Viceroyalty of New Spain, capital of Mexico, Viceroyalty's Office. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The envoy sent by Philip V was here with Flores. Governor Fruella's 'private chat'.

"Your Excellency Pivos, I know that this time I underestimated the strength of the emerging Indian empire, and sent General Garcia over without any scruples, and I didn't expect that General Garcia would be so 'careless' and get a crushing defeat in the battle against the Indian army!"

Flores. Governor Fruella, in front of the King's envoy, looked like he had admitted his mistake, but opened his mouth to pull Garcia's guilt out, while the Pivoste envoy kept smiling and listening to Flores. Viceroy of Fruella's 'shirk' until Flores. Fruela felt that he had almost said it, so Pivos picked up the red wine that had already been placed beside him, took a sip, and replied without hurry: "Your Excellency, I don't think you know the purpose of my coming here, I am not here on the orders of the king, not to thoroughly investigate the loss of responsibility in the city of Monterrey, those things are no different from transparency in the eyes of His Majesty the great King Philip V, I am here only to announce the king's views on the territory of Spain across the ocean. ”

Speaking of which, Pivos paused deliberately, as if admiring Flores. Fruella's face gradually sank, and she took a sip of red wine by the way. Fruela felt a tightness in her chest, and if she could, Flores. Governor Fruela wanted to take out the diamond-encrusted flintlock handcuff in his desk drawer and shoot Pivos' skull!

Obviously, as long as Flores. Fruella did not want to be hanged on the gallows the next day, or to be escorted to Philip V after hard labor, and then go to the gallows, he still had to restrain his emotions......

Truth be told, this feeling is right for Flores. For Fruella, it's terrible!

"Flores. Your Excellency Governor Fruella, I will not say the specific reasons, but I will directly declare the will of His Majesty the King, although the heroic General García was defeated, his willingness to fight to the death against the Indians is very worthy of the learning of the Spanish people.

It is not difficult to see that General Garcia is definitely serious about the enemy, and not lost to the Indians due to arrogance and arrogance, as the rumors say, after all, no one will joke with their own lives.

However, this raises the question of why the mighty Spanish army, even if it relied on the defense of the city, was defeated at the hands of the barbaric Indians. Even if the Indian army is on par with ours, it will not be possible to defeat the forces of the entire Viceroyalty of New Spain under the leadership of the heroic Garcia!

Your Excellency, am I right? ”

Flores. Fruella defended with an ugly face: "No, no, no, there are already citizens of Monterrey who have fled back to prove that General Garcia was careless in the past, and arbitrarily mobilized the main army out of the city to fight the Indians in the field, so it led to a catastrophic continuous rout!" ”

Pivos put down the red wine in his hand and stared at Flores with a sad look. "The testimonies of the citizens of Monterrey, who were chased around like a rat by the Indians, will be rigorously vetted!" Moreover, it seems that there are many citizens of Monterrey who have been claiming that General García fought to the death to the end, and died on the battlefield with the soldiers!

Flores. Your Excellency Governor Fruella, do you think His Majesty the King will believe this ambiguous testimony?

But!

There are some things in front of you, but the evidence is very conclusive!

I would like to ask Your Excellency the Governor, why did General García, when he was stationed in the city of Monterey to preside over the military affairs, receive men from the Governor's Office to take over the military affairs without moving his troops?

Don't you know that the Han Empire of the Indians at that time had expanded its sphere of influence to the periphery of the west coast of California?

Another point, the regular army units of all the cities on the west coast of California, in the recent battle against the Han Empire, have been drawn most of them, and in the end there are not a few people back, and in this case, you let General Garcia, with only his own guards, take over the military affairs of the west coast of the California region, Flores. Fruella, how much you hate Garcia! ”

Flores. Cold sweat was already breaking out on Governor Fruera's forehead, he was not afraid of Pivos, who was inferior to himself in this position, because he knew that at this moment, what Pivos said was basically what Philip V meant behind him!

This......

Could it be that Philip V had taken complete control of the situation in the country and began to knife the colonies?

At this time, he is not afraid of an uprising in a colony with an unstable foundation?!

Pivos sees Flores. After Fruella was silent, he changed his words and said: "However, His Majesty also understands your situation at that time, after all, no one expected that the Han Empire would burst out with such a strong army, this time, there was a Garcia martyrdom, and His Majesty the King hoped that Flores. Governor Fruella, can remember this lesson, in this place full of traitors and 'demons', Flores. His Excellency Governor Fruella can understand that he should no longer be obsessed with internal power struggles, for in any case, we are all Spaniards, and no one wants to see the land laid down by our ancestors stolen by the barbarians. ”

"Yes, yes, Your Excellency Pivos is right, His Majesty the King is wise and righteous, we are blinded by lard, and now is the time to need the unity of our glorious Spaniards, and we must not give those who are a small opportunity to take advantage of it!"

Pivos heard Flores. Fruella's reply, smiled, drank the red wine in his hand, put it on the cabinet next to him, pursed his lips and said: "So, let's talk about the next situation, the current situation is that San Francisco is surrounded by the Indian army of the Han Empire on three sides, right, does it only need to wait until Zhao Dutian of the Han Empire clarifies the interior, will it fall?" ”

Flores. Fruela looked at Pivos in confusion, wondering why he had suddenly mentioned an 'insignificant' San Francisco. Fruella still replied very respectfully: "Our navy is very strong, and there is not a single sampan of the Han Empire that can be launched on the entire west coast, so we can still guarantee the supply and battle of San Francisco!" ”
