In the days that followed, even the steps in front of the home of former Prime Minister Pete Jr., who had theoretically been at home, were about to be flattened by lobbyists. These lobbyists are those who want to keep the peace, such as representatives of the textile industry, part of the banking industry, and part of the machinery manufacturing industry. There are also some who hope to start a war as soon as possible, such as some agricultural enterprises, some liquor companies, and a large number of spokesmen for military enterprises.

The same is true of other politicians, every member of parliament, whether it is a member of the House of Lords or a member of the House of Commons, has a carriage parked in front of their house.

Under the pretext of "the interests of the country and the people," every lobbyist demanded that these parliamentarians take one action or another, and at the same time, they also consciously or unconsciously stated that they would not forget the deep friendship between them and would definitely be worthy of their friends.

Little Pitt found that only a little more than half a year had passed, but the political situation in Britain had changed dramatically.

In the years that had passed, thanks to the efforts of Pitt Jr., the otherwise loose Tory Party had become increasingly united, and had become more and more able to act as a whole in Parliament. And his old adversary, Fox, though he had a sharp mouth, was able to question the Tories in Parliament, including Pitt Jr., every time he was in parliament, and even had to resort to things like, "There are things we think we know, we do know, there are things we do know, we think we know, there are things that we ...... You get it clear" and so on. However, by virtue of unity, the Tories continued to defeat the Whigs on major issues, and even succeeded in provoking several Whig infighting and splits.

In the face of Fox, Pete Jr. could have said something like: "In a parliamentary debate, I have never won; But in a parliamentary vote, I never lost. ”

Gone are the days when you could impress members with a moving speech in parliament and change the outcome of a vote in one fell swoop. In the case of large logarithms, the outcome of the vote is decided long before the vote, and even if someone jumps back during the voting process, the reason for the jump is never an exciting speech. Any politician who does not understand this and is still nostalgic for the good old days can only suffer defeat again and again.

But today, little Pete finds that those who are behind the times seem to have become themselves. He noticed that in just over half a year, a deep rift had appeared in the already united Tory Party.

Some parliamentarians were staunchly opposed to the resumption of war with France because they, or their families, or their "friends" had invested in textiles or other industries that had benefited greatly from trade with Europe. They even felt that it was not unacceptable for Ireland to remain nominally within the United Kingdom, giving them some "autonomy". It has also been argued that the United Kingdom's policy towards Ireland over the years has been fundamentally wrong, that the United Kingdom has indeed been very unfair to Ireland, and that it is an intolerable mistake to apply the treatment of barbarians to the treatment of Irish people, who are also civilized people.

The other part of the parliamentarians, because they, or their families, or their friends, invested in arms and other industries, and firmly demanded a resumption of war with France. They even felt that the MPs who opposed the war were traitors to England and should be dragged out for ten minutes.

Little Pete knew that if he had to vote for it now, it would almost certainly be that the entire Tory Party would split in an instant, and the Whig guys would laugh their teeth off.

In fact, even now, the Whig guys, especially Fox, are already having fun.

In the aftermath of this incident, several die-hard Tories MPs who had never come to his home before had expressed their goodwill to him through a number of channels, saying that they wanted Fox's Whigs to be on the side of peace if the parliament was to vote on peace. Of course, in return, they would also support some of the Whigs' ideas, such as on some issues in Ireland, and even on some issues of religious policy, they were willing to give the Whigs some support.

In the past, Fox had only seen the Whigs come out of the two or five boys, and they were out of two or five boys in groups. Many times, counting the votes on the night before voting, I felt as if we still had a certain advantage, and when I voted at noon the next day, I found that the number of votes was not even half of the others. When did you ever see that the Tories would also produce traitors?

"I thought that only a party like us, the Whigs, who were predominantly civilian, would produce traitors. I didn't expect it, I didn't expect that those human-looking nobles of your Tories would also be two or five boys! ”

However, although Fox was full of contempt for these mercenary aristocrats in his heart, the experience of fighting in the political arena (being beaten by Pete Jr.) for so many years still made him deeply realize the importance of getting more people than enemies.

