Rebirth of the Spanish Empire
Chapter 13 America Promotes Democracy
Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar face in front of him, Alfonso felt that natural emotion in his heart reappeared. It was the first Chinese face he saw when he was a child, the first Chinese person he spoke to and chatted with. He is the most devoted person besides his relatives and the least defensive person. It can be said that this person is his confidant in his life. Although this person is much older than him, he still feels the other person's loyalty to him. , and there is an unexplained and endless friendship.
Alfonso is like this, and Yan Shun is like this too! From the first time they met, he was like a lucky woman who came and blessed him with luck. From then on, he embarked on the road to prosperity. Taking one step up and two steps up, with the support of His Majesty the King, he has reached where he is today. He has become an alternative in the Spanish Empire. A Chinese became so prosperous in Spain that even the whole of Europe knew his name. Yan Shun, a Chinese, is the current governor of the Spanish Empire in Eastern Oceania.
"Your Majesty, long time no see." After waiting for a long time, Yan Shun discovered that His Majesty, the King who was a child ten years ago, was even speaking incoherently. Was he under pressure from the King? No. He just felt that he had an urge to express his pain when he suddenly saw his relatives after finally completing his mission and wanted to express his pain when he encountered difficulties over the years.
Alfonso was very moved when he saw him like this. After ten years of training, this hot-blooded man no longer looked like he was talking in this room when he faced off against Antonio and Palacides, the two giants of the empire. Now He is a little more stable, but more importantly, he is now facing the emotion of seeing his relatives, which makes him feel very satisfied.
"Tell me, how have you been living there these past years?"
Yan Shun also put away that emotion, quickly adjusted his state, and said: "Fortunately, the seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter over there are exactly opposite to here, and the temperature is not too high compared to here. King You should be able to go over there and meet your people, they miss you."
Alfonso suddenly became interested. Of course, he would not have any dissatisfaction with Yan Shun's suggestion. If someone else had said it, he might have suspected that they were controlling his schedule or even giving orders. But he knew that his confidant definitely didn't mean that, but what did his words mean?
Of course Yan Shun saw Alfonso's doubts, and secretly praised the other person's intelligence, saying: "There are always people in the United States showing kindness recently, and saying how beautiful and fair the United States is and how democratic it is, so During that time, people's hearts were a little unstable, and we were a little worried at first. Later, we conducted a secret investigation and found that the shadow of the American government was involved, but fortunately, we have powerful weapons to deal with them."
"Oh?" When he heard the previous words, Alfonso's heart suddenly thought, America? Still democratic? Aren’t these the figures in later generations who specialize in instigating conflicts in various countries? Well, America, democracy has come to the land of our Spanish Empire. It seems that you have really fattened our Spanish Empire. Theodore Roosevelt, it seems that you, this old guy, have inherited the legacy of your predecessor, the democratic lunatic. Alfonso couldn't help but not be angry. He had been fighting hard for more than ten years for the Spanish Empire to become a fading thing from the beginning of his life. He had just solved the problems such as the Philippines and Cuba, and even moved people and ships. I want to get out of sight of you in the United States, but why did you, old guy, run out again? Do you really want to hold on to us? Are we so easy to bully?
I can't help but Alfonso is not angry, why? Of course, after all his hard work over the years, he thought that the United States would give up its provocation against Spain and change its target. After all, it’s not like there are no countries smaller than them, such as Belgium, even Portugal and the Netherlands. The Netherlands is the direct occupier of Indonesia in future generations. But they still stared at them without thinking. Isn't this bullying the Spanish Empire? ….
"Sharp weapon? What sharp weapon?" Although Alfonso was a little angry at America's actions, he was still not angry. I am interested in what the sharp weapon Yan Shun mentioned.
Yan Shun didn't know what Alfonso was thinking, and even if he knew, he would have no choice but to do so. Alfonso showed interest in front of the scissors, and he also said with interest: "Newspapers are mass-produced newspapers. We print a large number of reports about the United States, such as "Australia Daily" and "Pas Daily", especially It is about all kinds of negative news in their country, among which the former president even asked several major newspapers to write legendary stories and carry out necessary reports every day to let people understand the darkness in his country."
William McKinley? Alfonso's heart moved, and he looked at Yan Shun with direct admiration. Not to mention, using him to make newspapers is really not a good idea in Western Australia and other places. It’s really not like this guy has many fans in the United States, the United Kingdom and other places, because he is the one who made the United States stronger, especially in the past few years when the United States was still suffering from the economic crisis, but it was he who led the United States. out. But that's not what I want to say. What the Spaniards hate most about him is naturally that the Philippines, Cuba and other places exchanged kings because of him. Although the United States and Spanish governments have not admitted or denied it in recent years, there are still rumors among the people. Information, of course, this is due to Alfonso’s intentional reasons, but it also includes people in the United States. As a cooperative country, a multi-ethnic country, the United States’ people’s hearts are not always united. Some people still Those who like theater, especially those who are hostile to Spain or the United States, can use it to damage relations between the United States and Spain.
