Sofia Palace, Ferdinand is thinking about the current international situation, the British are jumping into the pit, but this pit may not be able to bury the British Empire, and it is not clear that this empire can be reborn.

Compared to the British, the French are much worse, this time they can only be regarded as a small gain, the usury empire has already crooked the skill points, Germany is in the way of Central Europe, it is almost impossible for them to become bigger.

The losses suffered by Austria-Hungary in the world war were too great, and it had to pay war reparations, coupled with the national contradictions at home, it could not recover at all in twenty or thirty years.

Although Japan kicked away the United States as a roadblock, it offended several major powers in the world, especially the British, because of the Japanese Army's private actions, their North American strategy has increased several times.

In the next ten years, it is estimated that the Japanese government will have to be a man with its tail between its legs, otherwise the British Empire will definitely let them understand the majesty of the world hegemon!

The civil war continued, and Nicholas II temporarily gained the upper hand, but with the joint efforts of the Moscow government and the new tsarist government, his advantage no longer existed, and it could not be fought in the short term!

Iron has to be hard! In the short term, the international situation is still very favorable to Bulgaria, and the major powers are all held back by their own affairs, and Ferdinand decided to officially launch the strategy of the Asia Minor peninsula, that is, the Fourth Five-Year Plan!

Ferdinand smiled and said, "Jira, inform the cabinet to meet at the palace tomorrow afternoon!" ”

……

In Nevada, USA, after paying a heavy price, Yusaku Uehara finally completed the meeting with the besieged Uchiyama Kojiro, but at this time the Second Army had already suffered more than half of the casualties.

With the abandonment of the Wilson government, the U.S. Army also fell into chaos, and they also had a dispute over whether to continue fighting with the Japanese, and the government announced an armistice, but did not order him to stop the attack!

This made Pershing very distressed, and he sent several telegrams to ask questions, but did not get a clear answer, and it was obvious that the coalition negotiating delegation had automatically ignored the Japanese troops who were still in the war.

If it was a normal U.S. military, it is estimated that Pershing would have made up his mind a long time ago, but most of his subordinates are cannon fodder troops, and no matter how much he dies, he will not feel distressed, plus several state governments have put pressure on him to kill this Japanese army!

Yusaku Uehara helped them make up their minds, and after the Japanese army completed the division, they launched a counterattack, causing the American army to retreat one after another.

Now the Japanese army has let go of its scruples, and it is a bit of a broken jar and a broken can, and they will grab it if they have no supplies, and they will fight fiercely with the American army on the one hand, and on the other hand, they will not forget to scourge the surrounding small towns.

They even created a servant army, all of which were forcibly recruited from the local area, and forced them to fight with the American army under the threat of their families.

Unable to wait for a reply from the Allied Headquarters, the Japanese army was also in a state of contradiction, and they did not know whether to continue fighting.

Kojiro Uchiyama, who had just been rescued, opened his mouth and asked, "Your Excellency Marshal, what should we do now, continue to fight with the Americans, or retreat back to join the main forces of the coalition forces?" ”

Yusaku Uehara sighed and said: "Domestic call, our previous attack on Wells has caused the empire to fall into a very passive state in diplomacy, and the War Department means that we want to defeat the main force of the US army head-on and use our strength to gain the right to speak!" ”

Such a decision is very normal in the eyes of the Japanese officers, it doesn't matter if it's wrong, the victor is not to blame, and the defeated need to be held responsible!

Everyone fell into silence, it was not that they didn't work hard, but there were too many American troops on the other side, and they couldn't tell the winner for a while.

Okamura Ninji suddenly said: "Maybe we don't have to follow the rules, and no one stipulates that our battlefield is in Nevada, if we can send troops to attack the rear of the US army, maybe this war can end soon!" ”

Kami-shirt retorted: "Our troops are insufficient, the American troops on the opposite side are four times our strength, if we divide our forces again, we will be in danger!" ”

Gangcun Ningci said coldly: "Isn't there still a servant army?" Get more servants, and even if we fail, we have enough hostages in our hands to allow us to retreat calmly! ”

This is also one of the weaknesses of the US military, if the Japanese army really captured dozens of American people as meat shields, Pershing would not dare to order to continue the attack, otherwise the military tribunal will not be able to pass the hurdle, provided that the US government still exists!

"Okay, bet!" Yusaku Uehara made up his mind

If he doesn't win this battle, it will be impossible for the country to spare him, and if he pokes such a big hole, there must be an explanation! But there is also a rule in Japan, and that is that the winner can be an exception!

The grassroots officers who provoked the First Sino-Japanese War and the Russo-Japanese War not only did not receive any punishment, but rose one by one.

Why should an officer who provokes a war without authorization, or even disobeys orders, be promoted? Just because the war is won, and if they win, they are heroes, and heroes are not to blame!

