"Gentlemen, what position should we take now? Should we support Argentina or not ask?" President Alfonso Pena asked. Whether it is support Argentina or maintaining neutrality, this will have arisen for Brazil's future.
A huge impact. Therefore, even if Alfonso Pena is the president, he must listen to everyone's opinions widely!
"His Excellency President, I think we should support Argentina and declare war on Chile, just like we united against Paraguay decades ago! The Chileans have great ambitions, and after they defeat Argentina, it's our turn next
!” Foreign Minister Mullen said first!
"Yes, Your Excellency the President! The Chileans now have the support of the Chinese. Unless China is defeated, the Chileans' ambitions will be endless!" said Navy Minister Nelson.
"Secretary Patrick, what about your opinion?" asked President Alfonso Pena.
"His Excellency President, I also support the declaration of war on Argentina! However, we are not ready for war yet. If we declare war on Chile, I can guarantee that the Chilean navy, which is at the mouth of the La Platre River, will definitely go north.
Attack our navy. In addition, the army also needs time to assemble and mobilize, and prepare combat supplies. Therefore, my opinion is to declare war on Chile after a period of time, let Chile and Argentina fight for a while, and to gain enough for us
Time. I think Argentina may not be Chile's opponent. But it will take some time for Chile to defeat Argentina on land!" said Army Secretary Patrick!
President Alfonso = President Pena nodded. Brazil has always regarded itself as the largest country in South America. Although Brazil is also a weak country on the world stage, it is a well-deserved boss in a poor place in South America. Brazil does not want to be now.
The situation in South America has been changed, to be precise, it means that there is no hope of a country that can threaten Brazil. Therefore, if Chile wants to rise, Brazil will definitely suppress it. The only thing that worries Brazil is China standing behind Chile
Now!
"So, from now on, the army and the navy will start to prepare for combat! As for when to declare war on Chile and when to join the war, we will see the specific situation!" said President Alfonso Pena.
At this moment, the secretary of the Presidential Palace walked into the conference room and whispered a few words in President Alfonso Pena's ear, but President Alfonso Pena's face changed in an instant!
"His Excellency the President, what happened?" Foreign Minister Mullen asked.
"Chile demands Argentina surrender, Argentine President Jose Figueroa Alqueta refuses to surrender. The angry Chilean navy bombarded Buenos Aires and caused huge casualties to Argentina. The Argentine president and cabinet members
We have all fled Buenos Aires. And the President of Argentina has issued a declaration to fight to the end!" said President Alfonso Pena!
"O God! These cruel Chileans actually opened fire on civilians. This is simply a devil's act!" Foreign Minister Mullen said in shock. He seemed to have forgotten that during the Paraguay War decades ago, he was encircled and suppressed.
When the Paraguayan guerrillas were in the Paraguayan army, their Brazilian army did not kill the Paraguayans less, which directly caused 85% of Paraguayan's population to die in the war!
Mullen's words did not match, because the other people's faces were already very bad!
"His Excellency Nelson, is our Navy capable of protecting us from safety?" asked President Alfonso Pena.
"His Excellency President, I have to admit that the Chilean Navy is much stronger than us. Today, the Chilean Navy's combat against the Argentine Navy can be seen that at present, we cannot defeat the Chilean Navy!" Nelson said. Although the Brazilian Navy is not
Wu also ordered four advanced battleships from the United States. However, the crushing defeat of the Argentine Navy has given them a lesson!
"His Excellency the President, we must carefully consider whether we will declare war on Chile! If we are involved in the war, we may have to be prepared to evacuate the residents of coastal cities!" said the Secretary of Army Patrick!
"Can those Chileans launch attacks on our coastal cities?" Foreign Minister Mullen widened his eyes!
"There is nothing impossible! Since they dare to shell Buenos, they dare to shell Rio de Janeiro!" said Navy Minister Nelson!
"His Excellency Muren, if you reply to the Argentine ambassador, we still need to think carefully!" said President Alfonso Pena. Obviously, after the Chilean Navy shelled Buenos Aires, Brazil was a little afraid of being attacked by the rats.
.
The Brazilian Navy obviously cannot resist the Chilean Navy. Once Brazil joins the war, the Chilean Navy also shells Brazil's coastal cities, then Brazil's losses will be great. For Argentina, it will cause great disaster.
