Inviting Emperor Yang to mediate or something, it's a pure joke, everyone knows that he is the chief director behind this war, the Americans are actually tantamount to formally begging for mercy, of course, begging for mercy is not bottomless, the two sides are so face-to-face bargaining, it is much better than a middleman with the same intentions, and for historical reasons, the Americans are also very wary of the British.

"Of course, there is no problem with mediation, but now that the Mexicans have the upper hand, if you want President Santos to cease the war, your country must at least show enough sincerity." Emperor Yang said slowly.

"The U.S. government is willing to hold formal negotiations on the revision of the Guadalupe-Hidalgo Treaty until we re-agree on the content of this treaty." Conger hurriedly said that this means that the land that Mexico ceded to the United States should be redistributed, and the United States is willing to sit down and negotiate a concrete result.

His attitude made Emperor Yang very satisfied.

"I will convey the sincerity of your country to President Santos." This thing said seriously.

"Your Majesty, as a thank you for mediating the Mexican-American War, the U.S. Government is willing to reopen discussions with the Chinese Government on the issue of the San Francisco Autonomous Region." Conger continued, what this means is whether this land belongs to China or the United States in the future, we can sit down and discuss calmly, you don't engage in those conspiracies anymore, whether to lease or simply let us cede this can be discussed, anyway, that place is now the same as China, even if you always want us to cede it, it is not impossible to negotiate.

Yang Feng looked at him with a smile, and saw that Conger was about to lose his hair, so he pulled his voice and said like a public servant who spoke: "As far as I know, the people of California are seeking independence, right?" The Autonomous Region of San Francisco, which is part of California, is a little early in discussing this issue. ”

One Chinese community is not enough, and you have to have the whole of California to satisfy your appetite.

Conger naturally understood what he meant, and in fact, Brian's order to him had already stated that if the San Francisco Autonomous Region could not satisfy the emperor's desires. Then California is not impossible to discuss, but the price code is certainly different.

For the United States, California at this time already has the smell of chicken ribs, originally before the last war, the total population of that land was less than a million, and nearly half of them were Chinese, Mexican, Japanese,, and even Indian. Pure white Americans are at most 500,000, after the death of a war, after the war because of fear and migration, the most 300,000 remained, after the war a large number of Chinese and Japanese immigrants poured in, long ago made the white people regress into a minority, in addition to the main resource of the plantation industry is the oil in the Los Angeles area, although it is worth a lot of money, but it is certainly not worth risking the loss of the country for this benefit.

Of course, even if it is sold. You have to sell it for a good price.

"Your Majesty, the problem of California, the U.S. government is considering how to solve it, but there are a large number of Chinese in California. In view of this, we also hope that the Chinese government will play a more active role in this. Conger said cautiously.

His attitude made Emperor Yang very satisfied, this is the attitude that a begging for mercy should have.

"That's how it should be, and that's the embodiment of America's spirit of freedom. Of course, it is inconvenient for me to meddle in these specific matters, and the people from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will talk to you. Emperor Yang said with a smile.

In this way, Zhang Quan took over the rest.

At this time, the Republican Army of California, which had already advanced to the outskirts of Los Angeles, also inexplicably stopped. Although they still maintain military pressure on Los Angeles, but do not launch a direct attack, the Mexicans on the southern line are still building the railroad, according to their speed, at most another month, it will be able to connect with the South Pacific Railroad across the United States, once this road is completed, Santos has the ability to really fight with the United States in the west.

However, after receiving Emperor Yang's peace wishes on behalf of the Americans, His Excellency the Mexican President also showed great sincerity, he ordered the release of the first batch of 5,000 American prisoners of war, and at the same time repatriated some of the arrested American businessmen, of course, their confiscated property will not be returned, although this also made the Americans more or less relieved, you must know that under normal circumstances, these profiteers who have squeezed the blood and sweat of countless Mexican people are usually hung on the gallows.

