Restart Spain Sun Never Sets

Chapter 54: New Granada and the Ottomans

Just like following in the footsteps of the Spanish conquistadors, after owning Hispaniola, the invasion of Mexico began.

And in New Granada, now the United States of Gran Colombia, a civil war was also breaking out at this time.

Its territory includes modern-day Panama, Colombia, and parts of Brazil and Peru.

This time, the Spanish government issued a formal diplomatic note, and the Spanish ambassador formally held formal talks with the Colombian president.

The current president of Colombia is Aquileo Parra Gomez. The president grew up in a poor family and grew up working as a merchant in the port all the way to the president of Colombia.

The legendary experience does not mean that he has super ability. It seems that he has used all his abilities to do business. He was forced to step down in just two years because he could not deal with the rebels.

Mr. Aquileo, this time I'm here to discuss cooperation with you on behalf of the Kingdom of Spain. Raniere said so, and went straight to the topic after the cold shush.

I don't know what the Ambassador is going to discuss.

The United States of Colombia during this period was not recognized as legitimate by the Kingdom of Spain, and I don't know what to talk about.

Aquileo is elusive.

Actually, this time I came here mainly because the war in Colombia has threatened the safety of our businessmen.

And citizens of the Kingdom of Spain need a safe environment to do business.

Before Raniere could finish speaking, he was rudely interrupted by Aquileo.

Are the Spaniards ready to meddle in our country's internal affairs? It's impossible.

When the powers said this, they generally meant to ask for various privileges, and Aquileo didn't even want to continue talking.

No no, Mr. President misunderstood us. In fact, we want to help your country solve the rebellion, and all we want is a quiet place to invest.

Raniere quickly waved his hand to deny that it would be bad if it was considered to be blackmail.

Help us put down the rebellion? With all due respect, we will never allow Spanish troops to enter our country.

Aquileo was excited, which was more serious than the blackmail just now.

Your Excellency, instead of sending troops to Colombia, we can send a group of officers to help your country train the army, or even sell a batch of weapons at a low price.

What we need is a stable environment for business investment. It is best to sign a contract to ensure the interests and autonomy of our businessmen.

Raniere waved his hand with a wry smile. He has tried his best to guide his goal to business cooperation. This president is afraid that he has a shadow on the Spaniards.

In fact, the recent civil war in our country has made us exhausted. We need stable partners to rebuild the motherland, and Colombia, which is rich in materials, is our key cooperation target.

Your Majesty, you only need to give a little privilege to the Spanish businessman to quell the rebels, make you a hero of Colombia, and thus keep your presidency. I think this will kill two birds with one stone for you, right?

Corruption has never been a term in the 19th century. If you can't buy a person, it's definitely not how noble his character is, but your lack of leverage.

Aquileo mused, giving the Spaniards some privileges that would make it easier to solve the rebellion, make himself a hero of Colombia, and even be re-elected president.

And the contract is not an unequal treaty, which is acceptable to him and acceptable to the citizens.

I agreed, but I have a conditional, of course I will deal with the difficulties of the Spanish businessman.

Aquileo said.

Speaking?

Spanish officers were in charge of commanding the battle, ensuring that the rebels could be dealt with.

No problem at all.

The cooperation between Spain and Colombia has been formally negotiated, and the war of cultural aggression in New Spain and New Granada is ready to be fought.

...

It was almost May when the news reached Alfonso, and it had been almost two months since Alfonso got married.

The domestic railway construction is in full swing, and it is estimated that it will be completed in the next few years. The Moroccan people have gradually turned from the initial hope to the despair of walking dead.

Contrary to the Moroccans, the stores of Miss Coco have been opened in major cities in Spain. Women have taken off their cumbersome long skirts and generally began to try a simple and modern style.

Children also entered the school one after another, and the child labor in the factory gradually disappeared, and in order to make up for the loss of cheap labor, women from the working and peasant class began to enter the factory.

All in all, Spain has begun to gradually recover from the wounds of the war, and even become stronger.

Your Majesty, the Chancellor of the Exchequer Parachides is here.

Howard pushes the door to report that this is a rare visitor.

Let him in.

...

Your Majesty, according to our intelligence personnel, all European countries have begun research on smokeless powder.

And the gunpowder we sell on a large scale, the raw material for compositional analysis in foreign countries, may not be long before this technology will be passed on between European countries.

Paracides said that although smokeless powder is compared with black powder technology, it is like elementary school mathematics compared with high numbers.

But European countries have a complete chemical industry system, and cracking the secret of smokeless powder is hardly a problem.

Palacides, I believe that in the past two or three years, countries will gradually develop weapons that are already equipped with smokeless gunpowder.

But now the smell of gunpowder in the Balkans is strong, and Russia and Turkey are already at war with each other.

What you have to do is to speed up and get large orders. During the two years when we monopolized huge profits, drain their money bags and use them to support domestic development, understand?

The replacement of old and new weapons is inevitable in itself, and in the 21st century, Alfonso's mind is most not lacking in the appearance of all kinds of strange weapons.

He only needs to ask the people below, and naturally someone will make it and put it in front of Alfonso.

My subordinate understands.

Palacides bowed his head, and it seemed that the speed of contact with Ottoman and Russia was a little faster.

The reason why the Russians have been able to endure so far not fighting Osman is that the British support Osman is inseparable.

Article 8 of the Paris Peace Treaty, however, expressly stipulated to ensure the territorial integrity of the Ottoman Empire.

But this does not prevent the Russians from supporting their younger brother. The Balkans are still at war with the Ottomans. Of course, some of them are not countries yet, but only national rebels of the Ottoman Empire.

The new sultan of the Ottomans is mentally ill, there is a massive famine in the base camp of Anatolia, and the rebellions in the Balkans are one after another. The Russians will not miss this opportunity for revenge.
