Restart Spain
Chapter 53: Mexico
July 1872,
President Juarez of Mexico died suddenly of a heart attack. According to the law, Supreme Court President Redo became president.
During his tenure in office, Ledo used the power of the president to collect taxes indiscriminately and extort money, causing strong dissatisfaction from all walks of life.
In 1876 in history, it will be the day of the presidential election, and Ledo ignored the reactions of all walks of life, continued to govern in the name of the president, and declared himself re-elected president.
And it was Dias, the general who overthrew him during Juarez's time, who failed in the presidential election with Juarez in 1871 and launched a coup d'etat directly.
After being released from prison, he was forced by Ledo to the port of Veracruz. This is the candidate that Alfonso believes he can support.
"Your Excellency Dias, I have long admired the name and came to visit." Sarah from Cuba searched for Dias's gate.
Salazar is an official of the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This time, he came here with Alfonso's mission.
"Who are you?" Dias asked in confusion as he looked at the elegant white man in front of him.
"Hello, Mr. Dias, let me introduce myself. I'm an official of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Spanish government, and I came to visit you this time."
Salazar explained calmly, with a kind smile on his face.
"Spanish? What are the Spaniards doing for me?"
Dias' attitude is obvious. In the Franco-Mexican War of 1861, the three countries of Britain, France and Spain were in the same stream.
"Your Excellency Dias doesn't have to be like this. After all, we are all Spaniards, and we are here to help you this time."
Salazar still had a kind smile on his face, and said to Dias in a leisurely manner.
"We are not compatriots. As for the help you said, you can tell me."
Dias was dismissive of the word compatriot. He has Indian blood, but he was interested in what Salazar said to help.
"I believe that Your Excellency Dias has also seen it. Anyone can see President Ledo's desire to be re-elected."
"We will let him show his feet to facilitate your actions, and we will also provide you with material and intelligence assistance. I don't know what Your Excellency Dias thinks."
Salazar directly stated the benefits. The reason why Dias was able to defeat Ledo's government forces in the back was not his own army, but the cavalry of his friend Gonzalez.
"Then what do you want, the Spaniards shouldn't be so kind to help me."
Dias took a sip of coffee. There is no free lunch in the world. The Spaniards must be asking for help.
"Actually, he is a fellow Spanish compatriot. His Majesty the King hopes that Mexico's position can be closer to Spain, and that Spanish businessmen will not be treated differently in Mexico."
Naturally, the matter of cultural aggression cannot be said. Normal business and diplomatic affairs are normal reasons. Dias can't think of a reason to refute it.
"Your Excellency Diplomat, why did you choose me? My current situation is very miserable." Dias couldn't help but let out a wry smile.
"Actually, His Majesty Alfonso XII of our country is more interested in you."
"Because a stable Mexico is in Spain's interest, and you are one of those whom our Majesty thinks can solve these things"
Only by supporting the pro-Western factions in Mexico, can Spain's cultural offensive be truly brought into play.
"Then I really appreciate His Majesty's love, but what do you mean by commerce?" Although he understood, Dias still wanted to confirm.
"You just need to allow Spanish capital to open a business in Mexico as normal. It will be done in accordance with Mexican law. After you take power, there are still many things that need to trouble you."
Salazar replied, Spain's purpose is not business at all, it is enough that the conditions provided are not suspected by Dias, and the others are not important.
"It's better that after you take office, we can sign a treaty together to stipulate this matter."
Dias breathed a sigh of relief. In the short term, Spain's purpose is still very pure, but he didn't believe Salazar's words. If the powers can listen to the words, the Indians can't be the only thing left.
As for becoming president, Dias is not afraid of what the Spaniards can do. This is the confidence of a soldier.
…
And eggs really cannot be put in the same basket. The cavalry general Gonzalez also welcomed a guest from Spain.
Gonzalez was a good helper for Dias to seize power. His cavalry unit helped Dias defeat the government army.
In 1880, when Dias stepped down from office, Gonzalez became the president of Mexico, a puppet that Dias placed in front of the stage.
Although Gonzalez almost acted in the way of Dias, he was still slandered by Dias and eventually resigned.
This has also created Dias's dictatorship for decades. Gonzalez and Dias invested in each other to make them fight the mouse.
"General Gonzalez, I'm an official of the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This time I'm here to help you." Leandro said, Mexico's diplomatic affairs are now assigned to these two people. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
"President Ledo's rule has come to an end, and we support your friend Dias in Mexico City," Leandro said.
After Leandro repeated the conditions for Dias to Gonzalez, the two had almost identical reactions.
"Of course, Your Excellency Gonzalez, after Dias's term expires, it may be yours."
Leandro lightly outlined a bright future for Gonzalez.
"How can you help us resolve the matter of Ledo?" Gonzalez asked, suddenly being supported as president, his ambition had already taken over his brain.
"Your Excellency Gonzalez can just wait for the good news, and the news you want will come out from Mexico City soon."
Leandro still said calmly. In fact, he didn't know, but His Majesty has clearly instructed him. Now he just needs to hide it.
"I see, then we'll wait for good news from Mexico City, hopefully it won't be too long." Gonzalez sighed, he believed that the powers had this ability, and there was no need to deceive him.
In the first half of the 19th century, Spain was still one of the four major naval powers in Europe. Even if it has fallen recently, its reputation or notoriety will not be easily forgotten.
Mexicans, as descendants of the Spaniards, in some ways know Spain best.
The combination of Dias and Gonzalez has already successfully reached the top in the original history. This time, with the help of the Spaniards, the difficulty will only decrease.
In the eyes of Spaniards, Mexico is not Mexico, but New Spain.
The Spaniards' coveting of her has always been superficial.
