On August 11, 2768 (1927 AD), Venezuela, the Paria Peninsula.

The Paria Peninsula is a small peninsula located in the northeast of the country. As long as you cross the Longkou Strait with a width of 19 kilometers, you can reach the opposite Trinidad (now belonging to the Caribbean State of the United States). The Paria Peninsula is a beautiful place. In the later generations of the original time and space, the Paria Peninsula National Park was established in the area. It is a famous tourist attraction, especially for its rich birds. It is said that there are nearly 400 species of birds inhabited here.

However, the people in front of them obviously had no intention of enjoying the scenery. There were about 500 people in this group, carrying more than 30 cars and armored vehicles, as well as more than 500 mules and horses. Among them, men, women, young and old were both. Most of them were wearing Venezuelan military uniforms and weapons, but whether from their panic expressions or their messy clothes, it was obvious that this was a defeated army.

That's right, this is a defeated army, probably the last established army in Venezuela. If someone familiar with Venezuela is present, you will definitely be able to recognize it at a glance. This army is the "Presidential Guard" that is notorious among the people of Venezuela.

The captain of the guard Molina ran to a Hummer off-road vehicle in panic and said anxiously: "It's not good to report to the president. The bridge in front has been destroyed. Although the river is not wide, people can rush over, but these cars cannot..."

An old man in military uniform frowned and looked at the convoy beside him. Half of them were trucks, which contained his savings from years of money. How could he throw them away? "No, these cars must be taken over, otherwise we will go to the United States to be refugees?"

This old man is the president of Venezuela, the famous dictator Juan Vicente Gomez. He served as commander-in-chief of the Venezuelan armed forces in 1902. He served as vice president since 1903. In December 1908, he launched a coup to seize power. He improved relations with neighboring countries and Western countries, expanded foreign trade, and allowed foreign companies to obtain large areas of land for lease. After discovering oil near Lake Malacaipo in 1913, he encouraged foreign investment and tried his best to safeguard his own interests, and the oil industry developed rapidly. By the 1920s, Venezuela became one of the world's major oil producers and exporters, and paid off all foreign debts in 1923. He also established a well-organized and well-equipped army and guard team.

It should be said that this guy is good at farming, but he has implemented a harsh rule within. While attacking dissidents, he eliminated local forces, banned political parties and trade unions, and suppressed progressive forces. His methods are very vicious and he is called the "Andean tyrant". In addition, Gomez's personal wealth has continued to increase, becoming the largest rich man in South America.

In the history of original time and space, he has been firmly governing Venezuela since 1908 and knew that he had passed away in 1935. However, in his current plane, his luck was not so good, and Colombia next door came over.

The full-scale war in South America has been going on for more than half a year, and all parties are fighting more and more fiercely. Originally, according to the mainstream view of the world, the two small countries that could not stand were Paraguay and Ecuador, especially Paraguay, a small landlocked country. The bloody war 55 years ago almost made their men die. Now the total number of people in the country is only 850,000. The population of Bolivia is almost three times that of theirs, and its economic strength is far greater than that of them. No matter how you look at it, Paraguay is most likely to kneel the fastest in this melee.

But the development of the situation is completely different. The first thing that could not stand was Venezuela. You should know that Venezuela was very powerful at this time, because of the money in hand and the excess arms that the gangsters had taken off after the World War, Gomez equipped his army with quite excellent weapons, which can be said to be second only to the top three in South America, and even above Colombia, at least on paper.

Originally, according to the analysis of military experts from various countries, although Colombia and Venezuela have twice the population, they do not have the upper hand in equipment. Even if they can rely on national strength to win in the end, it will definitely take a long time, and it is normal to play for several years.

But the result was that military experts from various countries broke their glasses. Venezuela was beaten to retreat step by step and collapsed, and many troops surrendered in an established manner. At the same time, there was a mutiny in the country, and it only took half a year to kneel down. This was all because of morale. There was no way. No matter how good the equipment was, there was no way to fight without morale.

