Nicaragua Canal

"The Panama Canal was our choice at first, but then we gave it up. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoBecause the situation here is so complicated, the British, the French, and the Americans are all staring at it, and even the Panamanians, and the Colombians, are eyeing this canal! ”

"In addition, what we need is a canal that can really be controlled by us and can bring us military, political and economic benefits! We refuse to share with any other country, anyone!" Huo Shi said solemnly.

Hearing this, Wu Guangzong nodded.

The enormous value of a canal connecting the Pacific and Atlantic oceans, especially its military value, can be seen by an individual. Neither Britain nor France can give up, and once this canal is opened, it will be no less important than the Suez Canal. No country is negligent.

Therefore, instead of being constrained by Britain, France and the United States when fighting for the Panama Canal, it is better to choose a canal passage that is relatively less difficult and can be firmly in your own hands once successful.

"Does the military mean to take Nicaragua directly?"

Hearing this, Huo Shi put down his pencil, turned around, and said with a firm expression: "Yes! Nicaragua will be the next step in our territorial expansion plan in the Americas! It is also the most critical step!"

"I'm afraid this step is not easy to take!"

Wu Guangzong, who has been in charge of the Americas for three years, is now concerned about the situation between various countries in the entire North and South America. are understood.

In particular, the countries of Central and South America, which have just been in the hands of the Western powers for less than a hundred years. Although the strength is not strong, it is deeply hated by the colonists.

With Nicaragua's military strength, it is true that it cannot resist the advance of the Huo family's army, but once it does so, I am afraid that the Huo's army will immediately stand on the opposite side of the entire Central and South American countries.

At that time, I am afraid that it will have a very bad impact on Huo Jiajun's commercial development and diplomacy in Central and South America.

Of course, these difficulties may be overcome. But Britain and France, the two world powers, may not let Huo Jiajun swallow Nicaragua so easily.

After all, a Nicaragua canal is too big.

"It's not easy. However, no matter how difficult it is, we must also move forward resolutely. Huo Shi said with a firm expression.

"Now this task is officially handed over to you in the American Military Region. It will be up to you to draw up a well-thought-out plan for the capture of Nicaragua, and the Army Headquarters, the Military Intelligence Service and the Security Service will fully cooperate with you!"

After listening. Wu Guangzong nodded. He asked with a serious expression, "What about the specific action time?"

"There is no specific time for action, everything is up to you. However, the start of this plan must be delayed after the conclusion of the Sino-US peace talks!"

Of course, this refers to the preparation in advance, and as for the specific time of action, it may have to wait until the situation in the Americas has stabilized. I'm afraid I'll have to wait a year or two!"

"I see!" Wu Guangzong nodded.

After the end of the war, the biggest and most important thing for the Huo Jiajun was to go all out to digest the land seized from the Americans, anything else. must all obey this premise.

"By the way, I've been busy with the army these days. I forgot to ask you, have the American representatives and the British representatives who participated in this negotiation arrived?" asked Huo Shi.

"The British negotiator, Henry Campbell Banneman, has arrived, and the Americans are still on their way, but in two days they should be there!"

"Where is the negotiation location?" nodded and then Huo Shi asked.

"Why don't you just be in the Chicago City Council building, I believe Americans should have a lot of feelings there!" Wu Guangzong said with a smile.

"Oh, so be it! I'm also looking forward to seeing the expressions on the faces of the Americans!"

"By the way, I forgot to ask you just now, you transferred 1.5 million blacks to South America, what about the remaining 2 million?" Wu Guangzong patted his forehead and asked.

Hearing this, Huo Shi narrowed his eyes and said expressionlessly: "The rest will all be transferred to Alaska, where more workers are needed for development!"

"Alaska?!" After hearing this name, Wu Guangzong suddenly became silent.

With the harsh climate of northern Alaska and the wild and undeveloped land, more than two million black people have passed, and I am afraid that they will not be able to lose much in ten years!

However, Wu Guangzong didn't say anything, after all, compared to those blacks who could go to South America, more than two million blacks did not contribute much to the Huo family's army.

Moreover, if they don't have to go to Alaska, which has a harsh climate, a wilderness, and a very high mortality rate, to engage in development, do you still want to let Huo Jiajun's own people go?

In this era when the winner is king, and the whole world is filled with the law of the naked jungle, mercy and sympathy, which are for their own people, can only conquer and plunder externally, otherwise there will only be weakness.

