Land reclamation has been around for a long time. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The Dutch were once the leaders in this area, and since the 13th century they have been reclaiming land and even bulldozing all the hills in the country to obtain soil.

Qin Zhiyuan has seen a data before, Japan also began to reclaim land after World War II, a total of 200 square kilometers of land from the sea in 50 years, equivalent to two and a half Hong Kong Island, which made the Japanese proud, and was widely publicized by the Japanese government as a representative of Japanese creativity.

After the rise of the republic, the Japanese immediately shut up, and the republic began to reclaim land from the sea in the 50s and 60s of the 20 th century, and by the beginning of the 21 st century, an average of 230 to 40 square kilometers could be filled out every year.

In the new century, the Republic of China has intensified its efforts to reclaim land from the sea, the most important direction of which is the South China Sea.

Huang Fugui's abacus was good, but when he arrived at Qin Zhiyuan, he was immediately dismissed.

Qin Zhiyuan is very clear about the consequences of land reclamation, the Dutch were the pioneers of land reclamation, but the Dutch were also the first to taste the bitter fruits of land reclamation, and in the 21st century, the Dutch had to turn the land that they had worked so hard to fill back into the ocean, and the former "man conquers the sky" has become the biggest joke in the world.

From a practical point of view, there is no need for Lanfang to reclaim land.

Lanfang is not a country with a narrow territory like the Netherlands and Japan, Lanfang has a vast territory, and there is no defensive pressure similar to the republic, so Lanfang does not need to reclaim land, in order to get a complete forward base to deal with the British, he will make Moon Bay a steel fortress, which is definitely not worth the loss.

This is not to say that the British are not worthy of Lanfang's attention, or that "home" issue, Asia is Lanfang's home field, and in Asia, Lanfang does not need to fear anyone, not even the British.

Although Huang Fugui's request was not met, Huang Fugui was not discouraged.

In the past, when I was in the Republic of China, there were many things that could not be implemented due to various objective reasons, and if this little thing could discourage Huang Fugui, then Huang Fugui would have already been so angry that he would have returned to the West.

Huang Fugui handled government affairs very well, and after arriving at Moon Bay, Huang Fugui immediately took on all government affairs, so that Dou Yongyi could devote himself wholeheartedly to the training organization. By the end of April, Dou Yongyi's pilots had fully adapted to the performance of the "Kangaroo", and Lan Fang's airborne troops finally had full combat effectiveness.

In fact, by the end of April, the number of "kangaroos" in Dou Yongyi's hands had been further expanded to 60, and if all of them were dispatched, they would be able to throw a regiment of airborne troops and their equipment into the Persian Gulf at one time, and this would play a greater role in the local battlefield.

At 5 o'clock in the morning on May 3, according to Qin Haoge's plan, the Syrian army crossed the Syrian-Iraqi border and launched an attack on the National Guard Forces in Iraq.

The forces involved in the attack included two divisions of the Lanfang Foreign Legion, as well as three infantry divisions made up of Syrians.

Among them, the Lanfang Foreign Legion is responsible for attacking the city, and the Syrian army is responsible for logistics support, with a clear division of labor and clear powers and responsibilities.

Because of the employment of the French, the Lanfang Foreign Legion used all the French military equipment, and they were all "old" goods during the world war, in order to ensure the combat effectiveness of the troops, Qin Haoge still applied for the transfer of a batch of "Matador" armored vehicles, which became a sharp weapon for the Foreign Legion to attack the city.

The terrain in the Middle East is flat, except for a few oases, most of the area is either desert or Gobi, which is very conducive to the combat effectiveness of armored vehicles. Because of the defense of the British, the Iraqi military did not have many heavy weapons, and even the defense capability of armored vehicles could run rampant in Iraq, which made the combat effectiveness of the Lanfang Foreign Legion directly burst.

"Oil, I need more oil!" Qiu Tianyou, commander of the 45th Regiment of the Foreign Legion, circled around in the command car and lashed out at Chief of Staff Robinson Wright.

