There are two exams next week, and it will take at least one more week, sorry.
Relations between Mapuche and white Argentine became tense again after the conflict in Antonio. On April 12, Argentina imposed an economic blockade on Patagonian Indians and closed the two border-controlled areas. Trade channels.
On April 13th, Yilia agreed to Ye Chenglin's request and led the remaining 17 young people in the tribe to join the mixed army.
On April 15th, feeling the hostility from Argentina, the chiefs of Patagonian tribes began to mobilize young and middle-aged members to join Ye Chenglin's troops. As a result, the early stagnation of recruiting began quickly.
Sierra Grande, the temporary garrison of the Patagonian Army of the National Defense Forces, Ye Chenglin looked at the letters submitted by the chiefs of various tribes with a smile on his face.
Patagonian Indians and Spanish whites have been dealing with for hundreds of years. They have learned a lot from Westerners in the Western society. If they still treat them as uncivilized savages, they will set up a Patagonian mix. The mission of the legion can never be completed.
Han's military strength in Patagonia is only one 151 infantry company and thirty-four officers dispatched.
Relying on troops supported by less than two hundred men, Ye Chenglin encountered many difficulties in his early recruitment in Patagonia.
The first is that chiefs who are the upper class of the tribe are worried that sending tribal youth to join the troops under the Han may destroy the peace between the two sides and cause the war to break out again. Therefore, although they respect Li Mingyuan as the king of Patagonia on the surface, It was unwilling to cooperate with the operations of the National Defense Forces.
Secondly, the Patagonian Indian military armed forces are composed of small and medium-sized tribes, and the core fighting force of the armed forces is tribal warriors like Elia, which cannot get their approval, even if the thirteen Indian chiefs are fully d It was also difficult for Ye Chenglin to recruit enough troops from the Patagonian Indian tribe to take refuge in the Han Dynasty.
When the three Ilias clashed with the white Argentine, the simplest solution was to endure for a moment and exchange concessions and apologies from Ilia and others in order to resolve the incident. However, when Ye Chenglin arrived at the scene and faced a situation that was still under control, he chose In order to deal with the fiercest response, he did not give the other party a chance to respond, and directly ordered the two followers to shoot and kill the provocative white Argentine.
Ye Chenglin's seemingly reckless move was actually very meaningful. According to the scene at the time, the three rushed to the scene to help them make a clearance and would be grateful to Yilia and others, but this result was not what Ye Chenglin needed.
The order Li Mingyuan gave him was to control the situation in Patagonia and try to control the local Indian armed forces in the hands of the National Defense Forces. It is not in the interests of the Han country to simply be hello and help others to do good deeds.
After the occupation of Argentina, Patagonia will certainly merge into the country of Han as a native territory. At that time, the Indian chiefs who had hoped to use the Han country to defend against Argentina's aggression will likely become an obstacle to the Han country's control of Patagonia. Obstacles in Nigeria, so in the name of resisting Argentine aggression, the concentration of the Argentine youths distributed in various tribes under the control of the National Defense Forces, on the one hand, weakened the military strength of the Indian chiefs, and on the other hand, the assembled Indian youths In the battle for the reunification of Argentina next year, there will inevitably be a lot of casualties. As a result, the loss of the young and strong as the core of Patagonian Indians was heavy, and the remaining old women, children, and chiefs who lacked the support of the armed forces lost their reliance on Han, which controlled Patagonia. The process will also be much smoother.
Population is one of the main reasons for the outbreak of the war, because the Patagonian wasteland is home to indigenous Indians. In order to seize land, white people in Argentina and Chile can only choose to reduce or eliminate Indians. The same is true in the Han country. For the permanent occupation of Patagonia, in order to achieve this purpose, artificially creating war and reducing Indians is the simplest and most effective method.
The way the Han country controls Patagonia is essentially the same as that of Argentine whites, but because Patagonian Indians are closer to the Han and their sparse population than the other Indians. Li Mingyuan Choosing them with limited integration and artificial reduction has given them a reasonably good result.
Ye Chenglin carefully pondered the hints in Li Mingyuan's order. Seriously carrying out the layout of various affairs is not only to complete the task, but also to pass this matter, to leave Li Mingyuan with a stable, capable of handling complex affairs alone, and then surpass Wu Fengdian, The two Chen Zongbai gained the advantage of serving as the commander of the Fourth Division of the National Defense Forces.
Chen Guozhu and other old generals retired. Among the four main divisions of the National Defense Forces, the post of the second division was replaced by Zhao Yongzeng, the commander of the special forces, and the post of the third division was temporarily vacated. However, the third division was under the responsibility of Deputy Division Chief Wang Xiaoshan. According to the relationship between Wang Dashan and Wang Xiaoshan as Li Mingyuan's young guards, the position of the third division commander is either Wang Dashan or Wang Xiaoshan, and Wang Dashan has been serving in the Nanyang Army for a long time. Local news, therefore, the person most likely to take over the position of the third division commander is Wang Xiaoshan ~ EbookFREE.me ~ As for Wang Dashan, it is possible to relocate to the local post after the Argentine war.
Excluding two positions already selected by the Second Division and the Third Division. The first division was transferred from the former Fourth Division commander, Luo Linshan. Of the four field divisions of the National Defense Forces, only the fourth division had vacancies. The persons holding the positions of the Fourth Division were Ye Chenglin, Wu Fengdian and Chen Zongbai.
It is needless to say that Ye Chenglin himself served as the deputy brigade commander of the First Mixed Brigade of the National Defense Forces before he was in charge of Patagonia affairs, with the rank of colonel. After Chen Zongbai and Wu Fengdian were transferred to the local post, they successively served as battalion commanders, The positions of regiment commander, deputy brigade commander and brigade commander of the mixed brigade have the same rank as Ye Chenglin.
The first of the three to be promoted to the rank of colonel was Chen Zongbai. Chen Zongbai served as the second mixed brigade commander in 1874, and his rank was raised to the rank of colonel. Wu Fengdian and Ye Chenglin had to be promoted to the rank of colonel one year later than Chen Zongbai.
Chen Zongbai, Ye Chenglin, and Wu Fengdian have similar qualifications. Among them, Chen Zongbai and Wu Fengdian have more opportunities to contact Li Mingyuan because they serve in the country. Ye Chenglin Yuan is in Patagonia, and there are only one or two hundred people in the National Defense Forces under his command. The situation facing them is much more complicated than that of Chen Zongbai and Wu Fengdian. Correspondingly, if Ye Chenglin can command the mixed forces in Patagonia to obtain good results, the competitive advantage will be more obvious.
