Because California law requires Chinese workers too much, anyway, if Chinese workers go to mine gold, they will lose their lives, even if the boss who hired them will pay for it. Therefore, the mines where the Chinese workers are located are all iron mines, coal mines, etc., but these mines are not profitable enough.

What time is it?

It's chaos here in California!

When a place has gold, but when gold is more than flour, the flour is naturally more expensive than gold!

San Francisco, Sacramento, nearly 300,000 people, their material consumption is huge, and now, Panama is stuck, the southern mail route is stuck, the Spanish trail is also stuck, the materials are too small, the gold is cheap, it is too normal.

In such a world, those who were originally robbers, robbers, and murderers, and they just watched themselves starve to death?

Fuck it!

So, in many mines in the Sierra Nevada, do overseers still earn a small salary? Many of them joined the robbery brigade early in the morning, and they returned to San Francisco, back to Sacramento to do their old jobs.

As a result, the workers' rebellion that started under the anger of the old man was really quite successful, but success also came at a price.

"Brothers, go on the road with peace of mind!" Seeing a lot of corpses, they used to be killed with themselves, but I didn't expect to be still in America.

The old man of the fog wind didn't feel good in his heart, and this time he rioted. Two hundred and ten brothers saw God, and hundreds were wounded.

To be honest, I really have to thank God for such casualties. If it weren't for the decline in the number of overseers, and if it weren't for the fact that the weapons in their hands were also terrible, this group of hungry Taiping troops, even if they had a lot of experience in fighting before, would not have ended very well.

"Old Dao, what should we do next?" Li Zheyang is a more practical person, so let's think about the next days first.

"Below?" The old road of fog and wind only found out at this time. He doesn't seem to have summed up what should be done below.

This is really the truth, although the old road of fog and wind participated in the rebellious organization. But that organization talked about how good it would be after the capitalists were overthrown, and how good it would be after the proletariat itself became the house.

But I didn't say that if this rebellion succeeded, what would happen next. Not really.

Are Yang Guangren and Lin Xiaoyi too bad?

It's really not, because there was no next step, and Li Mengyang didn't explain too much, because in his initial thoughts, the next step was to lead these Chinese workers by himself, so it would be good to see when the time came.

But what now?

"Comrade Fog Wind! Comrade Fog Wind! "At this time, Lin Xiaoyi and they came.

"......" To be honest, Wufeng doesn't want to see these people, and he just finished arguing with them. However, he can't be seen because of the next step. He wanted to know too.

"Comrade Fog Wind!" That Lin Xiaoyi hurriedly ran in front of the foggy wind, "We have come to this point now, and the comrades in the other mining areas have also rebelled, so let's not care about anything, hurry up and pack up the team and fight to the west!" ”

"Westside?" Fog Wind: This is a bit confusing.

"To the west, it's all big cities. San Francisco is close to the sea, there must be something to eat! Isn't what we need now to eat? Actually, Lin Xiaoyi didn't know. The whole of California eats less now, but his arrangement is still relatively correct, at least he can't wait to die in the Nevada mountains.

"Then ......," Fog Wind immediately remembered something, "what are we going to eat now?" ”

"Tell the brothers to dig wild vegetables! It is a bite to be able to deal with! "Lin Xiaoyi's method is really good, the foggy wind's eyes are lit up.

We Chinese are so tenacious, there is no other nation in this world to compare!

It should be said that the whole of California is undergoing rapid changes, and it seems that no one can control it, and what is the initiator of all these things doing now?

"Let's go!"

"Left! …… Left! ”

Beep! Beep!

A long procession was slowly moving through the land of California, and they couldn't go as fast as they could, and everyone measured it on two legs, and those with four legs, but they had to be released for the scouts.

"Report to Your Majesty!"

"Please."

"No enemy forces five miles away!"

"Good!"

Watching the scout salute and leave, Li Mengyang sat on the horse and frowned slightly.

What's the trouble?

"Why didn't you run into the U.S. military in California?" That's it!

Generally speaking, you should be happy if you can't touch the enemy, but Li Mengyang is different, he has a sense of crisis, what he is afraid of is that those Yankees set a trap for themselves and drill into it!

You must know that the current army in Li Mengyang's hands is a total of 10,000 people, and in Los Angeles and San Bernardino, Li Mengyang left 5,000, and the person in charge of these two defenses is Okasi, a lieutenant colonel of the revolutionary army who has experienced real battles.

This is a necessary arrangement, because Li Mengyang's attack on California this time, a key point is to block the traffic arteries, if you want to win, you must be stuck, and he has done this now, he has choked California's throat, so naturally he can't lose such a place.

