Historically, war has been a catastrophic disaster for many people who have no experience at all. This situation also applies to the vast majority of farmers who are not even considered militiamen and are temporarily pulled onto the battlefield to serve as cannon fodder.

In terms of armed force, compared with farmers like them who have only touched farm tools, the government troops and police forces in Chihuahua City can be called professionals, and at least they have fired guns.

The local vested interests were alert and did not let the most important weapons fall into the hands of the enemy. Compared with the peasant army armed with old-fashioned shotguns and unknown weapons, the defenders were well-trained and had sufficient weapons.

However, facing the farmers who make up the vast majority of the population in Chihuahua, many defenders are still unsure whether they can suppress them. Without external assistance, the defenders will face only

will get bigger and bigger.

With the concentration of land in Mexico, they want to achieve the balance desired by the hacienda owners, but there are not enough guns and ammunition. They hope to have more efficient weapons. Of course, such weapons exist. Dirk across the river

Sars, where Allied's mustard gas is stored.

It's just that Sheffield, who doesn't like this little profit, has never been prepared to use it. In Sheffield's mind, this kind of weapon will either be used on a grand enough battlefield, such as a world war. Whatever it is, it will be used in it.

As the most threatening enemy, no one can replace the important position of Yang Ji in his heart.

The 9.5 million landless peasants in Mexico escaped disaster because of the slave owners' high standards of valuing their fellow racers. But how many 9.5 million people are there? This is a very serious question. If

European and American standards may be quite high, but in Eastern thinking, this is not an unimaginable number.

Rodriguez's troops assembled faster than anyone imagined. This was not a hero emerging from troubled times, but from the United States on the other side of the river, the United Company handed over hundreds of trucks to Rodriguez's armed forces.

.

From this point of view, Sheffield is definitely the strong backing of reactionaries around the world. It spent so much money from the beginning. Among the giants of monopoly capitalism, such sincerity is very rare.

But this is just one time for conscience. Sheffield also wants to see how good Rodriguez is through this fight. There are many people who feel good about themselves before the fight. Li Chengwan just looks at his strength on paper.

, Diem is still full of confidence.

If Rodriguez had shown his potential as a transportation captain in the first battle, Sheffield could have stopped his losses in time and not wasted precious productivity in a bottomless pit, looking for reactionaries who have grown through the flames of war to act as agents.

On the outskirts of Chihuahua, Rodriguez, who was wearing a Mexican government army sign, had arrived at the battlefield. The supporting troops behind him also gave him confidence. He saw from the slave owners the idea of ​​​​going all out from the beginning, and he brought it out this time.

The armed forces of the Tagore family can be said to be the essence of the Tagore family. Although there are only more than 5,000 people, they are very trustworthy. This armed force is indispensable for the Tagore family to be able to dominate and dominate Coahuila.

The lives of these large estate owners in the northern states of Mexico are actually very similar to those of the southern estate owners before the Civil War. Although these families have no slaves in name, this is a good concept in name. In fact, as long as the gap between the rich and the poor is too large,

It doesn't matter whether you are a slave or not, most people will live the same life as slaves.

Rodriguez's personal armed force is called the Rural Patrol. After Díaz came to power, he recruited bandits and used them as police to maintain local security. This kind of Rural Patrol. The method used by the Rural Patrol to maintain law and order is called the Escape Law.

.They can kill innocent people at will. There is no reason for killing, just that the arrested person is trying to escape. The bandits have become official bandits. On the surface, the country is peaceful, but the peasants have been harmed by the mounted patrols. In Dia

During Sri Lanka's rule, tens of thousands of peasants were killed by the guns of mounted patrols.

Rodriguez led Coahuila's rural mounted patrol team out, first intimidating Coahuila itself. Then he quickly rushed to Chihuahua, a neighboring state. As for the security of Coahuila,

Someone can do it for you.

Torreon is an important city in northern Mexico. Located on the banks of the Nasas River at the southwestern end of Coahuila State, it is an important center of Coahuila State's famous Laguna cotton area. There are copper, lead, zinc, and silver mines and industries nearby.

Mainly engaged in steel, non-ferrous metallurgy, chemistry, textiles and flour. The surrounding area is rich in cotton, wheat, fruits and livestock. It is a railway and highway hub.

