Nashadir looked at the map and wondered who wouldn't be interested in this area.
The Nile Delta is rich in land, and Britain has colonized there for a long time and built the cities there very well.
Now go pick it up yourself...
Nashadir was silent for a few minutes: "Isn't this a bit unethical?"
Jiang Xuan was slightly surprised, this could not be Nashadir's character: Will you talk about morality with France or Britain?"
"It was you who asked me to carry out sneak attacks and ambush in the first place. How happy I am."
"Have you forgotten all about it?"
Nashadir looked embarrassed and said, "You Long Yan have an old saying, soldiers are crafty."
"That's not what I meant."
Jiang Xuan was stunned. You knew it and said it was immoral to pick up leaks.
Nashadir added: "What I want to say is, if we go to pick up leaks like this, what if we are attacked by others?"
"Our troops can still hold the Suez Canal here, but if we occupy Cairo, our troops will be spread too widely and it will be easy for them to be defeated one by one."
After hearing this, Jiang Xuan suddenly understood that this was the case.
Indeed, it would be immoral to pick up leaks like this. It would be too immoral for Long Yan. How could he have such an idea?
"You can't pick things up like this, it's too immoral." Jiang Xuan nodded in agreement with Nashadir's words.
But they must not give up the city of Cairo to the French and British.
You can't do this kind of thing where the other party takes advantage of you.
Jiang Xuan looked at the current map of Egypt.
Because this is basically a desert, there are only a few cities that are strategic, and there is not much significance in occupying other places except for the more important ones.
The current forces in Egypt, including Long Yan, France, Britain and several large and small forces, the situation is quite complicated.
Now that the war between Britain and France breaks out, Britain and Long Yan passively become allies and help Prussia fight against the Franco-Austrian Alliance.
"etc."
"British Alliance... Franco-Austrian Alliance!"
An idea flashed in Jiang Xuan's mind, and he realized it in minutes. A smile appeared on his face and he looked at Nashadir.
Nashadir was stared at so hard that his back bones trembled: "What do you want to do?"
Jiang Xuan showed a meaningful smile and raised his eyebrows: "I was wondering if there is a possibility..."
"No!" Nashadir immediately refused.
Jiang Xuan was stunned, not knowing what Nashadir was thinking, and then said: "I mean, what if we help Britain occupy Cairo."
"Are you saying that Britain is too embarrassed to think about taking action on her own?"
Nashadir was stunned when he heard this. This... was a little different from what he had just thought.
But for this strategy, Nashadir narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a smile: "Okay, that's great."
Jiang Xuan and Nashadir looked at each other with foxy smiles.
...
At this time, Dick, the general on the British side, frowned.
The battle ahead was tense, because Britain and France were competing at sea, and the number of British troops in Egypt was not too large.
This allowed the French to take advantage of the situation.
Cairo fell because of this, and both sides paid a heavy price.
In this counterattack, Dick managed to mobilize 10,000 men from the British colony in Egypt to attack Cairo, which continues to this day.
The forces on both sides are also stretched thin.
Although both sides possess abundant artillery and weapons.
