"Sir, the information is accurate. Please direct the next step, sir."
Sashar didn't seem to hear these words, he only felt that the earl he was about to get was about to float away.
That port city is no less important than Cairo. That city is an important bridge between France and Africa.
It is a backup port city to prevent countries such as Long Yan and Britain from cutting off their sea routes.
"It's over..." Sashar suddenly lost all his strength.
I was still thinking about how to claim credit from Louis XV, but now I have no hope at all.
"Sir, sir, what are your next instructions?"
At this moment, a scout rushed in and said breathlessly: "Report to the commander, there is an urgent military situation."
Sashar laughed miserably, what happened today? Why is there another urgent military situation?
"I understand. Has our city been captured by Longyan?" Sashar said helplessly.
If this were the case, there would be no need to fight his own battle, and he could just admit defeat when encountering Long Yan.
Long Yan's troops are all in the Suez Canal.
You said that he sent troops from the Suez Canal to sneak attack on his port city. Although the distance is a bit far, it is not a big problem for an emergency march.
But other cities are very far away from the Suez Canal.
Unless these Long Yan people had wings, how could they possibly capture both of their cities in one day.
"Uh...sir, this time it's not about dragon flames."
Sashar was stunned for a moment, lost some energy and asked: "What military report? Tell me."
"According to observations, the British army is not far from us now, although it is possible for them to come over."
"If we lose this place now, we won't have the shame to go back to France."
When Sashar heard this, his eyes regained some brightness.
Yes, if they are lost here again, there is really no need for them to go back to France.
Although the war situation in America has reached a stalemate and is isolated and helpless, America has finally won a gold mine.
By capturing a British port city, they could turn their disadvantage into an advantage.
But as for myself, not to mention the heavy losses in occupying this city, I also lost a very important city.
If this city is losing its reputation now, how can I have the shame to return to France?
Sashar suddenly became energetic, walked quickly to the map of Cairo, and said anxiously.
"Quick, tell me, where are those Britons now?"
The soldier immediately pointed out the locations on the map, and Sashar frowned as he looked at these locations.
The weather here is very special, the terrain is very flat, and there is almost nothing blocking the view.
Sashar thought for a moment. It was unlikely that Britain would launch a sneak attack in broad daylight. Although the current army was weak.
But Britain's troops were no better.
As long as you stick to it, there won't be much of a problem.
But the most important thing is that his own city is occupied by Long Yan, and other cities are far away, so even if he can call in support, it will take a long time.
But what I lack most now is time!
"Pass my order and guard it to the death. We must not lose this city again!"
"yes!"
The two soldiers immediately conveyed their commander's orders.
Salsa stared at the map of Egypt with a gloomy face. When he saw the city that originally belonged to him, his eyes were dazzled, and he finally changed it to the flag of Dragon Flame.
"Long Yan, wait until I deal with the Britons before I deal with you!"
…
At this time, Jiang Xuan and Nashadir had been occupying this place for some days.
"Tell me, what's going on with those French people? We've been waiting for so long, why don't they come?" Nashadir asked.
Jiang Xuan thought about it, but he didn't think of Chou Yin Mao.
Logically speaking, it shouldn't be.
This is an important French port city in Egypt. This city has been out of contact for so long, but these French people are not worried at all?
You won't be lying in ambush in some secret place, right?
The more Jiang Xuan thought about it, the more terrifying he felt.
"Is there a possibility that these French are ambushing us in the Suez Canal?"
Jiang Xuan thought for a moment and continued: "After all, the ownership of the Suez Canal is very important to France. Whether it is in the hands of us Longyan people or the British people, it is not a good thing for them."
France relies too much on the Suez Canal.
However, Nashadir looked at the military report sent from the Suez Canal today. It was calm and calm, and there was not even a trace of a Frenchman.
This made the two of them deep in thought. What on earth was the French doing? They hadn't even come back to recover the situation.
This doesn't seem like their style.
Jiang Xuan and Nashadir stared at the current map of Egypt and thought for a while.
"Cairo is also very important to us. We fought with Britain before because Cairo does not belong to us."
"So we always suffer in terms of support. I think we can rely on this opportunity to capture Cairo." Jiang Xuan thought for a moment and said.
Nashadir narrowed his eyes slightly. Cairo is a place. It is located in the Nile Delta, with fertile and flat soil. It is one of the few large-scale oasis cities in the arid country of Egypt.
Both strategic location and resources are very important.
"That's true, but our current army is not strong enough." Nashadir said worriedly.
The Britons had fought once before, and Nashadir was a little scared.
After this group of British people experienced an industrial revolution, their technical level even surpassed Long Yan in some aspects.
In addition, this is an important colony belonging to Britain. It attaches great importance to it, has sufficient combat power, and is close to the base camp.
But this place is very far away from Long Yan, and there are few ways to build a factory here to implement the technology brought by Long Yan.
Therefore, their equipment cannot be said to be bad, but it is not as good as Britain's.
Just at this time.
"Sir, there is an urgent military report!"
Jiang Xuan and Nashadir frowned and called an urgent military report. Could it be that France has invaded the Suez Canal?
The two people received the military report and felt a little heavy.
The Suez Canal is their base camp, although they are very confident that the Suez Canal will not fall into French hands.
But if the news is confirmed, it will prove that their previous suspicions were correct.
The French are doing something secretly behind the scenes.
Jiang Xuan and Nashadir looked at the military report together and were stunned for a moment. They read it several times before finally confirming the content.
"Brother Jiang, look..." Nashadir looked at Jiang Xuan.
Jiang Xuan looked at Nashadir, and the two of them suddenly showed fox-like smiles.
"It seems a little unreasonable for us not to miss this kind of God-given opportunity."
