The so-called "pure team" is actually to eradicate dissidents, those who follow me prosper and those who oppose me die, eliminate the unstable factors in the team, unite and continue to work towards the next goal. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

To be the president of the Republic of Cuba, Cespedes is not stupid, and he also knows that the team should be pure when it is suitable, but it is not easy, every time the pure team can be said to be a labor pain, if the understanding is sufficient and the method is appropriate, the expected goal can indeed be achieved; But if the timing is not right, the result must be that the whole team will fall apart.

Here is an introduction to the basic situation of the Republic of Cuba, unlike the United States, which has eliminated slavery through the Civil War, there is still a slavery system in Cuba, including Cespedes, who himself is a big slave owner, and it is precisely because of this that Cespedes will easily pull hundreds of people to work for him.

In the early days of the establishment of the Republic of Cuba, because the Spaniards were defenseless, the Republic of Cuba was indeed successful on the battlefield of frontal combat with the Spaniards, but after the defeat of Bayamo, the hidden dangers of the Republic of Cuba gradually appeared, at this time, the Spanish colonists also began to be vigilant against the Republic of Cuba, and the regular army was transferred from the mainland to encircle and suppress the Republic of Cuba, so the rising momentum of the Republic of Cuba was contained, and the frontal battlefield of the battle with the Spaniards also began to fall into a stalemate situation. So far, it has been on the defensive.

The biggest problem of the Republic of Cuba is the lack of manpower in the areas under its control.

Compared with the area controlled by the Republic of Cuba, the Spanish controlled a larger population in the northwest, centered on Havana, which meant that there was a greater potential for war, so in order to increase the power of the Republic of Cuba, Céspedes had to target the slaves in the Republic of Cuba.

It must be noted that Céspedes himself was in favor of emancipating slaves, so at the beginning of the uprising, Céspedes declared all his slaves to be free men and invited these free men to join the rebellion against Spanish colonial rule, so Céspedes would be victorious.

After the capture of Bayamo, Céspedes proclaimed the Republic of Cuba and won the general election as President of the Republic of Cuba.

At this time, the indecisive side of Céspedes' personality finally appeared, and the cause was the emancipation of the slaves.

As with all new governments, there were different interests in the Republic of Cuba, both conservatives in favor of slavery and liberals in opposition to slavery, and Céspedes, in order to reconcile the contradictions between the two factions, thought it clever to enact a new law that allowed slaves to join the army, but only with the consent of the slave owners.

Céspedes' original intention was not to offend either conservatives or liberals, but this compromise slavery policy was actually two-pleased, with conservatives believing that Céspedes had violated their interests, and liberals believing that Céspedes' opposition to slavery was not thorough, so Céspedes' popularity declined rapidly, and contradictions within the Republic of Cuba became increasingly apparent.

Understanding Cespedes' situation, Li Mu could only sigh: "The revolution can't be flattered by both sides, you are either fighting for liberals and completely abolishing slavery, or you are fighting for conservatives and safeguarding the interests of slave owners, how can you please both sides, do you want everyone to like you?" That's impossible. ”

Even Li Mu, who has never participated in political struggles, knows that he can't stand on the wrong side, Cespedes is good, this guy doesn't stand on either side, he stands in the middle, and he really thinks of himself as an arbiter.

The point is that you, the arbiter, do not have military power in your hands, which makes people laugh and cry, the political struggle is not a family, you can't start over, everything is very cruel, wake up-

"I understand the problem now, but whoever I support either side of them now, they won't trust me anymore." Céspedes also knew that it was difficult for him to cross the river now, so he pinned his hopes on Li Mu, which was why he had to give and take when he negotiated in Springfield.

"Who are the liberals? Who are the conservatives? "Li Mu has to figure out the situation before making a decision.

"Rayleigh Toynby and Darwin Andrew are representatives of the conservatives, they are big slave owners themselves, so one is commander-in-chief, the other is the president of the National Assembly, Justice Arthur Robbins is a liberal, he supports the total abolition of slavery, but he is not very powerful, as for Vice President Caspar Hardy, he used to be my closest comrade-in-arms, but now he has turned to the conservatives, and has become an accomplice of Rayleigh Toynbee and Darwin Andrew-" Cespedes spoke in a low voice, The body shrank back as hard as he could, and his fingers were clenched into fists for a while, and then he couldn't spread them apart, looking very lonely.

It's really strange that the entire leadership of the Republic of Cuba, Cespedes can't find a single person to trust, and his only comrade-in-arms has turned into a traitor, and this president is enough.

