Chapter 286: The March (1)
After the Civil War, the U.S. government launched the Spanish-American War, liberated Cuba, robbed the Philippines, and since the development of the western part of the United States, the whole country has developed rapidly. Pen ~ fun ~ www.biquge.info but the rapid development has also brought some shortcomings, such as a large number of farmers lost their land to become low-level workers, and because the development of assets is limited by spending power, the United States has already had a precursor to inflation, and many workers have begun to lose their jobs.
In order to deal with inflation, former President Roosevelt even proposed an antitrust bill and dissolved more than 40 trust giant groups, but the dissolution of trust groups increased the unemployment rate in the United States. Unemployed Americans who did not have a ban on alcohol began to drink heavily all day, and more and more radical Americans grew. The reason why the current President Taft let the US assets go out is that he hopes to solve the problem of domestic inflation, but the United States has always pursued the Monroe Doctrine and cannot directly participate in the intervention of the American continent,ββ but the Americans remained silent when the Qing Dynasty intervened in the Mexican Civil War, which made many people scratch their heads.
Tovta's plan was to let the Qing Protector Army work for the Americans and indirectly interfere in Mexico, so as to avoid the Monroe Doctrine's agreement that the United States would not interfere in the affairs of the Americas.
The abacus played very well, but unfortunately the news that Wang Yongan let the shark camp appear in the newspaper still shocked the whole United States, especially the increasing number of people participating in the shark camp, and even many scholars were worried that this would put the United States in huge trouble.
Mexicans sensitively immediately thought of the Mexican-American war, so the Mexicans protested and the Americans intervened in Mexico.
Tofta was embarrassed to find that he had made a very serious mistake, that is, he underestimated the combat effectiveness of the Qing Protector Army, and also underestimated Wang Yongan's wisdom, so that this Chinese kid could play tricks.
"They must not be allowed to continue marching." Taft immediately called Secretary of State Knox and asked him to issue a direct warning to the Qing State, prohibiting the Qing State Protector Army from continuing to advance, and immediately disbanding the Shark Battalion. However, the embarrassment is that after the telegram was sent to the Qing State, there was no response for a long time, and President Taft asked what was going on, and only then did someone report that there was an armed riot in the Qing State, and the Qing government was busy quelling the riot, and this time the Overseas Chinese Protector Army was completed independently by the Qing Jiangbei New Army, and the War Department could not directly order, and the US government needed to contact the Overseas Chinese Protector Army directly.
"government!" Taft was furious, "If a government can't control the locality, if it can't control the local army, the Qing government will be finished, and the Qing government is an incompetent eunuch!" β
"But what do we do now?" Knox asked.
"Directly find the Qing Protector Army, if they don't obey our orders, we will cut off all their rear material sources." Taft said coldly.
Guadalajara was a relatively large city and an important livestock trading place, where the Protectors found more than 1,000 horses. Wang Yongan waved his hand and collected them all, as for the price, one peso a horse.
Where did you get the pesos?
Isn't there a bank in Guadalajara, sorry, but we requisitioned the bank because you resisted us.
How to resist? A teenager shot a stone at our 10th Battalion with a slingshot, wounding our 10th Battalion's international volunteer fighters.
After the looting, the Protectors also loaded the horses and cars onto the trains, and one day the train workers went on strike, or the Mexicans deliberately sabotaged the trains, and they had to rely on four-legged horses and stolen cars, which must not be discarded.
The 10th Battalion of the Shark Battalion all changed their horses and became cavalry, and the Yankees were so happy that they all thought they were cowboys, and some even did not want to take the train. Unfortunately, they could not have traveled from Guadalajara to Irapuato on horseback, so they had to get on the train honestly.
"Ahead, there may be danger waiting for us." Fang Xianwu said worriedly, "We have been too smooth these days, we have not encountered any opponents, we have not encountered any resistance, it is precisely that it is too smooth for me to be frightened, and I always feel that the enemy has arranged a big bag waiting for us." β
"I have this too...... This...... This feeling. Gong Wuyuan said with a calm face.
Wang Yongan nodded, he was not good at leading troops to fight, but he was good at digging up his subordinates, so he asked, "What are we going to do next?" β
Fang Xianwu said: "Stop the advance before reaching Ilapuato, and send the army to get off the car in advance to reconnoiter in detail to ensure that the enemy has not set up an ambush." "If I were Mexican, I would have stopped it here, because six days by train south from Irapuato is Mexico City, and ten days north is TorreΓ³n, which must be the base camp of the rebels," he warned. β
The Guardian Army was in high spirits at the train station preparing to pedal the train, and it took three days from Guadalajara to Irapuato City, and the temperature on the way was very high, so everyone needed to pay attention to the heatstroke.
Liu Enbo stood in the team with a gun, Wen Ju stood beside him, and the two watched Jian Shizhen from a distance with a notebook to register records at the door, and couldn't help but magically show off and say: "Old Jane, look, the gun, have you touched it?" β
Jian Shizhen gritted his teeth and said, "Get out, you guys are tired of playing for a long time." β
"Yo, you're tired of playing with guns with marching papers, and the cowhide blows loud enough." Wen Ju laughed.
"Don't bother me, next, you two hurry up and get in the car, do you hear?" Jian Shizhen said with a glare.
Liu Enbo said: "Hey, you are using your power for personal gain, we don't want to get on the train yet, there is a smell in the carriage, it smells too bad, especially Wenju's stinky feet...... I said Wenju, can you put shoes on the boat for me, don't slip shoes as soon as you get in the car? What are your Manchu habits, do you take off your shoes on the kang? β
"How do you know?" Wen Ju smiled and said, "Master is good for this bite." "There was a burst of disdain among the people, good fellow, what a smell of this.
A big man from Shandong, in the back, shouted, "You two hurry up and get in the car, don't be the person behind me." β
"Big Black Bull, you are in a hurry to get in, you go first." Wen Ju made a gesture of please.
Nicknamed the big black bull is Li Chen, a native of Qingdao, Shandong, who is also a hot-blooded young student, who ran from Qingdao to Yangzhou to join the army, but people did not accept it, and ran to Shanghi, and finally entered the seventh battalion student camp. Originally, he was just thin and tall, but after entering the army, he ate better, which caused Li Chen to grow stronger and stronger, and his height reached 1.86 meters as if he was developing for the second time. This side shows one thing, that is, as long as the Chinese are well nourished, the height should far exceed the Asian level, especially the Shandong race, and many men can reach the European average height.
Li Chen dragged them up one by one, Liu Enbo and Wen Ju were depressed, who made this kid have a lot of strength.
