There is not much time left for Haiti, not much to the point of non-existence. The invasion is for the United Company's business in Haiti, which is right and wrong. In fact, it is mainly for the election and to test the reaction of the citizenry to the war.

In a country like the United States where fake news is everywhere, the so-called anti-war wave is not worthy of belief if it is not visible to the naked eye. Sheffield has a full understanding of his motherland. Before he officially became the only world hegemon,

That is, during the period immediately after the collapse of the Soviet Union.

The United States always has to find a reason for interfering with foreign countries, even if the reason is completely untenable. At worst, after it has become a fait accompli, it can be said in an understatement that I was wrong, or even a small amount of money can be paid to settle the matter.

Therefore, the invasion of Haiti this time was naturally the only big country in the Americas responsible for helping the Haitian government quell the riots and restore order. After paying the price to stimulate the anti-war wave, I said I was wrong.

However, from the perspective of slave owners, an opponent of Haiti's level should not allow the United States to reach the stage where I was wrong.

"The military operation will begin before the election, and a thousand Marines will be dispatched." During the second meeting, Daniel Peake gave Sheffield a briefing, saying that relevant preparations were in progress.

"I think this is like cutting butter with a sharp knife. It will not cause much hindrance. The members of the Black Gold Company will cooperate with the actions of the Marine Corps and reflect the unyielding heart of the citizens of the United States who believe in the motherland." Sheffield took a few long puffs of cigarettes.

, then reluctantly threw away the cigarette butt, and said with an intoxicated look, "I have an aircraft platform that can be used as an experimental aircraft to test its role in war. This is not a big problem."

"The state has never opposed the actions of its citizens to express their patriotism, just like during the Spanish-American War, President Roosevelt organized a troop to participate in the war." Daniel Peake righteously acknowledged, "Stopping it will only make things worse.

Patriotic citizens don’t understand.”

"That's good, this is a good tradition." Sheffield pinched his waist and praised, "This can also be regarded as the practice of the Monroe Doctrine and opposes Europe's use to sow relations between American countries."

Since Haiti is such a weak existence, it is natural that there is no need to prepare for public opinion. However, some newspapers have expressed concerns about the current turmoil in Haiti. Haiti is an island and may cause a refugee problem and have an impact on the United States.

Individual congressmen expressed concern about the turmoil and difficulties in Haiti. At the same time, preparations for invasion had begun. The Secretary of War ordered the Marine Corps stationed in the south to assemble. Thousands of Marines were not a problem for the federal government. Unknown to others

The gathering was completed before I woke up.

It does not even require any deployment and can be carried out by fully utilizing existing resources. It is completely different from the landing in Cuba during the Spanish-American War.

After learning that the matter was in progress, Sheffield nodded with satisfaction and went to New York to visit relatives. Alice Roosevelt's cousin, Mr. Franklin Roosevelt, is a talent that the Democratic Party should focus on cultivating. The most important thing is that this is a millionaire.

Rich people with assets should not underestimate assets worth millions. The entire Haitian government has less than one million U.S. dollar reserves.

Why did the slave owners know about the Haitian government's dollar reserves? It was naturally because they could not sit back and watch the unrest in Haiti cause losses to this poor country. In order to prevent this large amount of dollar reserves for Haiti from being burned. Sheffield has already entered into a partnership with Union Bank

Blair said hello and temporarily kept this precious foreign exchange for the Haitian government.

On the night of September 28, Port-au-Prince, the capital of Haiti, which had been noisy all day, calmed down. The sea breeze was gentle, the moonlight was bright, and the tired people had fallen asleep. At midnight, several warships had torn through the darkness and split the waves.

Obstructed, the huge body loomed in the sea water, approaching the noisy port during the day.

The members of the Black Gold Company in Port-au-Prince set up headlights as signals to lead the domestic military forces to land. For Haitians, the United States is an irresistible behemoth. Even if people wake up from their dreams, there is nothing they can do.

God heard this thought, so no one noticed.

"Let those Europeans know whose territory the Americas belong to." There was excitement in the tone of the conversation between the two employees of the black gold company. For the big boss of the United Company, in the face of European capital and enterprises, what should they do?

A harmonious attitude. However, their employees in Haiti have a completely different perception and dislike the presence of European companies in Haiti.

There have been three coups in Haiti in the past two years. Although the Haitian constitution prohibits foreigners from owning land, French and German business firms have obtained many land titles in Haiti through local agents. These Europeans are so shameless that they actually cooperated with the Black Gold Company.