"What do you want to do?" Li Mu wanted to make sure that Cespedes was still saved.

"Take back the military power first, then eradicate Rayleigh Toynby and Darwin Andrew, abolish slavery once and for all, train an elite army to fight the Spaniards to the death." Cespedes didn't give up completely, and thought about fighting back.

"As you just said, Rayleigh Toynby and Darwin Andrew are powerful, if you kill these two people, can you guarantee that you can successfully subdue Rayleigh Toynby and Darwin Andrew's men and ensure that the Republic of Cuba does not fall into chaos?" Li Mu keenly felt that Cespedes' plan was a little inappropriate.

"Of course, Rayleigh Toynbee and Darwin Andrew are powerful, but they are unpopular, and the abolition of slavery is the general trend, and I believe everyone agrees, as long as Rayleigh Toynby and Darwin Andrew are eliminated, their men will not be afraid." Cespedes is full of confidence and sounds confident.

In fact, this confidence is not very sufficient, when Céspedes took the banner to establish the Republic of Cuba, but it was completely hollowed out, it is conceivable that Cespedes is a little naïve, thinking about it this way, now Cespedes's confidence is a bit inexplicable.

"I'm going to think about it." Li Mu is not in a hurry to respond, Li Mu still needs more information before he decides what to do next.

Seeing off Cespedes, there were still people waiting in line to see Li Mu, followed by Darwin Andrew.

Darwin Andrew, although he is old, is in good spirits, people of this age are the most patient, life has taught them to stay sane, and people of this age are also the most decisive, because their lives are short, so they will cherish every minute.

Li Mu also did not slack off on Darwin Andrew, and invited Darwin Andrew into the study on the second floor.

"Mr. Reem, first of all, I would like to welcome you, the new hope that your presence brings to the Republic of Cuba." Darwin Andrew still spoke on a high note, and did not mention the national debt as soon as he came up.

"Thank you for your welcome, Mr. Darwin, the Republic of Cuba is a country full of hope, a country with unlimited possibilities for the future, and I hope that we will cooperate sincerely and work together to drive out the Spaniards and give the Cuban people a free country." Li Mu can also sing high notes, and the tune is equally high.

"Hehe, I'm afraid you can see Mr. Reem that the current Republic of Cuba is full of crises, and it is not easy to drive out the Spaniards." Darwin Andrew wasted no time and quickly got to the point.

"There is also a chance in danger -- it depends on whether we can grasp it." Li Mu does not shy away from the difficulties he is about to face, and only when there are difficulties can he be motivated.

"Mr. Ream, one of the facts I want to tell you is that the agreement signed by President Céspedes and you does not have the force of law, and the National Assembly did not approve it, so Mr. Ream, if you want to get what you want, then I'm afraid you have to do more." Darwin Andrew did not go around in circles with Li Mu, and asked to bypass Cespedes and cooperate directly with Li Mu.

"Hehe, I also want to tell you a fact, this contract was not signed by President Cespedes and me alone, you know, I have issued treasury bonds in the name of the Republic of Cuba, if the benefits are not realized, then I will not have a good life at the same time, the Wall Street bigwigs will not let go of those who let their interests hurt, as for whether the National Assembly has approved it, to be honest, who cares-" Li Mu's attitude was surprisingly tough, and he was dismissive of the Cuban National Assembly represented by Darwin Andrew.

There is no doubt how ferocious the Wall Street bigwigs are, and even a person like Morgan, who prides himself on "morality", secretly raises a large number of gunmen, and if the Cuban National Congress does not approve it, then maybe the Wall Street bigwigs can unite to organize an army and get what they deserve by force.

"Mr. Reem, I think we should still be in awe of public power." It seems that Darwin Andrew didn't expect Li Mu to be so tough, and he slowly swallowed as he spoke, and he had already begun to think about how to deal with it.

"Mr. Darwin, I think the spirit of the contract should be taken more seriously, President Cespedes was the President of the Republic of Cuba when he signed the agreement, and now you say that the parliament did not ratify the agreement, so what do you want to do?" Li Mu was polite and directly broke Darwin Andrew's disobedience.

It seems that staying on Cuban territory, it is a bit self-conscious to talk to the speaker of the National Assembly of the Republic of Cuba like this, but in fact, Li Mu is not afraid of Darwin Andrew, Li Mu is now the financier of the Republic of Cuba, and the savior of the Republic of Cuba.
