Rebirth of South America as King

Ps: Thank you for the support of Nanyang Empire.

The Bolivian Indians originally produced agricultural products under communal cooperative organizations.

初期 In the early days of independence, the new-generation leader Bolivar respected the production practices of Indians. In terms of national policies, he implemented policies to protect Indians and banned white people from plundering Indian land.

However, after the death of Bolivar, the leaders of Cordillera, who represented the manor owners and mining owners, came to power. They directed the fight against the Indians and began the brutal plunder of Indian land.

After the successful and brutal Melgarejo coup, in order to win the support of the Bolivian manor, the Indians were looted.

In March 1866, he issued a decree stating that all land belongs to the state. If Indians want to legally occupy the country's land, they must register within two months after the promulgation of the decree and pay a small amount of money for Redemption of private land. Those who do not register after the expiry date and have no land certification will be deprived of their land and auctioned publicly.

Indians are lagging behind in production and the property acquired by agricultural labor is not enough to cover the cost of land. As a result, many Indians lose their land because they cannot afford the land.

According to statistics, within one year from the promulgation of the decree, the land of 109 communes in La Paz province was auctioned by the government. The government of Melgarejo obtained a total of 164,000 pounds from this land auction.

This plundering of the Indians' open flames led to fierce Indian resistance. In 1866, when 20,000 Indians launched a riot in the province of La Paz. Although this uprising was eventually suppressed, Melgaret Huo's cruel treatment of the Indians has split the ruling class.

In Bolivia, a large number of military and politicians who believe in Bolivar's political opinions are dissatisfied with Melgarejo's rule. They believe that Melgarejo has abandoned the political principles of equality and freedom of all ethnic groups established during the founding of Bolivar. Action will push Bolivia into the abyss.

暗 The dark tide in Bolivia is turbulent. The arrival of the Chinese Independent Army is like a piece of zeolite thrown into the boiling water, which has intensified the form.

"General Adolfo, we can't let Melgarejo do anything wrong. If he keeps doing this, Bolivia will be over." Bolivian political veteran Frias exclaimed.

The middle-aged man frowned in front of his eyes, and his forehead under the towering military cap exuded light sweat because of the fierce confrontation between the two thoughts in his brain.

The middle-aged man is about 50 years old, with a thin and tall body. He wears a pair of glasses on his eye sockets. If he is not wearing military uniform, it is difficult to associate him with the magnificent general of Bolivia.

"Chinese rebels invaded Bolivia. At this juncture, we must consider the national affairs and not turn our back on Melgarejo."

Adolph considered for a long time, after all, the consideration of national interests prevailed and he said.

Adolfo was not in good health. After Frias originally wanted to overthrow Melgarejo, he told him some secret things, but seeing his current position, Frias decided not to conceal any more and said : "General Adolfo, there are many things that are not as glorious as Melgarejo claimed. He has done too many unsightly things behind us and the Bolivian people. I was afraid that I would tell you these things and hurt me. You have to say it now. "

The confiscation of Indian lands was only known to Adolfo after the government promulgated it. In order to try to make up for the big mistake made by Melgarejo, he and other generals forced Melgarejo to stop the suppression of Indians. , Rescued a large number of Indians, because of this incident, Adolfo's prestige among Indians is very high.

However, Adolfo's intervention caused Melgarejo's extreme dissatisfaction. He excused Adolph from his army and returned to Sucre to serve as an idle general without authority.

Adolph didn't care much about transferring the army. He thought that if he could do something good for the country, his personal honor was not important.

听 But listening to Frias's meaning, it was clear that Melgarhoek's bad thing was more than the confiscation of Indian land.

"You told me all the bad things that Melgarejo did on the ground," Adolph said anxiously.

"According to the Independence Assembly of August 1825, the territorial borders of Bolivia are: from the birthplace of the Abarri River to the confluence of the Madeira in the north, from Todos to Ciucaco to the Salta region in the south; The Madeira, Itene and Paraguay rivers are bounded by the western part of the Pacific Ocean, with a total area of ​​2.363 million square kilometers. "

Adolfo looked at Frias, not knowing what he was doing to introduce the area of ​​Bolivia.

Frias tried to slow down as much as possible so that he didn't get too excited. "In 1863, Atacama discovered new saltpeterite and struvite. Chile declared that Atacama belonged to Chile, and then sent troops to occupy Atacama. horse,

At that time, President De Acha sent people to negotiate with Chile to resolve the dispute peacefully, on the other hand, he was actively preparing for war, and was prepared to use military force if the negotiations were not successful.

