"Your Excellency, I also agree with the abandonment of Mexico City! Now, the Chinese will soon launch an attack on Mexico City. With the army in the city, it is simply impossible for us to withstand the attack of the Chinese! It is even more impossible to hold on until the Americans arrive! While the Chinese have not yet fully consolidated the siege outside Mexico City, we are still able to break through. If it's late, there's no chance! "War Minister Karl? Perez also built yì road.

"Your Excellency, the U.S. Ambassador asks for a meeting!" At this time, the chief of guard of the presidential palace came in and reported.

"Please!" Dias said hurriedly. Now, he has taken the Americans as the last straw!

Soon, Smith, the mustache of the U.S. ambassador to Mexico, entered Dias's office.

"Your Excellency, can your country's army go south as soon as possible, the Chinese will soon launch an attack on Mexico City, with the strength we have now, it is difficult to hold Mexico City!" Dias said with a dumb eye. This tyrant, who has ruled Mexico for more than 20 years, seems to have lost the sharpness he had at the beginning and is about to come to an end.

"Your Excellency, I have come to inform you of this. The speed of the Chinese's advancement is completely beyond our imagination. Now it seems that it will be difficult for our army to get here before Mexico City is breached. Therefore, the American side advised you to abandon Mexico City and break out to the south. If you wish, you can also go to northern Mexico, where our Navy has already sent warships to wait in Veracruz. The Chinese do not have a navy in the Gulf of Mexico, and you can safely reach the northern region of Mexico! Ambassador Smith advised.

President Dias's face. All of a sudden, it became very ugly. He didn't expect it. The U.S. ambassador also came to persuade him to abandon Mexico City. Mexico is a poor country. Mexico City, on the other hand, is the best part of the country and the foundation of Dias. If he loses Mexico City, he will lose the foundation of his rule over Mexico.

But if he stayed in Mexico City, his life could be in danger. It was clear that with tens of thousands of demoralized troops in Mexico City, it was simply impossible to stop the Chinese attack. Once Mexico City is breached. And it was his end.

"Your Excellency, let's retreat as much as we can! If it's too late, it'll be too late! Home Minister Dennis also advised.

Dias was still a little hesitant. He no longer had the ambitions of his youth. Now he just wants a stable Mexico, but he can't achieve what he wants in the middle of nowhere. Díaz is very resentful of China, and if it weren't for the Chinese valuing Mexico's geographical location, he wouldn't have been so wolfish.

"Your Excellency, as long as you live, the Mexican government will remain. If you die. That's nothing. Leave Mexico City now and be able to come back in the future. Just wait for our army to defeat the squadron. You'll be back in Mexico City, and you'll still be the master! Ambassador Smith advised.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! "Suddenly, there was an earth-shattering explosion, like thunder.

"Your Excellency President, this is the sound of heavy artillery from the Chinese. The attack of the Chinese is about to begin! "War Minister Karl? Perez said with some horror. He once led the army to resist the attack of the Chinese, and was deeply touched by the fierce shelling and strong attack of the squadron. He knew very well that the combat power of the squadron was not something that the Mexican government army could resist at all.

"Alright! Evacuate Mexico City! Karl, ordered two divisions to be responsible for breaking off the rear and resisting the attack of the Chinese, and the rest of the troops, all to the south! Díaz finally made up his mind. The attack of the Chinese forced him to make a decision immediately. If it's late, it may really be too late. He doesn't want to die here, he wants to make a comeback!

"Yes, Your Excellency President, I'll arrange it at once!" Cal? Perez said.

At this moment, the government soldiers in Mexico City have panicked. Although, many of the Mexican government forces are die-hard diehards of Dias. But in the face of the attack of the squadron, it is difficult for them to muster up the courage to fight for Dias.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! "To the north of Mexico City, more than 300 heavy guns of the squadron, divided into more than a dozen artillery positions, are launching a fierce artillery bombardment of the Mexican government army's defensive line. Fireballs rose one by one in the positions of the Mexican government forces, and their positions were completely enveloped in gunsmoke. A large number of Mexican soldiers, holding their heads, huddled and shivering in the trenches.

The task of attacking Mexico City fell on the head of the squadron. Pancho? Villa's peasant rebel army and Madero's 100,000-strong army were responsible for blocking the other three sides of Mexico City and preventing Díaz from escaping. It's not that the squadron wants to gnaw hard bones, it's really because it's a little too late. The Americans are rapidly advancing southward, and in order to prevent the occurrence of variables, it is necessary to overthrow Diaz's rule. So. The squadron took on the task of the main attack.

