New Ming Empire mixed in America

The matter of sponsoring the Mexican government-in-exile was temporarily deadlocked at the meeting. After all, Jefferson Davis was the president of the Confederacy, so there were many congressmen who supported him.

But they were stagnant about the Mexican government-in-exile, and Li Mingqi would not wait for them.

So the next day, the supplies originally planned to be delivered to the Confederacy were stuck directly at the train station.

Now the number of railways leading to Texas has increased to two, that is, two tracks for one round trip and one round trip.

In this case, there will be many more trains running on the railway.

A professional railroad department was established overnight, with major offices located in locations specializing in Texas railroads.

Because Li Mingqi ordered to suspend the delivery of supplies to Texas, many businessmen from Texas gathered outside the train station leading to Texas today.

"We have already paid a deposit for these goods, so we can't keep them here forever, right?"

A businessman was very excited. His entire fortune was tied to this batch of goods. If the Orientals banned exports, he might end up on the railroad tracks.

"Yes, we have all paid the deposit, but now you are not allowing the goods to leave the station. Isn't this a hooliganism?"

Another businessman in the crowd also protested loudly.

Following his words, there was a commotion in the crowd.

"We have clearly written out the reasons and posted them on the station square."

A Ministry of Railways employee who was missing half his arm was holding a cigarette, looking at the businessmen in front of him and shouting loudly:

"This is not our fault. It is already clear that your government chose Mexico between Mexico and the New Ming Empire, so now your goods are prohibited from leaving the country!"

After hearing this Oriental Railway Ministry employee finish shouting, all the white businessmen were silent for a while.

But soon a white businessman shouted: "This is a political issue between you and the alliance. What does it have to do with us businessmen?"

"That is, after we pay the money, we have to let the goods leave the country. Is this a business principle?"

"Yes, this is your government's fault, so we businessmen should not abide by it!"

Looking at these white merchants who refused to take in oil and salt, the Ministry of Railways employee stubbed out his cigarette butts and threw them into the trash can nearby. He looked at them and said:

"The deposit can be refunded to you, but the goods cannot leave the country."

"Okay, if you want a deposit, you can go to the office to apply for it. If you have nothing to do, don't block the station..."

After saying that, the veteran who had retired from the battlefield wanted to leave.

"Why do we need a deposit? We want the goods, otherwise I will sue you!"

At this time, one of the leading white merchants gritted his teeth and shouted.

"The Ministry of Railways is a royal property of the Xinming Empire. Where do you want to sue?"

However, the Ministry of Railways staff remained unmoved. They just turned around and glanced at the Bai Shang who was shouting, and continued:

"International railway transportation is inherently linked to politics, and you should go to your government. Why are you relying on us now?"

After finishing speaking, he looked at the watch on his wrist in front of the white businessmen standing on the railway and said:

"The train will arrive at the station in ten minutes. If something happens if you don't leave, don't blame me for not notifying you!"

After saying this this time, he directly mounted his horse and left without paying attention to these people.

Nowadays, people who want to do business in the Xinming Empire must speak Chinese, otherwise no one will pay attention to them.

What's more, those who don't speak Chinese are likely to be bullied by the Ming Xiejun and local white businessmen here.

Therefore, language issues are no longer the main obstacle to communication.

Just like those white businessmen who protested just now, they used Chinese. Otherwise, they would not be able to communicate smoothly with the staff of the Ministry of Railways.

"Charlie, what should we do?"

Seeing that no one was paying attention to them, a businessman asked his partner in a low voice.

"What else can we do? If we can't bring the supplies back this time, both of us will go bankrupt. We're stuck here. I don't believe the Oriental train dares to run over us!"

After Charlie finished speaking, his companion could only nod helplessly and stood there without leaving.

After another five minutes, the businessmen who were blocking the railway saw some white workers walking out of the station, holding some tools for disposing of corpses in their hands.

These white-collar workers came near the railroad tracks, lit cigarettes one by one, and looked at the white-collar workers standing on the rails with smiles.

"I advise you to just lie down on the tracks and line up in a row, so that we can save some trouble."

When a white worker saw the chaotic crowd of white merchants, he frowned and shouted.

"An armored train will be passing by in a while. You guys can't stop it. If you want to die quickly, lie down in a row. It's best to have your heads facing this way. It will be easier for us to clean up later..."

The white businessmen who were cheering each other up saw these white workers laughing at them in Chinese, and some of them with a bad temper opened their mouths and cursed:

"Fake, you bastards who have forgotten your identities..."

He wanted to continue to curse, but the train whistle sounded in the distance.

Looking around, one can vaguely see a puff of black smoke approaching from the railway tracks in the distance.

"If you don't want to die, come up quickly. The Xinming Empire has informed you that pedestrians should try not to stay on the railway tracks. If you are hit and killed, your death will be in vain!"

An older white worker couldn't help but remind these white merchants.

The white merchants gathered here are all small businessmen, and the one with the most assets only has two small containers of goods.

The rest were bulk merchants who jointly purchased a container of goods. These people did not know much about the various systems of the Xinming Empire. They just started to engage in rip-off business because they could make money buying goods from here.

But the white workers have been here for a long time, and they know all about the various systems of the Xinming Empire.

Not to mention the dozens of white merchants standing on the railway, even if the number were doubled, the trains of the Xinming Empire would not have been hit by them.

The railroad to Texas was built directly from the New Mexico region after the conflict between the New Ming Empire and the white people in New Mexico.

Many local residents ran to the railway to block the logistics trains of the Xinming Empire, hoping to use this method to cut off the logistics of the National Defense Forces, but the result was that the railway tracks were dyed red that day.

It took the white workers several days of overtime to clean up the scene.

Some people may think they are stupid, but this is normal. These people always think that Orientals do not dare to do anything to them.

It's a pity that the two sides were fighting at the time, so not firing with a rotating machine gun was considered to give them face.

This railway has always been the focus of the National Defense Forces, and from time to time some guerrillas destroy the railway.

But the fate of these people was not pretty. They were either killed by patrolling armored trains or by cavalry units patrolling the road.

So after that time, everyone knew not to try to intercept the moving Oriental train, otherwise someone would really die.

Unless the people of the Xinming Empire intercepted the train, human life is worthless in any country in this era.

Otherwise, the Texas army would not remain indifferent to the New Ming Empire's cleanup activities in the New Mexico region.

The people of New Mexico and the Texas army fought several times from time to time, so no one cared about their lives or lives.

No, there is still someone who cares, and that is someone Lin from the Northern Federation.

Because the last major road blockage caused the death of more than 100 people, Mr. Lin frequently criticized the Xinming Empire in European newspapers.

However, after the Xinming Empire exposed the fact that they took pleasure in massacring Indians, newspapers in various European countries seemed to be collectively blind, choosing to turn a blind eye to the massacre of Indians in the United States.

So this is one of the reasons why Li Mingqi would distribute leaflets whenever he had to do something.
