Chapter 382 Taking the Election Seriously
Ever since the substantive relationship was broken, the slave owner's nature as a bootlicker can no longer be hidden. As Gail said, he is even more attentive than serving the queen. But it's nothing, it's all very normal.
Even if he felt good about himself, the slave owner didn't think that a woman followed a man for nothing. He stretched out his hand to measure the water temperature, and then called Natalia to come in. His eyes were not idle for a moment, and he admired the picture of a beautiful woman bathing from beginning to end.
Natalia has a smooth body without any excess hair, and she claims that it is natural and has not been trimmed.
"The bathtub is still a little small, why don't you come in and squeeze in!" After enjoying such attentive care, Natalia saw that her man was still there, so she took the initiative to invite him.
"How can this be so embarrassing!" Sheffield shook his head repeatedly, his hands not slowing down at all, and his clothes fell off at the speed of light.
Some things can be done more efficiently if you focus on them, but if you work with someone else, you will be slower, and your body won't be able to handle it for too long. It was already an hour later when I came out of the bathroom.
After walking with weights, both of them achieved a pleasant effect physically and mentally. Natalia asked about what happened in the past few days and apologized for not considering Sheffield's feelings.
"It's nothing. The Japanese always start a war with a sneak attack, and they are indeed very hated. But the Japanese methods are useless against a truly powerful country." Sheffield stopped talking halfway. The truly powerful country he mentioned was not the Russian Empire.
There is a characteristic of wars before World War I in the early 20th century, that is, even if it seems that the war should be a stalemate, it will often lead to tragedy as long as one side has a slight advantage. In the Spanish-American War, although many countries believed that the United States would win, no one would have thought that the Spanish Empire, after all, was a long-established empire, and was directly beaten out.
The Philippines and Cuba, with an armed force of 300,000, were directly defeated by 20,000 expeditionary troops. It was a modern version of hundreds of thousands of people taking off their armor, and not a single man was found.
After being comforted, Natalia no longer thought about the Russo-Japanese War. She also did not expect that the real powerful country that the slave owner was talking about was the United States rather than the Russian Empire, and she fell into a deep sleep.
Watching Natalia fall asleep, Sheffield was still not sleepy, thinking about how the war would affect the United States. The most important thing, of course, was how the Morgan Alliance, as a loan provider, would be affected.
Japan's victory should not be a problem, the Russian Empire's Second Fleet crossed half the world to support East Asia. The last time this happened was when the Spanish fleet crossed the Atlantic to support Cuba, and the final result was that the US Navy fleet destroyed the Spanish fleet without any damage.
Since the Japanese fleet attacked Incheon, the strength of the entire Russian Navy and the Japanese Combined Fleet has been equal. This is different from the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, when the Beiyang Fleet was actually inferior to the Combined Fleet in the year of the war, and the Combined Fleet had just surpassed the Beiyang Fleet that year.
While fighting head-on, Japan was good at inciting unrest. During the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, Japan made the Qing Dynasty believe that if the war continued, the Qing Dynasty would be overthrown by the Han people. In fact, Japan did send a large number of manpower to incite this matter. The earliest source of the so-called founding of the Eighteen Provinces of the Han people appeared in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895. Japan issued a sincere admonition to the heroes of the Eighteen Provinces, saying that it could cooperate with the Han people and make the Han people independent. As for the independence of the Han people, everyone used the Great Wall as a boundary.
The same is true for the Russian Empire. In fact, even after the destruction of the Baltic Fleet, the Russian Empire still has the strength to fight. For the Russian Empire, it doesn't matter if the sea battle is lost, the army is decisive. As long as the Siberian Railway is still running, the Russian Empire's troops and supplies can be continuously transported to the Far East. If the Tsar adds more chips and transfers the elite Russian troops in Europe to fight another battle, Japan will definitely not be able to hold on.
Both Imperial Russia and the Qing Dynasty were internally unstable and did not dare to continue gambling, which allowed Japan to barely escape unscathed.
"But the Japanese Combined Fleet won too easily!" Sheffield looked at Natalia, considering whether to make it more difficult for Japan to win. After all, the Imperial Russian Navy came across half the world, and it was bound to lose. It just depended on how they lost.
But when I think of the tradition of the Japanese navy and army undermining each other, it is better to maintain this balance, otherwise it will not be able to take advantage of it when it confronts the United States. If the navy wins beautifully, it will look down on the army even more.
No matter how Japan wins, Sheffield ultimately believes that it will not be possible to recover the Morgan Alliance's loan in a short period of time. It seems that Japan's call for women to go to Southeast Asia to sell themselves is related to its financial collapse.
