Keeping up with his own men and organizing effectively, Amaru II's many battles were betrayed by traitors.

Since the signing of the treaty with Spain a few years ago, Datang has been plying Peru with merchant ships to sell Datang goods and buy local metals, minerals and other crops. This also made it not too difficult for Guo Xin to secretly go to Peru, Guo Xin came to support the revolutionary uprising of Amaru II, naturally it was impossible to come empty-handed, and on the merchant ships of the Tang Dynasty, he also carried a certain amount of weapons, ammunition and other supplies.

Just when Amaru II was at his end, Guo Xin took several Tang soldiers and Latino mercenaries to find Amaru II in Peru. Amaru II was naturally more familiar with the Tang people, and there have been Tang goods for sale in Peru for several years, and Amaru II had also heard of the military strength of the Tang people, who established a state in North America and helped the Americans drive out the British colonists. When he rebelled, he always wanted to enlist the help of the Tang people, but there was no way.

And just when his uprising was on the verge of failure, he didn't expect the Tang people to send **** by themselves.

Guo Xin made it clear from the beginning, and when he came up, he made clear his intentions: "We are here for the liberation and well-being of the Peruvian people." ”

As soon as Amaru II heard this, he knew the position of the Tang people, and couldn't help but be excited, and said: "Great, the Tang Dynasty is a great country, stronger than Spain, you have rescued the Americans before, so that the Americans can live a better life, and now the Indians in Peru are all enslaved by the Spaniards, if we have your help, we will definitely be able to overthrow the Spanish colonial government." ”

Of course, Amaru II is not particularly naïve, and the concept of the Tang people caring about interests has slowly become a consensus in the world, and he can't help but ask Guo Xindao: "Then why would the Tang Dynasty want to help Peru?" ”

Guo Xin smiled and took out a book with a red cover that was not too thick from his arms, on which was written a word in Spanish - internationalism.

413, 415, 415 corrected

The white face has already made a correction, and now the second 413 is actually the content of 414, and 414 is the new 415 today.

It's good to ask the editor to change the name later, so let's pay attention.

416 Red Book

For Tupac? As far as Amaru II was concerned, the last thing he wanted was for the Indian rebels to drive out the Spanish colonists and usher in the Tang colonists. Although Amaru II did not know much about the Tang Republic, he also knew that through the North American War of Independence, the Tang Dynasty seized Florida and other regions from the British, and the Americans recognized these occupations in order to get the support of the Tang people. Like Spain, Datang is also a colonial country, and although the reputation of Datang seems to be better, it is still enough to make Amaru II hesitate.

If it is said that the Tang Dynasty came to help the Indian revolution in Peru, Amaru II will naturally think that the Tang people have a plan, and they will not do things without profit. In fact, in my heart, Amaru II, like the Americans before him, would have been lucky if he could give up some land or other interests to seek national independence.

Guo Xin in front of him was full of confidence, and he said to Amaru II: "This time, we did not bring muskets and cannons to our Peruvian friends, nor did we bring silver dollars and food, but we brought your most useful weapon - thoughts!" ”

Amaru II was very disappointed when he heard Guo Xin say that the Tang people had no money or guns for them, but he was full of curiosity about the red book in Guo Xin's hand. The Red Book, whose full name is "On Internationalism", seems to have such an amazing magic that Amaru II could not resist the temptation to open it.

On the title page, there is a clear line in large letters, which reads: "All men are created equal, born with the right to choose their own way of life and pursue happiness!" ”

Just this simple sentence is like a thunderclap. Roared in Amaru's mind.

this era. Although the Enlightenment has already been carried out. Logic and reason have gradually taken shape in Europe. However, conservative Spaniards were still relatively repulsive to these ideas, and in colonial schools, what was taught was more mixed with theology and metaphysics, which was specious and more rigid for the convenience of colonial rule.

Just as the Spaniards would never admit that the Indians of South America were equal to the Spaniards of Europe in personality and status, the saying that all men are created equal was almost rotten in later generations and was almost not mentioned. In fact, it was only after the French Revolution that such ideas swept the world with the Napoleonic Wars. Until the beginning of the twentieth century, the colonized colonizers could not expect so-called rights and equality.

