Chapter 4： Infiltrate America

In the U.S., especially with regard to land development in the west, the north demands that the west develop capital industrialism and limit or abolish the expansion of slavery.

However, the slave owners in the south tried to fight back against the north in the west and even try to develop the slave system across the country. The two sides have led to many armed conflicts in the past ten years. Raised a wave.

The North established the Republic in 1854. The purpose of the party was to abolish the black slave system. It mainly represented the capital class and the interest groups that benefited from the Industrial Revolution.

In the same year, the slave owners tried to expand the slave system to Kansas, so in Kansas, a struggle against slave armed forces from the free state broke out, which opened the prelude to the beginning of the north-south struggle.

In 1860, Lincoln, a strong republican who advocated the abolition of slavery, was elected president.

Seeing this, the unwilling southern slave owners collectively launched a pan-riot, and the southern part made a lot of duli. The seven southern states withdrew from the Confederation of the United States of America and formed an alliance of American states in February last year, with Richmond as their capital and Davis as president. In the same year, the Confederate army preemptively attacked the northern fortress of Sam, and nezhan finally broke out.

A series of developments stunned European countries.

Although Tolbeck was worried about how to prepare for the re-election of the Dutch Prime Minister with the liberals at that time, it did not prevent him from paying attention to what was going on in the United States.

He looked at William IV in confusion, not understanding why he said that.

William IV suddenly said: "Lincoln has my eyes and ears beside me"

Um! It is normal to have eyes and ears in the United States.

No, William IV was talking about Lincoln, the current president of the United States, Lincoln!

Is there His Majesty's hidden chess piece beside the now-prosperous U.S. President Lincoln?

what!

Tolbeck stared at William IV in a stunned manner, a frenzy in his heart.

The penetration power of the Netherlands has reached the side of the US president?

Judging from the situation, William IV's chess piece should have a high status. Otherwise, William IV would not have said it so solemnly.

There is no news from the cabinet government intelligence agency, so it can only be deployed by the Royal Dutch Royal Intelligence Service. Therefore, Tolbek was inexplicably shocked!

William II proudly uttered a name: "Elihue B. Washburn"

It turned out to be him!

Chairman of the U.S. Congressional Trade Committee and Appropriations Committee!

If only this position was not enough to make Tolbek so surprised, to his surprise, this person is still the Bole of Major General Grant who is now doing amazing in the Civil War. It was Washburn who recommended Grant to Lincoln, Grant It was only after Lincoln's attention that he had the opportunity to be on the front line of the battlefield.

In fact, William IV should be proud.

In the U.S. Congress, Washburn is known for his serious and rigorous work attitude, especially in the development of land.

Even many U.S. media have reported his deeds. For example, some activist groups outside Congress have repeatedly threatened and lured him, but they have failed.

It was under the media's recommendation that his prestige gradually increased. During the election of the chairman of the trade committee and the appropriation committee, he was elected with high votes, and no one objected.

His reputation has benefited him a lot. He is responsible for the two major tasks of trade and appropriation. Facts have proved that it is very correct for people to hand over power to him. He can act impartially in front of the American people and take various measures to prevent the abuse of public funds. It has effectively addressed the intrusion of activist groups outside Congress, and is known as the "blocker of treasury disruptors" in the United States.

And long before the outbreak of the Civil War, Washburn became a republican established in 1854. In the 1860 election, he was favored by Lincoln in the name of a member of Congress. He was appointed as a general election consultant to advise Lincoln and resolutely. Resist any plans to expand slavery and split the federation.

In 1861, when President-elect Lincoln rushed to Washington to take office, he escaped a dark conspiracy because of Washburn's reminder, and later he was favored by Lincoln.

And it was because of his recommendation that Ulysses Simpson Grant, who was now fighting in the South, became a star in the Northern Army and was directly promoted to major general by President Lincoln.

Such a character turned out to be the hidden **** of William IV. What an important move. Such a character, he does not believe that a small Congressional Trade Committee and the chairman of the Appropriations Committee can satisfy him, even if he does not want to, William IV The world does not agree.

Then, in the future, is it the US Speaker of the Congress, or the US Secretary of State, or the US President...

Tolbeck thought that if William IV's secret chess became the president of the United States, then for the Netherlands, it would be profitable. I believe that no one would have thought that the President of the United States was just a secret chess game of the King of the Netherlands. Think about it, as the Prime Minister of the Netherlands. He felt incredible, and his body and mind couldn't stop shaking.

His eyes couldn't help but face the ground, not daring to meet William IV's gaze.

William IV was extremely satisfied. What he wanted was this result, which is why he told him about his secret chess game in the United States. As the Prime Minister of the Netherlands who will work with him for many years in the future, not to mention strategizing , at least you have to know the weapons in your hand to be able to play a powerful card against Zhou Xuan of various countries, or else how to compete with other big countries with the strength of the Netherlands.

This is William's disguised encouragement to him. Because of his secret support, Washburn believes that in the future, he will not just become his secretary of state during President Grant's state, but a change that will shock everyone.

