Chapter 83: Great Victory
The Mapuche people were beaten!
It was not the Mapuche people, but Chief Namunguza who led more than a thousand Mapuche people and were beaten by a team of Argentine cavalry!
Now, these Mapuche people, who were reluctant to leave their looted things behind and run away, came running to ask for help!
This request for help made Zhu Xianhai feel complicated!
MMP, don’t you have the awareness of being a robber?
You've been chased and beaten for half a month, but you still love money more than anything else and are unwilling to give it up and run away. If you don't get beaten, who will?
"First, sir, you are the only one who can help us now. If you don't send reinforcements, we will be no match for the gauchos."
Even now, standing in front of Zhu Xianhai, Juan still felt a little weak in his heart. When the steam monster passed over him that day, he was under the wheels, and in the steam heat wave that hit his face, Juan's will had completely collapsed.
It is true that he is a member of the tribe, but he firmly stands on the side of the strong. So who is the strong?
It must be the Chinese who own the steam monster, so when he delivered the letter on behalf of the chief, he explained in detail the current situation they were facing.
Faced with Juan's request for help, Zhu Xianhai's brows were furrowed.
To save or not to save?
This is not a multiple-choice question, but a must-choice question. If this Mapuche tribe is severely damaged, it will not only affect his plan to subjugate the Mapuche people, but also affect his "long-term plan" to use the Mapuche people to bleed the Argentines.
"Juan, you did a great job on this matter, don't worry,"
Zhu Xian patted Juan's shoulder and said.
"We are friends with the Mapuche people, I will definitely help you..."
Although he said it with ease, Zhu Xianhai felt mixed emotions!
Originally, Zhu Xianhai had made up his mind to "grow slowly", but the dramatic changes now told him again and again that plans could never keep up with changes.
Originally, he thought he could stage and take the opportunity to "grow slowly" and accumulate strength. However, the Mapuche people who are now being chased by the Argentine cavalry and have no way to retreat are likely to expose him.
It is even possible that it has been exposed now - the Argentines will learn about the "steam monster" and the existence of Nanhua from the mouths of the prisoners.
In order to survive, the captives would certainly confess valuable information. Moreover, confessing "another powerful 'tribe'" would not only relieve them of psychological pressure, but it might also reduce the pressure on their own families !
If a person does not work for his own benefit, he will be punished by heaven and earth!
Who said that Indians are honest and loyal?
Stand up, I promise not to hit you.
Damn it, each and every one of them is as cunning as a devil!
There is no such thing as a fuel-efficient lamp.
But even so, Zhu Xianhai had to send reinforcements, because the Mapuche people were an indispensable link in his control of the grassland - only with the help of the Mapuche people could he slowly bleed the Argentines.
Slow and continuous bleeding!
Moreover, this is a place where strength is important. Nanhua must show its strength to have the capital to interact with the "simple" Mapuche people, and this strength must be proved with the blood of the Argentines.
"Mobilize the troops!"
When letting Juan go down to rest, Zhu Xianhai said to himself.
"Fortunately, I have already prepared for this day."
In fact, he knew from the very beginning who Nanhua’s biggest enemy was—the Argentines!
Therefore, he had been preparing for this day all along. However, before sending out the troops, he still had to simulate it.
"system!"
"Start the simulator, the simulation time is sixty days..."
The reason for simulating sixty days is more to simulate the impact after "exposure".
[Start simulation.]
[On May 17, 1861, you led a 500-man militia to rescue the Mapuche.]
The light screen flickered and the scene loaded quickly.
…
“Kill!”
"Kill all the white people and protect Nanhua!"
On the grassland, this scene seemed familiar, as well as familiar shouts.
For the first generation of immigrants in Nanhua, the enslavement they once experienced by the white people created an indelible hatred between them and the white people.
Sometimes hatred can only be repaid with blood.
Zhu Xianhai, standing on the carriage, observed the battlefield with a solemn expression, ignoring the surging Argentine cavalry. These gaucho cavalry were different from the Mapuche people who used cold weapons. They used both spears and revolvers.
"do it according to plan!"
Following Zhu Xianhai's order, the South China Self-Defense Force was dispatched.
Faced with the attack of the Nanhua Self-Defense Force, the Gaucho cavalry who were charging on horseback seemed a little confused. They stopped involuntarily and turned to look at their commander.
Major Matolo also seemed a little confused.
He had seen many Mapuche people in his life, and perhaps those people were usually fearless and courageous.
However, their tactics were the same - cavalry charge.
The fearless charge is enough to defeat any small force.
But he had never seen Mapuche people like this.
They are not cavalry!
The most important thing is that these people don’t seem to be dressed like Mapuche people.
Everything about it was just so weird.
When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong!
Major Matolo's heart tightened for no reason and he inexplicably felt a sense of danger.
Later it turned out that his guess was correct.
As soon as the two sides came into contact, defeat was inevitable.
Before Major Matolo could even figure out what tactics the other side was using, he felt the difference of these "Mapuche" people - the sound of gunfire!
Dense rain of bullets surrounded them like raindrops.
They actually have muskets!
And it’s the latest model of Henry rifle!
Bullets fell on them like raindrops. In an instant, hundreds of people fell down. In such an impact, the gauchos with revolvers were no match for them.
They are not Mapuche!
"retreat……"
Major Matolo was extremely decisive and he had no intention of fighting a life-and-death battle with the Mapuche people.
When he led his men to retreat, the enemy chased them again. While fleeing, they were also being chased by Mapuche bullets. After escaping for a long distance, Major Matolo fell to the ground.
He was shot in the back.
An hour later, except for a few who fled, the rest were either shot dead or surrendered.
The South China Army won a great victory, annihilating 500 elite Argentine cavalry without losing a single soldier...
