Rebirth of South America as King

Chapter 313: Peace talks with Britain

The British expedition withdrew from Brazil for trimming for more than a month. From below Gordon, every British soldier became a big idler. The ordinary British soldiers took the salaries issued by the London government and went to Rio de Janeiro to get drunk. The street shops and taverns in the bleak business have a little noisy and flashy style because of the new guests.

The expeditionary command was given to the British Minister, and the training arrangements for ordinary soldiers were also delegated to the deputy. Gordon didn't have to rush back to the barracks. He walked slowly around Rio de Janeiro alone.

In the center of the Empire Square is a huge statue of the emperor, Pedro I. The statue was built to commemorate Pedro I ’s contribution to national independence when Brazil first became independent from Portuguese colonial rule.

In the past, many Brazilians who visited the Empire Square had to look up at the landmark buildings on the square. When Gordon walked near the statue, he saw a group of students protesting and standing under the statue. He spoke indignantly.

The imperial bureaucrats and nobles were corrupt and incompetent, foreign operations repeatedly failed, and the internal crisis of the empire was severe. The high-ranking government officials only knew that they were in line with the Europeans' views, arbitrarily deprived the land wealth of native white people, and liberated the black slaves that were originally private property Free people, and forced white native landowners to inherit the land inherited from their ancestors and sell it to new immigrants and black people who are free ...

The students who gave lectures criticized and dismissed the policies promulgated since Pedro II ’s administration, and the Brazilian natives around them were not afraid to clap their hands.

More and more Brazilians gathered near the statue, and the students' increasingly fierce words and deeds finally provoked the Brazilian police on patrol and surveillance. First, they loudly warned the crowd and students to disband the demonstrations and quickly dispersed without receiving an effective response. Later, the policeman's patience was exhausted, and he waved the stick in his hand and hit directly on the stomach of a student who was the happiest. Other policemen saw his head out and rushed forward to expel the crowd.

Gordon is accustomed to what is happening now. Under the reform of Pedro II, Brazil ’s political climate is wilder than that of Britain and France. Parliamentarians in the British House of Representatives are at odds with each other. The police faced the demonstrations and the workers fighting for labor rights, but they were only expelled. In Brazil, demonstrations and demonstrations frequently occurred in the deaths of police officers and demonstrators. The riots and separation movements caused by the demonstrations were also absent. few.

Stopping for more than half an hour near the statue, Gordon turned his head and prepared to go back after the demonstrators were dispersed.

"Sir, Your Excellency the Lord, please come to the Embassy to discuss matters."

Gordon walked out of Empire Square and met an embassy staff head-on.

"Did the boys cause trouble in the city?"

British soldiers staying in Rio de Janeiro, it is inevitable to have something beyond friendship with some married wives. In the past month, more than forty similar incidents occurred in the barracks, so Gordon's first reaction was, again The young man did not control his vigorous energy, accidentally wiped his gun and fled, and his relationship with the Brazilian ladies was broken by others.

"No, the soldiers have been very good in the city lately and haven't messed up casually."

The young British embassy official sat on the carriage and explained, "The peace ambassador sent by the Han Chinese has just arrived at the embassy. The ambassador invited you to the embassy area to participate in negotiations with the Han Chinese."

...

At the British Embassy in Brazil, Hu Yaji and several Han diplomats sat in the hall and waited for more than an hour before meeting the British envoy, Oston.

"His Excellency, Han and the British Empire are thousands of miles apart. The outbreak of the Argentine War was just an unfortunate accident. Our Majesty sincerely hopes to restore friendship with the British Empire. The differences and misunderstandings between the two countries on the issue of the Argentine War have begun. "Frank discussions lead to compromises and truce acceptable to each other."

"No, sir, South America is a peaceful and peaceful continent. After your Chinese came to South America, wars and conflicts broke out between countries. The war was picked up by you in advance. The heroic lads of the British Empire When you come to South America from distant Europe, you are here to understand how to save the white Americans who have been invaded and insulted by yours. If you really realize the disaster that the invasion of Argentina and Uruguay has brought to the people of both countries, your Majesty should immediately order his Majesty. The army left the illegally occupied land and returned Argentina and Uruguay to their original owners. "

"The Han army has a strict discipline. During the Argentine war, our army strictly adhered to the duty of war between civilized nations. It never intimidated and oppressed ordinary people in Argentina and Uruguay. If you do n’t believe it, your envoys can come to Han in person. After experiencing it, His Majesty the King of Han was magnanimous and treated the Chinese, whites, and Indians equally, and would not treat them differently because of their white skin color and Chinese, which made your accusation totally false.

Hu Yakiyi rightly refuted the view of the British Minister and continued, "The Han army has no crime against the people of Argentina and Uruguay. No matter how the outside world frame the Han army, the Han army ’s determination to defend its territory will not change. Argentina The people of Uruguay and China have voluntarily joined the Han Dynasty and become naturalized as Han nationals. As long as they are within the territory of the Han country, they can choose their preferred area as their place of residence according to their own wishes. Similarly, the Chinese in Han also have Ability to choose to move to another area.

So you should make it clear that there are not only white residents in Argentina and Uruguay, but also Chinese people who moved there a few months ago. Whether Argentina or Uruguay is willing to accept Han rule depends not only on the white people, but also on the local level. Millions of Chinese people also have the right to speak. "

"Stop your brutal and savage acts at once, or the fleet of the British Empire will pay you a heavy price!"

Hu Yaji's tough reply angered the British Minister, and he yelled, "The Orientals who can't control themselves ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ The cannon giants of the British Empire will let you give up that ridiculous greed!"

"Sir, please don't be angry. The Han country has no unwillingness to oppose the United Kingdom. All we have to do is to defend the results of the bloodshed and sacrifice of the Han army under the current circumstances.

The British Empire is the most powerful empire in the world. We have no doubt. As long as you are willing, you can send 10,000, 20,000, and 100,000 troops to South America to fight again. What tangible benefits? "

"In order to maintain peace in South America and allow Christians in Argentina and Uruguay to bask in the glory of the Lord, the British Empire is willing to send expeditionary forces to fight any enemy!"

The British Minister proudly raised his neck.

"Do not deny that your answer sounds very bloody, but today is not the time of the Crusades. It is a bit irrational for your government to distinguish between enemies and friends based on the color, religion, and cultural differences. The Argentines are similar in color and culture to the British, and your country helped the Argentines attack the Han in the war.

The Argentine War has ended, and your country has also paid the price of thousands of casualties in the fighting more than a month ago. If your country continues to send reinforcements to interfere with the merger of Argentina and Han, how much do you think it will take to defeat National Defense Force with more than 500,000 reserve troops? ".........

The first day of negotiations was completely reduced to a rhetoric between Hu Yaji and British Minister Oston. The British asking price was too high, and there was no sincerity in the negotiation. Facing the aggressive situation of the British, Hu Yaji's response was not humble. The country is unwilling to fall into a long-term war dispute with Britain, and it also fights back against the blackmail of the British resupplying additional troops, showing the Han country ’s hidden war potential and firm belief in long-term warfare.