And this seemingly inconspicuous red book, which begins with such a sentence, affirms such a concept, and gives Amaru II in the struggle against colonial rule and oppression, and delivers spiritual ammunition.

Almost that was the same sentence, Amaru II was willing to continue reading, in his thirty-nine years of life. He never imagined that a piece of text could be so unpretentious. Lacking in rhetoric, plain and straightforward, it was such a wonderful feeling that almost every page of the book was turned, Amaru II could feel a surging heat churning in his chest. Many things that he didn't understand and felt before seem to be clear in this book. And those things that he never imagined, such as why colonizers were colonizing, such as how to build a civilized society, in this book, he can find the answer.

Then, Guo Xin had to interrupt his reading, because he had been holding the book for a long time. Guo Xin said: "This book is only a general outline of internationalist thought, and many of the contents are discussed in more detail. ”

Amaru II exclaimed: "Is that so? So where are these books, and are they also translated into Spanish? Ah, I wish I knew Tang Chinese. ”

For many foreigners, they are not clear about the relationship between the Tang Dynasty and China, so many people refer to the language of the Tang people as Tang Chinese.

Guo Xin said: "We have brought these books here, there are Spanish translations, if you want to learn our language, we are also welcome and will guide you." But now, as far as I can see, your rebel army is in a bad situation, having suffered several defeats, has been betrayed by traitors, and has been pursued by the Spanish colonial army, and if you continue this tactic of struggle, I am afraid that this revolution will be over. ”

Amaru II was shocked: "This is absolutely not possible, I can give my life, even if I am shot to death by the Spaniards or even dismembered by the corpse, I will never regret it, but this revolution must not fail, we Incas have already suffered too much, even if they work hard for one more day, it will make my heart feel as if it was being put into a furnace to be roasted." Mr. Guo, you are an officer from Datang, you must be very capable, I hope you can guide us to victory. ”

A Mexican-born Tang mercenary beside him smiled: "You really have found the right person, our Colonel Guo was the commander who helped the Americans defeat the British back then, and his military genius is not something that those idiot Europeans can imagine." Even if you don't have any weapons and you lose the battle, we Colonel Guo can still help you win. ”

Guo Xin said again: "Alves, don't speak too slowly, but I am still full of confidence in this revolution, because we are the side of justice after all, and justice will win!" ”

Amaru II raised his arms and shouted: "Yes, justice will prevail." ”

Guo Xindao: "We have the support of thousands of suffering Inca brothers and sisters who are in dire need of liberation, and Peru is your homeland and not the home of the Spaniards. As you can see, although you have gathered an army of 100,000 men in a short period of time, they have little combat power, most of them are not even armed, and the Spaniards have a lot of strength, but they also have their weaknesses. We have an ancient saying in Datang, which is called knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent to win a hundred battles, and only after analyzing the advantages and weaknesses of the enemy and the enemy can we win. We must see that although the colonial power of the Spaniards in Peru is strong, as long as we continue to consume them and persevere, not only can we not make profits in Peru, but even Spain, which is constantly losing blood, will never be able to hold on, and at that time, it is the time when they have to give up Peru, and it is also the moment when we win! ”

417 New Strategy

As Guo Xin himself said, the Tang Dynasty did not bring muskets, cannons, silver dollars, grain and grass to Peru, but the internationalist ideas and military command concepts he brought had a deeper meaning for Amaru II. Internationalism armed the minds of Amaru II and his followers, while advanced military ideas prevented the rebels from dooming.

Amaru II heeded Guo Xin's advice and selected the most astute and eloquent men to go to various Peruvian villages to carry out propaganda, and he now needed to mobilize the locals extensively to fight the Spaniards consistently. In order to avoid being surrounded by the Spaniards, Amaru II abandoned his previous plan and brought his troops into the Andes, while keeping his troops as small as possible, relying on their villages and avoiding fighting with the main forces of the Spanish colonial army.

This was undoubtedly a very correct decision, most of the rebel army were originally Spanish miners and peasants, without any military experience, even Amaru II himself, did not receive any formal military education, did not know how to lead troops into battle. Most of the leaders of the rebel army were not as good as the military quality of some of the Mexican mercenaries brought by Guo Xin. After all, most of these Mexicans were absorbed by the Tang people, and then underwent perennial training in the Bahamas, and the soldiers who received the training of the orthodox Tang army can already be called talents in this era.

