"How do those three people identify with the monarchy?"
Tangning. Pedro asked Drews about the political leanings of the three people he was going to support.
Drews faithfully reported: "Plutarco Elias Calles was very sympathetic to all Portuguese institutions and was also very interested in the monarchy.
Emilio Portes Hill and Pascual Ortiz Rubio also recognized the Portuguese system and had no objection to the monarchy.
I have here a secret survey of the rebel army's attitude towards the monarchy, which His Majesty the Emperor can take a look at."
Drews was very knowledgeable and knew that Pedro wanted all of his children to be kings, so he kept an eye on him.
"Well, you did it very carefully, show it to me!"
Mexicans used to dislike the monarchy and overthrew it several times. Even now, most people are more supportive of the republic.
But now Mexico's intellectuals have changed. They have a broad vision. Unlike Caudillo, the people who are coerced support the republic. They are not too disgusted with the monarchy now, and some people like it very much.
After all, all over the world, the mainstream powerful countries in the world are still dominated by monarchies, that is, France and the United States are republics.
Mexican elites are now very resentful of the United States, especially since they have realized that the republic is vulnerable to manipulation by Caudillo and foreign countries.
The presidential republic is too easily influenced by Caudillo and foreign countries, and ordinary Mexicans are too ignorant to elect a good president, which is a drag on Mexico.
A large part of Mexico's current elite already believes that because of the existence of the republic, foreign countries and Caudillo have been given the ability to dominate the country. Perhaps the monarchy can try.
Especially the rise of Pedro III in the Americas and the growing strength of the Portuguese Empire made many Mexican elites have a favorable impression of the monarchy, or at least not dislike it.
The deeds of Pedro III inspired a large number of Mexican elites.
Mexico may really need a strong monarch to stabilize the country. The monarch may represent the interests of all Mexicans, rather than the Caudillo powerful and foreign lackeys as previously thought.
"Okay, very good!" Pedro said very happily after reading the report.
"It seems that after Mexico gets rid of the United States, we Portugal can control it, and Mexico will have a king with royal blood from the Portuguese Empire!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Drews flattered him at the right time.
"Portugal, we must have a certain degree of control over Mexico's resources. Except for the key support, we should not increase other resources and maintain a small intensity.
The longer the civil war in Mexico lasts, the better. Don't overthrow the Caudillo government all at once. Use it to bleed the United States and drain Mexico's national power.
It will take a long period of civil strife and war in the republic to make the people hate the republic and pave the way for the monarchy in the future."
Tangning was not in an urgent mood to control Mexico. On the contrary, he wanted to drain the strength of the Latin American countries so that they could only rely on Portugal in the future.
Many Latin countries in North America resent the United States. Even Panama, which was supported by the United States, has many people who resent the United States.
The Panamanians suffered greatly during the construction of the Panama Canal, and many people were expropriated. However, the property rights for the canal construction belong to the United States, not to Panama.
In other words, the Panamanians paid blood and tears, and with only meager wages, worked hard on their own land for the canal occupied by the Americans.
Through Portuguese propaganda and de facto actions, it has become a political consensus in Latin America that the Caudillo class is a worm in the country.
In many countries in Latin America, people with lofty ideals and open-minded people believe that it is because of the existence of Caudillo that the national interests have been divided by a few people, the people have fallen into poverty, the country has been controlled by foreign countries, and the future is dark.
Defeating Caudillo and clearing obstacles for national development like Portugal did should be an example for Latin countries to follow.
"Nowadays, anti-Americanism is a trend in North American and Latin countries, and your Golden Gun Bureau must promote it.
If you want to intensify the conflicts in those countries, it is best to let them fight civil war.
Only in this way can the foundation of Caudillo and the outstretched hand of the United States be consumed, and we in Portugal can finally take control of the situation."
Tangning Pedro is not disgusted with the outbreak of civil war in Latin countries in North America. He even likes it very much and is happy to promote it.
If there is no change and consumption of their strength, Portugal's influence on them will only be superficial and cannot be deeply controlled.
If a Latin country is destroyed, then their country's reconstruction will have to rely on Portugal. In this process, it is the best and most convenient time to control them.
For the reconstruction of the country, they are destined not to rely on Europe.
Because Latin America is Portugal's sphere of influence, no European power would offend Portugal for the sake of a small, remote and backward country.
"Your Majesty, our Golden Gun Bureau has been vigorously stirring up the situation in the Caribbean. The anti-government forces in many Latin countries have increased rapidly, and many of them already have considerable armed forces.
I believe it won’t be long before civil wars break out in Latin countries in North America one after another, and the nightmare of the United States and the Caudillos will come.”
As a great agent who made his fortune in the Caribbean, Drews is deeply involved in the situation here and knows a lot about it. Naturally, he can easily execute the plan.
Among the Latin countries in North America, apart from Mexico, there is no big country. They are all small countries with a population of one million, and some countries do not even have 1 million people.
The Mexican plate is big, and the Golden Gun game doesn’t go deep enough.
Fortunately, a civil war broke out in Mexico itself, and the Golden Gun Bureau naturally followed the instructions of His Majesty Emperor Pedro to actively stir up the troubled waters, increase the intensity of the civil war, and increase the strength of the United States.
Unlike Mexico, which has a huge territory, these small Latin countries in central and southern North America, such as Guatemala, Nicaragua, Honduras, Costa Rica, etc., have long been deeply penetrated by the Golden Gun Bureau.
The Golden Gun Bureau has been in contact with anti-American people in these countries very early and has been secretly planning and preparing.
Since the launch of the Cuban crisis, Portugal has entered a strategic offensive, and the Golden Gun Bureau has begun to move.
The anti-American force layout of the Golden Gun Bureau was quickly mobilized. Anti-government forces in these countries were rapidly expanding, and the fuses of civil war were waiting to be ignited.
The outbreak of civil war in these countries is definitely an American nightmare.
These small Latin countries are the fruits of their hard-earned management and their economic colonies. Civil war will destroy the foundation they have built with great effort.
The cost of Portugal provoking a civil war was just some money and materials. With a few small expenditures, great results could be achieved.
When the civil war breaks out, in order to stabilize the basic base, the United States and local Caudillos will only try their best to suppress all opposition forces.
However, the results of forceful suppression will only arouse greater resistance, and the intensity of the civil war will become stronger, which will consume huge amounts of money for them, but it will be of no harm to Portugal.
When drawing the attention of the United States into these civil wars, there is another advantage, that is, it is more convenient to operate on Chile and Argentina!
