Chapter 435: Paraguay

数千 Thousands of kilometers south of El Salvador, the capital of the Brazilian Empire,
的 Paraguay, which is located in a humid subtropical climate zone, entered the late autumn and early winter seasons, where cold currents from the north of the Antarctic region and warm currents from the south of the Amazon Basin meet here, forming a period of heavy rainfall and cooling weather.
The rain, like lianlian, did not intermittently fall from the sky, slap on the fertile black ground, and splashed turbid water droplets.
The temperature dropped suddenly by 12 degrees compared to yesterday. On the streets in Asuncion, more than 200 soldiers who were accustomed to the cool summer uniforms yesterday, immediately felt a sudden fall in temperature and replaced them with thicker autumn and winter. Gray military uniform.
Warm, thick military uniforms are worn on the body, and a batch of green rubber raincoats purchased from neighboring countries in the south are put on the outside, and heavy raindrops on the body will not feel the slightest coldness.
Unlike the capital city defense officers and soldiers with complete protective equipment and relatively well-equipped equipment, businessmen and civilians who are dressed in various clothes, or in smart suits, military officers, or are disheveled and just kicked out of warm houses have failed. Received the same general treatment as the Guardian Lopez Jr.
The rain hit them without any cover, wet their clothes, and the gentlemen's postures carefully dressed in the past disappeared under the destruction of the cold rain.
之前 Before yesterday, no matter how prominent their status and status, but after today, they were considered guilty by King Lopez Jr., they have only one common identity against the traitors and criminals of the great king!
However, Paraguayans charged with such crimes faced either direct execution or detention in prison, waiting for His Majesty Lope's final decision.
Standing on a cross-flowing, messy street, Colonel Mariano Alonso looked at the animal waste floating on the sewage not far away. Disgusted: "Hell! Damn bad weather! Damn drain!"
Colonel Mariano Alonso indignantly vented his dissatisfaction with the vision of the eyes, and asked the officer next to him: "How many people have not been arrested on the arrest list?"
"A total of 148 people were arrested in the central and northern districts, 6 of them escaped, and 72 people in other urban areas did not arrest."
"Quicker! The 6 people who escaped the arrest are ignored for the time being, and the first 72 will be on the list, and the remaining 72 will be arrested back!"
Colonel Mariano Alonso did not want to stay in the sewage-filled streets for a minute, urging.
"Observe! Colonel."
The officer beside him accepted the order, then turned and left, with a small team of more than forty or fifty people, left the crowd and hurried to another city.
Watching the squad disappear completely in the rain, Colonel Mariano Alonso smiled.
"Major Masman, put all the criminal property we collected this morning, and I will check and verify for myself."
"Yes, Colonel."
Another officer responded loudly with a flattering smile on his face: "Colonel, according to previous rules, the silver dollars, bank certificates, and jewellery collected were recorded and classified. You can rest assured that there is no shortage of silver dollars."
"Go, take me to see."
Colonel Mariano Alonso nodded and instructed several officers to lead the soldiers to guard the arrested criminals, and he went into a house next to the street with more than ten other officers and soldiers.
"Take half of the jewellery obtained from this collection and give it to Mrs. Lynch. The remaining part will be reported to 60%. The remaining four ingredients will be made in two copies. One will be distributed to the officers below the Captain Regiment. According to the old rules, the battalion commander of the battalion of the Guards Corps and officers from the command of the regiment and above are involved in the distribution. "
He supported the officers sent by King Lopez Jr. to supervise the Paraguayan Army, who was responsible for apprehending criminals. Colonel Mariano Alonso, commander of the Guards Corps, was skilled enough to distribute the collected dirt.
The distribution plan of Colonel Mariano Alonso safeguards the interests of all relevant personnel. Mrs. Lynch is the lover of King Lopez Jr., because she has not obtained a formal status and is not sure whether her son will succeed in succession With the power of Lopez Jr., she ascended the throne of the King of Paraguay. Therefore, in order to satisfy her regret that she did not have an official status, Mrs. Lynch took advantage of the love of King Lopez Jr. to collect money.
Along the line of Mrs. Lynch, Colonel Mariano Alonso got the fatty of arresting the treason, and while continually making contributions to Mrs. Lynch, she also used her power and gave herself Bring up a lot of wealth.
By rallying the upper ranks and then wooing lower rank officers and soldiers with partial benefits, Colonel Mariano Alonso was able to find a shortcut to promotion and wealth in Paraguay's chaotic and turbulent situation.
