The Tang Empire's vigorous intervention in the Paraguayan War expanded this inter-regional war into a South American war, which attracted the attention of the world.

After the victory in the Battle of the Binonite Valley with a thunderous blow, more than 32,000 of its legions made multiple assaults in two weeks, rapidly expanded, and firmly controlled the two northern provinces of Colombia del Estero and Santa Fe.

This stormy military operation plunged Brazil, Argentina and Paraguay into panic and confusion.

But the subsequent actions made them scratch their heads. After relieving Paraguay's imminent crisis of demise, the Tang Empire was heavily garrisoned in towns and villages in Santa Fe province off Paraguay's southern border.

For more than a month after that, the Paraguayan army, which did not cross the border to reinforce the Paraguayan army, which was in dire need of support, seemed to be stationed with peace of mind.

In the border camp, relying on the original construction of Argentina's original towns, the marching camp, neat tents are densely arranged outside the town, the flags are hunted and displayed, and the soldiers come and go in an endless stream, a scene of military prosperity.

In a Catholic church in the town, it was set up as the headquarters of the Legion. The officers in the headquarters were busy with their own work, some copying military orders, some sorting out and mobilizing material plans, and some were busy relocating the troops who had just arrived, a busy scene.

Lieutenant Colonel Wu Erbao, commander of the 10th Division of the Volunteer Militia, came to the headquarters of the regiment and saw this busy scene.

The two cavalry regiments of the 10th Division were responsible for escorting a large number of Caucasian women and seized materials back this time, and on the return trip, they escorted more than 800 tons of grain, including 600 tons of black beans, the concentrate for war horses alone, and they arrived smoothly all the way.

During this escort mission, more than 3,730 white women and underage girls were intercepted when passing through Wujiabao Town, and almost every soldier of the 10th Division could be assigned a woman, and of course there were more officers.

In the end, there were definitely not so many women left in Wujiapu Town, because they had to share the profits with other Chinese armed pioneer groups that participated in the 10th Division, and those who were close could be sent back to the farm directly, and those who were far away could only stay in Wujiapu Town for the time being, and then distributed them when the war was over.

This was permissible, because it was a mercenary war, and most of the capture of the Volunteer 10th Division belonged to him.

In this way, the Governor's Mansion of Antis of the Tang Empire can save a lot of post-war reward costs, and there is no need to bear the pension of disabled soldiers

"Merit field", but there will not be many.

"Hey, Captain Gu, do you still recognize me? I am Commander Wu of the 10th Division. After turning around, Wu Erbao saw a familiar face and hurriedly walked over to say hello.

Captain Gu raised his head when he heard this, and after being stunned for a second or two, he immediately reacted, immediately straightened his legs, saluted, and said;

"Please forgive me for being clumsy, sir!"

"Huh...... Last time I had a meeting at the corps headquarters, did you make tea for a few of our division commanders, do you remember it now? ”

"Come to remember, Your Excellency, may I ask what I can do for you?"

"Huh...... Don't be restrained, our division has completed the escort mission, has just returned to the camp, and is preparing to report to the commander? You know ......."

"Understood, then I have to ask Master Wu to wait for a while, the Governor is talking to the commander, and only when it is over, can he go in and report it." Diaphragm

"Oh...... That's not in a hurry, that's not in a hurry, I'll just wait for a while. Wu Erbao replied with a kind smile on his face.

He didn't expect the Governor to also arrive at the front line, and combined with what he saw and heard when the escort returned, it seemed that the news was true.

So he took a step closer and asked in a low voice;

"I escorted them back this time, and I heard the news that they were going to start building the northern extension of the Central Railway from us all the way north to Paraguay, is this news true?"

"Yes, sir, it's going to be announced soon, and the legion command basically knows about it. The northern extension of the Central Railway, which was planned to be extended north to the capital of Paraguay, was mainly the use of captive labor. With so many captives in their hands, you can't let them eat dry all the time, can you? Captain Gu only hesitated for a moment, and then explained the facts.

With Wu Shizuo's position in the army, the notification of similar information is not considered a leak, and it is one of the contents of the military intelligence report sent to senior officers.

If you talk about it in advance, you can also gain the favor of the other party. Wu Erbao is a pair

"Sure enough," he suddenly realized, smiled and nodded and said;

"I should have thought that the Legion Department had such a move, and the territory that my Tang Empire had fought down had never been justified in giving up. The construction of a railway line to the north to Yasenson can completely solve the problem of logistics and transportation of our army, which is of great significance! Captain Gu stood aside and laughed but it was not easy to talk, with his current humble military position, it was not good to stand here and evaluate the decision-making of the Corps Department, what would it look like?

Wu Erbao didn't embarrass the captain, and after the other party respectfully made a cup of tea and handed it over, he sat down leisurely and waited for the commander of the corps to summon him.

