235 Outsiders in Foreign Wars, Insiders in Civil Wars


Maritime defense is indeed a problem, fortunately, the Spanish Navy has no time to take care of this mess in Cuba, the bourgeoisie in Spain is still making a revolution, the Spanish king Amadeo I took the initiative to announce his abdication on February 11, saying that Lao Tzu, the Italians, do not want to be involved with your Spaniards, the Spanish parliament after learning of the king's abdication, overwhelmingly passed the declaration of the republic, Amadeo I left Madrid in the sound of firecrackers, and returned to Italy with ease, Re-elected as his Duke of Aosta.

In 1868, a coup d'état took place in Spain, General Juan Prim overthrew the unpopular Queen Isabella II and established a coalition government, which convened the Constituent Assembly in 1869.

The Constituent Assembly decided to retain the Spanish monarchy, and the first task of the Union Government was to choose a king for Spain, and Spain began its journey of doom.

The coalition government first chose Prince Leopold of the Hohenzollern family of Germany as king of Spain, a proposal that was strongly opposed by France and became the trigger for the Franco-Prussian War.

In desperation, the coalition government chose the second prince of the newly formed Kingdom of Italy, Duke Amedeo of Aosta, as king.

Just after the king was chosen, in late December, Juan Prim was assassinated, and Spain was once again in chaos.

And that's not all, in 1872, the last year, the Second Carlos War broke out, and Catalonia announced that it would no longer accept the jurisdiction of Amadeo I.

Amadeo I burst into tears, he just wanted to be a king quietly, but he didn't expect the Spaniards to be so able to toss, so Amadeo I took the initiative to resign and stop playing, this king you love whoever you love.

To sum up, the current Spain is much more chaotic than Santiago, ostensibly the bourgeoisie established a republic, but in fact the country is in chaos, Catalonia declared independence, the Bourbon dynasty fought for the throne of the Carlos War broke out again, the republican side was willing to suppress but could not do so, Amadeo I appointed a new Minister of War before he resigned, as a result of this appointment led to the resignation of all the artillery officers in Spain, and the Spanish Republic could not even find the officers who controlled the army.

It is also understandable why some time ago the Republic of Cuba was in turmoil, but the Spaniards were weak in attack.

It's not that I don't want to fight, but I really can't fight, and it's not a crime of war.

Li Mu's current strength is not strong enough, if Li Mu's strength is strong enough, and then pour some oil on the Spanish mainland, then maybe without George Dewey's attack, Willenic Nicolau will take the initiative to sue for peace.

Of course, Li Mu has always ignored Lai Sansan, such a good opportunity must not be missed, so Li Mouren was ashamed: "You think my investment is just to transport some weapons and naïve, you don't want to think about it, the reason why there is so much trouble in Spain is just because of the struggle for power within the Spanish government I issued bonds, but most of the money is used to support the opposition in Spain, if there is no large amount of financial support, You think the opposition in Spain can make such a big move."

It was at a joint meeting between Li Mu's team and the Republic of Cuba that Li Mu finally went berserk.

Although the first battle of El Cristo was won, the threat of the Spaniards was not completely lifted, so the attitude of the Republic of Cuba towards the command of the troops was not very resolute, and when George Dewey analyzed the situation for Darwin Andrew and Casparjadet, there was no controversy on this topic, after all, no one in the Republic of Cuba could lead the troops to contend with Willenic Nicolau.

Isn't there no controversy without a struggle for leadership of the army?

Don't be naïve, these shameless guys with no lower limit have once again refreshed Li Mu's three views, not to compete for the leadership of the army, but to compete for the leadership of the economy.

The war wreaked havoc on San Diego, and in order to ensure that there were enough people in the army, the conservatives finally relented and allowed their slaves to join the army, while the liberals took advantage of the opportunity to grow bigger, and they also wanted to fight for more power.

Li Mu issued treasury bonds in the name of the Republic of Cuba in New York, as early as when Li Mu first met Darwin Andrew, Darwin Andrew had mentioned it, and now Darwin Andrew brought up the old matter again, asking Li Mu to come up with some money to help the Republic of Cuba restore the prosperity of Santiago.

Let Li Mu take the money What a joke, why does the iron rooster not pull a hair Because the iron rooster has no hair at all After Li Mu went crazy, the venue fell into a short dead silence.

George Dewey never imagined that Li Mu would be so shameless Darwin Andrew and they were shocked by Li Mu's generosity, they did not doubt that what Li Mu said was true or false, before that, their eyes had been limited to Santiago and Bayamo, and they did not even cover the whole of Cuba, and the export of revolution to Spain was something they had never thought of.

