August 2, 1851

After being delayed for nearly two months, the troops of the Tang Kingdom gathered in Jinling City marched south, and slaughtered towards Mexico City, which was more than 400 kilometers away.

Along the way, several states were invincible, and they couldn't stop the army at all.

Ten days later

The army of the Tang Kingdom set up a temporary camp about 16 kilometers north and west of Mexico City, with a total of about 32,000 troops, including two Mexican servant divisions with a total number of 12,000 people.

The city of Jinling in the rear, which was guarded by the 3rd Cavalry Division, and the thousands of Chinese musketeers who had been reinforced this month were enough to prevent a large-scale sneak attack by Mexican government forces, if they still had the ability to do so.

When the army of the Tang Kingdom moved south, the 100,000 refugees scattered around Mexico City had retreated to the south like a tide, leaving behind a mess and corpses.

No way, the war hasn't started yet. The army of the Tang Kingdom had to hire thousands of young and strong Mexican refugees with food, and worked day and night to clear all kinds of messy shacks, messes and corpses everywhere.

Sometimes, seven or eight corpses could be dragged out of a dilapidated shack, each of them starving and skinny.

The Tang Kingdom hired refugees with food, and the tens of thousands of refugees attracted by this could not go back, or even drive away.

In the face of extreme hunger, death is not terrible.

Three days later

The battlefield under Mexico City was cleaned up, and the army of the Tang Kingdom used the temptation of a full meal every day to induce the young and strong Mexicans to fill in the trenches and fill all the trenches leading to the fortress.

Tens of thousands of Mexican refugees were like ants, carrying soil to and from the city, and on the tall city of Mexico City, the defenders fired arrows in a rage, knocking the refugees who rushed to the ground to the ground.

After a brief retreat

Mexican refugees with dirt bags rushed up again, and the surviving refugees were filled with hatred among their compatriots in the city, and the upper magnates and large haciendas sent troops to guard the city gates, preventing the refugees from pouring in to find a way out.

Refugees don't care if Mexico City is another hell or not, since you are unkind, then I am unjust, and I can help the invading army for a bite to eat.

These Mexican refugees were much more realistic than the Shunmin of the Qing Dynasty, and at least they knew how to ask for food.

Ten years later, the Eight-Nation Coalition Army entered Beiping, and the common people along the way carried their burdens and pushed carts to send the invading army to fight Beiping, which was really rare for eternity.

From start to finish

It was all two Mexican servant divisions organizing the refugees to fill in the trenches and build mountains, the Chinese army of the Tang Kingdom was supervising the battle from afar, and all the people fighting on the front line were Mexicans.

The refugees who were killed by the Mexican defenders and fell to the ground were not dragged out, but directly dumped the soil and buried them directly in the mound.

Seeing that something was wrong, the Mexican defenders transferred dozens of artillery pieces from all over the country and began to fire wildly at the Mexican refugees.

Seeing this scene, Li Cha waved his hand, and more than 100 artillery pieces of the siege troops of the Tang Kingdom were put down in formation, aiming at the enemy army at the head of the city for a burst of fierce fire, and the Mexican defenders on the head of the city turned over on their backs, and the remains of the corpses were thrown into the air by the air waves, and fell down heavily.

The new Colt breech loading gun of the Tang Kingdom has a firing range of up to 1.8 kilometers, which is not half a star compared to the Mexican artillery with a general range of only eight or nine hundred meters or 1.2 kilometers.

The key is that the range is long, and it can be aimed at the Mexican defenders at the head of the city from a safe distance, and cover the refugees to pile up the dirt hill to a height of more than ten meters.

On the fifth day, the Mexican servants, driven by tens of thousands of Mexican refugees armed with knives and guns, attacked the city, and then flooded into the city.

August 22, 1851

On the 20th day of the Tang Kingdom's king Richard leading his army south, he captured Mexico City, and 100,000 refugees followed the army into Mexico City, and the city was full of shouts and cries, like the end of the world.

The chaos lasted for two weeks, when President Santayo was captured alive and led by a group of captured Mexican leaders, who conceded defeat and signed the humiliating Treaty of Mexico.

The Treaty of Mexico consists of 21 articles, the main content of which is 5;

First, Mexico admitted defeat and solemnly apologized to the Tang Kingdom in the name of the government, that is, knelt.

Secondly, the Mexican Government agreed to cede the eight northern and central states as war reparations as a sign of the greatest sincerity for peace.

Third, the people of the Tang Kingdom are given key protection in doing business and buying real estate in Mexico, and they have consular jurisdiction, and the local government has no right to interfere.

Fourth, the northern part of Mexico City is designated as a concession, and the Tang Kingdom has the right to send no more than 2,000 police gendarmes to maintain security and stability in the concession.

Fifth, the Tang Kingdom paid 1.2 million Tang Yuan for the northern and central Bazhou, which was paid in three years without interest.

After the signing of the "Mexican Treaty", after staying for more than a month, Richard led a group of attachés to take the lead in returning to the Maple Leaf Palace in Chang'an.