Qiu Tianyou commanded a semi-mechanized infantry regiment, and the regiment was equipped with a lot of vehicles, and even the infantry had cars to transport them, which made Qiu Tianyou's troops have strong combat effectiveness at the same time, and at the same time, they became more and more dependent on logistics.

"Captain, don't shout, the tanker truck is still a hundred kilometers away—" Robinson Wright sat at the table and plucked his ears out in boredom, ignoring Qiu Tianyou's angry roar.

"Is this Azhar a pig? Even if he climbed, he couldn't climb so slowly! Qiu Tianyou didn't choose what to say, of course, it was more likely to be intentional.

The Persian "pig" is definitely a very "sacred" animal, and scolding a Persian as a "pig" is tantamount to picking up the ancestral graves of the Chinese, and Qiu Tianyou's mouth is also lacking in morality.

Al-Zhar was the commander of the 3rd Syrian Division, and in Qin Haoge's plan, Ayzhar's 3rd Division was responsible for the logistics of Qiu Tianyou's troops.

Long before leaving, Qiu Tianyou had complained a lot about Qin Haoge's arrangement, worried that Azhar's troops would not be able to keep up with the rhythm of the 45th Regiment, but now it seems that it is indeed right.

However, it is no wonder that Azhar, there are not many troops in the world who can keep up with the rhythm of the Lanfang army, and sometimes there will be chaos during the internal exercises of the Lanfang army, not to mention these Persians who have just put on the military uniform.

"If you're in a hurry, you can concentrate the gasoline in the truck and put it in the armored car—" Robinson Wright suggested anyway.

"Gasoline - change it, hurry up!" Qiu Tianyou's eyes lit up immediately.

If it is a tank unit, this method is useless, because Lanfang's tanks are all diesel engines, and it is useless to pour gasoline into them, but armored vehicles are no problem, Lanfang's armored cars are also gasoline engines, and the gasoline used by trucks is common.

"I'm just saying-" Robinson Wright immediately regretted that if Qiu Tianyou really led the armored vehicles to go first, then Robinson Wright would have to stay where he was and wait for the logistics troops, which was not a good errand.

"That's it!" Qiu Tianyou has the power alone.

Soon, the remaining fuel in the truck's fuel tanks was concentrated into thirty "matadors", and Qiu Tianyou changed to an armored car and led all the armored vehicles away, leaving only Robinson Wright and the infantry staring wide-eyed.

Oh, and the artillery, the artillery of the Foreign Legion was also towed by trucks, and now it is all discarded as a "burden".

Robinson Wright, who was "abandoned", was not idle, and immediately reported the situation of the troops to Qin Haoge.

Now this situation is very abnormal, Qin Haoge is based on the map provided by Steven Streich to make the battle plan, because Steven Streich has died, the British have the intention of expanding the war, Qin Haoge's current goal is not only the first division of the Iraqi National Guard, but all the troops in Iraq, Qin Haoge wants to completely defeat all the Iraqi troops before Angus Wollaston arrives in Iraq, and create as favorable conditions as possible for future operations.

The information provided by Steven Straitch is indeed accurate, after Qin Haoge's troops entered Iraq, only Qiu Tianyou's troops were in the air, and the other troops were captured, so far, Qin Haoge's troops have completed most of the scheduled plans, and only the first division of the Iraqi National Self-Guard, which caused all this, escaped the attack of Lan Fang's army.

Obviously, after the sneak attack on Steven Streich, Karim had a premonition that something was wrong, and led his troops to transfer, otherwise Qiu Tianyou would not have entered Iraq for 150 kilometers and had not found anyone.

If you can't find it, you can't find it, now Karim has become an insignificant small chess piece on the chessboard, even with his 10,000 people can't turn the table, Qin Haoge After getting Robinson's report, he ordered the 45th Regiment to continue to advance in depth to Iraq.

