"Your Excellency the Foreign Secretary, the Government of the United States of America is outraged by the territorial transfer agreement between the Chinese Empire and Mexico, and on behalf of the Government of the United States, I solemnly protest to the Chinese Empire. This act of the Chinese Empire seriously harmed the interests of the United States, and the US Government hoped that the Chinese Empire would abandon this action. Otherwise, this will make the relationship between our two countries extremely deteriorate, and even a situation that is difficult to manage! U.S. Minister to China Alexander A. Everid roared angrily at the Imperial Foreign Minister Lin Zihao.

Lin Zihao was expressionless and looked at Alexander. Minister Averid's roar, he had long expected the reaction of the Americans. However, this is clearly a deal between the two sovereign states of the Chinese Empire and Mexico, so what does it matter to the Americans? The Americans reacted so much that they were completely worried that their attempts would be sabotage, and they couldn't wait to declare war on Mexico, just to grab Mexican territory?

"Is it all over? Your Excellency, Minister? "Wait until Alexander. Minister Avered's protest was over, and Lin Zihao spoke.

"Uh, that's it." Alexander. Minister Everid said breathlessly. After receiving the relevant news, he hurriedly ordered someone to send a telegram to China, and then immediately rushed to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Chinese Empire, and then rushed into the office of Foreign Minister Lin Zihao to protest. This is enough for him in his fifties, which can be enough to choke him.

"Your Excellency, First of all! As a minister to China, you rushed into my office without even saying hello. That's rude, isn't it? Are you Americans really thieves and robbers as the Europeans say? Lin Zihao said coldly.

Alexander. Minister Everett's face suddenly became very ugly, but. He knew that he was too rude this time, so he didn't dare to refute Lin Zihao's questioning. In addition, the United States today is not a superpower in later generations, but just an emerging country. In front of such a world power as the Chinese Empire, the United States is nothing. Therefore, Alexander. Minister Everett felt the pressure.

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency the Foreign Secretary. I was too impulsive just now. However, the agreement reached between the Chinese Empire and the Mexicans seriously undermined the national interests of the United States. "Alexander. Minister Everett said through gritted teeth.

"Humph! This was between the Chinese Empire and Mexico. Is it related to the United States? Mexico voluntarily sold their territory to the Chinese Empire, which was none of America's business at all. What are the interests of the United States, and what do they have to do with the empire? Could it be that the empire wants to give up its own interests for the sake of the United States? Lin Zihao asked rhetorically. The interests of the United States matter. So. Aren't the interests of the Chinese empire important? When there is a conflict of interest between the two parties, it is often resolved only through peaceful means such as negotiation and consultation. However, when the problem cannot be solved by peaceful means, the only way to solve the problem is usually to use the means of war, and whoever has the biggest fist will hold the truth in his hands. It's as if the British had always believed that the truth was only within the range of a cannon. If the Americans want to defend their interests, they must have the corresponding strength.

Alexander. Minister Everett was blushing, even though the Americans had claimed the territory of northern Mexico as their own. But. After all, this was the result of their invasion of Mexico, which is not on the table. Originally, the Americans wanted to force the Mexicans to submit by means of war. And then let them cede the territories of the north to the United States. However, they never imagined that the Chinese Empire would actually step in and buy those lands at a low price, which is completely like grabbing meat in the bowl of the United States to eat!

"Your Excellency the Foreign Secretary. Texas, Wyoming, and Colorado are all territories of the United States of America. The Mexicans did not have the right to sell these territories to the Chinese Empire. Therefore, this agreement does not count. "Alexander. Minister Everett said.

Before 1821, the southwestern part of the present-day United States, from Texas on the Gulf Coast to California on the Pacific Coast, was a Spanish colony. In 1821, Mexico gained independence from Spanish colonial rule, and these areas became Mexican territory. After that, Americans began to move to Texas. In 1835, immigrants from the United States who moved to Texas, Mexico, launched an armed rebellion, expelled the Mexican army in March of the following year, and established the Republic of Texas, also known as the "Lone Star Country". On May 14, 1836, the Mexican army failed to suppress the Texas rebellion and was forced to sign a treaty recognizing Texas independence. After independence, Texas requested to be incorporated into the United States and became a state of the United States. However, at that time, the contradictions between the North and the South of the United States were acute, and the North was worried that if Texas became a state of the United States, it would strengthen the power of the South in Congress, so it opposed the merger of Texas.

