"Being a person requires integrity, and a country must emphasize integrity. What are you doing? Do you want to break the contract? You have to recognize anything signed in black and white. I hate people who don't keep integrity. I really can't believe this despicable behavior.
It is simply baffling that it would appear on the top leader of a country, His Excellency the President." The German government had not yet responded to the actions of the Americans, but Emperor Yang was the first to become unable to sit still. This guy was urgent.
Summoned the ministers of Germany, Russia and Spain to study ways to deal with the Americans.
Anyway, everyone has been working together for a long time, and there is no need for any disguise between each other, and the true face of greed is directly revealed.
However, the current situation is indeed difficult to handle. Russia is busy taking over Alaska, Germany is preparing to withdraw its troops from the Americas due to tensions between Britain and Germany, and the Spanish are busy taking over Florida. They are all a little overwhelmed. Even the garrison in New York has begun to be divided into groups.
After retreating, only Wang Shizhen's troops and two Russian divisions are left. The German troops have all withdrawn to Haiti and are waiting to return home in batches.
Moreover, continuing to occupy New York no longer poses much of a threat to the Americans. Even the rat holes in this city have been dug out, and even the homes of the rich have been broken into and looted by niggas hired by the Russians.
We went back and divided the loot together. This was the favorite job of Russian soldiers. Not only did they rob property, but girls often disappeared inexplicably. All in all, it turned a prosperous city like a ghost town.
"What do you mean by your majesty?" Haijing said. In fact, the Germans don't really care whether the Newport News Shipyard is destroyed or not. Anyway, even if the Newport News Shipyard is not destroyed, Americans can't expect to turn around within ten years.
"Blockade, continue the naval blockade of the United States, and prohibit the export of any commodities except oil." Emperor Yang said viciously.
Hai Jing couldn't help but frown when he said this. Although this is a good thing for Germany, the problem is that if this is the case, a large fleet must continue to be maintained in the Americas. Under the current circumstances, the German American Fleet is
Must exit.
"There is no need to worry about this. The German Navy only needs to keep one or two battleships there as a token. I am planning to transfer the fleet mainly composed of the Taihang and Wuyi to the Americas to replace the current American Task Force. This fleet
They are also all composed of the latest diesel engine fleet." Emperor Yang waved his hand nonchalantly and said.
This is an excellent opportunity to show off their power, and let the two giant ships go to America to scare those white ghosts. In addition, this is also an excellent opportunity for ocean training. The people hiding in the harbor are not real navy. He is going to send them to America.
The Taihang, the Wuyi, and the two newly commissioned large armored cruisers Changbai and Tianshan were all sent to the Americas. Anyway, there is a shipyard of Yang Company in Havana, so there is no need to worry about maintenance issues. As for the ammunition supply, Dirk
Sars is solved.
Of course, his main purpose of doing this is to encourage the people of the southern United States represented by the three states of Texas. Currently, the three states are building momentum for independence. Germany's lack of time to look west will definitely have an impact on their independence movement. This move is to tell them
.Don't be afraid, even if the Germans don't bother to help you, I, Emperor Yang, will never forget you.
Since he made this decision, the other three families would naturally have no objections. Spain had to continue to maintain their military power in the Americas, and their reception of Florida was not smooth. The local residents' resistance was fierce, and there are still a large number of guerrillas.
is active. Moreover, the United States is still maintaining military pressure on the border, and the Spanish troops stationed in the Americas will not retreat.
The same is true for Russia. The drug trade is showing its strong ability to attract money. Although the sales growth in the U.S. market has been slow due to the impact of the war, sales in the European market are in full swing, and they are even listed on drugstore shelves in the name of drugs. However,
Criticisms about the abuse of this new analgesic drug have also begun to appear in newspapers. In Europe, which is naturally sensitive to drugs, it is only a matter of time before the public sale of this drug is banned.
Of course, these will not have a real impact on this kind of business. The Russians know this very well. They themselves have tested the power of this thing many times. Even if European countries ban open sales, secret sales through underground channels cannot be banned.
Yes, this thing is not a rudimentary product like opium. It can be easily penetrated from Eastern Europe. In order to ensure the operation of this minting machine, Russia must maintain a strong military deterrence in the Americas.
In fact, the matter was not as troublesome as Yang Feng thought. When the Allied Forces Command in the Americas issued a public statement, claiming that because the U.S. government had unilaterally violated the peace treaty, it would continue to maintain its occupation of New York and maintain the blockade of U.S. ports.
After banning all U.S. commodities except crude oil from leaving the port, the U.S. government immediately became honest. Especially when the German government issued a statement accepting the suggestion of Chinese Foreign Minister Zhang Quan to withdraw the fleet that was confronting them, and at the same time, it was willing to go to South Africa with British volunteers in Germany.
