Chapter 120 Huagong is here (third update, please subscribe)
The news that the opposition had reached an agreement with the Mapuche to withdraw troops and formed an interim government in Chillan immediately caused waves in Santiago. The panicked people finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Well, the Indians withdrew.

They no longer had to worry about the barbaric Mapuche coming in and taking their property, taking their women, and burning down their houses.

Even the priests in the church finally don't have to be as frightened as they used to be.

Oh, God!
Those savages have finally gone back, and there is no need to worry about them dividing the fields and beating priests.

Molesting boys and insulting girls is just the slander of barbarians, and it is not true at all.

Now that the barbarians are no longer invading, everyone can live a peaceful life in peace.

God bless.

Well done to those guys at Chillan!
Of course, the new President Perez in the presidential palace was furious when he heard the news.

"Damn it, those traitors, they actually formed a provisional government? They are simply a group of clowns, a group of traitors, do they think I don't know what they have done?"

"They must have reached a traitorous agreement with the Indians. Those guys should all be hanged!"

Perez's anger is justifiable, because he knows what he will face next-civil war!
A civil war that does not know when it will end.

Originally, with the efforts of Monte and him, they managed to reorganize an army and use the invasion to arouse people's patriotism, but now, everything is over!

The Mapuche retreated.When they left, they left Chile with an interim government — one that opposed Santiago.

"Maybe, we can negotiate with them!"

Before the staff could finish speaking, Perez looked at him like an idiot.

"Negotiation? How to negotiate? Calvary is a businessman at all. He not only regards money as his life, but also regards power as his life. Last time, he was able to launch an uprising for the seat of the parliamentarian. This time, as the so-called "President" "Even if Chile is turned into a sea of ​​flames, he will not give up the presidency!"

After sighing, Perez couldn't help but said.

"God, who the hell let that guy Calvary see the opportunity to cooperate with the Mapuche! Damn it, doesn't he know that such a guy will destroy Chile?"

……

In Pérez, it is obvious that he complained about the wrong person, because it was not "he" but "she" who recommended Calvary.

At this time, Maria Rickmel, who was wearing a blue-gray military uniform, was following Zhu Xianhai on the way back to Araucania. Along the way, she followed him like an ordinary officer.

A few days later, they finally arrived at the destination of the trip - Saavedra Bay. At this time, Saavedra Bay has two more wooden trestles. Near the simple port, rows of grass The shed was full of Chinese laborers rescued from the guano island.

In the past two months, these Chinese workers have been receiving military training in the port area. Although it was only a simple military posture and formation training, the training in just two months has also brought about obvious changes in their temperament.

When Maria came to the port area with Zhu Xianhai, her beautiful eyes were filled with disbelief when she saw the army being trained.

"This, is this your army?"

"Army in training!"

"Yah, ya..."

Although the pronunciation of their passwords was a bit blunt, when looking at these people, Zhu Xianhai still couldn't help feeling a little complacent.

"How about it, the military appearance is still neat!"

After nodding, Maria said again.

"Are they all Mapuche?"

"Of course not, they are Chinese."

"Flower people? Are they all from the Orchid tribe? How big is your tribe, and there are so many young soldiers?"

When Maria looked at the "Orchid Tribe" fighters by the seaside who were training in astonishment and estimated their number, she saw Zhu Xianhai walking to the side of the training field and chatting with those soldiers who were resting under the shade of trees.

"See, see the adults..."

As soon as he passed by, those people stood up one after another, and when they wanted to bow, they hurriedly changed to salute.

"My lord, it's sir, it's sir..."

Hearing some blunt official words in their mouths, Zhu Xianhai laughed.

"You are all Cantonese."

"Yeah, the officer is from Cantonese?"

Sun Erxi and the others couldn't help but beam with joy. Since they were rescued from the island and came to this place, they had never seen that officer who could speak Cantonese, but this officer who came on horseback spoke Cantonese. House dialect.

But the next answer was destined to disappoint them.

"I'm not, I just speak some Cantonese."

"Ah, the Cantonese spoken by the Commander is quite good. The Commander must have stayed in Guangdong before."

Although a little disappointed, Sun Erxi and the others still felt that it was a good thing to have an officer who could speak Cantonese.

"Well, I have stayed here before, how is it, are you still used to it here?"

Maybe it was because the other party spoke Cantonese, which made them feel closer, but after just chatting for a while, Sun Erxi and the others spoke out what was in their hearts.

"Actually, sir, everything in this place is good. Compared with digging bird droppings, it's a world apart. It's a bit difficult for the officers to insist on us speaking official language."

"That's right, that's right, not only must you speak the official language, but you must also be able to read, or else you will not only be fined to stand, but you will also have to hang a sign."

Speaking official language is the rule established by Zhu Xianhai.In Nanhua, no matter where you come from, you must speak the official language.

In modern times, Chinese people used to use their hometown as the boundary overseas. They set up their own hills and formed cliques. The differences in interests among the Chinese people were also used and instigated by foreigners, which led to continuous internal fighting among the Chinese.

And the core of the so-called "hometown" is language!

The gap between dialects in this era is far beyond the imagination of later generations. After Lin Juemin, one of the [-] martyrs in Huanghuagang in the late Qing Dynasty, was injured and captured, the two Guangdong officials who interrogated him did not understand Hokkien at all, and Lin Juemin did not know Mandarin or Cantonese. So Lin Juemin made a generous statement in English.

How ridiculous is this scene?But it is indeed a real scene in history.

Since the end of the Qing Dynasty, especially after the [-] Revolution, in the face of the country's weakness, the overseas Chinese were scattered like sand due to differences in dialects, and under the instigation of Western colonists, they continued to fight among themselves, resulting in continuous loss of interests. "Being a Chinese, speaking the national language", uniting the hearts of the people by speaking the national language and promoting education, this is how later, overseas Chinese in Nanyang marched in groups to fight for rights and interests, and unanimously externally.

It is precisely because of this historical experience that Zhu Xianhai determined the principle of Mandarin—only a unified language can bind the Huaxia people in Nanhua into a single rope.

"Placard? What kind of placard?"

"It's a sign that I love to speak Mandarin and don't speak dialects."

Before Sun Erxi finished speaking, someone reprimanded him loudly.

"Sun Erxi, you guys are gathering dialects again, hang up signs for them, if no one falls, put up signs for all of them..."

The instructor, who was originally aggressive, hadn't finished speaking. When he saw the person standing there, his eyes widened, and he immediately stood at attention and saluted.

"Stand at attention! The twenty-third detachment of the reserve regiment, Li Linchuan of the detachment has seen His Majesty!"
