Chapter 262 Divergence

The King's Train roared along the railway line, the scenery outside the window continued to reced, the mountains were endless, and countless lush forests and lakes were covered with a layer of snow, a cold winter scene with high clouds and vast clouds.

In the lavishly decorated train box, the floor is covered with a thick Persian carpet, and in the simple shape of the gluttonous incense burner of the mythical beast, the smoke of the lit ambergris wood rises.

Lieutenant General Chen Chuan, commander of the Royal Praetorian Guard, flashed in and reported respectfully; "Kick off the saint, the train will enter Phoenix Station in about 10 minutes, and Wechen hereby plays."

"Hmmm......"

Richard withdrew his gaze from the window, answered lightly, and said for no reason; "The trees want to be quiet and the wind doesn't stop!"

"Wechen has the audacity to speculate, isn't Your Majesty referring to the recent infiltration of Americans in the Omaha area?" Lieutenant General Chen Chuan asked cautiously.

"What do you think?" Richard did not answer directly, but asked a rhetorical question, and his eyes fell on Lieutenant General Chen Chuan.

Chen Chuan, an immigrant who arrived in North America in late 1847, was a contract worker brought in from the Manchu Qing dynasty in the original Peruvian guano mines, and remained on the island after the contract expired, continuing to work guano excavation until he had the opportunity to come to North America to find a new life.

Chen Chuan, Chen Cailiang, Minister of Economic Affairs, and Huang Yuanjia, Minister of Communications, were all a group of Zhangzhou laborers, who were known for their literacy and fairness, and quickly stood out from the immigrants.

These early immigrants were loyal, down-to-earth and hard-working, and many of them became pillars of the kingdom and were put to good use.

However, due to their academic experience, the upper limit of this group of people is not high, and their ability can only be said to be the top among ordinary people. But compared with Gu Yan and Liu Xianjun, who were once top talents who were officials, they are indeed a lot worse.

Fortunately, he is loyal and diligent, and he does some assigned things without being out of shape, which is very easy to use.

Richard didn't think about the little actions of the Yankees, but just asked so casually with the meaning of the school examination.

Lieutenant General Chen Chuan, who has been by His Majesty's side all these years, has increased his knowledge and knowledge a lot, and this question must have been pondered repeatedly in his heart, so the answer is quite smooth.

He replied;

"Back to Your Majesty's words;

Judging from the hostile situation reported by the Army General Staff Headquarters, the US military has not made any major moves, nor has it found any signs of large-scale troop and material transfers.

We're stealing;

On the one hand, the defenders of the border fortresses should be strictly ordered to strengthen their vigilance, strengthen their combat readiness, strictly guard against US infiltration and harassment actions, and crack down on and eliminate the enemy hiding in the shadows. On the other hand, it is necessary to make stern representations with the US side and resolve the dispute through diplomatic means.

A little superficial, please correct your majesty. ”

"Normally, such a response plan is right, decent, and no one can find any fault." Richard withdrew his gaze, with a slight hint of disappointment, and then commanded; "Inform the entourage ministers and the guards of the carriages to prepare to get off the train."

"Wechen obeys."

Lieutenant General Chen Chuan retreated with a little trepidation in his heart, he could feel that His Majesty was not satisfied with this answer, and he really couldn't figure it out in his heart.

The scenery outside the window receded backwards one by one, and along the railway line, some dense clusters of buildings gradually appeared, and the steam locomotive let out a long whistle that pierced the sky and spread into the distance.

At this time

The special train has entered the suburbs of Phoenix City, where vegetables and winter wheat are planted in the fields crisscrossed by ditches, and many farmers are busy working in the fields with their cattle.

Richard looked out the window, but his mind was thinking about the chaotic scene of today's American politics, and he seemed to want to sort out a clue from it.

The assassination of Republican presidential candidate Abraham Lincoln pointed to radical slave holders in the South.

This was because Abraham Lincoln, a staunch liberal, fought in the Kansas Civil War and became one of the leaders of the Northern faction, and quit the Whig Party in early 1856 to join the newly formed Republican Party and become its presidential candidate.

There was no shortage of people who hated Abraham Lincoln, both publicly and privately, enemies on the battlefield, political opponents, and Southern slaves, at least hundreds of whom had the motivation to kill him and the ability to do so.

In the United States, where shootings are frequent, if the perpetrator is not caught red-handed, it is basically like hitting the hell afterwards to detect and catch the mastermind behind the scenes.

Abraham Lincoln was a political loser with little reputation and influence, and his assassination was quickly replaced by other social hotspots, and then gradually forgotten.

The most lively scene in American politics today is undoubtedly the duo performed by outgoing incumbent President Franklin Pierce and incoming 16th President James Buchanan, which almost made public the split in the Democratic Party.

Both belong to the Democratic Party, but James Buchanan has repeatedly torn apart the semblance of peace at mass rallies, blasting Franklin Pierce with fiery language, calling him a "mediocre tinker" and nothing.

When the words reached the White House, President Franklin Pierce was so furious that he not only smashed his beloved Qing Dynasty vase, but also rudely called James Buchanan a "despicable Irish farmer."

The public scolding war waged by the two incumbent and incoming presidents has successfully attracted great attention from the US media, and it is also a kind of explosive news that the people who eat melons like to see, and even overwhelmed the news that the members of the north and south of Capitol Hill have launched an all-out armed fight.

Richard is not so bored to eat melons, he has more and more reliable sources of information than ordinary Americans, and understands that the struggle between the two presidents is actually a struggle for power.

Before James Buchanan was officially sworn in as the 16th president of the United States, he was impatient to dictate the current political and military policies of the United States, and intended to influence the military beyond the current president.

These small moves were, of course, met with a resolute backlash from President Franklin Pearce, and the current Secretary of the U.S. Army and Chief of Staff of the Continental Army submitted their resignations and were replaced by new people.

Behind this, it is because of the pressure of the White House.

Think about it!

The incumbent president has only two and a half months left in his term, so why change the two leaders of the Continental Army?

President Franklin Pierce's resolute response was tantamount to two slaps in the face of James Buchanan, swearing in the tiger's territorial consciousness.

Boy, if you want to go on stage, you should wait for two and a half months, Lao Tzu hasn't retired yet!
