Although on the surface, the Bahamas Company and the Steed Group have no affiliation, as long as comprehensive personnel, funding, and company structure are considered, it is not difficult to analyze the relationship between Li Mu and the Bahamas Company. After all, as far as the world is concerned, Just as the Junma Group dares to play cross-border in this way, it is obvious that if there is no large company behind it, it is not easy to establish a company with a strong military background like the Bahamas company, even the US government is not easy to do it.

This is not an exaggeration of facts. In fact, companies have greater freedom than the government. In terms of capital allocation, companies have a clear advantage over the government. For example, the Bahamas company, Mike Zhang only needs to be responsible to Li Mu himself, even in the Bahamas. The company's operating conditions are not satisfactory, but as long as Li Mu believes that the vision can be expected, then Mike Zhang is safe and sound, and the government is not the same. For example, Hays, although expensive as the President of the United States, must be accountable to Congress. He thought that Hayes' job was unqualified, and even if Hayes said the sky was falling, Hayes could not escape the fate of stepping down.

This is the best and the worst. Capital has a near-invincible charm. Even a country must retreat in the face of absolute capital advantages. For example, the current Haitian government, even if it knows that the Bahamas company has nothing to do, but Still have to do everything possible to entrust John to humiliation and peace with Li Mu.

Perhaps this is indeed a humiliation for President Pierre, but the point is that Li Mu may not necessarily accept it--

"First of all, regarding piracy, President Pierre can guarantee on behalf of the Haitian government that absolutely no pirates have fled into Haiti. The Haitian government can cooperate with the Bahamian company in any form of investigation, but first it must stop the Bahamian company's war behavior against Haiti-" as a A lawyer, John Harlan, is still very polite and speaks from the standpoint of the Haitian government.

Li Mu was unconcerned, and continued to wait for John ’s condition. Regarding pirates, this was originally a rogue behavior out of nothing. In fact, not only did Li Mu know that no pirates had fled into Haiti, the Haitian government also knew that this was an excuse to start a war. What was the fact? It's not important. What's important is that the Bahamian company has already occupied Cape Haiti and is actively preparing to attack inland, which makes the Haitian government have to pay attention.

Oh, the Bahamian company has changed the name of the city back to "Cape France" after occupying Cape Haiti. This move obviously pleased the French and the British. The British think that this is "the return of civilization again" The Caribbean returned to a sign of calm, while the French sang praises and set off a wave of opposition in the country.

The slaughter of Haitian French people by Haitian blacks has become a constant pain in the hearts of French people. Every Frenchman hopes that the country will revenge for French people, but the performance of the French government in this regard has disappointed the French people, even the French government. What can't be done has now been done by a commercial company, which finally allows the anger accumulated in the hearts of the French to have a way to be released.

The response from the French and the British was so violent, and there are deeper reasons. You must know that Haiti was a French colony before, and that the black people ’s slaughter of French people was the first time that the descendants of British and French colonials were slaughtered. This made the British and the French frighten their hearts. If colonies around the world treat colonial descendants in this way, it will be the end of the world for the French and the British.

Look at the size of Britain and France. If you lose your colonies, these two countries will be nothing.

"——For the losses suffered by the Bahamian company during the previous war, the Haitian government may make compensation at its discretion, but the amount of compensation shall be determined by an observation team composed of third parties. We must also discuss the composition of the observation team-" John · Harlan finally talked about the key part, but still played a trick, which made Li Mu impatient.

"It seems our President Pierre has not recognized the situation yet. Is it that the Bahamas company's artillery has not impressed President Pierre sufficiently? It doesn't matter. After a while, I believe that President Pierre will launch Reasonable conditions. "Li Mu didn't look at John and chatted cheerfully with Ulysses S. Grant.

"Oh, it ’s normal for someone to be ignorant of current affairs, Rim, I'm going to tell you a story-" Ulysses S. Grant, regardless of John Harlan's increasingly ugly face, talked about himself Story: "During the Civil War, after William and I (William Turkusey Sherman) were ordered to form the Tennessee Front, we were ordered to attack Vicksburg, which is located in the middle of the Mississippi River and controls the entire river. On the Mississippi River, Robert ordered Pember to stay at Vicksburg. The battle lasted for seven months. As we all know, we won the final victory. Pember surrendered unconditionally. This also became the most important turning point in the Civil War. During the war, Pemberle called for a ceasefire to let civilians leave the battlefield. I rejected this request. Many people said that I was cold and ruthless, but what I want to say is that there is no room for emotion in the war. Let Vicksburg Of civilians leaving the city will lighten the burden on the garrison and increase our difficulty, perhaps letting the civilians leave really reflects our humanitarian spirit But that would be irresponsible on our soldiers, so Lim, think about your initial goal, not to be disturbed. "

During the Battle of Vicksburg, 3,000 to 4,000 citizens died as a result of hunger and shelling caused by the siege, most of them women and children. Grant captured this strategically important city in July 1863 As a result, the Mississippi River Basin was completely controlled, and it began to threaten the rear areas of the South.

It is no exaggeration to say that Vicksburg was a turning point in the Civil War. This is also the most important battle in the career of Ulysses S. Grant. Ulysses S. Grant won the final victory and then successfully ascended the president. On the throne, they reached the pinnacle of their lives. As for Robert Lee and Pember of the South Army, they have disappeared into the long river of history. In the future, people will only mention their names at special time points.

"Mr. President, you should know how much I like to listen to your past, I really want to be born in that era, so I can fight with you side by side." Ulysses Grant, who is a fart in Li Mu, is very comfortable. Not all flattery, whether Ulysses Grant is a good president or not, as a soldier, Ulysses Grant's achievements need Li Mu to look up to.

