Chapter Twenty-Seven

"Who is the one who is doing this!" A slightly mocking and sarcastic voice came from a private room in Penglai Restaurant in Qingdao County.

The person who asked the question was Sheng Dehong, the director of the La Plata Department of the General Administration of Intelligence. He had planned the attack on Franco town by Inigor, a gang of gangs in Nancun Port. After the incident was completed, he quietly left Nancun Port, and then followed several senior executives of the Goshkin Construction Company to return to Qingdao Port by boat and took a vacation.

Today we are all old friends who have been together for many years, such as Liu Xuefei, Weng Guang'an, Wang Huadu and others. Sheng Dehong is the director of the State Administration of Intelligence. Liu Xuefei and Weng Guang'an are the chief and deputy directors of the Northern Chemical Factory and the discipline leader of the Institute of Chemistry of the Natural Academy. Wang Huadu is the general manager of the famous East Coast Gas Company, and holds a certain share in this large state-owned enterprise, which is rich and powerful.

These people are all the elites of the East Coast Republic of China today, and they are gradually taking over the older generation to control national politics, military and economic power. Today, everyone gathered together and talked about some work and life, and they inevitably turned the topic to the most popular Pampa Plain today. The assassination of Father Ramos, which had just happened not long ago, was even more the subject of the topic.

As an official of the State Intelligence Administration, Sheng Dehong naturally knew who killed Father Ramos, not the group of horse manure in the military police headquarters. He heard that the main planner was an officer named Zhou. Sheng Dehong only searched in his mind and knew that it was the son of Zhou Shenwo, the former Central Executive Committee and the tycoon in charge of finance, the brother of Zhou Shenwo, the navy general Zhou Yu, and Zhou Yafu.

This guy is not a radical. This time I don’t know which string is wrong in my mind. With Si’s plausible attitude, he led someone to plan something like this: he shot the respected Father Ramos outside the town of Mar del Plata and killed him.

The shot was really a hornet's nest! The Spaniards were tolerant before and were reluctant to be enemies of the East Coast people. The main reason was that they were afraid that the East Coast people would be overwhelmed and could not resist. But the nature of this incident was different. The killing of religious leaders directly angered the anger of Mar del Plata and even the entire La Plata Spanish. They were originally a little afraid and their courage increased greatly. Their emotions were dominated by some inexplicable factors, and they began to confront the East Coast people.

As an example, the Spaniards, who originally lived in the new city, the old city, and the rivers did not interfere with the East Coast people, began to clash with the East Coast people. Especially after a hundred cavalry squatters from Buenos Aires, the local Spanish residents seemed to have courage and began to constantly attack the settlements of the East Coast people, claiming that "the murderer was hidden inside" and demanding to enter and search. Some people with more intense emotions even said that all the East Coast people living here were murderers, or were protecting the murderers and wanted to drive them all away.

Such a fierce situation is something that people on the east coast have never seen in the past few years. The commissioner of the Niulanshan Regional Administration carried out security and defense work on Niuzhuang County and other places, and then quickly arrived at Yinhai Port by boat and commanded a small number of local militia troops to confront the Spaniards. He understood that at this time, there must be no signs of showing weakness, otherwise it may cause some unpredictable consequences.

The militia on the east coast were all equipped with flintlock rifles, and the training was quite good, with the number of people in the number of people. The county town was a key defense area, so they were not afraid of the Spanish who were angry. What they were worried about was nothing more than that most of their production and operation activities were cut off, which greatly affected their lives.

In fact, not only Yinhai Port was affected by this, but other terrain was also affected in some ways. For example, in Nancun Port, a large number of East Coast merchants were impacted. Not only were the goods detained by Spanish officials for no reason, but the property they carried with them was also robbed by some bitter Spanish mercenaries, and even a murder occurred, which suddenly made people feel the tension of the situation.

The construction of the East Coast Commercial Station (actually a train station) outside the city of Buenos Aires was also believed to have stopped it. The workers of the construction Goshkin Construction Company were beaten by Spanish soldiers, some labor tools were looted, and the warehouses were burned. What's more, these poor Russians were forced to abandon the religious rituals of Orthodoxism and prayed according to the Catholic Church, which made them look pale and look desperate.

