This land is located in South America world brim region, a few major issues that produce on the world produce an impact with its rarely, join one battle, world War II thing of casualties of big chaos of this kind of the world concerns with South America it seems that not quite, however what rare person knows is, 19 centuries, be in " world corner " the battle that South America ever also produced a quite miserable intense, somehow for, this war may be bloodier than World War II, this is Paraguay war!
Paraguay? Everybody is likely to the impression of this country now it is a football is kicked well, other does not have any in the Xiaoguo of feeling putting, but in 19 centuries can not be such, paraguay is independent 1811, the dictatorship that Fulangxiya was immersed in later is regnant, fulangxiya is executed " shut Guan Suoguo " policy, although this protected the independence of Paraguay, but restricted its badly also to develop.
Nevertheless the old Luopeisi's president of succession knows this kind of means to won't do, although he continues authoritarian, but very the attention communicates external, expand foreign trade for instance, introduce an advanced technique from the foreign country, paraguay is passed 50 manage for years, economy gets developing, national power increases somewhat, railroad, dockyard, steely factory, school was built rise, in addition Paraguay returns erect cable, published newspaper, right now Paraguay or else is that barren Xiaoguo, and became South America to compare advanced modern powerful nation.
1862, generation is male advocate old Luopeisi dies, its child succession of small Luo Peisi, small Luopeisi is the fellow of an on the make, its want to become " South-American Napoleon " , v/arc be on the throne of old Luo Peisi when, small Luopeisi had held the position of Ba Jun commander-in-chief and cling to country defense minister, its were purchased from Europe include emmagee, cannon inside a large number of new-style weapons, make Ba Jun becomes the army with modern extremely high rate, now his succession president, the first issue that consider is -- it is with the sword plow, open border develop land!
However, south America is more than it is his aspirant, the neighbour of Paraguay -- Brazil and Argentina old man of two South America also the territory of Paraguay covets somewhat, 1864, uruguay civil strife, opposition of Brazilian help Uruguay overturned the government that Uruguay supports, uruguay and Brazilian contradiction become acute.
November 1864, small Luopeisi is right Brazilian declare war, small Luopeisi raises a requirement to Argentina: Lend Daojina ministry land in order to assault Brazil! This nature is rejected by Argentine in stern words, however April 1865, paraguay army still enters Argentine territory forcibly, this brought about Argentina to be opposite its declare war.
Brazil, Argentine on May 1, Uruguay forms the same year the the Three Kingdoms is affined, fight Paraguay in all!
This war is joking simply, total population of the Paraguay before battle has 30-40 only 10 thousand, a standing army team makes an appointment with 2.8-5.7 10 thousand; And ally respect, light is Brazil has 10 million person!
But warlike condition is not lean to one side, just had said, pass number 10 years to manage, paraguay army has become the army with very strong fighting capacity, so allied forces also is casualty disastrous, brazil returns impress even later enrollment of 140 thousand person, the factory works overtime manufacturing ammunition assists front...
And Where is Paraguay? National little power is weak, disastrous defeat of early early front, can stand fast only fort, but allied forces after all force is too powerful, final Paraguay crumple up, in December 1868, allied forces arms faces Paraguay capital inferior Song Sen city, on March 1, 1870, brazilian army shoots dead small Luopeisi, the war ends.
Warlike both sides signed armistice pact on January 9, 1872.
This battle is the most bloody war on South America history, carry this battle, paraguay loss the land of kilometer of 154 thousand square (hold land sum total about 4 into) , and casualties rate is more breathtaking, one die in the last ditch hurts Paraguay 300 thousand person, die among them the half above that population occupies countrywide population! According to statistic, the grown man amount of Paraguay was less than 1871 30 thousand, and the woman has 100 thousand much person, the government is forced to execute a polygyny.
This battles is Paraguay almost destroy national battle, this is afterwar Paraguay becomes a little known Xiaoguo thoroughly, but Paraguay also is very fierce really, cause the casualties of nearly 100 thousand person to the allied forces actually by right of so puny national power.