Considering the national conditions of Iraq, this country is also vast and sparsely populated, and the territory is mostly desert and Gobi, Karim can't hide for long even if he does, and more than 10,000 people always need people to eat and consume, and it is not easy to get supplies in the desert.

Karim's attack on Steven Streich, since Lan Fang already knows, then the British must have already known, since Karim has now turned against the British and lost the supplies of the British, then Karim will choose to cooperate with Lan Fang sooner or later, otherwise Karim's army will fall into a situation of running out of ammunition and food.

Just when Qin Haoge's troops were advancing in Iraq, the British were also making frequent moves.

The day after Steven Streich's attack, British Prime Minister Andrew Bernal Law told Lanfang's ambassador to the UK, Randall Becky, that Britain was about to increase its troops. This is not an increase in troops, a democracy has to consider the majority opinion on everything, and even if Andrew Bernal Law wants to increase his troops, he must first obtain parliamentary approval.

Saving soldiers is like fighting fire!

Soldiers' speed!

Andrew Bernal Law does not understand this reason, but the current political structure of Britain is such that even Andrew Bernal Law has to patiently submit proposals to Congress, and then Congress will decide whether to increase troops in the direction of Iraq.

The reaction of the British Parliament was not Qin Zhiyuan's expectation, and Andrew Bernal Law's proposal was not approved by the Parliament for the simple reason that Britain had paid 125,000 lives for the Middle East in the world war, but what did Britain get?

There is nothing left, except for those sand and sand, even if it is used as building materials, it is not qualified.

Therefore, the proposal of the Congress is to protest against the French and demand that the French exercise restraint and not expand the Syrian-Iraq war.

The British Parliament's proposal didn't even have much to do with Lan Fang, because Lan Fang's army was the one who accepted the hire, and it was just a tool.

This is also a matter of the system.

Compared with the various "hindered" British governments, the Lanfang government is much more efficient.

Qin Zhiyuan gave an order, and Lan Fang's huge machine suddenly accelerated, Lan Fang's local army began to gather, and all kinds of military supplies began to be hoarded in Moon Bay and Jerusalem.

That's right, the Lanfang government is negotiating with the French government.

When it was decided to hire Lan Fang's army, the French only prepared for a six-month period, but now that the half-year period has expired, the Syrian-Iraqi war has a tendency to expand, and it is impossible for either France or Lan Fang to withdraw, so extending the contract has become the only option.

To be honest, the French don't want Lan Fang's army to withdraw from Syria, so the Syrians will not be able to withstand the Iraqi counterattack, and the French will be defeated in Syria.

But at the same time, the French government really has no money, even if it is the employment fee of two divisions, Paris does not plan to continue to pay, and the French are playing the idea of a white wolf with empty gloves.

Lu Zhengxiang is not a vegetarian, Lu Zhengxiang is a diplomat, and the appearance of diplomats is actually ugly, if his country is weak, then all kinds of groveling, if his country is strong, then it is all kinds of arrogance and unreasonableness.

In the face of the French government, the Lanfang government is indeed strong now, and there is no shackles of the "ally" relationship, Lu Zhengxiang "eats and takes cards", and that face is also a living bully.

In fact, France has nothing to worry about Lan Fang now, Lan Fang wants French Indochina the most, but the French will definitely not give it, and Lu Zhengxiang will not be bored, so the negotiations are back to half a year ago, and Lan Fang asked for guarantees of interests in Syria.

In other words, Lan Fang demanded the partition of Syria with France.

It sounds a bit shameless, Lan Fang is a hired "tenant", but now he is seeking the land of the "landlord's family", Lu Zhengxiang's face should not be too ugly.

However, if you think about it carefully, it is more realistic, France is now powerless to protect Syria at all, if there is no Lan Fang army to join, the French may have been driven out of the Middle East now, since the French have no money now, then they have to compensate Lan Fang from other aspects.

