The Undead Empire That Travels Through the Multiverse

This naval battle, which was unprecedented in history, lasted until sunset. When the afterglow of the setting sun spread over the entire sea, the Italian navy, which could no longer fight anymore, withdrew from the battlefield in embarrassment.

In this naval battle, the Italians lost all three battleships, four of the seven cruisers participating in the battle were sunk, and the three surviving cruisers were basically severely damaged, and they barely withdrew from the battlefield.

As for the destroyers, most of them were lost, and few of them were intact.

Nearly two-thirds of these achievements were achieved by the aviation force. Although the battleship formations also achieved gains, they undoubtedly looked bleak compared to the air raids, which were so exciting that they could almost be written into textbooks.

But the British were not very happy about this brilliant victory with almost no losses on their side.

After all, among the results achieved by the aviation force, almost all important results were attributed to the Egyptians. The roaring white fighter planes on the battlefield not only brought deep fear and nightmares to the Italians, but also left an extremely deep impression on the British. deep impression.

The British navy in this era was still proud. They had not yet degenerated to the extent that they regarded the achievements of their allies as their own.

And this also led to the fact that although they won the battle, their emotions were not high.

But it was a victory after all. Although the mood was not very high, when the fleet returned to Alexandria, the sailors of the fleet still had smiles on their faces.

Moreover, the senior officials of the Mediterranean Fleet did not criticize these sailors harshly. They not only gave them a holiday, but also prepared a grand celebration banquet.

As for Fleet Commander Cunningham himself, he only showed up at the celebration banquet, said a few words and then left.

He approached the ambassador to Egypt who came to attend the celebration banquet and made his request to him.

"Sorry Sir, I'm afraid it will be difficult to fulfill your request." However, the ambassador showed an embarrassed expression to Cunningham and explained to him: "Although Egypt has technical cooperation with our country in many fields, as well as their aviation industry It was only established with the help of our country, but the technology mastered by Chen Mobian is already at the forefront of the world in many fields, even ahead of our country."

As the ambassador to Egypt, the ambassador has a deep understanding of the situation in Egypt.

He knew clearly that without Chen Mo, Egypt, which seemed very powerful now, would still be the colonial country controlled by the British.

The reason why it appears so powerful now is just the changes brought about by Chen Mo.

Without Chen Mo, although this country now has a certain financial background and can enter the ranks of world powers, it will still decline in a short period of time.

Because according to his understanding, Egypt's leadership in all fields comes from the advanced technical information provided by Chen Mo to various industries in Egypt.

Egypt guards these technical materials very closely. Anyone who has access to the materials must be under the supervision of the Egyptian intelligence agency before they can read them in the place where the materials are stored, and no copying or copying is allowed.

In fact, the British side had already tried to steal these technical data when they were first taken out by Chen Mo. But unfortunately, the British intelligence agency is not the British intelligence agency in the film and television works, and they do not have James Bond, either. Or a level 00 agent.

After several attempts, the spies sent by the British were literally hung up and beaten by the Egyptian intelligence agencies. If this was not just a struggle under the table, the British would have been embarrassed and shamed all over the world.

Of course, in addition to private methods that cannot be brought to the table, the British have also tried other methods.

For example, inviting experts and scholars who are qualified to read confidential information to give lectures in the UK, and then collecting bits and pieces of information through insinuations, or proposing cooperation in the name of the official...

In short, after Egypt provided Britain with tank technology that proved to be extremely advanced, the British intelligence department tried every means to obtain more technical information from the Egyptians, but the results were very little.

In the words of the head of the British intelligence agency responsible for the project, all their results did not even add up to a useful paper.

All channels that could be tried were blocked. What was obtained through official cooperation was not the most advanced. All the invited experts and scholars were cursed and could not disclose any information. Intelligence officers who tried to steal were hung in their own strongholds and smoked. whip……

In short, the British failed to get anything useful from Egypt, except for official cooperation projects that obtained some technologies that although they seemed advanced, were actually only second-rate.

After listening to the ambassador's account of the confidential information, Cunningham's face showed unconcealable disappointment, but he still asked the ambassador: "Compared with those second-rate technologies and our country's technology, who is more advanced?"

Cunningham must ask this question. On the one hand, the performance of the Skyraider attack aircraft he has seen is really too good. When countries are still using bombers and torpedo attack aircraft separately, all countries use aircraft carriers. When we are still stuck in the concept of auxiliary ships, the Skyraider attack aircraft, which has two functions at the same time, is undoubtedly a subversion.

This is as outrageous as if you took out the latest model of smartphone from your pocket in an era when everyone was still holding brick phones like Mobile Phones.

Although the generation difference between Skyraider and Swordfish is not that exaggerated, Cunningham is also confident that British aircraft manufacturers can build aircraft with the same performance or slightly worse performance, but if he can get the Skyraider The technology of attack aircraft is obviously excellent.

After all, the time it takes to design a new model from scratch and to copy it after obtaining a complete set of information is definitely completely different.

Not being able to get the most advanced Skyraider, something less than one level is not unacceptable to Cunningham.

But if there is more advanced technology in China, there is no need to spend this price.

Although Egypt is an ally of Britain, as Egypt's strength grows, this ally's attitude towards Britain is gradually changing. This is something he, the commander of the Mediterranean Fleet, clearly feels.

Although Egypt has been cooperating with Britain in various ways, since the opening of the Magic Academy in Egypt four years ago, the cooperation between Britain and Egypt has shown a tendency to require a certain or even equal or exceeding price to achieve it.

Therefore, if it is not possible to obtain technology that is ahead of the domestic level, Cunningham does not want the country to pay an unnecessary price for it.

However, what made him feel regretful or disappointed was that a bitter smile appeared on Mr. Ambassador's face: "Even the Egyptians' second-rate technology is still five to ten years ahead of our country's most advanced technology in the same field..."

－－－－－－Digression－－－－－

The technological gap is roughly like using the technology of the 1960s and 1970s after the war and giving it the technology of the end of World War II, widening the gap of a generation.

The Skyraider is almost the pinnacle of propeller aircraft. Although there are some with more extreme performance, most of them are only experimental models. After all, jets have begun to be produced at that time. Things with upper limits such as propeller aircraft will soon be replaced. Was eliminated.