Now a group of people with two-color armbands have appeared in the city. These people are the armed forces of the Black Gold Company. When Rodriguez went out to fight in peace, as a neighbor with only a narrow strip of water, Sheffield sent his own personal strength to help maintain order.

, one consequence of this is that Zhang Yintang may not have the opportunity to blackmail Mexico for 3.1 million silver dollars.

"The environment here is similar to that in my hometown!" Two members of the Black Gold Company were walking with guns and chatting. So far, nothing unusual has happened in Torreon.

"Don't you know, Texas and this place were once a state, and then Texas became independent." Another man who looked a little more mature replied, "The rest of this area is called Coahuila.

State."

When Mexico became independent, it was the same state as Texas, called Coahuila-Tejas, and the latter became the Republic of Texas. The employees who asked this question before clearly knew nothing about this situation, and some

Regretfully, he said, "Why not annex this place too? I think this place is no different from Texas. After annexation, the area of ​​our state will be larger."

"Who knows what the federal government was thinking at the time, we just thought we were here for a vacation." The latter said with a relaxed expression, "I think this city is actually quite good. If things go well with Rodriguez, there won't be any problems here.

Is there any danger? Go to Chinatown and have a look. Some silversmiths have good skills. When you complete the task and go back, bring some jewelry back. Maybe my woman will be very happy."

"You should really go and see it. At least the Chinese people don't look uncomfortable like the locals." The young man who had just started the conversation frowned and nodded in agreement.

The battle on the outskirts of Chihuahua City has begun. When the shells exploded among the people who still didn't know how to dodge, and the heat flow of death and fragments were tumbling and flying on the ground, what followed was besides the constant sound of

There were rumbling explosions and all kinds of screams.

Rodriguez's armament also brought along the artillery that was transported. The history of this batch of artillery can be said to be quite long. It originated from the Spanish-American War more than ten years ago and was used as a combat weapon provided by the United Company for the Army.

The Army of the United States only has 30,000 people, so the number of such artillery is not large, but it is well maintained, because the expeditionary force of 20,000 people just landed from Cuba, and the Spanish army of 300,000 surrendered, and many of the artillery have never been fired.

Completely new.

Now in a Spanish-speaking environment, these artillery pieces that should have been put to use more than ten years ago have finally found a place to be used. Rodriguez is actually not too worried about the supply problem because there is river transportation to support it.

.He knew that the Sheffield family originally focused on river transportation in order to avoid being blackmailed by the railroad giants of the United States, and built many docks and many ships on the main stream and tributaries of the Mississippi River.

The boundary river between Mexico and the United States not only exists in the state of Coahuila, but also in the north of Chihuahua. With such confidence and frequent communication between the two sides, he finally followed Sheffield's advice and made a bold move

Attack action.

Rodriguez held a telescope and observed the shelling effect on the opponent's position. He saw the shells falling to the ground and exploding. What rose up in the telescope was not only the column of fire and smoke, but also the various bodies of these people.

Fragments and blood were flying, and in his sight, a lucky man among the unlucky ones was unscathed among a group of soldiers.

However, this lucky guy was petrified by the sight in front of him, because the other partner had lost his life, and a large gash in his neck was cut by a metal fragment that was constantly spurting out blood, and on his face,

Splattered with spray of blood.

"Well, it's not bad!" Rodriguez put down the telescope, reached out and patted the feet wearing riding boots twice. He was obviously very satisfied with the effect of this round of bombardment. "What are these rogue criminals doing if they don't work hard?"

As long as I live, I always want to bring huge turmoil to the country."

Just as Rodriguez was speaking, the second wave of shelling fell again in just a few seconds. Taking advantage of the peasant army's position to breathe a sigh of relief, it was caught off guard.

"Mr. Rodriguez, are you satisfied with the support we provide?" John Connor asked with a smile, "United Company is very concerned about the security of border states. If you can maintain order near the border, we will

The boss will definitely be very grateful, and the arrival of peace on your side will also benefit our side."

"Maintaining peace and order in Mexico is my greatest wish. Having a neighbor like William is a lucky thing." It may be that the effect of the artillery is gratifying, and Rodriguez seems to be in a good mood.

"Yes, for the sake of peace and order, some measures are unavoidable." John Connor replied with great agreement, "Mr. Rodriguez can restore local order as soon as possible, because fewer people will die in the turmoil. Our boss
