Although Dong Shutong lacks courage in doing things, he is an extremely careful person.
Even Zhumu feels that her husband is more meticulous in doing things than she is a woman.
Recently, Dong Shutong can only sleep a few hours a day, and he doesn't even have time to spend time with the newborn baby he and Zhu Mu gave birth to.
The most important thing he does every day is to allocate supplies. The data on the seized supplies are summarized in Cusco. If ordinary people see so much account data, they will definitely have a headache.
But Dong Shutong seems to be born with a special sensitivity to accounts. He reads accounts very quickly. He often does calculations mentally and rarely uses an abacus.
Not only can he sort out the accounts, but he can also make unified arrangements according to the needs of various places.
Logically speaking, he does not need to do these things, but Donghua is currently in short supply of talents. Their Donghua country is also a grassroots team. Various institutions are in short supply, and talents who can stand alone are even more in short supply.
Dong Shutong is working so hard now because he knows that only by delivering these supplies to the soldiers in need can they be transformed into combat effectiveness.
After the original white manor was converted into a state-owned farm, many problems arose.
Some former workers felt that they had become masters, and instead became passive and slow in their work.
These phenomena are very prominent among Indians.
So Dong Shutong quickly introduced a reward and punishment mechanism for state-owned farms, and sent several priests to various districts to do ideological work for the Indians.
Most of the Indians are still very hard-working and honest, but some people just have so much psychological change after taking revenge on the white people that it affects their own character.
After overthrowing the white people, they hope to live like the white people.
The original logistics system under white rule was also overturned. Dong Shutong established a transportation company to be responsible for the transportation of important materials.
In addition, commercial activities must be gradually resumed. However, all the white businessmen who were originally there have been taken into custody.
Therefore, Dong Shutong established a state-owned retail system similar to that of the Fuxing Army Supply and Marketing Cooperative.
As for the new business class, when there are more Chinese people in the future, some people can be selected to support them.
The hardworking and shrewd Chinese people will definitely be able to fill the gaps in the Donghua business class.
As for other professional talents, before Donghua’s education system was established, they could only ask their younger brothers for them.
After all, Donghua is also its own industry.
At present, Donghua can only let the state lead the economic operation.
The state uniformly allocates various materials, of course, first of all to meet military needs.
In this way, limited materials can be put to greater use. It can also improve the living conditions of the Indians who originally lived at the bottom.
Through this tangible change, they will support Donghua even more.
After taking Arequipa, Tian Fang began to organize his troops to move north.
The rear militiamen were removed to temporarily guard the cities occupied by the Donghua Army.
The main force was organized by Tian Fang and advanced from south to north along the coastline road.
There is a road connecting the north and south along the coast. And there are flat areas along this road.
It can be said that the Peruvian white army has no danger of defending on this road.
Moreover, the Peruvian government army is now massed in Lima. There is no decent army on the southern route at all. How can it be enough to withstand the attack of the Donghua Army heading north with the power of victory?
"Is the fleet ready?" Tian Fang asked a young staff officer next to him.
After occupying the southern port, the Donghua Army finally opened up external connections.
At the same time, they also captured some white Peruvian merchant ships anchored in the port. Originally, the authorities were still worried that there were only ships without people driving them.
However, in the port city they took over, a Chinese merchant fleet was stranded here.
After discussion, the Chinese captains agreed to serve the Donghua Army first and handed over the captured Peruvian merchant ships to this Chinese merchant fleet.
"Commander, the fleet is ready and can set off at any time. This fleet can transport two regiments at a time."
"There are some dangers on the road, so we can only travel at night, otherwise the Peruvian fleet will discover it. The self-defense force on their ship is simply not enough." A staff officer reported back.
"That's okay. It doesn't matter if you go slower. It's just a surprise move." Tian Fang rarely uses risk.
But that doesn't mean he won't take risks.
When he got the news that the army from northern Peru was moving south, he realized that this was a rare opportunity.
The coastal plain area west of the Andes Mountains is the main settlement area of whites. The towns here are basically built along the seaside.
In these cities of different sizes, the main population is also white and mixed race.
