Rebirth of South America as King

Chapter 67: Meet Colonel West

Thank you for stealing the dream space.

With the help of soldiers brought by Sun Bin, the ship's weapons and equipment were quickly moved to the open space in front of the port. The specific amount of weapons was accounted for by Sun Bin and Huffman, and Sweet was accompanied by Zhao Yan. Meet with Li Mingyuan.

The process of gathering Chinese in various places in Arequipa is still going on. On the road, a team of Chinese can be seen rushing to their respective stations under the leadership of their officers.

"Sir, are they your soldiers?" West, who came to the land, replaced a warhorse and pointed at the side by side Chinese team.

Zhao Yan left the team next to him, and smiled, "My Excellency, they are misunderstood. They are militiamen who are responsible for transporting logistics materials, not field forces."

After listening to Zhao Yan's words, West was a little unbelievable. If he looked closely at them, he found some clues. The soldiers in this team were older, mostly around 30 years old.

Moreover, their physical fitness is relatively low. Many people have thin, yellow, and sickly faces, but when they march, they have strict discipline, so West was mistaken for a regular army.

"The logistical force of your army has such a military appearance, and the regular army must be more exciting," West praised.

"His honor has been awarded, and Shizi's administration of the army is fair and rigorous. It is deeply loved by the soldiers, so the army has strict discipline."

听 "Listening to you, I would like to see your sons earlier." West laughed.

West has not seen the field army of the Chinese Independent Army, but from the performance of the logistics unit, the army ’s atmosphere and combat effectiveness will only be more rigorous and powerful.

He therefore increased his curiosity about Li Mingyuan, who led the army.

前往 In the process of going to Li Mingyuan's house, West has been carefully observing the truth and reality of the Chinese Independent Army, and in his heart has continued to improve his evaluation of the Chinese Independent Army.

West met Li Mingyuan more than just being curious about him. The Kingdom of Prussia just formed the North German Alliance.

之下 Under the increase of strength, we have also expanded our eyes to the world outside Europe, hoping to find a market for the expanding domestic industrial production.

Therefore, they suddenly received a huge arms order, which caused them to attach importance to this force. Therefore, West was given the task of investigating the Chinese Independence Army in order to determine their status.

明 Li Mingyuan temporarily resided in a compound in Baranga City. West and Zhao Yan went through the security hall and walked into the reception hall.

"Shizi, Colonel West comes to visit you." Zhao Yan introduced into the hall.

"Um," Li Mingyuan nodded, motioning to the soldiers to serve tea to entertain the guests. The two soldiers around him knew and left quickly.

"Hello Colonel West, we didn't meet last time, it's really a shame." Li Mingyuan said politely.

阁下 "Your Excellency is too surprising for me, I didn't expect you to be so young." West was surprised.

"The colonel is polite," Li Mingyuan nodded with a smile, and greeted West to sit down.

"I'm curious how Your Excellency turned a group of workers into a winning army in just two or three months. I don't know if your Excellency can help me." West sat down and asked. .

"No rush, the colonel will finish drinking this cup of tea first," Li Mingyuan winked at the guard, and then the guard brought in three cups of tea and placed them in front of the three of them.

"Colonel, this is the tea leaves from the tea tree transplanted from mainland China to Peru. I don't know if it suits the colonel's taste." After Ming drank a tea, Li Mingyuan asked.

Eastern tea has gradually become a pet of Western nobility since its introduction to Britain in the 16th century. Therefore, West is not ignorant of the taste of tea in the mouth.

"The tea is rich and sweet, and it is a rare good tea." West commented on the taste of the finished tea.

"Sir, you have finished drinking tea, should you answer my question?" A cup of tea was drunk soon, West asked.

"Coloster West listens to me slowly,"

明 Li Mingyuan took a sip of tea and said, "This kind of tea originated between the mountain peaks. Later, in order to increase the yield of tea, tea farmers transplanted the tea trees to the foot of the mountain, which caused the tea's aroma and flavor to be insufficient.

After the tea tree was transplanted to the top of the mountain in Peru, due to the harsh environment such as lack of water, the tea tree desperately absorbed the morning dew in the mountains, so the quality of the tea produced was restored to its original level. "

"Are these words related to the combat effectiveness of your army?" West said unconsciously.