It is very unprofitable for Brazil!! All the purified areas of Argentina and Brazil are almost within the range of the navy's naval guns. Therefore, they have to consider it carefully!
"Yes, Your Excellency the President, I understand! But are we just standing by and watching? Without our help, it would be difficult for Argentina to defeat Chile's invasion. Once Argentina is defeated and Chile, whose ambitions are rapidly expanding, will definitely be sold to us.
!” Foreign Minister Mullen said!
"We all know this! But I am the president of Brazil, and I must first consider it for the interests of Brazil!" said President Alfonso Pena! Obviously, the Brazilian Navy can protect Brazil from the threat of the Chilean Navy.
Previously, President Alfonso = President Pena could not make a decision on whether to participate in the war!
That night, Brazilian Foreign Minister Mullen conveyed President Alfonso Pena's decision to the Argentine ambassador to Brazil. This decision made the Argentine ambassador very hopeful. When the news came back to Argentina, the Argentine government was also shocked.
If Brazil does not participate in the war, it will be very difficult for Argentina to defeat Chile if the navy is defeated. Therefore, Argentine President Jose = Figueroa = Arqueta ordered Foreign Minister Kim to go to Rio de Janeiro in person.
, convince Brazil to join the war against Chile!
Chile also has its own source of information in Brazil. After learning about the decision of Brazilian President Alfonso Pena, Chile breathed a sigh of relief. It is the best thing for Chile to avoid fighting against Brazil.
After all, Brazil's population is 7 times that of Chile and its economic strength is more than three times that of Chile. If Brazil is determined to go to war with Chile, it will be very difficult for Chile to win! Fortunately, the Navy is in Bueno
The shelling of S'Alis completely shocked Brazil. This was undoubtedly an unexpected surprise for Chile. Compared with the trouble caused to Chile by shelling Buenos Aires, the
The benefits are too great!
Chilean President Erasuris immediately ordered the army to prepare for combat as soon as possible, defeat Argentina in one fell swoop, and end the war. President Erasuris seems to have seen the dawn of victory, and he has even planned again to defeat Argentina.
, What territory should Argentina be asked for? Chile is still coveting the fertile land in the eastern Andes. Chile has a small territory, and many of them are deserts and Gobi, which has seriously hindered the development of Chile. If it can
If you acquire a fertile territory east of the Andes, it will be of great benefit to improving Chile's national strength!
If Chile wants to become a major South American power, it must increase its domestic population and obtain a wider territory, which is also imperative. Among the surrounding neighbors, Argentina is the best target for Chile. Therefore, Chile invaded Argentina,
This is inevitable!
After the war between Chile and Argentina broke out, the world's attention was also focused here. Especially the United States, which has always regarded America as its backyard, cannot tolerate China's support for South America. In the eyes of the United States, this is undoubtedly China's response.
The US provocation, even China is planning to invade the US. This can be seen from China's acquisition of naval bases in Colombia and Ecuador and China's subversion of the Mexican government. Therefore, the US is very concerned about this war.
On the evening of July 24, the US ambassador to Argentina visited the Argentine President. Argentine President Jose = Figueroa = Arqueta confessed to the US ambassador the problems encountered in Argentina. The US ambassador to Argentina immediately stated that
The United States will provide support to Argentina as much as possible. For example, the United States will provide Argentina with equipment of 10 infantry divisions so that Argentina can use to resist Chile's invasion. At the same time, the United States will also exert its influence on whether Brazil will participate in the war.
Strength! And all this is exactly what the Argentine government wants to see!
Rio de Janeiro, late at 11 o'clock on July 24, a carriage entered the presidential palace. The carriage was from the US Embassy in Brazil. The US Ambassador to Brazil Zachley was sitting in the carriage. He had just received it from the United States.
Orders from the country demanded that he persuade Brazil to declare war on Chile. For this reason, the United States will provide great support to Brazil!
"Ambassador Zachley, good evening!" Brazilian President Alfonso Pena smiled after seeing the US Ambassador to Brazil. After China began to support Chile, the relationship between Brazil and the United States was also the same
It is developing rapidly!
"His Excellency President, I'm sorry for being so late and still disturbing you!" Ambassador Zachley said apologetically!
