Chapter 469: The United States surrenders

"It's a robber!"

After learning that New York had fallen and been looted, Woodrow and other senior government officials in the White House presidential palace were heartbroken and indignant. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info╔╗

Secretary of State Marshall said indignantly: "I think we should accept their conditions!" If it continues to be looted like this, it will not be a price of $50 billion, but may be 500 billion or even trillions. ”

Woodrow turned to Gore and asked, "Is there still no room for manoeuvre in negotiations?" ”

Gore nodded: "At present, we have suffered a crushing defeat militarily, two-thirds of the country has fallen, New York is occupied, Washington is surrounded by enemies on all sides, and we have no bargaining chips, so the Chinese Empire uses this to threaten us, if we do not agree to their conditions, they will immediately attack Washington." ”

"The looting of New York would have cost no less than $10 billion, but if the Great Lakes industrial region had been looted, the damage would have been in the hundreds of billions of dollars," Marshall lamented. To quote a Chinese saying, we should 'lose the car and keep the handsome'. ”

Woodrow said with a bitter face: "Can you guarantee that after we agree to all their conditions, they will not ransack the Great Lakes Industrial Zone?" New York is a case in point! ”

Marshall said: "If you do not agree, the Chinese Emperor continues to attack, and the Great Lakes industrial area will definitely be destroyed and looted, and the economic losses will be immeasurable." If agreed, there is at least half a chance that there will be no looting. ”

At this moment, Harding walked in, and everyone immediately looked at each other.

Harding smiled bitterly: "I know that you scold me as a traitor in your hearts, but I am also a curve to save the country, there is a huge gap between our military strength and the Chinese Empire, this war is doomed to failure, when we know that we will lose, we should preserve our strength as much as possible and prepare for revenge in the future." ╔╗”

Everyone snorted coldly again, and Marshall said: "We think so, and the Chinese Empire also thinks the same, if you look at their conditions, it is obvious that we will not be able to turn over for twenty or thirty years." ”

Harding said: "Twenty or thirty years is better than never turning over!" If the Chinese Emperor is allowed to continue to attack, sabotage and plunder, our family will be completely ruined. Compared with the 50 billion reparations, the trillions of wealth accumulated by the United States over the past 100 years will be destroyed in the flames of war. ”

Everyone immediately stopped talking, and Harding continued: "I have just received a joint appointment from the five major consortiums of Rockefeller, Morgan, Citigroup, Cleveland, and Zehringen, and they ask us to agree to the terms of the Chinese Empire as soon as possible. ”

"What?"

Everyone was taken aback, and Woodrow asked, "How could they?" ”

Marshall smiled bitterly: "I heard that the Chinese Emperor only ransacked the small and medium-sized chaebols in the United States, and only froze the assets of these five major chaebols, presumably they are worried that this huge amount of assets will be lost, so this is why this is the case." ”

Harding nodded and said, "That's right! The five chaebols have privately reached an agreement with the Chinese Empire that the Chinese Empire will unfreeze the assets of the five chaebols and designate the five chaebols as the designated banking institutions for the United States to pay reparations to the Chinese Empire, and in return, the five chaebols will jointly put pressure on the US Congress to surrender unconditionally and accept the terms proposed by the Chinese Empire. ”

"They're selling the country!"

Woodrow slammed the table and stood up in anger, his face pale.

Originally, many people who had taken opposing opinions also stopped speaking at this time, because they were more or less connected with the five major chaebols, or were deeply affected by them. ╔╗Since the five major chaebols have jointly exerted pressure, this matter has basically been settled.

Marshall sighed: "Now that the five major chaebols have jointly come forward, it will not be long before Congress will pass the bill of unconditional surrender and accept all the conditions put forward by the Chinese Empire." ”

Woodrow, of course, understood what Marshall meant, and sat down in despair, unable to speak for a long time. He knew very well in his heart that the members of the US Congress, controlled by the five major chaebols, would not disobey the will of their masters, and by this time, the United States had been completely defeated.

June 16, 17th year of Guanghua (August 3, 1917 AD), Friday, in the conference room on the seventh floor of the Empire State Building, New York.

