British 1986

Looking at Prince Hussein who was talking about the Royal Hussars, he looked proud and talked about how many dangerous missions he had participated in before.

Allen sneered inwardly.

Everyone is the same. The British Army generally does not have the title "Royal" in front of it. It is not like the Navy. When it is said, it is the Royal Navy, and the Army is the Army!

But some regiments in the army will bear the name of the royal family, such as the Royal Hussars.

This regiment is not a regiment-level unit as ordinary people think. It is a regiment of Great Britain. You all know it. We, Great Britain, have our own national conditions here. This thing is like you never know how many people can sit in a Wuling Hongguang. .

The British regiment can be called a regiment with as few as a few hundred people, and as many as too many to count.

Anyway, as far as Allen knew, the unit Hussein had served in Britain was considered one of the elite ace units in the army, with extremely strong combat effectiveness.

The nominal supreme commander of the regiment is the Archduke of Edinburgh, now the Queen's husband, Prince Philip.

This regiment is nominally a regiment directly loyal to the Queen, so it is given the royal prefix. It used to be first established in Ireland. Now, the composition of the soldiers is very complicated, but no matter how ace the troops are, such as Hussein With the status of the prince, it is impossible for others to really send him to participate in any dangerous missions. If he gets injured and has an accident, they can't explain it clearly.

Anyway, when Allen looked at the files on Prince Hussein two days ago, he didn't see any achievements he made during his service.

Just listen to this thing for fun, just like when Allen served in the Royal Navy, he was an ordinary sailor himself, but because he came from a noble family, he enjoyed the treatment of an officer as soon as he got on the ship. Together with Shitou, they lived in the slightly higher-equipped officer's rest cabin, and ate with the captain on the officer's meal standard.

When Allen was fishing on the boat, he accidentally scratched the corner of his eye and suffered a minor injury. The captain was so scared that he wanted to use an anti-submarine helicopter to take him to the nearest hospital on shore immediately.

With Allen's skin injury, the captain was so nervous at the time, let alone Hussein, a foreign prince.

However, all nobles with some connections in the family will receive this kind of treatment when they serve in the army. If you don't have this kind of treatment, it only proves that your family is too good and your life is too miserable.

Prince Hussein looked at Allen and listened to him. He only smiled and agreed without answering. He was slightly anxious in his heart. He has a short temper and likes to solve everything through violent means, but sometimes, when faced with certain things, Violence cannot solve all problems!

Just like now, the reason why he is anxious to get to know Allen is that Prince Hussein has his own ideas.

Jordan is a small country. His father has been moving among various forces. He seems to be somewhat famous and famous in the Middle East. Although the country is weak, who in the entire Middle East does not know the reputation of the old king?

The old king's status in the Middle East is like Yu Qian's father in Guo Degang's cross talk, he is a super peacemaker!

If there is any conflict among neighboring countries, the first thing everyone thinks of before starting a fight is to send someone to ask the old King of Jordan to make peace.

The old king and the little overlord of the Middle East before 1991, Boss Sa of Iraq, are close friends. He has been entangled with various forces for many years. Coupled with the factor of their family's bloodline and wide network, others sell them wherever they go. His face.

Even those stupid and wealthy Saudi tycoons have to sell the old King of Jordan three-point thin noodles.

As long as the old king takes action, this matter will basically be settled!

However, the above situations are just in the past. Now, with Jordan supporting Iraq to fight Kuwait, and the arrival of the Americans later, Jordan's life has become a bit difficult after the Gulf War, so the old king used his special skills again. Continue to move around and start to make friends with Americans.

but

Now the old king is in bad health.

Although the outside world doesn't know it yet, as the eldest son of the family and often in close contact with the old king, Prince Hussein knows the old king's physical condition best!

And what is he embarrassed about now?

He is thirty years old this year, but he is still a prince, not a crown prince!

The royal family in the Middle East has a custom of succession from brother to brother.

That is to say, theoretically speaking, if the old king really dies, and the old king has no younger brother, his position must be passed on to his son, and it must be the eldest son. If the eldest son dies, then From the eldest son to the second son, and so on.