Because President Gomez has been too ruthless in recent years, but he is not thorough in his ability to attract hatred, and he is too greedy, so he can only enjoy the benefits of selling resources, which is his confidants. As for more civilians, they have not enjoyed it at all, and the people are quite resentful. If in peacetime, he could suppress all oppositions with powerful means he has mastered, but once he encounters an invasion of foreign enemies, he will be done.

Moreover, Venezuela has only been a century-old country, lacks tradition, and its cohesion is not strong. Colombia and Venezuela are the same language and race, and the banner they are under is also "reunified", which is different from the general meaning of foreign invasion. Most of the officers and soldiers of the Venezuelan army do not want to work hard for Gomez, and their morale is sluggish. Colombia and some mysterious organizations have led a large number of leaders, and the consequences of Venezuela are no longer difficult to imagine.

On July 28, the main Colombian army, led the party's support, conquered the Venezuelan capital Caracas. Gomez fled with a few confidants and family members. Of course, Gomez also had a backer, and the United States supported him, but the Americans couldn't help but rescue him directly. Or they didn't expect that Gomez would lose in a flash and didn't react at all.

When the Americans reacted, Gomez was already out of control and the situation was out of control. So the Americans asked them to flee to the beach, and the United States would send ships to meet him.

But Gomez and the others unfortunately encountered mutiny civilian armed forces again. These people were the remnants of political enemies he killed back then, and the hatred was as deep as the sea. If they fell into the hands of these people, the consequences would be much more serious than being caught by the Colombians. In addition, because of the massive wealth he had accumulated over the years, it also became a huge bait. Many mercenaries who had no hatred with him, and civilian armed forces surrounded them like sharks smelling blood.

So, in order to avoid the search and siege of Colombia, the rebels and civilian armed forces, Gomez had to walk the path miserably, hide from Tibet, and finally circled around and turned into the Paria Peninsula. After arriving here, Gomez finally felt relieved that it was only a 19-kilometer-wide strait from Trinidad, the United States. As long as you get to the beach and send a signal to the Americans, the American ship will come by at most an hour.

Venezuela can't stay here, but after plundering so much wealth, he can be a Yugong even when he comes to the United States. Besides, he may have a chance to make a comeback in the future.

They soon came to the river to check. The river was not big, with a surface of about five or six meters wide. Originally there was a small bridge here, but now there is only the piers in the middle.

Molina said anxiously: "President, this river is not big, and people can pass by, but if we want to pass the car, we must repair the bridge immediately, otherwise those damn traitors will chase you."

Gomez asked with an ugly face: "How long will it take to repair the bridge?"

"We can get a few tree trunks to build a temporary bridge, which will take about 2 hours..." Molina said.

"Then I'll ask someone to go and practice immediately. I'll give you an hour..."

As soon as Gomez finished speaking, he heard gunfire sounds around him.

"Dadada...Dadada..." Before Gomez could react, a machine gun fire sounded from the other side of the river. More than a dozen blood flowers emerged from Gomez's body, falling down like a broken sack. The "Andean Tyrant" lying on the ground with blood in blood, his eyes wide open, as if he could not believe that he was just dead like this...

On August 12, the Colombian government announced that Gomez, the head of the Venezuelan pseudo-government, was shot dead by the rebels, and the Venezuelan region was "about to be liberated."

On August 31, most of Venezuela was occupied by Colombia.

September 12, Longhai Line.

A passenger train leaving Hanjing to Dihua was speeding on the Longhai Line.

Although the war in South America is fierce, it is just a topic of conversation for most Chinese people. Everyone does whatever they should do, and has not been affected.

Bai Ye sat in his seat and looked at the scenery that was rapidly regressing outside the window, and couldn't help but feel a lot of thoughts. He was born in a small village in Anhui in 1901. Like most Chinese people, his family was poor. In his vague memory, he had never eaten enough in his childhood. If he developed according to normal history, he would have struggled in extreme cold like most other people. If he was lucky, he could grow up to adulthood. If he was not lucky, he might die due to famine, war, disease, etc.

