Chapter 637: The Suppressed Volcano
"Oh, by the way, let's just pretend there is no black parade these days." Sheffield seemed to suddenly remember something and said to the police who only wrote that they were present, "Don't go arrest anyone."
"Why?" As soon as the words fell, there was a chorus of opposition in the police station. Many white policemen blushed and were angry. Five policemen died inexplicably, and they couldn't take revenge? What the police did was meaningless. Anyone dared to come out and pinch them.
"You can't achieve your goal by arresting people now, because you don't even know who you are arresting. You have to wait for them to come out on their own!" Sheffield paused for a moment and explained, "If you shoot them on the street, that's fine. But if you arrest people in the black community, can you really wipe out the black community in broad daylight? Although I hope you do that, it will be difficult for both the state government and Washington to handle."
"Due to my family history, I believe that no one in the United States understands black people better than I do. It is true that black people are easily angered, and when faced with strong suppression, they will be very honest and willing to cooperate. If the police do not shoot them on the spot when they commit crimes, they will be very good at deceiving people by pretending to be a vulnerable group. What's more, some white people's brains may have been damaged, and they really can't tell which side they should stand on."
When Sheffield said this, he turned to look at New York Mayor Smith Miller. There was no doubt that in his eyes, this Republican mayor was a person with a hole in his brain. He was an untrustworthy heretic!
"If the police take direct action, it will easily leave room for criticism. Many of our companies support the police, but we need help from the public to prevent people from accusing you of abusing violence." Everything should be justified. Sheffield hopes that the police who are ready to retaliate will not do so immediately. Only by playing the long game can you catch the big fish.
Public opinion is still fermenting, and citizens in many places still have only a vague understanding of what is happening in New York.
"By the way, the New York Police Department's equipment needs to be updated. I am willing to donate some vehicles on behalf of a shareholder of United General, and also give you two airships." In order to suppress the New York police's immediate retaliation and buy them some time to play the victim, Sheffield also offered compensation.
This incident can be used as the main evidence to promote the immigration amendment, but it has not been fully implemented yet. The police need to wait for two days.
Sheffield planned to divide the subsequent media coverage into two main parts. The first was to use the death of the police officer to sing praises for the immigration amendment. The second was to launch a media attack on the Republican Party, which was a party sympathetic to black people.
The former, centered on the Chicago Daily Times, argued the importance of high-quality immigrants. Albert wrote in a very angry tone in the newspaper, "The Immigration Law Amendment does not pose a threat to some other ethnic groups at all. It is just that immigration restrictions will be imposed on some areas in the future. This time, the violence against the police is intolerable, and I will not be surprised by any consequences."
The New York Daily News was the source of the ban on the march, and believed that the mayor of New York was negligent in his decision this time. He should not have allowed the dangerous march to happen, and for a time, the mayor of New York, Smith Miller, was at the center of the storm.
"It was the political purposes of some politicians that caused this tragedy and cost the lives of innocent police officers." With Sheffield's special attention, he added a leading sentence: some Republicans have lost their minds.
The slave owner was very busy and was still paying attention to the progress of the two wars in Europe. In his eyes, after the two wars were over, it would be almost his ideal state and he could just wait for the outbreak of the world war. Anyway, Sheffield was the son-in-law of the French, the friend of the Germans, the confidant of Rasputin, and the Pasha of the Ottoman Empire. He would help all those he should help to win at that time. This was what he should do for the wonderful hegemony after the world war.
Although the Balkan War broke out later, it progressed very quickly. The Balkan Alliance had been preparing for this war for a long time. On the contrary, the Ottoman Empire mobilized very slowly. Theoretically, its mobilization scale was similar to that of its opponent, but half of its troops were still in Asia and had not yet reached the battlefield.
On the contrary, the North African battlefield has ended, and the United Company is currently secretly negotiating with the French on the issue of takeover. As long as the French take that step bravely, the entire North Africa except Egypt will belong to the French.
The slave owner even acted as a go-between and persuaded Nicholas II through Rasputin. This time, Rasputin changed his previous attitude of pretending to be a charlatan and showed rare calmness and wisdom, but of course, this was all pretended.
In front of Nicholas II and the upper echelons of the Russian Empire, he showed a rare foresight. The Russian Empire was not tripped up once or twice because of the problem of moving south. Whenever it was about to achieve its goal, it would encounter huge resistance. Most of the time, this resistance came from the British, and sometimes from the French.
Now Britain, France and Russia are all in the Allied camp. Instead of contradictions, they complement each other. France swallowed up the land that the Italians risked their lives to seize, and was wary of the British. The Russian Empire also felt that the British might interfere based on historical memories, and the Franco-Russian alliance, the core of the Allied Powers, hit it off on this matter.
