Of course there are people behind Colombia. Hobart and the group of American capitalists are now working hard to stumble the Panama Canal Company. Even American public opinion has begun to advocate that the people of the Americas unite to cut off the clutches of the new colonists.
The argument of revolutionary spirit.
Although Germany and Russia also prevented them from providing help to Colombia and used their fleets to blockade all the ports along the country's coast, the problem is that if they can blockade the Caribbean coast, they still have the Pacific end! A large number of arms starting from San Francisco have long been sent
In the hands of Colombians.
Colombians are not stupid either. Once the Panama Canal is built, there will be a steady stream of income, which will be collected for decades or even centuries. Such a large sum of money must be fought for no matter what. Show your strength appropriately and let
Those Tyrannosaurus rex know that this is my family's territory after all, and you can't kick me away so simply, so a small-scale, victorious conflict is very necessary.
Although the opponents are not something they can afford to offend, they cannot really start a large-scale war just for a business deal. At most, it is impossible to send all the 40,000 German and Russian troops in the Caribbean.
, we can mobilize 20,000 people for this canal, as long as we can give them a certain blow and let them know that they cannot ignore the Colombian people, and then negotiate the conditions.
After all, Colombia was once the leader of anti-colonialism in South America. The former Gran Colombia, although it is getting worse year by year, the glory of the great Bolivar still shines on this country, in the light of this South American national hero.
, 40,000 Colombian troops marched into Panama, preparing to punish these traitors with force.
Unfortunately, as soon as they crossed the border, they suffered a heavy blow. Two thousand Umbrella mercenaries had arrived in Panama. Under their command, five thousand Panamanians equipped with a full set of the latest weapons greeted the former with a hail of bullets.
Compatriots. In the first battle between the two sides, the Colombian army was still stuck in the ancient era of queuing to kill. More than 5,000 people fell under the muzzles of heavy machine guns and submachine guns. The heavy blow scared them and forced them to retreat into Colombia.
But what they didn't know was that this was just the beginning of their nightmare.
Turvo, a small town in northern Colombia, is feeling like the end of the world is coming. Countless residents are screaming and fleeing their homes, because five landing ships like prehistoric behemoths are slowly approaching behind them. Hundreds of people havetily organized
The militiamen who had risen were shooting at them with their rifles in vain. Farther away on the sea, more than a dozen large warships were lined up in a row, with countless black holes pointing their muzzles at the shore.
However, these cannons did not fire. They probably thought that the enemy was not worth wasting expensive large-caliber shells. The five landing ships rushed onto the beach under the desperate eyes of the Colombians, and then the seventy-five cannons on the bow roared.
, the poor Colombian warriors were blown to pieces in an instant.
Amidst the explosion of artillery shells and the screams of the Colombians, the hatch doors of the five landing ships opened at the same time, wooden springboards protruded from the inside, and then five thousand Russian soldiers shouted with Mosin Nagant rifles with spikes in their hands.
Rushed out. Then swept over the Colombians like a tidal wave.
"Chen, this kind of battle is so boring! I don't understand what these guys think. Can a small Colombia fight against all the great powers in the world?" On an armored cruiser on the sea, the commander of the Russian Expeditionary Force
Major General Sablin looked at Turvo who had already flown the Russian flag and said.
"General, the Colombians are not stupid. They are preparing to negotiate terms. Since they are negotiating terms, they have to let us know that they are qualified to negotiate terms. Unfortunately, the problem is that they do not know that they are actually not qualified to negotiate terms at all."
Chen Wenqing, general manager of jy company's South America region, said with a sneer.
He is actually Yang Feng's special envoy. This time he has an important mission.
"Come on, General, we don't need to worry about these people. When they decide to fight against the canal company, the tragedy of this country is already doomed. Now we should find a place to sit down and talk about our business." He continued.
said.
Sablin shrugged, and the two of them came to the conference room together. After closing the door, Chen Wenqing pondered for a moment and said, "General, do you know what is the most profitable?"
"Arms?" Sablin said doubtfully.
"No, it's not arms, it's this." Chen Wenqing finished speaking calmly and threw a small thing wrapped in paper to him.
When Sablin opened it, his expression changed.
"Opium?" The guy immediately recognized what he was holding.
"Yes, it's opium. China is the largest consumer of opium. I think you know this very well. The British even launched two wars with China for the opium trade. When they launched the first war, they were not like us.