However, after President Deacha stepped down, the matter was delayed, and then Melgarejo came to power. His ambassador signed a treaty with the Chileans, gave up his strong position to defend the territory, and delineated an ambiguous line. , Default Chile's actual control of Atacama. "

"Don't Melgarejo claim to reclaim Atakama's sovereignty, and that the mining rights are shared between the two countries?"

"He claimed to reclaim sovereignty, but did the Chileans admit it? And Atacama is controlled by the Chileans. Even if the Bolivians have mining rights, they will not be able to reach Chilean lands!" Frias replied two in succession Broke Adolph's doubt.

Melgarejo acquiesced in the Chilean occupation of Atacama, and also signed a treaty in favor of Chileans. Is it possible that Bolivia wants to regain its territory in the future? Adolph couldn't help thinking about it in his heart.

"Last year, Melgarejo and Argentina signed a treaty that gave the Argentine people a disputed 170,000 square kilometers of land in the south.

Then the Brazilian threatened Melgarejo by force and forced him to sign a treaty to cede to Brazil a total of 100,000 square kilometers of rubber-rich land in Mato Grosso in the east and Acre in the northwest.

In order to deceive the domestic people, Melgarejo claimed that the Brazilians traded the ceded land in exchange for navigation rights on the Columba and the Amazon.

With three treaties, Bolivia has lost at least 370,000 square kilometers of land. In addition to the land under actual control, does Bolivia have a total territory of 2 million square kilometers? "

After speaking of Melgarejo's traitorous treaty, Frias asked back.

Adolph was faint. He never thought that Bolivia had lost so much territory after Melgarejo came to power. Frias wouldn't lie to him, and Adolfo could start his own relationship to confirm these things.

Melgarejo turned himself around, remembering last year he and other generals agreed to grant him the "Imperial Grand Cross", and Adolph's cheeks turned red.

"Melgarejo is a Bolivian sinner and he should be tried by all Bolivian people."

道 Adolf threw off his military cap excitedly, his hands trembling constantly.

"Adolfo, I have sent people to investigate, the Chinese army is not coming to invade Bolivia, they just want to pass through Bolivia by way of way."

Frias calmed Adolph's mood a little bit, and then said, "After the Chinese army entered Bolivia, it was heavily disciplined and there was no looting of civilians, and the Indians in La Paz learned that the Chinese army also helped them. Defeated Balivian's offense. "

"Balivian, like his brother, only knows that it is irresponsible to the country to exploit civilians to satisfy their selfish desires, and to make such people the chief of the military and political affairs in La Paz."

When he mentioned Ballivian, Adolfo hated it.

"Adolfo, Melgarejo is keeping a close watch on us. In the past few days, we must not act lightly. After he leads his troops out of the city, we will leak out his signing of the traitorous treaty, and then join the Chinese army to overthrow his rule. . "

Adolfo was anxious to step down Melgarechola for trial now, but after listening to Frias' analysis, his mood gradually calmed down and he said, "You are responsible for contacting the Chinese army, but you must take responsibility Maintaining the military discipline of the Chinese army cannot allow them to plunder Bolivian cities ~ www.wuxiahere.com ~ There is no army in hand, and Adolph would not be able to overthrow him even if he reveals the nature of Melgarejo's traitorship. If it is really so easy, Eph Rias had already done so.

Therefore, although the use of foreign forces to deal with Melgarejo is not good, Adolph can only accept this choice. ...

The first batch of reinforcements to Kabas had arrived in La Paz. Melgarejo handled some aftercare matters in Sucre, and was preparing to lead the large troops to withstand the attack of the Chinese Independent Army.

"How are things going in Sucre these days?"

Melgarejo was busy with the movement of the army and asked in his seat.

"The president announced that he would personally lead troops to fight the invading Chinese army. The people in the city responded enthusiastically and all supported the president's decision."

Servants please.

"What have Adolph been doing recently?"

"General Adolfo has been staying at home recently, and has done nothing but invite a few general politicians who have no real power to write poems to discuss music."

"Hehe, the dignified general Bolivia, studying poetry and music all day, I think he will change his career as a poet." Melgarejo dismissed.

Although Adolfo was a Bolivian general, he himself considered himself a poet and musician, and had little value for power. In the original history, he became the president of Bolivia for a year, and then resigned as an excuse for illness. Position, focus on poetry and music.

"The president has a generous heart, not only does he not care about General Adolph's collision, but also arranges him in a comfortable position, I believe General Adolph will definitely thank the President."

Melgarejo was in a good mood, and the attendant took the opportunity to slap.

"Forget it, leave him alone, and when you are ready, start tomorrow." Melgarejo relaxed.
