Chapter 423: The Crossing of the Sea Shows the True Colors of Heroes
"Hahaha......"
Guo Ye laughed out loud and said, "Mr. Lincoln, are you kidding?" Naturalization of the United States? Do you think this is even a little bit possible? ”
Lincoln smiled: "Of course, as long as General Guo is willing, we will welcome it with both hands at any time, General Grant even said that he is willing to give up the position of commander-in-chief of the federal army to you, hehe, a genius like you is really buried in the Qing Kingdom, if you are an American, the United States will give you the broadest stage, so that you can show your ambitions!" ”
Guo Ye looked solemn and replied: "Mr. Lincoln, thank you for your attention to me, and thank you General Grant, however, as a general in China, I can only live my own value in China, without me America is still the United States, and it will still rise in thirty years and become a decisive party; However, without me, the Qing Kingdom can only sink step by step, in the United States, I am just a stepping stone on the road to rise, but in China, I will be the iron-blooded leader who leads China's re-emergence, hundreds of years ago, China was at the top of the world, hundreds of years later, I, Guo Ye, can also restore China to its former glory, this is my dream. It is true that China is now lagging behind, but the vicissitudes of the sea can show the true character of a hero, if China is still at the peak, then what do you want me to do as a hero? At this time, China is the best stage for me to stretch my ambitions! ”
"Good!"
After listening to Guo Ye's words, Grant couldn't help but pick up his thumb and shouted: "The sea is crossing, Fang shows his true character as a hero!" General Guo's courage is really enviable to me. Admired very much. It is worthy of thinking that the iron-blooded soldier! ”
Chen Hai and Gao Qi, Luo Bicheng, and Wang Haonan standing next to Guo Ye. It is even more enthusiastic to listen to, the vicissitudes of the sea, showing the true character of the hero! Yes, this dejected China can only rise again in the hands of heroes like Big Brother, and we, our brothers, are for this dream. Fang just gathered around the eldest brother, for this dream, that is, to throw his head and spill blood, and he is also willing!
Lincoln shook his head helplessly and replied, "Okay, General Guo, I also hope that one day in the future, I can see China rise again in the world, and then the United States and China will be one east and one west." Look at the world and think about it. That's fascinating! ”
Guo Ye smiled faintly: "Mr. Lincoln, I naturally have my own way for the rise of China, but the rise of your country is to be placed after winning this civil war, however, it seems that your government is now in a comprehensive disadvantage, hehe, if the northern government loses, then everything will disappear, with the policy of the Confederate government, I am afraid that the big capitalists of your country will flee the United States, do you think I am right?" ”
Lincoln's face turned red, yes, the current civil war, because the Southern Confederacy has the secret support of Britain and France, and the support of the Northern Federal Government is quite hard, even if the North is strong, it is still difficult to turn back the situation, once the Southern rebel party really wins the final victory, I am afraid that the rise of the United States will really be far away, and the entire United States will become the backyard of Britain and France, at the mercy of others!
Grant frowned and said: "General Guo, that's not necessarily, I don't believe it, our federal government army has never been the opponent of the Confederate army!" ”
Lincoln waved his hand and replied, "Grant, we don't need to deceive ourselves, we really lack an adequate response right now, General Guo, and I hope you can give us advice on how the federal government can turn the current situation around." ”
Guo Ye smiled and replied: "From ancient times to the present, whether it is the United States or other countries, in the war, the decisive victory or defeat is the absolute strength, and the other is the backing of the people, your government occupies the northern region, with a strong industrial base and a large population, far from being comparable to the southern government, your country has occupied a certain initiative, the only problem is that Britain and France are secretly intervening, making the Southern Confederate government override the north in terms of strength in the short term, however, I think this is only temporary, British and French aid cannot last forever. ”
Lincoln said in a deep voice: "Then, General Guo, when will the secret assistance between Britain and France end?" As long as they help for a day, it will be difficult for our civil war to turn the situation around! ”
Guo Ye replied: "That's not necessarily, if you want Britain and France to stop aiding, there is only one way, that is, so that Britain and France can't see hope, how can you not see hope, naturally your government occupies the undoubted initiative in the war." ”
Grant smiled bitterly and replied, "Take the initiative? It's hard......"
Guo Ye laughed and said: "General Grant, you are just a soldier, not a qualified politician, as I just said, in addition to strength, there is also the will of the people, that is, the justice of the war, you want to liberate the black slaves, you are standing on the moral high ground, with the support of the people, what else is impossible?" ”
Grant was stunned for a moment and hesitated: "Can this still determine the direction of the war?" ”
"Of course!"
Guo Ye replied: "This is even the most powerful basic condition, General Grant, Mr. Lincoln, the reason why it is difficult for your country to recover the situation now is because the people of your country, especially the serfs, are not enthusiastic about the civil war, and for them, they have no personal experience!" That is, you have not done enough to emancipate the black slaves! If you want to change the situation, the best way to do it, apart from asking for help internationally, is to enlist the support of the people, especially the support of the black people! ”
Guo Ye knew very well that at this time, Lincoln's "Emancipation Proclamation" had not yet been officially issued, and it was precisely this "Emancipation Proclamation" that pushed the federal government to a victorious position, and the current Lincoln obviously hadn't noticed this!
When Lincoln heard this, his eyes lit up, Guo Ye was right, he had been thinking about this matter, it stands to reason that in order to free the slaves, why is the enthusiasm of the slaves still not high? It seems that it is not enough to do it yourself!
Guo Ye continued: "Mr. Lincoln, I suggest that you immediately introduce relevant laws and policies to completely lift the restrictions on the personal movement of slaves in all southern states, give them legal freedom, and at the same time conscript blacks into the army, Mr. Lincoln, blacks hate slavery the most, and their strong physique and tenacious character enable them to become the bravest soldiers, and your government can obtain a steady stream of soldiers, victory is just around the corner!" ”
