Restart Spain

Chapter 58: dog legs

The performance of the U.S. Army not only surprised European countries, but many people in China began to question the promotion.

Two major rebellions broke out in Spain in 1875 and consisted of a modern army of white men with regular weapons and officers.

However, the Spanish Army solved the battle with excellent performance. Whether it was a religious rebellion or a Cuban rebellion, they all showed extraordinary combat capability and will.

And what about the U.S. Army? In the face of a group of native Indians, even if the natives have an advantage, the record of annihilation of 1,600 troops is still a hot eye.

And Americans' military spending is much higher than that of the Spaniards, which involuntarily makes the American people suspect that their taxes are being swallowed up by high-ranking officials.

It's not just the American people who are so suspicious. President Durant can't help but be suspicious. Even his closest secretary has been involved in the whisky house corruption case. Who wouldn't commit corruption?

For this reason, he specially informed Sherman, his capable subordinate, that the two were subordinates during the South American War.

"Sherman, can you give me an explanation for the current combat effectiveness of the US military?"

Grant did not get angry at this old colleague, but asked calmly.

The two of them once worked together to formulate a battle plan for coordinated operations on the east and west battlefields, dividing and annihilating the enemy. It can be said that they have a deep relationship.

"Actually, the Indians should have received assistance from the British, and the weapons and equipment should have been too much for us, and they still have a team of tens of thousands of people, which caused our mistakes."

Sherman didn't make any excuses, he just told everything he knew.

As for corruption and bribery, misappropriation of military spending, and taking long empty pay, the U.S. military has become commonplace, and the two of them have tacit understanding not to mention it.

President Grant also remained silent. During his eight years in office, corruption and bribery were commonplace, and the corruption of the US government has aroused the dissatisfaction of countless people.

"Investigate the evidence as soon as possible, and block the border between Montana territory and Canada, so that they cannot continue to receive assistance."

Grant was silent for a while and said that the Americans didn't really have the confidence to fight the British.

"Yes, but we should hire some officers from the powerful army powers in Europe to guide and develop weapons that keep pace with the times, Mr. President."

"The U.S. Army is not enough to compete with any European power. This is the most serious fact, and we must find an opportunity to solve it."

Sherman said seriously, not to mention corruption and bribery, improving the combat effectiveness of the Army is the top priority of the US government.

"Then what do you think should cooperate with that country?" President Grant turned his head and asked.

"Germany, France, Spain, these three countries can let us learn. Although the British navy is strong, the army is not good, and the Russians are completely human sea tactics."

To be fair, France and Germany are indeed huge and elite, and the Spanish army is small but powerful, all of which are targets that Americans can learn from.

"Then which country do you think is the most suitable?" asked President Grant.

"Spain, I have carefully analyzed the Spanish army. Under the same number, both equipment and belief are stronger than France and Germany, but the population limits them."

"While the United States is in the North American continent, we don't need a huge army. What we need is an army that has been cutting down on elites."

Sherman carefully analyzed that this was viewed from a purely military perspective as a soldier.

"Spain is probably not going to do it. They probably guessed our actions in Cuba. At this juncture, they will not risk offending the British to cooperate with us."

President Grant sighed, the distance between Cuba and the United States is doomed that the relationship between the two countries will not be good, and the Spaniards will not make money on the enemy.

"Let's try to get in touch first. Don't hold too much hope. If you can't directly switch to France and Germany, they are the countries most likely to cooperate with us."

President Grant actually has a more favorable impression of the French, but the relationship between countries has never been decided by individuals.

The French's crushing defeat in the Franco-Prussian War made Grant suspicious of them.

The public opinion situation in the United States is getting worse and worse, and it is bound to force the US government to give an account. All the fat-headed congressmen have long been unhappy.

For this reason, the U.S. government had to issue a notice the next day, on June 26:

"The U.S. Army was attacked by Indians in Montana territory. Nearly 10,000 Indians surrounded 1,600 American soldiers."

"And according to the information from the battlefield, the Indians have received large-scale assistance, and their weapons and equipment are not much weaker than the US military."

"In this regard, we have the greatest strength to investigate how the Indians got assistance, and will certainly explain to every citizen."

The sloppy announcement of several hundred words can be said to be honest about the country's name, trying to shift its attention to the aid of an unknown country.

And they did succeed. Although they just summed up the news that has been spread, all the country names have already thought of who it is.

The only border with North America is the British Empire. Just as the British hate the Americans, the Americans also hate the British.

Decades ago, a fire set the White House on fire~www.wuxiaspot.com~ is almost no different from national humiliation. Under the deep hatred and old hatred, the voices of the people became more boiling.

The words asking the government to ask the British for an answer come one after another. At this time, they have forgotten the disparity of power.

If an American really killed an American and launched an attack on the British, I believe that the British government would be grateful to the American who launched the attack!

The British, who have no excuse, are likely to attack directly. Unlike in 1860, the British have stabilized India and expanded their interests in China. There is nothing to tie the British hands and feet.

The American people's verbal and written criticism of the British exceeded the British's surprise. Although there is a feeling of being used as a gunman, the empire on which the sun never sets does not feel that men and women are not.

Because before that, in response to the voices of the American people, Le Monde made a response in advance:

"In the Cuban rebellion that ended not long ago, a large number of rebels used American-made weapons."

"They thought they were doing it very secretly, but in fact, we have already discovered it. This can't help but shock us with our American ambitions!"

"And now the American people's apparently targeted remarks make us have to stand up as bystanders and fight for them."

"The thief shouts to catch the thief. This may be the current state of the Americans. It seems that they are now very confident in their own strength."

Alfonso didn't know that the weapons were not captured by the Americans, and when the voices of the American people sounded, Spain's nomination was even more sincere.

Although there is a feeling of kneeling and licking the British, if you don't hug the British's thighs, you will be difficult to move overseas, even if the Spaniards don't like the British.
