Chapter 77 The Pretender Game (Second update, please recommend, please collect)
What is a puppet army?
Facing Elizabeth's question, Zhu Xianhai just laughed, and then said.

"Didn't you say that? The Mapuche are our allies. If that's the case, let's use the Mapuche."

"With the Mapuche?"

Elizabeth was surprised.

"Haven't they come back yet? When are you going to wait?"

"So, I said, we are going to use "pseudo-army"!"

The puppet army... is the army of pretenders.

"Our appearance is not much different from the Mapuche people, so we can pretend to be Mapuche people ourselves, why should we use our own name?"

Smiling at Elizabeth, Zhu Xianhai said.

"There is a saying in China that "make a big flag with tiger skin". Pulling the flag of Nanhua is easy to expose ourselves. In this case, let's pull up a big flag of the Mapuche people. Of course, it is only when we need it. Sometimes, comeo them, let's say the horses, my plan is this time, let Bailey bring the horses out, as usual, but what about us? No need to go to the handover like in the past, but pretend to be Mapuche People go and take the horses away, we need horses, and so do the Mapuche people, in this way, the possibility of Nanhua being exposed will be greatly reduced."

In fact, thinking about it now, Zhu Xianhai realized that his previous handling was indeed extremely inappropriate. After all, right now, Nanhua needed the most time.

The better Nanhua's secrecy workbench is, the longer it takes to get more time.Win time for "obscene development".

"Not only this matter, but also other aspects must be kept secret in the future, um...America Company...the name of this company can continue to be used..."

After thinking about it, Zhu Xianhai said.

"Just use the name of the American company to deal with the outside world."

"That's a good idea!"

Elizabeth nodded.

"The name of the company can always reduce the vigilance of others. Even now there are some colonial companies, such as the Hudson's Bay Company in North America. These companies with concessions have power like a country. Maybe in the future, we can completely Do that, what do you think?"

"company?"

Zhu Xianhai didn't know much about the Hudson's Bay Company, but regarding the countries controlled by the company... Isn't India controlled by the East India Company the best example?
Whether it is a company or a country, it is actually a name. The key is to gain time first and develop yourself. This is the most important thing.

"That's true. However, the most important thing right now is to get through this hurdle first, send a letter to Bailey and ask him to prepare, and..."

After thinking about it, Zhu Xianhai said again.

"We need to find out if someone is really following us!"

……

In the past few days, Romario has been watching Bailey of the American company, observing how he acquires horses, and waiting for those horses to be shipped out.

However, this wait lasted for three days. Three days later in the morning, dozens of Viedma cowboys drove the horses away from the horse farm outside the city. The scene of thousands of horses marching mightily was quite spectacular. Unfortunately, when the horses left, Romario immediately changed his military uniform when he got the news, and turned into a Mapuche. Except for his mixed-race appearance, he looked no different from a Mapuche. , he was dressed in felt and even carried a spear.

In fact, Romario lived in the tribe since he was a child. His mother was a white man who was snatched by the Mapuche. He taught him Spanish and believed in God since he was a child. When he was an adult, he escaped from the tribe.He later joined the provincial army and has been serving in the army ever since.Relying on his familiarity with the grassland and his advantages in appearance and language, Romario often went in and out of the grassland to carry out reconnaissance missions.

This time, it is no exception.

However, the only exception is that he needs to follow the horse team of the American company.

After the cowboys drove the huge herd of horses away from Viedma, they walked all the way to the southwest, while Romario kept a long distance from the cowboys.According to the previously obtained information, the cowboys will be handed over to another batch of cowboys the next day.

This time was no exception. They first handed over a group of cowboys, and then those cowboys continued to drive the horses and continued to walk southwest.

"Are they going to the tribe?"

Romario, who had been following them from afar, observed their whereabouts in this way. It was difficult for such a large herd of horses to conceal their whereabouts on the grassland. Even they only needed to follow the horseshoe prints on the grassland to track their whereabouts.

Everything seemed to be going more smoothly than he had imagined.

On the third day, Romario discovered the whereabouts of the horses, not because he discovered the whereabouts of the horses, but because he saw the real customers.

Those customers were none other than...

"Mapuche!"

Looking at the people who appeared near the horses from a distance, they were all riding horses, without exception, they were all dressed as Mapuche people, and even without further investigation, Romario also guessed those people. What happened to the horses - The horses were sold to the Mapuche.

"Damn smugglers..."

Almost without thinking, Romario figured out their identities, and of course, he also figured out Bailey's identity—a smuggler!

Between the province of Buenos Aires and the Confederacy, many merchants smuggle with the Mapuche, which is a very common thing.
"Okay, successfully completed the task!"

Now, there is no need to follow up any more, since
When Romario was rejoicing at completing the task, he didn't realize that there was also a "Mapuche" observing him a few kilometers away. The appearance of the Mapuche was not much different from his. It can even be said that even if they met, they would not feel any difference from each other, but they had "met" from the very beginning, from Viedma until now.

With the praying mantis stalking the cicada and the oriole behind him, Romario had no idea that he was being watched from the very beginning, and he secretly imagined how the second lieutenant would reward himself after returning to Viedma.It never occurred to him that he would become someone else's "reward". Of course, no one wanted his head.Even, on his way back to Viedma, there were still people protecting him all the way, lest he encounter any accidents.

Finally, the people who escorted Romario also left quietly after witnessing his safe return to Viedma...
