Chapter 438: End of Paraguay

The heavy rain stopped, roaring through the night's strong wind, venting the accumulated mood, and gradually turned calm. The sky above was still gray, and thick, gloomy clouds moved and rolled near the river bank, as if gestating strength for the next more violent storm.
On both sides of the Luan River, where the storm approached, there was a mess.
Collapsed, sloping wooden houses, brick houses, crying and shouting children staying near the houses, and bare-footed Paraguayan women in shabby rags and running back and forth in the flood ...
The power of nature is really shown in front of Lope, but compared to the sight before him, the damage to the fleet and the subsequent reports from various parties have made him even more worried and worried.
Two transport ships sank and suffered five. 39 soldiers fell into the water during the storm at night and disappeared. The situation in South Togrosso continued to deteriorate. An infantry battalion under the second division was attacked by Indian armed forces and the major commander was seriously injured. During the death, 127 soldiers were lost throughout the infantry battalion. The remaining soldiers were forced to retreat under the leadership of a captain officer.
The situation at the front and rear is increasingly detrimental to the Lopez regime. Before Lopez Jr. digests the effects of the two bad news heard yesterday, Lieutenant General Francisco Isidoro, Chief of Staff of the Paraguayan Army, holds a telegram. Come quickly to him.
"Sorry, Your Majesty, please forgive me for interrupting you at this time."
"Say, where's the telegram from?"
"We have just received a telegram from General Hopkins. A Border Guard of the Fourth Army Division on the way out of the inspection arrested three black men who were trying to escape to the Brazilian military-controlled area. The three black men Armed with weapons, the soldiers of the security forces searched from them and found a military map showing the deployment of the Kingdom Army in southern Goias. "
中 Lieutenant General Lisidoro handed the telegram to Lopez Jr.
"Is the information true?"
After reading the telegram, Lopez asked quietly.
"General Hopkins has a 10% certainty that the former Brazilian black ethnic group in southern Goias has a private connection with the Brazilian army."
"I see, order General Hopkins not to alarm the black communities, for the time being it has not happened."
"However, the black people of Goias have contacted the Brazilian border garrison. General Hopkins is worried that the south of Goias might be attacked by the Brazilian army. Your Majesty, you know, the southern area of ​​Goias Only 8,200 men of General Hopkins's 4th Division. If the Brazilian army launched a sudden attack with the assistance of the South African ethnic group, it would be difficult for Hopkins to complete the heavy task of defending the southern territory of Goias with the existing strength. . "
"The current situation within the Kingdom does not allow us to fight the Brazilians in the other direction. For the time being, bear with it. After the insurgency in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul is resolved, the black people who do not know how to be grateful will feel To punishment from the Paraguayan Army! "
"Yes, Your Majesty."
The old male lion still retains the majesty of the prairie overlord. Even the little Lopez with prestige, declining strength, and worsening physical condition, in the kingdom of Paraguay under his control, still has unparalleled other generals. that power.
Lieutenant General Isidoro obeyed Lopez's instructions obediently, standing silently behind him, dedicating himself to playing the role of a loyal general.
"Go back, I'm a bit tired."
Sitting on the bow deck for more than twenty minutes, Lopez stood up, looked up at the black heart that covered the half of the sky, and suddenly felt a heavy sense of weakness: "Is it another storm? "
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"
Consciousness gradually blurred, and the call beside him became less and less. When little Lopez woke up again, the environment he was in had changed from water to land.
"Your Majesty, you are awake."
"Where am I?"
"Here is Concepcion. Yesterday you suddenly fainted on the boat, and the fleet suffered another storm. For your physical safety, Dr. Doug suggested that you be transferred to the land for medical treatment. The fleet also temporarily stopped to avoid the storm. In the port near Concepcion, refurbishment. "
Lieutenant General Isidoro, chief of staff of the army, stood two meters away from the bed, explaining respectfully.
"Doctor Doug, how is my health now?"
Understanding what happened yesterday when he was in a coma, Lopez Jr. turned his attention to Doctor Doug, who was closest to him.
"Your Majesty, the cold and humid weather on the Paraguay River and the rough and rough environment on the water have aggravated your illness. For your health, I suggest that you stop your plan to command the war north, rest in Concepcion, adjust for five to seven days, Wait until the condition is under initial control before returning to Asuncion for comprehensive treatment. "
不 "No, the frontline soldiers need the leadership of their king, and I cannot abandon the promise to the frontline soldiers and return to Asuncion halfway."
