Sean also understood that they were in such a good situation now because of the Dragon Flame people, and even Nashadir was from the Dragon Flame side.
Now when negotiating terms with Long Yan, they don't even have the chips in their hands.
...
At this time, on the other side of Egypt.
The British army led by Dick saw the defeat of the French army.
He did not pursue the victory. According to the agreement, he had already recovered the three mineral veins lost by Long Yan.
That's enough.
If they continue to pursue the victory, they will lose more than they gain.
Dick also got the port he dreamed of being together.
But when I think of the price that Britain paid in this war, I feel a huge pain.
The cavalry lost nearly a thousand men and countless artillery shells.
Moreover, this war was fought for the Longyan people, which made him somewhat unacceptable.
But it's all over now.
They've got the port, that's enough.
However, after Dick led his troops back, his spies reported to him information that he did not want to hear at all.
The Longyan Army took advantage of their attack on the French army and headed south along the Nile River.
Directly attack the French colonial area. According to the news half a month ago, they have already gone to the five cities in the French colonial area.
The current situation is still deepening, and according to reliable information, an uprising broke out within the French colonial area.
Now the French Colony is in chaos!
After receiving these two pieces of information, Dick's chest heaved violently. He never expected that Jiang Xuan would play this trick with him.
This time, their British troops not only fought a war for Long Yan for free.
It also helped them contain their troops, allowing Long Yan to gain huge benefits in the French colonial area. It is even possible that Long Yan would take this opportunity to annex the French colonial area.
Thinking of this, Dick's heart felt like a knife.
"Dark, this is so dark!"
Dick glared at the spy and said in a deep voice: "Why are you telling me such important information now?"
The spy replied: "The French have blocked the news, and we just learned about it."
Dick sneered and sat down tiredly. The French were afraid that they would also attack.
No wonder they were defeated so quickly this time when fighting the French.
It turned out that there was a problem in the colonial area.
Dick sighed. If the British troops could continue their attack, they would still be able to take a bite of the French colonial cake.
But now it's too late.
After withdrawing troops, it will not be so easy to send troops again.
The more he thought about it, the harder it was for Dick to swallow his breath. He looked at the map and saw the area of Longyan.
"The Dragon Flames fight against the French!"
"Then we will take advantage of this opportunity to move into Cairo and regain control of the Suez Canal!"
Dick said harshly.
They are now allies with Long Yan. If they do this, they will provoke a fight between their allies.
"Chief, I'm afraid this is not good, right?"
A minister stood up and said.
Dick snorted coldly and said in a deep voice: "What's wrong? Cairo is originally our territory. We are just lending it to Long Yan temporarily. Don't forget how Jiang Xuan promised us in the first place!"
