C830 The Chinese Army in South America Continent (2/2)
He also brought a personal letter from the President of the Chile. He gave all the Taiping Army warriors and their families Chile nationality, and indicated that after the war, he would pass the Ikek to the Taiping Army and their families.
When Tang Lei used his identity as a Chinese to head north to the Ikek area, Weng Derong and Chen Yonglu had already formed a seven thousand strong army, and was in a stalemate with the Peru army.
Moreover, at that time, the army would already have the official organization of the Chile, and would be known as the ”brown army” of the 6th border.
Even though Xiao Letian had read the information beforehand, he still felt a little reassured. But when the more detailed information came out of Tang Lei's mouth, he immediately sat on the chair and rubbed his temples with his index finger.
His own historical knowledge was still insufficient! Xiao Letian knew most of the things that happened in Europe and Asia in the 19th century, but he did not know much about the events that happened in South America Continent or Africa.
Of course, he had heard of the war at South America Continent, but Xiao Letian did not know the details either. Furthermore, he did not know where Taiping Army had fought alone in the past, and they had even achieved such glorious results.
”We Chinese people are ambitious. We are all Chinese dragons, as long as we take advantage of the wind and rain to soar into the sky … Tang Lei asked, is this why you have forged your identity? ”
Tang Lei was kneeling down on the ground, his eyes red and swollen, hot tears flowing down his cheeks. He had suffered too many grievances along the way, had fought pirates, had fought against the Peru's border guard navy, had crossed the Pacific Ocean and even encountered a storm.
But it was still not enough to make him sad. kept questioning him about why he forged his identity and what intentions did he have, all he needed to do was to force a confession, a hero shouldn't be afraid of being hurt by blood!
”Wuwuwu …” Prime Minister! I, your subordinate, am truly loyal to the heavens. I came to the South America from a faraway China, what identity do I have to be able to get close to Weng Derong and Chen Yonglu? What if they don't believe me? ”
”Even if I can prove my identity in Ryukyu, even if I can prove that I am not Purging Demons's spy, how can I negotiate with him with my identity? telegraph line has not traversed the Pacific Ocean, how can I report this to headquarters? ”
”Prime Minister, we have to get involved in this war. The South America is too rich, we need guano stones, saltpeter, silver ore, copper ore and iron ore … As long as we can get a foothold in the South America, even if it's just one port, our business will be able to infiltrate in … ”
”Prime Minister!” We aren't even afraid of the Austria, what do we care about that little power in Spain? The South America was currently in a state of chaos. The South America that was ruled by the Spaniard was crumbling, and the United States of America had yet to extend its tentacles over! This is our chance! ”
With a ”pa” sound, Tang Lei took out a hand-drawn map of the South America on the ground. ”Ikek, we must occupy this port of the Ikek.
”Everything that this subordinate has done is for this purpose!”
