Greece’s Roman Road

Chapter 12: plan ahead

"Also, don't do anything until the Cameron expedition has not set foot in the Congo River Basin and confirmed that they are heading for the Congo River Basin," Constantine instructed.

After saying these words, he was worried that Stanley would be self-defeating.

He added: "It's still up to you to be flexible. In short, our goal is only limited to the Congo River Basin. If the Cameron expedition is only active in Tanzania, then we will not have any overstepping actions, if..."

The next words, Constantine did not say, but he believed that Stanley understood.

However, Belgium may not necessarily go to the Congo River Basin. After all, the Cameron expedition is only active in Tanzania. Tanzania is still far away from the Congo River Basin.

It was only because of Leopold II's sensitive and special identity that Constantine had such a big reaction.

"Your Excellency, I think it's best for you to have a meeting with His Majesty King Leopold II of Belgium. If you can reach an agreement, this is the most appropriate method and the cost is the lowest. As for doing it in Africa, then It's the last resort," Stanley said.

Although based on the strength of the current expedition, plus the 500 professional military personnel that Constantine promised to support, Stanley's expedition was far stronger than Cameron's team.

However, taking risks in Africa is inherently risky. You need to deal with various natural and man-made disasters and other emergencies at any time, such as diseases, food shortages, and so on.

If it can avoid conflicts with professional European adventure teams and reduce risks, it is more in line with Stanley's wishes.

"Meet with Leopold I, I will do it, but we can't put all our hope in Leopold's willingness to be a good boy, I will do both, as for you, or based on A tough solution," Constantine said.

"Also, the arrival of the 500 military personnel of the Royal Guard, before the Cameron expedition leaks its thoughts on the Congo River, put military targets on those **** Arab slave traders, and teach these **** a lesson ", Stanley said through gritted teeth.

Leopold is not easy to provoke, you little **** dare to come to beat the autumn wind.

"Slave traders usually have two routes of attack. One is through the Nile River to Sudan, and then down the Nile River to the Congo River Basin."

"The other is to make a base camp from Zanzibar, land on the coast of Tanzania and then move inland to the Congo," Stanley said.

"Even because of the frequent exchanges of these slave traders, the lions in the areas on both sides of the Arab slave trade route on the east coast have a habit of cannibalism," Stanley sighed.

"Man-eating lions, this is too scary," Nina said, covering her mouth with her little hands after hearing such terrifying news.

"This is because the slave traders have to travel long distances to get back to their base camps, such as Zanzibar on the coast of the Indian Ocean, after they have caught slaves deep into the African interior."

"Some sick slaves were abandoned by the slave traders on the way, or they escaped privately, but the lions are cheap, and those lions are addicted to eating people," Stanley said.

"I heard that lions often attack people or eat people on the east coast of Africa. It is because the slave traders frequently abandoned the old, weak and sick slaves, and they developed the habit of cannibalism." Seeing Nina's response to such news, Go on.

"The lions in East Africa will sneak into human villages and human courtyards in the dark, and suddenly take away unsuspecting children, frightened children cry, and wait until their parents come out. , the child is gone."

Stanley's tone was mysterious, talking about the danger, waving his hands and making gestures, his tone elongated, teasing Nina.

"How can a lion be so bad, even a child is not spared?" Nina covered her mouth with her hands, stared wide-eyed, and looked terrified.

"Which male lions especially like children, especially beautiful girls, when they lick their soft and wet tongues, the barbs on the tongue scrape the girls' delicate skin with blood, and they can even bite the bones. Unlike those adults, the bones are hard and the teeth are hard, and the meat is old and woody, and it is not delicious."

As Stanley spoke, he stuck out his tongue and opened his mouth, imitating the actions he described, thinking that he was like a male lion.

Hearing this, Nina ran to Constantine's side, just wrapped her arms around Constantine's arms, and said in horror, "Then I can't go to Africa."

The sight in front of him made Constantine speechless for a while.

He really could not have imagined that Stanley, who is in his 40s, still has a childlike innocence.

Looking at Stanley who was teasing Nina with great interest, Constantine's heart froze for a moment. By the way, I heard that Stanley is in his 40s. Because he has been adventuring in Africa all the year round, he is still unmarried and a bachelor.

Maybe he likes young girls.

Thinking of this, Constantine looked at the young and beautiful Nina beside him, and then looked at Stanley, who was concentrating on telling stories. It was really possible.

For Nina, who has stayed in the palace all the year round, there are few opportunities to communicate with the outside world, and she was born an orphan, and she lacked fatherly love in the process of growing up.

As for Stanley, he has long been a person who has been rolling around in crowds for a long time. He has rich experience in life and is experienced.

People like Stanley, UU reading www.uukanshu. com is to Nina what a magnet is to iron,

Don't you have a fatal attraction to Nina?

It's just that this guy is too old, in his 40s. I don't agree with this marriage. Thinking of this, Constantine shook his head.

"Okay, that's it for today's conversation." Constantine stood up and interrupted the chattering two.

"Mr. Stanley, just stay in this hotel for a while, and leave all the expenses to me. We are going back," Stanley said.

"Okay, Your Excellency," Stanley stood up.

"You don't need to send it, just have a good rest."

Constantine took Nina to the lobby. The lobby manager who was standing there hurriedly walked over and said respectfully, "Do you need anything else?"

"The guest in the box will stay in your hotel for a period of time to cultivate. This is my honored guest. Don't neglect me," Constantine instructed.

"As for the cost, I will pay for it, and I will let the housekeeper pay for it later," Constantine said.

The manager held a small notebook in his left hand and a note on it in his right, and said in his mouth, "Please rest assured, Your Excellency, we will definitely satisfy your distinguished guests."

 

In the carriage on the way home, Constantine said to Nina, who was still staring at the scenery outside the window: "Nina, after you go back, tell the housekeeper Cape that I will invite someone to hunt tomorrow, and you make him ready. ."

"Go hunting, I remember you don't like hunting," Nina said curiously with her head tilted.

"I just went hunting in name. I need to exchange feelings with a few friends," Constantine replied.

By the way, let's raise some more financing, Constantine thought.