Immediately after that, at the invitation of the Chinese government, the negotiators from the United States and Mexico arrived in Puerto Rico and officially started negotiations in San Juan, of course, such negotiations are usually very laborious, especially since the United States insists on returning only Arizona, while the Mexicans demand the return of Nevada, New Mexico and Arizona, and also demand that the United States pay $100 million in reparations, which the United States cannot agree to in any case, in fact, the American capitalists are not prepared to pay Mexico a penny for the war reparations, The amount of property they have lost in Mexico alone has not been able to clear out a specific amount, which is so great that it can only be described as innumerable, and countless people have been forced to jump off buildings after decades of business loss.

What's more, this war is still not a victory for Mexico, the two sides are only a draw at most, why give you money, of course, it is more psychologically unacceptable, and the reparations to China, Germany, Russia, and Spain are just like that, who calls people the great powers! But Mexico is nothing, it is just a dog raised by the Chinese, and the United States has not yet fallen to the point of paying compensation to a dog.

The negotiation between them is not something that Emperor Yang needs to care about, anyway, Arizona and New Mexico must be cut off from the United States, and if the United States does not agree, let Santos continue to fight, and after the railway is connected, let alone fight New Mexico, it is okay to continue to fight, and the Mexicans can't do it, and the Chinese Army rolls up its sleeves. Of course, things are not expected to develop to this point, and New Mexico has nothing of value, nothing more than a few small towns based on gold and silver mines, and none of them are big mines, and there are still a large number of Indians, and they have not even become a formal state, just a quasi-state, such a place will not let the Americans be entangled for too long.

What Emperor Yang really cared about was the negotiations between China and the United States over California.

"What the Americans want is to sell California to us for 500 million dollars, but we must ensure that the legal property of the Americans there is not violated." Zhang Quan said.

500 million Chinese dollars is basically 100 million US dollars, which is not expensive in terms of the value of California, as for respecting the property of Americans, it goes without saying that it is also necessary to agree, of course, how to use some other means in the future, that is another matter, such as the Rockefeller oil fields polluting the environment, inciting oil workers to strike, etc., in short, there are ways to force them away at that time.

Therefore, Emperor Yang felt that this price was completely acceptable, and besides, 500 million Chinese dollars was just their offer, how could there be no bargaining for this thing, according to the usual practice, it was usually cut at the waist, and 50 million US dollars was not called money for Emperor Yang now, not to mention that the current war reparations paid by the United States to China have not yet been paid, and it is a big deal to deduct them from their indemnities.

"However, the Americans still have one condition, they want to sign a friendship treaty with us to establish friendly relations between the two countries in writing, and of course there are some specific provisions, mainly hoping that neither the Chinese government nor you will deal with them again in the future." Zhang Quan said with a smile.

This request directly amused Yang Feng, he really didn't expect President Bryan to be so naïve and actually believe in this kind of guarantee, but it can be seen that Americans have indeed been bullied and scared over the years, even if it is a psychological comfort, they are not willing to let go like a life-saving straw.

"Yes, this is totally possible, and you tell Sù Conger that both I and the Chinese government are very willing to reaffirm our friendship with the American people in writing." Yang Feng said with a smile.

In fact, in this deal, the latter is what Brian and the U.S. government are really looking forward to, to put it bluntly, they want to sell California to China, or like Emperor Yang begging for mercy, cut his own flesh to feed this Tyrannosaurus rex, hoping that he can spare his poor little sheep, even if it is only temporary, the United States really can't afford to toss.

Emperor Yang doesn't mind satisfying their little wish, mainly because he is not ready to continue to plague the United States in the near future, this country no longer poses any threat in the foreseeable future, although the coast of the Great Lakes as the core of their industry is still not damaged in any way, but losing California is equivalent to completely closing their door to the Pacific Ocean, as long as you pay close attention to the Paris Peace Treaty in the future, don't let them build large warships for ten years, this country is completely harmless to China, As for the question of their support for Britain after the war, China did not need to worry about this, it was a problem for the Germans.

What's more, Yang Feng is not optimistic about Brian's future, according to his current method of suppressing capitalists, those predators will not endure it for too long, now it is just because there is an external threat pressing, and in the last war, the American capitalists lost too much, and the entire wealth pattern has been reshuffled. Even if he has popular support, it is useless, a bullet will be solved, and there is more than one president in the history of the United States who has been solved in this way, and Yang Feng is looking forward to an America that uses bullets instead of votes to solve political problems.