And Hussein is the eldest son of the old king.

But Jordan has been influenced by the British for so many years, and they will now also establish a crown prince.

As long as the crown prince is established, the throne of the old king can be passed directly to the crown prince, without having to check whether the crown prince is the eldest son.

What's Hussein's problem now?

As the eldest son, his position under his butt is unstable. Logically speaking, the position of crown prince should have been established early on, and it must belong to him, Prince Hussein.

But the old king kept waiting.

What is he waiting for?

The old king has another son, the half-brother of Prince Hussein. Although the old king's son has average abilities, he looks very similar to the old king. It can be said that he is carved from the same mold. .

As an old man and a king with real power, sometimes, when he looks at the candidates for succession, he really doesn’t look entirely at ability. Jordan’s development limit is only so high, as long as the successor can be honest and honest Just keep it together and do the same things as the old king did before!

As a result, the balance in the old king's heart gradually tilted towards his younger son who looked very much like himself. The only problem now is that the younger son is still young, only a teenager, and he is not qualified to succeed to the throne. , rashly appointing him as the heir apparent, and fearing that Prince Hussein would cause trouble, so...

The position of Crown Prince of Jordan has been delayed by the old king, and it has never been finalized.

Prince Hussein also had expectations for the old king a few years ago, but as time went by, he felt that his destiny was in his own hands, so after he returned from studying abroad, he immediately took over Jordan's most powerful combat power troops - special forces.

Prince Hussein is now the secret commander-in-chief of the special forces.

With soldiers in hand, Prince Hussein had a certain amount of confidence. Just when he was ready to have a showdown with his father, the damn Yankees came. During the Gulf War, the coalition forces caught the Iraqis and beat them up. , the surrounding countries were frightened after this battle.

Prince Hussein's plans were also disrupted.

Now that the United States is powerful in the Middle East, the small amount of troops he has in hand is simply not enough to support his big move in Jordan. It can only make the old king fear him, but that's all.

In this case, Prince Hussein can only follow his father's example and find foreign help!

He is already thirty years old this year. If he does not establish a crown prince, his younger brother will soon grow up, and he will not have time by then.

When looking for foreign aid, the Yankees were the first to be excluded by Prince Hussein. It was not that the Yankees were not strong, but that his father was pro-American and pro-British.

If he goes to the Yankees for help now, in this case, unless the Yankees are stupid, they will give up supporting the good old king and support him instead.

The second reason for excluding the Americans is that Hussein himself is half British, and his mother is from the British. In order to gain the support of the British, the old king married the daughter of a British civilian officer as his queen. In the end, Prince Hussein was born.

Now when he needed to find foreign aid, Prince Hussein subconsciously turned his attention to Great Britain. Although Great Britain was no longer alive, he still had the power to survive. In the Middle East, Great Britain's reputation was much better than that of the Yankees. There are so many!

As for the United States, which he has excluded, how will he face it in the future?

Prince Hussein understands the relationship here very clearly. Now his father prefers to be pro-American. If he goes pro-American again, it will be the icing on the cake. But if he takes the initiative to bring in the British forces, it will be interesting.

In the United States, as long as he is established as the crown prince and even ascends to the throne, he can maintain the old king's pro-American policy and take over the old king's personal connections, and he will naturally get the support of the Americans.

Then Prince Hussein summoned a few of his confidants and studied the brief information of the upper-class figures in Great Britain for a long time before formulating three strategies: upper, middle and lower.

Strategies for best results:

She is looking for a marriage with an upper-class British aristocrat.

Not looking for politicians, but looking for nobles!

Looking for a marriage between a politician's family is too time-sensitive. Even if he is a prime minister, how many years can he be? It lasted for more than ten years, and then, once he stepped down, everything was gone. But the aristocrats were different. As long as they got married, the relationship between the two parties gradually strengthened over time, and this relationship could last at least forty or fifty years.

So he had to find a nobleman, and it had to be a British nobleman that Hussein could match.

