On March 30, 1856, the Treaty of Paris was officially signed, and as one of the victorious powers, Count Juan Carlos, the foreign minister of the Tang Kingdom, attended the signing ceremony, and his face was full of confident smiles.

The Treaty of Paris was the most humiliating defeat treaty signed by the Tsarist Empire in the past 100 years, and it was full of things that Russia had to do and what Russia had to cede and withdraw from, and even lost the name of the protectorate of the Orthodox Church.

The only gain was that the Russians finally retained sovereignty over the Crimean peninsula, leaving behind a bridgehead territory that stretched out into the Black Sea.

Under the strong pressure of Britain, being able to keep this bottom line was the only achievement achieved by the diplomatic representatives of Tsarist Russia, and it was naturally indispensable to help France and the Tang Kingdom in the negotiations.

France aside, the Tang Kingdom is not a good person, and naturally has its own interests.

Although it was not reflected in the "Paris Treaty", in the exchange of private conditions, the Tang Kingdom received a lot of benefits from Tsarist Russia.

First of all, in the field of trade, the Tang Kingdom's kerosene, cotton, steel and canned food products will be imported into the interior of Tsarist Russia through the Black Sea Crimean port and the Baltic Sea coastal port of Lithuania, and the two sides will sign the "Russian-Tangren Bilateral Trade Agreement" in this regard.

The specific conditions still need to be discussed, but basically on the basis of equality and mutual benefit, preferential tariff treatment will be granted, and this is a matter that has been discussed in advance.

Second, Russia provides convenience and non-discriminatory treatment to businessmen, students and workers with Tang nationality in the Far East, and the Kingdom of Datang provides the same convenience to Russian nationals, further deepening bilateral cooperation.

Third, Russia and Tang will explore the establishment of a joint venture to establish a railway from Crimea to Kiev, and will gradually set up a franchise company to invest in the railway in the form of a joint venture company, with the Tang Kingdom investing in capital and imported rails, and the Russian side investing in labor, land, and concessions, each accounting for a certain proportion of shares.

After suffering the most painful defeat in nearly 200 years, its prestige plummeted, its westward expansion strategy was heavily shackled, and even lost the important territorial rights and interests in Europe obtained during Catherine the Great.

At this time, the European royal families were full of laughter, the harsh ridicule of public opinion became the mainstream voice, the betrayal of Austria-Hungary and Prussia, which concluded the Holy Alliance, the corpses on the great plain of Ukraine, and the soaring domestic prices in Tsarist Russia, the boiling of public resentment, and the brink of economic collapse, all of which deeply stabbed the arrogant Russian woolly bear.

At this time, the goodwill shown by the Tang Kingdom is particularly precious.

After the end of the war

Since May, the officers and soldiers of the Tang Kingdom Expeditionary Force stationed in Sevastopol, Crimea, the Black Sea coastal city of Odessa and surrounding towns have begun to pack their bags one after another and take their women and children on the return cruise ship.

The military has embodied a humane arrangement, with each soldier being allowed to return by boat with one passenger, and children under the age of two can accompany them, at the military's expense.

The excess part shall be paid by the officers and men themselves.

This superfluous sentence is not an ornament, many officers and soldiers have more than one woman and more than one child in Ukraine, and they want to bring it at their own expense.

The principle of doing things should be fair and just, and not let honest people suffer.

According to the regulations of the shipping company; Pregnant women are not allowed to take transoceanic cruises, so as not to cause one corpse and two deaths.

This may seem like a cold rule, but in fact it is reasonable, and the voyage across the Pacific Ocean to the Gulf of Mexico takes about 11 or 2 days, and even if the conditions of the cruise ship are better than that of the migrant ship, it cannot guarantee the safety of pregnant women.

Such a responsibility cannot be borne by the shipping company.

Compared with

It is not a big problem to carry young children with peers, the shipping company has special dietary arrangements for such passengers, generally with clear and nutritious fish fillet porridge, kelp preserved egg porridge, salted fish seaweed porridge with bread and cakes as the main food, according to the conditions with fruits, generally can ensure that the milk of pregnant women is sufficient.

After arriving at the port of La Antigua or the port of Medellín in the Gulf of Mexico, you can transfer to the newly opened railway to the west through Mexico City, and then turn north, only more than 400 kilometers to arrive at Jinling, the southernmost city of the Tang Kingdom.

The five fully manned field divisions of the expeditionary force returning from Europe will be deployed in the eight southern provinces of the Tang Kingdom, including the ports of La Antigua or Medellín, which are still part of Mexico, to strengthen local defenses.

Now in the fourth year of the Mexican Civil War, peace talks between the North and the South have begun, but the rebellious Republic of Azetek in the south still regularly crosses the border, and these two important port cities in the Gulf of Mexico are important targets.

As the owner and actual user of the railway, the Tang Kingdom certainly cannot ignore this.

January 17, 1856

After several rounds of consultations, the two sides concluded the "Tang-Mexico Jinling Friendship Treaty", which made institutional arrangements for the establishment of two port cities, La Antigua and Medellín, in terms of industry and commerce, immigration, the movement of people, and the garrison of troops along the Gulf Railway and port cities, and the opening up of the two port cities of La Antigua and Medellín.

