On November 12th, after personally observing several retired soldier settlements, Li Mingyuan returned to Porto Alegre and began various preparations for the founding ceremony.

The founding ceremony will be held on December 1. Before that, Li Mingyuan needs to arrange for the invitation to be sent to three prospective allies of Paraguay, Peru and Bolivia.

Bolivia and Peru are separated by thousands of miles from Rio Grande do Sul, and more than half a month is not enough time for Peru and Bolivia representatives to reach the port of Porto Alegre. However, just two days after the Brazilian peace talks, the Chinese side sent a notice to Peru that participated in the peace talks in advance. Representatives from Trinidad and Tobago, Bolivia, and Paraguay. At the beginning of the founding ceremony, the negotiators of the three parties participated in the ceremony as representatives of the three heads of state.

In addition to the three countries of Peru, representatives of the United Kingdom, Prussia, Belgium, the Netherlands and other countries with which the Chinese do business are also invited.

Formal statehood is a major event for the Chinese in South America. The dispatched dispatchers set off and headed for the ambassador station or commercial representative office of the United Kingdom, Prussia and other countries in the La Plata area. A team of soldiers selected from each unit was in Led by the officers, they set off on a dirt road in preparation for participating in the parade at the ceremony.

The empty Rio Grande do Sul area has become lively because of the National Ceremony. Soldiers and retired soldiers who have spontaneously gathered have continued to surge towards the port of Porto Alegre. More and more influx of population has exceeded the expectations of the senior members of the Chinese Independent Army. To this end, Li Mingyuan ordered the temporary construction of a tent area on the open space in the south of the city for the rest of the soldiers who participated in the ceremony.

The time for the celebration is getting closer and closer. Representatives from various countries who have received invitations have gradually arrived in Porto Alegre, and preparations for the celebration have also become more and more perfect.

In the morning of December 1, South of Porto Alegre,

The crowd was crowded in front of the venue,

Chinese soldiers in dark black uniforms stood in a row and separated the ordinary Chinese who participated in the celebration from the venue.

In the middle of the crowd, a group of ten gendarmerie wearing red epaulets maintained the order of the venue. []

The sun slowly rises from the sea, and the coolness of the morning gradually dissipates. At 9:15, the south gate of Porto Alegre opened, and a large group of cavalry came out from the city gate. The cavalry lined up in two rows. A young general of a black steed, he was wearing a newly customized black military dress, crossed his sabre on his right, held his reins in his left hand, and walked steadily in front of the queue.

The cavalry walked out of the city gate, waiting for the ordinary Chinese outside the city to consciously give way, and the noisy venue quickly calmed down.

Li Mingyuan rode on the horse and glanced at the Chinese people standing on both sides. Among the crowd, most of the Chinese people wore worn linen clothes, some of them were old black military uniforms with patches sewn on them, and some disabled Chinese chests. Hanging to create a rough round nameplate, that is the medal obtained for military merit.

In the early days of the implementation of the medal system, there was a lack of machinery and raw materials for making medals. The first batch of military medals issued was artificially built using earthen methods, and the workmanship was simple, with a total of less than a thousand.

The Chinese wearing medals all contributed to the battle. They either lost their fighting power and eventually left the army because of heroic injuries or injuries during the expedition.

The medal was issued by Li Mingyuan himself. Li Mingyuan, a retired Chinese wearing a medal in the crowd, has an impression, and most people can still call their names.

Looking at the retired soldiers still maintaining an upright posture in the army, Li Mingyuan's increasingly hard heart was also touched. The battle time of life and death left a deep mark on the Chinese soldiers, even if they had left the battlefield and formed the trust in the battlefield. And faith remains indelible.

Faced with retired soldiers who firmly looked at themselves, Li Mingyuan did not speak, but slowly raised his right hand, and paid a solemn military salute to the crowd.

The black horse continued to move forward, Li Mingyuan kept the right-handed military salute posture, and responded to him with the same gesture. The entire venue seemed to be a huge military camp. Whether it was a soldier on vigilance or a retired Chinese, their salute had It may not be correct, but the meaning conveyed is the same. They are paying tribute to Li Mingyuan at the same time.

Riding all the way to the high platform in the center of the venue, Li Mingyuan dismounted and walked up to the high platform, like many inspections of the troops, shouting "Li Li!"

There was a sound of falling arms from the brushing arm.

"In the mainland, we came to the South American region by boat for various reasons."

At the beginning, Li Mingyuan's words were beyond the expectations of the foreign representatives in the seats of the guests. There was no false courtesy and welcoming ceremony. Instead, he slowly described the Chinese people's arrival in South America.

"Peru is full of precious minerals and lush plantations. The island of Cuba is rich in sweet and rich sucrose. There is a rich and beloved place in heaven, but everything there does not belong to us.