Among them, William IV has decided to push him to the sky, and he will not let go of the presidential throne. In order to let the Netherlands benefit from the huge economy of the United States for a long time, he will **** blood from it to supplement the weak body of the Netherlands. After the improvement of India and the Pacific and Indian Ocean regions is completed, the Netherlands will no longer fear anyone and will no longer need such covert operations.

Therefore, Washburn will establish his own faction in the republic, and he is doing the same now.

Following his progress, the Netherlands will have a strong pro-Dutch force in America. By then, the cooperation between the Netherlands and America will become clear and public.

After a long time, it took a long time to digest the shocking information brought by William IV, and his ambition was also aroused. If he used to be content with second-class prime ministers to make decisions, now he feels full of fighting spirit, even He raised his opponents to British Prime Minister Henry John Tapper, Prussian Bimarck, Austrian Archduke Renner Ferdinand and US Secretary of State William Henry Seward and Napoleon III, etc. He found his vision much wider.

He took a deep breath, looked at William IV with admiration, and said sincerely: "Your Majesty, it seems that the Kingdom of the Netherlands will shock the world soon."

"I hope that day will come soon, and of course I will rely on everyone to help me."

Ha ha ha ha!

"But before that, Europe should be more lively."

Taking over William IV's plan, Tolbeck's heart trembled, and he said knowingly and excitedly, "Your Majesty is wise, Europe is really too quiet right now."

......

South on the opposite bank of North Hai, England, London.

The afterglow of the setting sun is glowing with a golden sheen, and through the huge floor-to-ceiling glass windows, the whole room is illuminated brightly and brilliantly.

At this moment, at Buckingham Palace, a young man in his 20s is lying on a hospital bed. In a coma, his handsome face was pale.

Outside the hospital bed, sat a mature woman with a solemn expression.

It doesn't seem to have a trace of emotion, but her beautiful eyes flicker occasionally, and you can clearly feel the anxiety contained in it, even with deep anger!

It's just that this acquaintance seems to be accustomed to being in a high position, and her happiness and anger are invisible. It's just that anyone who is familiar with her will know that she is the tranquility before the storm, and she is extremely angry!

Once this suppressed emotion erupts, it will definitely be a storm that can send waves across Europe.

"What's going on?" Slightly inhaled, suppressing the anger that she wanted to explode at any time in her heart, the familiar and beautiful woman didn't even raise her head, and asked indifferently, but those quiet eyes never left. The pale face of his son, Prince Edward!

A hint of distress flashed, and in the depths of those seemingly calm eyes, after all, a trace of burning flames could not be restrained. This fire hit her Gu Bo's mind that had been calm for so many years, except for her husband last month. When his cousin, Prince Albert, died.

Following the questioning of this graceful and elegant acquaintance, behind her, a 20-year-old woman with a soft temperament and a beautiful face was slightly tense. Stunning woman, but at this moment, this stunning woman flashed a trace of fear in the face of this acquaintance's inquiry!

As the personal person of this high-ranking woman and her eldest daughter, this charming woman knows the temperament and methods of this familiar woman better than anyone else. Every time she is so calm, it means that she has a monstrous brewing in her heart. Anger, as long as it erupts, is enough to destroy everything that stands in front of this anger, including people and countries. Among them, she recently remembered that a small kingdom in the Indian subcontinent was wiped out overnight, leaving no human or animal. The reason is that the other party should never have to, but he chose to rebel on Prince Albert's birthday. UU reading

In her heart, she silently mourned for those who provoked this noble woman. During the silent mourning, she casually looked at Prince Edward on the hospital bed, and a very complicated look flashed in her eyes. She knew better than anyone that this young man was in the midst of his familiarity. The status in the woman's heart is so dissatisfied, but with the request of Prince Albert before his death not to abolish the position of Prince Edward, the status has now undergone this earth-shaking change. This young man's position in the illness of the acquaintance may have taken his place, but it's all doting!

It can be said that if you provoke the acquaintance in front of you, she may not care about you, but if you provoke her husband's substitute - Prince Edward, then you are dead. This prince is now completely this lady The untouchable anti-scale in her heart, once touched, she will stab in an instant, piercing the hearts of all who dare to provoke this anti-scale, destroying the family and destroying the country...!

Taking a deep breath, the stunning woman put aside all distracting thoughts, and said softly without daring to breathe: The news that just came back shows that Edward was entangled with a woman, jealous of others, and was arrested on London Bridge. After being beaten violently, I fell into a coma."

Hearing this, the acquaintance was stunned for a moment, her eyes flashed with surprise, then her beautiful and dignified brows were slightly wrinkled, and she said, "It's just an accident?"

"Mother, according to the assassin's confession, some people were dissatisfied with Edward and the Danish Princess Alexandra's preparation for a blind date, so

woman? Denmark? Princess? Edward? Rival?

Thousands of thoughts flew through Queen Victoria's mind, and her eyes were full of color.

At the same time, he said kindly to the third child and the second daughter: "Alice, do you have someone you like?"
