Chapter 90 Mexico City
"Mayor, Mayor." Sangro, who was leading the way at the front of the team, seemed to hear Clor's scream again.
"Damn kid, can I let my journey quietly? I'm in a bad mood. I've been bothering me." He murmured and looked back, looking at Renn among the militiamen, wiped his eyes, and confirmed that he didn't admit his mistake. It was Renn's damn guy. He immediately blushed and scolded loudly: "Damn Renn, you might have gone to hell long ago. You kindly take you in and cause trouble for me. Now you have caused a huge disaster, causing all of us to lose our homes. Why do you dare to show up?"
The old town mayor drove his horse to Renn while cursing. He almost fell down in a hurry. Fortunately, he was helped by Clor, who was quick-eyed and quick, and then he stood up and gasped, showing his eyes that seemed to be eating people.
The angry old mayor seemed a little scary, and just rescued Renn, who was beaten by the young and strong in the township team. With the arrival of the old mayor, the crowd slowly dispersed, revealing him holding his head. The burly man showed his timid look and looked up at the old mayor, and then quickly lowered his head.
"Damn kid, I have advised you many times to not drink and cause trouble. You just don't listen and say, how can you escape?"
The old mayor, who had recovered for a while, asked.
"Sangro, you have always said that the Han people in the Chinese Empire are very smart and powerful. The facts prove that they are the same stupid. They did not tie me up at night, and only arranged a guard. I went into the woods when he was convenient to escape." Speaking of his successful escape from prison, Renn showed a proud expression, but he looked a little ridiculous with a blue-purple face.
"Damn idiots, they deliberately let you go. They can't see through such simple tricks. They are stupid. You are the real idiot, do you understand?" Sangro rolled his eyes in anger and stroked his forehead and sighed. He was really hopelessly stupid guy, why did he discover it now?
"No, then why are they chasing me?" Rennes was stunned.
"What they want is the entire South American continent. You who escaped are much more valuable than you who died. As long as you are not caught in a day, their army will drive wherever you escape. Do you understand? Idiot."
"I always thought I escaped by my ability, it was so bad for them." The disappointed Renn muttered dissatisfied.
"Master, what should I do now?" Clore said anxiously, and the surrounding townsmen also stared at Sangro, looking forward to his answer.
"What can I do? Without Sangro, there are many other Gross. This idiot is just unlucky and happened to be delivered to the door by himself. Sooner or later, they will always find some reasons to start a war. Do you hand over Rennes to please the Chinese Empire?"
"No, the mayor, although he hates Rennes and is angry about causing trouble everywhere, I just want to beat him up and don't want his life. I think everyone has the same opinion, right?" Clore replied first.
"Yes, mayor, we just want to beat him up. Although Rennes is stupid and annoying, sometimes he is generous and we don't want his life." Some townsmen agreed.
"Well, boy Rennes, you should be glad that you have a good group of friends. Get up and go quickly. The further you go, the better. Find a place that people cannot find, and live incognito. Staying here will only harm everyone."
The old mayor waved to Rennes, signaling him to leave quickly, and then turned away with a little sadness.
Renn walked out of the crowd and shouted to the old mayor's back:
"Thank you, Sangro, you're a good person."
Then he grabbed his luggage, burrowed into the grass, and quickly disappeared.
The next day, the company Ke Wenbin in the small town of Dolores had already met the regiment headquarters that they caught up with. The news had been sent to the Ministry of National Defense in Tianjin. Further orders may be issued soon, but they will not accept foreign military orders. In particular, He Youcai and others have created an excellent excuse. The regiment commander Xiao Qian decided not to wait for domestic orders and set out first.
As the location of the Governor's Office of New Spain, Mexico City is relatively developed in business. Since its colonization, the city has transported a large amount of gold and silver to their empires, especially silver production, and until modern society is far ahead of countries around the world.
Every year, a large number of gold and silver are transported back to Europe by sea. The ships that transport gold and silver are therefore called treasure ships. As long as they can rob a treasure ship, they will gain amazing wealth, which has attracted many greedy attention. Therefore, other European countries, led by Britain, issued privateing permits to pirates and allowed the people to form a pirate fleet to rob. The main target is the Spanish treasure ships, as long as they pay part of the tax, which has caused the flood of pirates in the Caribbean.
Since the founding of the Chinese Empire, it has severely cracked down on pirate ships, and the warships have excellent performance. As long as the pirate ship encounters the empire's patrol ship, they have no choice but to surrender. Therefore, the number of pirates has been greatly reduced at present. Moreover, due to the signing of the Peace Treaty, the variety of advanced commodities in the Chinese Empire has promoted the development of trade caravans. As an important city in the Americas, the business seems even more prosperous.
In the Governor's House, Count Lawrence seemed to be worried, and the cigar burned in his hand was about to burn and his fingers were not noticed.
For Spain, the governor of New Spain has always been a fat man. Most families are willing to pay all the price for this position. As long as they can successfully get the throne, they can quickly earn countless times of return.
Since the Spanish colonized the world, most of the nobles in China have been addicted to wine and sex, and they are also the ones who occupy important power, which makes the Spanish Empire worse year by year, while Lawrence is different. Although he also spent some ridiculous days when he was young, he woke up in time and worked hard to succeed. After inheriting the title, he gained the position of governor of New Spain with his sufficient connections and strong family strength. Since he took office, he has increased the mining of gold and silver mines, promoted preferential trade policies, and vigorously promoted farms, which has made the development of New Spain's territory better and better, and has also brought huge wealth to him and the family behind him.
But the Chinese Empire, less than a thousand kilometers away from Mexico City, brought great pressure to him. As the Chinese saying goes, "Where can you let others sleep peacefully?" Lawrence also understood this truth and felt helpless about signing a peace treaty with the other party in China. Facing the Chinese Empire, Spain is like a child, and it cannot be fought or defeated. He can only hope that the constraints of the treaty can extend the time of Spain's rule as much as possible.