Western culture is straightforward and straightforward, not as euphemistic as classical Chinese culture, so Li Mingyuan no longer goes around with him and explains.

"The Chinese people are like this tea tree. In mainland China, because they were accustomed to a long and peaceful life, they were slackened by military equipment, and they were invaded by the Yuan Qing. Therefore, they invaded the Central Plains. They are bloody, drive out captives, and win national independence. "

"I admire your patriotism, but I do not believe that the rule of the Qing Dynasty will be overthrown in a short time.

And a few years ago, a large-scale peasant uprising in your country was suppressed by the Qing Dynasty. The military strength of the Qing Dynasty should be in its heyday at this stage. "

Wei West understood the metaphor of Li Mingyuan, but he did not like what Li Mingyuan said about the independence of the Chinese.

Although the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom uprising hit the foundation of the Manchu dynasty, it did not overthrow the rule of the Manchu dynasty.

During the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom uprising, the Manchu dynasty resumed its practice of entering the customs, and every time it broke through a city, it plundered and slaughtered its residents. Therefore, after the war, the domestic population decreased by about 100 million, and the domestic contradictions were alleviated to a certain extent.

And this method is also a tried and tested method for ethnic minorities to rule China, killing the rebels and reducing the domestic population. Naturally, no one dares to resist in a short period of time. According to the Manchu ruling strategy, if there is no Western power invasion, maybe the Manchu dynasty It would be the feudal dynasty that ruled China the longest.

I remembered that the Manchu dynasty would rule China for about half a century. Li Mingyuan did not openly refute West ’s point of view, and instead turned the topic to the Chinese Independent Army.

"It's a fact that the Manchu dynasty survived a crisis, but I don't think its rule is unbreakable. Although the resistance forces in the Central Plains have been wiped out, there are still many unwilling Chinese in overseas regions. They have been Strive for the restoration of national glory. "

Li Mingyuan's words were powerful and infected West listening carefully.

"His words reminded me of my motherland. The great kingdom of Prussia experienced the aggression of the Napoleon Empire, the country was broken, the economy was in recession,

But in such a bad situation, all Prussian nationals are united,

The peasants and workers took out a small amount of savings to lend to the country to restore the economy. His Majesty William III personally donated a palace where he lived as a university campus.

几十 After decades of self-cultivation, the Kingdom of Prussia restored its vitality, defeated the Kingdom of Denmark, the Austrian Empire, won the leadership of the North German region, and achieved the status of a central European power. "

West said with emotion. Words reveal confidence and pride.

"The Kingdom of Prussia is a great country. I have great respect for Frederick the Great in your country. He was a wise and wise monarch and a great patriot. During the time of Frederick the Great, your country acquired a large amount of territory. The economy and culture have also developed tremendously. I think that the achievements of your country today have already been decided during the reform of Frederick the Great ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ The success of the Kingdom of Prussia is inevitable, and it was upgraded from Prussia to Kingdom in 1701 Beginning until the founding of the German Kingdom in 1871,

Among the Prussian kings, except for the eleven years of Frederick William II's reign, Prussia suffered the defeat of the First Anti-French War and the country's economy went backwards. The period of seventy-one years gradually strengthened the power of the Kingdom of Prussia and eventually unified the German region.

The success of the Prussian Kingdom has always been praised by future generations. Li Mingyuan also wants to learn from the successful example of the Prussian Kingdom and build a powerful new country in the future.

"I can't think of your being so familiar with the history of our country. Your knowledge is admirable."

It is a matter of pride to be praised by a foreigner, especially a capable military commander, for his country, so after listening to Li Mingyuan's words, West was very happy.

"Coloster West has won awards, and your country's achievements are remarkable. I just want to find a way out of your country's success." Li Mingyuan waved and laughed.

"I just saw the majesty of your logistic forces on the road. I don't know whether you can allow me to visit your regular army." Chatting with Li Mingyuan for a while, West brought up the topic.

"The establishment of our army is still short, and the deficiencies please ask the colonel to point out the correction." Li Mingyuan said modestly.

"Don't dare to correct me, but before serving as a navy, I served in the Royal Prussian Guards, so I have some experience with army operations." The Guards are proud to serve.

"Ha ha, this is better, Colonel West, we can watch the soldiers exercise now." Li Mingyuan laughed and went out with West. ...
