Chapter 1473: Occupy Wall Street

Henry. At this time, Prime Minister Bush was in the midst of a most frustrating preparatory meeting for diplomatic negotiations. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoThe Rome Peace Conference was just a week away, and the British and American Empire sent a delegation, led by Henry. Bush's brother James. George W. Bush, his current foreign secretary of empire. However, the British Cabinet of the American Empire was slow to come up with an opinion on the terms of the negotiations.

The war must have been defeated! If you defeat it, you will naturally have to pay reparations...... Well, Donghua has occupied a lot of land, and if you want to fight back, you don't have to think about it in the short term." But signing a treaty agreeing to cede a large part of the country is a thing that will be remembered for a long time. None of the senior Bush and the U.S. Cabinet members are willing to make such a decision. As for the indemnity...... In fact, it is easier to accept than cutting the land. But the problem is that the British American Empire has long been bankrupt! The last indemnity was repaid by borrowing money from the Bank of England, and the debt to the Bank of England has not been paid off until now. Even if Henry. Bush promised to pay reparations, but it is estimated that there is no way to fulfill it, and no one is willing to borrow even if he borrows money. So although this kind of meeting was held day and night, every meeting could not discuss anything. Bush is a little hopeful that the revolution will break out soon, and that he will be able to leave this mess behind sooner.

In the midst of the smoke, Henry felt a swelling pain in his temples. Bush leaned back in his chair behind closed doors, but the annoying voices of discussion continued to penetrate his ears.

"Minnesota cannot be ceded, the United States needs iron ore there, and it must not be ceded to the Chinese." Otherwise, Donghua may develop a strong steel industry in the future. This is the foundation of heavy industry! ā€

"West Virginia and Kentucky can't let it out either. The high-quality coking coal produced there is a scarce resource in Donghua, and Donghua is not short of coal, but there is not much coal for coking. ā€

"The land around the Great Lakes can't be given away! Not only does it have the resources for the development of heavy industry, but it is also an important food producing area! If it is developed, it can feed 100 million people! If you add to that the land in the Mississippi River basin that is controlled by Chinese...... In the future, the population of Donghua is likely to reach 200 million to 300 million! What should we do then? ā€

"But if they refuse to cede the land, will the Chinese be willing to stop the war?" Are they willing to spit out the fat that reaches their mouths? ā€

"Then pay compensation, even if it is a little more......"

"Where is the money to be paid! The treasury has long bottomed out. The British don't have any money to borrow, but Rome has money, but it won't lend it to us! ā€

"Why don't we join Rome too? Big deal already speaks French and Latin, and changed his surname to Roman Catholic ......"

Hearing this advice, Henry. Bush really wants to smile bitterly, saying that French and believing in Catholicism can save the United States? Of course, Napoleon IV would have welcomed the United States, and the reparations might have been waived. But the land still has to be cut out. Roman Caesar Mathilde is the mother of the king of Donghua! Henry. Bush thought to himself, 'Why don't I have such a good mother?' ’

When I was complaining in my heart that my parents were not doing anything, a secretary broke in in a panic. Before he could stand firm, he shouted: "Riot! Someone rioted! Refugees in Brooklyn and workers in New York have rebelled! ā€

As if to prove his words, there was already a faint sound of gunfire outside the window!

'It's finally here!' The people in the room breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. All of them are fed up and are waiting for someone to take over!

"Let's get out of here!" Henry. Bush stood up unhurriedly, "The mob must have come from the direction of the Brooklyn Bridge, let's go to Bronx, there are armed merchant ships flying Roman flags at the East River cargo dock, ready to go, now that the British have not blocked the East River and Long Island Bay, we still have time to leave, but we must ...... quickly"

"Mr. Prime Minister, what do you mean......" The cabinet ministers were all stunned when they heard this. Shouldn't they stick to their posts now?

"Leave now! If your family is in New York, call them immediately to inform them to go to the East River Cargo Terminal, and if your family is not in New York, follow me now. We leave together, and we must not fall into the hands of the British! ā€

"...... in the hands of the British"

Henry. Bush had already stood up and strode to the door of the conference room, and as he went, he instructed his secretary: "Quick, go and prepare the car, find a few more carriages, and the entire cabinet of ministers will leave Wall Street!" When he reached the door, he turned back to a room full of stunned ministers and shouted, "What are you waiting for?" Haven't you had enough? Still want to be a puppet for the British? ā€

At this time, everyone realized that they were now the legitimate government of the United States, and if they fell into the hands of the British, Britain could continue to dominate the United States under their banner.