"However, although we let them go to Alaska, we will not oppress them like we did to the natives of the South Seas, food, housing, use, and wages will not be less, as for whether they can adapt to the climate of Alaska alive, it depends on their own creation!" Huo Shi said in a low tone.

After Huo Shi finished speaking, there was an unspeakable silence in the office.

After a long time, Wu Guangzong continued to ask: "The development of our American territory also needs a large number of laborers, why don't you leave some behind?"

"There were 500,000 Indians in the development of the American territories, and there were slave laborers from the South Seas, and even the Latins were much better integrated than the blacks!"

After listening to Huo Shi's words, Wu Guangzong nodded with a slightly gloomy face and didn't say anything more.

As a high-level military member of the Huo family, he has accompanied the Huo family army all the way to today, and he knows the concept of the nation and the country in the young master's heart.

If he could, Huo Shan would prefer that there would be only one nation in the entire Huo family's army, or even in the entire future country. He doesn't need any ethnic diversity. And that's what he's going to do in the future, of course, some fusions are gentle, while others are accompanied by violence and gore.

..........................................

Just as Luo Fenglu, Foreign Minister of the Chinese People's Military Council, and US Secretary of State Frederick Theodore Forrylingheiten, British Deputy Foreign Secretary Henry Campbell Banneman, and foreign ministry observers from France, Germany, Italy, and other countries were preparing for Sino-US peace talks.

The Egyptian British army, which had been preparing for more than three months and had reassembled millions of troops, squeezed towards the Egyptian rescue in the middle from the north and south, like a pincer.

For a time, swords and guns were like a forest, flags were rolled, and soldiers like a tide launched a fierce collision on the earthy yellow land of Egypt.

Almost in a matter of days, the clouds of war that had been gathering over Egypt for more than three months exploded again.

After the end of the million-dollar war between China and the United States, another war with more than one million troops began in Egypt's sand-strewn land.

"Tick-tock......!"

The Huojia Army's Dragon's Tooth Special Forces Headquarters, which has been moved from the original desert town to Cairo and is responsible for commanding the entire Egyptian operation, has become extremely busy with the outbreak of a new round of Anglo-Egyptian war.

Staring closely at the large map of Egypt on the wall, Huo Zhiguang's brows turned into a pimple.

"What's the matter? Are you still worried about the war on the front line?"

Wang Cunguang took the telegram he had just received, walked in from outside the door, and after noticing Huo Zhiguang's expression, he couldn't help but ask with a smile.

"Hmm!" nodded.

"The British are menacing this time, I don't know if these Egyptian troops we have been training for three months can stop them?"

After finishing speaking, he glanced at the telegram in Wang Cunguang's hand and asked, "What's new?"

"This is the telegram that Guo Yu just sent, and they have successfully put the mine into the waterway of the Nile estuary!"

Hearing this, Huo Zhiguang raised his eyebrows, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.

Hurriedly stretched out his hand to take the telegram in Wang Cunshan's hand, and after reading it quickly, he couldn't help but nod with satisfaction, "That's fine, at least within three months, the British warship won't be able to come up!"

"Yes!" At this moment, Wang Cunguang's face was also full of emotion.

"Fortunately, when the British relaxed the blockade, they asked the military headquarters to send 200 mines, otherwise this war would be really difficult to fight!"

Hearing this, Huo Zhiguang also nodded in agreement.

Because of the differences in the environment, more than 90 percent of the country's politics, economy, and population are concentrated on both sides of the Nile River, which is rich in water sources, flat terrain, and developed industry and agriculture.

If the Nile could not be defended, then the warships of the British Navy would be able to easily move south along the Nile and attack the cities on both sides of the river at will, and if this was the case, I am afraid that Egypt's defeat in this war would be sooner and faster.

"If only we could control the coastal defense fortress in Alexandria!" Although he knew that it was impossible, Wang Cunshan couldn't help but fantasize about it.

"Okay, don't think about that! if we really want to take control of Alexandria, then it will be the British Navy, not the British Army, that will deal with us. In addition, what we want is to use the Egyptians, weaken the power of the British, keep their attention focused on Africa, and buy time for our own development, but we are not really fighting any national war for the Egyptians!" Huo Zhiguang said in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Wang Cunshan nodded, "I know, it's just a little emotional!"

"Now, I don't know what the situation is at the front?"

After listening to his words, Huo Zhiguang was silent for a while, then looked at the map of Egypt on the wall and said: "The British ** team in the south is just some miscellaneous cards, I don't worry about it! Now it's mainly the north!"

"Let's hope our tactics work!" (To be continued. )u
