Chapter 353: Sward's Legacy!

The sun shone on Secretary of State Ward's face through the heavy smoke, his old face had nothing to do with Shuai, but at this time, because of the sunshine and the rippling seawater, there were some flashes.

But, of course, Ward himself would not know, he just felt that the sun was a little harsh, and the sea was a little salty.

"......" very lucky Sword, he was not directly killed by the cannon of the steel beast, of course thanks to God, but at this time Ward he didn't have any emotions of rejoicing, he only felt humiliation, humiliation, or humiliation!

Ward's life can be said to be legendary enough, and his life experience is written in a few memoirs, which are not problematic at all, and they will definitely sell well.

When he was young, he also studied law hard, then worked as a lawyer first, then became a real estate agent, and then entered politics, and even became the secretary of state.

If nothing else, after the outbreak of the civil war, those bastards in Europe have long wanted to intervene, and those guys are simply a pack of hungry wolves!

But I'm Ward, I'm the Secretary of State of the United States of America, and I'm going to be these hungry wolves in the Atlantic!

Really, in Sward's life, the first two years when he became secretary of state were definitely his highlight moments, on the one hand, he tried to block the intervention of European powers, on the other hand, he also negotiated with the British to isolate the south together, and in the secret fight with France, Sward did a very beautiful job, otherwise how could a guy like Juarez support it?

He is really a very capable politician. He's really good enough. But now......

"Hey~" Sward, who was like a piece of driftwood floating on the sea, sighed. He is an optimistic man, he rarely sighs, but now his heart may have fallen into the abyss.

"United States......" Ward raised his old hand as if to catch the sun, but after doing so, Ward stopped lying flat and sank to the bottom of the sea.

Mr. Swordt should be tired, right. An old man in his sixties, when he was no longer able to contribute anything to the maintenance of the United States, he did not want to continue, he wanted to rest......

Sward gave up, he knew that there was no hope left, he didn't want to work hard, even if God gave him a chance to escape under such a terrible shelling, but Sward didn't want such a chance.

But what about New York? What about the citizens of New York?

"Surrender! Are we going to fight that kind of thing? Are you all idiots? ”

"That's right! What if you don't surrender? Can anyone blow up that giant ship? ”

"No matter! Anyway, Lao Tzu is going to surrender! What ten hours. I'm going now! ”

New York Harbor is very lively and crowded. So what happened before, the Constitution was killed, and that loud voice conveyed something, and everyone quickly spread the word, and as soon as it spread, there was naturally an argument, and there were two choices in front of them, one was to surrender, and the other was to continue fighting.

Obviously, many people want to surrender, because they are ordinary people, and what can they do with the empire's formidable war machine?

But!

"Who dares to surrender?!"

"We are soldiers of the United States! We will fight to the end! ”

"That's right! For the United States! ”

Don't forget, Ward also recruited a lot of soldiers before, more than 50,000 people, and the most important thing is that most of the generals of these recruits are graduates of the West Point Military Academy in the north of New York, and cadets who were pulled over before they graduated!

West Point, a military school, is really famous, but when Li Mengyang first came to the United States, the scale of this school was really pitiful.

Really, it must be described as pitiful, a military school recruits one class a year, and there are more than 40 people in one class. Well, people advertise elite education and play small class teaching. Therefore, when there was a revolution in New York, Li Mengyang didn't care about this military school, and this military school is also very smart, knowing that he has few people, just stick to it.

But this situation was before the Civil War, and before the Civil War, this small class teaching was indeed quite successful, elite education, and the requirements were extremely strict, so to speak, most of the famous generals of the United States were born here, even if it was Robert of the South. A god-like figure like Lee.

But now, the situation is completely different, as soon as the civil war breaks out, anyone can see that there are many military schools in the south, but in the north...... It seems to be West Point.

That's not good, can't it be a good talent for the war, so what should we do?

There are naturally more people, so this quality will naturally decline, and the Civil War has been fought to this day, and the graduates of the West Point Military Academy are hundreds or thousands every year.

And you must know that the people who go to join the military academy, these individuals have a distinctive characteristic in ancient and modern times, both at home and abroad, that is, these individuals are patriots!

