Chapter 523: Immigration

At the time of the negotiations between Germany and the Xia Empire, the negotiations between Germany and Brazil were very intense. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The Brazilian government wanted the Germans to move to Germany along with the families of these soldiers, and the Germans agreed without hesitation, even if they were not the families of the officers and soldiers, they also wanted to move more Brazilians to Germany, and these cheap labor were urgently needed in Germany.

At the same time, the Brazilian government demanded that the German government treat mercenaries like the Xia Empire, and in addition to paying a certain salary, it also distributed food, salt, clothing and other necessities to their families, and provided them with temporary housing.

Brazil felt that the conditions were already low, and the Germans still felt that it was too high, after all, their lives were saved at great cost by the Germans; If a few hundred catties of grain are distributed to their families every month, then their livelihood will be guaranteed, how can they be willing to do some cheap jobs for the empire?

What's more, the cost of relocating these people to Germany is very high, in addition to the boat, they also need food, clothing, etc., after all, the climate in Brazil is too different from the climate in Germany, and Brazilians do not have so many cotton clothes.

When the Germans proposed to the Tang Kingdom that only single young and strong laborers should be immigrated, Wu Wenbin directly refused, and they reached an agreement with the Brazilian government.

In addition, the Tang Kingdom has relaxed a lot of requirements for immigrants, such as Brazilians in the encirclement of Rio de Janeiro, Germany can immigrate at will, except for precious metals, other materials can be taken away, but no damage to any infrastructure is allowed; People outside the encirclement who want to immigrate to Germany are not allowed to carry any property other than their personal clothing; The conditions were relaxed, which made the Germans very happy.

After all the conditions were negotiated and an agreement was signed, the Brazilian government officially announced its surrender to the Tang Kingdom, and the Xia Empire sent a defense division of the 2nd Army into the encirclement to accept Brazil's surrender, collect weapons, and maintain order to ensure the smooth progress of German immigration.

The emigrant Brazilians, Germany was prepared to settle them in the three provinces of East Prussia, West Prussia and Pomerania to engage in agricultural cultivation, and since these three provinces were agricultural areas and overpopulated, the Germans could call up laborers from there at any time; Placing Brazilians there would make wages cheaper in competition with each other.

Due to Germany's high latitude and cold climate, it was necessary to distribute cotton clothes to immigrants and soldiers in Brazil. The Tang Kingdom happened to sell some shabby cotton clothes and cotton military uniforms seized from Chile and Argentina to the Germans to make some small fortunes; At the same time, the Tang Kingdom also leased them a large number of ships for immigration. Brazil has surrendered, and in order to occupy these areas as soon as possible and start post-war construction, the Tang Kingdom is more than happy to provide the necessary help to Germany to speed up their migration.

Due to the war, most of the Brazilians and government managers in other provinces have become displaced people, and the families of most of the officers and soldiers can no longer be found, so the Tang Kingdom will not spend energy on them to find their families.

In order to increase the number of immigrants, the German government first formulated a roster of the army, and then sent people with a list of soldiers to various places to find their families, and the Tang Kingdom also had to admire the rigor of the Germans, of course, German immigrants were the focus of their immigration.

The speed of immigration is very slow, it takes about 3 months or more, the German General Staff re-sent a group of officers, using the waiting time to reorganize the Brazilian soldiers, according to the German establishment, these Brazilian soldiers were reorganized into 50 infantry divisions and 6 heavy artillery brigades, the number of each infantry division is 12,000 people, for the middle and low-level officers who are not satisfied with the number or shortage, after consultation between the two sides, it was decided that after returning to Germany, a part of the German military cadets who have just graduated will be sent to serve in order to strengthen their fighting.

Most of the officers and men of the volunteer army recruited from Santa Catarina were themselves immigrants from Germany, who had joined or received military training before immigrating to Brazil, and were promoted to the rank of junior officers in this reorganization; Officers secretly sent by the General Staff for training, who had distinguished themselves in the war, were promoted to the rank of division commander, including Ludendorff.

While the Brazilians in the encirclement were busy emigrating, the 3rd Army of the Tang Kingdom and some mercenaries were marching eastward one after another, receiving the Americans' territory and materials, and urging the Americans to leave as soon as possible.

First of all, the four western states that received the American occupation zone, the Tocantins region and Minas Gerais, the two states and districts, had no American residents, and it was relatively easy to receive them, just let the American troops stationed in them leave; Pick up the interior of Bahia first, the coastal areas with a large number of Americans, and its military port is also in the state, so it can only be received after they have completely moved out; Espírito Santo is a small coastal state with a small population, and this time the Tang Kingdom sent troops directly into it.

The remaining territory, the Tang Kingdom left the US government with 3 months, and it must be moved forward within 3 months, otherwise the Tang Kingdom will forcibly take over the local power.

Relatively speaking, the immigration order of Americans is much better, they have a well-established grassroots government and central organs, and the immigration work is arranged in an orderly manner.

The distance of immigration from the United States-occupied areas in South America to Liberia in Africa is very close, more than half the distance of immigrants from North America, and only one-third of the distance of German immigrants, and the migration can be completed within three months.

Although half of the transport ships of the United States were sunk by the North Atlantic Fleet, due to the proximity of the distance and the fact that they leased a lot of merchant ships from the Han Kingdom for immigration, the speed was still very fast, and besides, these Americans regarded South America as a dangerous place and wanted to leave urgently, which also made it easier to emigrate.

Of course, these Americans kept immigrating and cursing the Chinese, who kept making them move over the years, constantly encounter wars, destroy production, and make their lives impoverished.

President Roosevelt was already quite satisfied with this, and if the Xia Empire did not let him go, and they forcibly moved to Africa, it would be good to have half of the population and officers and soldiers left. This time with the Tang Kingdom, they not only plundered a large amount of wealth, paid off the arrears of the Xia Empire, but also had a lot of surplus, as long as it develops in Africa for a few years, the United States is still a powerful country; With the backing of nearly 2 million officers and men who have experienced the baptism of artillery, we believe that the Americans can expand their territory in Africa and regain their glory.

President Roosevelt's heart was also constantly cursing the Xia Empire's greed for land, and they used the United States as a tool, not only completely occupying the Americas, but finally even South America completely; Its strong military strength makes people shudder, and it seems that it can only confront it by uniting the forces of the entire white world, and it cannot completely defeat the Chinese in a short period of time.

The officers and men of the Admiralty and the War Department were also very excited, and there was no need to fight against the evil Chinese for the time being, and the black people in Africa were weak little sheep in their eyes, how could they be their opponents? Even in the face of France, they were not afraid, the French wanted to leave enough troops to defend against the Germans, and they certainly did not dare to send more troops to Africa to rob the colonies with them; Moreover, the United States has also formed an alliance with the Germans, and as long as the interests of the British are not violated, the British will not fight the Americans in Africa for the time being, and as long as the British Navy does not participate in the war, the Americans will have nothing to fear.

Ordinary Americans have also relaxed a little for the time being, and are comfortable to follow the government's arrangement, orderly immigration, hoping to live a good life in Africa.