"So gentlemen, give up those unrealistic illusions, in order to drive out the Spaniards and win the independent status of Cuba, we must give up more at this stage, it must be worth it, needless to say, you know, as long as we drive out the Spaniards, we will be rewarded tenfold and hundredfold."

Li Mu started pouring chicken soup again after he finished his frenzy, not believing that he would not die this gang of hillbillies.

"So, can we issue more Treasury bonds" Darwin Andrew is indeed no longer entangled in the Treasury bonds that Li Mu has already issued, but hits the idea to those tycoons on Wall Street.

Well, this choice is even more unwise than asking Li Mu to pay, are you so easy to fool as a Wall Street tycoon If it weren't for Morgan's help, Li Mu's treasury bonds would not have been sold.

"I'm afraid not, we are not qualified to continue issuing Treasury bonds until the last Treasury bond is repaid, after all, for Wall Street, there are not many guarantees of the credibility of the Republic of Cuba."

Li Mu is not optimistic, of course, it is not absolutely impossible, it depends on how determined Darwin Andrew is.

"If they can accept the first time, then they should be able to accept the second time."

Darwin Andrew was not reconciled, it was like facing a huge treasure mountain, but because he did not have a key, he could not enter the door.

"Okay, you can try" Li Mu didn't insist, if Darwin Andrew had the ability, then let him try, anyway, Li Mu was not prepared to provide any help: "I think that to solve the current predicament, we should start with ourselves, Santiago may have dried up its finances, but Havana must have money, as long as we can capture Havana, we can get as much money as we want." ” Compared to Santiago, Havana is indeed rich, where there are not only the world-famous Havana cigars, but also the sugar mills, distilleries, and plantations painstakingly run by the Spaniards, as long as the capture of Havana is enough for the leaders of the Republic of Cuba to eat fat stomachs.

Of course, it will not be easy to capture Havana, which is the center of Spanish rule in Cuba, and Willenícolau has not been hurt by the defeat of the first Battle of El Cristo, and the Republic of Cuba needs to work harder to capture Havana.

"For now, I don't think we have the ability to attack Havana in the short term."

Casparhadi still retains a hint of sobriety, and the Spaniards are not so easy to defeat.

"How short is this short term, half a year and nine months," Li Mu didn't know Casparhady's bottom line.

"No, no, no, I don't think we're going to be able to do it in three to five years."

Casparhady is more pessimistic.

"Don't be funny in three to five years, I don't have three to five years to spend here, at the latest by the end of this year, we will launch an attack on Bayamo, and by the end of next year, Cuba must achieve de facto reunification, either we unify Havana, or Havana unifies us."

Li Mu's time is precious, and it is impossible to stay in Cuba and play slowly with these people.

Li Mu had already communicated with George Dewey about the training plan, and recently George Dewey would step up the training of soldiers, and it was expected that by the end of October, all the soldiers would be trained, and then they would launch an attack on Bayamo.

"Will the end of this year be too soon?"

said Darwin Andrew, who was skeptical of Li Mu's radicalism.

"We are now short of funds and do not have the ability to launch a counteroffensive against the Spaniards."

Casparjadai reasoned with the facts, if you want to fight, please go to war yourself, don't drag the government of the Republic of Cuba to accompany the funeral, anyway, I have no money "Just because the government doesn't have money doesn't mean there's no money in society, and San Diego has never been a slum, and it's easy to raise millions of dollars in San Diego if you want to."

Li Mu encouraged Casparhady to unleash his potential.

Li Mu's suggestion is to harbor evil intentions, the so-called "raising" is actually to encourage Casparhadai to scrape the land, as long as Casparhadai and they make the people miserable, then they will completely lose the support of the Cuban people, and then Li Mu wants to find someone to replace them easily, and the wealth they loot will become Li Mu's pocket.

"Raising" Casparhady didn't notice the twists and turns, and seriously thought about whether Li Mu's suggestion was feasible.

"I think it's okay, some time ago, at the most critical juncture, some people didn't want to work together to fight the Spaniards, but to transfer wealth abroad and arrange for their families to evacuate, I think these people are all accomplices of the Spaniards, even if they didn't report to the Spaniards, they also affected the stability of Santiago, so they should pay the price."

Ralitoimbe was not polite, and slashed at his own people with the first knife, and the reason for using it was extremely clumsy.

Fornication with Spaniards The last person to be put on this big hat was Cespedes
