Chapter 3, Zhu Houzhao, even if you dare to touch Emperor Guangwu?

White House in the office.

It was late at night, and Lincoln was thinking about it while looking at the war charts hanging on the wall.

Today's Civil War is at a critical juncture.

The Northern Union army had just repelled the counterattack of the Southern Coalition Army, and finally achieved relatively brilliant results in this war, and the initiative was on their side.

In light of the current situation of retreating from the south, they adopted a new round of strategic policy and launched a powerful offensive on both the eastern and western fronts at the same time.

On the Eastern Front, the main goal was the depletion of enemy forces; On the Western Front, with strong forces, penetrate deep into the enemy's hinterland and cut off the northeast and southwest of the "Southern Alliance".

It can be said that as long as this strategic goal is achieved.

They can completely encircle the Southern Coalition Army, and the Southern Coalition Army will do the final battle of the trapped beasts.

The victory ended in a Northern victory.

However, it was an unprecedented civil war, the war did not reach the last moment, the enemy forces did not surrender, and Lincoln did not dare to judge.

Since the war, Lincoln has participated in the war with the will of national unity.

In fact, he has had times when he was confused.

But as president of the Federation, he must always maintain confidence and have the will to preserve the integrity of the country.

"Is it really Mr. President Washington, and Jackson?"

It's just that at this moment, the appearance of this chat group disturbed his mood.

The war was a headache enough, and now there's this magical chat group that allows him to talk to past presidents.

Both the first and seventh presidents came out.

Do you need to talk to them about the current situation?

How can they help?

"No, they should be able to help......"

"Mr. Washington, when they were founded, there were many founding fathers! Mr. Franklin, President Jefferson, and President Adams ......"

"They should make some effective recommendations on the current situation......"

"And President Jackson, although he doesn't understand economics, he is a household name when it comes to fighting!"

After thinking about it for a while, Lincoln decided to say that after all, Washington not only represents Washington alone, but also represents the three great founders.

In the same way, Jackson was a brilliant war president.

There is no harm in saying it, but it is good.

With that decision in mind, Lincoln began to organize the language.

……

"The biggest crisis since the founding of the country?"

"It's not Britain that they interfere ......"

"Isn't it a war with another country?"

"What else could it be?"

At the same time, while Lincoln was thinking about what to say, Washington, on its side, couldn't help but think about it.

He really couldn't think of any of the biggest crises they had since the founding of the People's Republic of China.

His greatest enemy, Great Britain, was defeated by later presidents, and he could hardly imagine what kind of crisis the country would experience in the future.

"Could it be that someone has restored the imperial system, and this Lincoln won't be guillotined, right?"

Paying attention to the chat group again, seeing the portrait of Louis XVI, Washington's heart moved, and he had such a guess.

Emperor, Emperor.

The group leaders all said that this was the group of American emperors, could it be ......

There are really people who violate the constitution they have formulated and openly claim to be emperors.

The free and equal country they built will eventually move towards imperialism?

Washington was a little nervous about the chat group, and Lincoln's silence made him a little flustered.

……

"The biggest crisis since the founding of the country, not on the European side, has also solved the Mexican ......"

"Could it be that the day has finally come when the federation and the state will not be reconciled?"

In the same way, Jackson, who was a little bit earlier, was thinking about the biggest crisis of their nationhood.

Just thinking a little deeper, he guessed a little.

Centralization and the struggle for power in the states.

No, to be exact, a struggle for power between the elite groups of the North and the majority.

This was already evident in his tenure, and as a president who represented the aspirations of the Southern and peasant voters and rose from the grassroots to become president, Jackson knew what the Northern elites wanted to build the country into.

A centralized state.

However, most states, especially the newly established states in the South and West, don't want the federal government to be too much and stretch its hand too long.

"Or are the ugly natives who have the power to rebel against us?"

Jackson quickly thought of the natives who occupied the fertile land, and couldn't help but guess that it was the Federation behind that couldn't suppress these natives?

In short, he also thought a lot at this moment, but he was not in a hurry, waiting for Lincoln's disclosure.

He believed that if Lincoln really cared about the country's president, he would not mind telling them something.

……

"The ...... of the biggest crisis since the founding of the People's Republic of China"

"In a small local country, the biggest crisis is still hidden?"

"If it's a big deal, the country will be destroyed."

"Is this Lincoln the king of the fallen country? When you meet Taizu Xuanzong, are you embarrassed to say? ”

Zhu Houzhao was also waiting, but he didn't see Lincoln speak for a long time, and directly made a bold guess.

"That's not right! Sejo! ”

"This guy's temple number is the ancestor!"

"Shizu is most famous for Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu!"

"Isn't it...... Is their country almost usurped, and then ...... He's making a big man again, right? ”

Zhu Houzhao soon noticed Lincoln's temple number again, and as soon as the temple number of Shizu came out, he directly and subconsciously denied his random speculation.

I suddenly thought of Liu Xiu, the ancestor of the Han dynasty, Emperor Guangwu!

After all, the ancestors are meritorious, the ancestors are virtuous, and those who can be worthy of the temple name of the ancestor must have great merits.

Starting from this point, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but compare the situation faced by Liu Xiu in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

This Lincoln ancestor, did he recreate America?

He was about to make a bold guess when Lincoln, who had been silent in the group for a long time, finally spoke.

Zhu Houzhao stopped suddenly, first to see what the biggest crisis of this small country since the founding of the country was, and whether it was what he thought.

……

[Mercer Joe Lincoln: Well, Mr. Washington, Mr. Jackson, as the head of our country, you should have the right to know what is happening in our country at the moment! The biggest crisis since the founding of the country is that our country is now in a period of civil war! 】

[Mercer Joe Lincoln: We're divided.] 】

[Mercerzu Lincoln: Jefferson Hamilton Davis, a Mississippi Democrat, who convened seven southern states to declare secession from our Union and form the Union State!] This allied state was also diplomatically recognized by Britain and France. 】

[Mercerzu Lincoln: We are engaged in an unprecedented battle between the North and the South in order to maintain the complete Commonwealth!] 】

[Mercerzu Lincoln: This war began three years ago, and now it is ...... Nearly three years have passed, and a total of almost 340,000 soldiers on both sides have died. 】

[Mercerzu Lincoln: So far, we have not won, and if we lose, there will be two countries in our land, no, there may even be a Confederate state left in the end. 】

Lincoln spoke in one breath of the greatest crisis since the founding of the country.

[Mitaizu Washington: What?] Oh, God...... One more Union State? 】

Washington was decisively suppressed, and seven of the thirteen states were independent, what kind of trouble is this?

[Jackson: This ...... Why do you emphasize that it's the Democrats? This guy will form a Union State? 】

Jackson, on the other hand, expected that he was a little uncomfortable with Lincoln's need to emphasize a Democratic anti-thief alone.

After all, he is the founder of the Democratic Party.

[Supreme Group Master: This ...... That's it? Is this the biggest crisis since your founding? 】

Zhu Houzhao waited for a long time, and the biggest crisis he waited for was this, which made him feel like he took off his pants and that's it?

It took only one civil war to kill and only three or four hundred thousand casualties on both sides, which is called the biggest crisis?

What kind of crisis is this?

For a long time, he thought that Lincoln was a figure like Emperor Guangwu.

Just such a mediocrity, even at the level of an ordinary emperor, can he be called a ancestor?

In such a comparison, Song Zhenzong Zhao Heng Taishan sealed Zen, which is not shameless.
