"Mr. Feng, when will your country's army be able to appear! Dias's army is coming, and they have at least 100,000 men to encircle us! If your army doesn't arrive in time, we're doomed! Pancho Villa said to Lieutenant Colonel Feng Yunsheng with an anxious face.

When he was in Gomez Palacio, the reason why Pancho Villa agreed to abandon the southward march and march to the southwest Pacific coast was that Lieutenant Colonel Feng Yunsheng assured him that China would never sit idly by and let them be wiped out, which made Pancho Villa regain his confidence. Although Dias's army is strong, China is a world power, and China's strength is far from being comparable to Dias. As long as China intervened, Nadias's attempt to suppress the peasant uprising in Mexico would have been a complete failure!

"Don't worry, Mr. Villa, the army sent by the Empire is already on its way and will arrive soon!" Lieutenant Colonel Feng Yunsheng replied. Although he said so, in fact, he was completely bottomless in his heart. Now that the peasant uprising in Mexico has become what it is now, he does not know whether China will intervene or not. It's just that the order given to him by Colonel Xu Mao is to let him be with Pancho Villa in Mazatlan so that he can make Pancho Villa feel at ease.

On the morning of 21 December Beijing time, after receiving a report from General Wei Zhiyong, director of the Military Intelligence Bureau, Wang Yuze immediately summoned Xiong Wu, chief of the General Staff, Cai Yun, minister of the army, Zhang Cheng, minister of the navy, Jiang Xingguo, minister of national defense, and Wu Tingfang, minister of foreign affairs, to discuss the current situation in Mexico.

"The specific situation, let Director Wei introduce it to you first!" Wang Yuze said expressionlessly.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we started to deploy in Mexico two years ago. It's just that the progress has not been much. Mexico is in the hands of dictator Dias. From the military to government officials, all were people who owed allegiance to him. Dias's control of Mexico is very tight, and we have never had a chance. It wasn't until three months ago that the people we chose were ready to start an uprising in Mexico. It's just that the people we choose don't seem to be too ideal. The first object of support, after the uprising. With a hot brain, he led his army to march to Mexico City, which has been wiped out by the regular Mexican army! The second supporter, who heeded our advice at the last moment, has now retreated to Mazatlan on the Pacific coast. Merely. Their strength is only 30,000 left, and the Mexican government has invested as many as 100,000 troops to encircle and suppress it! If we rescue them, they will be wiped out by the Mexican army 100%! Admiral Wei Zhiyong said.

After Admiral Wei Zhiyong finished speaking, everyone's brows furrowed. The layout of the military intelligence agency in Mexico is very clear to everyone. It's just that people didn't expect the situation in Mexico to be so bad. Before. Everyone is still too optimistic, thinking that the situation in Mexico will be opened up as easily as Chile. But now it seems that the situation is not good!

"Let's all share our opinions! For the case of Mexico. Should we get involved? What are the consequences once you get involved? Wang Yuze asked!

"Your Majesty, I think the Empire should intervene. Mexico may be small, but its geographical location is very important. If only a pro-China Mexican government could emerge. It will undoubtedly be very beneficial for our war with the United States in the future. We can easily bypass the heavily defended West Coast of the United States. Directly from Mexico, attack the hinterland of the United States! War Minister Cai Yun said. The Americans continued to build fortifications on the West Coast, which was a major headache for both the Army and the Navy. Although the original treaty stipulated that the United States could not keep warships with a displacement of more than 10,000 tons on the West Coast, it did not stipulate that the Americans could not build forts on the West Coast. After the end of the last war, the Americans, having suffered a big loss in the war, have strengthened the defenses of the west coast and are ready to resist the attack of the squadron! After the Americans fortified the West Coast of the United States, there was no doubt that it would cause very big problems for the squadron. Once the war begins, the squadron will probably pay a heavy price if it breaks through these fortresses. And Mexico's role is highlighted here.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks, we shouldn't intervene. After all, this is only an internal affair of Mexico, and if the empire intervenes rashly, it will seriously damage the empire's image in the international community. No matter which country invades another sovereign country without reason, the impact will be very bad. In addition, behind Dias, there is the support of the Americans. Once the Empire intervenes in Mexico, it is likely that a conflict between the Empire and the United States will be planned, and even become the fuse for the next major war. Now, the Empire is not ready for war, and if it causes a war, it will be very disadvantageous to the Empire! Foreign Minister Ng Dinh Fong said.

