Chapter 537 Conditions for Participation in the War
The secession trend in the United States made Emperor Yang feel as if he had been hit on the forehead by a gold cake. However, if you think about it carefully, it is not surprising. This country is nothing more than a collection of interests, without any ties of nation, history, and tradition.
As for the spirit of liberal democracy, it's all bullshit. When the conflicts of interests between states are irreconcilable, separation becomes inevitable. This is no different from the Civil War. At that time, they were nothing more than farmers and industrial capitalists.
The contradiction between the two countries reached an irreconcilable level, and today it is just a replica.
Since they have such an idea, they must fully support it. All media controlled by the Yang Group in the United States, whether openly controlled or secretly controlled, have all joined the ranks of propaganda to promote the benefits of separation to Americans.
, let them understand that continuing to be tied together will only drag each other down in the end. In fact, there is no need to promote this. The successive independence of the Confederacy and Alabama has long since made the word United States lose its luster. Now it is just a puncture.
Just the last layer of window paper.
At the same time, those Chinese American leaders who were Emperor Yang's direct agents also began to convey Emperor Yang's promise to the two political forces in the United States in various ways, so that they all understood that a unified United States would become a potential threat to China, so Emperor Yang's
It has only dealt with the United States in various ways in recent years, but a divided United States will no longer pose a threat to China. Not only will it no longer be an enemy, but it will become China's friend, because the stability of North America is related to China's food security.
Even the Americans themselves understand this. China's industrial development has come at the expense of agriculture. Currently, China has no ability to rely on domestic production to maintain food consumption. It must purchase a large amount of food from abroad, mainly the United States, every year. But in this way
The consequences are also obvious. Once this quantity exceeds a certain critical value, it means that the United States can control China with food. This is of course impossible for Emperor Yang to accept, so he needs the United States to be weakened to the point that he is able to control it.
The point. Before this point is reached, the United States is his main enemy.
In other words, he will never stop harming the United States until he has the ability to control the United States. Americans will never have peace. They want to gain peace and tranquility without the ability to use force to solve this evil dragon hovering over the Americas.
In today's life, Americans have only one way to surrender, and dividing oneself is the best way to surrender.
The farmers will feel free to continue living a leisurely pastoral life under his wings. As for the America of the capitalists, because there is the America of the farmers in the middle as an isolation. They no longer need to face China directly. How do they want to develop?
It has nothing to do with Emperor Yang anymore. This can be said to be a happy separation.
While he was fully active in the United States, Yang Feng also began to carry out activities against the bosses behind the capitalists. The Chinese Ambassador to the United Kingdom clearly conveyed His Majesty the Emperor's wish to the British government. The separation of the United States is a matter that is beneficial to both China and Britain.
The thing is, after the separation, the United States can have half of the family. China only needs the farms and plantations in the Midwest and South of the United States. As for the factories and mines in other states, it has no interest.
In fact, the British also welcome the division of the United States, not only because this can immediately get a new force to join the battlefield, but more importantly, judging from the previous development of the United States. If this country is not weakened, it will not be a big deal to the United Kingdom.
Good thing.
In addition, Yang Feng also released a temptation that made the British heart beat faster.
"Your Excellency Ambassador, you should know that we Chinese people are relatively calm in character. We don't like to take risks, even the smallest danger." At a manor outside Beijing, Attendant Yuan listened to the music of his concubine.
He said to the British Ambassador to China Juldian who was sitting next to him.
Zhu Erdian smiled and said nothing, waiting for his words. The ambassador to China, who had just taken office for less than a year, knew very well that His Excellency, the Chief Attendant, invited him here not only to enjoy music.
"That's why we don't like war. Unless it's a sure-fire war without any suspense." Yuan Shikai continued.
"Your Excellency, Marquis, isn't the situation in Europe clear enough? What's more, even if the Allied Powers still have some resistance, as long as your country joins the battlefield, their little strength will be a joke." Zhu Erdian said, he knew that today would be the end of the world.
It was the final showdown, and Emperor Yang would formally clarify under what circumstances he would join the war.
"They still have a total of nearly 10 million troops. I don't think this strength is just a little bit. If Germany and Austria surrender immediately after China sends troops, then naturally there will be nothing to say. But if they still resist resolutely after we send troops,
What? Even if we can win the war at that time, I am afraid that China will have to lose dozens or even millions of soldiers. This is definitely not possible. You must understand that the Chinese people still have deep feelings for Germany and Austria. Helping you has already made the country proud.
