Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "Your Excellency, something bad has happened! The Americans have escaped!" The secretary of the Mexican Presidential Palace stumbled into President Madero's bedroom and woke up President Madero, who was sleeping with his wife in his arms.

    "What? What's going on?" President Madero was stunned for a moment after being woken up, and then jumped up from the bed, seemingly forgetting that he was completely naked now.  However, the secretary had no intention to pay attention to this.

    "Your Excellency, our people have discovered that Americans are fleeing Mexico City. A large number of U.S. troops are setting off from military camps and heading toward northern Mexico along the highway! The scale is very large. The hundreds of thousands of Americans stationed in Mexico City are all  Among the evacuation teams!" the secretary said.

    "Assholes! Those damn Americans, those liars, they deceived us again!" President Madero said angrily.  When he and senior officials of the Mexican government visited General Pershing yesterday, General Pershing also swore that the US military was capable of holding Mexico City.  But in just one day, the Americans are about to retreat to northern Mexico, and they have not notified the Mexican government yet. They are completely abandoning them!  Fortunately, President Madero had also taken precautions and secretly sent people to monitor the U.S. military camps 24 hours a day. If anything unusual was discovered by the U.S. military, he would report it immediately.  President Madero did this just in case, but he didn't expect that such a thing would actually happen!

    "Your Excellency, what should we do now?" the secretary asked anxiously.  The large-scale withdrawal of American troops means that the Americans suffered a disastrous defeat on the battlefield, otherwise they would not have given up on Mexico City so quickly.  Once the Chinese fight back to Mexico City, these traitors who have betrayed China before will definitely not end well!

    President Madero couldn't help but shudder, he also thought of this.  The Chinese will show no mercy to traitors.  He has been a puppet under China's control for several years, so he is relatively clear about these things.

    President Madero is sure that if he is caught by the Chinese, he will be directly sent to the gallows.

    ¡°Inform other cabinet members immediately and we will evacuate north to San Luis Potosi!¡± President Madero ordered.  In any case, Mexico City could not stay any longer.  For the sake of your own life, it is better to escape as soon as possible.  Although his power will be greatly affected after escaping from Mexico City, he can no longer care about that much at this time.

    "Yes, Your Excellency, President!" The secretary nodded.  Obviously, at this time, he has no other good solution except running away!

    "Wait a minute! Get everyone ready. We have to evacuate in an hour!" President Madero said.  No one knows when the Chinese will invade Mexico City. If they stay for one more minute, they will be in greater danger!

    "Yes, Your Excellency the President!" the secretary replied.

    Afterwards, President Madero got up quickly, woke up his wife, got dressed, and asked the waiters at the presidential palace to start packing.  President Madero knew that after escaping Mexico City this time, he would probably never come back.  Therefore, he had to take all his property away.  In the future, whether you flee to northern Mexico or live in exile overseas, you will need to spend money.

    "Come here, call the captain of the guard!" Madero then ordered.  There are thousands of guards protecting the President of Mexico. They are all elites selected from the Mexican government forces and are loyal to Madero.

    "Your Excellency, what are your orders?" the captain of the guard asked respectfully.

    "You immediately take people to the National Bank of Mexico and take away all the gold and other treasures!" A trace of greed flashed in President Madero's eyes.  The National Bank of Mexico is a publicly owned bank and the most influential in Mexico.  The Mexican government's revenue and most of its residents' wealth are stored here.  Precious metals of equivalent value, such as gold and jewelry, are all in the vaults of the National Bank of Mexico.  The gold alone was over a hundred tons.  Rather than staying here and being captured by the Chinese, it is better to take them all away now. These are the guarantees for Madero's future life.  As for the savings of ordinary Mexicans, they will also suffer losses and even become penniless. But Madero obviously no longer cares so much.

    "Yes, Your Excellency, President!" The chief of guards accepted President Madero's order without any questioning, and immediately provoked a force of two hundred people from the presidential palace guard to go to the National Bank.  At the same time, Madero also dispatched an infantry regiment to cooperate with them and directly swept away all the gold, jewelry and foreign exchange in the National Bank of Mexico.  All this was completed in just one hour.