There are relatively few Indians here.
The important northern city of Chiclayo has always been outside the control of the Corinho family.
This time, in order to suppress the rebellion in Donghua, the current head of the family gathered the northern army, and most of the troops were led southward by the future heir of the family, Corinho Jr.
This will inevitably create a void behind them.
If, at this time, Donghua could send a surprise force over, I believe he would be able to get twice the result with half the effort.
When the Donghua Army moved north along the coastline, the Peruvian army gathered in Surco also began to attack eastward.
However, they were blocked by the remaining Donghua Army in La Oroya.
The two sides fought very fiercely!
However, the number of Donghua troops here is small. They face the tens of thousands of troops assembled by the Peruvians.
The battle was also very hard.
The Peruvian government forces have a great advantage in the number of artillery.
Later, the Donghua Army, which was fighting defensively here, could only withdraw its artillery to the rear.
Fortunately, the officers of the Donghua Army knew how to dig anti-artillery trenches. Facing the attack of the Peruvian Army's artillery, which mainly used solid bullets, simple trenches could achieve good results.
They could hide in the trenches and shoot at the enemy. Coupled with the narrow bridge deck, they could barely block the crazy attack of the government troops.
The volunteer army composed of Lima citizens became the main force of the attack at this time.
General Rothschild used these people as cannon fodder.
At the beginning, these people were very powerful.
However, after attacking Donghua Army's bridgehead for a period of time, the corpses of these people gradually piled up on the bridgehead.
After all, they were civilians and could no longer endure the bloodshed on the battlefield.
Many civilian volunteers have begun to resist this endless fearless charge.
The Peruvian government army's offensive has been going on for several days, but other than consuming some of the Donghua Army's troops, it has not accomplished anything.
"The idea is to inspect the surrounding riverbanks to prevent the enemy from sending small groups of troops from upstream and downstream. Also, have the explosives been installed?" The tactics used by the Donghua Army themselves naturally meant that they had to be prepared.
Zhu Mu also put on a green military uniform at this time. In fact, she didn't like the Queen's dress at all. On the contrary, the Donghua Army's military uniform was more comfortable to wear.
"Reporting to the queen, everything has been installed. But do you really want to blow up the bridge?" asked the young Chinese officer.
This bridge was not easy to build.
If the bridge is blown up, they will have trouble fighting back in the future.
"Just in case, the government troops are coming this time. We don't have enough troops here for the time being, and we can't defend every point. If we have to, we will blow up the bridge. This line
There is no need to deploy so many troops," Zhumu said.
After she returned to Donghua City, news came back that the Lima authorities had organized a large army to launch an attack.
Zhumu, who had just arrived at Donghua City, rushed to the front line of La Oroya before he had time to take a rest.
In the entire north, fighting is currently taking place on this front.
This was not the only route used by the Lima authorities to attack Donghua.
They could cross the Andes from the north and then go south from Huanuco to Lake Junin.
You can also march south from La Montaña and attack the Donghua Army's Hedong area first.
So Jomu actually has three lines to defend.
The western front is being defended now, and the northern front should not be a big problem, because when Donghua City was built, permanent defenses were built on the northern front.
It is very difficult for the enemy to break through from the northern line. The terrain in the mountains there is typical of one man being able to pass the barrier and ten thousand others not being able to open it.
As for the eastern front, when Dong Shutong went south, he left a large number of troops to garrison.
The problem is that the Donghua Army's local rule is not strong enough.
Even the liberated Indians could not guarantee their loyalty.
Many Indians have been ruled by white people for too long and are very servile.
It cannot be changed in a short time.
Of course, the main battlefield should still be on the western front. Lima's army marched eastward, and its nearest passage was here.
As long as the passage on the La Oroa road can be opened, the troops of the Lima authorities can penetrate directly into the rear of the Donghua Army.
Lima, presidential palace.
"Your Excellency, the latest news from the south." Minister of Interior Balanzuela came to the presidential palace again.
"What's the news?" Jose asked.
"General Rustu in the south was defeated!" Balanzuela said in frustration.
