At the end of April, the second batch of weapons arrived in Santiago. In addition to the equipment of 20,000 people, there were also a large number of grenades and ten Gatling heavy machine guns specially requested by Li Mu.

After this batch of weapons arrived in San Diego, the shortage of weapons was finally relieved. The recruits in the San Diego barracks no longer needed to hold a wooden gun for training. The officers at the front of El Christo also had enough grenades. The Tinglin heavy machine guns are even more significant. The first day they were sent to El Christo, they hurt more than 3,000 Spaniards.

The level of medical care has remained at a junior level these years, and injury to some extent means permanent attrition.

The lethality of heavy machine guns on the group charge is undoubted. During the Battle of the Somme during the First World War, the Germans placed a large number of Marks on the front. As a result, the British who used the group charge lost nearly 60,000 people in one day. .

Compared with the British, the Spanish's loss is not serious, but if you consider that after a few days of fighting, the total number of Spanish soldiers is only about 40,000, then this level of casualties means basically Offensive ability.

In early May, Willi Nikolau considered himself unable to continue the offensive and took the initiative to withdraw to Bayamo. The first battle of El Cristo was over.

From mid-April to early May, the first Battle of El Cristo fought for about 20 days. The Spaniards suffered more than 15,000 casualties, including nearly 6,000 regular Spanish troops. The Republic of Cuba lost about seven Thousands, including twelve American officers.

If one word was used to describe the first battle of El Cristo, it would be "lost in both."

The only one who made a profit was Li Mu. In 20 days, Li Mu assembled a Guantanamo infantry regiment with more than 2,000 people, and gathered about 9,000 construction workers in Guantanamo Bay.

These 9,000 people have been divided into two lanes, of which about 4,000 are building a road from Guantanamo Bay to Guantanamo Town, and another 5,000 are building a new Guantanamo Town.

Nelson was very powerful. One day at the end of April, a Spanish-led colonial army attacked Guantanamo town. They snatched all the belongings of the French who lived in Guantanamo town, and then set fire to Guantanamo town. The Guantanamo Infantry Regiment rushed away.

Well, for the Guantanamo Infantry Regiment to drive away the Spaniards, the French in Guantanamo Town finally accepted the Guantanamo Infantry Regiment.

In fact, why not accept it? Around Guantanamo Town, there are more than 100,000 acres of land available for reclamation, but these French people have lived here for 30 years, and the cultivated land is only more than 2,000 acres. The remaining open space A lot.

Hmm, the French really think so. This is not to blame the French, because the French have never seen how Chinese farmers cultivate the land. In fact, it won't take long for the French to find that their living space is limited here. Within two thousand acres of land, all other land will belong to Chinese farmers.

"As for collective farms, we must pay attention to the imbalance of gender ratio. At present, there are more than 5,000 construction workers and farm workers in Guantanamo, but there are almost no women. Most of them were slaves before. There is no opportunity to start a family. Although they have the opportunity to become a freelancer, they are not the object of starting a family. If this problem is not resolved as soon as possible, it may cause serious social problems. "Nielsen is now the mayor of Guantanamo, so pay attention The point is not the same as Li Mu.

On this issue, Li Mu really thought about it. Li Mu's solution was to emigrate from the Qing Empire. As long as a large number of Chinese women were imported from the Qing Empire, the problem of gender imbalance could be alleviated.

The idea is good, but Li Mu ignores timeliness. Immigration is not a simple matter. Large-scale immigration is even more protracted. Even if Li Mu opens up the joints of the US Immigration Service, he must find enough suitable women in the Qing Empire. This is not easy. If you want to find one thousand or eight hundred people, it would not take much effort, but Li Mu wants tens of thousands of people, which is a bit unrealistic.

It's a very objectionable thing to go abroad for life these years. Men can also be understood as laborers selling labor. Can women go abroad? It is estimated that only some flesh-and-blood businesses can be done, so unless it is a last resort, Li Mu may not find too many Qing Empire women willing to go abroad.

In this case, if you want to solve this problem, you can only focus on Cuba or other countries in South America. The better thing is that the Republic of Cuba has not abolished slavery, so women can still be purchased on the market. ** Li, and compared to male ** Li, the price is much cheaper, so Li Mu bought more than 300 female ** Li through Ricardo during this time, this can finally alleviate the urgency of the yin and yang imbalance. .