In the analysis of many texts, Li Mengyang knew that he had made some mistakes before, such as he thought that California's heavy troops should be in the north of California, that is, San Francisco and Sacramento, because there is a large population there, and volunteers can be recruited.

But in fact, the main force of the U.S. military in California is actually in the south, that is, the town of Yuma, which is the border of Mexico, and the Mexican-American War has only passed for more than ten years, so it always has to be guarded against, but fortunately, it is said that it is the main force, but there are not many.

And fortunately, the American troops in the south were not mobilized, probably because there was no news there, the telegraph lines had not been laid there, or the California government did not dare to move these troops at all. They also have to hold the frontier.

But despite this, in order to be foolproof, Li Mengyang still left 5,000 revolutionary troops on the front line in Los Angeles and San Bernardino. This is the key position, and it is also the last reliance on yourself.

In case his attack on the northern front of California fails, then the troops in Los Angeles will be his bargaining chip for Li Mengyang to turn defeat into victory.

Defeat before victory, Sun Tzu's Art of War.

Actually, it's not a military art, it's just that Li Mengyang is more cautious this time, on the one hand, there are not many people in his hands. On the other hand, he doesn't have any intelligence sources now, so he can't help it. Time was too tight to do all this stuff, and because California was so important, he was going to take this place. This will be his foundation!

So, be careful......

The troops led by Li Mengyang are battalions step by step, so the march speed of these 5,000 people can't be fast, and Lin Xiaoyi, Yang Guangren, and Wufeng can't be fast.

Hungry!

There was no food in the mining area, and although there were more rations for the original overseers after the riot, where was there enough to eat?

The number of Chinese workers is close to 20,000, most of them are young men, and they have enough to eat.

But there's a good thing. That is, the Chinese laborers are close to slaves, so those capitalists use Chinese laborers to mine, and as for the other workers, they do not look down on them. Therefore, our team is very pure, all Chinese workers.

Then everyone is more united and cohesive, so everyone is also very good at digging wild vegetables.

Walk all the way and dig all the way. Originally, the distance was not far, but it was not until more than ten days passed. The Chinese workers have just come to Sacramento!

Sacramento, which is the former Fort Sutter, was the beginning of the gold rush, and in 1848 at Fort Sutter here, a carpenter picked up a piece of gold, and the gold rush broke out.

Gold rush, everyone is here for this gold, then this is the center of the gold rush, and the capital of California has moved here, so there should be a lot of talent in this place. However, when the Chinese workers came to this place, they found that there were not many people here!

What about people? It's weird!

Where did most of them go?

It's very simple, all the Yankees can run to San Francisco!

Why?

I found out when I asked, because there is food in San Francisco, and the basic order of a society can be relatively maintained there!

After there was a great shortage of materials, wouldn't the robbery come out, everyone stopped robbing gold, they all robbed flour instead, but where is the flour?

Now the place with the most flour in the whole of California is San Francisco, because this place is a seaport!

Although many passages in California are blocked, San Francisco is a port after all, after all, you can go out to find food, and you really can't go to the south, but you can go to the north, Portland and other places in the north because there is no gold rush, so the people who can be willing to stay there can farm with peace of mind, that is, there is food.

Now that the grain is suddenly expensive, then it is not sold?!

As a result, there began to be more flour from the north here in San Francisco, as well as some daily necessities.

It should be said that this situation is still very normal and conforms to the laws of the market economy, but the grain in the north is also limited, there are not many people there, and the population situation is the same as that of the ordinary west, and you can meet a few families when you walk 180 miles, and most of them are mountainous areas, and the grain output is not much, and there are more than 300,000 people here in California who want to eat.

As a result, robberies still happen regularly, but this San Francisco is also the last hope, so the California government moved back!

In this way, at least there is some help in law and order, but this creates a new problem.

Trapped in the Lonely City!

Yes, that's the situation, and it's a non-external situation, and the California government itself has trapped itself in this San Francisco.

What's even more interesting is that the real good people are running outside the city, because the robbers are going into the city, and these good people are thinking that they can go to the countryside and farm, and as long as they survive for a while, they can at least live that life.

California is actually full of undeveloped land, and there are a lot of crazy crops, as long as you get through this section.

……

On September 1st, the Chinese workers from the Sierra Nevada mining area finally saw their final destination......

"Comrades! Brothers! Lin Xiaoyi made a final motivational speech, "I don't have to say anything now, there is San Francisco in front of us, there are things we want, and if you don't want to eat wild vegetables, rush in!" ”

"Oooo

In fact, right now, wild vegetables can't be eaten, so there is no need to mobilize at all.

Thus, a wave of ant-attached siege began! (To be continued)
