"Fight your own way, don't worry about me, I'll just watch here, clean it up and go in and stroll in." Hong Tao did not break his promise, no longer interfered with Swan's battle, and had been observing the legendary city, especially the temple with a telescope. The Indians could not even use wheels, and they didn't even have tools from the Bronze Age. Even if there was no shortage of rocks nearby, the efforts to build such a majestic building can be imagined.

The most peculiar thing is that there is a large circular square in front of the pyramid. It looks like a circle from a distance, which looks similar to the decorations on their backs. It should be used by the people in the city to gather in front of the temple. In later generations, there are such squares near Mayan pyramids. Some historians used it to explain the transportation method of the pyramid stones, saying that it was the landing ground for the Mayans to summon the appearance of aircraft, and they used spacecraft to transport huge stones.

This kind of speculation is not completely unfounded. Some huge stones are indeed difficult to rely on pure human transportation, and even if the trunk is placed on the bottom, it is not possible to roll. Whether it is rainforest or mountain, this mode of transportation is completely unfeasible without a roughly flat road. From later generations, some of them speculated that the Mayans are descendants of aliens. Because some of their things are indeed very advanced, they have passed other civilizations of the same era, such as mathematics, calendar, carving, art, agriculture. But many things are very backward, such as tools, smelting, transportation, and animal husbandry.

This strange fault culture makes it difficult not to think that they may have more advanced tools and machinery, and do not need to study these things at all, so they are so backward in some aspects. As for why the Mayans suddenly declined, some people speculated that aliens suddenly evacuated the earth for some reason. The remaining Mayans lost the help of high-tech and did not study the corresponding technical supplements, so they naturally declined.

No matter how these huge buildings were built, Hong Tao likes this valley very much. The climate is suitable, easy to defend and difficult to attack, with mountains and water, and fertile land. The most important thing is that there is a city foundation here, which is much easier than building a new city from scratch. Thinking of this, Hong Tao took out the map from his backpack behind him and looked at it on the horse's back.

Mexico is actually a good geographical location. The Pacific Ocean on the left, and the Gulf of Mexico on the right is connected to the Atlantic Ocean. In addition to the somewhat desertified north and the rainforests in the south, which are not suitable for living, the central plateau and coastal plains on the east and west sides are all good grain-producing areas. Moreover, there is no shortage of minerals here. There is also rich oil reserves in the southern isthmus and bays, which is very suitable to create a self-sufficient small kingdom.

It is good to be good for North American Big 6, but it is too big and the resource distribution is too scattered. It is very difficult to manage such a big country. The most important thing is that it is too laborious and not suitable for me as a lazy person to play. The best way now is to give North American Big 6 to your followers, let them play with each piece of it, occupy Mexico by yourself, crouch under them, and slowly spread without showing off.

If Europe comes from the east and Asians come from the west, the first one to appear in North America is probably North America. Let them hold on top and have a secret fun underneath, add a stick to the cold and snatch the fattest meat, which is so fun. Moreover, Mexico can be attacked and defended. If you want to develop quickly, you can also make this unknown land quickly become a hot land that is attracting the world.

There is a place in southern Mexico called the Isthmus of Tevantepec. The terrain is very narrow, with a total width of more than 200 kilometers. On one side is the Pacific Ocean and on the other side is the Gulf of Mexico. If a canal can be dug out, there will be no Panama Canal. Mexico will immediately become a major transportation route between Europe, the East and West America, Africa and Asia. At that time, almost half of the ocean-going ships will have to pay taxes to themselves and do nothing. Just guarding this canal will make you no need to worry about food or drinking.

What? There are not so many shipping in this era? This is not a problem. If you want them to have it, you can have it. As long as you spread your charts and sell them some sea boats, whether Europeans, Africans or Asians, you will not miss this good opportunity for wealth. What they lack now is not demand, but ideas and technology, which can be provided by themselves at any time.

The Panama Canal is less than 100 kilometers wide, and there is a big lake in the middle, so there is no need to dig it. The width of the Isthmus of Tevantepec is more than 200 kilometers. Can this thing be dug out of the canal?

The answer is to try it! When the United States decided to dig the Panama Canal at the request of the Central American Union, it also chose four places first, one of which was the Isthmus of Tevantepec. However, later, Panama was chosen because the conditions given by the Colombian government were relatively good. According to the construction technology, it was possible to dig all four places at that time, and the final choice was mainly the result of political games.

In fact, there is no need to dig a canal of more than 200 kilometers. It itself has a large river with abundant water that runs through almost two-thirds of the isthmus. As long as the remaining one-third are dug through, the river can communicate with the two oceans. Moreover, the altitude of the isthmus is not high, the highest place is more than 200 meters, and most areas are low-sink basins with an altitude of dozens of meters. There are many landforms of Cost, which are easier to dig.

Of course, this easy is only relative. The project has to be described by explosives and human digging alone. However, Hong Tao still decided to try it. Since he came to this era, the fate of the Indians changed, and there was no need to die tens of millions of people. He used more than 100,000 of them to dig a small canal, and he didn't seem to feel guilty.

At worst, this canal is finally named after the Indians, which can be regarded as a strong mark for the Indians in history. In hundreds of years, everyone will thank them for their contributions. Of course, the Indian name of this river must be its own Indian name. I haven’t figured out what it is now, so I’ll talk about it after it’s almost dug.

Just thinking about it, Hong Tao simply took out a pen and simply calculated the approximate area of ​​his small kingdom on the map, and then looked at where to build a military fortress, roads, shipyards, and industrial facilities to occupy these areas. As for the battle below the hillside, Hong Tao was too lazy to see it. He just needed to listen to the sporadic gunfire and knew that Swan had not caught any big battle. It is estimated that most of the people in the city had escaped after yesterday's battle, and the rest had no intention of resisting.

"Are you going to dig a canal here? Why do you use it?" At some point, Swan suddenly appeared behind him and understood all the circles and dots he drew on the picture.

"If it's not your business, please ask less. This is my kingdom in the future. Kill less people. They are all my people. It takes a lot of people to dig the canal. Why are you back? The battle is over!" Hong Tao rolled up the map and stuffed it back to his backpack. Then he looked towards Tula City. It's still possible, there were probably a few hundred people left and they were all driven out of the city to queue.

"There are only a few people in total, and they didn't even catch an official, so they ran away at night." Swan didn't blame Hong Tao this time, because Hong Tao didn't interfere at all, so he could only blame himself for his bad luck.

"It's okay, you, Uncle Luo, blocked the mountain pass and they couldn't run out. First, send someone to explore the front and find a suitable place to go out immediately. I will never interfere with your battle." Hong Tao's mind was no longer on the war at this time. Not only Swan was unhappy in fighting this kind of battle, but he couldn't get interested in it. He held a double-barrel hunting rifle to fight enemies in the Stone Age, and he didn't show his face when he said it. What we should consider now is not how to win the battle, but how to manage these prisoners of war. It is basically impossible to send all back to Sun City or Saba City. Most of them have to stay here to continue their lives. How to arrange them is a big problem.
