The contract signed by the Ministry of War and the Far East Company is time-limited. Before the United States completes preparations for war in Spain, the Far East company can trouble the Spanish, but after the United States completes preparations for war, the Far East company must cooperate with the Ministry of War operations. This means that the Far East Company will lose the initiative it won't be able to win. Although this does not seem serious, it will definitely affect the Far East Company's post-war earnings.

In fact, the War Department did this by coincidence. In the original history, the sinking of the "Maine" was the fuse of the American-Western war. Of course, it was later known that the sinking of the "Maine" was completely self-directed and performed by the US government. This not only reminds people of another famous "911", they are very similar.

The reason the War Department will authorize the Far East Company is related to the attributes of the Far East Company. After all, the Far East Company is a private company. Strictly speaking, in this era of promoting "free trade", the US government has no right to interfere with the operations of the Far East Company. Therefore, the Far East Company does not need to make every effort to find an excuse to fight with the Spaniards. This is very important to the War Department. After all, Washington does not want to bomb the warships caused by his hard work. In order to look more realistic, the ship must also There are naval officers and men. In the original history, the "Maine" incident killed 164 people and injured 100 people. If possible, the War Department did not want to spend such a large amount of capital.

Of course, the so-called don't want to be just the tears of a crocodile. If the US government really wants to do anything, it won't care how many people died, how many died in 9/11? The answer is 2,996 people, and these people are all elites qualified to work in Gemini. Although all Jews working in Gemini on that day asked for leave, it was still a huge loss.

It would be much better to have the Far East company. If the Far East company can defeat the Spaniards, then the US government can foster a pro-American government in Luzon. Although this is not the perfect result, it can already be accepted by Washington.

And if the Far East company can't get the Spaniards, then the US government can wage war against the Spaniards under the banner of protecting the interests of American companies. It should be said that for the US government, this is the lowest cost excuse.

"In fact, I suggest that you do n't have to look for other camps. The Spaniards are wary of you, so your existence is no secret. In this case, why not take this opportunity to give the Spaniards an illusion. I have sent to Luzon. With the special team, you can certainly do the same. "Bai Qi gave an unexpected suggestion, but after careful consideration, Steven found that it was in the interests of the Far East Company.

According to the plans of the Far East Company, a war against the Spaniards in Luzon requires at least 5,000 troops to be mobilized. If the possible reinforcements of the Spaniards are to be taken into account, the size of the troops will be further expanded. Small burden, to maintain a unit of this size in Luzon, the monthly cost is about 1.2 million US dollars, although this amount of money is not a large number for Far East shareholders, but if it can save some , Then shareholders will certainly be more satisfied.

"Come, let's make a total and say that we can't borrow your intelligence network-" Steven decided to try it first. It doesn't matter if it's Chengdu or not, anyway, it's only a few hundred people, and the Far East company can still afford it.

"No problem, who makes us friends." Bai Qi is very satisfied. It is in the interest of Ryukyu to intervene in the American war against Spain at this stage. In fact, everyone takes their own needs and can cooperate with each other.

Three days later, a small team of forty was selected, and they will go to Luzon in advance to prepare for the Far East Company's next move.

As the team leader, Jimmy received special attention from Steven.

"We now know that there are many Chinese in Luzon. This is one of the reasons you were identified as the captain. After arriving in Luzon, I asked you to conduct a preliminary investigation of Manila, and you have a special task, if you can, to Find a suitable place to be the forward base of our Far East company. "Steven does not want to rely on everything, if possible, it is most reliable to get a piece of his own place first.

"This is not a problem. Luzon has a lot of islands. We can just find an uninhabited island as a base for advancement, as long as there is fresh water on the island." Jimmy is completely considering the issue from the perspective of the Far East Company. Prerequisites for text trust.

"Then go and find out, it is best to build a pier on the island. There is another problem. I want to remind you that the Ryukyu government has sent a special unit to Luzon in advance. They have made progress now, maybe they have instigated some Luzon. Indigenous uprisings, if we can, we have to control these people. This is crucial. We cannot defeat the Spaniards alone. "Steven thinks more. Ryukyu is now an ally of the United States, although on the surface it is impossible to The US government has turned its face, but in terms of specific interests, the Ryukyu government will certainly not give up, so it must have some precautions.

"Logistics is mainly logistics. As long as we control the logistics, we can control Luzon's troops." Jimmy has a profound understanding of this. At the beginning, it was impossible for Li Mu to control the logistics of the Cuban insurgents. So easily took away the largest piece of cake after the war.

"You don't have to worry about logistics. The Ryukyu government can provide limited support to Luzon. When our next ship comes over, we can provide assistance like Luzon." Steven agrees, if only logistics materials are provided It is best to beat the Spaniards in Luzon, but it is money. Compared with the Ryukyu government, there are more Far East companies.

Indeed, do n't look at Ryukyu as a country, but when it comes to economic strength, all the domestic assets in Ryukyu together may not necessarily have the wealth of Li Mu alone. This is the charm of industry. Since the establishment of Ryukyu, the largest government The source of income is Japan, and the domestic economy has not improved much. I have to say that this is the gap.

A week later, Jimmy and his team successfully arrived in Luzon. Like Austin, Jimmy chose to enter Luzon by smuggling and contacted Austin as soon as possible.

"Haha, brothers of the Far East Company, welcome to Hell, but for us, this is paradise." Austin was very enthusiastic about Jimmy.

The place where Austin and Jimmy met was a small town less than ten kilometers from Manila. Austin had just attacked here. Although the Spaniards were already prepared for them, the Spaniards still did not correctly estimate their combat effectiveness in Austin. Now Austin There are already nearly 1,500 people under their command. All of these 1500 people have passed the vote. They have no retreat and can only follow Austin and the Spaniards.