Nicholas II was very happy to adopt Rasputin's suggestion and took the initiative to contact Paris, hoping that while he was taking action, France could provide support in North Africa. The common explanation for the British was to complete the encirclement of the Allied camp and curb the growing ambitions of the German Empire.
For the French radicals now in power, the news conveyed by the Russian Empire is exactly what Paris needs.
Philippe, who had become an important member of the French cabinet, vigorously promoted this matter in the cabinet, believing that this would help the Allies to completely encircle the Central Powers. They could do it first and give the British a reasonable explanation when they succeeded. Facing the doubts of other cabinet members, Philippe explained, "If the British did not feel the threat from Germany, they would not put down their airs and ally with us. They have already allied, which means that in the eyes of the British, the Germans are still a greater threat."
For now, these are the two recent wars that the European imperialist powers are concerned about, and the current progress. The Central Powers seem to be surrounded by the Allies, but in fact their power is very concentrated.
This situation is actually very similar to an example from later times, which is the confrontation between the two major factions of the Peace Church in the Middle East. In theory, Sunnis account for 90% of the world's Peace Church members, while Shiites only account for 10% of the population.
The first impression people get when they know this number is that the Sunnis should easily crush the Shiites. Common sense should be like this, where is the population of Sunnis? Turkey, which has always wanted to restore the glory of the Ottoman Empire, has nearly 100 million people. Arabs certainly don't trust the Persians, but they don't have a good impression of these former rulers.
There are nearly 300 million Indian Christians, nearly 200 million Pakistanis, nearly 200 million Bangladeshis, and more than 200 million Indonesians! The Sunni Arabs in the Middle East have no advantage over the Shiites. Only when the Arab countries in North Africa are included do they have a slight population advantage.
The forces that the Arabs in the Middle East can mobilize are too far away, and the Shiite countries are very concentrated in terms of territory. The situation is very similar to the current confrontation between the Allies and the Entente. It seems that the Entente has a stronger advantage than the Allies, but in fact the advantage is not as big as it looks on the map, it is probably like a poached egg.
"Why do you always make trouble for the Republicans?" Before Alice Roosevelt came up angrily, Sheffield hurriedly put away the telegrams.
Sheffield breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Alice Roosevelt push the door open. "I thought the FBI was here."
"Don't fool me. Didn't you say that the director of the FBI is your henchman?" Alice Roosevelt curled her lips, but didn't find anything unusual. She changed the subject and asked, "Why is your newspaper targeting the Republicans?"
"That's a good question. It shows that the Republicans are the ones who have a problem. Besides!" Sheffield put his hands on his waist and said righteously, "The Republicans didn't let us off the hook back then. Do you know how many Southerners fled to Brazil? I'm a member of an 18-member Democratic committee, and I don't have the final say. If it's because of the so-called Republican progressives, Alice, you're not a politician. Look at the sky outside, and you'll find that this is a matter that can't be any smaller. Most people are too busy to care about it."
"The Republicans are determined to fight the Democrats over the immigration issue, and they will definitely fail. This will not change because of your father's high prestige. Although most citizens are not smart, they can make choices based on their instincts." Sheffield pulled Alice Roosevelt into his arms and said softly, "I am right, and you should stand on my side."
One hundred years later, the white citizens of the United States still don't buy into the political correctness. They would rather see a real estate businessman who doesn't look so noble take office than to get these bastards who claim to be the global elite out of office. Most Republican supporters already believe that the global elites are no longer citizens of the United States.
In order to achieve their goals, they can give legal status to all illegal immigrants, even if it means changing the racial structure of the United States forever. As for the rednecks, they are a group destined to be sacrificed.
If an ordinary person in Sheffield also supports real estate businessmen, what does global hegemony have to do with me? In order to fight against the Republic, we should open our arms to all other countries. And we should give identity to tens of millions of illegal immigrants? The declining United States is our own country after all, and the great United States has become someone else's country. How can this be possible?
"You stay with me these days. There may be danger outside. I'll call Washington first." Sheffield said softly, and he felt relieved when he saw Alice Roosevelt nod.
The slave owner is now carefully managing the time, hoping that all parties will work together to quickly cut the Gordian knot and make a solid case. Necessary micro-management is indispensable, ethnic conflicts are then suppressed by the prepared police, and the FBI takes action at the same time.
Sheffield was not very familiar with the Governor of New York State. He only knew that the governor had a decent relationship with Alton Parker, so he asked Konstantinovich what the state government thought.
A volcano needs to be suppressed for a period of time before it erupts more violently.