The lives of Lanfang soldiers are also precious, and if there is no suitable reason, Lanfang soldiers will not fight for irrelevant people, even if it is the Foreign Legion, they are the property of the Lanfang Military Department.

To this extent, the French know that they regret it, and they really know why they bother now, if it weren't for the Americans to get in the way, then Lan Fang wouldn't have done so much now.

In the final analysis, the reason why they have fallen to this stage is that the French are too short-sighted, or that this is the stubborn disease of democratic politics.

Faced with the open mouth of the lion Lan Fang, the French could only give in helplessly.

The French did not fail to think of solving the problem independently, but the French parliament decided the same as the British, and it was not worth wasting the precious lives of French soldiers for the sake of the interests of the Middle East, even if oil fields had been discovered in Syria.

Moreover, the Lanfang government gave the French government a promise that the Lanfang government would guarantee that the French government would enjoy the benefits of the oil fields.

This is very tempting, that is, Lanfang and France are only divided between Syria, not Syria's oil fields, which makes the French parliament really overjoyed.

To tell the truth, Qin Zhiyuan really doesn't look down on Syria's oil, Qin Zhiyuan already has a new Baku, Lanfang also has oil fields being exploited, and now the demand for gasoline is not as urgent as in the 21st century, after getting Nikola Tesla, Qin Zhiyuan is ready to use Nikola Tesla's genius in electricity to vigorously develop electric vehicles, these factors have prompted the Lanfang government not to focus on the oil fields in northern Syria, which is exactly what the French care about the most.

In early May, when Qin Haoge sent troops into Iraq, the Lanfang government and the French government reached an agreement: the provinces of Aleppo, Raqqa, Hama, Deir ez-Zor and Hasakah in northern Syria belonged to France, and Damascus, Suweida, Dara'a and Lebanon in the south belonged to Lanfang.

At this point, the Lan Fang government finally has a reason to send troops to the Middle East on a large scale in order to protect Lan Fang's interests.

On the day the agreement was finalized, the Lan Fong government immediately announced the establishment of the Western Province directly under the Lan Fong government, with Damascus as the center, under the jurisdiction of all the territory that Lan Fong had acquired in the Middle East.

In Qin Zhiyuan's plan, the first batch of troops to go to the Western Province had a total of four divisions, two of these four divisions were from Chen Kangjian's First Army, and the other two divisions were the 16th and 17th Divisions composed of Koreans, Chen Kangjian served as the commander-in-chief.

Chen Kangjian was overjoyed by this appointment, Chen Kangjian was unwilling to serve as any governor, and the army was the place where Chen Kangjian's ability could be best brought into play.

Also for this appointment, several generals complained a lot.

At present, Lan Fang's generals are only Zhang Tianshou and Qin Haoge, Zhang Tianshou is in Jerusalem, Qin Haoge is in Syria, and now Chen Kangjian is also going to the Western Province, Ge Lifu, Xiang Ankang, and Xu Sheng are waiting for them, and even Qin Zhisheng is itching.

Qin Zhiyuan expressed his understanding of the generals' desire to fight, but it was impossible for Lan Fang to send all the generals out, Qin Zhisheng had to guard the Surabaya Military Headquarters, Xu Sheng was stationed in Wanghaizhou, and the Americans were stationed in the direction of the Philippines, and Xiang Ankang was stationed in Siam, to deal with the pressure of the British in the two directions of the Malay Peninsula and Burma.

Chen Kangjian ignored the envy, jealousy and hatred of others, and on the day he received the order, Chen Kangjian ordered the troops to board the ship.

In fact, when Chen Kangjian went to the Western Province, Qin Haoge's troops had already reached Baghdad.

Baghdad, the capital of Iraq, has been recorded in the 18th century BC, and Baghdad means "godsend" in Persian and is a famous historical and cultural city in Persia.

Before reaching Baghdad, Qin Haoge's troops successively broke several lines of defense of the Iraqi National Guard, and after arriving in Baghdad, Qin Haoge's troops were finally unable to advance, and the logistics were really unable to keep up.

