazy. I have always been fair to lazy people. Every barrel of crude oil is a life. I don't care what the reason is. As long as the output is less than 8,000 barrels, I will ask for your help." Jackson can also be lazy. Jackson is not proficient in oil extraction, but fortunately, the gun is in Jackson's hands and Jackson has enough decision-making power.

"If you insist, I will certainly do it, but I need a promise. If I can complete the task of 8,000 barrels, then you can't hurt anyone here at will." Lei Bushi has a bottom line. Being responsible for the workers is one of Lei Bushi's tasks.

"Then let's get started. Don't waste time on meaningless things." Jackson didn't want to waste time. This waste is all crude oil, which is equivalent to money.

When Yang Deshan arrived at the oil field, the machine had started running again, and the oil field was noisy again, just like in the past, without any difference.

"——That's it. We only fired one shot and took control of the oil field." Jackson reported to Yang Deshan, not very proud.

"Okay, gather the brothers. Next, we have to face Prince Basel's mercenaries." Yang Deshan has a clear understanding of the current situation.

The oil field is now the lifeblood of Basel. Basel will definitely not allow the Brotherhood Alliance to poach his people, so next, there is another fierce battle to fight.