Trucks of ore were transported out of the mine, and boxes of sweets were put on the table. Our labor at the mine and the manor created the wealth of the owner and the manor, but what about us?

Still living in a dark and wet mine, lying on a mosquito-heavy manor.

We are not slaves, but live a life that is not as good as slaves. The mine owners and manor owners ignore us. Indian supervisors whipped us, and even black slaves bullied us by their size.

Surviving, passing, and being deceived and flogged by others, we endure, heavy labor, and lifelessness, we endure, even if others point their guns at their heads, they also imagine their conscience or hope of others' resistance ,

As a result, I escaped the death robbery, and in the end I still couldn't escape the fate of the bone mine or the deserted forest. "

The environment of mines and plantations is harsh and the labor intensity is high. Many Chinese workers can't bear the heavy labor and dare not resist, they can only jump into the hot syrup or jump out of the ore to commit suicide. It can be said that each The lives of Chinese workers are buried in desserts and refined steel produced in South America.

The Chinese who stood at the venue were all labor-born. They all experienced what Li Mingyuan said in their mouths. The time at the mine and the plantation was an unforgettable past, but the words in their ears brought back **** memories of the past.

"The memories of labor are cruel and miserable, but we must not forget.

, War is bound to be dangerous, and war will be lost. Why do we become slaves to other people, the population of the mainland is huge, and why are we killed by millions of captives?

It is because they dare not resist, as long as the knife is not placed on their necks, they will pass.

Resistance doesn't have to be dead.

In Peru we launched an uprising and defeated those who oppressed us. Now that we have land and land, we won't be able to marry a wife any time soon, and the danger seems to have left us.

No, no, once we relax our vigilance and do not think ahead, the threat of death will come to us again.

Therefore, I hope that every Chinese brother in the audience will not give up the rifle in his hand and train harder. If others invade us, use our rifle to defend our land and homeland! "

After speaking, Li Mingyuan suddenly exclaimed, "If someone cedes our land, what should we do?"

"Fighting." The loud, hoarse cry was answered to him.

"What do we do if someone attacks us?"

"Fighting battle"

Two consecutive bursts of war-filled answers allowed Li Mingyuan to get the answer he wanted. He raised his hand to stop the Chinese voice below. Li Mingyuan suppressed his excitement and continued to say, "Going a long way, going through hundreds of battles, all the Chinese present today will Witness the establishment of our own country. "

"Long live! Long live the world!" The tsunami of Shanhu drowned all the voices at the venue.

The live sound for the duration of the meeting lasted for three minutes before it stopped, and then the representative of the Brazilian empire stepped on the stage to announce the grant of the Duke of South Rio Grande Li Mingyuan and the establishment of the Autonomous Principality of South Rio Grande.

After the announcement by the Brazilian representative, a parade was held. A line of cavalry, artillery, infantry, and naval forces walked through the parade. However, the attention of the representatives of Brazil and other countries involved in the establishment of the Principality of Rio Grande do Sul was not focused on the parade. They are still digesting Li Mingyuan's speech on stage and the reaction of the Chinese off the stage.

The Duke of Brazil ’s Empire, Frobert, was sitting in the guest seat. The Brazilian representative who participated in the inauguration ceremony of the Duchy of Rio Grande do Sul was not included. He participated in the celebration in a private capacity.

Kanudut, the son of Duke Frobert, who was captured during the battle in Oliva, was returned to Brazil as the first exchange of prisoners after the peace agreement was signed, and obtained the specific process of Oliva's attack from his son's mouth ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ He was curious that a troop composed of a cowardly Chinese laborer had erupted into a huge fighting force, so he took the opportunity of the celebration to come to Porto Alegre and observe the Chinese troops up close.

The Chinese Independent Army, no, should now be called the National Defense Army of the Principality of Rio Grande do Sul. At the stage, Li Mingyuan just announced the new name of the Chinese Independent Army, the National Defense Force of the Principality of Rio Grande do Sul, referred to as the National Defense Force.

The actual combat capability of the National Defense Forces has never been seen by Duke Frobert, but the reactions of ordinary Chinese at the scene were all in his eyes.

Fever and belligerent, Frobert understood the failure of the Brazilian army from the eyes of ordinary Chinese.

A fanatical, faithful army, plus a young, wise leader embraced by soldiers, even if they were thin and shabby.

They are still an excellent army with muskets, and the Brazilian army is not lost in their hands.

Frobert quietly left the guest seat, took his servant and guard into the carriage and went back, intending to tell Pedro II everything he saw, and reminded Pedro II to make the right decision, not because of the wrong Subjective impressions easily go to war with the Chinese.