As far as he knew; There are three main reasons why the Corps is stationed outside the southern border of Paraguay: one is the lack of troops, the second is that the logistics cannot keep up, and the third is that the Andean Governor's Office has asked Paraguayan President Andes López to resign.

This last condition caused a strong backlash from Paraguayan President Andrés López, who strongly stated that he would never resign, but would lead the Paraguayan people to fight to the end.

Although Master Wu Erbao was able to guess the intentions of some of the Governor's Mansions, he was not sure in his heart.

Come in his mind; First of all, Paraguayan President López, as the main culprit who provoked the war, was inevitably widely criticized in the post-war negotiations, and was one of the weaknesses of the empire.

Second, the Governor's Office, for its part, does not like such a power-hungry president, nor does it want to brand the victory of the reversal war as President López's political capital for his long-term rule in Paraguay, which is undoubtedly making a wedding dress for others.

This kind of loss and stupidity has never been done by the Tang Empire. Thirdly, the Viceroyalty had to replace itself in this position in order to take control of Paraguay after the war.

Not to mention, Wu Erbao's private considerations basically fit the intentions of the Governor's Palace, and he guessed that he was very close.

The battlefield situation also reflected this, in the early days of the Tang Empire, the vigorous march into northern Argentina, and the rapid occupation of Colombia del Estero and Santa Fe provinces of the two northern provinces, like a hurricane, swept through the enemy's territory, really frightened the Triple Alliance.

After capturing the fortress of Umaita after a bloody battle, the 110,000-strong army led by the Allied commander Duke Marquis de Casias took a few days of rest, and then sent an advanced army of more than 30,000 men to the Paraguayan capital of Aconón, and the rest prepared to follow.

At this time, the battle of the Benonite Valley was the battle of the Benone Valley, and the 42,000 Argentine army was struck by the imperial thunder, and the news came that the army was defeated and fled, and then the cavalry of the Tang Empire swept through the two northern provinces of Argentina, as if entering a no-man's land.

The Imperial cavalry killed people everywhere, set fires, plundered villages and towns, and wiped out these two northern provinces in just over two weeks.

The Triple Alliance was so frightened that they shrank back and began to fully mobilize to repair the Umaita Fortress, preparing to rely on the strong fortress to fight the fierce cavalry of the Tang Empire to the end.

During this period, Duke Marques de Casias sent five urgent military reports to the country, asking for artillery, supplies, and troops, and preparing to rely on the fortress of Umaita to fight the Tang Empire to the end.

Who would have thought that the troops of the Tang Empire would be stationed in towns outside the southern border of Paraguay and not cross the thunder pond for a long time, which made the allies feel very surprised.

Duke Marcis de Casias tentatively sent a forward army of 30,000 men, but on the way to Acençon, they were stubbornly resisted by the remnants of the Paraguayan army hiding in the mountains, and the two sides were torn apart.

After four days of fighting, the remnants of the Paraguayan army showed great tenacity, fighting back against the invading Allied forces.

What is strange is that not a single soldier of the Tang Empire has never appeared. At this time, reliable news came from Ascension; It turned out that the Tang Empire was dissatisfied with President Peres' unauthorized provocation of regional wars, and asked him to take the blame and resign before sending troops, otherwise he could only speak

"Sorry". Duke Marques de Casias was overjoyed to hear the news, and immediately threw in heavy troops to press it down, crushing the remnants of the Paraguayan army hiding in the dense forest, and leading the army into Ascension with his head held high.

Now, the capital of Paraguay, Yacençon, has fallen for 11 days. Enraged Allies invaded a South American city with a population of less than 200,000, causing disaster in the city of Ascension, killing all the men, even boys as young as eight or nine years old.

The streets were littered with corpses, and the women in the room were groaning in pain to the wild laughter of the conquistadors, and it was an hour of unprecedented darkness in the country of Paraguay.

Black smoke birds can be seen everywhere in the city, the clear waters of the Paraná River are dyed red, and a large number of corpses float down the river.

Ascension groaned in pain, tormented by the flames of war...... But who is to blame for all this? Paraguayan President Perez has a wishful thinking in his heart, on the one hand, he expects the Tang Empire to send troops to rescue Paraguay from danger, and on the other hand, he refuses to leave the presidency, and finds various reasons to shirk it...... How did this little trick escape the eyes of the Andean Governor's Palace?

I am not your father, there is no reason to get used to you, and there is no reason to help you defeat strong enemies and restore your former glory.

From this point alone, it can be seen that López Jr. is an extremely selfish person, and he is reluctant to give up his presidential rights even if he dies.

As a result of the bickering between the two sides, the people of Paraguay, in the capital, Ascension, have suffered unprecedented hardship and have been tormented day and night in the flames of war.
