Chapter 368: Little Oro
The small city of Aya is the gateway to the Andes Mountains in the province of San Martín. A small city with a population of no more than 10,000 people is now full of troops. More than 3,000 people of the fully equipped Peruvian Ninth Division were stationed here.
Guarded by soldiers inside and outside the city, strategically fortified places outside the city were filled with troops, tents were lined up everywhere, and military trumpets sounded from morning to night, and the citizens of Aya had never seen such a big battle.
Since the discovery of some minerals in the mountains, the government encouraged the opening of mines here, and exempted from taxes for three years, Ayaben is a small village that has developed into a small city because of its geographical advantages. However, as the veins dried up, more and more people left the area.
The arrival of the Ninth Division made the city of Aya start to be full of people again, and the people who were no longer doing business also seized the opportunity to sell some daily necessities outside the barracks.
Colonel Oro had only arrived here with his troops for three days, and when he first came here, more than 3,000 people had to be eaten, drunk, and lazar had to be arranged, and he was so tired that he didn't sleep well for three days.
Trained at the French École Supérieure de la École Supérieure, such a qualification is rare among Peruvian officers. Little Oro is also often proud of this, and he usually behaves in a French style, always maintaining a neat and slim military uniform and a gentle gentleman image.
Next year, the army will be promoted to major general, and he has a high voice among the many colonels, but he is arrogant and does not want to rely on his father's tongue. This Chinese labor riot is a rare and good opportunity for him, Peru has not had a war since the founding of the country, and the soldiers have no chance to make meritorious contributions, so his father gave him this opportunity, and little Oro is determined to show his hand in the Peruvian army, so that he deserves the rank of major general next year.
In Aya's barracks, he summoned officers above the battalion level to meet with them, did some simple military understanding, and assigned some military tasks.
"Report to Colonel, Manager Di Marie has brought it to you." A guard walked in from outside.
Di Mari walked in tremblingly, and when he came to the barracks, he felt that these soldiers were different from before, the military appearance was neat, and their faces were fierce, which made people look frightened.
Colonel Oro had done some knowledge of the ambush, and knew the fact that this manager Di Mari was the first to escape, but he was a citizen. If it is his own soldier, Colonel Oro will definitely be dealt with by military law.
Although Xiao Oro didn't look down on this Di Mali, he still maintained a gentlemanly demeanor, and did not bother with him, but also exchanged a few words of greeting.
"I've already read what you reported, and I want you to repeat it to make sure the information is correct." Colonel Oro is still quite cautious in doing things, after all, saying it on the spot is not the same as reading the report, face to face with the sensitivity of little Oro to people, it is easy to tell whether the person in front of him is lying.
Di Mari did not dare to be careless, and hurriedly reported to Colonel Oro about the rebellion against the Chinese workers and the process of the death of Mayor Oro.
Colonel Oro fixed his eyes on Di Mari, and as soon as he stammered, he followed up with questions. After some verification, Colonel Oro nodded.
This Di Mari is quite honest, and the situation he said is basically in line with the judgment of his investigation.
"It seems that there are indeed Chinese soldiers in this batch of Chinese workers, otherwise my fifth uncle would not have been defeated so badly." Little Oro made his own judgment.
"Colonel, if it's okay, I'll go first." Di Mari was very nervous in the face of Colonel Oro's interrogation, but fortunately he didn't lie, although he gained the colonel's trust, he still sweated on his back, this colonel's aura was too strong, and he was almost out of breath.
"Wait, what do you call the head of that Chinese worker Yang。。。。。。" Little Oro called out to Di Mari.
"Yang Xiaoshan." Di Mari said his name a little awkwardly, and the Chinese name was relatively difficult for them, and he only remembered the name.
"Yes, Yang Xiaoshan, you recall what he looks like, and I want to paint a portrait of him." Little Oro took out a pen and paper from his desk. After all, he was born in a regular military academy, and he even knows how to use techniques like sketching.
"Okay, let me imagine." Di Mali didn't dare to refuse, he was deeply impressed by Yang Xiaoshan, and it was not difficult.
"Is that so?"
。。。。。。。
"The eyebrows are thicker, and the chin is wider."
The two of them asked and answered, and it didn't take long for Yang Xiaoshan's appearance to come to life on the paper through Xiao Oro's pencil.
"Yes, yes, that's what it looks like, it's too similar." Di Mari couldn't help but scream at the end.
Xiao Oro carefully observed the man on the paper, and said secretly in his heart: "It seems that he is a strong opponent, this person is definitely not a reckless man, you can see from his eyes that he is cultured and very confident." I feel that this temperament is like my own military school teacher, those French generals who have been in a hundred battles. ”
"Alright, you can go. Greet Congressman Juan when I greet him. "Little Oro is also very good at being a man, and although he is in the military, he cannot ignore Juan's influence in Peruvian politics.
Di Marie nodded and stepped back.
Little Oro sat in his chair, staring at the man on the drawing paper, his mind racing about the battle plan.
As night fell, it was planned that tomorrow the 9th Division would march to the mines, and all officers above the battalion level would gather at Colonel Oro for the last mobilization for war.
Little Aoro was dressed in a crisp military uniform, with a belt of honor diagonally across his chest and his favorite French leather boots on his feet. The surface of the leather boots is polished and can be used as a mirror.
The summoned officers had already stood solemnly on the left and right, and the room was silent.
Colonel Oro sat down in the middle, glancing his eyes over the officers on either side.
The officers saluted Colonel Oro in turn, and Oro stood up and saluted everyone.
"Thank you very much for your hard work in following me to Aya 。。。。。。。" Little Oro is still quite good at speaking, and the initial praise made the officers feel very comfortable.
"But everyone must remember the purpose of coming to Aya this time, I have never had such a vicious incident in the more than 40 years since the founding of Peru. Our country sincerely invited those Chinese to work and earn money, but they took revenge, killed our Peruvian people, and ambushed our army. What do you say we should do? Little Oro changed his words and began to mobilize for battle.
A brigade commander took the lead in expressing his position: "We are all under the command of the division commander, and the division commander will fight like this when he says we will fight like this." ”
"Yes, we will do our best, go all out, and ask the teacher for instructions." All the officers expressed their positions.
"Well, since everyone says so, I'll talk about the ugly things first. Anyone who retreats from the battle, fails to fight effectively, or escapes from the battle, causing the Chinese bandits to slip through the net, will be sent to the military justice department for disposal. "Little Oro is still full of confidence in himself, he not only wants to win, but also a complete victory, to annihilate what he thinks is a Chinese bandit, leaving no one to slip through the net.
"Yes." All the officers agreed in unison.
"After the victory in this battle, I will not forget everyone, as long as I am successfully promoted to major general, I will never treat anyone who has made military merits in this battle." Little Oro wastes no time in giving everyone a piece of "candy", and his subordinates will work hard, which his father has already taught him.
"Yes!" Everyone has an expectation in their hearts, and their subordinates are looking forward to the promotion of their bosses. No matter where there is, nepotism is there, and all the officers are smiling, and it seems that it is not far from being added to the knighthood.
