Completely drive the power of the British out of the Indian Ocean!

Whether it was Zhang Bao or Chen Huacheng, he took a deep breath.

They know.

The British would certainly not have imagined that at this time in North America it was almost turned into a powder keg.

The Emperor of the Ming Empire will take the initiative to detonate another powder keg.

So when people's eyes are on North America.

Fighting in the Indian Ocean.

Fear. will cause a real world war!!

"If the British lose the Indian Ocean or even South Africa, they . will be completely tied to Napoleon's chariot. ”

On the deck of the Zhenwu.

The crown prince Zhu Yichi and the king of Jin, Zhu Yimi, stood at the bow of the ship, and the huge ship under their feet ploughed the sea all the way to the west.

"That's what the old man was going to do, and he wanted the Europeans to send people to North America as much as possible."

"Why?"

Zhu Yimian was puzzled.

"In that case, don't they have more power in North America?"

Zhu Yichi smiled: "Third child, when have you ever seen an old man do something that he is not sure of?" He is sure that he will do this! ”

"If this war can cause all the countries of Europe to lose at least one generation of men! My position as the overlord of China is completely stable! ”

"Let the Europeans lose a generation?"

Zhu Yi milled.

"Fighting, we are not afraid! Now it's up to the British to see if they're afraid! If they want revenge, come. ”

Zhu Yichi held the side of the boat and said.

This was later called the prelude to the "East-West World War".

The main battlefield is on the American continent though.

But it is generally believed that the beginning of this great war began with the Ming Empire's attack on British naval bases in the Indian Ocean.

But.

In the Hereafter.

There are also those who think.

The real beginnings of this world war.

In fact, it had already begun before the Ming Empire's navy moved south.

Because at this time.

in Mexico.

The anger of the Mexicans has spread throughout New Spain.

These Mexican peasants, who were Catholic and of Spanish and Indian descent, revolted against the Spanish policy of strict agricultural taxes.

The Kingdom of Spain has weakened.

They have been living comfortably on the gold of America for more than 300 years.

And now.

They're about to go to their largest colony.

The smoke of the rebels is not confined to Mexico.

In Panama, in Argentina, in Peru, in Chile.

Almost in a very short period of time.

The rule of the Kingdom of Spain in the American colonies was on the verge of collapse.

'Damn it! Damn the Americans! ’

Inside Mexico City.

The Viceroy of New Spain, Francisco Xavier Venegas, is swearing in his office!

From March of this year.

The armament of the Indian rebels, led by Miguel Hidalgo i Costilla and Morelos, was upgraded.

They started with a peasant army armed with steel forks and farm tools.

Turned into a regular army armed with cannons and rear-mounted pin guns!

This led to very serious consequences: the army of the Viceroyalty of New Spain lost its superiority in weapons in the face of these rebels.

even

In terms of the advanced nature of weapons, it is still at a disadvantage!

Francisco was clear.

Where did these rebel weapons come from.

"Governor! The rebels have already appeared outside the city! ”

A panicked voice sounded outside the door.

Gutiérrez, commander of the garrison of the Viceroyalty of New Spain, rushed in in panic.

Right now.

The Kingdom of Spain was no longer able to send large armies from its own territory to suppress the rebellion.

And the Viceroyalty of New Spain did not have enough troops to deal with the armies of Miguel and Morelos – the rebels were too widely supported.

In fact.

It's not just Indians.

The native whites of Mexico, many of the local farmers, are supporters of the rebels!

Encouraged by the independence of the United States.

The Spanish colonies in the Americas began independence movements on various scales more than a decade ago.

But there was a huge gap in equipment between the rebel army and the Spanish army.

Let Spain still stabilize the situation.

And yet now.

But when the rebels, wielding weapons more advanced than the Spanish army, poured towards Mexico City.

Francisco was desperate.

The Americans intervened in this war!

Obviously.

The Americans supported the rebel army in Mexico.

"These bitches! These Indian half-breed garbage who should go to hell! Do they think the Americans are genuinely supporting them? Do they think that they don't have to pay for getting weapons from the Americans, wait and see! They will die at gunpoint of the Chinese later! ”

Francisco slumped in his chair.

"Governor, we must leave."

"Leave?" Francisco looked up, "Are you saying Spain is leaving the Americas?" ”

"This."

"Long live Mexico!!"

"Long live the independence of Mexico!!"

"Wealth belongs to the people! The land belongs to the people!! ”

"Abolish church privileges!"

"Confiscation of church land!!"

"God is not equal to the Church!!"

"We don't need a king!!"

"Long live the Republic of Mexico!!"

Outside Mexico City.

Rebel soldiers chanted slogans.

Miguel and Morelos.

The two rebel leaders, who would later be revered as the "Father of the Nation" by Mexico, also had excited smiles on their faces.

They didn't expect that.

The cause they used to fight for.

There will be a sudden turnaround!

The invasion of the Chinese, so that they have the support of the United States!!

Mexican independence.

It's really possible!

The territory of the Viceroyalty of New Spain was huge.

The newly formed Mexican Republic.

It will be a large country with a population of more than 30 million and a land area of more than 6 million square kilometers!

is the largest republic in the world!!

"We're going to make it! Dear Miguel. ”

Morelos said excitedly.

"yes, we're going to make it!"

Miguel smiled.

"But we're going to face pressure from the Chinese soon."

Morelos took a deep breath.

"This piece of land is ours! We will never give up the land to the Chinese! ”

If the rebel army occupied the entire Viceroyalty of New Spain.

The current Mexico is much bigger than the Mexico of the future.

From Panama to Texas, New Mexico and other places in the United States, it is the land of this nascent Mexican Republic!

"Tell the soldiers that this will be the most critical battle, that the Spaniards took the land of our ancestors three hundred years ago, and that now we will do our best to take it back!"

Miguel said loudly.

Soon.

Throughout the camp of the Mexican rebels, deafening cheers were remembered.

"Long live independence!"

"Destroy the Spanish bandits!!"

In the midst of this cheer.

The artillery pours tongues of fire and rains down on Mexico City! (End of chapter)
