The Undead Empire That Travels Through the Multiverse
Chapter 34 The Aztec Problem
As we all know, the Spanish colonial rule in the Americas brought heavy disasters and devastating blows to the natives of the Americas.
The once powerful Mayan, Inca and Aztec empires were destroyed in their most powerful period. The diseases, wars and killings brought by white people, as well as cruel genocidal slavery, made the once prosperous population The Indian population of South America has plummeted.
The Aztecs alone shrunk from the original 15 million to 3 million, and more than 10 million died due to the Spanish invasion and colonial plunder.
And the Portuguese who followed were not much less, and there were more than 10 million people in records alone.
It can be said that the rule of the white people in America was built on the bones of the dead.
What is even more frightening is that in order to consolidate their rule and at the same time destroy the South American Indians' will to resist, these white colonists massacred the elites among the South American Indians, cut off the inheritance of civilization, destroyed their temples and buildings, Burn all historical records and completely cut off the entire South American civilization!
The loss of the civilization and history of the past has made the South American Indians even forget the history of their ancestors. Those magnificent buildings, sophisticated calendars, and various advanced technologies no longer exist.
People in later generations can only dig out the history that once existed gloriously from among the ruins and surviving stones.
Even the former capital of the Aztec Empire was completely destroyed, and Mexico City was built on the destroyed ruins, completely burying the glorious history of the Aztecs in the past, and trampling their bones on the ground. underfoot.
For the Aztecs, this is cruel and sad, but for Chen Mo, this is an opportunity to try.
The Aztecs lost their homeland, history and civilization, but if someone can stand up and lead them to resist the Spanish rule and overthrow the oppression of the colonists, will this be able to give birth to the brilliance Chen Mo expected? What about the eye-catching hero?
Throughout the historical process of human civilization, those who lead their people to resist aggression are considered heroes, recorded in history books, and won the reverence and admiration of later generations.
Many of them are willing to sacrifice for lofty ideals, shed their heads, shed blood, and sacrifice themselves for great goals. Many people's souls are bright and dazzling.
Artificially cultivating heroes is a difficult task, limited by the education level of these people, cultural background, and many other factors, perhaps they did have some brilliant heroic deeds when resisting oppression, but when overthrowing In addition to oppression, how many people can keep their hearts when they are in the position of rulers?
I am afraid that no one can answer this question. In ancient China, there is still a poem in ancient China: "The Duke of Zhou was afraid of the day of rumors, and Wang Mang was humble before usurping. Xiangshi died at the beginning, who knows whether it is true or not?"
It is not easy to judge whether a person is a real hero or a false hero. Only those who have truly withstood the test of hardships and luxury, and still have firm beliefs, can truly be called true heroes.
For Chen Mo, cultivating heroes on a large scale is obviously not something he can afford, and he doesn't have that much time.
But to help the Aztecs resist the oppression and rule of the Spaniards, and take this opportunity to try to cultivate one or two heroes to lead the Aztecs, it is a beneficial and cost-effective thing.
Especially in this way, it can also solve the problem of the Spaniards, and then it will be more convenient to bring the whole of Mexico and even South America under their own control.
But before that, Chen Mo needs to let the Aztecs stand up against the Spaniards.
In order to achieve this goal, Chen Mo sent Jack, who had been transferred to a vampire assassin, to Mexico City.
Assassinated the governor of New Spain and a high-ranking official in the colony, throwing the Spaniards into chaos.
At the same time, the people of the East India Company also went to the settlements of the Aztecs, met their leaders, and incited these people to stand up against the Spanish rule.
For the Aztecs to rebel against the Spanish rule, it is obviously impossible to say that Chen Mo controls the East India Company and does everything.
If that is the case, it will be true, it will not achieve Chen Mo's goal of throwing the blame, and it will not be able to cultivate the heroes that Chen Mo needs.
Although Chen Mo doesn't know how to cultivate a true hero, he at least knows that a true hero always has to go through all kinds of hardships and trials.
Only those who, after experiencing countless sufferings and difficulties, are still firm in their beliefs, indomitable, and full of confidence to overcome all difficulties, can be called heroes in the true sense.
Therefore, although Chen Mo will provide various supports for these Aztecs who resisted Spanish colonial rule, including weapons and ammunition, funds and military training, he can even create a suitable uprising environment for them.
But Chen Mo will not let the East India Company send troops to help the Aztecs, at least not until their uprising really takes shape.
Because he needs a difficult environment to sharpen those rebels and let real heroes be born among them.
—————————————
Chen Mo's plan was advancing in an orderly manner. Twelve infantry regiments were transported to Cuba, and the landing operations went very smoothly.
After the fleet of the East India Company had destroyed the Spanish sea power, the island of Cuba could only rely on those strong fortresses for resistance and defense, and at the same time hoped that the mainland could send a fleet to rescue them.
However, they may not be able to wait for reinforcements.
After receiving the request for help from the colonies, the Spanish mainland did prepare to organize a fleet and reinforcements to rescue its colonies, but the British mainland also launched an operation against the Spaniards, holding back the reinforcements sent by the Spaniards.
Although the British mainland didn't know what the East India Company wanted to do, they would not let go of the opportunity to acquire colonies.
Nautical activities in this era are still very dependent on the monsoon and ocean currents. Once the right season is missed, they will not be able to sail. Therefore, when the Spanish reinforcements are delayed, they will have to wait at least half a year until the monsoon changes direction next year. Rush from Europe to South America.
And this undoubtedly gave Chen Mo ample time to calmly bring the entire Caribbean Sea under his control.
However, although the British mainland helped hold back the Spanish reinforcements, they also expressed dissatisfaction with the actions of the East India Company and sent special envoys to Port Royal.
After a month of ups and downs, the special envoy finally arrived at the port of Royal Port.