Following the capture of Mexico City by the Tang Kingdom, the two servant divisions were disbanded on the spot, and turned into the new support of the pro-Tang Kingdom government's Mexican government army, and its power infiltrated the police agencies up and down Mexico City.

A flamenco division commander became the interior minister of the Mexican government, amassed a fortune during the turmoil in Mexico City, and became one of the powerful factions of the new government through the armed forces under his control.

Another division commander, Dos Santos, became the commander-in-chief of the Mexican government's army, quickly expanding his force to more than 40,000 troops by recruiting refugees and infiltrating the police to take control of Mexico City's powerful division.

The two white gloves cultivated by the Tang kingdom became the real power figures in Mexico City, and during the two-week turmoil in Mexico City, hundreds of thousands of refugees poured into the city, and during those turbulent and bloody years, many refugees broke into civilian homes with knives and guns, and instead had a huge impact on the original structure of Mexico City's residents.

Under the joint efforts of the commander of the Mexican Army, General Dos Santos, and Minister Flamingo, the emergency government of Mexico passed the National Reconciliation Act, which pardoned the rioters who broke into their homes and granted them legal status.

The "National Reconciliation Law" temporarily covered up the bloody turmoil that Mexico City had experienced, covered up the tens of thousands of robberies and murders, and covered up the crimes of the past, prompting the rapid stabilization of Mexico's largest city.

However, there are endless troubles, which will be manifested one by one in the future development.

As outsiders, the commander of the Mexican Army, General dos Santos, and Minister Flamingo pushed for the passage of the National Reconciliation Law, which won the full support of more than 40% of the residents of Mexico City, and truly gained a foothold and won the greatest benefits.

What really made these two outsiders take root in Mexico City and become the real power figures of the country was the funds given by the Tang Kingdom, in accordance with the provisions of the "Mexico Contract";

From now on, the Tang Kingdom should pay a total of 1,200,000 Tang Yuan for three consecutive years as compensation for a total of 1,007,500 square kilometers of land in the eight northern and central states of Mexico.

The money, which was converted into a large amount of food and supplies, was successively sent to the Mexican government, that is, the area controlled by the commander of the Mexican army, Admiral Dos Santos, and shared between him and Minister Flamingo.

Other high-level Mexican government officials basically don't see the slightest smell of oil.

These massive material supports, Admiral dos Santos and Minister Flamingo, have won the support of most residents in Mexico City, and have also helped the Mexican government to rush to harvest and restore agricultural and animal husbandry production.

Mexico City's affluent northern district, originally a military-occupied area, has now carved out a large concession that has been home to thousands of Chinese merchants, 2,000 Chinese garrisons and their families, and a large number of wealthy local families and estate owners in Mexico City, making it the least affected area by the war.

In this concession, the Mexican military and police have no right to enter, and the police station under the Lend-Lease Administration maintains law and order, and the Chinese garrison guarantees its independent status.

Mexico City, once the largest, most populous and most prosperous city in North America, has lost its influence after the catastrophe, and as Mexico's largest city, it still has a decisive influence in the country.

However, these are not things that the Tang Kingdom has to consider.

After two years of the Tang-Mo War, the Tang Kingdom ceded eight northern and central states from Mexico, covering a vast territory of 100.75 square kilometers and adding eight provinces.

This includes the provinces of Chihuahua, Durango, Sinaloa, Coavena, Sonora, Zacatecas, Tepic and Jinling, which have been converted from eight states to eight provinces.

So

The Tang Kingdom expanded from 14 provinces to 22 provinces, plus two overseas provinces, Hawaii and Panama, for a total of 24 provincial-level administrative regions.

The total area of the Tang Kingdom increased from 4.49 million square kilometers to 5.593 million square kilometers (note, the increase includes 17,500 square kilometers in Hawaii Province and 75,500 square kilometers in Panama Province), second only to Brazil and the United States, and is the third largest country in the Americas (including North and South America and Central America).

With 8.51 million square kilometers of land, Brazil is the largest country in the Americas.

The territory of the Tang Kingdom is slightly smaller than the 5.99 million square kilometers of land of the United States (Note; With the 678,000 square kilometers of Texas territory, the U.S. territory is 5.73 million square kilometers, and the 260,000 square kilometers of land ceded by Mexico, Dejuana and Monterrey, for a total of 5.99 million square kilometers, is in third place.

At this point, the situation in North America has changed from the three heroes to the situation of two powers, and Mexico is completely out.

In just six years, after two large-scale wars that affected the whole country, Mexico, with a population of more than 6 million, was repeatedly hit hard, the population size was reduced by more than half, and the total land area also shrank to 730,000 square kilometers.

With the defeat of foreign wars, the domestic contradictions in Mexico became more and more acute, and the former Mexican government finance minister Rodriguez and the former commander-in-chief of the Mexican government army, General Leto, two powerful figures, relied on the traditional large estate owners in the south to resurge.

Not satisfied with the replacement of their rights by new forces, they rearmed themselves under the intervention of foreign forces led by the United States, and initiated separatism and restoration in the southern states.