The cruelty of the Spanish in Luzon is not only reflected in the Chinese. When facing the Luzon indigenous people, the Spanish also showed their cruelty, especially for those indigenous people who dared to resist the Spanish colonial rule. The Spanish are all Killing, absolutely zero tolerance, so these indigenous peoples who have been stained with the blood of the Spanish can no longer be accepted by the Spanish.

Austin did not get enough support from Ryukyu. This can be seen from the equipment under Austin. Only a few people have pistols and shotguns. More people use flintlocks and rifle guns, and even Still others use bows and arrows.

It sounds a bit magical. In fact, in the jungle, bows and arrows are often better than gunpowder weapons, especially in sneak attacks. In the dense forest, the sound of bows and arrows can hardly be heard when the distance is more than 20 meters. Austin's organization A group of people used bows and arrows to attack the Spaniards. The effect was very good.

"Yes, for us, this is paradise, because we can only live in hell." Jimmy looked indifferent, turning a blind eye to the ongoing killing not far away, and there were several locals who did not dare to attack the Spanish. The indigenous people were also killed. In this war, either black or white, no one can walk in the gray area.

"Dude, have you brought any good things? Look at our equipment, it's too rude, if we have enough equipment, I want to attack Manila." Austin was a little disappointed, Bai Qi put more The mind is used in the direction of Sakhalin, and Luzon's support is not great, and he has not even fulfilled his promise to Lin Xianghai.

But it doesn't matter, because the Far East company will join in, the assistance will surely continue, and Bai Qi will definitely not ask Lin Xianghai to explain, anyway, as long as the ultimate purpose can be achieved, Lin Xianghai's requirements are not high, as long as the Chinese can live in Luzon The Far East Company can do much more than that. Looking at the Chinese in the United States, the Chinese in Luzon may have a higher status in the future than the Chinese in the United States.

"Not yet, but even if they are given enough advanced weapons, can they use them?" Jimmy doesn't trust Austin's men. These people don't even have uniform uniforms. Many people are dressed in tattered clothes and are not even worthy of being called flowers, Jimmy. It even saw someone showing half of his butt, and the combat effectiveness of such a unit is indeed worrying.

"Don't worry at all, even if you have good equipment, they will not be given to these people. These people are just consumables. Many of them are not expected to live after the war." Austin was worse than Jimmy imagined.

It sounds cruel. Think of the tragedies of the innocent Chinese. Austin and Lin Xianghai had no reason to let go of these "murderers." They also have original sins. Even if they did not die in the hands of the Spaniards, they would die in the hands of Lin Xianghai and Austin. .

Fortunately, Austin and Jimmy communicated in English. The official language of Luzon in this era was Spanish. No one understood English at all. Otherwise, Austin's men would be rebellious.

"Are you Chinese, right?" Jimmy asked suddenly without a thought.

In the Far East, black hair and yellow skin are no longer the Chinese patent, so Jimmy must first confirm.

"Of course, I went to Ryukyu with General Bai Qi and participated in the Cuban Independence War before." Austin's words gave Jimmy a huge surprise.

"Have you participated in the Cuban War of Independence? It's too-I have also participated." Jimmy immediately found a common language, and the atmosphere suddenly stepped up.

"Really? I have never seen you before. I joined the insurgents in St. Louis." Austin was also pleasantly surprised and had the same experience, but he had never seen it. There was a feeling of tears when the fellow saw the fellow.

"At that time I should be in Guantanamo. When Mr. Riem was going to build the port, I was the port supervisor." Jimmy was enthusiastic and found a Havana cigar from his backpack. Austin could shine with his eyes.

"I miss this taste-" Austin took a big sip and spit it out after half a day of spitting. The expression on his face was intoxicated. Although cigars are common in Havana, New York, only senior officers can enjoy them in Ryukyu. Now, Austin is not enough.

"How many Chinese are you here? Before I arrived, I heard that the Chinese here are miserable. The Spanish here are even more excessive than the Spanish in Cuba." Jimmy raised his teeth when he mentioned the Spaniards.

"It's really too much. The Spaniards impose heavy taxes on the Chinese here, and at the same time instigate the indigenous people to attack the Chinese. If the Chinese resist, the Spaniards will pull their backs-the Chinese here are very disgusted with the Spaniards. Almost every thing I encounter The Chinese want to take revenge on the Spaniards. There are more than 700 Chinese on my side now, and there are more in Manila. The situation is worse, so I am worried now. "Austin's face also gloomed, which happened to happen at this time All the Spanish prisoners not far away were smashed to the ground, Austin resentfully said, "Hang all the corpses so that the Spaniards in Manila know that we are powerful-"

Austin is not a good man. In order to stir up the relationship between the indigenous and the Spanish, Austin will intentionally leave a gap when he arranges the siege and let any part of the Spaniards escape. Because all the early offensives are local indigenous people, even if the Spanish wanted Retaliation will also target the indigenous people first, which may make the Chinese in Manila a little better.

The rules of colonial rule are basically the same. Differentiate and then draw together, pull one faction against another, and find a public enemy in society to transfer the main contradictions, and the colonists can stay out of the business.

Unfortunately, in Luzon, the Chinese are the public enemies set by the Spaniards. If they challenge the indigenous people to persecute the Chinese, the Spaniards can be centered and balanced.

Austin was aiming at this, so deliberately created an illusion that the indigenous people attacked the Spaniards. As long as the Spaniards started revenge, Austin's troops would quickly expand.
