Chapter 259: Differential Treatment of Blacks
It is foreseeable that during the Revolutionary War, the blood of Indian slaves and blacks was basically shed, and a group of poor protein people were added to it!
And those upper-class whites who really grasped the power of the rebel army, even if they were defeated, they were only the most prominent ones who were unlucky, and the rest of them were scattered, and they with rich assets could change places and continue to live, and then wait for the time to come!
Even some behind-the-scenes supporters don't even need to move the place, and the defeat of the rebel army will only lose a batch of property, once it is victorious, it is to turn over and become the master!
The Spanish colonial government was defeated, and it was by no means possible that the lower Indian natives, who occupied the majority of the population, were in charge, and the high-ranking rulers were definitely still white-skinned!
The only difference is that when the people of Latin America were colonized, they had to provide for Spain in Europe, and after independence, this part of the burden was gone!
With this calculation, the pressure on the people will naturally be reduced!
The new white ruler does not need to squeeze the natives to the limit like the Spaniards, and can live very comfortably!
Just like Zhao Dutian now, his empire's oppression of the people is quite ruthless, but at least everyone can eat enough!
The Han Empire, which has been studying Latin America for many years, has naturally seen through the measurement of those nationalists, nationalism is just a slogan to shout, and driving out the Spanish aristocracy to be the masters of their own affairs is the purpose of this group of native white elites!
Compared to shouting slogans, who has Zhao Dutian been afraid of?
Therefore, the Lianglu army of the Han Empire was heavily instructed to disintegrate the rebel army with preferential policies such as tax exemption before setting out, and then carry out a military attack on the stubborn rebel army!
Nadora's words are indeed very moving, isn't the rebellion of the people in the town just want tax exemption and freedom?
Independence was just shouted out in passing, anyway, the Han Empire is also the empire of the Americans, and it seems good to take refuge in the past!
Moreover, it is rumored that the national treatment of the Han Empire is good, and the citizens of the Han Empire come to them to do business, and they are all very arrogant!
Indeed, a country's military strength often determines its international status, and as for economic, political, and diplomatic affairs......
It's not unimportant, but compared with the hard power - the army, then it has to be put on the second line!
The history of Zhao Dutian's previous life illustrates this point very well!
The Soviet Union, a superpower, is inferior to the United States in terms of economy, science and technology, and people's living conditions are even worse than those of the United States......
But they can be ranked as one of the world's two superpowers alongside the United States!
Because of what?
It's not that the Soviet Union has a large land area, it's not that the Soviet Union has more people, than there are more people, Zhao Dutian's motherland shouts second, who dares to shout first?
There is only one reason why the Soviet Union can fight against the United States, a powerful and deterrent army!
And the reason for the collapse of the USSR was also simple, the army mutinied......
Even after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the United States is dominant, not because of its invincible economic and political strength, but because the US military is invincible in the world!
Why should the U.S. government continue to live with swagger when it is in debt, and continue to borrow money from rich countries all over the world!
Those countries know that the Americans are already in debt, but they still have to pinch their noses and borrow money, is it not because of the military power of the United States?
There is no one who can reach this level of borrowing money and not repaying it, and repaying it......
Not only that, but the arrogance of the Americans abroad is by no means a matter of words, because the US government has this strength, and they can achieve their goals without protest and condemnation!
In the same way, although the life of the people of the Han Empire was relatively difficult, the victories of the Han Empire against the Kingdom of Spain were in front of them, and when their citizens went to the Viceroyalty of New Spain, they were naturally proud of the locals from the bottom of their hearts!
They themselves may not feel anything and take everything for granted, but when the locals look at the pride of the people of the Han Empire, they say that it is impossible not to envy, envy and hate it!
Just like Zhao Dutian's compatriots in his previous life, for the Chinese people who settled in the United States and got green cards, there is a reason to envy and envy them, this kind of national pride is the most obvious embodiment of international status!
Moreover, this kind of deficit in the hearts of the people is also very dangerous in foreign wars, once the country that even the common people thought was very strong came in, most people probably would not have much resistance to the change of national identity, and the residents of this town are examples!
When he learned that he could also become a member of the powerful American Empire, even if there were so many white people who were unwilling, they had to lay down their arms and accept the arrangements of Nadora and others!
In this way, this town of thousands of people hung the flag of the Han Empire bloodlessly!
The slogan of free tribute and freedom shouted by the Han Empire is obviously much greater than the results of the bayonet!
Under the propaganda and military deterrence of the American Native Guard of the Han Empire, there was almost no fighting in the entire northern region of Mexico, and it was completely surrendered!
A small number of large white landowners, no matter how unwilling they are, are powerless to resist under this trend!
The success of the Han Empire reflects the suddenness of the uprising that took place in the Viceroyalty of New Spain and the lack of preparation!
Almost 80 percent of the rebels saw Hidalgo's success and followed the trend to overthrow the local Spanish colonial government, which had no garrison, or where the militia was originally a family. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Even, in many of the towns that revolted, the administrators did not change, that is, the sheriff and the mayor of the town, changed their clothes, made a speech to fool the Indian slaves, promised a bunch of benefits, burned the Spanish flag, and the revolution was successful......
It is conceivable that these rebels faced tens of thousands of bayonets of the Han Empire, plus how many low-level Indian slaves could resist in the face of the tens of thousands of bayonets promised by Hidalgo!
However, there is one thing in the propaganda of the Han Empire that is still different from Hidalgo's slogan, and that is the disposal of black slaves!
Hidalgo didn't think about what the blacks promised at all, even the Indian slaves didn't care about the blacks, Hidalgo naturally didn't think about them, but he didn't continue to restrict the blacks!
But! The army of the Han Empire, however, strictly discriminates against all black slaves!
Regardless of whether they were slaves before or not, as long as they were blacks, they were all arrested and used as official slaves of the Han Empire, and those who resisted were shot on the spot!
