The calm sea waves rolled up, and a large warship sailed out of the mist and sailed on the vast sea.

"Jazz, the London Emergency Telegram!"

In the battleship command room of the warlord class, the attendant officer picked up a telegram and hurried to Gordon.

"Read"

"The situation in Argentina is critical. Expeditionary forces must arrive in Buenos Aires within a week. The London government has a telegram!"

The content of the telegram was only a few crosses, but through the telegram, Gordon could feel the urgent pressure faced by the Argentine federal government, otherwise Mitre would not have contacted the British government by a few days a day of electricity, thus putting political pressure on the British Expeditionary Force.

"Sir, do you call back to London immediately?"

"Call back the Prime Minister's official residence. Our ministry is now located in the Gulf of Guinea. It is expected to arrive in the Brazilian capital four days later. I hope the imperial government will coordinate the Western Empire and provide the necessary logistical supplies and maintenance for the mid-range parking and repair of our expeditionary fleet. Major General Gordon, Imperial Engineer Electricity!"

"Sir, the 3,000 colonial troops sent by the Governor of South Africa have arrived."

The attendant officer recorded the contents of the call and left. Another 40-year-old white officer walked in front of Gordon and reported.

"What about the South African Army? How many native white soldiers are there in the 3,000 Colonial Army?"

"Sir, the situation is a bit bad. General Chelmsford only sent 3,000 Aboriginal black soldiers under the pretext of South Africa ’s military tension. The original white officers and soldiers in the augmented unit were transferred by him to other units. To dispatch 3,000 indigenous soldiers to the front line to fight the Chinese, it is estimated that one hundred grassroots officers and two hundred white soldiers will be drawn from the regular army to serve as the backbone of the army to restore the combat effectiveness of the colonial army. "

Colonel Graham explained.

"Stupid Scottish pig, did he know that doing so would damage the Empire!"

Gordon's face changed drastically, and his gentle face became distorted instantly because of anger!

"Asshole, incompetent, I will report him to London! Damn asshole!"

"Jazz, it's no use. After General Chelmsford took over the reinforcements, he led the South African colonial army to advance inland. Now even if we complain to London, it will not be possible to force General Chelmsford to change his mind."

Watching the boss who suddenly became hysterical. Graham patiently persuaded.

Gordon was born in a British military aristocratic family. His excellent family education and adult military experience around the world, especially his experience in leading foreign gun teams to fight against the Taiping Army in mainland China, have earned him many honors. The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was After the suppression, as a man of Man Qing, Gordon was awarded the title of Admiral, and was awarded the Yellow Horse Jacket by the Emperor Tongzhi.

Returning from China's dismissal, the British government rewarded Gordon for his tribute to protecting British interests in China and awarded Gordon as Sir Buzzon. From this, Gordon reached the first peak of his life!

Gordon, a young man who believes that he possesses special religious abilities, usually displays the so-called gentleman's grace, but if he encounters something that makes him angry, his pride and brazen nature will be revealed!

Graham is Gordon's old subordinate serving in Egypt, because he can well catch the intention of his boss. After Gordon was transferred from Africa by the British government, Graham also followed the old boss to the British Expeditionary Forces as Gordon. Deng's deputy and personal secretary.

"The defeat of the Zulu War has a huge impact. General Chelmsford is now working hard to resolve the consequences left by the defeat of the Zulu War. If you report this to the London government at this time, it is likely that General Chelmsford will follow up. revenge.

Sir, it is important to assist the Argentine Federation. You and General Chelmsford may wish to wait until the end of the fighting in Argentina before making a decision. "

"No, Chelmsford's private exchange of reinforcements is a major event to deceive the imperial government. Wouldn't you and I deceive the imperial government in general if you didn't report it?

The lieutenant colonel, ordered the telegraphers to report immediately to report the situation of South Africa's reinforcements to the London government. "

"Yes, Sir."

Seeing Gordon's determination, Graham stopped persuading and turned to leave the command room and walk towards the telegraph hall.

The waves slammed against the sea, and the dense black smoke accompanied the steel giant to speed up on the sea. Looking at the sea view, Gordon's angry mood gradually subsided.

An arrogant and extreme British officer is most angry at being deceived and fooled by others. Gordon first encountered this situation in Changzhou, China. As a British soldier, he and Li Hongzhang jointly guaranteed the safety of the Changzhou Taiping Army. However, after the Taiping Army surrendered, Li Hongzhang privately ordered the surrender of the Taiping Army, which provoked Gordon.

The reason for Gordon's anger was not to sympathize with the lives of tens of thousands of Taiping generals, but to feel that being a white superior was deceived and played by the Qing people, resulting in a huge sense of shame.

The killing in Changzhou brought a sense of shame to Gordon, and the suppression of the Taiping Army gave him a glorious honor. Now, an English general who lost to the hands of African indigenous people, in his eyes, the incompetent and stupid Chelmsford used frustration Inferior methods will drop the reinforcements and make him feel naked humiliation again. Gordon can't stand the other party's behavior anyway.

Seizing Chelmsford's fault, Gordon sent a detailed telegram to the London government, strongly suggesting that the London government punish Chelmsford's behavior.

Gordon's telegram, as Chelmsford led the army to a major victory over the Zulus, received only a modest response from London. On the contrary, it urged the expedition to step up its assistance to the Argentine liaison forces. Telegram orders are becoming more frequent.

On May 11th, the Chinese navy reconnaissance ship disguised as a fishing boat found the British Expeditionary Fleet in the waters of northern Brazil. On May 12th, the British Expeditionary Fleet arrived in Rio de Janeiro, the Brazilian capital. The fleet was repaired for one day and set off on December 13. Buenos Aires.

"Order the main force of the Navy Fleet to retreat from the New Beijing Port, and send troops to sail sail ships to form a guerrilla fleet, cruising Buenos Aires to the waters off Rio de Janeiro, Brazil ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ waiting for the opportunity to destroy the British expeditionary fleet's maritime supply routes!"

The frontline command of the National Defense Forces, Li Mingyuan, stood in front of the sand table, integrated information from all parties, and issued new operational orders.

"The cavalry divisions of Li Dawei and Feng Changqing were transferred to Casaros, west of Buenos Aires, and there was an ambush that might occur.

The first, third, and sixth brigades of the armed forces supplemented some of the army officer academies' officers and logistics transportation to form a strong first army. They replaced the cavalry division's defense line and blocked the Argentine reinforcements in Urquisa. "

"Yes, Your Highness!"

The combat staff also stood on both sides, while listening carefully to the order given by Li Mingyuan, while holding a pen to record.

"The frontal forces released the side city defenses of Buenos Aires and concentrated the 155mm heavy artillery regiment and independent artillery brigade to attack the central city gate gap in Buenos Aires. Once the artillery unit expands the enemy city gate defense gap, the rest The troops followed up completely and completely eliminated the resistance! "

"Yes!"……