His Majesty feels uneasy. If countless Chinese families lose their loved ones because of this, he will be very sad and blame himself." Yuan Shikai said.
To put it bluntly, I just want to get something for nothing. I just want to send troops to Europe for a formality and then carve up the world under the banner of the victorious country. I will never do anything with bloodshed and sacrifice. Zhu Erdian really despises this shameless behavior, but this is also
Indeed, it can explain why China has not participated in the war until now. It is simply that it feels that it is not safe enough, and is afraid that once Germany and Austria enter the war and do not surrender, the Chinese will have to face a real battle.
"Your Excellency, Marquis, under what circumstances do you think it is considered a sure thing?" Zhu Erdian didn't want to argue with him in vain, so he simply went straight to the topic. Since you want to be sure, you have to give a standard, right?
"It's very simple, when the soldiers of the Allied Powers set foot on German soil." Yuan Shikai said with a smile.
Zhu Erdian frowned. This condition is not low. He is very clear about the current war situation in Europe. There is almost no such possibility on the Western Front. The only one that can achieve a breakthrough is the Eastern Front. But based on the current situation of the Russian army, it is estimated that there will be absolutely no chance this year.
, after all, they have not even penetrated Poland now, and with the gradual shortage of material supplies and the intensifying turmoil in Russia, even Britain and France are not sure whether the Russians have the ability to continue to attack, especially
After the Paris Commune, they clearly understood the destructive power of those Russians.
"Then we have to wait until the United States joins the war." Zhu Erdian said honestly, so don't expect China to join the war this year. The United States has not yet resolved the issue of whether to join the war. Moreover, even if the United States joins the war, will it be able to solve the problem on the Western Front?
It's hard to say. After all, the U.S. military has not won a single victory since the last century. It is either a failure or a failure. It is naturally difficult to place too much hope on such an army.
Moreover, the U.S. Army currently only has 800,000 people. If it is not divided, it will definitely not participate in the war. If it is divided, only half of the United States will participate in the war. The problem of dividing this army needs to be solved first. After the division is completed, it needs to be reorganized. This
This series of work takes a lot of time. After half a year of hard work, it is already considered a blessing to be able to send two armies to the European battlefield. In fact, it still cannot end the war this year.
"Your Excellency, Ambassador, why do you think of a simple problem so complicated? There is no need to wait for the Americans. Those rubbish are just waving flags and shouting. Why don't you withdraw the three Italian armies? Do you have to continue to give Italy
People as nannies? Can't two million of them stop one million? Besides, what can they do if they can't stop it? It's nothing more than letting Deo and Austria grab more land. They even captured the king. No matter how much they have,
It’s not a big deal if we fail a few times, and if the United States joins the war, we can let them go to Italy to help!” Yuan Shikai said.
To put it bluntly, Chief Yuan's advice to the British is to sacrifice Italy. Anyway, if they can't stop one million with two million people, they can sacrifice it. If the United States can join the war as soon as possible, then it can send the US military to the Italian battlefield to let these people
The two piles of rubbish are worse than each other, but they can free up precious British troops to join other battlefields in order to achieve breakthroughs. It should be said that this is a good suggestion and very constructive, but Zhu Erdian knows that it is not feasible.
, because the Italians will not agree. No one is a fool these days, and they will definitely not do it if they are treated as a victim. If the British insist on doing this, there is no guarantee that the Italians will react irrationally.
The Italians have been wavering over the years. In fact, Her Majesty the Queen of Italy has been writing letters to her father continuously, and based on Italy's performance in the war, they themselves know very well that Britain and France will never fulfill their commitments after the war. This
The British and French newspapers have long studied this issue. In the eyes of the British and French media, helping the Italians regain their land is worthy of these rubbish. Some time ago, the media from both sides even had a war of words. Even Italian Prime Minister Litini
He personally protested to the British and French governments.
But the problem is that if this pile of garbage is placed on the side of the Allied Powers, it is indeed a pile of garbage, but if it is placed on the side of the Allied Powers, it becomes a treasure.
Because once the Italians fall to the Allies and, together with the Venetian Allied armies, press to the south of France, which can be said to be without a single soldier, then the winner of this war will change. The Savoy family has no history.
I have never done this before. As for China, haha, the Marquis who invited me to enjoy flowers and wine will use the same enthusiasm to invite the German Ambassador to come to enjoy flowers and wine. There is no need to doubt this. (To be completed.)