Through this treaty, the Tang Kingdom had the right to garrison troops along the Mexican railway lines and port cities, and the right to open up and operate free port cities, further sending Chinese immigrants to the above-mentioned areas, and expanding its influence in the region.

The Mexican government, backed by the Tang Kingdom, which has a strong military, can break up most of the defense burden of the more than 700-kilometer-long states between the Gulf of Mexico and Mexico City, greatly reducing its own pressure.

Under the ravages of years of civil war

The population of the Mexican government, mainly in Mexico City, has plummeted to about 820,000 to 830,000, of which more than 600,000 are concentrated in Mexico City and surrounding towns, and the population of the other six states controlled by government forces combined is less than 200,000.

In the face of cross-border attacks by the southern Aztec Republic, mostly in the size of three to four thousand people, the local state government is often unable to cope with it.

This is not to say how strong the Southern Aztec Republic is, its control of the population size of about 130 ~ 1.34 million, with the support of foreign forces led by the United States and Colombia, because of religious and nationalist factors, morale is quite high, and it can often gain the upper hand in the rookie war in Mexico.

On January 17, after the two sides concluded the "Tang-Mo Jinling Friendship Treaty", the media of the southern Aztec Republic reacted violently, calling it a "humiliating traitorous treaty" that "demonstrated the wolf ambitions of the Tang Kingdom on Mexican territory" and "foreign governments colluded with pro-Tang forces to betray the interests of the Mexican nation."

There was also an uproar in the northern press of the United States, and the New York Daily News ran the news with a front-page headline that read;

"The Tang Kingdom started a new step in colonizing Mexico"

The report quoted the concerns of the top White House executives, and with all kinds of malicious speculation and pessimistic rhetoric, it showed a heartfelt concern for Mexico, like a good neighbor.

The United States of America has completely forgotten how it annexed the Texas, Dejuana, and Monterrey regions to which Mexico belongs, and for this reason it did not hesitate to launch the American-Mexican-Tang War and launch a naked invasion of Mexico.

It has only been seven years since the end of this war, and the United States has forgotten the crimes of aggression it once committed.

As a matter of fact

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, American expansionist rhetoric has always prevailed, and Mexico, the soft persimmon in the south, has always been regarded by the United States as its own meat, and it can eat a piece if it wants, and cut a piece when it wants.

Now that this plate has been taken away by the Tang Kingdom, and the United States is helpless, how can this huge gap not be sour?

The "Tang-Mo Jinling Friendship Treaty" not only greatly deepened the exchanges between the two countries, tied Mexico tightly to the chariot of the Tang Kingdom, but also stipulated the obligation of mutual defense.

This article is not only aimed at the Aztec Republic, but also against any foreign forces that invade Mexico, and the implication is that it includes the United States, a good neighbor to the north.

Living in the middle of the 19th century, in the wilderness of North America, Mexico was powerless to defend itself.

The two bullies, the Tang Kingdom and the United States, can bully her, defile her, and torture her in different ways at any time, while those European powers turn a blind eye and turn a deaf ear.

International justice and justice are shrouded in power, such as the Ottoman Empire, the Yin Lang Kingdom, the Manchu Dynasty, the Fuso Kingdom, Egypt, the Tugong Kingdoms of the Indian Subcontinent, and many historic feudal kingdoms, not to mention tiny Mexico.

The withdrawal of troops, which began in May, lasted for more than three months, and in the ports of Odessa and Sevastopol on the Black Sea coast, you can see crying people every day.

Many white women with big bellies and their families came to the port to bid farewell to the returning Chinese officers and soldiers, and agreed to meet in a few years.

And those women who were lucky enough to board the ship were full of joy, and between this joy and sorrow, countless joys and sorrows were deduced.

Many of the soldiers of the expeditionary force are refugees from the Shenzhou continent, who have nothing, and have been in Europe for more than two years, have women and children, and will try to bring them back as much as possible.

In the more than a year that has been stationed in the coastal regions of Ukraine, although there have been no major battles, there have been hundreds of small and medium-sized sweeps, encounters, and small and medium-sized battles for cities and towns.

Under the policy of acquiescing to looting on the part of the coalition forces, the Chinese soldiers of the expeditionary force have made some small fortunes, and correspondingly, large and small towns within more than 100 kilometers of the coastal areas of Ukraine have been looted and destroyed by war.

Now the war is over

In the envious eyes of the Chinese officers and men of the British Foreign Legion, the officers and men of the expedition took women and children and carried large bags of luggage to embark on the return cruise ship one after another, eagerly looking forward to the beginning of a new life.

The whereabouts of the Chinese officers and soldiers of the British Foreign Legion were much more complicated, some went to Moldova, and some went to the Caucasus to carry out quarantine and supervision tasks.

Most are still stationed in the fortress of Sevastopol, monitoring the performance of the Russian army, and the next step may be to return to the British mainland, or to Europe or Egypt to carry out missions.

Then again

No matter how many wives and concubines and children the Chinese officers and soldiers have, they are all responsible for transportation and placement, and the salaries they give are slightly higher than those of British soldiers, which can be said to be very good.

This is because the British Foreign Legion is actually a mercenary in nature, and it needs to carry out overseas garrison and field missions all year round, charging at the front line.
