Chapter 201 Target, Tunisia!
Admiral Jervis continued:
"Furthermore, Algiers will need an army to deal with the situation if the French people forcefully land and succeed."
"As far as I know, their Imperial Guard only indulges in drinking and seeking the company of courtesans, their combat strength won't be too strong."
"We can recruit Albanian mercenaries," said the Duke of Leeds, smelling the aroma of the tea, and spoke with an easy demeanor, "Those people are very fierce, and they also speak Arab. Most importantly, they are cheap."
Peter nodded slightly and looked at Jervis again, "How many mercenaries do you estimate we need to defend Algiers?"
"At least 10,000, but it would be better to have 15,000."
"Duke, please be careful," Consul Stuart's voice interrupted the Duke of Leeds' reverie. The latter quickly focused and walked over the gangplank, stepping onto the port of Mitidja.
