Chapter 489: Three-legged

With the continuous funding of the Seven-Nation Alliance, the left-wing members of the Conservative Party and the Liberal Party and religious forces in Ecuador continued to send people to make trouble, and Mao Guomin commanded the troops to capture them little by little, and every time they were not completely killed, they would leave a little hope, and the escaped personnel would continue to organize similar riots, the power of destruction was not great, and it did not affect the normal life of many people, but the free labor captured by Mao Guomin continued to increase.

The Xia Empire fulfilled its original promise to the Ecuadorian cabinet to develop the local economy and benefit the local people; The first thing is to build a barracks, otherwise there will be more and more officers and soldiers coming, and there must always be a station; secondly, funds were invested in the construction of roads between the cities and counties, as well as the construction of a railway from Quito to the northern port and to Bogotá; It also took advantage of the superior limestone resources in the local area to open several large cement plants; A number of ports have been built in coastal areas, and several large power plants have been built in port cities, but due to the lack of local coal resources, they can only be transported from Colombia and North America, which are relatively rich in coal reserves, so for the time being, power plants can only be built in coastal port cities and places with convenient inland transportation.

There are also other areas of infrastructure, on the basis of employing local civilians, and a lot of free labor, so now Mao expects them to create more riots, and he can capture more people to work.

In contrast, the United States has completely handed over several North American states at the beginning of the year, and there are few people left, and then slowly migrated to South America; Even several islands in the West Indies were given over to the administration of the state of Lu.

Now North America and the entire West Indies have completely become the territory of the Xia Empire's vassal state of Lu, which is vast and sparsely populated.

The United States has fulfilled its original promise, and the Xia Empire will also complete the agreement signed with the Americans, but the Xia Empire has played a small trick, and the inferior approach has made the Americans very dissatisfied, in addition to the high prices of food and energy provided in several ports, which have taken up a large amount of aid funds, and what is even more distressing is that the Xia Empire has provided a large amount of support to the United States for light weapons, and it is a second-hand weapon that has been eliminated, and the aid to heavy weapons is very small, so that the United States has lost again and again when fighting against the Seven-Nation Alliance.

What is even more hateful is that the Xia Empire also exported a large number of warships and heavy weapons with excellent performance to the Seven-Nation Alliance, which the Americans are even more unwilling to see.

Also, the Xia Empire took advantage of the United States to contain the Seven-Nation Alliance, and frantically expanded its occupation in South America, and now the northern part of South America is all the territory of the Xia Empire, and a three-legged situation has been formed in South America, one side is the United States, one side is the Seven Nations Alliance, and the other side is the South American theater of the Xia Empire; Moreover, the three forces have millions of troops, and no one can help anyone at present.

The Xia Empire first occupied Guyana, then the area north of the Amazon River, then occupied Colombia in partnership with the United States, then sent troops to destroy the United States of Venezuela, and finally forced the Republic of Ecuador to surrender; Without much effort, a large area of territory in the northern part of South America was occupied by means of gradual encroachment.

Now everyone in the world knows how greedy the Xia Empire is for land, and it will definitely not give up encroaching on the rest of South America; The United States, like the G7, is under a lot of pressure.

The Seven-Nation Alliance continues to create small troubles in the South American theater, and the United States is also guarding against the Xia Empire, just imagining the more than one million mercenaries in the South American theater makes people shudder.

US President Theodore Roosevelt has been even more depressed recently, thinking that he has softened relations by buying some obsolete cargo ships from European countries, and wants to buy some heavy weapons from European countries, but he will not sell any of them to the United States.

Obviously, they regard the United States as a force supported by the Xia Empire, while the European countries support the Seven-Nation Alliance.

Now only the Xia Empire is willing to sell weapons, and Franklin is really unwilling to deal with the Xia Empire, which is really embarrassing.

Originally, the Seven-Nation Alliance estimated that the Xia Empire would march south after occupying Ecuador, but the Xia Empire was burying its head in economic construction, as long as it was black or black mixed-race, all of them were captured and worked as free labor, and when the labor force was insufficient, the blacks in the West Indies were wantonly transferred to the South American theater to work, making them scratch their heads.

Under these circumstances, the flames of war between the United States and the Seven-Nation Alliance, which were gradually extinguished, began to escalate again. The Xia Empire can engage in economic construction, but they can't, the war is not over, they don't have the energy to develop the economy, and if they don't get it right, they will make a wedding dress for the enemy, and the war is not over, just feeding such an army and supporting logistics is a very big pressure, how can there be strength to develop the economy? Therefore, the United States and the Seven-Nation Alliance want to finish the war first, and as for whether they will fight against the Xia Empire after the war is over, no one dares to say now, they can only take one step at a time; Otherwise, the longer the delay, the more detrimental it will be to them, and in the end it is possible to drag them down.

The ambassador to the United States, Li Jingfa, had completed his mission and had planned to return to China to recuperate for a while, but a telegram from His Majesty the Emperor frustrated his dream, and he was appointed Minister of Foreign Affairs under the Government Council of the South American Theater.

I really don't understand, the state of Lu occupies such a large territory, or it is called the kingdom, and it is just called the kingdom, and there is no foreign ministry; The South American theater of operations is not even a royal state, at best it is a colony, but has a foreign ministry.

Although he couldn't figure it out, he had to conscientiously carry out His Majesty's orders, so he had to set off for Bogotá with his colleagues from the former embassy in the United States.

As soon as Li Jingfa and his team arrived in Bogotá, and before even the office location and accommodation had been arranged, a telegram from His Majesty the Emperor came, and he was given three tasks: first, to sell weapons to the United States and the Qi Alliance, as long as there was money or materials, the equipment in active service could be sold to them; The second task, uniting one side to fight the other, must not let them stop the war, and whoever wants to stop the war will fight; Third, carefully study the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

Premier Song Shijie understood Zhang Wei's intentions, temporarily maintaining the tripartite balance of power in South America, it doesn't matter if he lives or dies, what matters is that the war can't stop; However, it is indeed appropriate to use the Three Kingdoms as a metaphor for the tripartite forces, occupying the South American theater north of the Amazon River is equivalent to Cao, the United States south of the Amazon River is equivalent to Sun occupying Jiangdong, and the Seven-Nation Alliance is equivalent to Liu who relies on natural dangers to defend.

Now the Xia Empire can completely defeat either of their two forces, if the two of them work together to deal with the Xia Empire, the Xia Empire will also have a headache, mainly because the combined population of the two of them is close to 200 million, which is very terrifying, and it is also Zhang Wei's biggest headache, so it must rely on war to consume most of the population, so that it will be easy to rule and manage after completely occupying South America.

Feeling that he had seen through the trick, Song Shijie looked at Li Jingfa with pity and said: "The work of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has a long way to go. ”
