Chapter 582 Chaos in Central America, war every day

Because of President Coolidge's anger, the U.S. military moved faster than under President Wilson.

In less than a week, the first batch of U.S. troops had been assembled and ready to depart for Nicaragua's armed review.

President Coolidge was confidently giving a pre-war speech to these soldiers, but soon the foreign minister hurried over and whispered to President Coolidge with a heavy face: "Your Excellency, there are changes in Central America!"

President Coolidge's expression immediately changed, but looking at the questioning looks of many soldiers in the audience, he understood that this was not the time to affect the morale of the soldiers, so he could only continue his speech.

After the mobilization speech, President Coolidge went to the Foreign Minister with a heavy face and asked urgently: "What happened to Central America?"

Several Central American countries once formed the Central American Federation, and almost all of the dispersed countries were controlled by the United States and Britain.

Among them, the United States controls most of them by virtue of its own advantages and is responsible for guarding the Panama Canal, which is also related to the vital interests of the United States.

If a rebellion breaks out in a Central American country like Nicaragua, then this is not a small thing, it is enough to affect the entire United States ambassador.

"A rebellion broke out in Costa Rica against the dictatorship of F. Tinoco Granados. The current war has endangered most of Costa Rica, and F. Tinoco Granados has already generated electricity. Report to us for help." The Foreign Minister said with a heavy face a piece of news that made President Coolidge's expression change drastically.

Costa Rica is even more important than Nicaragua because it is the Central American country closest to Panama.

The loss of Costa Rica is a fatal threat to the Panama Canal and will also create a vacancy between Panama and Central American countries, weakening U.S. rule in Central America.

"This damn bastard, why are you reporting this news now?" President Coolidge was a little angry and cursed angrily.

The country of Costa Rica, like other Central American countries, has long been influenced by the US government.

The famous American United Fruit Company controls Costa Rica's railways and banana production and exports. Although Costa Rica's banana export volume ranks first in the world, it also gives United Fruit Company a firm grip. Regime and Finance in Costa Rica.

With the support of the Americans, F. Tinoco Granados launched a coup and established a military dictatorship that favored the United States.

It is precisely because of the support of Americans that F. Tinoco Granados's rule in Costa Rica was not very glorious. He has always been known for his cruelty and arbitrariness.

"Your Excellency, President, now is not the time to be angry. The most important thing now is to stabilize the situation in Costa Rica as soon as possible. We must ensure the safety of the Panama Canal." the Foreign Minister quickly reminded.

The most important thing for the United States at the moment is to ensure that the chaos in Central America does not spread to other countries.

If it really turns into chaos throughout Central America, even the United States will not be able to solve it at all.

Unless the United States is willing to use all its army and navy to suppress it forcefully, but if it does so, the United States' reputation in the world will be really bad, and it will be impossible to expand in other regions.

"Tell F. Tinoco Granados to hold on as long as possible until our troops arrive. If he can hold on, he will still rule Costa Rica. If not, I will send He goes to see God!" President Coolidge also came to his senses and ordered to the Minister of Foreign Affairs.

"Yes!" The Foreign Minister nodded and went to convey President Coolidge's order.

"These damn rebel forces!" After the Foreign Minister left, President Coolidge could no longer hold back his emotions and roared rather irritably.

The civil war in Costa Rica cannot be concealed at all. After all, even if the American media does not report it, the European media will definitely report the news.

The most important thing at the moment is to summon more troops to suppress the rebellion in Costa Rica. If Costa Rica breaks away from the control of the United States, then more Central American countries will follow.

So, is it still far from Panama?

At this time, Arthur, who was in Australasia, naturally also received news of the civil war in Costa Rica.

It was no surprise that F. Tinoco Granados had created a military dictatorship backed by the Americans that faced rebellion and civil war.

After all, there is more than just the United States in Central America. The British have penetrated these Central American countries quite a lot, which has also given some Central American countries hope of resisting the United States.

In Arthur's view, Americans should now pray that other Central American countries will not follow suit and start a war that encompasses the entire Central America. That would be fun.

Can U.S. military forces completely suppress rebellions throughout Central America? The army alone is completely insufficient.

If the British armed intervention is added, the Americans will not have to play, because the United States cannot be the opponent of the British.

On the British side, the civil war in Costa Rica once again boosted British confidence. The World Alliance's attitude towards armed intervention has also changed to some extent.

However, this also allowed the British to see a new way, which was to support more Central American countries to launch resistance and directly turn Americans into the clowns of the 1920s.

Which remaining Central American countries will stand up to the United States? First of all, exclude Honduras. After all, the British invaded part of Honduras. Honduras hates the British far more than it hates the United States.

That leaves Guatemala and El Salvador. El Salvador is a region that Australasia is interested in, and the country's influence is too small, so it will not have much influence on the United States.

On the other hand, Guatemala, as one of the largest countries in Central America, if another civil war breaks out in Guatemala, it will completely destroy US rule in Central America.

Thinking of this, the British government no longer hesitated and directly contacted the resistance forces in Guatemala.

The United Fruit Company still controls Guatemala's finances.

We have to admit that the Americans can easily control the economy and politics of many Central American countries with just one company.

However, most of the governments supported by the Americans are military dictatorships, which still makes the local people somewhat dissatisfied.

Precisely because of their dissatisfaction, the British also found opportunities.

The current president of Guatemala is Manuel Estrada Cabrera, a dictator who should have been overthrown by an armed uprising years ago.