The Olympic Games and World Expo in St. Louis were still being held as scheduled. The Chicago pollution incident had disappeared by then, and the doctors who were summoned to Chicago by Rockefeller Jr. were also invited to St. Louis by Sheffield.
The slave owners used a little bribe to have these doctors of different nationalities write a report on how to prevent diseases through exercise. Doctors are such a respected profession, and the World Medical Congress had just ended, so it was perfect to use the report to hype up the Olympics.
Although this is just Sheffield, waving the flag for happy education through the field of authority. But I believe the effect should be very good. Exercise itself can improve the body's immunity. This is not a deception. Any technology is neutral. It depends on what the user thinks. The citizens of the United States of America are unfortunate. Sheffield is a slave owner who likes to deliberately turn good things into bad things.
Doctors are promoting health campaigns, which is a good thing. Sheffield wants to use health campaigns to take up study and work time. He can use the kindness of doctors to accomplish his own bad things.
"Jesla, don't let the newspapers publish accusations against Japan, at least our newspapers shouldn't do that. Also, Japanese athletes in the Olympics must be respected. Oh, don't let Natalia know about this." Sheffield found an opportunity to quietly instruct the head bodyguard. "As for the other thing, it must be done in secret. Although the Russo-Japanese War is thousands of miles away and has nothing to do with the United States, we must be careful in our country and have the KKK members everywhere keep a close eye on it."
Sheffield really thought for a long time about what impact the Russo-Japanese War would have on the United States. In the end, he came up with the biggest impact, not the impact brought by the Morgan Alliance, but the black community in the country.
After Japan won the Russo-Japanese War, it almost lost everything, which led to a surge in the number of women going to Southeast Asia to sell their bodies. However, it successfully packaged the war as a victory over the white people and gained a lot of reputation.
Why do we say that the United States is related? There are also black people in the United States. Regardless of whether the blacks are honest or not, if Japan wins, it will have an impact on the black people in the United States. It is hard to guarantee that nothing will happen, even if the blacks don't dare to do anything directly.
When I met my partners again, together with the athletes from South Africa and Australia, they also became friends in Sheffield. After a few days of getting along with each other, these athletes, who came from wealthy families, felt that the greatest gain from participating in the Olympics was not a medal, but meeting friends with similar ideas.
Several people expressed the hope that distinguished guests from the United States could have the opportunity to visit Australia and South Africa. Sheffield was eager to do so and agreed to it immediately. He also said that if there was an opportunity to do business, he might open a joint company to their hometowns, which was also welcomed positively.
"Australians and South Africans are probably the people in the world whose ideas are closest to ours." Sheffield said one evening, "Since our ideas are so similar, maybe we can use these two places to strengthen ourselves. Helping them is also helping us."
"After this election, I will try to open a branch there and see what happens!" McHale nodded first. McHale's company is a mining company, and South Africa's mining industry is world-famous. As for Australia, he believes that with such a large land, there will definitely be no shortage of mineral resources.
Sheffield looked at this ally in surprise. His vision was quite vicious. In terms of the quality of iron ore, the iron ore in the United States is easier to mine than that in the Republic, but not as good as that in Brazil and Australia. These two countries are the main exporters of iron ore in later generations, and by the way, they turned the northeastern states of the United States into the rust belt.
"United Company will also develop in that direction. We should give it a try." Sheffield ended the topic and said, "What do you think of Roosevelt in this election?"
"Based on the current situation, the advantage is too great. I think it will be difficult for the Democrats to turn the tables." McHale said with a serious expression. This year happens to be an election year. Judging from the current polls and Roosevelt's own prestige, the Democratic Party seems to have lost half of its chances before the election even begins.
They are all veteran supporters of the Democratic Party, and this is the public opinion in the southern states. They have to support it and have no other choice. If they support the Republican Party, they will be regarded as traitors by the citizens of the southern states.
"But this time, I am ready to fully support the Democratic Party in the election." Sheffield rubbed the pocket watch in his hand and revealed his determination to his two partners. His attitude was very serious, which made the two narrow their eyes. They knew that Sheffield was serious this time. They said in a lost voice, "Roosevelt's advantage is so big."
"We must get the most accurate public opinion!" Sheffield didn't have much confidence, but he felt that he should bring some changes to the country. It would be more cost-effective to use this election to test the attitude of the citizens. Thinking of this, he said firmly, "This time our candidate must play the race card."
"What? Are you sure?" Even Gale, who had never been serious, was surprised and asked, "Isn't it a bit hasty?"