    After receiving the notice from President Madero, other Mexican cabinet members also scolded the Americans for being dishonest., and at the same time asked the family to pack their bags immediately and prepare to escape Mexico City.  Some senior Mexican government officials with military power also planned to make a profit before leaving. They sent people to forcibly sweep away all the wealth of other banks as a guarantee for their future settlement.  In addition to the National Bank of Mexico, there are many private banks and even some foreign banks have also suffered losses.  According to incomplete statistics, the total losses of the banks that were robbed reached hundreds of millions of dollars.  And these are all blamed on the Mexican government.  However, the money was not recovered in the end.  Those Mexicans and foreign bankers who have suffered losses are powerless in the face of the new Mexican government supported by China.  However, there are rumors that the Chinese army captured the fleeing senior Mexican government officials, executed all of them, and confiscated their property, including the wealth that these senior officials sent to rob.

    ?????????????????China naturally denies it!

    The actions of senior officials of the Mexican government were not hidden from the big families in Mexico City.  After those big families, especially some capitalists, discovered that the government was beginning to flee, they were not idle either. They immediately followed these senior government officials and began to flee Mexico City.  And this has also attracted the attention of ordinary Mexicans.  For a time, rumors spread among ordinary people that the Chinese were about to invade Mexico City and would execute all Mexicans who betrayed them.  Frightened Mexicans began to flee Mexico City with their families and their families and fled to the north of Mexico.  Slightly wealthier families still have horse-drawn carriages or donkey carts, but more Mexicans can only walk.  At this time, there were more than one million people living in Mexico City, and the vast majority of Mexicans had joined the team fleeing north.

    Some Mexicans who were already poor began to take advantage of this opportunity to fish in troubled waters and became thugs.  A large number of thugs broke into houses and robbed valuable things.  In some houses, the owners have already escaped, leaving nothing of value behind.  The thugs set the house on fire in anger to vent their anger.  There are also some people who did not have time to escape Mexico City, which became the targets of these thugs to vent their anger.  They beat or even killed the male owners, robbed them of their wealth, and brutally violated the women. As a result, the entire Mexico City fell into chaos.  The police in Mexico City were also stationed and fled north. Naturally, there was no one to stop these thugs.  A large number of houses were set on fire, men fell in pools of blood, and women and children were crying.  The entire Mexico City seemed to be plunged into pre-apocalyptic chaos.  The ugliness of human nature is vividly displayed at this moment.

    From Mexico City to the north is a twenty-meter-wide road. This was a road that the Chinese asked the Mexican government to build when they stationed their troops in Mexico.  Convenient transportation will help China quickly mobilize its troops to threaten the United States mainland from Mexico.  But now, this road is crowded with people fleeing Mexico City.

    General Davis issued an order to the ten armies stationed in and around Mexico City to retreat north. These U.S. troops had already been prepared. After the order was issued, they immediately evacuated north as planned.  However, the evacuation of hundreds of thousands of people cannot be completed in a short time. A large amount of combat supplies and heavy equipment need to be towed by trucks or horse-drawn carriages.  This resulted in a queue of dozens of kilometers long forming on the highway, with no end in sight.  Even so, this was only a part of the troops retreating north.  South of Mexico City, there are ten American armies that are gathering towards Mexico City after receiving the order, and they will also be withdrawn as planned.  At night, the US troops of the Twenty-Two Corps stationed in Cuernavaca and Cuautla will also withdraw.  Now, the Chinese army is rushing towards Mexico City, which forces the US military to speed up its pace.

    But when Mexicans joined the exodus, the road became overcrowded.  These Mexicans are in no order at all. Although the Chinese still don¡¯t know how far they are from Mexico City, these Mexicans seem to be frightened and try their best to escape as fast as possible.  A large number of Mexicans and U.S. troops were crowded together, causing road congestion and more than doubling the speed of the U.S. military's retreat.  If this continues, it will be impossible for all twenty US troops to leave Mexico City during the day.

    "General, what should we do now? There are Mexicans everywhere, and our speed will be greatly affected. If the Chinese catch up, we won't be able to leave!" A US major general said worriedly!
