Not only Jiang Xuan, but also Xie Chan couldn't stand it anymore. After staying in China for a long time, she thought that working people all over the world were equally hardworking, but the people here were really beyond her expectation.
The speed of this group of people is only one-third that of Long Yan's workers. The original construction period was two years. If this continues, it will take six years to complete the construction.
"I think they are living too comfortably. Just hire some supervisors and whip them a few times." Xie Chan said angrily.
"There's no rush, just let them play slowly. Anyway, they can't build it now."
Liu Zheng said with a smile.
"What do you mean?" After hearing Liu Zheng's words, both of them had question marks on their foreheads.
"Don't forget, we are not the only ones here, Britain and France are also watching here."
Liu Zheng said lightly.
Liu Zheng is not the only one who is interested in the value of the Suez Canal. Britain and France are both eyeing this place.
According to intelligence, France had just suffered a major defeat in Alexandria, Egypt, and since they were secretly supporting Nashadir, they should not take any action. However, Britain was different.
They did not hesitate to offend France and forcefully entered Egypt. Their goal was their own Suez Canal. Watching the Suez Canal and the surrounding Suez Fortress being slowly built, they were undoubtedly the most anxious.
As long as their thinking is normal, they will definitely launch a wave of attacks on Suez before the fortress is built.
And coupled with the previous hatred for Australia... As the world's empire on which the sun never sets, would you be willing to watch an important place like Suez being chiseled away by the dragon's flames?
Of course not!
Suez is the threshold for Longyan to enter Europe!
Therefore, Liu Zheng is not thinking about repairing the canal at all now. All he can think about is the war with Britain.
Although in Tahiti, Australia, Long Yan's army pushed the British army to the ground and rubbed it, the situation is different now, and the last war cannot be used as a reference.
In that time in Australia, although both sides were expeditionary forces, the Long Yan Army was closer to the mainland and was fully prepared, so it was natural for them to win the battle.
Also, the last Australian war was a head-on confrontation between Longyan's army and the British army: Longyan's soldiers were all well-trained elite generals, while British soldiers were more of "pioneers"
, the basic combat capabilities of both sides are not at the same level...
But this time, Long Yan's many advantages are gone.
After the last great defeat, today's Britain must have been carefully prepared. Looking around the world, Britain is the only country that has come from behind in the Industrial Revolution.
Why?
It's very simple, policy support.
Although in this world, the industrial revolution started with Long Yan, you can't stop Britain's policy support and the country's full support.
Liu Zheng has been doing research on this issue.
Why?
Why was Britain able to catch up with Long Yan in the Industrial Revolution? It was not just the policy and atmosphere, but more importantly, the fact that they were not bound by Long Yan's thousands of years of traditional culture. This was very important.
Look at Long Yan, until now, there are still many people shouting to protect the emperor, boycott simplified Chinese characters, and boycott vernacular Chinese.
At this time, isn’t the traditional culture that we should be proud of a kind of poison?
It is affecting the cultural outlook of Longyan people.
But what about Britain...
The history of Western countries itself is relatively monotonous.