"Majesty, Chen thinks, we should intervene. Either way, Mexico's location is too important for us to let go. Otherwise, in the next war against the United States, we must be prepared to die at least 100,000 more! Navy Minister Zhang Cheng said. The officers and men of the Marine Corps have always been worried about the United States strengthening the defense of the West Coast. When the next big war breaks out, the Marines will definitely be at the vanguard of the attack on the United States. Although the Marines were very heroic, it was very difficult for them to go head-to-head with the steel fortresses of the Americans.

After hearing the words of Zhang Cheng, Minister of the Navy, Wang Yuze's face suddenly became stern. Although there are many Chinese, 100,000 more deaths are nothing. However, if he could avoid it, he certainly didn't want to lose an extra 100,000 people. It is not easy for the empire to train an elite soldier, and if it can reduce losses in war, it is naturally the best.

"Your Majesty, the minister believes that whether or not to intervene in the Mexican war depends mainly on how much benefit the empire can achieve in Mexico. If the benefits and risks are good for the Empire, then we should intervene! Defense Minister Jiang Xingguo said. However, it is clear to everyone that his views are undoubtedly in favor of intervention. Although Mexico is poor, it is rich in resources, with large reserves of oil and silver, as well as copper and antimony ore. Moreover, just the sentence that Navy Minister Zhang Cheng said if he attacked the West Coast of the United States, the empire would pay an extra 100,000 people, which was enough to move the hearts of the military.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks, if we intervene, the Americans will certainly intervene as well. Americans will also see the danger of losing Mexico. It's just that while the empire was not ready for war, the Americans were certainly not ready for war either. Even if a war breaks out, it will certainly be a war without declaring it. The Americans are expected to reach an undeclared war, as we did in the Middle East and in Britain and France. Such a war, which would not be of great scale and would not have much impact on the economy of the empire. In addition, we can also take this opportunity to find out the current combat strength of the US Army, which can be used as a favorable reference for launching operations against the United States in the future! Therefore, I am in favor of intervening! Chief of the General Staff Xiong Wu said.

Foreign Minister Wu Tingfang couldn't help but shake his head, these military guys, one by one, are really militants! People in the military, almost all of them, support intervention in Mexico.

"Well, I know everyone's opinions, and I've already made a decision. I decided to officially intervene in Mexico. Anyway, the empire's image in the international arena is bad enough, and there is no shortage of this time. In the world, power is truth, and truth has always been within the range of artillery! There is absolutely no need for us to care about a small country like Mexico. However, in order to appease the people in the country, we still have to find good excuses. Starting tomorrow, the main newspapers of the empire will begin to write a large article about the Mexican Civil War, mainly about the brutal rule of Díaz and the indiscriminate killing of innocents by the government in the process of suppressing the uprising. Regardless of the international rhetoric, within the Empire, we must first gain the support of the people! Wang Yuze said.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The way of all.

"The General Staff, began to develop a plan for the operation of the intervention in Mexico. The Admiralty, warships cruising off the coast of Mexico, went to Mazatlan to support the besieged Mexican rebels before they were wiped out by the Mexican army! Wang Yuze said.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Xiong Wu, Chief of the General Staff, and Zhang Cheng, Minister of the Navy, received orders at the same time.

"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, hold a press conference to express to the Mexican government the Empire's protest against the wanton massacre of innocent civilians by Mexican government forces! Such an act of the Díaz government is a complete violation of life, which cannot be tolerated by any Ming country! Wang Yuze said. Although, this is a bit typical of being a bitch and trying to set up a memorial arch, but between countries, this is how it is, and all of them are focused on interests!

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Wu Tingfang also received the order.

After Wang Yuze's order was issued, China's war planes were once again in operation. It's just that against a small country like Mexico, or even the United States behind Mexico, China's warplanes don't need to run at full strength. Until the United States fights a full-scale war with China, China does not have to go all out.

The Chinese Navy's Pacific Fleet, the Sixth Army and the 3rd Marine Division deployed in the Hawaiian Islands are enough to cope with the current situation! As for whether to transfer troops from within the country, it depends on the next step of the Americans!
