mage in the late qing dynasty

Chapter 497 Zhao Chuanxin Is Also a Fan

At this time, the Panama Canal has not yet been completed, and it can pass through, but it is not smooth.

The main reason is that the sluice on the other side of the Mountain of Hope has not been fully completed, and it is very troublesome to switch it once.

When the cargo ship sails to the pass.

The captain used a long pole to carry the money to the shore, and shouted to the American customs guard on the shore, "Open the gate."

This money was deliberately prepared for the little ghost of Guanai alone.

The staff quickly collected the money, but the goods did not open the gate as agreed, and said with a embarrassed face: "Sorry, there was a turmoil just now, you need to wait a little longer before you can leave, and the Panamanian army will come soon." Routine inspection……"

Zhao Chuanxin looked back and saw a group of soldiers with mixed uniforms rushing towards this side.

In the canal, there are also armed clippers chasing.

He said to the captain: "Get ready, I will go ashore and let him open the gate, you go first, and I will catch up with you later."

This time, Miao Cuihua finally showed concern: "Wait for a while, can you still chase that far? How about we wait for you in the Pacific Ocean?"

Zhao Chuanxin squeezed her palm: "It's okay, you go first."

After speaking, he ran up and jumped suddenly.

The cargo ship was seven or eight meters away from the shore, and Zhao Chuanxin landed like a shell.

The staff member on the shore was taken aback. Before he could react, Zhao Chuanxin put a gun to his head: "Open the gate."

The staff turned pale with fright, and warned: "I am an American, don't act rashly, or you will regret it."

Zhao Chuanxin lowered his head and fired a shot at the position of his little toe.

boom!
Staff: "Ah..."

Zhao Chuanxin said coldly: "The Americans have a few more, and next time they will shoot you in the head."

Staff: "Open the gate, open the gate..."

The gates were opened, and the cargo ship passed slowly.

Zhao Chuanxin took out his Krupp field cannon on the shore and aimed it at the clippers chasing behind the canal.

He has never used a field gun since he lost the calibration of the devil's crystal glasses.

boom!
The canal made a huge splash.

But missed the Clippers.

Zhao Chuanxin reloaded and adjusted it a bit. At this time, the Clippers were even closer.

boom……

A shell finally hit the bow.

Zhao Chuanxin wiped the sweat from his forehead. Damn, he won two rounds so recently. It seems that he doesn't have the talent for shooting. He still needs to work hard.

The troops behind rushed to help also arrived.

Zhao Chuanxin saw the gate close again.

He was relieved, but at the same time he couldn't get out through the canal.

He looked at it and could only bypass the pass, then ran towards the mountain.

This mountain is called the Mountain of Hope.

Zhao Chuanxin ran up the mountain and found that there are many tombstones here, and many of the tombstones are engraved in Chinese.

The tomb of Lin Youcai.

Fan Changyu's tomb.

Yu Hongmao's tomb...

Densely packed, there are graves everywhere on the top of the hill.

These should all be Chinese laborers who dug the canal.

The Isthmus of Panama has a tropical rainforest climate, humid and hot all year round, full of poisonous insects, and this climate makes it easier for diseases to spread.

Under various harsh conditions, a large number of Chinese workers died of illness and exhaustion.

Before this era, it was difficult for Zhao Chuanxin to realize the real difficulties of people's livelihood just by relying on the words in books.

Life in the 21st century is really like heaven compared to now.

It is only the human heart that is hard to satisfy, and it will never be satisfied with the environment.

He sighed, put Maxim next to a tombstone, took out two cigars, put one in front of the tombstone, and put the other in his mouth: "Brother, the cards are not good today, but the other party forced you Stud, borrow a treasure to use."

At this moment the gunshots rang out.

Because there are many tombstones in this place, densely packed, the other party may not have seen Zhao Chuanxin, but the atmosphere of the battlefield at this time is like this, no matter how many miles away, let's shoot and make a fuss first.

So every time Zhao Chuanxin takes the lead and kills the enemy by surprise, it always makes the enemy panic.

This is not following the routine.

But at this time, Zhao Chuanxin waited for work with ease, and did not fight back, but waited for the opponent to move forward.

Sure enough, after firing a burst of guns and pulling the trigger again, the opponent stopped shooting, thinking that Zhao Chuanxin had already passed through the cemetery.

After staying closer, Zhao Chuanxin hugged Ma Keqin.

Tata Tata...

When the Maxim is ringing, the screams will be extremely quiet.

Because most of the time, people have no chance to scream.

Neither the Panamanian soldiers nor the Colombian navy soldiers expected to hear Maxim's voice in Panama.

Whether you do mental calculations or not, a face-to-face meeting can turn people on their backs.

Condescending, the distance is close, and there is no need to play projectiles, the sweep is over.

It's just that some tombstones suffered, and the broken teeth torn by the metal storm were terrible.

When the remnant soldiers retreated in panic, Zhao Chuanxin put away Maxim with a cigar in his mouth, looked at the incomplete tombstones and sighed: "I'll call someone to mend it for you."

Although he has no ghosts and gods in his heart, he is naturally flattering and bullying, and respects the beliefs of innocent people.

