Journey Through the Plane of the Lord God

January 15, 1858 AD.

New World, western United States of America, Mandragong City, the capital city of Crocas State.

The decorations for Saint Child's Day had just been cleaned up, and the State Assembly Hall, the largest building in the city, was brightly lit.

The cool sunshine shines on the earth, and countless mighty Crocas State National Guard soldiers guard every corner of the city.

On this day, except for some essential workers of public facilities in Mandragong City, all white citizens were given an early leave, either at home or in community gathering places, listening to the sound on the radio.

"Everyone!"

Following the words of the Speaker of the State Assembly, the voice spread along the microphone throughout the huge State Assembly Hall.

"Our distinguished President Jefferson Davis please speak!"

Suddenly, extremely warm applause erupted in the Congress Hall. States from all over the South that supported slave owners sent their plenipotentiaries to participate in this great moment.

And all the sounds in the parliament hall were broadcast in real time through the broadcast in Mandragong City, throughout the entire Crocas State, the entire 16 southern states, and the entire area covered by the broadcast in the United States of America.

"...They asked us to free the slaves, not caring that our people might lose their jobs."

"...They let us buy goods, but they tried their best to lower the prices of cotton and agricultural products."

Jefferson Davis, the old enemy of Lincoln, the current president of the United States, and the arrogant white leader of the Whig Party, stood in the middle of the Congress Hall and gave an impassioned speech.

In the eloquent and exquisite speech of a thousand words, he recounted the dark history of countless northern United States and talked about the unfair grievances suffered by his own allies.

"Hard-working, brave white people!"

"We will have a future, a future full of power, beauty, and expression!"

“Therefore, in accordance with America’s supreme constitution, we, the Crocas States, the Texas States, the Rockefeller States, the Lewis States... declare our voluntary secession from the United States and legally establish the Confederate States of America.

"

At the end, Jefferson Davis stood up straight, put down his speech with his left hand, clenched his fist with his right hand and waved it vigorously into the air, shouting loudly.

"Let's unite!"

"The alliance is in line with common sense, and the Holy Lord defends us!"

Especially the last slogan, with Jefferson Davis clenching his fists and waving his body movements, instantly ignited the atmosphere in the entire parliament hall.

Representatives from various southern states stood up excitedly and shouted in unison.

"The alliance is in line with common sense, and the Holy Lord defends us!"

At the same time, most of the people in the South, who have been brainwashed by the radio, newspapers and media under the patronage of large farmers and slave owners in recent years, also looked excited and shouted with the same excitement at this moment.

"Long live independence, the Holy Lord defends us!"

They shouted with incomparable fanaticism, especially in the city of Mandragong, which has been confirmed as the capital of the American Confederacy.

The excited shouts of the white citizens actually formed a deafening wave of sound, which passed through the walls of the parliament hall and entered the real-time broadcast...

On the other side, it was even more lively than the past Saint Child's Day, compared to Mandragong City, the capital of the Alliance.

In Washington, the capital of the United States of America, the atmosphere in the White Room conference room of the Presidential Palace was one of silence.

The dignitaries of the sixteenth government of the United States gathered around their president, Abraham Lincoln, sitting at the table and listening to the announcement of the founding of the Confederacy.

"Listen to these cheers!"

"Is the government of the United States so unpopular?"

Abraham Lincoln put down the pipe in his mouth, took a puff of smoke, and said somewhat self-deprecatingly.

His wife Maria walked in from the meeting room with a plate of black tea, placed a cup of tea in front of each Democratic Party member present, and then sat next to Lincoln and looked at him worriedly.

"Your Excellency, these people were just deceived by those southerners!"

Before the top leaders of the Democratic Party spoke, Charlie, a tall, thin and old-fashioned middle-aged man who represented the United States Justice, spoke first.

"According to our supreme constitution, any person who has lived in the United States for more than ten years and meets... can become a legal American citizen. Most slaves in the southern states met this condition."

"The Pseudo-Confederate States have not received the support of this group of people at all. Their independence is illegal, invalid, and evil!"

