readx;?“ The American Revolutionary Council will not sign any treaty ceding American lands! ”

"The Revolutionary Council of America considers the United Socialist States of America to have sovereignty over the entire North American continent except Mexico and the United Kingdom of Central America!"

"The whole of the United Socialist States of America is an indivisible whole!"

"The United Socialist States of America is not afraid of war and will not give up resistance, but it does not want civilians to suffer undue casualties in war, so we are prepared to withdraw civilians and troops from Chicago, Detroit, and Cleveland by water. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"The Revolutionary Council of America believes that the belligerents should unconditionally release all prisoners of war through a third party (referring to New France)."

In a manor outside Chicago, Jujuan listened to the words of a lame American Revolutionary Army general with a straight face.

The general, George Smithbottom, was the deputy commander-in-chief of the American Revolutionary Army and the representative of the American Revolutionary Council to the peace talks...... Just listen to him, it seems that he is not here for peace talks but for declaring war!

First, they will not cede land, second, they will not pay reparations, and third, they will also wishfully claim sovereignty over most of the North American continent. Jujuan almost thought that the other party was a madman. It was only after hearing that the other party agreed to withdraw troops from Chicago, Cleveland, and Detroit that Jujuan pinched his nose and continued to listen to his nonsense.

"General Patton, I wonder if you American Revolutionary Council really want peace?" Jujuan finally asked impatiently.

"Of course we want peace. But we don't want treaties. General Patton replied with a smile that this position had been decided by the members of the American Revolutionary Committee in a week-long closed-door meeting. He looked at King Donghua and squinted his eyes and sneered. "Your Majesty, I don't think you would sit here and listen to my nonsense if you had the strength to annex all of North America, would you?"

The news that Jujuan is going to resign as King of Donghua and retire to Mexico is no secret! The Revolutionary Council of America has made inquiries through special channels. At the same time, they also came to the conclusion that the abdication of King Donghua must be related to the internal power struggle of the Zhu Ming Dynasty, and the current leader of the Zhu Ming Dynasty, Zhu Guoxiong, did not want his younger brother to become the master of the whole of North America! And without the continued strong support of the Ming Dynasty, Jujuan would not have the strength to continue the war...... An armistice in North America is a foregone conclusion, whether the American Revolutionary Council will sign a treaty or not!

Without any treaty, the American Revolutionary Council would be in a politically correct position.

"If you don't want to sign a treaty. We can go and sign with the British! Jujuan said coldly.

"Well, we can't ask for it." Patton laughed and nodded, "Then the people of America will recognize the true colors of the British colonists and know whose side they should be on!" ”

"And what about the Roman Empire?" Jujuan looked at Barton, "If you don't want to sign the treaty. It would have been impossible to get the asylum and assistance of the Roman Empire. ”

"We didn't expect the French to ......," Patton waved his hand, unconcerned, "the United Socialist States of America is an independent country, and we are not anyone's vassals!" ”

"This attitude ......," Jujuan shook his head in embarrassment, "and what are we going to discuss today?" ”

"Of course, it's to save the lives of more than two million American soldiers and civilians in the three cities of Chicago, Detroit, and Cleveland." George Smithbottomon said, "Besides, these three cities are still very large, and if you want to rebuild on the ruins, it will cost at least a billion silver pesos." ”

As the Chinese army advanced, the whites around the Great Plains and the Great Lakes region of Central North America also began the Great Exodus. Although there are many people who have not been able to escape, there are many Americans who have fled into the three major cities of Chicago, Detroit and Cleveland, and the total number may be as high as two or three million!

Now let them go. In the future, their children will be the enemies of Donghua! Jujuan thought so in his heart, but he didn't bother arguing with the other party anymore - letting go of the United States was the national policy of the Ming Empire, and Juan was powerless to stop it. And he also knew that since the Ming Empire needed a powerful United States to become the enemy of Donghua and perhaps Beihua, even if the Americans refused to sign any treaties, the war would not last long.

Moreover, the absence of a treaty is not necessarily detrimental to the heavens - without a treaty there is no diplomatic success or failure. It is not a problem if you can't ask for reparations, you can't punish war criminals, or anything.

The ensuing negotiations went very well. Of course, no formal agreement was reached, only a verbal agreement - the Chinese army pledged not to enter Pennsylvania, Maryland, and southeastern Virginia, and the American Revolutionary Committee was responsible for evacuating all military and civilian personnel from Chicago, Cleveland, and Detroit within three months, and not destroying the cities.

