Chapter 351: A Forced Choice

Judah.

Mediterranean coastal city - Port of Haifa.

Inside a brightly lit underground nuclear bunker.

"Mr. Wood, let's be more straightforward! It's very secure here, and confidentiality is definitely not an issue. ”

The middle-aged man who spoke was a white man with glasses with a big back.

Opposite him, a middle-aged man with a hooked nose with reddish-brown hair, typical Celtic features, spoke solemnly:

"Jacob, take a look at this!"

A document was handed to Jacob, the man with glasses.

Jacob took it and looked through it.

The first page is a magnified satellite image, and Jacob, who knows the surrounding area well, can recognize it at a glance.

This is a satellite image of southern Egypt, with a dotted red line on the image.

"This is the southern canal of Homo sapiens in Egypt?"

Wood nodded: "It's part of the southern canal of Egypt, you should know that the canal from the port of Hongku to Kom Ombo has been completed!" ”

With Samod's intelligence power in the surrounding area, he naturally knew everything about the southern canal, and Homo sapiens did not hide it.

Wood looked directly at Jacob, "Don't you think this technique is very scary?" In just 32 days, they dug a canal with a length of 315 kilometers and a double channel. ”

Hearing this, Jacob was also silent, but he did not lose his mind: "Mr. Wood, although this technique is very powerful, we don't want to provoke Homo sapiens. ”

This was also what Judah was thinking at this time.

They really didn't want Homo sapiens to control Egypt, but the current situation is that Homo sapiens already controlled Egypt.

Just 12 days ago, the 233rd Field Division of the Homo sapiens Army was stationed in the Sinai Peninsula and took over the command of the Egyptian forces throughout the Sinai Peninsula (nominally in joint command).

There is also the 58th Aviation Division of the Homo Sapiens Air Force stationed in Sharm el-Sheikh (the sharp corner area on the southern side of the Sinai Peninsula) and the Red Sea Detachment of the Homo sapiens Navy in the port of Hongku.

In the past, Judah dared to engage in Egypt, and that was because the opponent's fist was not strong enough.

Now it's Homo sapiens, you can try it.

Jacob didn't want to provoke Homo sapiens.

But Wood shook his head: "I understand your concerns, but this time it's the Council's proposal. ”

Hearing the council, Jacob's face suddenly became cloudy, you must know that the Morgan family and the Rockefeller family have close ties with them, so they naturally know the existence of the council of the city on the top of the mountain.

Without Americaka's support, they would not have been able to stand in West Asia at all.

Now America is clearly asking them to take sides.

Jacob was a little helpless in his heart, they had no choice at all, looking around, there was no reliable friend at all, especially the forces bordering on land, they were all hostile relations, and now they didn't rely on America, could they go to Homo sapiens?

"Mr. Wood, what does the Board propose?"

"Homo sapiens will soon build the Second Suez Canal, and we can't stop that."

Hearing this, Jacob breathed a sigh of relief, but fortunately America still had a little self-knowledge, and did not have the arrogance to think that he could prevent Homo sapiens from building the Second Canal of Suez.

That way, it means they don't need to be cannon fodder.

"The Council decided to support the construction of the Mediterranean-Dead Sea-Red Sea Canal."

"What?" Jacob frowned.

It's not that I can't build this canal, it's that this canal is too sensitive.

As early as 1960, America had plans to open a canal in Judah, and was even preparing to use 150 nuclear bombs to blow up a canal.

Around 1970, Judah itself prepared another canal route that was relatively long but less difficult to engineer, but later the canal plan was vetoed by the United Nations General Assembly and finally shelved.

In recent years, Judah has re-proposed the construction of the Red Sea-Dead Sea Canal on the grounds that the Dead Sea is about to dry up, and has invited tenders.

However, it still avoids the sensitive Dead Sea-Mediterranean Canal.

"We have to suppress the Suez Canal and open a route that can replace the Suez Canal, for safety reasons," Wood reminded. ”

"But ......"

"The surrounding forces are handed over to us, and America has not yet declined to the point where it cannot fight." Wood's eyes flashed fiercely and coldly.

Jacob thought for a moment, and if America Kazhen agreed to help "convince" the surrounding forces, then they would be happy to see it.

And at this time, the EU should also support the new canal project, after all, they don't want to be stuck by Homo sapiens.

Similarly, Gulf countries such as the Kingdom of the Sand will not object.

After all, there is one more canal to compete, and it is also convenient for those forces who need transportation services to get more favorable prices, and at the same time avoid the phenomenon of big shops bullying customers.

Wood continued: "The second thing that comes next, didn't you discuss building a new oil pipeline with Qatar before? We agreed, but with a 33% stake. ”

Hearing this, Jacob was overjoyed: "33%? No problem. ”

This oil pipeline is actually to avoid the Suez Canal, but because it needs to pass through several countries, it has not been negotiated.

One of the biggest obstacles is that America does not want the oil and gas from West Asia to be easily transported to Europe, which will affect America's shale oil business.

Now that America agrees to this, it is not that the conscience of these pirates has found out, but that they think that Europe has almost been cut, and it is time to give them a little sweetness, lest the EU collapse directly.

Not to mention that the oil pipeline is better to operate.

One day, America sees that the EU is fattening, and it can make the pipeline have an "accident", repair it for a few months, and continue to harvest.

And couldn't Jacob see what Amerika was thinking?

Of course they do.

But so what.

Before you don't have enough strength, you'd better recognize your position, otherwise it will only increase your troubles and even burn yourself.

If America really wants to do something at that time, they will even have to actively cooperate.

Suddenly, Jacob thought of something: "Mr. Wood, the construction of the Dead Sea Canal is not difficult, but the two islands at the exit of the Gulf of Aqaba belong to the Sand Kingdom, and they are too close to the Sinai Peninsula. ”

"Don't worry, we won't allow the Sand Kingdom to take refuge with Homo sapiens, and there won't be a problem with daily sailing."

Hehe, you said that you sailed daily.

What if it's not a daily voyage?

The thought of Homo sapiens' behavior in blocking the Strait of Malacca gave Jacob a headache.

Wood thought for a moment: "So be it! I went to convince the Sand Kingdom to build a base on their island of Tiran. ”

Jacob looked at the map and saw that the two islands in the Gulf of Aqaba, near the Sand Kingdom, did need to build a military base.

"That's all there is to it."

In fact, this is just psychological comfort.

They all knew that if there was a real fight, Homo sapiens would not care about the Sand Kingdom.

The two discussed the details of the Dead Sea Canal and the Persian Gulf-Mediterranean oil pipeline.

Jacob paid great attention to these details, trying to get the benefit of Judah as much as possible, while also leaving some small loopholes that could be manipulated.

Although Wood saw this, he didn't break it, and the two sides were just cooperating with each other.

On the ventilation duct above the secret room, several cockroaches were also quietly listening to their conversation.

Definitely not leaked?

In front of the cockroaches of Homo sapiens, there is no place where they cannot penetrate, as long as humans can survive, they can penetrate.