Qin Haoge inferred the situation in Iraq based on the situation in Syria, which was ultimately an empirical mistake.

Compared with Syria, which lacks water resources, Iraq's water resources are still quite abundant, the city of Baghdad itself is across both sides of the Tigris River, only more than 30 kilometers away from the Euphrates River, near Baghdad, there are several lakes of different sizes such as Lake Sersar, Lake Habbaniah, Lake Khaliyah, etc., from Mosul to Baghdad, the first line of water resources is abundant, and the agriculture in this region is also relatively developed, and it is one of the few oases in the Middle East.

This also made Qin Haoge lead the army into Iraq, from the beginning of Mosul constantly need to divide the troops to garrison, the troops were constantly dispersed, and finally when the forward arrived in Baghdad, Qin Haoge found that his troops were no longer able to attack.

In fact, so far, the strategic goal set by Qin Haoge has been basically achieved, except for the first division of the Iraqi National Guard Force, which has not been discovered, and the other units have basically been defeated or annihilated, and in the entire territory of Iraq, only the 11th Division resting near Amara can be regarded as maintaining a complete structure, and this 11th Division, the division commander is Yang Deshan.

After Qin Haoge besieged Baghdad, Yang Deshan's troops were no longer able to watch from the sidelines, and now Yang Deshan had led his army from Muthanna to Amara, preparing to "meet" Qin Haoge's troops.

It was said that it was "to meet the attack", but in fact Yang Deshan's troops had no intention of preparing for battle at all, and all the heavy weapons were even left in Muthanna by Yang Deshan, and they were not carried at all, which was ready to flee at any time.

It's a pity that in the face of Yang Deshan, who wants to refuse and welcome, Qin Haoge has more than enough strength but not enough strength, even if he can still draw out a regiment of troops now, Qin Haoge will follow Yang Deshan to attack Saudi Arabia.

The war has reached this point, and it has basically fallen into a state of stalemate, Qin Haoge wants to attack but his troops are insufficient, and now he can only wait for Chen Kangjian to bring reinforcements from Lanfang himself; The Iraqis want to defend but are tempted, and now they also need to wait for Angus Wollaston to arrive in the Middle East to take charge of the situation.

In early May, a week after launching the attack, Qin Haoge finally met Yang Deshan.

Yang Deshan followed Qin Mu to see Qin Haoge, in order to hide people's eyes, Yang Deshan also put on makeup, and changed from the "prophet" of the Brotherly Alliance to the driver of the Foreign Legion.

After seeing Qin Haoge, Yang Deshan was emotional: "Marquis Wulong, long time no see-"

Marquis of Wulong, this is Qin Haoge's title, and Qin Haoge was also among the marquis when he was knighted in Lanfang.

"Haha, Tokuyama, your viscount is estimated to be going up one liter." Qin Haoge was also a little excited.

Yang Deshan was not ranked at all in the first knighthood after the founding of Lanfang, and later because of his contributions in North Africa, Yang Deshan was named "Viscount". But now it seems that a "viscount" is obviously not enough to reward Yang Deshan's merits.

"Hehe, thank you for your blessing." Yang Deshan was also very proud when he mentioned this.

It is indeed very enjoyable to be a "prophet" in the Brotherhood Alliance, but this is rootless after all, without Lan Fang's support, Yang Deshan, the "prophet", can't do anything, so Yang Deshan is very urgent.

"Master Hou, let's fight, now the Iraqis have no power to fight back, that old guy from Angus is still in Kuwait, he doesn't dare to come at all, as long as Master Hou makes up his mind, Saudi Arabia is at his fingertips." Yang Deshan is still radical.

"Don't worry, wait, didn't the British stop Wuding Gong in the Gulf of Aden, wait and see, the British will definitely be unlucky, as for Saudi Arabia, don't worry, don't worry, you wait to see what is called a divine soldier descending from heaven." Qin Haoge has confidence.
