Rebirth of South America as King

既然 "Now that everyone has reached a consensus on the repatriation of the rebel militants, this matter will be left to Marshal Garcia and General Ebel."

Queen Isabella sat on the main seat and set the final decision on the repatriation of the blacks. Then she turned her attention to the royal in-laws sitting in the front row, the commander-in-chief of the Navy: "Count Deu, next One thing is important for the Imperial Navy. Let me introduce it to you. "

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Count D'ou stood up and said: "In 1879, in the early years of the North-South split, the area controlled by the imperial government included nine states along the north-central coast. After the British intervened in the civil war, the rebels took Bahia from the imperial army. In the southern part of the state, since then, the confrontation between the Empire and the rebel rebels has lined from Bahia, Minas Gerais, and back to Tiniare Island, Valenza, and Sierra Grande. Because of the reduction in the area of ​​actual control and the reversal of the line of confrontation between the north and the south, the temporary capital of the empire, Saldowa, has always faced the threat of the Republican rebel army. "

Count Dewu simply described the situation facing the Brazilian empire after the North-South split. No obvious emotional changes were seen on his face: "From 1879 to 1883, the Imperial Navy inherited the main naval strength of His Majesty Pedro II, Therefore, in the face of the onshore military pressure of the rebellious government, the balance of the frontline armed forces can be maintained by virtue of the navy.

However, since 1883, the situation has changed radically. As the Republican rebel group advanced from the United Kingdom to return to South America, the imperial navy's original maritime advantages were quickly offset, and the southern rebel group's influence on the Empire's homeland, especially The direct threat from the frontline to the squadron's imperial capital, Saldovia, is growing. ......... "

"El Salvador is the most important central city in the north-central region. If the central government agencies of the empire are relocated due to military threats from the southern Republican group, I am afraid that it will cause panic and unpredictable political turmoil among ordinary subjects within the empire-controlled area."

After hearing the words of Count Dewu, intuitively realized that the frontline army and navy's military forces were imbalanced, resulting in a synergy effect, Duke Frobert immediately felt the seriousness of the matter.

"Moving the capital and relocating the imperial central government is the last step. You cannot take this step until the front line of confrontation collapses to irreparable circumstances."

Duke Frobert thought for a moment, and said, "Apart from moving the capital, does the Count have other solutions?"

"Yes, Prime Minister Robert Frobert."

Count Dewu gave an affirmative reply to Duke Frobert, explaining: "According to the intelligence analysis returned by the European side (mainly the Portuguese royal family) and some Southern Navy officers who leaned towards the imperial government, the Southern Republican Navy currently has three A 5000-ton armored cruiser ordered from the United Kingdom, a 4,000-ton medium-sized cruiser that is about to be constructed, three old iron armored ships with a rank of about 2,000-ton, and more than ten small coastal defense gunships, with a total tonnage of 2.4 Navy fleet between 10,000 to 28,000 tons.

Compared with the Imperial Navy, the Navy's sub-fleets have a total of 31 ships of various types, with a total tonnage of 25,000 tons. In terms of the total naval tonnage, the Imperial Navy and the navy forces controlled by the Southern Rebel Group are at the same level.

However, in terms of actual maritime operations, most of the naval forces owned by the Southern Republican Group are newly purchased advanced armored battleships, while the main battleships of the Imperial Navy are old iron armored ships inherited from Her Majesty Pedro's period. The maritime conflict makes it difficult for the Imperial Navy to assume the responsibilities of defending the maritime security of the Empire and assisting the Imperial Army in defending its homeland.

In order to offset the maritime military pressure of the Southern Republican Group on the empire, there are two main ways to deal with it.

The first is to resume the naval ship purchase plan and seek to purchase advanced warships from European countries such as Britain, France, or Germany, and then gradually reverse the problem of the imbalance between the strength of the navy between the north and the south.

Twenty-two is to step out of the naval arms race and attack the Republican Group in other political, economic, and military aspects from other aspects, weaken the overall military force of the Southern Republic Group, and earn time for the imperial government to restore its economy and develop military forces. "

"The Empire ’s homeland rebellion war is over. When the repatriation of black people is completed and the potential risk of rebellion in the Empire ’s homeland disappears, then some of the financial funds used for the counterinsurance funds may be transferred to the purchase of new warships.”

Following the words of Count Dewu, Marshal Garcia expressed his opinion.

Although Marshal Garcia was born in the Brazilian Army, his rank and position reached his rank. The scope of consideration is not limited to the Army. The Army is the main force against the Southern Republican Group, and the Navy is also indispensable against the Southern Republican Group Therefore, in the face of the overall situation, it is also appropriate to transfer some of the benefits to the development of the navy.

"In the next two years, the imperial government can squeeze a total of 350,000 pounds of foreign exchange funds (equivalent to 1.25 million Kupin silver) to order an armored cruiser of about 5,000 tons."

After listening to the introduction of Count Dewu, Duke Frobert knew that the 5000-ton armored cruiser Aquitaban ordered by the Southern Republican Government in 1885 had a subscription price of 345,000 tons, so based on the offer of the Aquitaban, add more It was £ 5,000.

"Bahia is the area where the rebellion is most thoroughly conducted in the Empire-controlled area. Because Bahia borders the area controlled by the Southern Republican Rebel Group, in the last seven or eight years, there have been more than 100,000 pairs of Republican groups. Whites dissatisfied with the administrative measures crossed the border and entered the northern and central areas of the state of Bahia controlled by the imperial government. If the decision to move the capital is made due to naval reasons, the favorable conditions obtained by the counterinsurgency war will be completely lost. For Bahia's more than 100,000 subjects who follow Her Majesty, no compromise or concession can be made. "

The repatriation of black people is a top priority for Ebel. As the core of the Brazilian empire's current rule, the number of white people in the central and northern regions of Bahia has reached 140,000, and its population has increased to 32% of the total population. And with the relocation and repatriation of blacks involved in the rebellion in the jurisdiction, and the continued influx of white populations in the south, the percentage of whites in the northern and central areas of Bahia controlled by the Brazilian Empire is likely to increase to 10% in the next five years. 50.

