Chapter 1959: Scientist

At this time, Egypt, in the region of the Sugela Tribe.

Leonard followed Harris to Nashadier's position.

Looking at the position, Leonard immediately understood who the troops that had come to save them were.

So, who was this person that even Harris had to obey?

Harris saw his confusion and introduced him: "This is Nashadier, the leader of the Resistance Army."

Leonard was stunned and looked at Harris: "General, you are now..."

"That's right, I have defected to him now, Leonard. Nashadier has proven his loyalty to Egypt to me."

Leonard said earnestly: "I only recognize the Commander."

"The troops in my hands are the same."

Harris nodded and looked at Nashadier: "Nashadier, according to our agreement, I will no longer hold military power, so Leonard's troops will be under your command; you will have full authority over the entire force."

Leonard neither opposed nor agreed with Harris's arrangement.

To him, this was merely an order from Harris.

Nashadier nodded, looked at Leonard, and said: "Leonard, you will be the Cavalry General of the Resistance Army, directly under Henry's jurisdiction. I believe you must also be from the Wahala Tribe."

Leonard accepted the order.

A surge of excitement stirred in Nashadier's heart.

In the previous battle, their elite force of five thousand had suffered three hundred casualties, with about six hundred temporarily unable to fight.

A total of nearly one thousand were lost.

On Nashadier's side, the losses were relatively low.

But for Nashadier, what they had gained in this battle was a strong force; their cavalry contingent had now expanded to eight thousand.

This was already a massive cavalry force.

Plus, they now possessed fifteen thousand troops of other branches.

And there were over five thousand men in the reserve army.

The force he could directly mobilize now had reached twenty-three thousand.

Although the numbers were not necessarily huge, they were elite!

They had seized the French troops' Weapon Depot, so the twenty-three thousand-man force could be fully armed; it was no longer the state of the past where they couldn't even equip weapons.

Their troops had already experienced several battles, and the current force was one with rich combat experience.

Such a force would possess even greater combat power; when they faced the French troops again, even without relying on traps, they would be able to crush them.

Possessing such a force, Nashadier could not wait to command them in an attack.

But the entire force still needed to be integrated, as although they were a force that had experienced battle,

many of the units within it had not been integrated.

Especially with Harris's former subordinates, whom Nashadier had broken up and arranged into the units.

He did this precisely to break them down into smaller parts and make them his true warriors.

It seemed now that the effect of doing so was quite good.

It had achieved a certain level of success.

But now that Leonard's troops had joined, Nashadier had to postpone the plan to attack the Wahala Tribe region.

After all, the Wahala Tribe region had also changed commanders, and it was now commanded by Smith.

Nashadier did not know anything about Smith.

As the saying goes, know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle; Nashadier did not want to fight an unprepared war, so before attacking the Wahala Tribe, he wanted to understand Smith's specific situation more clearly.

As well as the current composition of the Wahala Tribe's army.

Everything could not be rushed.

Meanwhile, on the other side in Egypt, under Jiang Xuan's attack, the French Main Force could only struggle to

maintain a stable war situation.

Dawn was almost driven mad by the strange weapons of the Longyan Army.

They now completely did not want to fight the Longyan Army, because the Longyan Army's combat capability was simply too terrifying.

Although it was a war of attrition, if it weren't for the fact that the defensive lines they built were difficult to break, the Longyan Army might have already completely crushed the French troops by now.

Regarding the Longyan Army's combat state, the French troops could only adopt defensive tactics.

It was not the first time Dawn had thought of requesting reinforcements from the homeland, but without exception, they were all rejected, with very sufficient reasons.

The current French center of operations was Australia.

Other theaters were not that important, even New France in America, which was highly anticipated by France.

Their war situation could no longer be maintained, but the homeland still never provided them with support.

At this time, on the European continent.

French homeland.

After Delu achieved results in Australia, he immediately transmitted this news back to the homeland.

Louis XV was exceptionally excited after receiving the news, because Delu had not only transmitted the news of Australia's fall.

There were also over one thousand engineers and scientists from Longyan.

These were Longyan's most precious wealth and the secret to their strength.

But now, these engineers and scientists who held Longyan's powerful secrets were already controlled by the French.

Regarding Delu's achievements, Louis XV was not stingy in the slightest, directly conferring upon Delu the status of Hereditary Count and granting him vast fiefs.

Delu leaped to become a Noble!

Such a reward was already the highest honor of the French Empire; after all, in an imperialist Absolute Monarchy, what could compare to the glory of a noble title?

Louis XV could not wait to have the progress accelerated in interrogating these engineers and scientists.

Louis XV hoped they would reveal the knowledge they possessed.

The whole world hoped to obtain the secret of the Longyan technology.

It was not that they were not currently using Longyan technology to reverse-engineer and further enhance their own technology, but this reverse research was progressing slowly.

For example, regarding the lightweight Cannon previously provided by Richard, after research by French scientists, they could only determine that Longyan used a type of steel they were unfamiliar with.

This type of steel was relatively light in mass and possessed good thermal conductivity.

Of course, this was not the real reason why the Longyan Cannon could fight in jungles and be easily transported.

The real reason was that the Cannon designed by Longyan not only brought the thickness of the barrel to an incredible state.

Even the Cannonball had been changed, being completely different from other Cannonballs.

Because some special markings inside the barrel allowed such a Cannonball to be fired very far; this was something that required the mutual coordination of the Cannonball and the barrel.

They also followed the internal design of the Longyan Cannonball to produce models, and even used them for testing.

However, this thing, which looked almost one-to-one in appearance, had no way to exert the same power as the Longyan army's Cannon.

They researched it but did not discover where the problem lay, nor did they know what it was exactly because of.

It was not just them who had this distress; Britain was the same.

And to solve these problems, the simplest and fastest Method was to let the people who manufactured these things tell them the answer.

Now, these people who could tell France the answer had arrived.

Louis XV was incredibly excited!
