Longyan City can be abandoned when necessary, but those supplies from America are definitely not acceptable.
The geographical location of Longyan City is too important.
This is for France and Britain.
For Long Yan, if Longyan City did not have those mining areas, it would be an isolated city. No matter how important its geographical location was, it would be of little use.
Those mining areas are gone, and those resources are gone.
Longyan City's transportation routes are completely useless.
Rather than defending an isolated city that is useless to the Longyan people, it is better to defend Yuncheng which cannot be exposed yet.
As Longyan’s second city in America.
From a long-term strategic perspective, Yuncheng is even more important.
Where he is, he has the Pacific Ocean on one side and the Atlantic Ocean on the other.
If Liu Zheng's plan succeeds, the Panama Canal will be dug in the middle of South America and North America, connecting the two continents.
Then the route will be greatly shortened. Long Yan's army can also cross the Panama Canal through the Pacific Ocean and directly reach almost any coastal country on the Atlantic Ocean.
From a world perspective, if a war breaks out.
Then Long Yan's navy will be able to reach quickly through the Panama Canal, Long Yan's overseas power.
At the same time, it is also certain that Long Yan’s foreign trade will reduce more costs.
The Panama Canal is also of great significance to other countries.
Especially some European countries.
Therefore, both Liu Zheng and Qing Yangshuo were full of expectations and efforts for this canal.
Absolutely no mistakes are allowed.
Although there are Spain and many other great powers on the other side of Yuncheng.
But Qing Yangshuo didn't take it to heart. These great powers were nothing more than chickens and dogs now.
The existence of Yuncheng blocked their transportation route to North America.
The sea transportation lines were all blocked due to the confrontation between Britain and France.
In addition to their two territories, other ships, namely Long Yan's merchant ships, can still dock.
Don't even think about ships from other countries.
Although Britain and France have hundreds of years of hatred, their attitudes towards Long Yan, especially now, are almost the same.
However, Britain is above board.
France is doing it secretly. There is no way that both countries need the new weapons developed by Long Yan.
It can bring the war to an end faster.
But now, the French Colonial District and the British Colonial District are the first to go to war.
Although a fairly large-scale Indian uprising has broken out in the French colonial areas.
Faced with internal and external troubles, the answer given by the French is one word: kill.
After the French uprising, the colonial areas were in chaos.
At this moment, Richard and the senior officers who stayed behind in the French colonial area, after experiencing deep thinking.
The final decision was to listen to Fang Dalong.
No matter how powerful and reluctant Richard and those senior officers were.
They must now join a group to stay warm.
Otherwise, they are now very convinced that they may be killed by the Indian rebels.
After coming out, these officers and Richard experienced quite an Indian attack.
Fortunately, they all managed to escape with great difficulty.
But what impressed them more was that if they didn't listen to Fang Dalong now and insisted on going their own way, they would definitely be caught by these angry Indian rebels.
According to their status, being able to get a happy death is simply a gift from the Lord.
They will definitely be tortured and killed by these angry Indian rebels.
Faced with such an ending, Richard and the officer, who cherished their lives, shuddered.