In order to carry out the plan of repatriating the black people smoothly, Ebel, following Marshal Garcia's perspective, also agreed to a certain degree of fiscal funding to the navy and a plan to order new warships.

It is the common interest of everyone to respond to the threat of the Southern Republican government and defend the Brazilian empire. Therefore, ordering new warships to partially offset the military superiority of the Southern Navy has become a consensus.

"The core area of ​​the Empire ’s territory is occupied by the Southern Rebel Group, and relying on the fiscal revenue of eight and a half states in the northern and central coastal regions to conduct a naval arms race with the Southern Republican government is not good for the Imperial government. Therefore, it is taking part of its financial funds to try to develop the Empire. At the same time, the navy's military power, combined with external forces, to contain and disperse the military power of the Southern Republican Government, is an aspect that the imperial government must pay attention to now. "

Ignoring the specifics of ordering new warships, Count D'Uu focused on combining external forces and countering the threat of the Brazilian Republican government: "Since the empire's north-south split, the situation in South America has changed substantially. Although Lopez Jr. of Paraguay occupied the Mato Grosso do Sul and Goias states through the opportunity of the Brazilian Republican government ’s military vacancy, Paraguay ’s internal turmoil, coupled with the serious illness of Lopez Jr. Gradually, the control of the government has gradually decreased. Even if the imperial government abandons its previous grudges and takes the initiative to unite with Paraguay, it will not achieve the purpose of effectively containing the Southern Republican government.

In addition to Paraguay, Peru and Bolivia suffered the effects of the guano war, and internally divided armed forces were also incapable of sharing military pressure for the imperial government.

Excluding Paraguay, Peru, and Bolivia, the Han country, which was once hostile to the imperial government, ranks first in South America in terms of population and military strength, and is currently the only country capable of suppressing and threatening the Republican government of the South with force.

On the other side, the comprehensive national strength of Han is far more than that of South American countries. Cooperation with Han will help alleviate military pressure from the Southern Republican Group. However, in the future, Han ’s strength may further increase, which will bring greater power to the imperial government. Military and political pressure. "

After receiving the intention of cooperation from the Han side through Silva, Count Dewu was emotionally unwilling to agree to the fact that he would cooperate with the enemy in the past, but faced the military threat of the Southern Republican Group, before the test of personal interests and the survival of the entire Brazilian empire, Count Dewu finally presented the cooperation plan of Silva at the meeting.

"There are risks and benefits to cooperating with Han. Before today ’s meeting, the Han government sent a private message to reach an agreement with the imperial government to deal with the military threat of the Southern Republican government, but the cooperation is too important. I have to After knowing the news, I didn't dare to conceal it. After obtaining the permission of Her Majesty, I took the opportunity of this meeting to present it to you. I hope that after discussions, you can make a proper decision. "

东方 "The Orientals are too greedy for the land. Their emperors always look at the land in the north and cooperate with the Han country. The risks they face in the future are too great.

However, if the olive branch extended by the Han country is rejected, and the strength of the Empire on the one hand is against the Southern Republican government supported by Britain, I am afraid that the Imperial Government has not seen the crisis of the Han country in the future and will fall to the Southern Republican government. Under military pressure with the United Kingdom. "

The strength of the Han Dynasty's army and the emperor's greed for the land, after several wars, have been known to a lot of high-level people in the Brazilian Empire, but even knowing that cooperation with the Han country means that the Han country has the opportunity to strengthen its strength,

However, a group of high-ranking Brazilian empires, in the face of imminent threats, still chose the decision that is best for them.

As it is pointed to the essence, there will be individuals who betray the class, but there will be no class betrayed.

The interests of the nobles and generals in the palace depend on the empire that the Brazilian empire and the empire depend on. If the Brazilian empire is gone, their benefits will also be lost. Compared to the possible future threats of the South American Han country, the current class is defended. The interests are trivial and it is not difficult to make a choice.

In a word from Ebel, the need for cooperation with the South American and Han nations was stated, and the next good news, revealed by Count Dewu, www.wuxiaspot.com, prompted the hesitant people to make a positive decision. .

Count Dewu was the commander of the Brazilian Empire ’s navy. While managing the naval fleet affairs of the Brazilian Empire, he also through the relationship left by Pedro II, with the Southern Republican government navy, some of the senior generals leaning towards the monarchy. Keep a close relationship,

Earl Dudau roughly told his secrets to share with everyone, and revealed that in the future, he would use the opportunity of the Han Dynasty and the Republican Government to break out of the war to instigate the Southern Republican Navy fleet's plan anyway.

According to Count Dewu's plan, if the operation goes well, some Southern Republican government naval vessels will be able to work effectively. Not only can the strength of the Brazilian Imperial Navy be enhanced, but it can also be used as a breakthrough to combat the governing foundation of the Southern Republican government. The reunification of the Brazilian Empire creates favorable conditions.

After the meeting, officials within the Brazilian empire were busy again,

Ebel is responsible for the repatriation of black rebels,

Earl Dudau was responsible for purchasing advanced warships, forging contacts and countering naval officers of the Southern Republican government,

Meanwhile, the Duke of Frobert and officials of various cabinet departments were busy on the one hand in raising financial funds and on the other hand in carrying out internal clean-up plans to suppress the remaining dissidents within the empire on a large scale. (Including Republicans and black insurgents hostile to the Brazilian Empire.) ...