"What, how could Rustu be defeated so quickly when he was guarding a strong city like Arequipa and had tens of thousands of troops in his hands? Are those Donghua troops all divine soldiers and generals? They are just a group of
It’s just Chinese workers and Indians who have just been armed.” Jose was obviously stunned by the news.
How could Rustu's side be defeated so quickly? If that were the case, Lima wouldn't be able to stop these people for long.
"General Rustu has lost contact. There is news that he took the remaining men of his men to Chile." Balanzuela continued. This was obviously another piece of news that shocked Jose.
"This traitor! Is he going to defect to Chile?" Jose slammed the documents in his hands on the table.
The relationship between Peru and Chile has never been good. Chile often bullies Peru because of its powerful navy.
In addition, both countries covet Bolivia's coastal areas.
"This is not clear yet, but the Donghua Army has begun to move north along the coastline after defeating General Rustu. Our troops on the southern front are empty, allowing them to take advantage of the loophole. This Donghua Army is obviously heading for Lima.
Yes." Balanzuela said.
I originally thought that with General Rustu guarding the south, there would be no problem.
Even if the Donghua Army cannot be stopped, it should be able to delay it for a while.
But Rustu's sudden defeat disrupted Jose's original plan.
He originally planned to hold back the Donghua Army in the east, and then asked General Corinho to take the troops transferred from the north to take a detour and go straight to the east of the Donghua Army.
Now it seems that this plan can no longer be implemented.
Now he can only put his main force south of Lima to fight the Donghua army from Arequipa.
Lima City Chinatown.
"Dongxu, something is wrong now. There have been more and more white people snooping on Chinatown in the past two days." Cai Qiming called Zhang Dongxu again.
One of them is a diplomat and the other is an intelligence chief. They are basically the ones doing the talking here.
"Yes, it seems that the Peruvian government is going to take action. I wonder how the progress is in Donghua, and where is the fleet?" Zhang Dongxu has no idea now.
The whole of Lima has basically been sealed off, and Chinatown is equivalent to an isolated island.
They were surrounded by white people. The Indians were basically locked up.
Fortunately, Donghua sent envoys and used the white men in their hands as a threat, so these white men did not continue to attack the Indians.
"How many combatants can we organize now?" Cai Qiming asked again.
"There are probably more than two thousand people, and about half of them are still piglets that were trafficked before. These people lack training and their fighting ability is not very good." Zhang Dongxu said with some worry.
"Let's make it clear to these people, now is the time when lives are at stake. If everyone doesn't die, not only themselves, but also their wives and children will be at the mercy of others," Cai Qiming said.
"Mr. Minister, everyone should be able to understand these principles, but where the combat power is, we just don't know how long it can last. We now have to find a way to get in touch with the outside world." Zhang Dongxu is in the intelligence business, but he is also talking to
Contact outside has been cut off.
Neither of them had any better options, so they seemed to have no choice but to wait for fate.
On the sea, the fleet is still advancing, and the original visits to several Latin American countries have been put on hold.
The Nanyang Navy headed directly for Lima. In order to gain time, they even reduced unnecessary supplies.
Liu Dahai was worried about the safety of Dong Shutong and the Chinese in Peru.
His emotion was also transferred to the entire fleet.
"Let the sailors hold on, our compatriots will be in danger at any time in Peru." Liu Dahai couldn't help but remind the people in the fleet again.
"Don't worry, Commander, our soldiers all understand that this time everyone heard that there may be another battle to be fought, and they are all holding back their energy!"
Tianfang on the southern front attacked the city and captured the territory, and continued to advance towards Lima in the north.
But the further north you go, the more intense the enemy's resistance becomes.
In many towns in the north, basically all white people were organized, and some white women even took up guns to fight against the Donghua Army.
Under the propaganda of the Peruvian government, the Donghua Army has become a bandit who massacres white people.
Therefore, the resistance of the white people was very fierce.
Tian Fang was not polite, and even issued orders to massacre some cities that resisted too fiercely.
This completely aroused the blood of the Donghua Army. They transformed from a group of peasant soldiers into real warriors.
Only blood and fire can change a warrior.
