The next change in the political situation in the United States can be said to be completely logical. Wilson took over as President of the United States, and then the U.S. government announced the withdrawal of all federal troops from Alabama and the release of political prisoners previously arrested for participating in the Alabama Revolution.
, including those terrorists arrested for attacking U.S. troops in Afghanistan, were also released under the amnesty order signed by Wilson. At the same time, the U.S. government issued a statement respecting the right of the people of Alabama to make free choices, regardless of whether Alabama chooses independence or continues to remain.
Neither the federal government nor the U.S. government will interfere in any further way.
This is tantamount to admitting the independence of Alabama in disguise. In fact, after struggling so far, Americans have long been tired of this issue. After all, there is no point in getting nervous about this nonsense every day. Even the Alabamians themselves are tired of it.
It's annoying, it doesn't matter to them whether they are independent or not, the important thing is to get this matter settled quickly, so as not to panic when bombs explode every now and then.
Regarding the change in attitude of the Americans, the other four countries in the Caribbean Alliance, except Germany, successively expressed their welcome. Immediately afterwards, the coalition headquarters in Havana announced the lifting of the blockade of American ports. With the ships lingering outside major American ports,
The battleships and cruisers began to evacuate, and the clouds of war that had shrouded the country for three years finally dissipated. The capitalists were almost crying with joy, and a glittering golden door finally opened in front of them.
However, only then did they realize that it was not easy to exploit Europe's war wealth. First of all, the money of the European powers had been wiped out by the Chinese. Even if there were some leftovers, someone had already taken the place. Secondly,
Because of the continuous shrinkage of industry, the technological level of the United States has been greatly separated from that of the world, and of course mainly China. At this time, the best-selling products on the market such as special steel, aluminum alloys, petrochemical products... these are basically
These are all products that the United States does not have the ability to produce. What they can provide and are competitive in the market are crude steel, crude oil, etc.
Of course, even so, this is still something worth celebrating. After all, except for agricultural products, they couldn't even sell these outside.
Unfortunately, they knew next that things were far from that simple. This money was not something anyone could make. At the same time that the Caribbean Alliance announced the lifting of the blockade, Germany also announced unrestricted submarine warfare against the Allied Powers. Any
German submarines would sink any merchant ship bound for the Allied Powers, regardless of whether it was a neutral country or not.
Of course, this is just talk. Those merchant ships flying the flags of China and other countries covered by Emperor Yang definitely do not need to consider this issue. William will not sink them even if his head is kicked by a donkey. In this way,
The only targets targeted are the United States, and Brazil, but Brazil cannot provide much to the United Kingdom.
The first American merchant ship loaded with steel bound for Britain was sunk by a German submarine as soon as it entered the Celtic Sea.
This news made the capitalists immediately furious, and then they began to exaggerate the cruelty of the Germans in newspapers, but it did not cause much response, because before this, the United States only exported agricultural products to Europe. German submarines had never been
No American merchant ships were attacked. A large amount of American agricultural products were even re-exported to Germany through Sweden, and the number of American agricultural products exported to the Allies exceeded that of the Allies. This is not surprising, because Britain and France also have colonial supplies. Germany and Austria-Hungary did not have colonies.
The agricultural products could be plundered, and the Americans knew exactly why the German submarine sank the merchant ship.
However, the American capitalists did not give up their efforts and still used all their energy to smear Germany in the United States to lay the foundation for their expected American participation in the war. On the other side, the German submarines ignored their jumping up and down and continued to work there one after another.
The ground sank an American merchant ship transporting industrial products to Britain. This strange situation baffled all parties, including the British, who found it a bit strange.
Because no matter how you look at it, it looks like Germany is deliberately irritating the Americans, and this is the last thing the Germans should do under the current circumstances. They should know very well that once the United States with a population of 50 million joins the Allied Powers
What does it mean to the war situation? At that time, China did not even need to participate in the war. The Allies would definitely lose. The balance on the European battlefield is extremely fragile now. It can be said that as long as one million more people join the Western Front, the Allies will definitely break through the German army on the French border.
area’s defense line.
In fact, from the perspective of Britain and France, the best option for the Allies at this time is to sue for peace. After all, their defeat is almost certain. There is no possibility of a comeback. The most they can do is linger on for a while. No matter how hard they struggle, they cannot change it.
Destiny, at this time, suing for peace with Britain, France, and Russia will not end up killing them all. After all, we have been fighting for centuries, and we are all related to each other, and our interests are also complicated. Just like Germany, it is returning Alsace and Lorraine to France.
, at most, the Rhineland will be compensated, and then some land will be compensated to Russia. The same is true for the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Finally, more compensation will be paid, and the fleet will be taken out to let the winner divide it. The army will limit the number in the future. This is basically the same.