Now, they clearly know that their opponents are vulnerable. For this kind of trade, they even risk going to war with a huge empire. This shows how amazing the profits are.
However, this trade may no longer be possible in China. Our Emperor has officially issued a ban on smoking. Of course, this has nothing to do with our business. The market we are going to explore is the United States," said Chen Wenqing.
"Impossible, Chen, this kind of thing is also strictly prohibited in the United States." Sabourin said.
"Who said I want to sell opium? I have better stuff, more high-end and more efficient. Of course, first we need to grow poppies and coca in large quantities, and they need to be grown secretly. The environment in Colombia is undoubtedly poor in every aspect.
The most suitable." Chen Wenqing said.
This is not Yang Feng's business. Although nudipine has just been developed by Bayer and has begun to be put on the market as a drug, once he releases the power of this thing, I am afraid it will become notorious immediately. As for cocaine,
Yin has also been invented a long time ago, but because of poor purification technology, it did not really become popular until the 1980s. However, these are not a problem for Yang Feng, but a great monarch like Emperor Yang certainly cannot have anything to do with this kind of thing.
This is for Santos and his Mexican People's Party.
The future leader of the Mexican revolution has quietly returned to his hometown with more than a hundred Mexican mercenaries who retired from the Chinese Army. He has named his party the Mexican People's Party and is now planning an uprising.
Although Emperor Yang was ready to help him, it was impossible to help him completely selflessly. That was not His Majesty's style, so he wanted to find a way to make money for Santos, and there was nothing more profitable than this kind of business, but Santos
As a revolutionary, he should not engage in this kind of business in a big way. At least he cannot turn his base into a huge poppy plantation. At most, it can be turned into a processing base. This can ensure concealment.
As for the raw material supply area, it was the hometown of the later Medellin Group. The Russians occupied this area and then planted opium poppy and coca on a large scale. The raw materials were sent to Mexico, where Santos processed them into nude and cocaine, and then
Mexican immigrants throughout the United States sell them throughout the United States and even the Old World, and the funds obtained are used to purchase weapons, medicine, and food from China, thus forming a perfect industrial chain.
Such a business is impossible without a strong backend. Since Emperor Yang is not suitable for this backend, there is no doubt that Nicholas is the most suitable. Anyway, he does not have a good reputation in Europe. Even if the outside world knows that the Russian army is
South America is planting these things on a large scale, and I’m afraid no one will dare to cause trouble for him. If this continues for a long time, there will eventually come a time when the U.S. government cannot tolerate it. At that time, war may be unavoidable. In this way, you can support Santos without spending your own money.
It can also stir up hatred between Russia and the United States. It can also attract the attention of the Russians to South America and drag their troops here. It can also be used to poison the white people... Emperor Yang's move has so many benefits that he can't count them with both hands.
Come.
Sablin didn't know this. He only knew that he was going to make a fortune soon. Not only himself, but also the entire Russian Expeditionary Force was going to make a fortune. How did the British East India Company make a fortune? Isn't it just by selling these things to China?
? Look at those British people in the Far East back then, who didn't come back covered in gold? The situation has changed, and now it's the turn of the Russians, not to mention that the Americans are richer than the Chinese.
All that is needed now is to lay down enough land.
"Chen, I think we should ask the Governor for additional troops," the guy said with a sinister smile.
"We don't need a big place for the time being. After all, it takes time to promote this thing. It is estimated that one province of land in Colombia will be enough." Chen Wenqing said with a smile.
"What about processing?" Sabourin asked.
"Someone else is responsible for this. Your country only needs to ensure the supply of raw materials. However, your country's navy must be responsible for the delivery. The distance is not far. The production base is in Mexico. You need to know that in the promotion process of this kind of thing
It's very important. Mexican immigrants are spread all over the United States. They obviously have advantages that your country cannot match. As for the distribution of benefits, we will discuss it at that time, but the premise is that your team must ensure the safety of the supply area. This may depend on His Majesty the Tsar.
Interest in South America." Chen Wenqing said.
He was probing the Russians again. After all, Yang Feng didn't know how Nicholas wanted to deal with Colombia.
"Chen, His Majesty's interest depends on what the court ministers tell him, and what those ministers tell him depends on this thing." Sablin took out a banknote and said calmly. (To be continued...
