The carriage of the legation drove out of the embassy gate. U.S. Minister to China Alexander A. Everett, through the window of the carriage, glanced back at the two-story embassy, his eyes filled with inexplicable sadness. The Chinese Empire officially declared war on the United States, and he was also required to leave China within a week. The country ordered him to go to Hong Kong first, and then from Hong Kong to India, where he waited. In order to continue to serve as a special envoy of the US government, he can continue to engage in dialogue with the Chinese Empire.

Alexander. Minister Everett knew that this was because of a lack of self-confidence at home. The Chinese* army has already set off for the Hawaiian Islands. It is expected that within a month to two, the war will start. Will the U.S. Army be able to withstand the attack of the Chinese* army? If you can't win, you have to think of other ways. Perhaps, bowing your head and admitting defeat will be the only way when the time comes.

On July 27, 1847, the Chinese Empire declared war on the United States, causing a sensation around the world. Although, as it is clear to all, war between the Chinese Empire and the United States is inevitable. Although it has been a month since the three-month ultimatum given by the Chinese Empire, the Chinese Empire, as one of the major powers in the world, will never allow the United States to invade their territory. Legally speaking, the U.S. invasion of the territory purchased by the Chinese Empire from the Mexican government is a naked invasion.

The common people of all walks of life in China declared war on the United States against the Empire. have expressed their support. In particular, the vast number of peasants, in the government's propaganda, have as much as 2.3 million square kilometers of land. How much can be provided for domestic immigration? Although the empire has continued to emigrate overseas. However, with the growth of more and more population, the land in the country is still not enough. If a piece of land of more than 2 million square kilometers could be incorporated into the empire's territory, then the vast number of peasants would surely benefit. The new merchants were also supportive of the war. War. This means that a large amount of material consumption and war-related industries will develop rapidly during the war. Other than that. After defeating the United States, with the strength of the empire, it will inevitably make the United States open its market to the empire. This is also very beneficial for businessmen.

In various cities of the Chinese Empire. Almost all of the people organized the march. Support the Empire's declaration of war on the United States. People used guò to buy war bonds issued by the Imperial Treasury or directly raise donations for the war to support the Empire's war effort. It can be said that the common people have gained real benefits from the foreign wars of Tongguò again and again, which makes them participate in the war from the very beginning passively to the current active participation in the war!

Russia, the other enemy of the Chinese Empire now, after the Empire declared war on the United States. then breathed a sigh of relief. Although, the Chinese Empire sent troops to Siberia. All the way to the west. However, at this time, China was going to cross the Pacific Ocean to attack the United States, which made it impossible for the Chinese Empire to send more troops to Russia. Although Russia has little hope of defeating the Chinese Empire. However, this can make them much less stressed. At the same time, it can also make the subsequent armistice negotiations more smoothly.

The British wanted the Chinese Empire to be the enemy of the whole world, so that they could hide behind the scenes and constantly weaken the strength of the Chinese Empire. From the fact that the British gave loans to the United States and then imported weapons and equipment, we can see their sinister intentions.

On the same day that the Chinese Empire declared war on the United States, the Kingdom of Spain followed suit and officially declared war on the United States under the pretext that the United States had forcibly purchased the Florida region belonging to the Kingdom of Spain. Queen Isabella II of Spain announced that the Kingdom of Spain would cooperate with the Chinese Empire and would send at least 200,000 troops to attack the United States until the United States was defeated.

The next day, the President of the Second French Republic, Charles Murphy. Bonaparte, gave a speech in the French Parliament. The content of the speech was the importance of the North American colonies to France. When Napoleon the Great sold Louisiana to the United States for 80 million francs, it was undoubtedly a loss-making deal, and as much as 800,000 square kilometers of land was far from worth it. Shire. President Bonaparte demanded that this mistake be corrected, but the Americans refused to agree, and they were determined to harm the interests of France. For this reason, France had to solve it only by means of war. Shire. President Bonaparte asked Congress to authorize him to declare war on the United States.

In the ensuing vote, the French parliament, by an absolute majority, passed the bill authorizing war. Shire. President Bonaparte also formally signed a decree declaring France's entry into the war against the United States.

