These Indians originally lived in the jungle, and basically all of them were good hunters.
But now the Indians there are being persecuted by the Spanish. Their survival is already difficult, and now it is even worse.
Qin Changfeng also used grain as military pay, attracting many Indians to join the army.
"Such a unit cannot yet form combat effectiveness."
"Don't worry, Mr. Qingyang, I will definitely make these Indians an effective fighting force." Qin Changfeng promised, patting his chest.
Qing Yangshuo was still assured of Qin Changfeng's ability in military training.
The only thing on Qing Yangshuo's mind in Yuncheng right now is the Panama Canal.
"Is there any progress regarding the canal?" Qing Yangshuo knew the answer, but couldn't help but ask.
"There hasn't been much progress. Our current level cannot cut through 40-meter-deep rocks."
The Panama Canal was a very important move made by Liu Zheng in the Americas.
This move is directly related to Long Yan's development in America.
But so much time has passed without any progress, Qing Yangshuo can't help but feel anxious secretly.
At this moment, a boy came in.
"Reply from Lord Chief Assistant."
Qing Yangshuo's eyes lit up and he took Liu Zheng's letter from the boy's hand.
However, he didn't hold out much hope. After all, Liu Zheng had never surveyed the Isthmus of Panama.
Qing Yangshuo only attached a map of the Isthmus of Panama to the letter, and there was no way to explain the full picture of the Isthmus of Panama to Liu Zheng in the letter.
Qin Changfeng also had no hope. He was someone who had explored the canal and knew the difficulty of this canal.
Qing Yangshuo opened the envelope, looked at the contents inside, and his eyes lit up: "Wonderful!"
Qin Changfeng was stunned and asked immediately: "Master Chief Assistant, do you have any ideas?"
Qing Yangshuo nodded and handed the letter to Qin Changfeng. He looked at the pattern Liu Zheng drew in the letter.
Immediately he understood what Liu Zheng meant.
I admired even more in my heart, their chief assistant of Long Yan, Liu Zheng.
"Ship locks, Gatun Lake, artificial canals..."
"Awesome, this plan is designed for the Isthmus of Panama."
This plan takes advantage of the topography of the Isthmus of Panama, from high to low, designing Gatun Lake at the high level and setting up ship locks at the low level.
When the ship comes, close the rear lock at the lower level and use the characteristics of water flowing to the lower level to raise the water level at the lower level.
After raising it to a high level, open the ship lock and let the ship pass through Gatun Lake. Use the ship lock to control the water level changes in the artificial channel on the other side.
"With this plan, there will be absolutely no problem with the Panama Canal."
"Well, hurry up and get ready, this matter has to be put on the agenda!"
"Okay, sir, Long Yancheng's side..."
Qing Yangshuo waved his hand and said, "It's okay, don't you still trust me?"
Qin Changfeng nodded, immediately took Liu Zheng's drawings and rushed back to Yuncheng.
The Panama Canal issue is their top priority now.
But at this moment, the once powerful Spanish Empire is now eyeing the city built by the Longyan people in Panama.
The Isthmus of Panama is their Spanish colonial territory, how could they give it up to Long Yan!
Spanish leader Babbitt watched the night fall with cold eyes: "Brothers, prepare to charge! The hateful Longyan people must not build a city on our territory!"
