Chapter 254: Based in West Asia

Half a year later, Ye Tong led the fleet to continue to advance westward. As for South Asia City, it can only be handed over to the navy for temporary management. Until imperial officials took office.

A few days later, the flotilla entered the Persian Gulf and saw the warships of the Sabbath Empire patrolling.

The convoy escort formation immediately stepped forward and closely monitored the fleet of the Rest Empire, as long as a new situation was discovered, the warships of the escort formation could attack as soon as possible, destroy it, and ensure the safety of the fleet.

Half of the ships of the Rest Empire are armored ships, which are fully steam engine driven, and half are sail ships, which are huge, more than two hundred. However, in the face of the powerful Qin warships, the warships of the Anxi Empire did not move blindly.

In terms of tonnage, the warships of the Anxitake Empire really can't be compared, the warships of the Anxitake Empire are only more than 3,000 tons, and the warships of the Qin Army are more than 5,000 tons. What's more, ten of them are steel battleships.

Ye Tong saw it from the telescope and was thinking in his heart, could it be that the other party's steam engine was not powerful enough to drive a warship of more than 3,000 tons?

Because, among all the ships of the Rest Empire, no warship of more than 5000 tons was seen. There were a lot of guns on the warship, dozens or hundreds, and it was clear at a glance that they were solid bullets.

Solid shells had little deterrent effect on Qin warships, and basically did no damage. However, although the caliber of the artillery of the Imperial Navy is small, the ammunition is TNT, and there is no doubt about the power, and one shot can blast the opponent to pieces.

Han Xin, who was beside him, looked at the entrance to the Persian Gulf and immediately suggested: "General, a supply base should be built in this place." ”

It is better to say that it is a supply base, or it is better to say that it is a naval base. Once you have a port at the entrance to the Persian Gulf, you can ensure the safety of the city at the bottom of the Persian Gulf.

Ye Tong knew in his heart that there was a benefit of having a port in this place. But, after all, you just arrived, so you can't make enemies everywhere!

"Han Xin, General Ben also wants to, but it's not possible at the moment! Wait until you get a firm foothold in the future before you can consider it. Don't be in a hurry, be on the safe side. ”

Under the watchful eye of the Rest Empire's patrol fleet, the Qin caravan slowly entered the Persian Gulf. The Qin warships strengthened their vigilance against the resting warships that followed behind, not giving the other side the slightest chance.

Seeing the Qin warships entering the Persian Gulf, the warships of the Anxi Empire began to speed up, preparing to follow a little closer. As soon as they entered the 10-kilometer range, the Qin army immediately fired a warning shot.

When the Emperor of Anxi's warship saw the Qin army firing its cannons, it suddenly shouted, and many soldiers began to prepare to fire back. The problem was that the solid shells, which were not long enough to pose a substantial threat to the Qin warships.

An old sailor on the rest of the warship shook his head and said, "It's the other party's warning, don't get too close, otherwise the other party won't be polite anymore." ”

The artillery warning just now, the huge explosion sound, made some officers and soldiers on the warships of the Rest Empire have a shadow in their hearts, with such power, the warships of the Rest Empire have no way to do it.

In addition, in the past two years, the Anxi Empire has fought with the Qin Navy twice, and it is clear that the deterrent power of the Qin warships is clear. The ships that fled back and reported the situation of the battle immediately attracted the attention of the Imperial Navy.

The old sailor just now was a veteran who had fought with the Qin army, so he had an accurate understanding of the strength of the Qin army.

A few days later, the Qin caravan reached the bottom of the Persian Gulf.

Seeing a very simple dock, Ye Tong shook his head and smiled bitterly. However, no matter how rudimentary it is, it has to go ashore, and it is impossible for the merchant ship to continue to float on the sea.

The escort formation of the Qin army immediately docked, the soldiers on the battleship immediately landed, and the idle personnel were immediately expelled, and those who did not listen to persuasion were directly arrested.

Three hours later, 10,000 infantry went ashore to clear and expel the surrounding areas, and those who dared to resist, the Qin army had nothing to say, so they were directly arrested and thrown into the civilized school.

It took nearly two days to get the equipment off the ship.

Occupying a simple small village, the Qin army did not have the opportunity to stop expanding the area, and immediately cleared the surrounding area. The various institutions, equipment, and engineering personnel who went ashore immediately carried out on-the-spot exploration of the geographical and landform and worked out a planning map in the shortest possible time.

At the beginning of the Qin army, only a 5 km long and 5 km wide city was built in the bottom area, mainly to sell products.

Ye Tong knew in his heart that the city was definitely not big enough, but at present, it could not be built too big, and he had to stand firm. Fortunately, the empire brought a large amount of cement and building materials, and the construction speed was very fast.

Ten thousand infantry had long been ready for battle, after all, in a new place, God knows what will happen. There's nothing wrong with being careful.

The place being built is actually a desert and a disputed area. After all, in this era, this place did not have any concept of a state, it was all tribes.

Of course, hundreds of kilometers away were the armies of the Empire of Anxi, the Empire of Egypt, and the Roman Empire. It's kind of a few careless areas.

What puzzled Ye Tong in his heart was that since Ji Ai had a golden finger, why didn't he occupy these areas, because the underground in these areas was full of black gold, and it was impossible not to know!

