Chapter 1103 For the sake of the common people, let us surrender (third update, please subscribe)
Boom!
Like everyone else, Aniseto Arce, who was attracted to the window by the low roar of the engine in the air, stared at the airship above the city dumbfounded, and his mind was full of questions.

"Oh my God!"

No one agreed to him. At this moment, everyone went to the window. People stared at the airship dumbfounded. What did they see?
It's questions, it's confusion, and it's fear.

"Big, the Ming Empire is here, here it is..."

Aniseto Arce, the vice-president of Bolivia, was dispelled by the blimp in the air.

What was the first thought that flashed in his mind at this moment?
Now that Hilarion Daza was defeated, what next?
Although he is the first vice president of Bolivia, he is not just a politician. He is also the owner of Bolivia's largest Huanchaca mining company.

More than 20 years ago, Arce, who was already a member of Congress, bought the nearly bankrupt Huanchaca Mining Company for 40000 Bolivian pesos. At that time, the company had invested 18 pesos in the construction of mining infrastructure, but failed to give the company an equity stake. After Arce acquired the Huanchaca Mining Company, he continued to operate the Polk Mine in Potosí Province that belonged to the company, and soon injected enough funds to make the company operate. In 1856 From 1861 to 30, Arce invested more than [-] pesos to purchase modern machinery and equipment, introduce drainage equipment, and build shafts for silver mines. Since then, the company's business has become increasingly prosperous, especially when it is free to export silver to the international market. Huanchaca once became one of the largest mining companies in Bolivia, and Arce himself became the first millionaire in Bolivia, one of the most powerful mining owners in Bolivia, and a veritable "king of mining". .

Business success leads to career, no, for Aniseto Arce, a congressman himself, business success has helped his career success, and last year President Daza appointed him first vice president.

And when the first vice president stared at the airship dumbfounded, what flashed in his mind was——President Daza failed, what should we do now?
Waiting online, very anxious.

As a businessman and as a politician, Aniseto Arce is a standard realist.He understands what the rules of this world are: it is purely a jungle, and the principle followed in this jungle is that the weak prey on the strong.

And he himself is a jaguar in this jungle. In the past, when he bit his prey, he was always merciless, but now?

He found himself turned into a prey, and he was likely to be bitten by many people without leaving a bone, because he knew very well what would happen after the conqueror came.

Potosi Silver Mine!
A fat piece of meat for any intruder.Those invaders or the mining companies of the Ming Empire must have described the silver mines in Potosi on his territory. Aniseto Arce has no doubts about this. He is in Chile, Argentina, and Brazil. There are friends, what kind of results did his friends encounter?

Those friends of his lost their fields, their mines, their... even their lives.

Perhaps what happened to them is sympathetic, that's all.

For him, this is how the world works.

The weak eat the strong!

In this world, all people and things follow this principle, and if they violate this principle, they will be eliminated.

"What now?"

Staring at the airship in the sky.

"Fortunately, I... only have one daughter!"

In an instant, Aniceto Arce made a decision in his mind, his beard raised slightly, and then he walked out resolutely.

As soon as he walked out, he felt the chaos in the presidential palace. People were running back and forth in panic, and everyone had an expression on their faces, shock and fear.

"Where is the Chancellor? Where is the Chancellor?"

Aniceto Arce asked where the justices were because the Supreme Court justice Pedro José Domingo Guerra was appointed by President Daza to act on his behalf while he was away. acting president.

It was a custom in the Spanish era to use the justice as the acting president. In the Spanish era, the official government ranked first was the governor, and the second was the justice.They also kept this tradition after the colonies became independent.

Soon, Aniseto Arce came to the president's office, where Pedro José Domingo Guerra, several military officers and ministers were standing by the window, all of them were watching with concern. Looking out the window, watching those airships.

"Vice President, you came at the right time, what should we do now?"

Pedro Jose Domingo Guerra said nervously.

"The Ming people are here, not only the airship, but also their army. Their army is entering the city and will soon arrive at the presidential palace. President Dasa may have been defeated, and he may even be captured... "

Guerra's words stunned Aniceto Arce.

"My God...how, how, how could it be so fast..."

The failure was not an accident, after all the Ming Empire was so powerful, but no one thought it would be so fast, even the president only left here for only a day.

Is this war?
This is not war as they know it.

"My God, is this the end of Bolivia?"

When Aniceto Arce heard Guerra's words, he then looked thoughtfully at the acting president, who many years ago, when he was Bolivia's plenipotentiary representative in Lima, Peru, proposed that Bolivia should be united with the Brazilian Empire, Peru , Chile, Ecuador and the Republic of New Granada (Colombia) and other South American countries form the American Union.

And when the Ming Empire was rising, he also actively promoted the Peru-Bolivia Federation, trying to unite the forces of the two countries to resist the threat of the Ming Empire.

But in the face of absolute strength, this federation didn't even have any power to fight back. It was defeated so thoroughly and so quickly.

"Mr. Acting President, my friend, we have failed, I think, and we should face reality..."

Aniceto Arce walked up to the acting president and said.

"I think we must now consider the safety of the citizens of Sucre. If the airships of the Ming Empire bomb the city, it will definitely cause extremely heavy casualties."

"Mr. Vice President, are you talking about surrender?"

Gera said loudly.

"We need to think about the people here, and now that the military has lost, let's face it, Mr. Acting President, we still have a chance to end this with dignity."

Aniseto Arce looked out the window, although he could not see the troops of the Ming Empire yet, he seemed to have heard the sound of their military boots.

"We can prepare an agreement before they arrive, requiring them to guarantee everyone's property and personal safety! If surrender can protect the safety of citizens, then I think surrender is also acceptable."