In fact, he did it. Over the years, the Spanish people have always had great doubts about this matter, so they always view the United States with a colored eye emotionally, and the relationship between the two countries is not as good as that of other countries. So friendly. Of course, it's not the kind where they have no contact with each other or even break up the relationship. This is Spain, but there is one country where people hate him even more.
Just look at his American exploits.
It launched the American-Spanish War, invaded Cuba and the Philippines, and helped the Filipinos become independent after promising to drive away Spain, but in the end they suppressed the local uprising in the Philippines. These are all things from the past life.
What also happened was that he implemented the open door policy towards China, joined the Eight-Nation Allied Forces to invade China, and brutally suppressed China's Boxer Rebellion. Under his leadership, the United States began a civil war that turned into a large-scale expansion movement, and officially entered the period of imperialism. As for the economy, the United States entered unprecedented prosperity due to the use of the gold standard. Of course, the most important thing is that he also discriminated against the Chinese, perhaps influenced by his former leader, the 19th President of the United States, President Hayes, because in 1879, Hayes was the first to receive The president was an official of the Qing government stationed in the United States. The Qing government at that time was extremely happy, but unexpectedly, the reason for Hayes' meeting was to request the revision of the previous treaty "Flanchen Treaty", which was established by the two countries. Friendly relations, the United States gives China most-favored-nation treatment, and it is a treaty established in the form of Western international law to establish reciprocal treatment.
The content of the treaty is that the Chinese emperor will not give up the "right of eminent domain" in the areas that China has given up to foreigners to live in; the Chinese emperor has the right to station consuls in American ports, and his consular privileges and immunities are the same as those of the British and Russian consuls in the United States; the two countries Citizens are protected from religious persecution in each other's territory; the two governments respect freedom of immigration; citizens of both countries can study in the other's government public schools and enjoy most-favored-nation national treatment, and citizens of both countries can set up schools in each other's territory; the U.S. government has no right to It has no intention to interfere in the management of China's internal affairs. Construction projects such as railways and telegraphs are "always handled by the Chinese emperor at his own discretion." If the Chinese government decides to launch such projects and hopes to use Western technology, the U.S. government will designate engineers to be hired by the Chinese government. . ….
In 1879, the U.S. Congress passed this bill, which stipulated that any immigrant ship should not carry more than 15 Chinese workers at a time. However, U.S. President Hayes vetoed this proposal. Why, of course, it was not for the sake of the Chinese. Rather, he believed that this would damage U.S. interests in China. Perhaps as a double act, he sent someone to come forward and eventually negotiated with the Qing government. In 1880, it was finally confirmed that the U.S. government had the right to restrict and prohibit Chinese workers from entering the United States.
Hayes was William McKinley's closest direct leader when he was in the Navy. William was also influenced by him. During his tenure, he even implemented the Chinese Exclusion Bill to ban Chinese from coming to the United States. Fortunately, perhaps because of China's exclusive Sanqingdao On that day, September 6, 1901, he began to become a person that Americans will always remember. As for why, because just look at the people killed by assassinations of presidents in the United States, his name is on them, and he is among the top three. He died less than a year after being re-elected. Is it a pity or a relief? In short, Alfonso is the latter, and I believe that many Chinese people are also the same. At least those Chinese in Western Australia, New Zealand and other places should think so.
As for the current Theodore Roosevelt, he actually came to participate. This guy was the one who agreed to change the time limit into an unlimited one in the Chinese Exclusion Bill in 1902. He was the one who directly advised William McLaren to draft the Spanish-American War. Jin Lai made up his mind. It can be said that this guy is at least a mastermind. Alfonso has a feeling towards him that others don't know why. Because, although this guy is known as the greatest president of the United States, this is not the most memorable one, because he has a greater one. Nephew, a man who served four consecutive terms as President of the United States, led the United States out of the Great Depression, made the United States its savior during World War II, and made the United States truly the most powerful country in the world - Franklin Roosevelt. With the existence of such a future overlord-level figure, Alfonso must think twice even if he wants to deal with him. "
No nonsense today. My friends worked hard yesterday. The number of collections increased by 85 from 249 in the morning the night before last to 334 at 24:00 last night. This shows that everyone's efforts are really good. I would like to continue updating and give more recommendation votes.
