The sun once again penetrated the heavy fog that shrouded Britain, and penetrated through the glass window into the gloomy Prime Minister's Conference Room.
The owner of No. 10 Downing Street, the Chief Minister of the Empire and the chief scapegoat jointly elected by the Tory and Whig parties, the Duke of Wellington, listened to the US Secretary of State who came from afar to describe in detail the Manhattan bombing incident, the Battle of the North Atlantic (later
After recent major events in the New World such as the First Battle of the North Atlantic) and the United States' declaration of war on Mexico, the gentlemanly smile hanging on the corners of the mouth has disappeared without a trace.
"You lost the battle in the North Atlantic!"
The British Lord of the Admiralty, Viscount Palmerston, who accompanied the Duke of Wellington to receive the US Secretary of State, couldn't help but interjected, with a hint of blame in his tone. He didn't blame the Americans for losing the war, but he blamed the Americans for losing the war.
A tragic defeat was exaggerated into a victory, causing the Admiralty to come under pressure from Parliament - Why can the US Navy win, but your Royal Navy always loses? Is it because the Lord of the Admiralty lacks leadership skills?
"No," George Van Buren said plausibly, "this is not a failure for us in the United States, but a failure for the entire Western world. Including the United Kingdom, France, Prussia, Austria and other Western countries, they were all losers in the North Atlantic Campaign.
!”
"But we are not at all involved in the war!" British Foreign Secretary Robert Peel pointed out.
"You are not a loser if you don't participate in the war?" George Van Buren said, "Your Excellency, Foreign Secretary, think about it, where is New York? Where is the North Atlantic? The Yellow Peril has penetrated deep into the North Atlantic and defeated the brave United States.
The Navy of the United States. Moreover, the Navy of the United States is the only navy in the entire West that dares to stand up and fight against the Yellow Peril. This in itself means the failure of the entire Western civilization!"
It has to be said that the American politicians are definitely better than the British in their ability to talk nonsense. For this point, look at the great, honorable and upright words in the Declaration of Independence and the Mayflower Compact.
You can tell in words. It is really hard to imagine that these documents were produced by a group of slave owners who killed the North American Indians to almost extinction and used African slaves to develop the plantation industry. Compared with them, British people like Viscount Palmerston
The various remarks left by politicians to future generations look more like a great American who was good at skinning Indians and enslaving black people.
George Van Buren continued: "Dear Mr. Prime Minister, Dear Foreign Secretary, can you tell me that when the American freedom fighters fought against the powerful Yellow Peril Fleet in the cold North Atlantic for the collective benefit of Western civilization, the great and powerful
What are the politicians of the glorious United Kingdom doing?"
When these words were asked, the old faces of the Duke of Wellington and Robert Peel became a little hot. Because during this period, in addition to continuing to promote the construction of naval armaments, they were busy with all kinds of shameful back-room diplomacy. Among them
The matter of marrying Victoria, the future Queen of England and the current Princess Regent of the United Kingdom, to King Zhu Xi of Minglu!
Of course, the effort to resolve the conflict through a political marriage is just one of the many options of the British Empire. Uniting the West to defeat the Yellow Peril of the Ming Dynasty and pushing the British Empire to the position of truly leading the world still includes the Duke of Wellington.
The highest goal of all members of the British Cabinet, including
It’s just that Britain, which has experienced too many storms and vicissitudes, was successively conquered by the Romans, Anglo-Saxons, and Normans, and was threatened by the empire of Charles V, the empire of Louis XIV, and the empire of Napoleon. Compared with his self-reliance, Britain
The "American filial son" who has had smooth sailing since the founding of the United States is still much more tactful and will think more about how to preserve his strength when the situation is not favorable to him.
And this kind of smoothness also made the British Empire more willing to seek compromise when facing the distant and powerful enemy of the Ming Dynasty. After all, the Ming Dynasty was not a European country, and they could not pose a threat to the survival of the United Kingdom. The Ming Dynasty and the British fought for
Yes, it is nothing more than an overseas colony, and there is room for compromise on this matter.
George Van Buren, who knew the thoughts of the British Empire, saw that the Duke of Wellington did not say a word, and knew that the British must still be discussing compromise with the Ming Dynasty in private - this is the virtue of these old imperialists, except not allowing the European continent
There is a trend of unification in the world, and everything else can be compromised.
Otherwise, the United States would not even exist - if the British took the initiative to form an anti-French alliance to oppose the United States, the United States would definitely not be able to withstand it.
However, the United States cannot allow her "father Ying" to compromise with the Ming Dynasty. The United States must fight to the end for the United States!
Thinking of this, George Van Buren said to the Duke of Wellington: "We in the United States have never been afraid of power. Since the founding of our country, we have gone to war with the British Empire, the French Republic, and the Spanish Empire. We even
He even fought against the Barbary pirates in North Africa!
Facing these former enemies, we in the United States have never felt fear!
This time, we will not be afraid either. We firmly believe that God will stand with the brave people of the United States, and the final victory will belong to the United States and her people!
Therefore, we will never accept the humiliating peace imposed by the Ming Dynasty. Even if New York turns into a sea of fire, even if the trade on the Atlantic is completely blocked by the Ming Dynasty's navy, even if tens of millions of Americans die heroically on the land of Texas, we will all
Fight to the end!"
Now the British have big heads.
The two sons of Daying are both trouble-free! The knees of Daying’s filial son India are too soft, and anyone can kneel down on them. Filial piety is filial, but if you expect them to go to the battlefield, you must be prepared to collapse at the first touch.
And the United States, a rebellious child, has really strong bones - not many years after the founding of the country, the world's world empires were all provoked. After fighting Britain and France, they fought against Britain a few years after fighting France. After fighting,
The British went to seize Spanish Florida again, and even took time out of their busy schedule to go to the Mediterranean to fight against the Barbary Pirate State! Now they are fighting against Mexico and Japan, which are supported by the Ming Empire.
And except for Ming Dynasty, Mexico, and Japan, which they just fought against, the United States has not suffered any losses yet!
There is really nothing to say about this American martial ethics.
But now the war between the United States and Ming Dynasty, Mexico, and Japan is very likely to cause great harm to Britain!
Because once the United States chooses to fight to the end, the North Atlantic will become a battlefield. The Ming Dynasty (Mexico, Japan) and the United States will attack each other's sea lines of communication, which means that there will be problems in transatlantic trade. The United Kingdom exports goods and imports to the United States
Cotton's route may be cut off as a result.
Another thing that the British cannot bear is that the United States' intransigence will inevitably cause Mexico to be firmly tied to the Ming Dynasty's chariot - if the war lasts for several years, the Nicaragua Canal will be opened, and then the Ming Dynasty's navy will be able to easily
canals into the Caribbean and Atlantic Ocean
George Van Buren added: "Duke, I think you should have recognized the reality now - there is a war for world dominance between us Western white people and the Eastern yellow people led by Ming Dynasty. If we
If this side loses the war, then in the next few hundred years, the world will be ruled by the yellow race. And if the yellow race wants to rule the world, they must also control the world's main oceans!
Is the ocean something we can lose? Is it something the UK can lose? If not, Your Excellency, where do you think we should invest heavy troops? Is it in India and Australia, which are very close to East Asia, or across the sea in Europe?
North America and the Caribbean? If Britain still wants to win, then don’t hesitate anymore and join the war immediately! Only by going all out can we win!
Otherwise, once the United States is defeated, the Ming Empire will become a North Atlantic country!"
