Rebirth of South America as King

In September 1889, the small, quiet town of Mauricio in southern Paraguay became noisy and noisy due to the influx of large numbers of troops.

Centrally located in the town, in a beautiful, classic Western-style building, Major General Turturio, the ninth division commander and advance commander of the Brazilian Army, is sitting around a marble stone table and resting with several trusted staff officers.

This house clearly belongs to a powerful Paraguayan nobleman with luxurious style. There is a neat and beautiful lawn in the spacious courtyard, which is lined with green trees. There was a glimpse of spring water in the backyard, and the smooth stones were covered with moss. A quaint stone statue was placed beside the courtyard path.

The glazed brick and tile roof, the vermilion column, shines brightly.

The beautiful interior decoration also has some western Gothic architecture. The ceiling is painted with peony and roses, and the floor is covered with gorgeous carpets.

In the glass bookcase on the right, there are clothes and shoes that look good. The glass cabinet in the room on the left contains valuable jewelry and jewellery.

The original owner of the house fled outside the city when the Brazilian army first entered the city. Perhaps it was too hastily. He and his family did not carry many precious items at home.

However, from another perspective, in the era of war and conflict, life is more important than wealth. If you sacrifice your life for nothing in order to take away the property, then you have nothing.

Major General Turturio sat contentedly in his chair, looking at the gold and silver belongings on the table, and said with a smile: "It's a lucky guy. Before we entered the city, we took our family Escaped, if it were me, I wouldn't be able to put away so many precious and luxurious belongings in the city. "

"They may have heard rumors fabricated by the Paraguayan government and misunderstood the Republic's army, so they ran out ahead of time."

An officer sat opposite Returio and smiled.

"Haha, yes, the Paraguayan government deliberately spread rumors that vilified the Republic's army and deliberately created unnecessary hatred between us and the Paraguayan people. All this is the fault of the Paraguayan government, and the Republic's army is not at all wrong!"

"Yes, all of this is a conspiracy of the Paraguayan government."

Another officer stared at the shiny gold and silver treasures on the table, greedily, "However, I hope the more rumors like this, the better. In this case, we can save us a lot of trouble."

"Hahaha, Colonel Gaspar is really an interesting person."

The other officers laughed loudly after hearing Gaspar's words.

"Captain Gaspar is a loyal Republican officer. The logistics and material transportation routes from the rear to the front are not smooth. The frontline troops often do not receive timely supplies. At this time, as the commander of 10,000 soldiers on the front, we It is also necessary to take some flexible measures to raise food and other living supplies for the soldiers.

Of course, during this period, it was also reasonable for us to sort out some of the items abandoned by the Paraguayan people. "

Major General Turturio made a very convincing excuse for their actions, and then continued: "General Rodriguez has only left us two hours to stay and repair, and it is noon, just now In the past 1 hour and 35 minutes, we have 35 minutes of rest left. "

"No, General, you are mistaken. From the time we received a telegram from General Rodriguez, we should have 1 hour and 35 minutes of repair time left."

An officer seemed to solemnly remind.

"Yes, we have 1 hour and 35 minutes of trimming time from the start of the telegram."

Major General Turturio suddenly realized: "Tell the soldiers who have been repaired in the city to let them" rest ", and the troops will gather one hour later, and the troops will start on time at 2pm.

"Okay, general."

"Oh, yes, remind soldiers to" purchase "goods in the city, you must pay, and you cannot directly **** the property and food of Paraguayans."

"You are such a benevolent general."

"Rest assured, I will definitely bring your orders." ...

"Hey man, this silver coin was the first I saw. It's mine!"

"No, I got it first. Whoever grabs it first!"

…………

Inside a commercial street in Mauricio, two Brazilian soldiers quarreled over the ownership of a silver coin.

"Hey, Gerrit, Barcelona, ​​I have found a good thing. Come and look!"

Shouted another soldier who broke into a rich man's house.

"What good? Is it silver?"

"No, it's more valuable than silver coins. Come and see!"

"We're going now."

The words of the other soldier attracted the attention of the two soldiers. The two quickly gave up the quarrel and ran to the house facing the street.

"Look, what an exquisite piece of bronze, what a beautiful big guy!"

"

Bancroft, is this the good thing you said? "

"Yes, that's it."

The Brazilian soldier, Bancroft, rejoices: "

If I read correctly, it should be a 15th-century antique with a value of at least £ 500 and no, at least more than £ 2,000. "

"Are you sure that this big bronze can be worth 2,000 pounds?"

"Of course, I'm pretty sure!"

Bancroft's eyes were full of material desires, and he seemed to forget that this was a battlefield, and only indulged in finding valuable things.

"You know, I have been working in the antiques industry before I joined the army. I have studied antiques for almost two decades, and I rarely see them."

"2000 pounds? This is an unthinkable number, Bancroft. The two of us helped you to take this bronze away and hide it. After the battle is over, after selling the bronze, you must share the money. Give us a copy! "

"Of course, we are the best brothers. As long as the money is sold, I promise to share it with you!"

