Chapter 1468: The Ghost Is Wandering in America
"In other words, in your opinion, most Americans will not agree with our decision to make peace?"
In a conference room at Windsor Castle, in front of Benjamin. In front of a large group of high-ranking British cabinet officials, Disraeli and a large number of senior British cabinet officials, Prince Albert, who had just recovered from a serious illness, confronted James who had come from New York. Bush asked mildly. ----
Under the Prince's somewhat mocking gaze, James. Bush was naturally very unhappy in his heart, but he still bothered himself to answer.
"Yes, that's right, the people of America will think that they have been betrayed by Europe, that they shed their blood for the benefit of white Europeans, but that they did not receive the support they deserve."
"Britain has sent more than 800,000 troops to North America!" Prince Albert remained silent. "A large amount of weapons, ammunition and military spending are also provided."
"There were some British people in North America who fought alongside us," said James. Bush smiled coldly, "But most of them are now in New York, Philadelphia, Toronto, Pittsburgh, Boston, and Baltimore!" ”
In addition to the British, who were mixed into the British-American 6th Army, the rest of the British troops who were still under the full control of the British Empire, whether they were already on the battlefield or those who had rushed to North America in 6, were now transferred to some major cities in the northeast of North America by the British as the commander-in-chief of the British-American 6th Army! No matter how critical the front line was, Admiral Taysage refused to send another British soldier to the rescue.
James. It was for this reason that Bush rushed from New York to London to "complain." Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived in London, he heard the news that Britain had entrusted the Roman Empire to mediate the war and formally sued for peace with China.
"They're protecting the people there." Prince Albert said lightly.
Then. As if to show their own anger and that of the American people. James. Bush snorted coldly: "If you want to protect the people of North America, you should go to the front line and fight the enemy." And not martial law in the cities in the rear, where there are no enemies, only the people! ”
"Martial law is to prevent anarchist sabotage! During this time, the order in the rear of North America was very chaotic and already seriously threatened the ongoing war at the front! Prince Albert said lightly, "The anarchists are the enemies of the United States, and if they are allowed to succeed, the United States will lose the opportunity for revival!" ”
James. Bush glared fiercely at Prince Albert. If vision can kill, this prince has been dead I don't know how many times!
However, Prince Albert's "anarchists" are not groundless, and the middle and lower classes of the American Empire have always been very powerful. The Bush brothers' party is called the Socialist Workers' Party of America, and its basis is the lower strata of workers, peasants, and a section of the petty bourgeoisie. Also under the banner of "workers" was the American Workers' Association, the American branch of the International Workingmen's Association, led by Friedrich Friedrich. Adolph. Zolg and Joseph. Patrick. Mcdonald.
But the American Workers' Association did not raise the banner of white supremacy, nor did it form a political party to participate in the congressional elections, but focused on the labor movement. The American Workers' Association also took a firm stance against the establishment of a monarchy in the United States by Queen Victoria and the Empress of the American Empire. From time to time, some demonstrations will be held to protest and sing "The Star-Spangled Banner Never Falls" or something, and the American people have long been surprised.
And in the case of successive defeats on the front. Naturally, the American Workers' Association, like all the opposition forces, began to pour sewage on the establishment, and of course attacked Britain and the monarchy. Calling for the restoration of the United States of America or something. However, they were quick to talk and did not intend to really rebel against the revolution - now the mess in the United States is too bad, and whoever takes over will have to face the problem of ending the war with Donghua, and will definitely "betray the country", and Zorge will not take over the addiction of the great leader at this time. The best time is when the British-American Empire has sold out the interests of the American people.
However, under the pretext of "anarchists" making trouble, the British ** team stationed in major cities in northeastern North America, and also imposed martial law. The purpose is naturally self-evident - the British Empire is not willing to lose the whole of North America after the war, it wants to seize as many things as possible, and it is also ready to take advantage of the weakest time of the United States after the war to comprehensively strengthen its control over the North American territories, and it is likely to completely integrate the North American territories and the British mainland, and then it will not be a loose dualist empire, but a close-knit empire......
Such intentions have long been darkened with the politics of James. How could Bush not have guessed? Seeing that the American cowboy priest was about to be angry, Prince Albert frowned slightly, and then suddenly smiled bitterly again.
