Chapter 328 In front of and behind the scenes (first update, please subscribe)
"Nanhua is known to be peace-loving... But in the face of its violent neighbors, Nanhua realized its historical responsibility, so it had to launch a self-defense counterattack against Argentina..."

Almost overnight, Nanhua entered a state of war, and all factories, whether they were company factories or private workshops or small factories that had sprung up in recent years, were transferred to military production.

This is the first real general mobilization in human history.

Everyone is working hard and working for the war.While one young man after another was recruited, the military supplies produced by the factories in the rear were continuously transported to the temporary barracks on the grassland.

Si Dongchuan was recruited as a recruit. The training center he was in was about a hundred kilometers away from the front line. In this huge camp, he and nearly [-] recruits received brand new military uniforms and thick hard-bottomed leather Boots, cowhide hard-shelled ammunition carriers...

Of course, they also received the latest 70-style rifles. Although it was just finalized, it was given priority to the newly formed troops, because the old troops transferred to the front line had no time to change their equipment.

"Everyone is optimistic. The 70-style rifle is completely different from the 62-style rifle with the lever principle. It uses a bolt-action rotary bolt, which has a fast rate of fire, great power, and a long range. He was using 62 round bridge clips..."

Si Dongchuan and his comrades were sitting on the grass with their rifles in their arms, listening eagerly to the sergeant's explanation. Although they all knew how to shoot—after all, they were all members of the civil defense team and had been trained in shooting, but this new rifle But they have never come into contact with it.

In the past many years, Nanhua was almost like a large military camp - all immigrants had to undergo military training for half a month when they first arrived in Nanhua. In the new immigrant education camp, they had to train for two hours every day.Even if you go to factories, farms and other places, you have to train once a week.

For the highly militarized South China, mobilizing the army is relatively easy. As long as these people complete basic training, they will be sent to the battlefield.

However, the outside world also has some doubts about this, that is, why so many troops were mobilized-in just a few days, more than [-] troops were mobilized.

Large-scale military mobilization and large-scale munitions production cannot be concealed, and in the end all the information was gathered before Samisto's case.

"They actually completed the mobilization so quickly!"

Sarmiento looked at the information just obtained in surprise. Thanks to the help of some senior staff in the American company, they were able to obtain some internal information of the company.

"Yes, Mr. President, according to the information we have obtained, South China has mobilized [-] troops. According to their plan, they plan to attack Buenos with an absolute superiority after conquering Trent Loken." Ellis and the other provinces, and eventually the entirety of Argentina!"

Although no country has a full-time intelligence agency in this era, after a war breaks out, there will always be someone responsible for intelligence collection and analysis, and Colonel Manuel is in charge of this work.

"What a bunch of ambitious guys!"

Sarmiento sneered.

"We want to occupy the prairies, but they? Want to occupy Argentina, do they really think that we... the Argentines will let them occupy our land and destroy our country? Lopez can take the old and the children We may not be as crazy as them if we send them all to the battlefield to resist foreign invaders, but at least we will mobilize all we can to defend Argentina!"

After thinking about it, Sarmiento looked out the window, and after a little thought, he asked.

"Do you think they will mobilize all their strength after Urquiza gets the news."

As early as a few months ago, Sarmiento had actually made a decision-to assassinate Urquiza and fundamentally disintegrate the so-called "confederation" forces, but now facing the "invasion", he and Mi Like Trey, he thought of using Urquiza's power.

"Mr. President, although Urquisa has certain differences with us in terms of political views, it is certain that he is a patriotic leader. When Lopez invaded Argentina, he tried to unite with him, but the result? Urquisa Erquiza said that he will defend Argentina at all costs, he is a patriot, Mr. President."

Manuel's answer made Sarmiento slightly nodded.

"He is indeed a patriot, but the power he possesses is dreadful."

What Urquiza controlled was the entire confederation. Even though Miter seized power by launching a military coup that year, Urquiza returned to the province of Retre Rios, and he still received the support of the provinces , This is also the reason why from Miter to Sarmiento, he will be regarded as a thorn in the side.

"As long as he lives, the local provinces will always be independent, and Argentina will continue to have two regimes! Now we need him on our side, just like Miter needed him in the war against Paraguay!"

Sarmiento thought for a while, then said.

"It is necessary for us to send an envoy to Paraná."

Parana is the capital of the Argentine Confederation. As the former president of the Confederation, Urquiza, despite being defeated many times in the battle with the province of Buenos Aires, did not prevent him from dreaming of returning to Buenos Aires one day Ellis.

"Sir, please believe that we have absolutely no territorial claims on Argentina."

As the company's trade representative in Paraná, Fox once again assured Urquiza.

"Everything we do is based on self-defense, just to protect our own interests."

As a diplomat, Fox, after the outbreak of the war, received the task of persuading Urquiza to remain neutral, so that Urquiza, who was so patriotic as in the last Paraguay War, stood on the side of Mitre .

That's why we give them these guarantees.

"No territorial claims?"

Santiago Delchi sneered from the side.

"Not only have you occupied most of the Pampas grassland, but you have also occupied Viedma and Carson, which belong to Argentina!"

"It's just a war. In a war, there will inevitably be some military actions."

Fox shrugged and said.

"But I can assure you that this occupation is only temporary. We have no intention of being an enemy of Argentina, let alone occupying your land, Mr. President,"

"Can you guarantee this?"

Urquiza asked.