By 1844, the North and the South had made a compromise and decided to merge Texas. In April 1844, the United States signed a treaty of union with Texas. On March 1, 1845, the United States ratified the Treaty of Annexation, and on June 23, a special session of the Texas Congress ratified the Treaty of Annexation. On December 29 of the same year, the United States officially incorporated Texas into the United States, making it the 28th state of the United States.

Mexico was so angry at the merger of the United States with Texas that it severed relations with the United States. In 1846, U.S. President Polk sent troops into a disputed area of the border between the two countries. The Mexican side lodged a strong protest. On April 24, Mexican troops and U.S. forces clashed in skirmishes, killing three Americans. This incident just gave the United States an excuse. On May 13, the United States declared war on Mexico, and the Mexican-American War began.

Of course, Mexico was defeated in this war, and in four months, they lost their capital. The Americans thought that victory was imminent, but they did not expect that in the end, they were intervened by the Chinese Empire. snatched all the meat that was about to enter his mouth.

"Your Excellency, the Government of Mexico has never recognized the annexation of Texas by the United States. As for Wyoming and Colorado, only part of it belongs to the United States, and we buy the part that belongs to Mexico. I advise you, Your Excellency, that the Empire has already paid Mexico the amounts transferred to the territories, and that those territories now belong to the Empire. Please withdraw the American* troops in those territories at once, otherwise it will be considered an invasion of the Reich and will become an enemy of the Reich. Lin Zihao warned.

"Your Excellency Foreign Minister, the Chinese Empire is blatantly plundering the interests of the United States, and we will never give in, even if it leads to war." Alexander. Minister Everett exclaimed.

"Haha? War, is the United States trying to declare war on us? If so, please submit a declaration of war! Lin Zihao said disdainfully. Do the Americans have the guts to do this? He thinks so.

Alexander. Minister Everett was speechless, and after a few harsh words, he left in a wolf. The Chinese Empire is not a weak country like Mexico, and it will back down after a few words of intimidation from him.

"Humph! It's just a group of robbers, and it's okay to bully the weak at ordinary times, but now they want to bully the head of the empire, which is simply not knowing whether they are alive or dead. Lin Zihao looked at Alexander. Everett's back as he left said coldly. The territory of the Americans has expanded several times compared to when it was first founded. These territories, with the exception of Louisiana, which was purchased from the French, were acquired by cunning means. In addition, in the process of their westward expansion, they killed many Indians, which is completely banditry!

The White House, Washington, USA, which had been burned down by the British during the war, has been rebuilt. It is still the center of American domination. This nascent country, despite being independent for only a few decades, has developed into a new power. Moreover, the land area is still in the process of further expansion, and it is about to dominate the North American continent. The Mexican-American War was an expansion operation orchestrated by the United States. It took only four months from the start of the war to the capture of Mexico City, the capital of Mexico. Although the Mexicans were still resisting, it was foreseeable that the final victory of the United States in the war was just around the corner.

However, at this very time, the Chinese Empire intervened. Although China has risen faster than the United States, its military strength is far stronger than that of the United States. But there is a Pacific Ocean between China and the United States! At one point, Americans thought that the Chinese Empire was too far away from the United States. Although the country on the other side of the ocean is very militarily powerful, it does not pose any threat to the United States. After all, it is not so easy to cross the Pacific Ocean for tens of thousands of kilometers. Who knew that the Chinese Empire would dare to buy from the Mexicans at this time those lands that were about to become American territory? This is simply a provocation against the United States!

The current President of the United States, James Brown. Knox. Polk was the 15th president of the United States, and he originally thought that under his leadership, the United States would usher in a new round of expansion. But I didn't expect that now I was in trouble. And it's still not a small trouble. The Chinese Empire and Mexico had already signed a territorial transfer agreement, which means that, de jure speaking, those territories were already territories belonging to the Chinese Empire. If the United States insists on occupying those territories, it will be an invasion of the Chinese Empire. Such a case would inevitably lead to a fierce reaction from the Chinese Empire. The Chinese Empire was not a weak Mexico, and even the mighty British Empire suffered defeat at the hands of the Chinese Empire. If the United States wants to defeat the Chinese Empire, I am afraid it will not be so easy. (To be continued......)