A conflict occurred in the operation.

Haiti has been a French colony for a long time. France has always had a legacy of influence in Haiti. At the same time, due to the political turmoil in Haiti, it has attracted aggressive German capital in recent years. The relationship between Germany and France is not harmonious. Representatives of upper-level companies can nod.

However, the lower-level employees cannot do this. French companies and German companies are fighting openly and secretly, which makes Black Gold Company extremely troubled.

Finally, the fully loaded Marine Corps warship landed in Port-au-Prince and docked at the dock operated by United Company alone. A large number of soldiers disembarked from the warship, while members of the Black Gold Company were already waiting on the shore, leading the Marine Corps soldiers to charge.

To the Presidential Palace.

Because of the limited objective conditions in Haiti, for this landing operation, each soldier prepared a torch, about thirty centimeters long, with one end wrapped in oilcloth, which was easy to light, and placed in his backpack. Near the presidential palace, the Marine Corps

The soldiers finally alerted the presidential guard.

This has to be said to be a regrettable thing. When dealing with such a small country, it is better to go smoothly than to go smoothly, but in the end we still have to use guns and guns to solve the problem.

The battle was short but fierce. After breaking into the Presidential Guard camp, the Marine Corps mortars reduced the number of shots. After all, there were no defenses built in the Presidential Guard position. The main guns were used to attack.

The soldiers were of course overqualified and overqualified. After all, the number of artillery shells was limited, so it was better to use them sparingly and basically did not fire much.

When a large number of Marine Corps soldiers showed up, the soldiers of the Haitian Presidential Guard knew that this was not a coup that had happened frequently in recent years. The opponent did not belong to any force, but the Marine Corps of the United States of America.

The heavily armed opponent had landed in Port-au-Prince. Once this information became clear, the Presidential Guard had no intention of fighting. Although many people have experienced multiple coups in recent years, they have never thought of fighting to the death with the US military.

The noble performance of these Haitians pleased the Marine Corps soldiers. Although the Marine Corps soldiers can be said to have the lowest status among the military services, and they only hope to live to take care of the food and to die to build the flag, but who is willing to die if they can live?

An enemy that enters a state of surrender as soon as they meet is the enemy that the Marine Corps likes to face most. At dawn, the Marine Corps that landed have taken control of the Haitian Presidential Palace. After counting the casualties, no one was killed. This made the commander who led the troops even more worried.

Happy.

Sheffield described it as an invasion that required no preparation at all, just a quick knife cutting butter, achieving its goal overnight.

In the early morning of September 29, the New Orleans Morning News officially issued the news about the great Marine Corps landing in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, amidst the eager expectations of the Haitian people, and stated that there were no casualties.

The New Orleans Morning News wrote in the newspaper, "Since the large-scale penetration of European imperialist capital into Haiti, in the past three years, there have been many successful or attempted coups in Haiti. The fundamental reason is that some European countries have had conflicts with each other.

The hostility between the two countries has led to this situation. Haiti has had three presidents, and the people of the country are in pain and eager to help their country."

"There is no doubt that the United States is the only country like this." Sheffield commented while eating breakfast while holding a copy of his New York Daily News. He turned to Franklin Roosevelt and asked, "I believe that after this military operation, Haiti should

Calm will be restored, and then the southern coast will not have to worry about the invasion of refugees."

Franklin Roosevelt nodded, with a look of thought flashing across his carved face, "If my guess is correct, this military action should have broad support from many Democrats in the South."

"Of course!" Sheffield admitted simply, putting down the newspaper, "but it is too simple to look at it from an economic perspective alone. The instability in Haiti will affect the entire United States."

Franklin Roosevelt meant that it must have been the lobbying of Congress by large southern companies that prompted this invasion. This was something Sheffield could never admit, even if that was the case.

The only fly in the ointment is that the aircraft carrier was not put to use smoothly, and it is not a good thing if the enemy is too weak.

"If we don't talk about this matter, the result is always good. We must protect American countries from being affected by European imperialism and resume stable development. This is a good thing." Sheffield said some idealistic words, and then

The conversation changed, "Franklin, let's talk about the next thing. Are you sure about the next senatorial election? It's only a month away."

"After this incident, I was a little unsure. There was an invasion so close to the election, and I am a Democrat. I don't know how the citizens feel about this military operation." Franklin Roosevelt said with some uncertainty.

, "Mr. William, you seem to think that my election problem is not a big problem?"
