The CIA in Jinling was built entirely in the middle of a large area of private houses near the Qinhuai River, where intelligence agents and ordinary people lived together, and there were dense secret passages and heavy guards, making it one of the most important intelligence bases in the Jiangnan region.

Walking through the labyrinthine alleys and dark passages, pushing open one door after another, Xiao Lotian was a little confused and couldn't find the north, so he came out from behind a mahogany bookshelf, and there was actually a delicate embroidery building in front of him.

Xiao Lotian looked up, there seemed to be a pair of pink shoes flashing by the stairs on the second floor, he knew that this should be the residence of a disguised female intelligence officer, maybe it must be the hiding place of the foggy imp, sure enough, the door to the garden was pushed open, and the misty imp walked in with a man with a sallow face.

With a snap, Sister Wu gave a Ryukyu military salute, but she had not received training in recruit training, so the salute posture was a bit strange, but although the man behind Sister Wu looked sickly, the posture of standing up and saluting was absolutely standard.

"CIA, head of the South American branch, Tang Lei salutes the prime minister!"

Burst...... A mouthful of tea was squirted out, that is, at the last moment, Xiao Letian tilted his head, or this sip of tea would have to be sprayed on Sister Wu's body.

The dragon master behind him was also dumbfounded, "What the hell? South America Division?"

Xiao Letian was completely dizzy, when did he set up the intelligence bureau branch in South America? Do I want to catch a few alpacas and sell them? He led a group of alpacas in the city of Beijing, and then shouted "grass and mud horses...... Grass mud horse ...... Take a photo for a dollar!"

"How come I've never heard of a South American branch?"

Tang Lei, who had a sallow face, was not embarrassed at all, but on the contrary, a light called ambition flashed in his eyes, which Xiao Lotian was very familiar with.

"Your Excellency, there is indeed no such thing as the South American branch of the CIA, because I set it up without authorization!"

"I ......" Xiao Letian was speechless, how bold this person was, secretly built a CIA branch, and dared to speak out in front of him.

"Okay, I'll let you tell me the whole process of the matter in person, and I'll give you this opportunity......"

Tang Lei, a native of the Ryukyus, fled to the Ryukyus in the late Ming Dynasty to escape the war, and before joining the New Army, he was a naval garrison under General Cai Mao, and also served as a translator.

Later, Xiao Lotian led 100,000 Chinese and Ryukyu natives to overthrow the rule of the Shimazu family, and the enthusiastic Tang Lei resolutely devoted himself to the command of the prime minister.

Xiao Letian's CIA was first called the Torture Hall, which was specifically responsible for eliminating spies internally, killing spies externally, spying on the military intelligence by the way, and encircling the forces in the dark.

Later, with the unremitting efforts of Wang Huaiyuan and Xiao Letian, and most importantly, with the support of a large amount of funds, the torture hall was upgraded to the Central Intelligence Agency, and its business scope gradually expanded.

With the CIA, there were Japanese divisions, Korean divisions, and Nanyang divisions...... There is even a European branch in Europe that the winged king Shi Dakai is responsible for.

North America, especially the United States and Mexico, have close business dealings with Xiao Letian, so there are also some intelligence officers left here, but the level here is not high, and it cannot be regarded as a branch but only a supervisor of the silver trade.

Therefore, Tang Lei's real position is the CIA's senior supervisor of North American silver trade, and he collects intelligence on North America on a part-time basis, but in principle, they are only allowed to watch and listen, and they are absolutely not allowed to interfere.

People who dare to mess with Xiao Letian are not too bold, and their ambitions are also very inflated, and the same is true for Tang Lei, who has traveled back and forth between the Americas and Asia again and again, and the boring journey across the Pacific Ocean has made him almost crazy, he doesn't want his life to be so depressed, he wants to go further in the prime minister's power.

Dozeness really comes to the pillow, and the opportunity is always left to those who are prepared, Tang Lei did not expect that in 1867, that is, in the sixth year of Tongzhi, a caravan in South America brought a news that stunned all Mexican Chinese.

The three countries of Bolivia, Peru, and Chile in South America actually pinched each other, and not only that, in this conflict and war, there was actually a Chinese army of 8,000 people invincible!

Tang Lei immediately went crazy, he spent a lot of money to buy news from various channels, and finally determined that this information was true and there was no doubt.

If he didn't seize such an opportunity, would he still dare to say that he was an adventurer? If he wants to be a successful intelligence officer, the most basic quality is that he loves adventure.

Tang Lei activated all the funds within his authority, and even deceived and coaxed him to borrow a large amount of money from the captain and sailor who had a good relationship, organized a small expedition team, and went all the way south to the junction of the three Central American countries.

However, the team was stopped before it reached Peru, and as soon as the border guards heard that the expedition was going to Chile, they could not accept bribes, and the border was not opened.

Tang Lei had no choice but to spend all his money and hire a pirate ship in Ecuador, bypassing countless dangers along the way and smuggling directly from the sea to Chile.

When he arrived at the Chilean port of Antofagasta, Tang Lei finally figured out the ins and outs of the matter, it turned out that all the stories still have to be traced back to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and the child has no mother to talk about a long story!

Between the Andes Mountains and the Pacific Ocean in the middle of the west coast of South America, there is a desert called Atacama, with an arid climate, with an average annual rainfall of less than 2.5 mm, and there has been a record of no precipitation for 14 consecutive years, known as the world's "dry pole".

No one would ever think about this barren land, whether it was the ancient Incas or the Spanish conquistadors.

Later, after the independence of Chile, Bolivia, and Peru, this desert is just at the intersection of the three countries, and everyone says that this is their own, and everyone swears sovereignty, but because it is really worthless here, it is okay for the three countries to quarrel, and it will not fight because of a desert.

In the end, the three countries hastily negotiated and divided the small desert casually, and one person could be regarded as quelling the dispute.

I thought that this matter had subsided, but I didn't expect that after 1860, someone actually found rich strounce and saltpeter veins in the desert, and the quality was rare in the world, and the conflict between the three kingdoms began to intensify at that time.

Note: There will be three changes today! Haha, I didn't expect that I would write to South America, right? Don't worry, there will be a change at six or seven o'clock in the evening, and there will be a big revelation of history at that time!
