As soon as this ultimatum was made public, combined with the previous transfer of the Chinese Navy, those who were smarter already understood that this was a long-planned plan by the Caribbean Alliance, and the purpose was not to make Alabama independent, but to use force to close the door to the United States to make war money, or at least to close the door to the American industry to make war money.

After understanding this, the capitalists in the United States were so angry that they almost vomited blood, Nima, don't bring such shamelessness, only you are allowed to get rich, not us! Why! Is your fleet strong? Is there any justice and justice in this world?

Of course, there is no justice and justice in this world, this world is the fist has the final say, the four-nation fleet that has gathered in the Caribbean Sea has passed twenty-four hours, and the United States has not withdrawn its troops from Alabama, immediately left their respective stations, and went north in a mighty way, brutally intercepting all the merchant ships sailing out of the United States and then inspecting them, if they are loaded with cotton, grain and other agricultural products, then they will be released immediately after inspection, if they are loaded with steel and crude oil, Industrial products such as machinery and even cloth go directly back and forth.

No matter which country's merchant ships, as long as they transport industrial products from the United States, they will all be handled accordingly, those who dare not go back will send soldiers on board the ship to escort them back, and those who dare to resist will be directly sunk, anyway, at this time, no matter which of the European countries that are at war, they have no courage to provoke the Caribbean Alliance, which really provokes Yang Feng to turn around and join their enemy side, then it is not a problem of bad luck for the United States.

"Your Majesty, the Caribbean Alliance's conduct is a serious obstacle to the spirit of trade freedom that you have been advocating." Sa Daoyi said to Yang Feng righteously, he deliberately took the plane of China Post to Kunming to meet Emperor Yang, although he knew that it was impossible to do anything for this, but Britain at least had to express his anger, you must know that at present, most of the materials exported by the United States to Europe are for the purpose of supplying Britain for the war, and now that the American coast is blocked, Britain's supply of materials will immediately become extremely tight.

"Your Excellency, you should go to the Cabinet and not to me on this matter." Yang Feng said unceremoniously.

"陛xià. I'm just saying this as a friend. Sa Daoyi said hurriedly.

"Since it's a private conversation from a friend, it doesn't matter," Yang Feng waved his hand generously and said, "First of all, the U.S. government must be punished for their barbaric atrocities, until they reflect and correct their mistakes, there is no doubt about that."

But neither I nor the Chinese government want to see a war in the Americas ignited, and the American people shed blood for the mistakes of their own government, so war is not advisable, so the blockade of the coastal ports of the United States has become the only way for the US government to reflect on and correct its own mistakes, and such a blockade must be maintained until the US government learns to truly respect the wishes of its own people.

Of course, this will indeed have some impact on trade between the United States and the United Kingdom. However, compared with the justice and justice of the world, this small impact should be understandable by your government, and besides, the things you buy from the United States are not without substitutes in the international market, steel and the like can be exported from China, Sweden and even Spain, not to mention crude oil, the Confederacy, Mexico, the Ottoman Empire. No matter how much you want, they can supply, as for other machinery, textiles, chemical raw materials China can provide. Without the United States, you still have a place to source. ”

Sa Daoyi thought to himself, of course I know that these things can be purchased from other places, especially from China, and now you wish Britain bought everything from China! But the problem is the money! Britain has saved a little gold for hundreds of years and sent it to you, who doesn't know that you blockade the United States for this.

But he couldn't help it. In the current situation, no matter how Yang Feng plays, Britain can only endure it, otherwise once he falls to Germany. Then it will not be a question of spending a few more dollars for Britain, it will be a real disaster. Fortunately, his trip was not completely unsuccessful, and as compensation to the British government, Yang Feng agreed to sell arms to the British government at his arsenal in Western Australia.

At this time, the Australian Federation has been established, but it is still a member of the British Commonwealth, and has no diplomatic rights, but Western Australia has not joined as in the original history, and it is still a colony managed by the British Government's Colonial Affairs Department, of course, this is only in name, because the number of Chinese there is almost twice that of whites, and the Yang consortium controls almost all factories and mines, and even more than half of the members of the Western Australian Parliament are Chinese, and Emperor Yang is the actual owner there.