From the top of the mountain to the Pacific coast of Panama, Zhao Chuanxin looked back and saw that no one dared to chase him, so he walked on the waves.

Tropical weather is subject to change.

It was still sunny before, but suddenly it was cloudy and it rained heavily.

Originally on the sea, Zhao Chuanxin could not find the shadow of the cargo ship. Coupled with the rain, he felt toothache.

Not only does the rain not cool people down, but it makes people more stuffy, and Zhao Chuanxin feels like he can't breathe when his mouth and nose are blocked.

He thought for a while, but there was no trace of the cargo ship anyway, so he went ashore again.

……

Panama's first president, Manuel Amador, called American Dad as soon as he heard about the unrest on the canal.

Panama's independence movement has always been criticized by countries in Latin America and laughed at by some people in the United States.

A U.S. senator once said: The people of Panama stood up like 11 people.

Because Panama's independence was planned by 7 Panamanians and 4 Americans.

The suppression in Colombia was also child's play. At that time, there was no enthusiasm for arresting Zhao Chuanxin.

If the Latin American world is the backyard of the United States, Panama is the gate of the backyard.

Liberals like Honduras are very unhappy that the United States has no scruples occupying their islands and dominating them.It's like when a husband catches an adulterer on the bed, he has to get out and close the door.Occasionally slapping merchant ships in the United States is like saying harsh words to adulterers and prostitutes: It's three o'clock, and I'll come back at five o'clock. If you don't come out, I'll fucking keep you out of this door.

Manuel Amador was taken aback.

In many cases, wars between countries in the Latin American world cannot kill so many people today.

How did you do it?

The United States establishes a Caribbean Command in Panama.

William Emory served as commander of the Caribbean Command at this time, coordinating military operations and security matters.

Manuel Amado said aggrievedly: "Emory, we didn't provoke anyone, but we were murdered. You are stationed in Panama. Didn't you hear about the disturbance on the canal?"

Of course William Emery heard it.

He said: "Don't worry, Mr. Amador, we also lost an engineer, and a staff member at the gate was shot in the toe by a gun, and it was difficult to walk afterwards."

Manuel Amador gradually became agitated: "But, sir, this is a completely unwarranted disaster."

William Emory said meaningfully: "Is it really a disaster? Why did Colombia get mixed up with Honduras? Also, why did you put Colombian warships in and let their soldiers land?"

For Manuel Amador, America is both enlightened and reasonable and irreverent.

Because of the intervention of the United States, in the frenzy of carve up the world, Panama, a tiny place, was able to survive in the cracks.

But it's hard to say that Manuel Amador doesn't have other little things in mind.

This time it was a knock.

Manuel Amado was a little scared, and he hastened to say: “That’s because Colombia participated in the civil strife in Honduras, and a soldier on an armed clipper was shot and killed by a Chinese, so they came to arrest them , already greeted me."

William Emory pondered for a moment: "Our garrison is insufficient. I suggest you let Huertas lead his men to encircle and suppress, while I will guard the canal to encircle and intercept."

This call is not necessarily a call for help, but more like permission.

Huertas is also the founding father of Panama. He currently has more than [-] troops in his hands, and he is gradually developing into a military oligarch.

This guy is very arrogant, and sometimes calls himself: Caudillo.

Caudillo, the meaning of the leader.

It vaguely seems to be a rival to Manuel Amado.

Manuel Amador got permission and said, "Okay, then we'll get ready."

After hanging up the phone, William Emery showed a wicked smile.

This turmoil reminded him of someone.

After talking on the phone with his friend in New York, he knew that the person had just left the United States, and the time was almost the same.

But William Emory is a cautious man. He wants to prove that the unrest is related to that person, but he doesn't want to hurt himself.

……

When Zhao Chuanxin returned to the shore, he didn't want to stay here to wait for the rain to stop, but went to the store where Miao Cuihua bought clothes before.

"Can you speak English?" Zhao Chuanxin pushed back his wet hair and asked the beautiful lady boss.

The proprietress has the characteristics of a Panamanian beauty, her skin color is not white, but her gloss is very good.The nose is straight, the eyebrows are deep, and the mouth is big.

Enthusiastic, cheerful and generous.

"Sir, I can speak English, I remember you, you are very handsome."

This reminds Zhao Chuanxin of fans in later generations. Panama's female fans will always give a good impression to male fans all over the world.

They are sexy, have the plump bodies of Latin American women, and the most important thing is that they are still happy when they lose. The main focus is participation.

Of course, Zhao Chuanxin is also a "fan".

He said cheerfully, "Bring me a raincoat. I want an American product."

Although Panamanian women are good, objectively speaking, Panamanians are not so smart, their technical jobs are poor, and their labor quality is not as good as that of black people.

Zhao Chuanxin couldn't believe the things they produced themselves.

Without further ado, the proprietress took out the raincoat from the shelf and handed it to Zhao Chuanxin.

Zhao Chuanxin took out his wallet and took out a US knife to pay.

The two most recognized currencies in Panama are the franc and the US dollar.

Of course, the US dollar is more recognized these days.

She happily accepted the money and said, "Sir, you got wet, sit down and I'll wipe it for you, otherwise you'll get sick easily if you're stuffed in the raincoat."