After negotiations on joining the war, the last hope of the United States was gone. It had no choice but to blow up the Newport News Shipyard and the two battleships. At the same time, it sank the remaining four submarines under the supervision of the coalition forces.
Submarine factory in Norfolk.
But this does not prevent the Chinese Navy's Americas Task Force from changing defenses. The Aetherline is the flagship and includes two battleships, two large armored cruisers, six Canglong-class armored cruisers, and six Fubo-class large destroyers. The fleet is officially
Set off for the Americas to replace the Lin Taizen fleet there. However, the withdrawn Lin Taizeng fleet will not return to the country. They will replace the Liu Buchan fleet, and the Liu Buchan fleet will withdraw to the country.
According to the Treaty of Versailles, the fleet has withdrawn from San Francisco Bay to Honolulu, and has officially leased Pearl Harbor from the Hawaiian government. A large naval base is under construction there. In addition to the navy, the army forces led by Lin Chaodong have also withdrawn, and the Fourth Division continues
Stationed in Hawaii, the 1st Division retreated to the country.
Of course, according to the Treaty of Versailles, the United States does not have the right to station troops in San Francisco, including in the 10,000-square-kilometer Chinese Autonomous Region with San Francisco as the core and the entire San Francisco Bay coast. The U.S. military has no right to station either the navy or the army, but is organized by the autonomous region itself.
The Self-Defense Forces are responsible for garrisoning. To put it bluntly, they are a group of Chinese soldiers who have changed their vests plus overseas Chinese troops. Anyway, as long as they guard the coast of San Francisco Bay, they can land in America whenever they like.
But at the same time as the troops were withdrawing from the west coast of the United States, the Taihang Fleet led by Lin Yongsheng rushed to the eastern part of the Americas, but they were joined by two army divisions. These two divisions will arrive in Hawaii on large fast troop carriers, and then meet and land in Hawaii.
The purpose of the fleet heading to America together is to support the independence of Texas. Of course, it is also to prevent Texas from becoming independent. If so, Emperor Yang will inevitably incite some Chinese to revolt, and then use this as an excuse to land in Texas.
, anyway, there is a complete military industrial base there, and there are nearly one million Chinese and Asians. When the time comes, they can completely control this state if they are armed.
However, as a result, China currently needs a larger foothold in the Caribbean. Obviously, a small Peace Harbor is not enough.
"How about Puerto Rico? We can definitely spend money to buy this colony, not in the name of the Chinese government, but in the name of the royal family. Anyway, I already have three territories directly under the royal family. It would be good to add another one."
Emperor Yang looked at the map and said to Yuan Shikai.
He now owns three territories directly under the royal family: Kuwait, Jeju Island, and Tanegashima. They are not under the jurisdiction of the Chinese Federal Imperial Government. The latter two are fiefdoms given to him by North Korea and Ryukyu. After he became emperor, these two territories
Naturally, it was impossible to return the place. It happened that Hamid II gave him Kuwait as a gift, so he followed the Kuwait model and used these two places as a gift for his accession to the throne in the name of offering land. They were managed by the royal family themselves and did not belong to
governed by the Imperial Government.
"Will the Spaniards sell it? What about the price?" Yuan Shikai said doubtfully, but then he realized that he was just asking many times. The Spaniards would definitely sell it. As for the price, they didn't have to pay at all.
The construction cost of those two perfect battleships is waived. Puerto Rico is nothing more than sugar and fruit. Now that Spain has Florida, why does it care about such a small place?
"They will!" Emperor Yang said calmly.
Of course the Spaniards do. Canovas has long understood that it is not safe for Spain to be tied to any country in Europe. Instead, it is safest to be tied to this distant Chinese emperor. With his behind-the-scenes support, Spain will not be able to return.
It turns out that its status in Europe will at least be on the same level as Italy. It is just Puerto Rico, and it is not a valuable place. Moreover, Yang Feng continues to increase troops in the Americas, which will only benefit Spain and not harm it. Now the international community only needs
You don't have to be blind to see that this emperor, who keeps claiming that he is an old friend of the American people, obviously has very special feelings for the United States, and seems to be unwilling to give up until he kills this country.
Negotiations on Puerto Rico were soon completed in Beijing by the Spanish Minister to China, Guo Luqian, and the Emperor's Chief of Staff, Yuan Shikai. The Chinese Emperor Yang Feng purchased the Spanish colony of Puerto Rico from the Kingdom of Spain in his private capacity for four million pounds. However,
Not paying in cash, but building two perfect battleships for the Spanish government for free. These two ships were originally orders from Spain, but now they are just waiving the cost.
So far, a new territory has been added to Emperor Yang's empire. (To be continued...)
