As long as we control the Atlantic Ocean, they will have no supplies. I want to besiege them to death. If it doesn't work for one year, it will be trapped for two years. If it doesn't work for two years, it will be trapped for ten years.

I'm going to starve those damn British to death in Gibraltar."

Li Xiao pointed his finger at Gibraltar and said fiercely.

Lu Zhu's eyes lit up. Although this was a stupid idea, it was very feasible.

In the face of the powerful Ming army, Morocco's tribal armed forces are not worth mentioning at all.

The Marine Corps' attack on Marrakech is actually a march to Marrakech. As long as they get there, the chiefs there will not even think about fighting, they will just surrender immediately.

"It's just that these kilometers of road...!" Luzhu was a little worried.

After all, the local residents were very poor, and the military supplies of the Ming Dynasty were very attractive to them. If the transport convoy was robbed by the locals, it would be a big trouble.

Besides, the road requirements for the automobile transport team are very high, and it takes too long to lay the railway. This road of more than 1,000 kilometers is indeed a headache.

"There is no other choice but to transport European prisoners of war to build roads. At the same time, recruit more Indian troops to maintain local security.

Using the method of the Central Asian Railway again, wherever there is a problem with the road, the chief of that place will be asked to trouble.

That’s all it can do now!

Of course, this is just a preliminary idea, and there are still many details that need to be implemented." Li Xiao looked at the map, becoming more and more excited as he looked at it.

To be honest, there is almost no doubt that the Marine Corps will suffer heavy losses if they attack a place with strong fortifications like Gibraltar.

The tactic of detouring from North Africa is well worth considering.

The only problem now is the safety of this more than 1,000 kilometers of land transportation line.

But this is easy to do. We can mobilize Indian troops. If we recruit more Korean and Japanese engineers, if we can't reach Jiaozhi, we can also recruit civilians to come and build roads.

It's just road construction, not a sophisticated job.

You can't enjoy the protection of the Ming Dynasty without paying a price.

What Ming Dynasty does not lack most now is manpower, and most of it is free labor.

Because the Ming Dynasty recruited civilian men from Korea and Japan without any money at all.

These expenses and even their grain were provided by Korea and Japan.

As for India, in these years the adult men of the Sikhs and Gurkhas first fought against the Ming Dynasty, and later followed the Ming Dynasty to fight against other countries.

Adult men have suffered heavy losses. Nowadays, many Sikh and Gurkha families have one or two disabled people.

More people died on the battlefield!

It can be said that the Sikhs and Gurkhas almost shed their blood for the Ming Dynasty.

However, Li Xiao still found a good substitute, and that was the Ottomans.

As a large empire spanning Europe and Asia, the Ottomans had a population of more than 13 million.

The Ottoman Sultan now wants to call Li Xiao daddy.

Since there are so many people, it would be a pity for them not to use them as livestock.

I help you fight the Kurds, and I have wasted so much effort.

Although the battles were fought by captured soldiers, those captured soldiers were not captured by me. The ammunition they fired was provided by me.

If I hadn't beaten them like this, how could the Ottomans in Asia be so peaceful? Those places in Aleppo had long been occupied by the Kurds.

There is also the Sudan of Egypt, who is also protected by Lao Tzu. He has a population of more than nine million under his rule. With so many people giving me 100,000 people, it should not be excessive.

Li Xiao calculated it, and it all added up. It was only in the short term, if the power of the Far East was not mobilized.

He could easily get more than 300,000 civilians to build this road.

You can also transfer Stanet over and use the segmented construction method to lay the railway from Algiers to Marrakech!

The more I think about it, the clearer my ideas become. The more I think this method is feasible!

When he put down his cigar, he found that the room was filled with smoke, as if it was on fire.

A lot of cigar butts were thrown on the brightly painted solid wood floor. The floor was burned with scars!

At the door, Li Lin stood worriedly.
Chapter completed!
