"Report! The Farouk Dynasty has restarted the war on our border!"

Nashadir frowned, and anger suddenly surged into his heart: "This is the seventh time this month!"

He got up and left Marisa's gentle land.

"Is it true that Farouk is not a member of the Arab League? This time we must let Farouk know the consequences of angering us!"

Marisa looked at the impulsive Nashadir and knew that she could not stop him from achieving his career. However, as Nashadir's wife, Marisa could not help but said: "Master, please be safe. Come back."

Nashadir looked back at his delicate and gentle woman and gave her a confident smile.

He turned around and left coolly, heading straight to the administrative office in Cairo.

After Jiang Xuan left, the city of Cairo was directly handed over to him for management.

Cairo is located in the delta of the Nile River, with its back to the Suez Canal and the rear of the Suez Canal.

And more importantly, the construction of the upcoming Aswan Dam will also start here.

Therefore, in the hands of Nashadir, this extremely important city naturally became his administrative center.

When Nashadir saw the mansion, Sean, Henry, and Harris were already here waiting for his arrival.

"Nashadir, you are finally here. If you don't come again, I will be ready to rush to the front line and drive out all the people of the hateful Farouk Dynasty!"

Nashadir glanced at Harris who spoke.

He glanced again, at the quarreling map on the table, which was filled with annotations discussing plans of attack.

Nashadir frowned and said in a deep voice: "How far has things developed?"

Sean said in a deep voice: "Farooq's troops attacked the port of Alexandria, and their ultimate goal must be the Suez Canal."

"We should find a way to stop them."

"Let Farouk remember it for a long time! Let him know that there is a price for provoking us all the time!"

Everyone echoed, this coincided with Nashadir's idea, but he could not directly order the attack on Faruk.

"The point is not about Farouk, he is just a puppet. What we need to care about is Britain, he is the mastermind behind it!"

Nashadir found Alexandria on the map, a port on the Mediterranean Sea.

Some time ago, Jiang Xuan made a deal while he was here.

They gave two Egyptian ports to Britain and acquired four mines.

The important port bordering these two ports is the Port of Alexandria.

It has now become the center of one of the few Arab League trades.

A place that is economically prosperous and a great place to live.

Its importance is no less than that of Cairo.

"Britain wants to control the Mediterranean and reduce our trade space with European countries."

"You are right, their final target must be Suez Canal City."

After Nashadir considered it for a while, he said in a deep voice: "Don't rush to start a war with Faruk yet."

"Let us bring gifts to meet this puppet emperor. If he does not accept our conditions, then what awaits him is war."

After hearing this, Harris frowned and said, "Wouldn't this make us say we are incompetent?"

Upon hearing this decision, even Sean, who had always been on Nashadir's side, was a little confused.

Nashadir smiled and said: "We brought gifts this time not to seek peace, but to slap them in the face."

"Harris, Sean!"

"I order you to be the envoys this time, go on our battleship, and present a dragon fire cannon to Farouk. If the British are interested, they will know how to do it."

"If they think they can fight a dozen, we won't be afraid!"

Upon hearing this, Harris' eyes lit up.

The battleship Nashadir mentioned was developed based on Longyan's giant steam engine. Although the armor was not as thick as that of the supply ship, its speed and attack power were fully stacked by them.

Although it has not officially appeared on the Mediterranean Sea, they all know the terror of this murderous weapon.

Used in war, such a killing weapon can definitely defeat the Farouk Dynasty!



At this time, the British Prime Minister Pitt went to Prussia in person.

Now that Prussia has experienced the war, its strength has begun to slowly recover.

Especially after receiving assistance from Long Yan.

Old Peter saw a monster created by a steam engine in Prussia that surprised him!

"This...this was built by Long Yan with help from you?"

Frederick II nodded and said calmly: "Thanks to the railway built by Long Yan, otherwise the Prussian economy would not have recovered so quickly."

"It's not pretty, but it's functional."

"In just one hour, he could travel more than a hundred miles with cargo that would have taken several elephants to pull."

"Prime Minister Pete, can you imagine how shocking this is?"

Old Pete was silent, not because he couldn't imagine the shock brought by this machine.

But it's too familiar.

This will be an epoch-making invention that changes the incomparable difficulty of inland transportation!

After the invention of this thing called the train, the scale of land and water transportation has been rewritten.

Water transport is no longer the only option for transporting supplies in large quantities, there is also land transport!

Moreover, if such railway transportation was spread throughout the country, the integration and mobilization of resources would be very terrifying.

Old Peter could not imagine how much resource mobilization such a train could bring and how quickly Prussia could develop.

What he is worried about now is how far Long Yan has developed!

Although Long Yan is open to the world, how fast and how violent is Long Yan's development?

He, the British Prime Minister, doesn't know, or even doesn't understand it at all.

However, judging from the steam train built by Longyan with help from Prussia, it was obvious that they had left Britain behind by a long way.

When it comes to the application of steam engines, Long Yan has already reached a very terrifying level.

no!

This matter must be reported to Britain as soon as possible.

Let British scientists accelerate the pace of research on the application of giant steam engines.

The funny thing is that Old Pete had no idea that the steam train that frightened him so much was actually improved and manufactured.

In fact, it was the British people, Stephenson, who they looked down upon!



After Frederick II showed old Pitt around, he said: "Prime Minister Pitt, regarding your proposal of uniting against France, I don't think it is possible yet."

"Although there is chaos in France now, Prussia really does not have enough ability to start another war with France."

"We're tired enough."

"Feel sorry."

Old Peter nodded. When he saw the train that Frederick II took him to visit, he knew what the king meant.

Without Long Yan's approval, they would not start a battle in Europe for the time being.
