Chapter 420 The Mexican-American War!

In the more than 20 years from 1824 to 1846, Mexico had about 250 military coups and replaced 31 presidents. Among them, only in the five years from 1841 to 1846, more than a dozen presidents were replaced. Replace every 4 months.

The level of chaos within Mexico is evident.

The most famous military dictator in this series of coups was the de facto ruler of what is now Mexico, Antonio Lopez de Santa Ana.

In the more than 20 years since the establishment of the Federal Republic, he has successfully achieved his goal of manipulating and controlling the government of the Republic several times by using all kinds of cunning and conspiracy means, or supporting puppets, or going out personally.

Between 1833 and 1846, he became president or de facto dictator of Mexico four times.

These military dictatorships, including Antonio López de Santa Ana, after coming to power, instead of trying to stabilize the situation and develop the economy, they used their power to arbitrarily loot the people's wealth and make the people miserable.

In this turbulent situation, the Mexican government could not exercise effective jurisdiction and control over the northern border provinces. In northern California, the Mexican government could not even set up an orderly government, and there was almost no line of communication between Mexico City and Monterrey. .

Although Mexico has achieved independence, because the land system has not undergone fundamental changes, the backward feudal large estate system still dominates, coupled with the turbulent political situation, the wanton looting of the dictator and the destruction of wars, Mexico's agricultural development has been long-term. Lag, the development of industry and mining industry is also extremely limited.

Overall, the Mexican economy developed very slowly after independence.

As a neighboring country, the United States has shown a booming economy during the same period. The central, eastern and northern regions are carrying out the industrial revolution vigorously, and the economic strength gap between the two countries is constantly widening.

The United States, whose national strength has gradually grown stronger, coveted Mexico's resources and land, and began to infiltrate and provoke the northern provinces of Mexico, while Mexico, whose national strength was weak, was doomed to its tragic defeat in this contest of aggression and anti-aggression.

Chen Mo did not intend to stop the US war of aggression against Mexico. The US has been coveting the northern territories of Mexico for a day or two. A weak and chaotic country has vast land and abundant resources, but he does not know how to use it. And protection is like a rabbit sent to a hungry wolf, it will be eaten sooner or later.

The explosion of this war of aggression was something that Chen Mo couldn't stop, and didn't intend to stop it. After all, Mexico was not Chen Mo's country, and he couldn't commit to working hard for others, and this was the general trend and the inevitability of history.

It's just a matter of making arrangements economically. Chen Mo doesn't want to interfere too much or even change the outcome of the war, which will have an unpredictable impact on the future.

In fact, Chen Mo not only has no plans to organize a war, but is even looking forward to this war.

When Chen Mo wanted to enclosure in the west and built many large-scale ranches, Victor and James also slaughtered in the Rocky Mountains. With the cooperation of Indian soldiers, they quickly conquered Jim Breed's Rocky Mountains. Fur company armed men massacre

half, completely wresting control of the Rocky Mountains fur trade.

After all, the fur company's armed personnel are private armed forces, both in terms of number and strength. As the strength of the two people increases rapidly, these opponents have not posed too much threat to them, and they can usually end the battle without damage.

They need more powerful opponents to help them continue to improve their strength, and the army is obviously the best choice.

Of course, the strength of the opponent is stronger, which means that the danger they face has become greater.

However, after this period of battle and tempering, their strength has been greatly improved, not only their physical fitness is far better than that of ordinary people, but their self-healing ability has also been greatly improved.

In the beginning, it took more than ten minutes for the relatively serious injuries on the two of them to fully heal, but now, this time has been shortened to less than three minutes.

That is to say, even if the bullet hits the heart or brain, the two will not die, but will be "resurrected" again three minutes later!

Of course, if they are accidentally hit by a bullet in the brain, although the two can still survive, the original memory will be lost.

However, the improvement of the physical fitness of the two is accompanied by the repair of the injury, so the strength of the entire body, including the bones, is much stronger than that of ordinary people. As long as it does not hit the weak parts such as the eyes, with the power of the musket at this stage, the bullet directly hits In the case of two people's skulls, it is not necessarily possible to shoot through their skulls.

Therefore, Chen Mo also assured the two of them to set foot on the battlefield and continue to hone themselves in a more severe environment.

In the movie, Victor and James first set foot on the battlefield during the Civil War, sixteen years from now. At that time, the two were in their twenties, growing up from two thin teenagers who left home. There were two burly men.

The bellicose instinct naturally formed after the awakening of their abilities due to the need to improve their strength through combat, is naturally eager to fight, but in the movie, they did not participate in the US-Mexico War, because at that time they were just two people who had just left Home, homeless teenagers, without Chen Mo's care and training, and not so many armed personnel to help them hone themselves, their strength should be very slow to improve.

Even the two of them may have been hiding their identities all the time, not daring to reveal their special abilities at all, let alone fighting to the fullest, so in Chen Mo's memory, the strength they showed when they participated in the Civil War was not even as strong as they are now. Not to mention this time period, in the movie, the two of them probably haven't even come out of Canada at this time.

But now, with Chen Mo's deliberate training and teaching, not only their strength has been greatly improved, but their bodies have also undergone great changes.

In less than a year, the height of the two of them has grown a lot taller, and their bodies are no longer as thin and thin as they used to be. They have all become burly and strong. Under the tempering, he has become much more determined and calm.

At first glance, the two of them now look like they are sixteen or seventeen years old, which is completely different from when they first met Chen Mo.

In order for the two to participate in the US-Mexico War, it is natural to join the army first, and Chen Mo has long been prepared for this.