After a series of "unpleasant compromises," the plenipotentiary negotiators of the Chinese Empire, Minister of Finance Song Hanzhang, Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs Tan Xukai, and Mexican Foreign Minister Harrison Peele, reached an agreement with US plenipotentiary negotiators, Secretary of State Marshall, and Foreign Minister Al Gore, and signed the "New York Peace Treaty" between China, Mexico, and the United States.

According to the provisions of the New York Peace Treaty, from the date of the signing of the treaty, the armed forces, the National Guard, the militia guerrillas, and other armed forces in the United States mainland and overseas territories laid down their arms, surrendered unconditionally to the Chinese Emperor, and stopped all military operations and political attacks against the Chinese Empire and Mexico, and stopped all speech, demonstrations, and other things that were not conducive to peace between the two countries.

On August 3, 1917, the United States ceded Alaska and Hawaii to the Chinese Empire, and Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and southwestern Louisiana to Mexico when the war was formally armistically armistic. The overseas territories of the United States, the Philippines and Cuba, were transferred to the Chinese Empire free of charge.

Militarily, the Chinese Empire imposed strong restrictive measures on the United States. The treaty stipulates that California, Oregon, and Washington on the west coast of the United States are demilitarized zones, and no troops or military installations are allowed to be stationed, and all existing military installations are to be dismantled. The largest base in Norfolk on the east coast and the largest base in San Diego on the west coast were occupied by the Chinese Emperor and the Mexican Army for 15 years, and the U.S. military was not allowed to defend within a radius of 50 kilometers within the military area.

The U.S. Standing Army is limited to 100,000 personnel and is not allowed to possess offensive weapons such as tanks, heavy artillery, and heavy machine guns. The US Navy has been changed to the US Maritime Self-Defense Force, and only 20 warships with a displacement of less than 10,000 tons are allowed to have ships, and it is not allowed to have submarines. Dismantle the US Air Force, and no form of air force-like structure may be organized. It is forbidden to import or export weapons and equipment, and not to import or export military technology that is restricted by the Chinese Empire. Chemical weapons and weapons of mass destruction shall not be produced or stockpiled.

In order to limit the number of U.S. troops receiving military training, the Chinese Empire abolished the U.S. compulsory military service system, and extended the service period of non-commissioned officers to 16 years and officers to 30 years.

In terms of reparations, the Chinese Empire demanded that the United States take full responsibility for the war. Former U.S. President Woodrow was tried as the first guilty of war crimes and sentenced to 1,500 years in prison and deprived of political rights for 500 years. Seventeen former military leaders of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the US military were sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment ranging from 100 years to 500 years. Some U.S. commanders and officers were tried for war crimes, and some U.S. commanders were sentenced to death for causing more than 50 casualties to the Chinese Emperor.

According to the decision of the Sino-Mexican Coalition Compensation Commission, the United States is required to pay a total of $51.1 billion in compensation, to be paid in gold and silver, including $50 billion to the Chinese Empire, $1 billion to the Mexican people who died in the Mexican-American War, and another $100 million to civilians in other countries who died and injured in the war.

The entire $51.1 billion war reparations are guaranteed by U.S. fiscal revenues and customs duties, and the banks under the five major consortiums of Zehringen, Rockefeller, Citigroup, Cleveland, and Morgan are the payment institutions, and the U.S. government needs to pay $20 billion in reparations to the Chinese Empire and $400 million to Mexico for the first time, and the rest to be repaid in 59 years with an interest of 4%. ╔╗

Since the U.S. government was unable to come up with this huge amount of money, the Chinese Empire added a clause in the annex stipulating that the 10 most developed cities in the United States, including New York, Boston, Chicago, Detroit, Cleveland, and Philadelphia, would be entrusted to the Chinese Empire and Mexico for 15 years to assist the U.S. central government in collecting taxes.