When he was eight years old, an army with red flags arrived in his hometown. The army was very kind to them and even gave them candy to their children. Bai Ye took a candy wrapped in wax paper in his hands. The first time he ate such delicious food. He had a full meal that day. His family got his own land and was sent to school. In the school, he learned that all these changes were brought by "General Wen".

Since then, his fate has changed, or the fate of the entire China has changed. After that, his family has become better and better. He, his family and neighbors have had a full meal, put on new clothes, and soon moved into the new village and lived in a new small building. Everyone said that such good days were brought by President Wen, and since then, "General Wen" has become the sun in Bai Ye's heart.

Baiye was almost nine years old when he started his first grade, but he listened to the teacher very much and studied hard, and soon caught up with the progress. After that, he gradually showed his talent in learning, especially mathematics. Baiye spent three years to finish the primary school course, and this score shocked the school teachers. Then, he spent another four years to finish the middle school course, and successfully passed the college entrance examination with high scores and entered Southwest University of Technology to study.

Baiye's talent has been out of control. In 1923, he completed the doctoral examination in mathematics. He was 22 years old. Later, he was absorbed into the Mathematics Branch of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and participated in a key project team to study some very confidential and high-end things. In March this year, the task of their project team was completed, and their research results were put into practical application. However, it is hard for him to imagine how effective those things are and how far they can reach. After all, he is just a mathematician.

A few days ago, he was called to a meeting by his leader. At the meeting, he saw General Wen for the first time. After the meeting, General Wen met them specifically. Then they were sent out to participate in a very important experiment on the Gobi Desert in Xinjiang. It is said that this experiment was actually used by his achievements.

At this time, the train had entered Gansu, which had a desert climate. It should be very deserted around. Although Baiye was a mathematician, he still understood this common sense. But what surprised Baiye was that along the way, he saw many trees and grasslands, with lush and lush trees, which did not look like a desert climate at all.

"Professor Chen, why doesn't the scenery outside look like a desert climate? Isn't this a desert area? How could the vegetation be so good?" So he asked his companions on the opposite side in confusion. Several carriages on this train were all covered by the top, and they were all his family members, or those who went to that place this time, all of them were confidential personnel, so the conversation was easy, as long as they didn't talk about things related to their tasks. Although Baiye has been staying in the research institute for many years, he still has a sense of confidentiality.

The person in the same box with him is Chen Yilong, a visiting professor at Communication University of China. I heard that he has made many movies and TV shows and is very famous in the film and television industry. However, Bai Ye is not a star chaser or a movie controller. He has no idea about things outside his circle and just thinks that this name is familiar. He still doesn't understand why he wants to find someone from the film and television industry to come for this experiment.

"Hahahaha, Dr. Bai, you are deaf and you are doing research wholeheartedly..." Chen Yilong is a handsome guy in his early thirties. He smiled and said, "The northwest began to change a few years ago. These plants are not ordinary. Many of them are the latest achievements of my country's biological sciences. They are drought-resistant, cold-resistant, and heat-resistant, and have deep roots, grow rapidly, and can transform soil. In addition, it is the credit of water conservancy projects. In recent years, several key water conservancy projects in my country have been in the northwest. Over the years, they have begun to achieve results. The current northwest is much better than before..."

Baiye is a technical mate, while Chen Yilong is the exact opposite of him. Professor Chen has been running around the world for a long time in order to make movies. He knows much more about the changes in society than Baiye.

He talked endlessly, which made Bai Ye stunned. Finally, the Professor Chen said: "Our DreamWorks Film and Television Company has filmed more than a dozen documentaries and promotional videos on these themes. I will leave you a phone number. You should be interested in seeing it. When you return to Hanjing, come to me. I have all the videos of these films. You can tell if you take them to watch them."

"Okay, then I'll trouble you. We've been too busy in recent years and don't even have time to watch the news broadcast..." Bai Ye said happily.