It can be said that only patriots have extremely high patriotic enthusiasm, and such people will have the enthusiasm to learn these military skills and endure such hardships, and most of these individuals are elites.

Even what Li Mengyang knows, the military governments of later generations who were beaten as dictators by the Hope State, in fact, if you look at their resumes, you will find that they are all patriots, have received a good elite education, military education, at least when they were young, they were very enthusiastic, very radical, and many, many, yes, what kind of coup d'Γ©tat they did, the starting point was really for the good of their motherland, really, they really thought so.

It's those bastards who have ruined the country, so you must kill them!

Junta, military dictator...... These individuals are still a bit politically minded, although they are black-hearted, but at least they know the compromise of politics, but these schools that have just come out of West Point, they are really full of enthusiasm!

"Soldiers! At this time when the country is in trouble! We are soldiers! Should fight until the last moment! ”

"That's right! Soldiers! As people of a free nation, we cannot accept the rule of that evil empire! The Emperor is an evil dictator! ”

The officers in Ward's army of 50,000 are convinced and will never surrender, and they are constantly shouting slogans to the newly recruited soldiers.

Anyone can do the slogan, but the problem is that you have to understand who you are shouting about.

"O General! We want to fight, too, but we haven't had a bite of rice in days! ”

"Yes! Respected general, just let us go to the battlefield, since we are willing to be soldiers, then it is okay, but what about military salaries and military rations? ”

Most of the people recruited this time are unemployed vagrants, and they are soldiers mainly to solve the problem of eating, but I didn't expect that Ward also has no money in his hands, and he is like them, like beggars, and now, if they want to really go to war, the key is that the opponent is still so terrifying, who has ever seen that thing? How to fight?

To tell the truth, these newly recruited soldiers, they want to embarrass their 'commanders', that is, the group of West Point cadets who have no hair on their lips, but don't forget, although these cadets are a little poor, they also have a bit of elite quality, and they have a way.

"Soldiers! We now at least have weapons! Let's use the weapons in our hands to solve the food problem! ”

"That's right! That's how it should be! We are now defending the United States! We need food and money! So who has the funds?! ”

"Wall Street! Wall Street! ”

People are not stupid, and people are born to hate the rich, so where is the richest place in New York?

Wall Street, kids know it.

So, this group of recruits and cadets formed a team, 50,000 people may not be able to all come, many people became deserters, but despite this, this team is not small, they went to Wall Street in a mighty way!

Everyone on Wall Street knows that, but what must be known is that in this era, the rich people have their own private armies, and the Lincoln administration has a headache for this matter, but the constitution says that the citizens of the United States can own weapons, so there is nothing they can do.

And you must know that after Li Mengyang engaged in the New York Revolution, the private armies of the rich are now upgraded, they are not stupid, they definitely don't want to be fired by others, plus the police have also been upgraded, so they ......

"Kill! Kill these capitulators! ”

"You bastards!"

"You traitors! You should support us in defending the United States! ”

"Fuck you! I don't care what you want to defend! Whoever gives Lao Tzu money, Lao Tzu defends! ”

"These thugs! Mob! Where are you soldiers?! ”

Bang bang bang......

The whole thing was in chaos, there were screaming people everywhere around Wall Street, gunfire everywhere, soldiers of the United States, police, private armies of the capitalists, and some guys who didn't know what they were doing, they were all in a mess!

Shook gave up the chance to escape, even if it was in heaven...... Let's bless him...... I guess he couldn't have imagined that what he left behind would change like this.

But it's already happened, so how can it end now?

"Oh God! What happened to those soldiers? Are they all crazy? Mr. Rockefeller! Could I ask you to go to the generals of the Empire? Matthew. I also know Lieutenant General McConaughey, really, we had a friendship before! ”

"This matter, I really can't handle it, because His Majesty the Emperor has no instructions, besides, General McConaughey made a promise before, ten hours, if he marches now, it may be even more troublesome!"

Obviously, Wall Street's JP Morgan, he thought of a way to lure the Imperial Army into the city, but what Rockefeller said was also very reasonable, so what should be done? (To be continued......)
