"I'm not guilty. It was the foreigners who made me do it..."
Boss Lin, who was dragged out, cried loudly.
"We are living under someone else's roof. We have no choice but to listen to the foreigners. It's all because of the foreigners who forced us to do that..."
How rampant Boss Lin was in the past, how pitiful he is now. Now he is like a poor creature, kneeling there begging bitterly.
"You shouldn't betray your compatriots, let alone kill your compatriots!"
Shi Siming raised his Type 27 semi-automatic pistol, the latest model with a magazine that could hold eight rounds, and fired at Lin's head. His head exploded, and his brains and blood were scattered all over the floor.
He fell down, looking at the sky in despair.
"No one can betray his fellow countrymen! Anyone who betrays his fellow countrymen must die."
He reiterated, and then he did not put the pistol back into the holster, but walked behind the thugs and shot them one by one, and then he changed the magazine...
After everything was over, he put the pistol back into the holster, walked around the dead bodies on the ground, came to the other survivors, and comforted them that everything would be fine.
Yes, everything will be fine.
This war, which lasted for nearly two years, changed the fate of many countries. The United States, once the world's second most powerful country, came to its end in a series of signatures. Although it was reluctant to admit it, just after New Year's Day, President Cleveland, as the last president of the United States, delivered a speech.
On the one hand, he admitted the failure of the war and said that he would do his utmost to strive for peace. On the other hand, he had to face the division of the United States and said that this was inevitable for peace.
What is the so-called peace?
It means going to the negotiating table to negotiate. What kind of negotiations will they be?
It’s certainly a winner’s carnival!
The United States was the first country to withdraw from the war, not because they wanted to, but because they had to.
On February 13, the 28th year of Shengde, the United States and Ming signed an armistice treaty in Havana. This treaty was of no consequence to the United States. The United States would pay 3 billion U.S. dollars in war reparations. Of course, with the disintegration of the United States, this reparations would be postponed indefinitely, and the current ceasefire line would be used as the re-demarcated area of the border between the two countries.
With all this being said, what is the most important clause in the treaty?
It legally prohibits the possibility of the reunification of the United States.
"Whether any independent country in North America unifies through any means, it must bear all war reparations..."
In the Forbidden City in Zhongdu, Emperor Zhu seemed a little distracted and even dazed as he listened to the report.
Is America divided like this?
Even until now, Emperor Zhu is still a little unsure, because all this is so incredible. His purpose in intervening in the Civil War was to divide the United States, but the result was a little unsatisfactory - the United States is still very powerful.
This is why this war is being fought, and now what?
The United States announced his end in an unexpected way.
"You know what? I almost never thought that one day, the United States would end their fate in this way."
After saying this, Emperor Zhu waved his hand, signaling everyone to leave. Then he stayed alone in the study, thought for a long time, then walked to the window, and stared towards the north with an extremely solemn expression.
"Perhaps, this is the greatest gain I have gained since coming to this world!"
When saying this, Emperor Zhu's tone seemed very calm. He didn't know how outsiders in another world felt when they learned about the disintegration of the Soviet Union, but now, at this moment, Emperor Zhu's mood was not excited, and seemed very calm.
Why is this so?
Because... it's really incredible, and even makes people doubt its authenticity.
Once upon a time, although Emperor Zhu faced threats from Britain from the day the country was founded, because from that period until now, Britain has ruled the world, including South America, which is also under British control.
The UK is an unavoidable problem.
But deep down, Emperor Zhu knew very well that that country was the real enemy of the Ming Empire in the future. Britain might be strong, but its strength was nothing compared to that of the United States.
The population, land, and resources of the United States are beyond the reach of many countries, which is the fundamental reason why it is destined to rise. For this reason, how to defeat this powerful enemy has become a problem that Emperor Zhu has to consider.
From supporting the South in the Civil War to promoting the division of the United States, to this war, the United States is regarded as the first enemy, and even postponed the battle in other regions in order to concentrate on defeating the United States.
The essence is that the United States is the real mortal enemy.
And now, this enemy suddenly disappeared!
In an extremely dramatic way, it split into dozens of countries overnight.
"It is not enough to just split up. The next step is to fragment and Europeanize the United States..."
Thinking this in his mind, Emperor Zhu seemed to have thought of something. He walked to the desk and took out a document. The content of the document was very simple. It was a data on the population composition of each state in the United States.
"Well, although there are many British immigrants in these eastern states, there are also many German immigrants. Maybe we can send someone to help them. There are also many Polish and Italian immigrants in the central states. Let's start with the language and help the local European immigrants maintain their interests. Little Poland, Little Portugal, Little Italy..."
Muttering this in his mind, Emperor Zhu said again.
"It seems that we still need to keep the troops stationed in Washington."
Stationing troops in Washington - it was not just stationing troops, but ceding territory. The division of the United States did not mean that they had nothing. Washington, DC was still federal land, and naturally it was ceded to the Ming Dynasty.
In fact, the Ming Dynasty did not gain much in this war - it only got the western coastal states, a small amount of northwestern land, and Washington, D.C.
Why increase the garrison? Because the states' declaration of independence renounced standing armies as part of the peace treaty, and the empire offered them a security promise, in other words, the empire would take responsibility for protecting them.
"Even though they only ceded over a million square kilometers, the United States has already disappeared from this world!"
Yes, America has disappeared, and from now on, there is no America anymore in this world...
Gazing towards the north, Emperor Zhu raised the corners of his lips slightly, and then muttered to himself.
"What would a world without America be like..."