Previously, he had been using pacifism as an excuse to prohibit the Bofors branch in Perth from selling arms to the British government, of course, others bought and resold it from there, this is none of his business, and now it is nothing more than omitting intermediate links, although this compensation is not a relief in the snow, but at least it also shows that he still cares more about the attitude of the British government, and the arsenal in Western Australia is not too much, and the operation of supplying 100,000 troops is still very easy, and it is also a big benefit to the UK, So Sa Daoyi has nothing to say.

In this way, with the acquiescence of Britain, the Caribbean Alliance's blockade of American ports became even more unscrupulous, and directly blocked the fleet outside New York Bay to show off its might, especially the two battle cruisers of the Chinese Navy, and even ran off the coast of Canada to intercept all oil tankers sailing out of Canada, the reason is very simple, Canada has no oil fields, since it exports crude oil, it must be re-exported from the United States, and the interception is completely legal.

Moreover, the Caribbean Alliance also publicly warned Canada that if it continues to help the United States export industrial products, then it will not rule out stricter inspections of Canadian merchant ships, although it will not be directly repatriated like American merchant ships, but it should be very possible to inspect for a few months, otherwise it will certainly not be possible to determine whether there are American goods in it, considering that Canada is now going all out to supply Britain for the war, let alone inspecting for a few months, even Britain can't stand the inspection for a few weeks.

After finding the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Sa Daoyi and Zhang Quan finally decided that the Caribbean Alliance would send supervisors in Canadian ports to supervise the re-export of American goods by Canadian merchants, although it is impossible to really solve this problem, but there is more or less a control on the line, in fact, as long as the American crude oil cannot be sold, Yang Feng will be satisfied, as for other industrial products, As long as it makes trouble, now that Europe is at war, it must be bought wherever it is fast, and if a shipment is delayed for a month, then the British will definitely prefer to use China.

The blow to the American capitalists was simply cut in half, and the ambitious guys who were waiting for the war were completely dumbfounded, and the grieving and indignant American capitalists desperately encouraged the parliament to fight for their own markets even if they fought a war, but at this time, President Brian, who was already ready for war, retreated, because the Caribbean Alliance did not prohibit the export of American agricultural products, and even because of the needs of the war, the export of American agricultural products was growing substantially, and American farmers were his main supporters, And agriculture is now the backbone of the U.S. economy.

If this is used as an excuse to start a war, then even the export of agricultural products will definitely be banned, and if it really starts fighting, it will definitely be a difficult war with the strength of both sides, and it may even be protracted, and it is not impossible for the United States to lose again, in which case not only will it lose the opportunity to make money.

And the industrial capitalists of the United States are also his main enemies in the country, these guys have been trying to get him out of power in recent years, and there was even an assassination of him before, if he can take this opportunity to further weaken them, it is not a bad thing for him, in addition, he can also see that Yang Feng does not mind the Americans making money, what he minds is that the United States develops industry to make money, but it is vigorously supporting American agriculture, and even China still imports a large amount of grain from the United States, And this is also his governing ideal.

In the end, it was not easy for the United States to maintain the present peace, and neither he nor the farmers who had been living a prosperous life in those days did not want to risk losing this for the sake of the industrial capitalists.

Based on this mentality, the US Government's response to the blockade can be described as weak, with no further moves at all except for constant protests to the five countries, and even the US Navy has been strictly ordered not to go out to create a pretext for war on the other side, while the Army strictly guards the border and is equally forbidden to provoke the other side.

The Americans did not make further moves, nor did the Caribbean Alliance, but simply maintained the blockade of industrial products to the United States, and the Spanish and Confederate armies strengthened their defenses on the border, as for the promised troops, no one mentioned it at this time, but the government-in-exile of the Republic of Alabama was still active, and these guys who received salaries from the Yang consortium used the means that could be used to desperately exaggerate the brutality of the US government. Encourage the people of Alabama to continue to fight courageously against the aggressor.

However, it is obvious that at this time, the people of Alabama also came to their senses and understood that they had become victims of being betrayed by the interests of the great powers, although there were still a few people who were really fooled into occasionally attacking the US military, but the vast majority of them were honest, and besides, the US government had stationed more than 100,000 troops in this state, and it was pure fantasy that the hundreds of thousands of Alabamans still wanted to fight for independence.