……

The Washington Conference also began, unlike the historical Washington Conference, the negotiations at the Washington Conference went very smoothly, and Wilson, who was also the protagonist, now he is not even qualified to participate in the meeting, simply put, he is under house arrest, if it weren't for the need for a president with a black cauldron, he is now a dead man!

Negotiation? There is no negotiation, as long as the US government announces the dissolution of the federal government, and the rest of the things do not need their participation, not even surrender!

There is no point in capitulating a government that is about to close, they can't afford to pay a penny, and the war has been fought until now, and the dollar is almost equivalent to straw paper!

According to the plan of the British, the six states of New England in the northeast corner of the United States, seven states in the Mid-Atlantic region, and four states in the southeast will all become independent states and join the British Commonwealth.

Namely: the Kingdom of New England (Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts (Massachusetts), Rhode Island, Connecticut);

Atlantic kingdoms (New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, Washington, D.C.);

Kingdom of North America (North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida).

Of course, the king is concurrently held by George V himself, the specific system is to be determined, these problems have been negotiated by the British and the eastern consortium of the United States, and everyone's interests will be protected, provided that they must support the British Union and pay taxes honestly!

Of course, after the dismemberment of the United States, there will not be only these three kingdoms, but the British Empire is really holding on, even if they reach a compromise with the local consortium, they will not dare to eat anymore, and they will really choke to death if they come again!

You must know that the American consortium also encouraged them to annex the Great Lakes region, and many people in Britain were also ready to move, but Lloyd-George still found the problem and decisively persuaded the domestic parliamentarians.

It really can't be more, no matter how many people there are, they will be anti-customer-oriented! Now that the three kingdoms are united, their strength is already on par with England, and if there is one more, it is estimated that this battle between primary and secondary will be a problem!

The Great Lakes region also includes: Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin, where the largest industrial base in the United States is located.

The greed is greedy, and in the end the British still gave up, just the three kingdoms at the moment, they are not so obedient, the states are armed, if it were not for the strong anti-dialogue of the American consortium, the British really don't mind letting each state be independent.

It is estimated that the relationship between these three kingdoms will not be better in the future, so how will the British Empire rule them?

The Great Lakes region will be independent, but the king will still be elected from the British crown, and the British Empire's control over them will still be indispensable!

The southern regions of the United States: Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, and Louisiana, will also become an independent country.

The French have a strong influence in the local area, but unfortunately they are a republic, and if they want to be a federal state, it is not suitable? You can't be an ally with this newly created country, can you? The French Republic still has to face it, not all countries are qualified to be allies with them!

The plains of the central United States include: Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma, Nebraska, South Dakota, and North Dakota, and three separate states will be created.

No way, the Great Plains of the United States is 4,800 kilometers long from north to south, 480~1,120 kilometers wide from east to west, and covers an area of about 2.9 million square kilometers.

Rich in mineral resources and suitable for food production, if such a natural choice is given to a country, it is estimated that it will not be long before it will develop and have the strength to unify the United States again.

Rocky Mountains: Montana, Idaho, Nevada, Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, these five states are one country in turn.

Pacific Coast: Washington, Oregon, California, these three states are one kingdom in turn. Especially in California, Ferdinand has been peeping for a long time, and now the layout has not stopped!

Southwest: Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, but since Texas is independent, the remaining two states are one country.

In addition to the already independent state of Aris, that's already thirteen countries, and that's not counting the Hawaiian region, which is not yet a state in the United States.

I have to say that the Americans have a thick foundation, even if it is divided into thirteen parts, there are still many big countries, except for Arisca, the development potential of other countries is not smaller than that of Italy!

Now it is a battle of systems, there is no doubt that the constitutional monarchy has the absolute upper hand, who makes the current constitutional monarchy more countries?

There were originally only two representatives of the republic, one in the United States and one in France, and now only France is left alone, and the royalists in France have been strong for a long time!

Ferdinand is sending people to persuade the three major royalists in France to join forces to put pressure on the French government, under the pretext of course, to let them launch the royal family they support to fight for the king in the Americas!

At least the major royal families in Europe are interested in this new batch of thrones, those with strength must fight, and those without strength must fight, even if it is an empty throne, there are still a bunch of children in everyone's family?

If according to Ferdinand's idea, all the states of the United States would be made independent, so that everyone would not have to fight, and everyone would have a share, but unfortunately the British would not agree!

In order to gain the support of the American consortia, they must ensure that the territory of the three kingdoms cannot be too small. Transnational countries have to pay tariffs, which will damage the interests of the consortium!

Since the area of the kingdom controlled by the British is large, other countries must also be large, and if it is too small, it is easy to be eaten up by the British Empire, and everyone is not at ease!

Of course, this is only a preliminary plan, and it is acceptable to everyone, but it is difficult to say whether the Americans will accept it or not!

For this reason, Ferdinand also suggested that all states in the United States, as long as they want to be independent, should approve it, and such an artificial forced merger of families obviously violates the principle of freedom of others and is not in line with the development of the times!