After the signing of the treaty, the Sino-American war, which lasted for more than four months, was declared. During the entire war, the United States paid more than 3 million military and civilian casualties, and the war affected two-thirds of the United States, causing direct economic losses of more than $60 billion. Although the Chinese Empire also paid the price of more than 100,000 casualties, most of them were casualties from the vassal armies of the Chinese Empire. The Chinese Emperor obtained a huge wealth of nearly 17 billion US dollars from the great plunder of the American mainland, and the Mexican army also scraped several layers of land behind it and robbed hundreds of millions of dollars of wealth.

It is safe to say that both the Chinese Empire and Mexico, which started the war, have received great benefits, and although the military equipment aid promised by the Chinese Empire to Mexico has not been even one-tenth of it until the end of the war, Mexico has recovered a large amount of lost territory and received a large amount of reparations.

However, when Mexico was happy, it did not know that the Chinese empire had secretly created considerable contradictions between Mexico and the United States.

The Chinese Empire did not give Mexico all the territory occupied by the United States to Mexico, and California was listed as a demilitarized zone by the Chinese Empire, which laid a hidden danger for the Mexican army to send troops to recover California in the future. On the other hand, the Chinese Empire gave part of Louisiana, which was originally not a territory of Mexico, to Mexico, which led to considerable anger on the part of the United States, especially Texas, which is two-thirds of the oil-producing areas of the United States.

None of these future factors are at this time of concern to the Mexican government, which is being deluded by the enormous war interests. Among the three and a half states ceded to Mexico by the United States, Texas and Louisiana have a large number of oil fields, oil refineries, and chemical plants, especially the southwestern coastal area of Louisiana is an important industrial base of the United States in the Gulf of Mexico.

It was because of these huge interests that the Mexican government temporarily tolerated the fact that the Chinese Empire did not return California to Mexico.

The Chinese Emperor and the Mexican Army disarmed 1.75 million U.S. Army troops in accordance with the treaty, taking control of the entire United States. In order to prepare for war against China, the US military has accumulated tens of billions of dollars in military and strategic materials, and when the Chinese emperor seized it, more than $3 billion in military supplies were hoarded in underground warehouses in the Washington theater of operations.

With the unconditional surrender of the United States, the US navy, land, and air forces were disbanded, and about 13 million rifles, 60,000 light and heavy machine guns, 40,000 light and heavy artillery, more than 1,400 tanks, more than 2,000 fighters and bombers, more than 3 million tons of ammunition, and more than 60,000 military vehicles all became trophies of the Chinese emperor.

The Mexican government could not get the advanced weapons and equipment of the Chinese emperor, but the weapons and equipment of the US army were also more advanced than those of the Mexican army, so the Mexican government hoped that the Chinese empire could send some of the US military equipment to the Mexican army.

In this regard, the Chinese Empire agreed. Because the Chinese Empire was not interested in the weapons and equipment of the US military, and at the same time the weapons and equipment promised to Mexico had not been fulfilled, the Chinese Empire needed Mexico, an ally, to contain the United States in the Americas, so half of the weapons and equipment were transferred to the Mexican army, and the other half of the weapons and equipment of the Chinese Emperor were transferred to the four vassal countries of Lanfang, Siam, Korea and Western Japan, strengthening their military power.

After receiving such a large number of weapons and equipment, the Mexican army was immediately expanded by 600,000 troops, and it became the most powerful country on the American land. The generosity of the Chinese Empire also won the favor of the Mexican government and people, and both sides had the highest strategic purpose of containing the rise of the United States and preventing American retaliation, which made Mexico a staunch ally of the Chinese Empire.

When Americans learned of the treaty, anger and humiliation quickly spread across the country. The Americans felt very aggrieved by the land reparations, especially the disbandment of the Air Force and the transformation of the Army and Navy into the Self-Defense Forces, which made the US military feel extremely humiliated.

After the signing of the New York Peace Treaty, the Woodrow government in the United States also came to an end, Woodrow became a war criminal and was imprisoned, and a new government was formed by Republican leader Harding.

However, the new Harding government, faced with huge war reparations and unprecedented financial pressure, borrowed foreign debt from the Chinese Empire on the one hand, and imposed heavy taxes on the domestic government on the other hand, and exploited the people. Since the Chinese Emperor set foot on American soil, he has plundered on a large scale, and the small and medium-sized chaebols in the United States have been hit hard, and the five major chaebols have yielded to the Chinese Empire to preserve their strength, but they have stepped up the exploitation of the Americans, resulting in serious polarization in the United States and social turmoil after the war.