In addition, the competition between the Spaniards and the East Coast people for the sandy islands of the Parana River became even more intense. From downstream, to swim, from Buenos Aires to Paraguay, the two sides fought almost everywhere, and gradually caused some casualties.

These incidents occurred one after another one month after Father Ramos was assassinated, and it was becoming increasingly fierce. The East Coast side was somewhat unexpected, and the reaction was slower and a little restrained when dealing with it. The Prime Minister's Government, the Army seemed more decisive. Mo Ming, an old commander who had been in charge of the army system for many years, also returned to the capital from the sanatorium in Beining. He first called the people from the military police headquarters to scold him, and seriously dealt with a group of people who talked about themselves and ignored anything in order to make contributions. Then he directly ordered several battalion commanders of the mixed battalion and mobilized them.

The first person who received the order to mobilize was Major Pei Dade, the battalion commander of the Independent First Cavalry Battalion. He was told to immediately select the main force, enter the Yanbu Railway construction site in the hinterland of the Pampa Plain from the north of Yancheng County, and carry out warnings to prevent the enemy from attacking our road construction workers and the destruction of the roadbed.

Major Pei Dade immediately took the order north, and then divided his troops all the way to control several newly established townships with weak defense, such as Tongxu, Chenqiang, Tishang, Guiling, Heqiu and other places, and strictly investigated the suspects close to him, and immediately expelled him once suspicious. If the person who came refused to obey, then Major Pei Dade was authorized to attack.

After the independence of the First Cavalry Battalion, the Army Department successively mobilized two troops of the mixed battalion, namely the Ninth Mixed Battalion and the Twelfth Mixed Battalion. The two mixed battalions were located in Dingxi County and Yiling County in the Beiyazihu ​​area. They were basically in the hinterland of the east coast and had basically no defense pressure. Therefore, they were recruited by the Army Department, and they were all steamships, trains, and sailboats. After a long time, they finally arrived in Niuzhuang and Yinhai counties, intending to use Dinghai Shenjian to stabilize the local situation.

In fact, the arrival of these two regular battalions did play the role of stabilizing the sea. Especially in the 12th Mixed Battalion that landed in Yinhai County, the battalion chief Major Jiangning (who had served as the guard commander in the Beining area) directly set up the battalion headquarters in the new city of Mar del Plata and sent regular sergeant street patrols to stabilize the situation.

To be honest, these regular soldiers are still very awesome. They are well equipped, have complete military service and have high training levels. The Spanish cavalry were half afraid at first sight, and they no longer had the arrogant attitude they had before. When their momentum became weak, the people of the East Coast rose. Under the support of the 12th Mixed Battalion, the residents of Silver Harbor directly removed some roadblocks set up by the Spanish, dispersed some Spanish cavalry, and resumed the city's production and operation activities.

However, the militias in Yinhai County dare not do these things. This is due to the short establishment time and lack of confidence, and it is also related to the fact that they are the people and not regular soldiers after all. Just as the Army Department's previous evaluation of the security groups in each county, militias are always just native dogs to guard their families and can only serve as supplementary forces of regular soldiers. It is difficult to stand alone (the early militias may be able to do it, but now they are less and less able to do so).

Nearly 3,000 soldiers from the two mixed battalions entered the two counties like this, and the deterrence of hundreds of cavalry in the First Cavalry Battalion, the originally more active Spanish cavalry disappeared immediately. The Spanish residents who were aroused by religious fanaticism were also a little frustrated and did not know what to do.

In addition, the Army recently mobilized the Sixth Mixed Battalion, which uses Qingdao County as the recruitment site for troops. The battalion acting battalion commander Qiao Yuwei (who served as the township armed forces minister and regional security commander in the Beining area), has officially received an order: the entire army will set up the battalion and prepare to board the ship to Nancun Port near Buenos Aires to stabilize the local situation and crack down on thugs who hurt merchants and civilians on the East Coast. At the same time, it cooperates with diplomatic officials who were urgently dispatched by the East Coast Republic to negotiate with a series of issues in the Procuratorate Court District of Buenos Aires, Spain.

