Opening game, American Tycoon

Chapter 1319 March of Empire Expansion (First update, please subscribe)
In fact, for the people of South American countries, their future is very simple. Their future lies in the empire and the ambition of the empire.

Only when the empire's ambitions swell, can they obtain a brand new future.

Ambition!

For the outside world, perhaps the empire has no ambitions for Ecuador, Colombia, and Venezuela, but in fact?

The empire has been salivating for a long time, it just needs a chance.The most important thing is that for now, the empire is not willing to end directly.

But fat meat...everyone loves it!
As the director of the Americas Department, Xia Dong stepped into the minister's office, holding a lot of files in his hand, including a 100-page report on Ecuador he wrote, a stack of large photos and some maps, and more Important is some of the information.

"... There are tens of thousands of people in Ecuador yearning for change, they yearn to live like Peruvians, and they yearn for the rule of the empire. Many Ecuadorian students in the universities of the empire believe that the future of Ecuador lies in the relationship with the empire. Merger, according to the survey by the survey agency, more than 85% of the international students hold this view, and less than 5% oppose it. In Ecuador, more than 50% of the people support the union. Small businessmen, workers and farmers are all union supporter……"

Xia Dong introduced and displayed the information.

"Considering this reality, I think we can fully support the formation of armed forces by overseas students, support them to launch an uprising, establish a regime controlled by the empire, and then prepare for the next merger."

What is the ambition of the empire?
Of course, the unification of South America has been achieved, and because of this, as early as five years ago, the Investigation Department began to formulate and implement a plan - "American Liberator".

What is the plan?
It is the aspiring young people who develop among the students studying in South America, and use their dissatisfaction with the Caudillo warlords in their own countries to encourage them to resist the rule of Caudillo and work hard for the realization of the "American King".

Well, to put it bluntly, it is to cultivate leading parties.

In the past few years, through targeted training, the Investigation Department has cultivated a group of people with lofty ideals who "aspire to liberate America and let the people of all America enjoy the kingly and benevolent governance of the empire".

Now people have been trained, only the last step is left,

What's the last step?
Of course it is action.Or experimented.

"very good,"

Qian Zizhuang nodded and said,
"I'll read the report later, so please give me an overview first."

Xia Dong agreed, took out a map from the file, and flattened it on the desk.This is a map of Ecuador.

"Like every South American country, after the independence of Ecuador, the government of Ecuador has been controlled by warlords, big landowners and church forces for a long time—the so-called "Caudillo" group. Fighting caused political turmoil and frequent coups. The central government controlled the big warlords, and at the local level, the army-based large manor owners controlled the localities. They controlled almost all the land and wealth, and almost all the people were their tenant farmers. , and because of this, the Ecuadorian people have long been extremely dissatisfied with Caudillo, who controls social wealth and status, especially after the "Pan-American Railway" was built in Ecuador. Under the influence of broadcasting, the local people have long been fascinated by the empire, and now everything is in place, as long as we knock down the first domino bone, we don't even need a single soldier to take this place down."

Thinking about the Pan-American Railway on the map that had just entered Quito and reached the Colombian border, Qian Zizhuang grinned.

"What the railway brings is not just convenient transportation, but an ideological impact. The impact that the imperial civilization brought to the local people is subversive. After all, all people are always eager to change, and the empire allows them to see When it comes to hope, this is the foundation of the empire's royal career!"

railway!

This is the tool for empire expansion!
Through the railway, those small businessmen and tenant farmers who were squeezed by the lords of Caudillo saw hope and saw the future. They were the natural leaders of the imperial march.

"Yes, most of those people have nothing. The house they live in belongs to the lord, and so does the land they plant. Therefore, they are eager to distribute land and houses to them after the empire enters, just like we did in Peru. They are eager to share with Peru Like a human being, bathed in the benevolent government of the empire, Minister."

Looking at Qian Zizhuang, Xia Dong said.

"Now all we need is a try!"

Nodding slightly, Qian Zizhuang said.

"Tell me what you think."

"This is a map of its capital, Quito!"

After unfolding a map, Xia Dong said.

"Ecuador only has a population of 10. Although it claims to have an army of 3000, its armies are actually scattered all over the country—controlled by senior officials in various provinces, and the army directly controlled by the president is probably less than 1000 people. The army, no more than 500 people, about [-] of them are stationed in the presidential palace and the military barracks in the city, and the others are stationed in the fortress outside the city of Quito..."

After marking the location of the barracks on the map, Xia Dong took out another photo.

"According to the usual practice, the president of An will hold a New Year's ball at the Presidential Palace in Quito every year after the New Year, and invite members of Congress and senior officials from various provinces to participate. It can be said that the political leaders of the whole country gather at the Presidential Palace. If..."

Raising his head and looking at the minister, Xia Dong said as calmly as possible.

"If we use the "liberators" to launch an uprising at this time and occupy the presidential palace, we can wipe out all the dignitaries of the country! At that time, the empire can enter Ecuador at the invitation of the new regime to maintain order and guide it to carry out reforms."

"This risk is a bit high..."

Qian Zizhuang thought for a while and said.

"What about the counterattack of the barracks outside Ruli City?"

"Machine guns can be deployed on the necessary routes, and the reinforcements can be severely damaged by machine gun fire."

After thinking about it, Xia Dong said again.

"If necessary, station police can be used to assist in maintaining order."

The so-called "station police" are the iron police at the Pan-American railway station, and they are all of Ming descent.Naturally it can be mobilized.

"It's not the best option."

After thinking about it, Qian Zizhuang said.

"If it is an experiment, then what do we need? Just try not to interfere, what we need is to let the whole world see that this matter is the independent choice of the Ecuadorian people and has nothing to do with us!"

While talking, Qian Zizhuang looked at the dossier in his hand, then he circled a name on the dossier lightly with a pencil, and said.

"Maybe we can do it another way,"

Staring intently at the large map and the city of Quito on the map, Qian Zizhuang said.

"Since this matter is the independent choice of the Ecuadorian people, it is not only the progressive youth who make the choice, but also the military officers," he said.

Handing the file to Xia Dong, Qian Zizhuang said.

"How about having him on our side?"

"This……"

After thinking about it, Xia Dong said.

"This requires a lot of funds. In terms of budget, I am worried that the current funds may not be enough, and..."

"Don't worry about this, I'll figure it out!"

Qian Zizhuang smiled slightly.

"Someone must be willing to pay!"
