Wang Xuan couldn't make a decision, so he had to report back, these news, quickly through the guò telegraph network, spread to the northwest, Yang Yuanzhao was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect this, there would be such a thing in the Middle East, and thought that Germany was quite influential in the Middle East, as long as they promised to advance money, promised to send workers and machinery, and control it.

Before the small actions of the British, through the guò telegram, he also knew that the solution of the Germans was also very good, and all of a sudden the troubles disappeared, who would have thought that a wave of unevenness would arise again and again, and the British came up with a more damaging move, using small boats to occupy berths, so that large ships could not berth This method is just a means of playing scoundrels, and there are very few such cases in later generations, and it is even said that this is a pioneering feat.

Scoundrels are scoundrels, I have to say that such a scoundrel's method has put them in a difficult situation to solve, they can't catch any sore feet, the other party is legitimate, from the process to the result is legitimate, so to make it clear from the reason, it is very difficult, later generations encounter such things, or use tonnage to separate, small boats have special places for small boats to dock, big ships have special places for big ships to dock, so that this problem can be circumvented, but from the actions of the British and the reaction of the Germans, the port of Basra may be a certain distance, It's still a little more influenced by the UK, and it's not easy to make such a change.

Of course, there is also a direct legal determination that this practice is illegal, so it will take more time, and now the mainstream forces of the world are on the opposite side of Germany, although other countries that do not have personal pain will not be as hostile as France and Russia, but they will not help others.

It seems that there is no solution, the trouble has fallen into a dead knot, and the brows of the possession are tightly wrinkled, for him, the Baghdad railway is just a www.biquge.info of fun, a key to opening up an outlet for Germany in the Middle East and the Indian Ocean, as long as there is a port here, even if Britain blocks the North Sea, it is impossible to completely block the Indian Ocean, because that will not only cause a rebound in the entire world shipping, but also consume astronomical military power.

Yang Yuanzhao knew very well that in the period of World War I, in fact, the difference between the German and British navies was not so big, Britain had the advantage, and stubbornly suppressed the German high seas fleet in the port and could not come out, but Britain's home fleet almost concentrated most of the cutting-edge warships, and other places were just ordinary fleets, even early dreadnoughts, such combat effectiveness was very problematic, and there was no time to take care of the Indian Ocean and the Atlantic. The African fleet, the Indian fleet, and even the Asian fleet were drained of most of the new forces, a large number of destroyers and sailors, and their combat effectiveness was extremely limited.

If you want to realize the rise of China, relying on the power of Yang Yuanzhao, it may be completed, after all, he has more unique vision than others, and he also has the magical effect of the all-in-one machine, but it will take decades later, and most of the countries in the whole world will be involved in it at one time, directly weakening and destroying the two powers, Russia and Austria-Hungary will no longer exist after this war, and their influence on the world and even Europe will be reduced to a minimum, weakening 3 countries, and Britain, France and Germany have been weakened in it, I'm afraid the only thing that has created it is the United States.

Supporting Germany and allowing the war to drag on, even beyond 1918, is definitely an unimaginable development opportunity for China, and it cannot be given up just like that.

Yang Yuanzhao stared at Wen Jiàn deadly, but unfortunately he didn't have a clue, he was depressed, he felt uncomfortable for a while, so he simply came out of the office and walked around.

Baotou in 1912 has become a super city, with a population of more than 5 million, in this world, it is also second to none, because of the large-scale popularization of high-rise buildings, even ordinary buildings, are 6-7 floors, the framework of the city, is not particularly large, now only about 500 square kilometers, but not too regular, after all, Baotou is not a city on the plain like Luoyang, Beijing, the expansion and the ground are relatively wide, and symmetrical.

Now the farthest part of Baotou, almost the total distance is between 110-115 kilometers, a huge area, concentrated millions of people's hard work, from the northwest after the establishment, the chassis of the three provinces, Mongolia, Shanxi and Shaanxi, are in it, as a special area, Baotou left most of the schools and research institutes, the factory also left only a small part of the real yàn factory, the rest are basically scattered, the extra-large city, there are all kinds of problems, a large number of heavy industry concentrated here, not very suitable. Baotou has gradually become a central city, and the role of politics and finance is far greater than that of industry, and the neat and excellent environment has become a new promotion point for Baotou.