Finally, the two sides also agreed to release some 50,000 prisoners of war each through New France. The disposition of the remaining prisoners of war will be discussed further in the future.

"General Patton, may I ask what you are going to do with Tennessee, North Carolina, and Virginia?" At the end of the negotiations, Jujuan sent George Smith Barton away, when he suddenly casually asked about the negotiating position between the Revolutionary Council of America and New France, and about the relationship between the Revolutionary Committee and Thomas Jackson, whose troops had marched into Virginia, which had been ravaged by the Mexicans, and had used it as a base.

"Of course, there's nothing to talk about, it's already under the control of you and the puppet army of New France, and the people who should have left are gone, aren't they?" George Smith Barton knew that he was raising questions on behalf of the regent of New France, namely Mathilde and Thomas Jackson, who were to receive Tennessee and North Carolina in return for Mexico's military contribution, according to an internal agreement between the Roman and Western Empires. Thomas Jackson has now become a chicken rib on the East China side, and after the American Revolutionary Committee launched the New York uprising, he has lost his reputation for righteousness.

'This American Revolutionary Committee is a stinking and hard stone!' Now I don't know what Ying Tian and the Roman side think! Jujuan looked at George Smithbottom, who limped into the carriage, and shook his head slightly.

"Victoria is a war criminal! Down with the dynasty! Long live the Republic! Long live socialism! ”

The sound of angry slogans swept through the closed doors and windows to the conference room at Buckingham Palace. Countless angry British people are gathering in the square outside Buckingham Palace, waving their fists and chanting revolutionary slogans. Snowflakes after pieces of bad news finally angered the British people, first protesting against the government's incompetence and then developing into dissatisfaction with the British crown.

However, the inside of Buckingham Palace was safe for the time being, and the British Army, which was still loyal to its duties, set up machine guns and lined up infantry in the obstacles set up outside the palace. It's just that I don't know how long their loyalty will last - the British Empire is indeed losing too ugly, not only the territory in the East cannot be saved, but even North America will be lost. Someone is now really going to be held accountable...... And it's no longer up to the prime minister's resignation to quell public grievances.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid that only your own abdication can calm the discontent of the people." Robert Churchill said to the Empress with a helpless expression. He is now Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, and Benjamin Disraeli resigned a month ago, leaving Robert Churchill at the mercy of Robert Churchill. What is in front of Prime Minister Churchill is no longer how to defeat the Ming Dynasty or the Great Chinese Empire, but how to maintain the bourgeois dictatorship of the British Isles.

Because the wave of the American Revolution may well have reached England! Now the protesters outside have pointed the finger at the British royal family and the bourgeois constitutionalism - if they were a socialist republic!

"Oh God! Do you want Britain to become a republic? Queen Victoria asked in a trembling voice.

"No, Edward will take the crown." Prince Albert, who was beside the Empress, whispered comfort.

'If I had married Princess Isa, there would have been nothing to do!' British Crown Prince Edward stood on the other side of the empress with a blank face, but he was still thinking about Zhu Yisha in his heart.

"But what about North America? How should our peace talks with the Chinese end? If the loss of the empire is too great......" Queen Victoria asked repeatedly.

"Your Majesty, the current situation is actually not completely unfavorable to the Empire." Robert Churchill forced his composure and said, "For the Roman Empire and the Ming Empire, what they need to think about now is not how to bring down the British Empire!" ”

'Yes, the British Empire has fallen no further...... 'Crown Prince Edward thought to himself, 'I'm so unlucky to have such a mess, and I hope I don't lose my head like Charles I!' ’

Robert Churchill did not know what the future King of England was thinking, and he knew that he would not have to take the king's opinion into account anymore, because after Victoria's abdication, the British monarch would certainly not have even the slightest real power.

“…… What was before them now was how to maintain the British Empire. Robert Churchill said, "Because a red Britain is certainly not what the Ming and Rome are happy to see." Revolutions are contagious, just like the '88 revolution. Now that the American revolution has reached Britain, if they don't stop it, the next one to be infected is likely to be Russia, and then the Holy Roman Empire, where crowns of honor will fall and old dynasties will be excavated. Napoleon IV and Emperor Xuanwu of the Ming Dynasty must not have wanted to see such a situation, because they were kings themselves! ”

"Well, since we can still keep the British Empire, then I'm willing to give way to Crown Prince Edward." Empress Victoria breathed a sigh of relief, "Go and announce to the people outside, the sinners who ruined the British Empire have abdicated, and ...... I ask for their forgiveness, a heartfelt request. To be continued)