Don't even think about princes and princesses. Even dukes and the like are excluded by Hussein. He has this self-knowledge.

Therefore, from the beginning, Prince Hussein set his sights on the level of earls, or even viscounts below earls.

And this marriage is not about who he wants to marry, but Prince Hussein plans to do it through his sister, who has the best relationship with him, Princess Haya.

He betrothed his sister to a certain aristocratic child, and established a relationship through this relationship. After the marriage between the two families, he established connections in Jordan, opened the market for the aristocratic family's business, let their industry enter Jordan, and used the old British brand The connections between nobles came to put pressure on his father.

Central strategy:

If your sister cannot get married, you can just get acquainted with a certain noble. Whether it is opening the market, directly giving benefits, or even selling a little profit, you can let the other party help him stand up, so as to achieve the best policy.

And the next step:

There is really no other way, so find a marriage with a rising political family, and try to make it quick first. If you can increase your strength, you can increase your strength. You can't sit back and wait for death, right?

In this way, Prince Hussein and his henchmen soon discovered an extremely eye-catching target!

There was a well-known Earl named Alan Hill, but he was outside the aristocratic circles of London.

They are what London aristocrats call a "hillbilly" family.

But this country bumpkin noble seems to have a remote territory, but the relationship behind him is extraordinary. He can directly contact Boss Cha.

Isn't this interesting? !

Moreover, Prince Hussein also obtained a list of British military suppliers in the Middle East through his connections in Kuwait, and Allen's name was on it!

Regardless of whether the cans he sells are on the market or not, let's put it this way, as long as he can enter the ranks of military suppliers, it doesn't matter at all. No matter how rubbish he sells, it is still a representative of his identity!

Contact with him will not arouse strong resentment among Americans.

In addition, Allen's age is just right, only in his twenties. Although he is an earl and his sister seems a bit high-spirited, Haya's status as a real princess can always give her extra points. In addition, When the time comes, I will open a lot of conveniences for him in Jordan, and even tax revenue can be used to give him more subsidies in other names.

Although Prince Hussein didn't know all about the Earl's products, the few items he knew happened to be not high-end products. There were so many refugees in the Jordanian market, which were enough to satisfy his appetite. Anyway, as long as the profit was If you give him enough, Prince Hussein won’t believe that he can’t win this one!

Looking at it this way, such a goal is really in line with Prince Hussein's plan.

However, this earl is usually difficult to contact, and at this time, Prince Hussein's sister called him and wanted the eldest brother to go to London to visit her, celebrate her birthday with her, and ask for money!

Prince Hussein hesitated for a long time and was still worried about how to contact Allen. When he arrived in Britain and read the newspaper, he discovered that the old Earl Spencer was dead!

And according to the information he learned, Allen once said in a media interview that he and Diana were relatives. In other words, he would definitely go to the funeral of old Earl Spencer!

Therefore, Prince Hussein hurriedly wrote an application report and handed it to Boss Cha, saying that he had admired the Spencer family for a long time, and this time he came to London, it happened to coincide with the funeral of the old earl, and he must go no matter what. join.

Then he and his sister successfully met Allen at the funeral. Although they didn't exchange a few words at the time, they finally got to know each other.

In the end, until today, even if he comes to the banquet, he still brings his sister with him, and this is the idea.

But from beginning to end, according to Prince Hussein's secret observation, it seemed that Earl Allen rarely set his sights on his sister.

This is not possible!

It's one thing to agree or disagree, but it's another thing to say it or not. Prince Hussein is ready to take the initiative, and he won't have a chance for a while!

"Ahem. Mr. Allen, how old are you this year? Haha, I remember we are about the same age, right?"

Most of the nobles in Great Britain keep their information extremely confidential. Being able to collect a rough idea is considered very powerful, but Hussein still used this as an excuse to change the subject.

"Huh? I'm six years younger than you. I was born in 1968."

Allen knew how old Hussein was and directly stated that he was a few years younger than him.

"Oh? Your Excellency is only 24 years old, haha. My sister is already eighteen years old this year, Haya. Why are you hiding so far away? Come on."