Of course, huge rewards also carry huge risks. Being with a suspicious and paranoid monarch like Lopez Jr. also means huge risks. One year ago, because of fearing that his generals would have too much prestige, Lopez Jr. Dismissed the Marquis of Istiqalibi, forcing the other party to retire from service.
Six months ago, someone reported that Major General Pelham Horton, the commander of the Guard, was unfaithful to the country and was dismissed by Lopez Jr. and held in Asuncion prison. Half a month later, Major General Pelham Horton Suicide.
Four months ago, Lopez Jr. arrested and executed 270 soldiers, 12 school officials, and 3 generals under the pretext that someone in the army was suspected of conspiracy to treason, corruption, etc., and was implicated in this incident. Another 47 officers and more than 1,000 One soldier was detained.
The target of Lopez Jr.'s suspicion has been expanded by government officials and businessmen into the army, and successive heavy rains and dams burst, leading to successive Indian rebellions in the northern region, which may increase his suspicion and anger.
Since the reorganization of the Kingdom of Paraguay, not to mention some generals who control the local military and political power, they have dissatisfaction with Lopez Jr., that is, close officers, lovers, and relatives around Lopez Jr. are also seizing money and transferring property. Plan for yourself.
The Han embassy in Paraguay is the most popular place for the Paraguayan dignitaries, because through the embassy in Han, they can deposit or transfer the property they searched abroad, and rely on the close relationship established with the Han embassy in the previous period. There is an irreversible crisis in Paraguay's domestic situation. They also have the opportunity to get the help of the Chinese embassy to escape Paraguay's explosive powder bucket.
Plan ahead and prepare an extra path for yourself. Colonel Mariano Alonso, like other Paraguayan nobles, does not want hard-earned and accumulated property to be cheaper for others, so he was promoted to the Guards two years ago. The head of the regiment started, and he also began to divert the searched money to foreign countries through various secret methods.
局势 The situation in Paraguay has progressed to the point where it is today. People with a little vision understand that the rule of the Lopez family will not last.
Adult men over the age of twelve in the country are required to undertake compulsory military service, while the elderly and women are treated as free labor to grow food and cotton in the fields for the army of Little Lopez.
Although Lopez Jr. once promised to pay his soldiers and hard-working women after the war with the Brazilians, he never fulfilled them.
Civilians in Paraguay are gradually fed up with the brutal rule of Little Lopez. Indians in the newly occupied area and near Bolivia first set off an armed rebellion against Little Lopez. Although Paraguayan civilians in other areas were frightened by Little Lopez The cruel reputation did not respond to the uprising, but they also resisted the oppression of Lopez Jr. with a negative attitude.
Near the Uruguay River Basin, hundreds of unbearably oppressed Uruguay women are smuggled into Han-controlled areas every year, while the checkpoints near the border with Han are doing their best in conscience and Han. Next, the supervision of border waters was deliberately relaxed, and Uruguay women allowed to smuggle into Han's territory.
Because of the existence of Lopez and the apparent allegiance of most of the army, Uruguay can still maintain superficial unity. However, as the flood and the scale of the rebellion continue to spread, I am afraid that the situation in Paraguay will not wait for the death of Lopez. Will completely collapse.
As a member of the Paraguayan Army, Colonel Mariano Alonso has no intention of saving the impending Lopez regime because when he saw that more than half of the land in Paraguay belongs to the Lopez family ~ www .EbookFREE.me ~ he understands that trying to save such a regime is simply superfluous.
The breeze was mixed with rainwater and blown under the house. Colonel Mariano Alonso and his officers negotiated a plan for the search of property and were preparing to the prisoner to join another squadron. They received an urgent news. .
"Colonel, Your Majesty orders you to return immediately to the barracks!"
"Is something wrong with the front line in South To Grosso?"
"The Apa River dam collapsed massively. The garrison temporarily stationed near the Apa River Basin was hit by floods and suffered heavy losses.
His Majesty was worried that the frontline rebellion situation would get out of control, and ordered the Guards Regiment, the Guards Cavalry Battalion, the Third Artillery Battalion, and the Engineering Battalion to stand by and wait for orders at any time! "
The commander repeated the order of Lopez Jr. and urged: "His Majesty is preparing to lead the Asuncion Guards to the front line to supervise the battle. Before I set off, each of the scheduled transfer forces accepted the order. Her Majesty hurriedly, Maria Colonel Nord Alonso, I hope you take the time to go back and gather troops! "
"Thank you for your reminder. I will return to the barracks to assemble troops on standby now."
上 Colonel Mariano Alonso thanked the officer for the reminder, and then handed over the remaining affairs to his confidant officer Masman, while returning quickly to the barracks with more than 200 soldiers.