The added benefit of these Mexican mercenaries is that they are natives who share the same hatred of Spanish colonization as the Peruvians, which makes them relatively trustworthy.

In addition to the writings on internationalist ideas, there are also some very powerful military books, the most popular one for him is called "Guerrilla Warfare", he believes that if the rebel army under his command can thoroughly understand the essence of this, then the revolution will inevitably succeed.

But. It was precisely because of the sudden change in the style and actions of Amaru II that the original state of the rebel army could not be maintained, especially after Amaru II led the most reliable group of men into the mountains, and a considerable part of the rebel army was disbanded on the spot. They had lost several battles before, and the Spaniards were chasing after each other and gaining momentum. Many people think that without a result, they simply surrender and become obedient to the people.

Even the Spaniards themselves believed that the revolutionary turmoil had largely subsided, and that the forces under the command of Amaru II were at the end of their rope and could not attack any of the Spanish colonies, and would soon collapse on their own. Although they did not catch the culprit, Amaru II, the Spaniards themselves took the initiative to breathe a sigh of relief.

As everyone knows, this is the real beginning of the war!

With Guo Xin's support, Amaru II formally established the Peruvian Internationalist Revolutionary Party in the Andes, referred to as the Peruvian National Revolutionary Party. The Peruvian National Revolutionary Party is the first political party outside the Tang Dynasty to take internationalism as its guiding ideology. Amaru II quickly moved from feudal and even slave society to princely generals. It has transformed into an advanced idea of internationalism, and at the same time vigorously promotes internationalism in its own ranks.

First of all, Amaru II invited political commissars from the Tang Dynasty to give ideological education to a group of army leaders who were basically illiterate. Considering the limited receptivity of these people, the internationalist ideological education they received was still relatively shallow, and here it mainly emphasized the idea of equality of all people and nationalities in internationalism, opposed the colonial rule of the Spaniards, and fought for the liberation of the Peruvian people.

In fact, it is like the other side of China's new democratic revolution, most of the poor middle peasants and hard laborers. They don't know anything about the high red minds, they know that there is a team that fights for the poor. When their revolution succeeds, they will distribute the land, the exploitation will be lifted, and life will be better. Therefore, for most of the low-level people with a low level of education, they do not need a high-level ideological realm, they just need a simple and realistic future. Only for the social elite. The lofty theories of internationalism come in handy.

For the Indians of Peru, they also need a practical future, you say to be emancipated, many people do not understand, then there is only one slogan for them to understand. Only then can the people be mobilized. In fact, this goal, which had been proposed by Amaru II before, was to abolish the Mida system.

Mida was a system of conscription that existed during the Inca Empire in Peru, and in the Gichua language of the Indians, "mida" means "rotation". Originating from the pre-Inca era in Peru, the mida system refers to a kind of voluntary labor system in which commune members rotate regularly and participate in social welfare work in a certain proportion and in accordance with the Indians at that time. It ran through the formation and development of the Inca Empire, and played a role in promoting the progress of society. After the Spanish conquest of Peru, the colonists appropriated the form of rotational labor in the mica system of the Inca era and injected it with the elements of slavery forced labor, so that it became a legally binding system of forced labor among the Indians, which was actually a universal slavery hidden under the form of rotational labor, with extremely cruel characteristics. This system, which has been in place for 300 years, has brought great disasters to the Indians and is a shackle to the development of Peruvian society.

This brutal system has limited Peru's development and placed a heavy burden on the locals, with millions of people dying of exhaustion under the Mida system. The Spaniards adopted a "commodity amortization system" in order to make Peru a dumping ground for their products. Because the Spanish products were quite poor, many people were reluctant to buy them, so the Spanish colonists forced the local people to buy Spanish goods to develop their own industry and commerce.

It is precisely because of this that it is said that the accumulation of primitive capital of the European colonizers was extremely bloody.

The goal of Amaru II's revolt was to abolish a series of harsh policies and relieve the pressure on the local Indians to survive, but he did not propose a good follow-up solution. After contact with the Don, Amaru II had