As for collective farms, this is the agricultural system that Li Mu promoted in Guantanamo. There is a lot of wasteland in Guantanamo. Nielsen called on the Chinese to reclaim wasteland. For every two acres of wasteland reclaimed, one acre belongs to it, which greatly inspired The Chinese work with enthusiasm. Almost all Chinese want to reclaim wasteland. No one wants to continue to be a construction worker.

How enthusiastic the Chinese are about the land, which is hard for outsiders to imagine, especially the French in Guantanamo. They really ca n’t understand. These Chinese have no cattle, horses, or even suitable tools. They rely on the pick in their hands. With a shovel, they can reclaim land at a speed no less than the use of animal power, as if they would not be tired at all.

In fact, it is not that it is not tired, but when the hope in my heart suddenly bursts out, the exhaustion of the body will become negligible, and owning a piece of land is the ultimate dream of almost all Chinese. Possibility of realization. If you are afraid of affecting your future assets, you will not forgive yourself.

"Land replacement will begin tomorrow. When someone reclaims two acres of land, the status of slaves will automatically become free people. Then they can exchange one acre for a cow or a horse, or two acres for a woman. Slaves, it ’s okay to be bitter and tired. You have to believe in their abilities. As long as you let them see hope, it wo n’t be long before we have a large number of collective farms in Guantanamo. ”Li Mu is confident. Hopefully, Li Mu believes that the Chinese will not lose to any race.

"Okay, we have five hundred cows and a thousand horses now, and I hope these are enough." Nelson was sad, his Guantanamo city had a serious fiscal deficit now.

It is not easy to buy cattle and horses in Cuba. Li Mu was purchased from Miami, Florida. This is the nearest U.S. territory to Guantanamo. The cattle and horses purchased by Li Mu are loaded from Miami and it only takes two and a half days to reach Guantanamo Bay. .

"It does n’t matter if you do n’t have enough. I will send people to Springfield in a few days. There are also a lot of workers there. There are ten times more land near the Kuobin Reservoir, and the climate is more pleasant. The land is more fertile and easier to find. Wife, the reason why I did n’t tell them before was because I was afraid that no one of them would stay. Now it ’s no problem. We have to send away at least three-fifths of the people here so that we can maintain a basic balance. ”Li Mu released The big killer should also worry about the Kuobin Reservoir project.

Just last month, the Kuobin Reservoir project officially started, and Junma Investment Company employed more than 6,000 workers. However, compared to the Kuobin Reservoir project, these people are not enough. Henry estimates that at least 30,000 workers will be required. To keep up with the construction progress.

It is impossible to find 30,000 workers in Springfield, which is only 30,000 in total.

Like all major projects, Huagong immediately became the most popular worker, and this time is not the same as before. The former boss paid the salary in US dollars, but also gave less. Li Mu gave enough US dollars, but also You can choose to use your land to pay your salary. Although it is located in the remote states of Indiana and Illinois, but because the area is large enough, it is still very tempting.

Li Mu overthrew Amis. The most immediate benefit is that the land originally owned by Mobilier Credit Company in Indiana and Illinois fell under the name of Li Mu. These lands are along the railway. The traffic is very general. With millions of acres, it is more than enough to accommodate all Chinese in the United States.

"I heard that Mr. Henry was successfully elected as the Deputy Mayor of Springfield-" Nelson imagined.

Springfield's parliamentary re-election has ended, and Henry was successfully elected as a Springfield City councillor, as well as a Massachusetts state councilor, and appointed by Springfield City Council as the Deputy Mayor of Springfield.

Will has finally been able to leave the **** deputy mayor's office and has now boarded a ship in New York Harbor and headed straight for Cuba. Compared to politics, Will still prefers a military career, and being a police officer feels a bit unpleasant.

Coming to Will with Cuba was Dean Langer of MIT. Stainless steel and chrome-molybdenum alloy steel are still in the verification stage, but the research on light bulbs has been basically successful. Franklin has found suitable materials from Japan. MIT Successfully lighting ten light bulbs for 1200 hours in a row, which also means that the first phase of research has been basically completed, and it is about to enter the harvest period from now on.

The gain is indeed huge. Runkel was famous for inventing the light bulb. He was successfully elected to the Boston Parliament and nominated the president of the American Science and Technology Association. Like previous practice, Li Mu owns the patent right for the light bulb. This is an invention that is more important than smokeless powder. If Li Mu wants to sell it now, he can get at least tens of millions of dollars.

Tens of millions of dollars!

To be honest, Li Mu is really not looking now.