Unconsciously, Yang Yuanzhao walked to the outskirts of the city, which was actually a wasteland before, but with the expansion of Baotou City, it was included in the urban division, but large-scale buildings and commercial houses have not yet arrived here, some are just private houses, most of the homeowners will be covered, there is a small building specially for renting for outsiders, a 4-storey small building, which is already the limit that ordinary houses can improve, and even the fourth floor that Yang Yuanzhao saw is not a brick structure, it seems to be a simple house.

Baotou has a large population, temporary personnel are also quite a lot, some of them have a skill, can earn a relatively good salary, often choose an apartment or hotel located in the center of the city, but more is only a strength, perhaps before, they can find a factory job in Baotou, slowly promoted, but now, I am afraid that they can only do the most basic hard work, in this case, the suburbs here, it has become their choice.

Yang Yuanzhao smiled bitterly, only then did he notice that it was already dark, and unconsciously, he walked at least one or twenty kilometers, almost four or five hours, and looked back at the back, a car followed him, and there were several bodyguards hidden in different corners.

This was decided at the plenary meeting after the confrontation with Beiyang, and the Internal Security Bureau was established by the Internal Security Forces, which was responsible for ensuring the security of the high-level leaders in the Northwest, and he, as the leader and founder of the Northwest, of course enjoyed the highest level of treatment.

It seems that Yang Yuanzhao was about to walk in the direction of the car, when a young man walked down from the small building, patted another middle-aged man on the shoulder and said: "Fourth Uncle Wang, you see what I said is right, you can't increase the room now, but with our family, we use the land to borrow from the Northwest Bank, and ask the construction team to plan and build a seven-story building. You can pay off the loan in two or three years, and the rest is a net profit! ”

The middle-aged man thought about it for a while, and said with some concern: "Big nephew, say so, but is there no risk?" ”

"Of course there is no risk, Fourth Uncle Wang, you didn't listen to what the box said, do you want to break the inherent framework and build a new Baotou, Baotou will get better and better in the future, don't you see that there are a lot more people renting houses?"

The two people just talked simply, and what they said was the most ordinary, similar to this concentrated building, which became the mainstream in Baotou in the past, the 7-story building needs a foundation, the house area cannot be too small, and it is generally two or three joints, which is very common in the central city, and the suburbs really have not begun to become popular, as for what the eldest nephew said, what broke the inherent framework and built a new Baotou, it was proposed by Liu Shu, in order to let Baotou alleviate the industrial taste of the past, and gradually form a big city in the direction of politics and finance.

Yang Yuanzhao also knew about this text and slogan, and even he had given instructions, but when he heard it at this moment, it had a different taste, whether it was the expansion of housing or this slogan, it seemed to make him extremely excited, because he finally thought of a solution that had plagued him all day.

In fact, he already has a preliminary method for this matter, that is, bribery, since the British can influence the port of Basra, it is nothing more than two points, coercion and inducement, in the case of Britain and Germany, the role of coercion is not great, I am afraid it is more likely to be lure, maybe Britain just wants to find trouble with the Germans, and may not really make great efforts, but Yang Yuanzhao is sure that a world war will break out in 2 years, even with his butterfly wings, the contradictions between the two groups have been irreconcilable, and they really drag on, It must be a financial drag, and both sides are looking for opportunities to go to war.

Under this premise, the Baghdad Railway became a fulcrum for him to pry into the First World War, and in a certain way, he had to build him, even if he paid a greater price in private.

However, this kind of benefit transfer or buy-off can be done in a short time, but after a long time, his purpose will be exposed, and if the symptoms are not cured, maybe the British will use other methods to induce them, and when the time comes, the railway is half built, but it cannot continue, what should I do?

This conversation I heard by chance today made him suddenly enlightened, since he couldn't solve this problem, he simply broke the original framework, Basra is a port, but not a very large port, the throughput is not large, so that the other side can only work when the boat occupies, but if you start a new building and build another port, the sight of future generations, based on 10,000 tons, or even larger tonnage, and even introduce a new modern port with the concept of containers and ro-ro, what will you do, not only solve the immediate problem, There will also be a larger receipt.

Blessings and misfortunes rely on, misfortunes and blessings exist, in the midst of crises, there are always opportunities, he has long wanted to extend his tentacles to the Middle East, which is a territory like gold, and the oil underground, it is simply crazy, and now, unintentionally, he got such an opportunity.