Although he has not been overthrown so far, dissatisfaction with Manuel Estrada Cabrera within Guatemala has gradually deepened.

The opponent of Manuel Estrada Cabrera found by the British was actually Carlos Herrera Iruna, who overthrew Manuel's dictatorship in history.

Carlos Herrera Iluna is considered a Guatemalan politician and businessman. Although he has not yet become the president, his talent as a businessman is already extraordinary.

He founded the Pantaleon Sugar Factory and purchased the Elbaur Sugar Factory in the early 20th century. Visionary and persistent, he developed crop production and machinery production during his tenure. His Pantaleon Sugar holdings in Central and South America are far larger than those of U.S. sugar companies, ranking among the top ten.

Being able to make his own capital exceed that of American companies in the same industry, Carlos Herrera Iluna's talent in business is already evident.

As one of the largest businessmen in Guatemala, Carlos Herrera Iluna still has a certain weight in Guatemala.

After being found by the British, Carlos Herrera Iruna immediately expressed his opposition to Manuel's dictatorship, received support from the United Kingdom, and decided to join the uprising against Manuel's dictatorship. .

Also joining the uprising was José María Orellana, the man who overthrew the Manuel dictatorship and, by the way, the government of Carlos Herrera Iruna. President of Temala.

Arthur was unaware of the British actions, but news of the rebellion soon broke out in Guatemala, causing President Coolidge, who was already a little anxious, to faint.

No one knew better than President Coolidge what the civil war in Guatemala represented, that American rule in Central America had been wiped out.

Even if he could still control the Panama Canal, his sin of losing most of Central America was enough to make President Coolidge the most incompetent American president in the 20th century. He successfully surpassed his predecessor, President Wilson, and was elected as the president who disappointed Americans the most.

Now Americans are no longer in the mood to consider whether there are influences from other countries behind the rebellions in these countries. For the U.S. government, the most important issues are which countries to choose to counter-insurgency and how to deal with interference from other countries.

The rebellion in Costa Rica was okay and Arthur could accept it. But Guatemala followed the rebellion, which made Arthur aware of the possibility of British intervention.

Realizing that this was a good opportunity to quickly take control of El Salvador, Arthur no longer hesitated and asked the diplomatic department to contact El Salvador as soon as possible. At the same time, he sent intelligence organizations to El Salvador to help El Salvador expel all American troops.

This is indeed the best and most reasonable time to take control of the situation in El Salvador.

Only at this time is El Salvador most in need of outside support, because without the help of other countries, it is unlikely that the small country of El Salvador will stand up against the Americans.

With the support of Americans, they can still guarantee independence. But if it loses independence from the Americans, it will be a question whether El Salvador, which is surrounded on three sides by other Central American countries, can guarantee its independence and security.

This is also the reason why El Salvador is the only Central American country that has not responded at all. Without him, he is just a weakling!

Civil wars broke out in three countries in succession, and they were all three Central American countries under the control of the United States. This made other countries look like they were eating melons, and couldn't wait to see the Americans' jokes.

The U.S. government has no choice but to condemn the resistance forces in these countries at the international level, while at the same time stating that it will provide assistance to the governments and militaries of these countries.

But such condemnation from the Americans does not matter to Central American countries. Even if the previous resistance did not have the support of any country, it definitely does now.

The ambitions of the great powers are no joke, and neither are the capitalists.

No matter what the people who started the rebellion thought at first, now, there must be other powers behind them.

This is why it is unrealistic for Americans to solve the Central American rebellion on their own. It is impossible for the United States to fight against all powers with one country, unless the Americans have strong navy and army, but the reality is not like this.

The United States is currently strong in industry and economy. It is like an old man with nothing but no property. It poses no threat to these strong powers.

If you look carefully at these powerful countries, your military strength is generally equal to or even slightly greater than your own economy.

Only the United States, a country that occupies a natural geographical advantage, has very strong industrial and economic development, but its military strength does not match its own economy.

Australasia's diplomatic department also acted quickly, and soon came into contact with the forces resisting the government in El Salvador.

These Central American governments are all influenced by the US government, and Arthur will never win over them.

Rather than win over the Salvadoran government, Arthur is more willing to find people who resist the government in El Salvador and cultivate a Salvadoran government that is close to Australasia from scratch.

Because one advantage of such a new government is that the ruler has no foundation in the political arena and is very dependent on help from Australasia.

This would greatly strengthen Australasia's control over El Salvador, which is far better than supporting the existing government.

As for the current government of El Salvador, who cares about it? After all, they are close to the United States. If they want to care, let those Americans care.

In the two months of February and March, civil wars broke out in four countries including El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Guatemala and El Salvador. The war directly detonated most of Central America and shocked the whole world. The sideways glances made the U.S. government the laughingstock of the world.

At the same time, Panama, which has more American troops stationed, is also uneasy. Panama is not satisfied with the reality that the Americans directly divided the Panama Canal and turned it into a country within a country.

Moreover, Panama only recently became independent from Colombia, and Colombia's ambition to regain Panama is well known.

At present, the border between Colombia and Panama has been frequently moved. For the Americans, it is no longer possible to lose Central America. There is even a great possibility of losing the entire Panama Canal.

The chaotic situation in Central America within two months has also made people in various European countries laugh and say: "Chaos in Central America, war every day!" and the civil wars in many Central American countries are collectively called the Central American War.
