Chapter 330 Who is the real murderer? (First update, please subscribe)

For Sarmiento, he could no longer think about the front line.

Originally, he was trying his best to mobilize the army and recruit new soldiers, but the sudden news disrupted his plan and left him in extreme shock. Then, there was only one thought left in his mind - Oh no!

It's not bad!

After Urquiza was assassinated, Sarmiento was immediately blamed - from congressmen to the rich, and civilians. Of course, those people's accusations would not have much impact on him, but for his personal reputation, it must be a heavy blow!

Although assassinations are very common in Argentina, Urquiza is, after all, the former president of Argentina. How could he be killed like this?

However, their accusations are merely moral ones. After all, Urquiza is a thing of the past and is unpopular in Buenos Aires.

But even so, Sarnto was not willing to bear such a moral burden. God could testify that he definitely did not do this.

The problem is... no one believes it!

"I said, it wasn't me, do you believe it?"

Facing Mitre, the former president, Sarmiento tried to get some support from him, but just looking at the other party's expression, he knew it was in vain.

"It doesn't matter whether I believe it or not. What's important is that Urquiza's death doesn't do us much harm."

When looking at this guy Sarmiento, Mitre's heart couldn't calm down for a long time.

Isn’t this guy a rural teacher?

How can you be so direct?

After Argentina's independence, Sarmiento was the first poor president. Born in poverty, he acquired profound knowledge through self-study. At the age of 18, he became a rural teacher and published a local newspaper. Later, he entered local politics. Because of his outspokenness, he was exiled to Chile twice by Rosas. After the end of exile, he was successively elected as a member of the House of Representatives and served as an envoy abroad. He was elected president last year.

Logically speaking, it is impossible for a person like him to attack so directly, but the problem is that he really attacked and killed Urquiza directly!

In fact, Mitre had considered killing Urquiza more than once, but he couldn't do it. It's not that he couldn't do it, but he didn't know how to end it after doing it. So he hesitated until he stepped down and still couldn't get rid of Urquiza.

But my goodness, this guy who is a role model for others explained it right away, and now he is saying that it was not him who did it?

Do you treat everyone like kindergarten kids?

Of course, we also have to listen to his explanation.

"Now, no matter what, for us, instead of worrying about who killed Urquiza, we might as well take this opportunity to persuade other provinces to participate in the war to defend Argentina. After all, this is our goal."

This is probably your purpose too!

Mitre muttered to himself in his heart. In fact, he admired Sarmiento's decisiveness. If he could have made up his mind back then, why would it have dragged on until now?

Now that I think about it, I had too many concerns at the time!

"But little Urquiza is still alive!"

Sarmiento nodded and looked at Mitre.

"He will certainly succeed Urquiza, continue to lead his army against us, and may even become an ally of the Nanhua people."

Is Urquiza Jr. still alive?

Mitre couldn't help but look at Sarmiento a few more times. Good fellow, you are trying to destroy the family after all this time! You are too cruel!

Even Rosas's violent Z can't catch up with you!

Is this still a teacher, a role model?

Mitre, who came from a military background, really had a new respect for teachers like Sarmiento, who completely overturned his perception of him.

If Sarmiento knew that his casual remark had caused Mitre to think so much, he would probably regret it to death.

"Little Urquiza is not important. What is important is that the provinces have lost their backbone. We can offer them more favorable conditions and tell them that if Argentina is destroyed, everything will disappear. I think they can distinguish the priorities. Do they really want to cooperate with the South Chinese? Surrender like the Chileans..."

Suddenly, Mitre's expression changed suddenly and he murmured.

"It's over!"

Mitre stood up suddenly and said excitedly.

"We are finished. They may not submit to the South Chinese, but they will definitely submit to the Princess Bonaparte. She is the Queen of Chile..."

Princess Charlotte Clarke Bonaparte!

She was Zhu Xianhai's wife, a princess of the Spanish Bonaparte dynasty, and she was even the kingdom of Chile - the Chileans took the initiative to invite her to be the kingdom in order to get rid of the puppet of the South Chinese. Isn't this very strange... But none of this matters. What matters is that Urquiza is dead.

After saying this, Mitre looked at Sarmiento a little helplessly. At this moment, he seemed to understand that this guy seemed to be really wronged.

Could it really not be him who did it?

"Do they, do they really want to have a king?"

Sarnto frowned and said with a puzzled look,

"Are those landowners in other provinces really willing to submit to a yellow man?"

"Those people will submit to the Spanish princess for wealth, status and power!"

Mitre sighed.

At this moment, he became more and more convinced in his heart that perhaps Nanhua was the real murderer.

But the question is, who will believe it?

"No!"

At this moment, Sarnto said decisively.

"They may submit to the Spanish princess for wealth, status and power, but, Mitre, we all know what kind of people they are. They control almost all the land in the provinces. What have they wanted since Argentina's independence? It's nothing more than controlling the local land and power as in the past. That's what they want."

Sarnto thought for a moment and then spoke again.

"We can give them everything they want. Now, it's just a matter of bidding..."

bid!

This is the essence of the political game, offering a suitable price and winning the other party's support.

"At the beginning, Urquiza rejected us and left us no chance to bid. Now all the obstacles have disappeared. I think..."

Looking into the distance and thinking for a long time, Sarnto said.

"Now, our negotiations with the provinces will go more smoothly. Give them what they want and let them mobilize their troops to join the war to defend Argentina! As long as our conditions are right, I don't think they will refuse!"

Mitre, who was a little confused before, had an idea in his mind after hearing Sarmiento's decision - this guy... is the real murderer!
