Chapter 611: Mediterranean side
"What does he understand?" Hao Sizhong asked curiously. Fastest update
"Go, let's talk in the cabin!" Officer Hong Xi pulled Hao Sizhong and said, followed by a lot of officers.
In the dining room (which also serves as a meeting room and an emergency room), the official Hong Xi said that Ali Pasha knew the true face of the Chinese, and everyone was surprised.
Really can't underestimate the heroes of the world.
But now it's the land of other people, it's impossible for the wind to scream immediately, but fortunately, the official Hong Xi came back, and it seems that running is okay.
"But don't worry." Hong Xiguan said, "Because I can ride horses, I am in harmony with Ali. He said he doesn't care. Now I have shared food with him. It is just a friend. Ali will not be disadvantageous to his friends."
"That's good, that's good!" Hao Sizhong said gratifiedly, at least not having to pinch his tail to run away, but he was so old-fashioned, thinking things to the wrong side: "Could it be their strategy to slow down?"
"No!" Hong Xiguan categorically said: "We are not threatening him now. He will either directly attack us, or he will have a good relationship with us. I look at Ali and will not twitch, we must be fine. !"
Later facts showed that Hong Xiguan’s guess was correct.
The truth of the matter is revealed: the political arena is changing, Ali Pasha hated Istanbul's dignitaries, fell in the political struggle, and was in a difficult situation. Although he knew the true face of the Chinese, it was better to do more than less, and Hong Xi’s official was in line with him. Mind, can't afford to dispute.
In the memorial sent to Istanbul, he only talked about the facts. He said that the other party came for friendship and trade. He was a passer-by, armed with force, and far away. He neither said good nor bad, and was judged by Istanbul.
Knowing that his situation is not very good, Ali Pasha has not been invited since that night for a while, but opened the door to convenience and let Hong Xi official go ashore to inspect the terrain!
Official Hong Xi was just sending an envoy to try. He didn't expect that the other party was so powerful, surprised and happy, hitting a snake with a stick, and borrowing more horses. What Ali wanted to send, but official Hong Xi was inconvenient to take away.
Ali kindly gave them a lot of robes and clothes, saying that they were naturally useful.
So he rode on a good horse sent by Ali, changed his clothes, together with some Southeast Army who can ride a horse, was protected by 300 horses from Ali, and explored the terrain along the way.
Ali is not afraid of what others say. If the Southeast Mansion is far away from here, what will happen to him!
Since people are visiting everywhere, it makes sense to look around.
This time Hong Xiguan was cheaper. He explored the terrain of the future Suez Canal and found that Xu Anren’s choice of road was indeed correct. Walking along the Suez Isthmus, you don’t have to worry about overflowing the canal. There are lakes along the way, which saves some work. He takes advantage of the situation and facilitates construction. .
Mercedes-Benz on the Sinai Peninsula, gravel everywhere, Tongshan bald ridge, deserted, only caravans.
With the sound of camel bells, those caravans were all armed and protected, so they dared to act.
There are bones on the side of the road from time to time, obviously this road is not safe.
The climate is hot. People in the Southeast Army knew the benefits of long robes. They found it difficult to handle the heat when wearing short-sleeved military uniforms. However, they felt unspeakably cool and comfortable when they put on the robes. Sure enough, the robes adapt to the dry and hot desert environment with little rain all year round.
Official Hong Xi didn't eat dry food either. He thought about using troops and digging canals here in the future, which would really have a lot of trouble.
To adapt to the desert climate.
Solve the supply problem, especially the water source!
Deal with the cavalry of the Ottoman Empire and tribes!
It’s not an easy task. Take the third item, dealing with the enemy’s cavalry. They come and go like the wind. The navy cannot land. Although the infantry is strong, the two-legged ones cannot catch up with the four-legged ones, and they ride horses since childhood. , No matter how you practice, you can't compete with them right away!
Just like Southeast Mansion, who would dare to fight for hegemony at sea with them!
Hong Maofan’s battleship artillery control technology is worse than that of the Southeast Mansion, but it is not as good as the Southeast Mansion has more people and more artillery ships!
There are many warships in other places, such as the Turks, but they are not as high-tech as the Southeastern Prefecture.
The Southeast Mansion has a lot of problems on land, except here, it will be equally troublesome to deal with Huangtaiji in the future.
The military uniform should be changed. Short sleeves should not be worn. Avoid water loss and sun protection. After the uniform is completed, send someone to try it out.
Water source is the most important thing, in the future, marching on the basis of water source is a principle that must be observed!
The water sources here are bitter, and the amount of water is not enough to supply the army.
According to Xu Anren's idea, he plans to dig a small canal from the Nile River to supply water!
The same is not a small project.
There are only cavalry to deal with cavalry, but our horses are definitely not as good as the opponent. Then we can only use the "dragon cavalry". The name of the dragoon sounds loud, but it is actually the musket cavalry. To face the enemy, this is the method that the Southeast Mansion came up with.
Official Hong Xi arrived at the Mediterranean from the Red Sea!
Looking at the Mediterranean Sea, Chinese people's hearts are ups and downs!
They made history!
It also created military history, which will be included in Chinese history books and military history.
They are the first Chinese army to arrive in the Mediterranean in an organized way!
It is impossible to grab the honor of being the first Chinese to reach the Mediterranean. Some Chinese have reached the Mediterranean and reached Europa, but they are the first Chinese army to reach the Mediterranean. Although there are few people, the army is still an army.
This is the honorary first marine company of the Southeastern Mansion’s visit to the Asia-Philippines five continents fleet!
The company commander of this marine company is Hong Xi officer, and the officers are platoon commanders~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The lieutenant officers have become sergeant commanders, and they have reached the Mediterranean Sea as a system, making history!
Our Southeast Army is constantly making history. We set off from the mainland, we seized Southeast Asia, we went west out of the Strait of Malacca, we reached Sri Lanka, India, the Arabian Peninsula, and entered the Red Sea. We are now on the Mediterranean Sea, looking at the lair of the rambutan on the other side of the sea. !
Today, we have very few troops coming, and tomorrow, we will be a huge fleet in the Mediterranean!
The Chinese people's hearts are ups and downs, while the Mediterranean is the same as the old waves, ebb and flow as usual, ignoring the thoughts of this small group of people.
They only stayed in the Mediterranean for one night, and then took a trip to Port Said during the day.
The harbour has a mild climate, verdant vegetation, and many Roman monuments. The boats on the pier are like forests, which is quite prosperous.
When the canal is completed in the future, I am afraid it will be even more serious.
Hong Xiguan and others didn't want to watch, they were full of bad feelings-----Where should the fort be built?
Once the canal is built, I'm afraid that the red ships and even the Turks will swarm in, and they will have to rely on fortresses to resist their attacks, not only ordinary fortresses, but also multiple fortresses.
On the way back, I didn't go the same way, and went up the Nile River.
The magnificent scenery of the Nile River makes the Chinese feel extremely shocked!
In the grip of the desert, the winding Nile River is like a green corridor, full of infinite vitality.
The blue, wide and peaceful Nile River, they also saw the magnificent Great Pyramid!
The Chinese army changed outfits, put on the uniforms of the Southeast Army, and entered Cairo City!
