Wild North America 1846

Quito, capital of Ecuador
"Your Excellency the Duke, please look into the distance with your eyes, yes, hold the command knife in your hand... that's it, great..."

The officer of the Propaganda Department of the Confederate Legion held a camera in his hand. After a flash of "bang", black smoke came out, and a photo was taken.

General Mai Xiaozu, the commander of the Southern Army in full uniform, stood vigorously on the charred and dilapidated ruins of the church, leaving the image of the conqueror again. He seemed to be in a good mood at the moment.

Ecuador is a small South American country with a population of less than 40, covering an area of ​​about 25.6 square kilometers. The Andes Mountains run through the north and south, and most of them are between 2000 and 3 kilometers above sea level.

There are several narrow mountain valleys in the country, which are the main populated areas, and the history can be traced back to the Inca Empire.

Such a small country in South America dared to participate in the regional rebellion conspiracy against the Tang Empire, it was really audacious.

It has to be said that these South American people's brain circuits are quite peculiar, their self-awareness is infinitely high, and they have some symptoms of overconfidence, and the result is that the country is ruined and their families are destroyed.

No matter how small a mosquito's legs are, it is still meat. Admiral Mai Xiaozu is very satisfied with his military experience. After the demise of Colombia, he added Ecuador, a small country that is overwhelmed.

The next step is to direct the spearhead at Peru and Bolivia.

Among the Northern Allies, the main task of the Southern Army is to conquer Ecuador and Peru, while Bolivia is left to Paraguay, Uruguay and the 2.6 Andean Governor's Palace Expeditionary Force to deal with.

Compared with Ecuador, a small South American country, Peru is a heavyweight target.Its domestic population is close to 400 million. It was once the ruling center of the Inca Empire and a key area for Spanish colonization of South America.

But all of this is not a problem for the imperial army.

Respecting His Majesty's will to launch a punitive war, the entire Ecuador plus the Tumaco region in the north, everyone will be affected.

This area has a population of about 82 to 85 people, of whom about 10 are young women over the age of 26 and under the age of 30. They are successively shipped to the southern provinces of the empire for sale, and it is impossible to return to their homeland in this lifetime.

The rest of them were put into hard labor camps, digging roads, building bridges and dams in the mountainous jungles from north to south.Among them, about 15 strong laborers were transported back to the mainland of the empire by sea ships, entered the major mines, and became slaves who worked hard day and night.

The missing population in this area is filled by imperial immigrants.

The city of Quito is a long and narrow city about 25 kilometers long and only 3-5 kilometers wide. It is close to the big river in the valley. It has many ancient Spanish-style buildings and churches, and the scenery is magnificent and beautiful.

The city had been completely looted by the expeditionary army, and the city residents were divided into male and female queues, and they walked numbly into the distance under the escort of fully armed soldiers.

No one explained to them where they would go, and the fate of these people could no longer be controlled by themselves.

Admiral Mai Xiaozu looked at all this indifferently, as one of the top nobles in the empire.In his eyes, the people of these conquered lands were just lowly pariahs, not even called human beings.

Their life and death are like trivial things, not worthy of too much attention.

it won't take long

Ecuador and the Tumaco region in the north will be occupied by a large number of Chinese immigrants, and those rebels hiding in the tropical jungle will have no way to survive, and they will only die in the end.

In these new colonial areas, Chinese immigrants are usually equipped with weapons to defend their villages. The army is not responsible for their safety, and everything is on their own.

Therefore, no matter how tight the funds are, you have to squeeze out a little money to buy guns for body protection.

Generally, armed militia teams are formed based on villages, towns or farms. Basically, it is no problem to deal with rebels with more than a hundred people.No matter how many enemies there are, it will be difficult. You can ask the local garrison for help.

The wide avenue from Tumaco to Quito in the south is under construction. It is estimated that by the end of the year, this 217-kilometer-long road will be completed in its entirety.

At that time, a large number of Chinese immigrants will continue to flow in.

Stimulated by the Tumaco incident, the Tang Empire accelerated its encroachment on the new colonial areas of Colombia and Ecuador, which directly led to a brutal change in the population structure of the above-mentioned areas, and hundreds of thousands of locals were thrown into hard labor camps.

Tough colonial methods have led to large-scale panic in the Colombian region. A large number of people, old and young, fled to neighboring Venezuela, Peru and Brazil. The number exceeded one million people, and many people fell into the Amazon rainforest.

The superposition of various factors has caused the total population of Colombia to drop sharply from more than 600 million to less than 400 million, and every month there are 1.5 to 1.8 young women who are transported as goods to the Andean governors of North America or South America. In the population market under the government's jurisdiction.

Contreras, a famous European sociologist and leader of the Spanish Anarchy Movement, pointed out angrily: "The brutal colonial policy of the Tang Dynasty is destroying the traditional social structure of the former Spanish colonial area, eliminating the local indigenous culture, religion and all representatives of this land. The history that has happened is an unforgivable crime..."

However, in the face of imperial power, the voices of these individuals are very small, and perhaps they will not be heard by the colonists at all.