"Come with me, as soon as we get to New France, we can publicly announce our resignation, and then America may have a better future! This is the last thing we can do for America. ā€

……

Zorge and George. Smith. Patton was now at the forefront of a large group of insurgents, this time in a completely European uprising, beginning with a long speech and incitement, and after completely stirring up the gun-bearing masses, it marched mightily towards Wall Street, where the Cabinet of British and American Empire was located. The passage of the Brooklyn Bridge was briefly blocked by the British, but the British soldiers who guarded the bridge made a fatal mistake by following their procedures for suppressing the population at home. As a result, it immediately attracted a rain of bullets from the Americans! Dozens of people were killed and wounded on the spot, and the ensuing battle also taught the gentlemen from Britain the barbarism of the New World! The advancing American mob overwhelmed the British defenses with only one charge.

Zoerg and Patton then led a mob into Manhattan, and the citizens and workers of Manhattan responded with an uprising almost at the same time, and the whole city became a sea of mobs on this night. Due to the destruction of the communication lines of the British troops in Manhattan, their response was also slightly sluggish. Only a small number of troops took to the streets to suppress it at the first opportunity. Fierce street fighting ensued immediately, but the situation turned out to be extremely unfavorable for the British. Because the inhabitants of the surrounding buildings were all on the side of the insurgents, a rifle was aimed at and fired from behind almost every window, and bullets were fired from all directions, leaving the British troops in the streets with nowhere to hide.

After dealing with the few British troops, the insurgents soon arrived on Wall Street, which became famous in later generations! At this time, Wall Street was not a financial center, and after the end of the First American War, the financial center of the Americas was transferred to the Empress Boulevard in Mexico City. The cabinet departments of the American empire then moved into the high-rise buildings that had belonged to the bankers, and Wall Street became the political center of the United States. Garrisoned at the entrance to Wall Street were not British troops, but New York State militia, all elderly male residents of New York or Brooklyn. They all already know Henry. Prime Minister Bush and key cabinet members left in the other direction. Therefore, there was no resistance, but went directly to the side of the insurgents!

"We've taken Wall Street!" Walking down Wall Street, in the heart of this heterogeneous capitalist world, Zorge excitedly shouted, "Comrades, we are victorious!" We're taking Wall Street! ā€

He was surrounded by jubilant rebels, and no matter what the future holds, they were the undisputed victors now.

George. Smith. Patton limped to Zolg's side, a former general who had been sent by Zorge to take over command of the newly defected New York militia.

"Mr. Zolg, Henry. Prime Minister Bush is gone! Leave with the cabinet dignitaries, whereabouts unknown! ā€

"Bush escaped?" Zolg laughed and said, "That's great! Now Wall Street is ours! General Patton, I now order you to take control of Central Park, Nathan. Forrest has agreed to join us, and I will appoint him as military commissar of the Revolutionary Committee, and you as his deputy. Your task now is to get the British out of New York, while also controlling as many American troops as possible. ā€

There are still millions of troops under the General Headquarters of the British Imperial Army Army! Although there were many British officers among them, the top generals and basic soldiers were mostly Americans, and with their allegiance, the newly baked American Revolutionary Committee would have an army strong enough to stand up to the British in the United States.

"Okay, I'll go!" General Patton nodded excitedly and went with a few of his men.

"General Moser," Zolg called another former Confederate general from Virginia to his side, "You're Huel. The grandson of General Mosser, he is our American hero, and you now have a chance to be as famous as he is! I appoint you commander-in-chief of the New York Insurgents! Can you help us get down New York City? ā€

The old general, who was old and had a gray beard, nodded excitedly and gave a military salute, "No problem!" Mr. President, just wait for my good news! I'm going to get those damn Brits out of New York! ā€

But when he said this, he probably didn't know that two full divisions of British troops were heading from the barracks of Yonkers and Mount Vernon to New York. At the same time, the battleship HMS Hood, the flagship of the British American Fleet moored on the Hudson River, had also pulled anchor and raised its fire, and was heading towards Manhattan with great momentum!
