Start 1861: I Just Inherited the Dutch Throne
Chapter 380 Lincoln is assassinated and Andrew succeeds to the throne
The commuter guard went drinking, and the lock on the box was unlocked. No, he saw it, it was broken. Oh my God, was this a God-given opportunity, and Lincoln deserved to take his life?
This provided John Wilkes Booth with the convenience of assassination. John Wilkes Booth even doubted whether Frank had already arranged this. Otherwise, how could he let him do it so conveniently? Entered Lincoln's box.
The negligence of the guard, the police officer's absence from duty, and the malfunction of the door lock were three major mistakes that allowed John Wilkes Booth to successfully enter President Lincoln's box.
After entering the box, I saw familiar faces in the newspaper every day. In Lincoln's accident, John Wilkes Booth took out the gun hidden behind his back. In Lincoln's wife, Mary Lincoln, she was so surprised that she didn't react. With a horrified expression, he aimed his gun at Lincoln, and the evil bullet shot into President Lincoln's left ear and between his back. Although there were more than a thousand spectators, at the moment of the tragedy, there were very few people. The gunfire was heard because John Wilkes Booth chose to fire the gun at the climax of the play, while the audience was watching the performance.
The gunfire was difficult to distinguish among the applause and laughter of the audience.
After completing the assassination mission, John Wilkes Booth jumped from the box to the stage, turned around and shouted to the audience: "This is the fate of all tyrants, long live the great Prussian"
Everything happened so fast and suddenly that the audience didn't even know whether it was a drama or reality. Everyone was stunned, and John Wilkes Booth took this opportunity to escape.
However, as the screams of terror came from the box, the people recognized that it was President Lincoln's box!
As the police rushed in frantically, Lincoln, who was covered in blood, was finally carried away on a medical stretcher. Although he was still breathing, the frequency seemed to be that more air was coming out than in, which made him feel uncomfortable. Frank next to him smiled.
That night, Washington went on lockdown to hunt for the murderer and also to maintain law and order.
Everyone spent the night in tension. Early the next morning, bad news came. President Lincoln closed his eyes forever in a private apartment near the theater.
Lincoln was assassinated and successfully assassinated, which caused a huge shock in the Commonwealth of America and abroad. Lincoln's death made the people of the entire Commonwealth of America grieve.
"President Lincoln is compared to the captain of the big ship of the American Confederacy. The image is apt and he deserves the title. He led the Northern Confederate States in a decisive moment of life and death between the free labor system of the American Confederate States and the slave system. It was a war to safeguard progress and unity. Although the South eventually became independent, the North was reborn, calmed the internal chaos in the North, eliminated the slave system in the North, and laid the foundation for the development of the American Commonwealth. Immortal merit, the Netherlands has lost a very good partner" - William IV of the Kingdom of the Netherlands.
William IV's statement immediately gained the gratitude of the people of the Commonwealth of America.
Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom also stood up and expressed her position: "His personality shines brightly. He is determined, diligent, studious, humble and honest. He is beautiful in writing and eloquent. He is witty and brave. He loves the people, advocates justice, and is self-denial and devoted to public service. He was approachable and approachable. Under his leadership, the United States of America has embarked on a prosperous path. It is a pity that his death has caused the United Kingdom to lose a respectable opponent."
"Lincoln is a great man and a monument. In the history of the American Commonwealth, his contribution is comparable to that of the founding father, George Washington." - Senate President and Vice President Andrew Johnson.
After Lincoln was assassinated, Vice President Andrew Johnson was sworn in as president that day. Andrew Johnson was one of the opponents of Lincoln's policies. Although he had different opinions with Lincoln, it did not prevent him, the first heir to the presidency, from successfully succeeding to the throne.
The first thing Andrew Johnson did after he became president was to issue a wanted warrant and make every effort to track down Lincoln's assassin.
By this time, the Prussians and some Germans were in danger. They found that they seemed to be suspected of being the murderers.
Even for this reason, no one wanted to march on the streets. Obviously, the development of the situation shocked them.
On the contrary, the people demonstrating here are of Irish descent. You must know that there are more than 6 million Irish Americans in the Commonwealth of America, accounting for more than a quarter of the 23 million population of the Commonwealth of America.
This force is more than half that of the Germans including Prussia. Their influence is terrifying. In front of them, the Germans feel the pressure.
It seems that hatred is spreading between the two ethnic groups.
Many Germans, especially those who had not participated in the parade before, complained about this.
They wished that Andrew Johnson, who had just taken over as president, would catch the murderer quickly so that they could be cleared.
Kingdom of Prussia, Berlin.
Opposite Bismarck sat Wilhelm I, Moltke and Crown Prince Friedrich.
"I didn't expect that it would happen to this extent. Lincoln was assassinated. Long live the great Prussian." Bismarck had a headache.
"This sentence made the Prussians put a handful of yellow mud on their crotches. It was either shit or shit."
Bismarck's words made everyone else nodded in approval.
Crown Prince Frederick said with great concern: "The current situation is very unfavorable for Prussia. The phrase "Long Live the Great Prussians" already pointed out that the Prussians are the biggest culprits. No matter what, the Prussians have become the most important culprit in the American Commonwealth. How can we help the unpopular ethnic groups?”
Moltke, Chief of General Staff, could no longer maintain his calm at this moment and said: "You must know that there are more than 1.3 million Prussians living there, accounting for about one-third of the entire German population."
Only William I remained calm, but his frowning movements still betrayed his inner peace.
Bismarck had always been unpredictable, but William I trusted him, and the two had a tacit understanding for a long time.
Sure enough, after Bismarck paused, he said harshly: "In the past, Andrew deliberately distinguished the Germans, making the Prussians the target of distance for many Germans. Now there is a Prussian who has become the biggest murder suspect. Obviously, Milli The situation in the Confederation is now unfavorable to the Prussians, so there is nothing we can do to improve their living environment."
"What can be done?" Crown Prince Frederick asked impatiently.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should remember how the Netherlands helped the Dutch in South Africa when the British Empire deployed hundreds of thousands of troops to aid South Africa, making it difficult for the Dutch Boers to win."
Crown Prince Frederick: "Negotiated with the British, transferred the Boer territory in South Africa in exchange for benefits, and obtained the Australian continent."
Crown Prince Frederick was very envious of the Netherlands' acquisition of the Australian continent. He even complained that his mother-in-law, Queen Victoria, had spent too much money and that New Zealand should have been enough to deal with the Netherlands.
Even if it were to be replaced, it should be with Prussia. Even his son-in-law could push Prussia to transfer Namicia in northwest South Africa to Britain and strengthen Britain's presence in southern Africa.
Bismarck nodded first, then shook his head and said: "Actually, that is only one of the important purposes of the Netherlands. Another purpose of the Netherlands is that the smart William IV paid more attention to the population issue of the Netherlands. There are four to five million Dutch people in South Africa. That was what William IV valued most. After all, the Netherlands’ population shortage was a constraint on the Netherlands’ development into a powerful country.”
Crown Prince Frederick's eyes lit up, "What the Prime Minister means, we can also bring the Prussians of the American Commonwealth."