That's pretty much it. You should still sit on the throne and so on.
After all, at this time, neither Britain, France nor Russia, which still had enough strength, wanted to continue the war.
Unfortunately, they did not know that Zeng Guangquan, the Chinese government's special envoy and former ambassador to Germany, had arrived in Berlin and brought an autographed letter from His Majesty the Chinese Emperor to the Kaiser and the Austrian Emperor. In this autographed letter, Emperor Yang officially promised them that
Once China is ready militarily, it will join the Allies at the appropriate time and declare war on the Allied Powers. Therefore, the Germans are completely confident now.
Of course, before this, there are still some issues of interest distribution between the two sides that need to be discussed clearly, such as the carving up of the scope of power after the war. First of all, Asia and the Pacific are definitely monopolized by China, but China will definitely not interfere in Africa. That of your allies
Divide it among yourself. As for Russia, because of the special relationship between Emperor Yang and William's cousin, he must still let it exist.
Neither William nor Emperor Joseph had any objections to this. In fact, they never wanted to destroy Russia. All they wanted was enough Russian territory, such as Poland, Ukraine, Lithuania, and Belarus. Regarding this, China
Naturally, they respect it very much. China's request is only for the Ural Mountains, the Ural River, and the eastern part of the Caspian Sea. This is enough. In addition, these Chinese territories will have to be reprinted several times.
In this way, the two sides keep Russia in the middle as a buffer zone to avoid conflicts that may arise if they get too close in the future.
As for the partition of the Americas, it can be said that with the Panama Canal as the boundary, the north is China's sphere of influence, and the south is Germany and Austria's sphere of strength. From now on, each will grab what they have. Germany and Austria fully respect this.
In Europe, France will definitely cut off the area north of the Seine River. It will be enough for Britain to lose its colonies and let Ireland become independent. As for Italy, the northern part will definitely belong to the Austro-Hungarian Empire. It originally belonged to them, but it was Prussia back then.
It was just snatched away by the Italians when they were ravaging Austria.
Of course, Emperor Yang did not forget to give his younger brothers a share in these divisions, such as awarding Jamaica to Spain, awarding Crimea and part of Russia's territory in the Caucasus to Hamid II, etc.
, which fully demonstrated the virtues that Emperor Yang should have as a responsible boss.
Germany and Austria have no objections to these. In fact, it is not their turn to have any objections at this time. Once China falls to the Allies, they will get nothing. Just like Austria and Hungary, they may be in trouble.
You are still eligible to bargain.
While they were plotting to carve up the world, groups of celebrities from the Chinese cultural, business and political circles were visiting the UK in a high-profile manner, especially the visit of a delegation of members of the House of Commons, which set off a turmoil in London.
At the peak of Sino-British friendship, when those smiling MPs were communicating with the British people in Hyde Park, the entire Allied Powers were already convinced that it would not be long before they heard the news that the Chinese would fight alongside them.
And in fact, China and Britain are indeed having substantive discussions on this issue, such as the Indonesian issue, or simply put, the Sumatra oil field issue.
In fact, with the outbreak of a large-scale rebellion in India, the British were no longer able to maintain the Indonesian battlefield. Curzon took away all the Japanese mercenaries who could fight there. It would be good if the remaining Indian soldiers did not mutiny. How could they still be in the mood?
Go and fight the monkeys, hiding in several major cities one by one, looking longingly at their distant hometown, looking forward to going back to fight bloody battles for India's independence and freedom. As for the Russians, they are sending a division to India to support the British
After another division was taken away and sent to Colombia, there were already less than 150,000 people left in Southeast Asia. Not to mention continuing to attack the Indonesian islands, the offensive was also stopped on the islands in the southern Philippines, and even the monkeys were given up.
The most intense resistance was in Cebu.
In this way, it no longer makes any sense for Britain and Russia to continue to entangle Indonesia. Since Emperor Yang wants this place, it can only be given to him. In addition to Indonesia, there is also the German colony in the Philippines. This place
Originally it was what Russia wanted, but now China wants it and can only give it to it. Then there is Western Australia. Although Australia has already joined it at this time, Western Australia has not joined the Australian Federation and is still a colony directly under the British control.
The British also know that Yang Feng must insist on this area. After all, it is the earliest territory of His Majesty the Emperor, and the Chinese have become the main body of Western Australia. Now that they are demanding Yang Feng, they naturally cannot dwell on this issue.
, in fact, the more Yang Feng wants, the more relieved the British, French and Russian families will be. If Yang Feng wants nothing, that is what they need to worry about. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