Xiao Lopez struggled to move a little body, determinedly: "I know my physical condition, just because the weather is humid and cold, there is a little problem, after a few days of rest, it will be fine.
The transport fleet and the soldiers on the ship are temporarily repaired in the port for three days. After three days, if my health improves, I will accompany you to continue to the north. If three days later, the body recovers slowly, it is up to Isidoro. The Lieutenant General and the Navy Fleet Commander, Major General Falcon, led the transport fleet first, while I stayed in Concepcion, temporarily set up a central command, and commanded the frontline counterinsurgency war. "
"Your Majesty ..."
Dr. Douglas had to persuade, but was stopped by Lopez Jr.,
"According to my arrangement, General Isidoro and General Falcon returned to arrange the repair work of the transport fleet and soldiers,
Lieutenant Colonel Mandeilly and Cavalry Battalion replaced the Guards and were responsible for the security of the port camp.
上 Colonel Alonso is responsible for contacting the Garrison Commander of Concepcion. "
"Yes, Your Majesty." ...
I was ordered by several generals and officers to take orders, and then left the small Lopez's room one after another.
On the fourth night of the transfer of the transport fleet to the port of Concepcion, the day before the scheduled departure of the transport fleet, the little Lopez who stayed in the port camp to rest and recover, the condition became worse again.
疼痛 Chest pain, dyspnea, and limb weakness! The intense pain from the limbs to the chest made Lopez the closest to his body's real perception: "This time, I'm afraid I can't stand it."
As the oil neared and the lamp dried up, even with all the regrets in Lopez's heart, he had to consider one of the most pressing questions: "What should Mrs. Lynch and their children do after her death? What is the fate of the Kingdom of Paraguay do?"
"Guard! Guard!"
The little Lopez made a few hoarse shouts in response to the painful stimulation.
"Your Majesty!"
的 The guard in charge of the guard outside the house came in and saw the little Lopez lying on the bed, struggling in pain, and immediately shouted at the other guards: "Go and get to know Dr. Ge and Colonel Mandeilly!"
"Yes, sir!"
Puppet Lopez's condition deteriorated extremely, and dozens of guards close to the core area of ​​the camp hurriedly transmitted information in other directions.
"Your Majesty, hold on for a while, Doctor Doug is here."
Twenty-three minutes later, Colonel Mandeilly and Dr. Doug, the nearest cavalry battalion commander who lived around the small Lopez, rushed to the scene.
Lieutenant Colonel Mandeirli changed a soldier, carefully leaning Lopez's upper body against his own body, anxiously: "Doctor Doug! Heal Your Majesty!"
"It's late, it's too late."
In the noisy voice, there was a weak gasp of little Lopez.
"I can't stand it this time. After I die, I hope you can embrace Carlos just like you."
Lopez Jr. took a last breath ~ EbookFREE.me ~ explained to Colonel Manly Erie: "The operation plan to support the state of Mato Grosso do Sul was immediately suspended, and the third stationed in the port of Casado was ordered The division accepted the second division's retreat, temporarily agreed with the Indians' political demands, and promised to grant the Indians the same powers as the Mestizo (Indo-European mixed race).
He ordered General Hopkins, the commander of the fourth division, to reduce his troop strength and strengthen the alert to Brazil.
He ordered Major General Ames Washburn, the second brigade commander stationed in Concepcion, to let him lead the troops of the second brigade, merge with the Guards, return to Asuncion, and then receive the command of Carlos. "
Intermittently explained a few important things, and the blue-brown eyes of Lopez Jr. gradually lost his glamour: "Tell Carlos ......... and let him ... improve the relationship with the Han Dynasty ... ............ for the enemy ... "
The oil lamp, which was dimly lit, was hit on the ground, and the glass cover shattered.
There was a breeze blowing through the open door, and the rest of the light couldn't help the breeze to fiddle with the last trace of temperature.
I was like a broken oil lamp on the ground. Little Lopez, who had exhausted his last energy, came to the end of his life, and finally closed his eyes with dissatisfaction with this world.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! ........."
The shouts of puppet officers and soldiers echoed in the spacious room, but no response was received from the Paraguayan leader.
