Although the United States in this timeline developed relatively quickly and was already a well-established industrialized country around 1830. However, like the other timeline, the industrialization of the United States still started from industrialized resources such as coal mines, iron ores, and oil.
It started in the Northeastern United States, which is very rich and close to the center of the financial industry.
In the southern states of the United States, Uncle Black's cotton-growing farms are the mainstay of the economy. As for Florida, which has a hot and humid climate and is full of swamps and wetlands, it is a forgotten corner of the United States that has neither the conditions to develop industrialization nor the conditions to grow cotton.
.Although it has long been a state in the United States, except for Cow Ferry (later renamed Jacksonville) adjacent to Georgia in the northeast and Pensacola, a military port next to the Gulf of Mexico in the northwest, there is no population in other places. Especially this state
A large piece of land in the middle near the Atlantic Ocean was allocated to the Seminole Indians, so few white people settled there.
Of course, rare is not impossible. On the edge of the Seminole reservation, in a place called Golden Beach, lived a highly respected Catholic priest named Fidel Guevara. This was a four-year-old
He is a tall, ten-year-old white man with a masculine beard. His ancestors are from Spain, and he was born in Cuba on the other side of Florida. Because he loves God and is the youngest son of the family, he is not eligible to inherit the manor.
.So, he was sent to the church’s school for training clergymen from an early age.
After graduating from the seminary, he became a priest who loved God and his Spanish motherland. He first spread the gospel of the Lord in Cuba, and later was sent by the church to Cowboys Crossing in Florida to preach to the Indians and black people who had escaped from the United States.
Preach.
As a result, after only a few years of work, Andrew Jackson led the American soldiers into Florida, drove away the Spanish army, destroyed hundreds of black villages, and brought the Seminoles and Seminoles who did not want to be slaves into slavery.
Other Indians were driven into the swamp.
However, those American soldiers did not embarrass Father Fidel Guevara, because most of General Jackson's soldiers were French from New Orleans and were Catholics. After they scalped the Indians, they had to go to Fidel Guevara.
Father La's church repented to God and asked for forgiveness - this was actually Father Guevara's fault. He preached too hard and converted all the Indians and blacks who fled to Cow Crossing into Catholics.
According to the early judgment of the Roman Pope, the Catholic Indians, blacks and yellow people all have souls. General Jackson is a Protestant, so of course he doesn't care about this. But the French-Catholic American invaders were afraid of going to hell after death.
, so I have to confess to Father Guevara and ask for forgiveness.
It's a pity that no indulgences were sold in the 19th century, otherwise Father Guevara might have become a rich man.
However, Father Guevara still made a lot of money - those French American soldiers who received forgiveness from him would donate one-tenth of the bounty earned from scalping Indians to his church. So he was in Chapter 1
After a Seminole War, he bought Golden Beach, built a Catholic church on the beach, and continued to preach to the Seminoles in the nearby swamps.
In addition, Father Guevara used the "blood money" donated by the French American army to buy 100 fugitive black slaves from General Jackson, and conscientiously turned them into church serfs. From slaves to serfs, this is liberation!
Therefore, in the more than ten years after the end of the First Seminole War, Father Fidel Guevara has been preaching on the golden beach, evangelizing, running a farm, and worshiping God - praying to God to help Spain regain its strength and fight the war.
Go back to Florida and save the God-believing Seminoles and Spanish remnants like him!
It's a pity that praying day after day is of no use. Instead of cheering up, the Spanish Empire was dismantled in pieces. Only a few islands such as Cuba are left in the New World. It is about to end.
!
Therefore, Father Fidel Guevara could only worry about the country and the people every day, and from time to time he wrote two Spanish poems on "Master Wang Xiping America Day" to express his feelings of worrying about the country and the people.
This morning, Father Guevara was in his church, drinking wine and reading poetry loudly in Spanish. Just when he read "Generosity should be generosity, sorrow will be unforgettable; the only way to relieve sorrow is rum", a man
The teenagers who were mixed together in school suddenly rushed into the church while shouting "Dad, Daddy".
Father Guevara glanced at him and asked drunkenly: "Carlos, have you done something bad again?"
The mixed-race boy shook his head and said, "No, no." Then he raised his hand and pointed outside the church, "Dad, the Spanish King is here! The Spanish King is here to liberate us!"
Father Guevara glared at the young man, "What nonsense are you talking about? This is a church, you can't lie, you will go to hell!"
"Dad, I'm not lying," the young man said, "I can swear to God that the Spanish King's Army is really here, and they have landed on the golden beach!"
"Really?" Father Guevara now started to believe it. He swore to God that he didn't just say it casually. If he did something wrong, he would really go to hell!
Thinking of this, Father Guevara stopped thinking about poetry. He quickly stood up from a deck chair, put on his slippers and rushed out of his church with the mixed-race boy. When he got outside, he immediately saw what he could only see in his dreams.
Scenes that have occurred.
There is an armed merchant ship flying the Spanish yellow and red flags on the sea, and there are many small boats filled with soldiers wearing green short-sleeved military uniforms, which are slowly sailing towards the beach driven by oars. And in the armed merchant ship
On one side, there were many soldiers carrying backpacks and rifles, climbing along a large net to the small boat that was constantly undulating on the sea.
This is clearly the Spanish King's Army counterattacking Florida!
Thinking of this, Father Guevara cried. He cried and said to the young man: "Carlos, go and call all the serfs. Let them bring the Spanish flag! Sing the Spanish national anthem, we want to welcome Spain."
Master Wang!"
"Yes, Dad!"
As a result, the elite officers and soldiers of the Mexican Royal Guard who secretly boarded the golden beach soon saw a scene that made them unbelievable - a tall, older Spanish priest, leading a group of people holding high Spanish red and yellow flags.
Blacks, mulattoes, and Indians with two-color flags came running to greet them, singing "Glory, Glory, Crown of the Motherland" in Spanish.
Texas, Texas City.
"Your Majesty the Emperor, a telegram from the Columbus. The landing was successful! However."
In the Texas Public Office in Texas City, the Mexican Emperor, who was anxiously waiting for news from the front line, finally received the news of "successful landing" at noon that day!
"But what?" asked Agustin I.
General Che. de Castello, commander of the Royal Guards of Mexico, replied: "Your Majesty, the Columbus reported that the landing force encountered hundreds of blacks and Seminoles Indians and some mixed blood on Gold Beach, as well as a Spanish
The priests all held high the flag of the Kingdom of Spain and sang the national anthem of Spain. The priest's name was Fidel Guevara. He said that he, the Senomi people and black people in Florida were all eagerly looking forward to the Spanish Empire's rescue.
them."
"What? Are they still waiting for the Spaniards? Isn't this too loyal?"
Zhuge Weidao could not understand Spanish, but there was a Ming Dynasty naval officer who could understand Spanish present as a translator. Zhuge Weidao's blurted comment immediately made the entire government office boil.
"True and loyal!"
"I have not forgotten my late master for twenty years, and I don't think there are such righteous people in the West!"
"A true loyal minister!"
"Your Majesty the Emperor, these loyal and righteous people should be greatly praised!"