The resistance of the Mexican government forces was very weak. When the fortifications they built were blown up under the heavy shelling of the squadron, their will to resist almost collapsed.

The 11th Division of the Chinese Army, after the shelling, launched an attack on Mexico City. Along the way, the momentum was like a bamboo, and with just one charge, it broke through the defensive positions of the Mexican government army outside the city and attacked the city.

South of Mexico City, is Pancho? The defense area of the peasant rebel army of Villa. More than 100,000 peasant rebels, responsible for defending the south and east sides of Mexico City. Pancho? Villa, too, is based south of Mexico City. Pancho at the moment? Villa, full of red light and high spirits. The thought of overthrowing Diaz's rule at once, and then being able to replace him as the ruler of Mexico, made him very happy. I think that at the beginning, he was also oppressed by the cavalry patrol, and he couldn't stand it anymore, so he put down his hoe and embarked on the road of resisting the dictatorship of Dias. He never imagined that there would be such a day!

"Stupid Dias, actually dared to refuse the request of the Chinese, thinking that if he hugged the thighs of the Americans, he would be safe? The Chinese are much stronger than the Americans! "Pancho? Villa thought secretly. If it were not for the pro-American attitude of the Díaz government, the Chinese would not have chosen a proxy to overthrow Díaz's rule. Thinking of this, Pancho? Villa secretly made up his mind that he must follow the Chinese closely. Even if he loses some Mexican benefits, as long as he can go through the glory and wealth, it will be completely worth it!

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! "Suddenly, there was a burst of shelling, Pancho? Villa couldn't help but frown.

"What's going on, how did the Chinese artillery do it?" Pancho? Villa thought secretly.

According to the plan, at this moment the Chinese artillery should be violently bombarding Mexico City! But how he listened to the bombardment, it seemed to be very close to his headquarters.

Then the sound of shelling continued to sound, and even a shell exploded near his headquarters, and the dust falling from the roof made him look dusty!

"Commander, government troops, government troops are coming!" Suddenly, the door of the headquarters was pushed open, and an officer of the peasant rebel army hurriedly ran in and asked Pancho? Villa reported.

"What? Government forces called? They should be resisting the Chinese! "Pancho? Villa's face was full of disbelief. Then, it occurred to him that Dias must have known that Mexico City couldn't hold it, so he wanted to break through. Unfortunately, his defense area was chosen by the government forces as a place to break out.

"Order all the troops, hold their positions, and be sure to stop the attack of the government army. Send a telegram to the Chinese immediately and ask them to come to our aid quickly! "Pancho? Villa ordered. At the moment, he only had more than 60,000 troops here, and the rest of the army was placed east of Mexico City.

"Attack! Break through the defenses of those untouchables, or we'll all be doomed! "Officers of all levels of the Mexican government army gave the soldiers the order to attack.

Tens of thousands of government soldiers launched an attack on the peasant rebels on the opposite side. And Pancho? The peasant rebel army in Villa, which had been blown up in the previous shelling, was unable to form a strong resistance at all.

Pancho? The composition of the peasant rebel army in Villa is very complex. There were bankrupt farmers, herders, artisans, small traders, and so on. Although the size of the army has expanded dramatically, and there are more than 100,000 people, the combat effectiveness is very low. Don't say that it is not the opponent of the Mexican government army, even if it is Madero's 50,000 troops, if the two sides fight with real knives and guns, Pancho? Villa may not be able to beat it either.

"Da Da Da! Bang bang bang! "Heavy machine guns are constantly strafing, and the rifles in the hands of government soldiers are also firing frequently, Pancho? The peasant rebel army of Villa suffered heavy losses. The front-line position, which lasted less than twenty minutes, was broken through. The soldiers of the peasant rebel army who were defending the frontline fled frantically backwards, not only losing their positions, but also spreading panic to the entire peasant rebel army.

An hour later, Mexican government forces broke through the positions of the peasant rebels. The more than 60,000 peasant rebels under Villa's command collapsed directly under the attack of the Mexican government army. And Pancho? Villa, who was also powerless to return to heaven, led a group of henchmen to flee eastward. Díaz and the others, take the opportunity to break through and retreat south! (To be continued......)