So, despite his contempt for these traitors, Fawkes was very kind and received these envoys very warmly, and expressed to them the image of his willingness to cooperate.

So Pete Jr. first discovered that the "England Press Union" was beginning to split. The first to jump back was the "England Economic Watch" in the "England News League", which benchmarked against "Businessman of London".

On April 1, the "English Economic Observer" actually published such a report: "Fair treatment of Irish talents is the key to Ireland's long-term peace and stability".

In this report, the English Economic Watch first reviews the history of how Britain lost North America, and points out that it was because of Britain's expropriation in the North American colonies that led to the independence of the North American colonies.

It then compares it with North America with detailed figures, and concludes: "Our government has plundered the Irish even more than the North American colonies." ”

The article then builds on this and asks the question: "Does the Government of the United Kingdom really consider Ireland to be part of the United Kingdom?" Or just treat it as a colony? Does the Government of the United Kingdom really consider the Irish to be citizens of this country? Or did he see the equally white-skinned Irish as black Africans? ”

This shot was completely unexpected by the "English News League". It was only three days before The Times Review's rebuttal to the English Economic Observer's report was organized. Then the "Union of the Free Press of England" immediately joined in, and several newspapers scolded each other.

The Times Review accused the Economic Watch of England of betraying the motherland. The English Economic Observer denounced The Times Review as a "lackey of tyranny" and a "mouthpiece of warmongers".

Then Free England of the Free Press Alliance of England said: "Although we do not agree with the English Economic Watch on many issues, we believe that the English Economic Observer is still a good media with a position, attitude and conscience." As for the appalling accusation of 'betrayal of the motherland' in the Times Review, it reminds us of Samuel Johnson's famous quote: 'Patriotism is the last hiding place for the scoundrels.' ’

As for "Fair Treatment of Irish Talent is the Key to the Long-term Peace and Stability of Ireland", it is of course a good article, a good article full of real, even higher humanitarianism and higher patriotism. We couldn't agree more with this article; We are all equally full of contempt for those 'patriotic thieves' who seek to provoke a civil war, who try to bring us to flesh and blood with our fellow Irish, whose plot cannot succeed......"

Faced with such a situation, both Pitt Jr. and Addington realized that Ireland could not be locked down immediately at this time. First of all, the time is not quite ripe; The Irish had a good job of mass production, and they should have enough potatoes to eat for a while. Starting the lockdown now will give them and the French more time to react. Moreover, the Navy's mine experiments have only just been completed, and it will take quite a long time for production to be increased enough to blockade the shores of Ireland. Second, such an act is likely to be directly within the UK and, more importantly, split within the Tory.

On the other hand, after such a toss, the so-called "secrets" of the British Navy have also been made all over Europe, and no one knows about it.

When Napoleon got the news, he immediately called Joseph and asked him about what to do.

"Mines. The British are good enough to come up with something like this. Well, you ask me how to clear mines? Well, this is not technically impossible, it's just troublesome, like clearing mines, it's dangerous, it's troublesome, it's much more troublesome than laying mines. ”

"You know this, too? To this day, Verdun has not been cleared. Napoleon scolded, "Why did you bury so much in the first place? ”

"This is the result of our slow arrangement under peaceful conditions." Joseph said, "Draining mines is more troublesome than this, and in that area, we will not have the right to control the sea, so that we can clear mines quietly and leisurely." So demining or something, you don't have to think about it. ”

"What then?" Napoleon asked.

"Napoleon, who do you think is more afraid of mines, us or the British, in comparison?" Joseph asked.

"British, of course...... How can we get this thing out of Joseph? Napoleon asked.

"As long as there is an allocation, I can get one out in another month." Joseph replied, "Of course, if it's just to scare the British, tomorrow I'll be able to get a model that will scare them to death." ”