This 1,450-strong army has gathered at the dock today. Sheng Dehong, Wang Huadu and others can see it directly from the windows of the private room. These officers and soldiers from Qingdao County are many rich children, so the people who see off at the dock are crowded with people, which makes people a little surprised. Is this a sending relatives to France for war? Why does it feel like they are separated from life and death!

Sheng Dehong smiled and said no wonder the Sixth Mixed Battalion was criticized a lot. It was indeed a wealthy area and a big city. This time, the young masters were just going to the Nancungang area to "tourism" and created such a big showdown. This army was really a problem, and I am afraid it would not be able to fight hard or hard. In comparison, the children of steel workers and coal miners in Tieling and Ping'an areas are much better. They are hard-working, dare to fight and fight, and train harder. This combat power is naturally not a loose Sixth Mixed Battalion. I believe that if it weren't for the Army Department this time, it would not have sent this army out to embarrass.

"I heard that the Army has mobilized three mixed battalions and another independent cavalry battalion, which has a total of 4,900 officers and soldiers. It has also been approved by the government. From this point of view, the Executive Committee's Dukes are still quite tolerant to them. The unorganized and undisciplined thing was just to let the army deal with it, and it is not particularly cruel (it is said that the initiator Zhou Bo was transferred from the military police headquarters and sent to Australia to guide the local fight against the natives). No wonder many people say that the government is going to turn collectively again, which really makes people imagine it." Wang Hua looked at the Sixth Mixed Battalion at the dock that was on boarding the ship quickly and said speechlessly: "The Army guys have been holding it in so many years. I'm afraid they will do something special this time. I hope the Executive Committee's Dukes can tie the dog chain in their hands and prevent the army from doing it recklessly."

"It is inevitable that the Executive Committee will agree to the transfer plan of the Army Department, and there is nothing to complain about." Sheng Dehong lit a cigarette and said with a chuckle: "What else can I say when things are at this point today? Apologize to the Spaniards? Hand over the murderer and let them tie the stake to trial? Or stop the construction of the Salt-Brain or withdraw tens of thousands of immigrants in the Pampa Plain? That is impossible! Now, we can only make mistakes and be tough to the end! These 5,000 regular soldiers spread to the Spanish territory. The pressure the Spaniards under was not ordinary! You know, this is the first time that regular soldiers in the East Coast Republic of China have been large-scale and openly blatant after the Second East-West War.

Don't underestimate the meaning of entering the territory of the Kingdom of Spain. It's a great shock to the Spaniards. I guess that the city of Buenos Aires is now filled with a panic atmosphere. Of course, the shadow of the invincible East Coast Army sweeping La Plata has once again enveloped the hearts of many Spaniards, especially those of some older Spaniards. At this time, if the East Coast Army receives further instructions and makes some hostile or aggressive actions, the Spaniards may be even more panicked, because this is to force them to make a choice, to declare war immediately or to surrender? They have no chance to delay, and this time they are trying to force them to express their opinions."

"The five thousand guns and live ammunition forces the army to express their opinions. This Spaniard is really unlucky. After this incident, no matter what the outcome, this general Owando will be done to the end and may be taken to Lima or even Madrid for trial. In fact, this Spanish general, known as the "East Coast Connect", has been working hard to safeguard the interests of his motherland for so many years. Although he has been misunderstood, who has made the country insufficient strength, and it is not enough to be insufficient, but he is deeply involved in one boring after another.

War is exhausted, so they are destined to be unable to stand up. I guess, the days when our East Coast Gas Company built the gas lamp to Buenos Aires are getting closer and closer, and this pearl city on the banks of the La Plata River is getting closer and closer to our country. Let's wait and see. Hehe, this year's new government station does not feel much the same. The old people who were criticized in the past disappeared. The government suddenly became full of energy and aggressive. I am afraid there will be many good shows to watch in the future." Wang Hua also said with a smile.