Faced with tens of thousands of Americans protesting and marching every day, the Harding government was in a dilemma, and soon the newly appointed Secretary of State Henry Kissinger abolished the dollar gold standard, adopted the paper money situation, and issued paper money on a large scale, causing the dollar to depreciate rapidly, causing financial turmoil in the United States and exacerbating social unrest.

Admiral Pace C. March rejected the Harding government's traitorous policy of seeking glory and led the U.S. Ninth Army to rebel in Maine, declaring Maine's independence, which was matched by the U.S. state of Maryland and the state of Mexico.

The newly appointed commander of the U.S. Self-Defense Forces, Admiral John J. Pershing, immediately led his troops to suppress it, and the Chinese Emperor also sent warships and planes to support the Pershing government forces in encircling and suppressing the American rebels at the request of the Harding government.

Due to the powerful firepower of the Chinese Imperial Navy and Air Force, the US troops under Ma Qi's command could not resist, and the rebel US troops had no military pay.

Seeing that there was no hope of independence, March immediately called on the field to go to the field, but was still arrested by the US military and sentenced to death. Originally, the position of Admiral March did not require the death penalty, but in order to deter the people of other states, the Harding government had no choice but to kill chickens and show monkeys and hang March for treason.

The March uprising was suppressed in less than a week, so that the other American states did not dare to act rashly, and General Pershing also said that the American army was no longer able to fight, and could not defeat the Chinese emperor at all. He called on the American people to work together to tide over the difficulties, rebuild the United States, and strive to surpass the Chinese Empire.

On August 25, the Harding government of the United States transferred 7,350 tons of gold and 160,000 tons of silver from the U.S. treasury, as well as a large amount of industrial equipment dismantled from the Great Lakes industrial base for $20 billion, to the Chinese Empire, and assured the Chinese Imperial Government that the treaty was valid.

In order to divert social contradictions, the Harding government, after obtaining the tacit approval of the five major plutocrats, took advantage of the weakening of the Rothschilds in Europe in the world war to openly set off an anti-Semitic campaign in the United States, saying that the Jews had earned all the wealth of the United States and inciting American nationalist sentiments. As a result, fierce anti-Semitic actions broke out in the United States, and the bankrupt and unemployed Americans in the war had no choice but to attack the Jews in defiance of their conscience for their own personal gain, and they wantonly looted and smashed Jewish shops, persecuted Jews, and plundered Jewish property.

The five major American conglomerates also wanted to get rid of the control of the Rothschilds, so they took this opportunity to incite national hatred behind the scenes and take the opportunity to annex the assets of the Rothschilds in the United States. The Rothschilds never imagined that they would transfer part of their family's property to the United States in order to escape the war in Europe, and as a result, more than a billion dollars of assets were looted in the United States, causing the Rothschilds to decline suddenly.

After the news of the surrender of the United States and the signing of the New York Peace Treaty reached the Chinese Empire, the whole country of the Chinese Empire celebrated, and 450 million comrades rushed to the streets to celebrate.

After Wang Chenhao, the emperor of the Chinese Empire, received the news, a hanging heart finally fell. With the defeat of the United States, the United States will not be able to compete with the Chinese Empire for twenty years, and the Chinese Empire will become the only superpower in the world.

Wang Chenhao was very happy, and immediately ordered the whole country to celebrate for three days and amnesty the world. All the soldiers who participated in the war were rewarded twice as much as they were rewarded for their original meritorious service, and the pensions of the fallen soldiers were also doubled.

On the other hand, in distant Europe, the Madrid Treaty was signed, and the two major military blocs abandoned the war, officially ending the world war.

Europeans who came out of the clouds of world war also regretted that the United States had been defeated by the Chinese Empire, and as Westerners, they sympathized with the Americans. European politicians and military strategists could not help but look up to the sky and sigh, "The rise of the Chinese Empire can no longer be stopped, and the world will once again return to the situation where the East is above the West."