"The Lord Chancellor has authorized me to explain this fact to the public."

The judicial system of the United States of America has been known for its political neutrality in the past hundreds of years. However, this time it is an extremely rare exception to explicitly support the Lincoln administration, which has expressed the importance of the establishment of the Confederate States to the United States of America.

How serious the crisis is.

"That's right, Your Excellency, President!"

"The Confederates are illegal!"

"Those slaves are also human beings, and freedom and equality are guiltless!"

Next, Democratic Party officials criticized the Confederacy, which made Lincoln look much better.

"Your Excellency, gentlemen."

Finally, it was General Ulysses S. Grant, the tallest Army Lieutenant General in the country who had the highest military rank, who made the final decision.

"Didn't we already expect this situation at this moment?"

"Human civilization has advanced to this day, and slavery has been recognized as evil and must be eradicated by justice!"

"And we are not without supporters!"

He stood up, walked to the window of the White House conference room without hesitation, and opened the window.

In an instant, waves of calls that seemed to be louder than those of the Southerners on the radio came from the outside world.

"Destroy those southern traitors!"

"Your Excellency, please eliminate the evil slavery!"

"We support you, Lincoln!"

······

After the Confederacy declared independence, countless Washington citizens walked out of their homes and factories.

There were old people, women, and young people among them. They all came to the Civic Square outside the White House of the Presidential Palace. They shouted the name of their president Lincoln passionately and held up their hands to support the elimination of the southern rebels.

of banners.

These vivid scenes deeply shocked Abraham Lincoln, and he felt that unparalleled courage emerged from his chest again.

Yes, freeing slaves and abolishing slavery is extremely right and just!

In the two months after he ascended the throne of the presidency, President Lincoln, who had forced himself not to speak out on "abolition of slavery" in order to ensure harmony between the North and the South, once again strengthened his original belief.

Since those southerners want war, then I'll give you a war!

"William, go and bring out the first draft of the Emancipation Proclamation we drafted last time."

Lincoln cheered up and first gave an order to Secretary of State William Seward, who was on his left.

Then, he asked his wife Maria next to him to straighten his collar, turned around and said to everyone.

"Let's go to the Civic Square together!"

"It's time to officially declare war on those Southerners and the evil slavery!"

————————————————————————

On January 15, 1858, the 16 southern states of America became independent and established the Confederate States of America.

At 13:00 noon that day, Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States of America, declared the independence of the Confederate States as an illegal rebellion at the Civic Plaza in Washington, D.C., and launched a counterinsurgency war against the 16 southern states.

"The opportunity we have been waiting for a long time has arrived."

In the Taiping Fortress Center, which is close to the border of Rockefeller State, in the large conference room of the main building, a group of senior Taiping members, led by six Taiping rulers, reported to Hong Tiangui, who was at the center.

"President, starting today, our neighbor next to us, the United States of America, has a population of 60 million."

"The state of civil war has been officially declared!"

Wu Tunan's words made Hong Tiangui calmly nodded and warned the comrades around him.

"Well, since they have already started fighting, we must seize this opportunity!"

"We must start the next step at the critical moment..."

Before Hong Tiangui could finish speaking, the door to the conference room suddenly opened.

Among the many senior officials of the Taiping Association, the only one who was not in the meeting room was Interior Minister Li Gu. He walked in with a relaxed expression, went directly to Hong Tiangui and whispered something in his ear.

Immediately, Hong Tiangui stood up and said to Chief Consul Hu Weimin, who was the first among the six Taiping governors and was responsible for temporarily controlling the overall situation when Hong Tiangui was away for business.

"There has been new progress on the 'Jiayi' side."

"You will continue to preside over the next meeting."

After seeing Chief Hu Weimin nod in agreement, Hong Tiangui and Li Gu immediately set off and walked together to the secret prison of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

The "A-1" in his mouth is the code name of the information related to the "America Territory Railway Alchemy Map". It is the most important matter that Hong Tiangui is currently concerned about...
