Chapter 212 The Surrendered Governor

Chapter 212 The Surrendered Governor
In the Governor's Palace of Mexico City, Francisco, the governor of New Spain, listened to the report of his subordinates with an ugly face.

"It's unreasonable, how could that Yuri Hod turn the whole of Mexico into a province!
Can he swallow it? "

After hearing the terms of surrender given by Yuri, Francisco was so angry that he grabbed the coffee cup on the table and threw it to the ground.

There is no intention of touching the precious vase on the other side...

Soon, the residue of the coffee cup was swept away by the servants, and a brand new coffee cup was placed within Francisco's reach.

This thing is fragile and cheap, very suitable for the governor to vent his anger!

Just when Francisco was furious, there was another announcement from outside, and a sweaty attendant knocked on the door and strode in, handing Francesco a document.

After Francisco saw it, his face, which was flushed red with anger, immediately turned white, and he sat down on his back chair slumped.

The above document is impressively written about the governorship of New Granada, the governorship of Peru, the governorship of La Plata, the governorship of Venezuela, the governorship of Quito, the governorship of Cuba, the governorship of Santo Domingo, and the governorship of Chile. Taking advantage of the transfer of the colonial army, the districts successively launched national uprisings!

The American colonies of the entire Kingdom of Spain were caught in a chaotic uprising!
The national uprisings in the American colonies of the Kingdom of Spain were so raging, naturally thanks to the input of revolutionary ideas from the French nation and the victorious example of the Great Revolution.

Of course, the most important contradiction is still caused by the high-handed rule of the Spaniards and the multi-ethnic system.

However, the southern invasion of the American Empire led to the aid of the few Spanish colonial troops in South America and Central America, resulting in a sharp decline in the number of troops stationed in various places, which became an opportunity for the outbreak of the uprising.

When the governing area of ​​Venezuela took the lead in the uprising and successfully occupied the important cities of Angostura and San Carlos in the ruling area, ethnic uprisings broke out in various places.

Now the Spanish colonial governments in South America are overwhelmed, and even the troops that have been dispatched have been sent back. Naturally, they cannot continue to help Francisco resist Yuri's troops...

When Francisco received this document, all the Spanish colonial troops who were on their way returned to suppress the rebellion, and the Spanish colonial troops that arrived first applied to the Mexican government to leave.

If Francisco's army hadn't been watching the friendly forces, these friendly forces would have retreated long ago.

This is not an act without authorization. They have received an order from the colonial government in the rear. If they lose the colony, they will be sinners. It is reasonable for troops from these sources to return to suppress the rebellion.

Francisco knew that without the assistance of these friendly troops, Mexico City would be able to organize a legion of less than 2 people at most.

The mob can naturally organize more, but the previous battles have shown that the improvised mob cannot even beat the cannon fodder vanguard of the American Empire...

In Francisco's eyes, the group of mobs joined the army to defraud military pay and settlement expenses, and never thought of fighting for New Spain.

"You go out, I want to be quiet."

After Francisco dispersed the other people in the office, he picked up the surrender document sent by Yuri who had been forked and torn up by him again.

The above clauses treat Francisco personally well, but those who can achieve the position of governor of New Spain naturally look down on that bit of glory and wealth.

Even if the conditions for persuading the surrender allow Francisco to continue to control the troops directly under the Governor's Mansion, give him the establishment of a division!
Francisco still believes in this sincerity. Isn't Domingo now a living example?
The American Empire treats surrendering troops more humanely.

However, once surrendered, the reputation of Francisco's family would be ruined, and the nobles all paid attention to face.

Moreover, Francisco has studied the system of the American Empire. If he wants to continue to enjoy the privileges of the nobility in the American Empire, he must kneel and lick the imperial government. Not to mention the upper limit of the size of the fief, he also has to pay high land tax and poll tax!

If you don’t want to pay these taxes, you have to sell your fiefdom. The imperial government is willing to buy it at [-]% of the market price...

This is actually a consolation price, and no real aristocrat would value that money.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Yuri is trying to prevent the emergence of large nobles with vast land and a large population in the American Empire. Except for the Sauron family, only small and medium nobles are allowed to exist.

Because the land and population held by small and medium-sized nobles are not large, they cannot pose a threat to the local government.

Of course, the privileges of the private army enjoyed by the nobles are also negligible, and all security issues must be left to the local security regiment and the police.

Let Francisco bear the reputation of treason, and then reduce the privileges of the nobility and surrender to the American Empire, he is naturally unwilling.

but now……

"Sigh, I have no other way to go. After surrendering, at least my family can continue to pass on, and with a division of troops in hand, I will have a chance to stand out in the future.

With the expansion momentum of the American Empire, maybe I can also catch up with Domingo's opportunity. "

In December of the 4th year of Sauron, due to the outbreak of multiple rebellions in the American colonies of the Kingdom of Spain, the Governor's Palace in Mexico City lost all foreign aid.

The weak governor of New Spain, Francisco, accepted the American Empire's capitulation agreement, and surrendered to Yuri with the army directly under the Governor's Palace and the Mexican province.

According to the agreement, Francisco officially became a division commander of the American Empire, and the troops under his command were reorganized into the American Empire Division on the spot, subordinate to the vanguard army commanded by Domingo.

After Domingo's army swelled to 3 people, it was established as a vanguard army. The American Empire also did not provide any supplies or military pay, but instead reached out to Domingo for spoils!
Domingo never expected that his old boss Francisco turned into a teacher under his command!
Even though Francisco's division is the Governor's Mansion's troops who have changed their skins and only obey the military orders of Francisco alone, in public, Francisco has to respectfully address Domingo as your lord!
This taste is not enough for outsiders...

Today, what Domingo is most grateful for is the decision to kill Clemente and seek refuge in the American Empire!

However, the Viceroy of New Spain cannot represent the entire Viceroyalty of New Spain.

The semi-independent prefectures of the viceroyalty opposed Francisco's approach and declared him a traitor.

Guatemala, which originally belonged to the Governor General of New Spain and located in Central America, sent troops to Mexico City.

Then a national uprising broke out in Guatemala...