What exactly is the reason?

Ye Tong couldn't figure it out. Although in another time and space, the oil in this region was not discovered until after World War II, could it be that the other side was a figure before World War I?

Half a month later, the Egyptian Empire sent diplomats to arrive and negotiate with the Qin army. However, the Qin army sent the people to a temporary residence and let Kui Che be in charge of the reception.

Through the communication between the other parties, I know what is the concern of Jiai? After all, as soon as the Qin army arrived, construction began on a large scale, further complicating the situation in this sensitive area.

Kui Che smiled and said, "Dear Mr. Diplomat, you are too worried. The Qin Empire's arrival here is actually a completely commercial activity, and the empire's desire to build a place for commodity trading here will not have any impact on your country at all. ”

The diplomat said: "Dear sir, the country of Lisbon (Qin Empire) has come here to build a large number of buildings, and I have to worry my country. Although it is a few areas, once the country of Lisbon settles in, it will upset the original balance."

Hehe!

"Mr. diplomat, we also want your country to trade, but we are worried about causing misunderstanding in your country, so we have decided to build a trading area in this region, so that the goods of the Qin Empire can smoothly enter the region and meet the needs of the region."

Next, Kuaicher took the Egyptian diplomats to visit the goods brought by the Qin Empire. When he saw silk, cloth, ceramics and other goods, his eyes were wider than a bull's eye, and his face was full of greed.

As soon as Kuaicher saw that there was a play, Pakistan gave heavy gifts to the Egyptian diplomats, each of whom gave two pieces of silk, two pieces of cloth, and a set of ceramic tableware and tea sets.

This made the Egyptian diplomats speechless, as the so-called cannibalism has a short mouth and a short hand. Now that we have benefited, we must not be able to engage in unnecessary entanglement.

Through understanding, Ye Tong understood that in Western countries now, silk, high-end fabrics, ceramics and other items are real luxuries, which can only be enjoyed by those rich aristocrats, and ordinary people don't have to think about it.

The diplomat returned with a gift, of course, this matter is not over, there will be people who come to negotiate, to put it bluntly, the first to come is just a pawn in the front station, and the real boss has not moved.

Subsequently, the Rest Empire and the Roman Empire sent diplomats to inquire about the situation, and Kui Che made the position and views of the Qin army clear.

When Rome heard that the Reews were coming, they were very happy, and they sent various gifts, which made the Romans leave happily, and they admired the strength of the Reese Empire.

However, for the unreasonable request of the Rest Empire, the Qin army did not pay attention to it at all.

The Rest Empire questioned the Qin Empire's idea of disturbing the region's instability and wanted the Qin Empire to immediately stop building cities. Kuaiche gave a stern statement that the Qin Empire did not take the threat of the Rest Empire seriously.

Ye Tong listened to Kuaicher's report and knew in his heart that war was inevitable. Of course, as long as a little more time is given, the cities of the Qin Empire in West Asia will be built, and the Qin army will not be afraid of anyone.

"Order, tell Han Xin to let his soldiers raise their vigilance and strictly guard against the sneak attack of the Rest Empire!"

"Yes!"

"Order, once the Resting Empire goes out with a large army, let the escort formation warships completely annihilate the navy of the Resting Empire on the Persian Gulf."

"Yes!"

The Persian Gulf does not need the navies of other countries, the Qin army can handle it. As long as the navy resting in the Persian Gulf is killed, there is basically no decent navy.

After a month of construction, the siege of West Asia was basically completed. The buildings in the city are beginning to be built in large numbers, and it won't be long before the city of West Asia becomes a bustling city. At this point, Ye Tong is full of confidence.

The internal guard came in and reported: "General, there is an operation in the Sabbath Army? ”

Ye Tong took the information and saw that it was the transfer of the Sabbath Army.

Depend on!

Before Lao Tzu made a move, the other party began to make a ruthless move, wanting to take West Asia City in one fell swoop, is it so easy?

"Did the information be sent to General Han Shin?"

"General, General Han Xin has received it."

"Order, tell Han Xin, give General Ben a hard beating, and be sure to beat the rest army to fear and hurt. There is a shortage of labor in the city of West Asia, and I hope that General Han Shin will not disappoint General Ben. ”

"Yes!"

"Tell Ou Yangming, commander of the warships of the escort formation, to immediately dispatch warships and completely destroy the base of the Rest Empire in the Persian Gulf."

"Yes!"

Kui Che next to him said cautiously: "Lord, the strength of the Rest Empire is strong, will that provoke fire?" ”

Ye Tong knew in his heart what Kui Che was worried about, but in the face of this situation, was it necessary to compromise? The honor of the empire is killed by the saber in the hands of the soldiers, not by blowing.

"Don't worry too much, old man! Although the Sabbath is strong, the honor of the empire cannot be damaged. Besides, our soldiers are full of rifles, as well as some semi-automatic, automatic rifles, and squad machine guns, so there shouldn't be much of a problem in playing peace. ”

To be honest, Ye Tong really didn't want to fight, he just wanted to do a good job in trade and make some money to go back. In the event of a war, if it is not well controlled, it will put the empire in a difficult situation.

After all, the West Asia Empire is too far away, and the area of this time and space is much larger, and a round trip is a few times, which is really too far away.
