Suddenly the sound of rapid horse hooves sounded, and a scout came running from a distance.
"General, general, the Japanese envoys are coming, the Japanese envoys are coming!"
Li Yun breathed a deep sigh of relief.
Coming.
They finally came.
...
Nashadir has been at the Suez Canal for a long time.
Just started.
When he came here, he was still confused. As a Sunni, after escaping from the Safavid dynasty, he still brought many soldiers with him. Even though many soldiers ran away along the way, he still still
Fifty thousand troops followed him and successfully landed in the Gulf of Suez.
They snatched this place from the Ottoman Empire with almost no effort.
However......
When he first came here, Nashadir didn't realize how important this place was at all.
A desolation...
It's really a desolate place.
It is difficult for them to even find a place to live.
Fifty thousand troops camped on the spot.
Only then did Nashadir realize that it was not the Egyptians here who could not defeat him, but that there were not many people willing to resist.
Is it necessary?
When he first came here, he had the same idea. Why did Long Yan, who gave him strong financial and weaponry support, and the East India Company, be so interested in this small bay?
Even though this is an outlet for the Mediterranean.
However......
Soon, he realized how small his situation was.
After he had just spent a few months building a place for these soldiers to live here, the first batch of supplies from the East India Company arrived.
Nashadir was immediately shocked when he saw those supplies.
First, I was really touched. These supplies were of various kinds and extremely rich in variety. The East India Company had considered everything for them, ranging from engineering machinery to small medicinal materials and water collection facilities...
Only then did Nashadir feel that Long Yan really wanted to support his side.
Second, it’s so shocking. These construction machinery, those rakes, and those various tools from Longyan Silver Beach City, are these that Middle Easterners like Nashadir have never seen before? Shocking, shocking beyond measure. Yes.
What can these things do no matter how desolate this place is?
Third, when these aids arrived in the Gulf of Suez, they first established several ports, and then defense fortifications. The other buildings were not in great condition, and the entire military layout was already laid out. At this time,
Nashadir finally understood the ambition of that Minister Liu...
his ambition.
All over Europe!
I'm going to...
Nashadir was shocked.
Europe?
He knew how chaotic Europe was now. Could it be that Liu Shilang also wanted to join in?
sky......
In the past, no one paid attention to the Gulf of Suez, because the competition between the European powers was mainly in the Atlantic Ocean.
The Gulf of Suez, more decisively, is actually the Indian Ocean.
However, Liu Shilang took a fancy to this place at a glance.
If we say before, Europe and Asia were playing their own games.
The European powers will not pay attention to Asia for the time being, but now, it is different.
The power of Long Yan is unstoppable.
As Long Yan becomes stronger, disputes with Europe will become inevitable.
at this time.
It goes without saying how important it is to occupy the Suez Canal.
Nashadir was convinced.
The mammoth project had been started for three months under consultation between him and the person in charge sent from East India.