"Mr. Bush, in fact, we all know very well that the war has been lost, and now we need to think about how to clean up the mess and preserve our strength to the greatest extent in order to make a comeback next time!"
"Comeback?" James. Bush gritted his teeth and his eyes softened a little.
"Of course it's going to be a comeback!" Prince Albert still sneered, "We can't just forget it, even if you Americans lose confidence, we British people will not rest on our laurels!" You may lose a few states in this war, but what we lose is world power, and all of Australia and most of Canada and some other very valuable territory! ”
"Your Royal Highness, but this time ......" James. Bush said unwillingly, "We have not completely failed this time!" ”
"There will be no next time until complete failure!" "Mr. Bush, we have persuaded the Roman Empire to intervene to help us keep the best parts of North America—iron from Quebec, coal from the Appalachian Mountains, and industry from Pennsylvania and New York...... Add to this the British industry, the Indian market, the gold of southern Africa, and we have the capital for revenge in the future! If we can unite North America and Great Britain completely, we still have 6ooo white people, and in thirty years that number will be 100 million, and we still have a strong industrial power! These will be our guarantee to defeat Donghua and Beihua! ”
"Your Royal Highness, you seem to have forgotten the Ming Empire - a country with a population of 600 million and more than 2ooo square kilometers of land, in thirty years they may have a population of 100 million, and the industrial scale will definitely exceed that of the whole of Europe!" James. Bush coldly reminded Prince Albert.
"Da Ming?" Prince Albert looked at James in amazement. Bush, "Mr. Bush, are you ready to conquer China?" IMHO, this is unlikely to succeed...... Thirty years later, the limit of their mobilization will be 100 million 6 Army! Well, it's about the same as our population, and it's impossible to beat! ”
"If you don't defeat China, how can you defeat Donghua?"
Prince Albert laughed and looked at James earnestly. Bush, "Is there an inevitable connection between the elimination of Donghua and the defeat of China?" ”
"Donghua and Daming are both yellow countries!"
"Well, America and Rome and Germany are all Caucasian countries, have they helped America?"
Bush was stunned for a moment, feeling that the prince's words seemed to have some truth. Although the whole of Europe is shouting "Yellow Peril" or something, only Britain is the one who really supports the American people in their fight against pornography. Germany is watching, Rome is taking advantage of the fire! It's not a good thing! In contrast, the British are really righteous.
"But the king of Donghua is the son of the emperor of China!" Bush thought about it and said.
"It should be the son of the Emperor Taishang of China, and Jujuan's mother was Caesar of the Roman Empire...... However, most of these two people will not live to be 3o years later. ”
Albert said openly: "And I still have reliable information, Jujuan has a bad relationship with his brother and cousin!" Relations with the current Chinese emperor, Zhu Guoxiong, were particularly bad...... Because Mathilde I once wanted to marry himself into the Hot Spring Palace and become the empress of the Ming Empire, so that Jujuan could become the heir to the throne of the Ming Empire! So the relationship between Zhu Guoxiong and Zhu Juan has always been very poor.
It is precisely because he knows that he has no hope of getting the support of the Ming in the future that Jujuan will spare no effort to seek the throne of Mexico. But in doing so, he offended a bunch of cousins with the surname Bonaparte. I believe that as long as Zhu Jishi and Mathilde die, Donghua and Jujuan will be isolated! Then it's time for us to settle accounts with Donghua! ”
Prince Albert waved his arm vigorously to strengthen his tone, as if the sentence was true, but in fact it was completely true. But James. Bush was still persuaded by him - in fact, the war really can't be fought anymore! Summing is already inevitable, the question is just what conditions to sum with. The British-American Empire's cabinet had long met in secret to discuss the issue, and they hoped that Donghua could be bounded by the Mississippi River, ceding all the land west of the Mississippi River to Donghua and retaining the area east of the Mississippi River.
James. Bush then revealed to Prince Albert the price of the British-American Cabinet. However, no affirmative or negative answer was received. The prince only told him that the peace conference would be held in Rome, and that the Chinese had promised to send a delegation to come, and that the peace conference would be held in February 1877. At that time, I hope that the British-American Empire will be the Minister of Great Britain. Bush was able to personally attend the meeting and wage the most solemn struggle with the Chinese delegation at the peace conference. (To be continued!)
