Rebirth of South America as King

After the 10,000 Peruvian army led by Hudadatini was annihilated by the captives, the ambush 20,000 Chinese troops left some soldiers to guard and seize the supplies. The other soldiers, under the leadership of Li Mingyuan, escorted the Peruvian prisoners and headed for Arequipa.

The ambush battle lasted three hours, of which about 2,000 people in the 10,000 Peruvian army on the road ahead fled the battlefield under cover of the night. The remaining soldiers killed 1,000, and 6,000 soldiers, including Datini, were captured.

Gaudatini and the 6,000 soldiers captured by the Chinese Independence Army remained useless, and killing them not only won no benefit, but they also avenged Peru.

Therefore, taking advantage of the defeat of the Peruvian army, Li Mingyuan again entered Arequipa, using the captives in his hands to force the Peruvians to redeem the supplies.

Huddatinni led 30,000 Peruvian troops to southern Peru to recover the lost land, and the army carried a large number of horse transport troops.

There is no shortage of food and Chinese independent army, but the more livestock such as horses, the better.

As we all know, during the long march of the army, the horse can be used as a tool for transporting materials to relieve the logistics pressure of the army. On the other hand, the horse is good food. When the army encounters a food crisis, it can serve as emergency food and help The troops weathered the crisis.

Twenty-six Peruvian captives According to Li Mingyuan's idea, one horse was exchanged for one captive. Six thousand people were six thousand horses.

As a Peruvian general, Dartini can exchange 1,000 horses, which adds up to 7,000 horses. However, after interrogating captured Peruvian officers, Li Mingyuan learned that there were 10,000 horses in Arequipa, so he set the price Raised to 10,000 stallions.

The sky was bright, and after a march in the middle of the night, nearly 20,000 Chinese troops escorted Peruvian prisoners to the city of Arequipa.

The Peruvian soldier who fled in advance passed the news of the defeat to the Peruvian general who defended the city. So when the Chinese troops arrived, the gates of Arequipa were closed and the walls were full of nervous Peruvian soldiers.

告诉 "Tell them that this time we are returning their generals and will not attack the city."

I was ordered to rush out a cavalry from the Chinese troops, and rushed to the gate, shouting to the Peruvian army that was guarding the city.

"General, the rebels let us trade horses for General Datinny and captured soldiers."

On the rampart wall, a Peruvian officer reported the news to Lustuat.

Dartini's attack on the Chinese Independent Army failed, and 20,000 troops lost half. Even he himself became a captive of the Chinese Independent Army. He was worried that the Chinese Independent Army would retaliate with anger, and his deputy would invite Lustuart into the city. , Assist in defending the city,

Except for Datinny, Rustuat has the highest rank, so the remaining Peruvian army will be headed by Rustuat, who will command all Peruvian troops in the city to guard the city.

Lustuart carefully looked down the city for a while, and found that the Chinese Independent Army did not carry siege artillery, and his heart was calm.

Although he reported to the Chinese Independent Army yesterday, Lustuya did not dare to fully believe that they would keep their promises.

Now that the Chinese Independent Army does not carry heavy artillery, it proves that they really did not want to attack the city again, but just wanted to use the Peruvian soldiers on their hands for more benefits.

After ruling out the risk of the Chinese Independent Army attacking the city, Lustuart said: "I can give them to the horses, but we must ensure the safety of General Datinny."

Ten thousand horses in Tancheng belonged to Datinny's army. They were exchanged with the Chinese Independent Army, and Lustuart lost nothing, so he agreed decisively.

After the transaction between the two parties was successfully completed, Li Mingyuan glanced back at Arequipa City, with mixed feelings in his heart.

Abandon the occupied area and re-enter the area where a strong enemy feeds to establish a base. The process must be dangerous.

Brazil and Argentina are the first and second largest countries in South America, and their weapons and equipment are much stronger than those of Peru.

Once the Chinese Independent Army occupied Rio Grande do Sul, it will inevitably face long-term hostility from Brazil. Therefore, in the early days of the establishment of the Chinese Independent Army ’s bases, it was possible to be attacked by Brazil at all times.

Taking a look at the enemy powers, Li Mingyuan made psychological preparations for the Chinese Independent Army to pay heavy casualties.

Although he turned to southern Brazil and faced various difficulties in the early stage, Li Mingyuan chose this road.

Brazil and Argentina have been involved in the Paraguayan war for three years. The prolonged war has severely damaged the economies of both countries.

Also, Brazil, which has just been independent for decades, has always been plagued by domestic separatist forces, and some provinces under the country have experienced continuous incidents of independence.

Using the weakest opportunity of the Brazilians to occupy Rio Grande do Sul at this point in time is undoubtedly in the best interest of the Chinese Independence Army. After occupying Rio Grande do Sul, the Chinese need not face the problems of southern Peru.

南部 South Peru has a large population. Just one Arequipa, the population will exceed the number of the Chinese Independent Army.

The Chinese Independent Army may temporarily have the advantage by ruling the minority with a few, but after decades, when the older generation of Chinese ages and the Chinese have insufficient force to rule and deter Peruvians, the Chinese will end in misery.

立 The founding of a country in southern Brazil does not have this disadvantage. The three states in southern Brazil are sparsely populated. The Chinese Independent Army that first occupied one state can gain a foothold locally, then gradually expand its sphere of influence, and eventually form a country that cannot be ignored. ...

Twenty-five days later, Li Mingyuan led the vanguard of the Field Army across the border between Peru and Bolivia and into Bolivia.

Bolivia is located on the Andes Plateau, in the middle is a valley area, and agriculture is developed, and many large cities are concentrated here. UU Reading Book www. uukanshu. The northern part of the Com Plateau has fertile land and is a densely populated area; the southern part is a dry desert area with few people and only scattered small towns formed by the development of minerals.

The Chinese Independent Army is now located in central Bolivia, near a grass field near La Paz.

After five consecutive days of forced march, most of the Chinese soldiers felt tired, so Li Mingyuan ordered the troops to stop and repair.

Unfolding a map of Bolivia, Li Mingyuan introduced to a group of senior Chinese Independent Army officers sitting on the grass:

"To the west of us is the city of La Paz, Bolivia, where there are Bolivian troops guarding the border between Peru and Bolivia,

According to reports from the brothers of the investigation camp, there were 3,000 troops in La Paz, which could not pose a threat to our operations. "

Li Mingyuan briefly explained the situation in La Paz, and then said: "The situation of the troops is different from that in Peru. Now our first task is to rush to Asuncion, the Paraguayan capital within the planned time, and work with the Paraguayans to kill the Brazilian army. Therefore, in Bolivia, no army shall take the initiative to challenge the local army. "

明 Li Mingyuan said after glancing at the crowd and said, "Did you understand?"

"I understand."

"What if the Bolivians take the initiative to attack us?" After a response, a Chinese officer asked.

明 Li Mingyuan heard the voice and knew that it was Li Dawei, the cavalry brigade commander, and then turned his head and laughed; "The enemies took the initiative to attack, of course, they fought back. It was impossible to fight back, or to curse, and the Chinese Independent Army did not have this tradition."

大 Li Dawei asked knowingly, which caused a laugh among the Chinese officers.

"Well, we have to hurry in the afternoon, everyone hurry up and take a break." Li Mingyuan waved his hands, and the Chinese officers surrounded by them dispersed.