For a time, the Chinese Empire, the Kingdom of Spain, and the Second French Republic declared war on the United States one after another. These three countries, in addition to the Kingdom of Spain, the Chinese Empire and France are all military powers, and even the Kingdom of Spain has recovered a lot of national strength over the years. The simultaneous declaration of war by three countries on the United States has undoubtedly put the United States in an extremely dangerous situation. Although the United States is not weak, it is almost impossible to confront three powers at the same time.

When the Imperial Chinese Envoy to the United States presented the declaration of war to the U.S. Secretary of State, James Murphy. When Buchanan was in place, it meant that the war had broken out. Secretary of State James Murphy. Buchanan hurried to the White House to greet President James Murphy. Knox. Polk pleaded, and then, James. Knox. President Buchanan, convened an emergency meeting.

In the White House, in President Polk's office, the atmosphere was a little dreary, and the air seemed to freeze. U.S. diplomatic efforts have failed, and the Chinese Empire has officially declared war on the United States. This means that there is no way back for the United States. The only way that awaits them is war.

"Gentlemen, the Chinese Empire has declared war on us, and I have decided to officially declare war on the Chinese Empire tomorrow! The United States of America is not afraid of war, and the great American people will fight to the end! President Polk said categorically.

"Gentlemen, we have no way out now, and the only thing we can do is to do our best to ensure victory in the war. Although the Chinese Empire is strong, their army needs to cross tens of thousands of kilometers of the Pacific Ocean to attack us, and we are fighting on our own soil, so we will undoubtedly have an advantage. So, the probability that we will win the war is not low! President Polk continued.

"Your Excellency, although the Chinese have to cross the Pacific Ocean, the tonnage of China's military transport ships and merchant ships is enough to ensure their war consumption. On the other hand, if we were to fight the Chinese Empire on the West Coast, we would have to supply our army through the entire North American continent. Coupled with the poor transportation conditions in the western region, our supply will not be much easier than that of the Chinese. "Vice President George. M. Dallas said. Obviously, he believes that it will not be so easy for the United States to win the war.

"It's difficult, but we have to have faith. 20 million American citizens will support us, this is our guarantee to win the war! "Secretary of State James Murphy. Buchanan said.

"Your Excellency the Minister of War, you can arrange the following war matters!" President Polk said.

"Yes, Your Excellency. In order to defend against the attack of the Chinese Empire, the War Department planned to expand the size of the army from the current 500,000 to 1 million. At present, we have deployed 100,000 troops on the West Coast, a total of 8 infantry divisions, led by Army General George Brown. Admiral Crawford commanded. According to the information we have received, the troops transported by the Chinese to the Hawaiian Islands amounted to 120,000 people. Therefore, the War Department plans to send another 150,000 men to the west coast in the coming month. And, every month thereafter, additional troops will be sent to the west coast as appropriate. "Secretary of War William. L. Marcy said.

"Millions of troops, how much does this cost!" Secretary of the Treasury, Robert. J. Walker muttered twice. However, he also knows that there is no way to do this, even if it is to smash the pot and sell iron, the United States must ensure that it wins this war, otherwise, the United States will lose completely.

Just then, a White House staff member pushed open the door and entered the president's office. This made President Polk frown a little unpleasantly, but now that he was holding an emergency meeting, how could he bother casually?

"Your Excellency, we have just received news that the Kingdom of Spain has officially declared war on us!"

"Damn, the Spaniards are taking advantage of the fire!" Secretary of State James Murphy. Buchanan said angrily.

"Spaniards and Chinese have long worn a pair of pants. After the Chinese Empire declares war on us, they will definitely follow. "Secretary of the Navy John. Y. Mason said. After the Kingdom of Spain declared war on the United States, the navy of the Kingdom of Spain would definitely attack the east coast of the United States, and at that time, the main force of the American Navy would have to prepare for war.

"Gentlemen, we have one more enemy. However, I am confident that in the end, the United States of America will win. We have defeated the British twice and the Mexicans, and this time, we can also defeat the Chinese and the Spaniards, the great people of the United States of America, will not give in, will fight to the end! President Polk said firmly.

On the afternoon of July 27, 1847 Eastern Time, President James Murphy of the United States. Knox. On behalf of the United States, Polk officially declared war on the Chinese Empire and the Kingdom of Spain.

The next day, the French Second Republic also declared war on the United States, and the United States had no choice but to fight hard! (To be continued......)