Taking the lead in picking up Ecuador was just a small test. In the name of the Northern Alliance, the Southern Conscripts, armed to the teeth, sharpened their swords and stepped up their war preparations, planning to divide their troops into Peru in one fell swoop.

at this time
An unimaginable surprise disrupted the North American alliance's war plans; Peru and Bolivia, the first to admit defeat and ask Britain, France and Spain to intervene, surrendered.

On April 1874, 4, the Southern Expedition army entered Peru unimpeded in three routes. All the towns along the way put down their weapons and did not resist at all.

more than ten days later
Imperial Capital Chang'an
Peru and Bolivia directly lay down the move of surrender.It was indeed beyond Emperor Li Cha's expectations.

But when you think about it, it makes sense.

Except for two idiots, the hot-headed Peruvian military hardliners General Juan Varela and the Ecuadorian General Daniel Morat, after all, most people are still sensible and can see that there is no hope of victory at all.

Colombia has more people than Peru, how long did the war last?
From the beginning to the end, I persisted for two and a half months before kneeling, and most of the time was spent on the march.The South American army hardly poses a decent threat to the Datang Empire, let alone a direct confrontation, almost all massacres are one-sided.

"His Majesty, the diplomatic missions of Britain, France, Spain and other countries have arrived in Panama, and the government missions of Peru and Bolivia have also arrived successively, and the post-war peace negotiations are about to begin.

What is the position of the empire on negotiations? Please forgive me for being dull, and pray for divine judgment! "Prime Minister Dong Jie emphatically mentioned this issue at the regular imperial meeting.

Emperor Richard didn't hesitate, and after pondering for a while, he said, "Since international forces have intervened in South American disputes, and Peru and Bolivia have surrendered, the situation has fundamentally changed, and the original colonial plan will no longer work.

How about this……

The cabinet will discuss to see which coastal provinces in Peru have better natural conditions, and they will occupy them through treaties. Sending troops to fight this battle will not be fruitless.

In addition, Bolivia also followed suit, allowing the South American Andean Governor's Palace and Paraguay to carve up, preferably no more than half of Bolivia's territory.

Let them understand that since they dare to provoke the majesty of the empire, they must pay a heavy price.

Other than this
Long-term garrison in the above two countries, and demands for war compensation are also included.

Peru has made a fortune by selling guano over the years. This alone has an annual income of more than 2600 million Tang yuan. It is time for them to vomit blood.

The specific matters are drawn up by the cabinet and sent to the diplomatic envoys of Panama to notify the other party to sign the agreement.With the empire's always tough negotiating style, it is not allowed to change a word without authorization.

The defeated countries have no human rights, they can only choose to accept or continue the war.

As for those mediating countries... don't worry too much, their hands can't reach America yet.

By the way, when will the British Royal Navy fleet come? "

Hearing His Majesty the Emperor ask about this matter, many cabinet ministers couldn't help laughing.

No one, including the British, expected Peru and Bolivia in South America to kneel so quickly, so neatly, and so simply, lying down and admitting defeat.

Therefore, the British Royal Navy fleet is still in Plymouth port. Many warships are entering the shipyard for maintenance and will not be able to leave the dock for a while. It may take some time to form a visiting fleet.

After all, it is a major military operation that is transatlantic and visits many countries. It is estimated that the voyage will exceed 1.3 kilometers and last for more than three months. series of equipment, etc.

Always make sufficient preparations for the voyage, otherwise it will be bad if it breaks in the Atlantic Ocean.

First-class Wei Guogong, Marshal Pan Hengchen, Chief of Staff of the Admiralty, stepped out of the class and gave a standard military salute with his hands, before replying;
"His Majesty, the British fleet plans to visit the Americas in two months, and now only the Canadian port has been implemented. The United States of America, the Confederate States of America, Brazil and other countries, under the pressure of the empire, have not allowed the British fleet to visit the port for the time being. Request. Relevant matters are still being communicated, I believe that without the permission of the empire, these American countries should know what to do?"

The admiral's confident answer won a round of applause.

Emperor Li Cha also nodded in satisfaction and said;

"The timing of the British Royal Fleet's visit to the American countries is quite stupid. It coincides with the empire's preparation for the important Sao Paulo summit. They are good people who don't come!

Since the British want to show their muscles, the Tang Empire, as a hospitable country, can't remain indifferent. They simply show their influence and let everyone show up!
pass on my royal orders;
Countries that open their ports without the permission of the empire will be regarded as unfriendly countries, and the empire has the right to take all reasonable actions to defend the dignity of the empire.

When dealing with Europeans, you don't need to play tricks that can only be understood but cannot be expressed in words, but tell the British bluntly;
Your gunboat diplomatic deterrence trick, deterring with a hammer, is not feasible in America. "

This resounding and domineering declaration excited all the officials, and they all stood out of the train to salute, saying;

"Your Majesty is holy, and the ministers will obey everything."

Now in the entire Americas, no country dares to ignore the message from the Daming Palace. Could it be that the old birthday star eats arsenic...is he impatient?