"Okay, we're done. When sharing the money, it's one by one."

Another soldier repeated the sentence again, and the three of them worked hard together and quietly put the bronze placed in the house into the garden in the backyard of the house.

"Well, this is the place, Gerrit, Barcelona. We bury the copper wares quickly without anyone paying attention, and it will be easy for others to find it late."

"Yes, let's do it now." ...

A mess around Mauricio. It completely lost its original order. After the three of Bancroft, Gerrit and Barsaromu hid the bronzes, they walked out of the house.

Seeing many soldiers plundering goods on the street,

At the door of the store nearest them, the owner of the store and several Paraguayan guys stood by the door sadly. Looking at the looting Brazilian soldiers in the shop, he did not dare to stop them.

"Oh my god, look at how many good things they grabbed, sugar, raisins and cigarettes!"

Among the three who loved the cheapest and cheapest soldier, Barsarom, said enthusiastically: "Bancroft, Gerrit! Let's hurry up! It's late, and all the good stuff in the shop has been stolen by them. ! "

"Dark bread in the army is too unpalatable. If you can eat sweets baked with sugar and raisins! It would be so happy!"

"Bancroft, don't hesitate, let's go!"

Another soldier named Gerrit urged.

"The food served at the rear is really bad. We should prepare some food for our stomachs."

Among the three, Bancroft has a vague tendency to become the leader. After roughly considering the current situation of the three, he quickly agreed to the other two's proposals.

Three soldiers with alternative minds joined the ranks of looting, and the messy shops added three uninvited intruders.

Blind Brazilian soldiers are like the hungry wolves of primitive society, greedily plundering everything that they see.

"The raisins taste good," Barsaromu stuffed a handful of raisins into his mouth, and grabbed a box of raisins with one hand.

He said to himself, "Easterns are bad guys, but their canned beef is delicious, and these cans are also loaded."

"Cheese is also very much needed. You don't need a cigarette at all. Throw away the black bread distributed by the army and replace it with Chinese-made biscuits. With granulated sugar, the flour must be better, and a bag of Chinese-made fine flour must be taken. ,

Heck, there are rubber raincoats and rubber-soled shoes. It wo n’t be possible when it rains. Take less of this thing, just take two. ......... "

Barçaromo looked at the wide variety of items in the shop, and tried his best to pack it in the package he was carrying, but he reluctantly said: "The Chinese-made sleeping tents are also very useful, but the package is full and lost what a shame."

"Barçaromo, we have enough stuff, and leave the camping tent to Paraguayans."

"Well, leave the sleeping tents to the Paraguayans." ... The three picked out what they needed, and each of them walked out with a large bag on their backs, just to meet the inspecting army gendarmerie, " Who allows you to pick things up? "

Barsaromu pointed at the crowd of soldiers on the street and responded with a big grin: "I came with them. We are all soldiers of the ninth division and the fourth regiment. Our chief is Colonel Gaspar. It was the colonel who allowed us to take things. "

Hearing Colonel Gaspar's name, the gendarmerie suddenly lost his inquiries, and the tone softened: "Did you pay? If you didn't pay, pay as quickly as you like." "We will pay now money!"

Basalumou put the silver coin he just grabbed back into his pocket, then took a small Paraguayan denomination coin from the other pocket, returned to the shop door, and reached out to a man who was obviously a mixed Indian-White face. Clerk.

The clerk may be angry and toss the coin back to Barsaromu.

Barsaromu may feel that he has been dishonest in plundering other people's stores. After picking up the coin, he forced it into the hands of the clerk, and then quickly ran out regardless of the follow-up reaction of the clerk.

In the ordinary small town, the company soldiers of the three Barcelomu saw that they were carrying bulging bags, and they all cheered as if waiting for Santa Claus.

Also shouted here, UU reading www.uukanshu.com also shouted, the Brazilian soldiers who came back early were all marveled at the so many predators of the three of them.

Immediately after the three men, the last six soldiers of the Seventh Company of the Fourth Regiment of the 9th Division of the Brazilian Army returned with a full harvest. The food grabbed by the Seventh Company had filled the large wooden table in the middle of the camp. The Brazilian soldiers of the seventh company often shouted for not being able to eat good food. This time they fought hard for food, but it was impossible to eat them, and the rest of the company was unable to transport them.

Therefore, they took advantage of the time before the expulsion, each soldier was desperately stuffed in his stomach, eating until he wanted to vomit,

Eat raisins, preserved fruit, eat canned food, eat desserts, eat fried cakes, eat until troops are pulled out, and many soldiers stop eating until they loosen their belts.

The soldiers of the 7th Company of the Brazilian Army are proud to embark on the road of no return to meet the war. On the march, the Brazilian soldiers who do not know what cruel blows they will face in the future, also proudly share the plunder. A sense of accomplishment: "This is not a predatory, it is a levy. It is a levy that must be carried out by the division of the winner!"