"Hahahaha, if you were born in that era, you would achieve even greater achievements than me. Maybe we can end the war two years in advance." Ulysses Grant Haha laughed and touted each other with Li Mu.

It ’s not all touted. If the Steed Group was born during the Civil War, maybe it can really speed up the war. Imagine that scenario. If the northern army was equipped with rapid-fire machine guns and rapid-fire guns, Ulysses S. Grant It won't take seven months to capture Vicksburg.

"Mr. Rim, Mr. Grant, isn't it Haiti we're talking about?" John Harlan was helpless in the face of the two touted each other.

"There is nothing to discuss about Haiti. Didn't you hear what Mr. President said just now? Pember surrendered unconditionally. This is what we want. The Haitian government wants to surrender unconditionally, so don't think of a ceasefire, compensation, etc. I'm afraid you don't know that Cape Haiti has been renamed Cape France— "Li Mu's answer was very arrogant, and it was also meaningful.

Regarding "unconditional surrender", this is also the concept put forward by Ulysses S. Grant. At the beginning of the Civil War, there was still a strong European aristocratic tradition. When the war progressed to a stage, there must be a certain period of ceasefire. Let the fighters on both sides rest, and allow enough time for the commander to adjust.

Ulysses Grant broke this tradition. During the attack on Henry Fortress and Douglas Fortress, Ulysses Grant rejected the request of the Southern Army for a short truce in accordance with the customs of the war. This was also Grant's first The term "unconditional surrender" was put forward in the Civil War, and the term has since been used in all actions in the war since Grant.

After Bahamas mercenaries occupied Cape Haiti, Jeremy Haywood has come to Cape Haiti to officially announce the renaissance of the Republic of Haiti. At the same time, Jeremy Haywood also confirmed that the name was renamed Cape Haiti will also become the capital of the Republic of Haiti.

Haiti's current capital is Port-au-Prince. In the agreement between Jéréme Haywood and the Bahamas, Port-au-Prince was part of the agreement, so Jéréme Haywood designated the "Cape France" as a special meaning for the Republic of Haiti. The capital, which is also meant to downplay the deal with the Bahamian company.

"Cape France, it doesn't make much sense to emphasize this now. After all, it's been so long that we should face the future." John Harlan had a sharp mouth, and maybe he was changed by John Harlan.

Li Mu was obviously not fooled, and looked at John Harlan's eyes very squarely: "We can't forget history. People who forget history can also be forgotten by history. The so-called past things are not forgotten, the master of the later things, so we must keep history in mind. Just as Mr. President said, remember that our original purpose should not be confused by the slight victory, and there is still a greater victory waiting for us to fight for. "

Li Mu is about to fight to the end. John Harlan cannot change Li Mu's thoughts, so John Harlan leaves immediately. He also reminds the Haitian government as soon as possible. It is best to give up the unrealistic fantasy and do well with the Bahamas. The company's preparations for breaking the boat.

"This will provoke strong resistance from the Haitian government and cause more difficulties for no reason. This is not like what a good businessman should do." Ulysses Grant also began to doubt Li Mu's purpose.

When Ulysses S. Grant wanted to come, probably the Bahamian company ’s war behavior against the Haitian government was more about Li Wei ’s consideration. The ultimate purpose of Li Mu may be only blackmail to the Haitian government. Will rise to the height of extinction.

Therefore, in this case, Ulysses Grant's advice to Li Mu is appropriate. Even if Ulysses Grant's words mean not to forget his original intention, it is only to increase the blackmailing chip and not to encourage Li Mu to subvert. A country that goes beyond Ulysses S. Grant's understanding of "business".

The methods of expansion in the East and the West are actually similar. Because of their limited population in the early Western countries, in the process of expansion, they had to rely on the power of the locals and implement a method similar to "control by foreigners" to maintain their colonial rule. Once there are no hidden dangers to the population, Westerners are extremely cruel. If you look at how Americans treat Indians, you will know how cruel white people are.

Relatively speaking, the Chinese are much more moderate in this regard. Don't look at the Qing Empire still implementing a "minority policy" for ethnic minorities, but that is not dominated by the Chinese. The Chinese are best at "cultivating the four people". The core culture influences others. Once culturally recognized, de facto annexation will be taken for granted just like warm water boiled frogs.

As an American, Li Mu could not bring out the core culture to influence Haitians. Li Mu himself did not think that black Haitians could be educated, so let's be more straightforward. Haitians die in the war, it is better than the post-war slaughter: "I Not a good businessman-you know what it says to me outside, the phrase 'armsmonger' doesn't look like a philosophical word. "

"No, no, no matter what other people say, I know what kind of person you are. Although I admit that some of your actions seem to be a bit selfish, but it is undeniable that what you did to the Chinese In fact, although the beneficiaries are mostly Chinese, they are also beneficial to the United States in the end, so do n’t be sad. Some people are always unreasonable. Unless you give him your wealth, there will always be people who are dissatisfied. " Killing the Quartet on the battlefield and staying in the presidency for eight years has seen through Ulysses S. Grant. Because of his relationship with Li Mu, from the perspective of Ulysses S. Grant, he can find that Li Mu is more Many flash points.

"Ha, if you don't say it, I wouldn't have thought I was so great." Li Mu ha laughed, this is exactly the idea Li Mu wants to spread to others, mixing racism with nationalism.

"Otherwise, why do you think a Chinese person can create such a large industry like the Junma Group in such a short period of time? If your actions were not good for the country, Washington would not allow so many key industries to be controlled by one Chinese person. "Ulysses Grant smiled slyly and weirdly. No one in this world has ever been a fool.
