December 23rd.

The northern hemisphere is cold.

In Egypt, which is located in the northeast of the Sahara Desert and on the northwest coast of the Red Sea, the weather is still shining brightly at this time.

Previously, Egypt sold the port and railway operation rights to Homo sapiens, and at this time, the headquarters of Homo sapiens has arranged a joint construction company to be responsible for the planning and construction of this project.

The location of the port is located in the southern part of the Red Sea Province of Egypt, which has a promontory called "Cape Hungkulab".

The joint construction group planned the port in the bay on the south side of Cape Hungkulab, and named it "Hung Ku Port".

At this time, Hongku Port was still a barren land, and the local area was a small fishing village, with a population of less than 500 people.

Egypt has a population of 93 million, but its population is mainly concentrated in the Nile Delta, as well as in the narrow Nile Valley Plain, and the rest of the population is not large.

The Red Sea Province seems to be close to the Red Sea, but in fact, due to the control of the subtropical high pressure zone and the lack of tall mountains or plateaus, it is not possible to form a rainfall area on the windward slope, and it is perennially dry and rainless.

For a technologically backward region, there are no important mineral resources of its own, so there is naturally not much population here.

The Egyptian side has set up a special office in the port of Hongku to help Homo sapiens coordinate local development efforts.

Of course, when it comes to coordination, there is also the intention of surveillance.

Both sides know this, but the Homo sapiens company doesn't see it, after all, some things have to rely on strength to speak.

As long as Homo sapiens' fist is hard enough, the other party will never dare to harm the local interests of Homo sapiens.

If there is no strength and deterrence, it is useless to talk about it, and when the other party should backstab, he will still not hesitate to attack.

Therefore, the foreign affairs department of Homo sapiens never talked about nothingness, but directly coerced the other party to bow its head with the help of the strength of the field support department and the defense department.

In this jungle, there is never any warmth, only naked fighting and interests.

Uphold the concept of the law of the jungle.

Implement the idea of bullying.

The use of despicable and shameless means.

is the real way to survive.

……

On the temporary pier of the port of Hongku.

Semaru, the head of the Egyptian Special Office, is standing in the corridor of a three-story container house, looking out at the sea of the harbor in the distance.

On the sparkling sea.

A giant ship is working the sea.

"This is the Haili that dug a channel in the Strait of Malacca?"

Assistant Matru hurriedly replied: "It's that ship, I heard that it is still nuclear-powered, and it arrived at Hongku Port last night, and now two 100-meter-wide offshore channels have been dug up." ”

"How powerful is this......" Semaru muttered softly, words of envy and trepidation.

At this time, the Haili was already digging at the seabed near the temporary pier, repeatedly excavating, and spitting sediment onto the tidal flats along the coast.

This area has been excavated into a temporary deep water area with a length of 2 kilometers, a width of 500 meters, and a depth of about 40 meters.

Just as Semaru was in a moment of thought, on the distant sea, three Malacca-class transport ships, escorted by three Manila-class frigates, slowly followed the channel opened by the Haili and entered the temporary deep water area one after another.

"Huh? It's ......" Semaru hastened to pick up the binoculars.

Matruh, who also picked up a telescope, quickly recognized the Manila-class frigates, as well as the Malacca-class nuclear-powered transport vessels, which have recently caused great controversy in the global maritime industry.

He quickly explained: "It was a Malacca-class nuclear-powered transport ship. ”

"It's a nuclear-powered ship again, does Homo sapiens really want to fully popularize nuclear-powered ships?" Semaru's expression was slightly worried.

After all, so many nuclear-powered ships come in and out of Hongku Port, and if an accident occurs and causes a nuclear leak, then the trouble will be serious.

But Semaru sighed secretly, the strength of the Homo sapiens company was too strong, and he had no way to stop the other party.

He continued to hold the telescope to observe, the three Malacca-class transport ships were a little different in style, one was a container ship, the other was a self-unloading bulk carrier, and a number of Sea Hawk fighters and drones were parked on the deck.

'Why are there fighter jets?' Could it be that one of them is an aircraft carrier? ’

Seeing this scene, Semaru's brows furrowed.

According to the agreement between the two sides, the port of Hongku is only a commercial port, not a military port.

However, there is a supplementary clause in the agreement, that is, to allow the warships of the Homo sapiens company to replenish, repair, and dock in the port of Hongku.

Apparently, Homo sapiens took advantage of a loophole in the protocol to convert a Malacca-class transport ship into an aircraft carrier, and then carried 60 Seahawk fighter jets and 120 drones to deploy here in the port of Hongku.

After a while, Semaru found Xu Yingcheng, the manager of the Hongku Port Management Company.

"Xu, what's going on with those fighters?"

Pouring a cup of coffee for the other party, Xu Yingcheng said with a smile: "Mr. Semaru don't worry, Malacca No. 7 is just temporarily moored here, after all, there are too many pirates in the Red Sea, for safety, we can only make this decision." ”

'Hehe, I believe you're a ghost. Semaru instantly heard the perfunctory words, and if it weren't for the fact that Homo sapiens was too strong, he would have cursed a long time ago.

Xu Yingcheng continued: "I hope you can understand our good intentions, after all, our company has a lot of nuclear-powered transport ships, and if these ships are hijacked by pirates, the consequences can be very serious. ”

Hearing this explanation, the corners of Semaru's mouth twitched slightly, and he secretly complained:

'What pirate would dare to hijack your transport ships, even America has been forced out of Southeast Asia by you, and those transport ships have also installed phalanx cannons and cluster cruise missile launchers, and the whole world has installed heavy weapons on civilian transport ships. ’

However, Semaru thought that these nuclear-powered transport ships did need to be protected by force.

He was in a dilemma for a while, and finally reminded: "Xu, I know that you want to protect those nuclear-powered transport ships, but it is absolutely not allowed to build a military port here." ”

Xu Yingcheng smiled and waved his hand: "Mr. Semaru, rest assured, our planes and soldiers will not go ashore, they will carry out escort missions at sea." ”

"I hope you keep your promises and don't embarrass me too much." Semaru said helplessly.

This is the helplessness of the weak, even if they are bullied, they have to force a smile on their faces.

In the deep water of the temporary pier, Malacca No. 7 was already moored to one side and then anchored and secured.

The Malacca No. 7 is not only an escort aircraft carrier, but also a special power generation ship, in order to strengthen the power supply capacity, a total of 6 thorium-based molten salt reactors are stuffed inside, with a total power generation of 300 megawatts.

The 300 megawatts of power generation, if operated at full capacity, will play a very important role in accelerating the initial construction of Hongku Port.

After all, if a separate nuclear power plant is to be built here, the Egyptian side will certainly not let go easily.

And the speed of construction will definitely not be able to keep up with the progress of the port project.

Directly transferring a nuclear-powered carrier as a temporary nuclear power plant is the most cost-effective approach.

With the completion of the berthing of Malacca 7, the other two Malacca-class transport ships also unloaded the construction vehicles, construction materials and daily necessities on the dock.

Fortunately, it is dry and rainy all year round, and there is no need to worry about rain and cement and steel bars, so you can store them directly in the open air.

Arriving at the port at about the same time as the transport ship, there were also a group of 500 construction workers and dozens of engineers in the construction industry.
