Chapter 199 The Queen of America Arrives in New York(1/2)

The Ming Dynasty court issued instructions to the royal families and courts of Britain and France:

"According to the observation of Ming Dynasty information personnel, the situation in Beiyinzhou, especially in the United States, is extremely tense now.

"In order to prevent possible chaos from harming the Ming Dynasty's immigrants, the Ming Dynasty will continue to send more troops to Beiyinzhou.

"France's armed forces in Canada are basically sufficient, but Britain's forces are relatively weak.

"It is recommended that the United Kingdom send additional armed forces to the American region as soon as possible to suppress possible chaos.

"As the main forces in the Northern Yinzhou region, Britain and France have the obligation to maintain local stability."

After receiving Ming's reminder, the officials and royal families of the British and British courts felt very melancholy.

Especially the British.

The situation in the United States is like a dynamite bag swinging above a fire that could be ignited at any time.

The Queen of America has just been arranged to prepare for the establishment of the Parliament of the Kingdom of America, which has barely stabilized the situation.

Now, with a large-scale investment crisis, and the continuous influx of laid-off slaves from Central and Southern Yinzhou into the southern United States, the situation in the United States has once again become precarious.

After William Pitt saw the news, he pinched his forehead feebly.

Peter can basically confirm that Ming Dynasty did not deliberately cause trouble in the United States.

Merchants of the Ming Dynasty discovered business opportunities, and selling slaves from Nanyinzhou to the United States was just a commercial act.

If the Ming Dynasty really deliberately caused trouble, there was no need to contact and remind Britain and France, especially there was no need to suggest that Britain and France take the initiative to increase their troops.

From the beginning, the Ming Dynasty was determined not to keep a large number of Mo slaves.

The Ming Dynasty allowed the evacuated Taixi people to leave with their slaves. This was a decision that respected personal property and was made during the peace talks.

This was even the condition that diplomats from various Thai and Spanish countries, including Peter, fought for.

Now it seems that the safest choice is to abandon the slaves to the Ming Dynasty, or send them collectively to Mozhou.

But it's too late to say anything now.

The United Kingdom was originally preparing to let Queen Charlotte of the United States go to the United States.

The ceremony to be crowned King of the United States was officially held, and the first Parliament of the Kingdom of America was convened.

Can Queen Charlotte be allowed to pass under this current situation?

In the midst of increasingly intense tiredness and exhaustion, Peter felt a dull pain in his head.

He pinched his forehead feebly again, frowning and sighing in his heart.

He is like a maintenance worker, trying his best to keep an old and twisted machine running.

If you fix a fault yourself, a new fault will appear immediately.

After it finally stabilized for a while, it would suddenly cause problems again.

How can we fundamentally solve the current problem?

How can all the areas controlled by the United Kingdom be truly united?

There needs to be a king who truly holds power and has enough courage and vision.

Able to suppress different opinions and quickly get on the right path.

Just like the emperor of Ming Dynasty.

Britain's George III may have barely qualified, but his children are not even qualified.

In the final analysis, the study of Ming Dynasty is still not thorough enough.

If the princes were trained centrally like Lucy did, there would not be a shortage of qualified monarchs.

Pitt once again attended another day's sitting of the House of Commons with reflection and deep concern.

Pitt asked for more troops to be sent to the United States and to arrange military spending.

As a result, Fox naturally stood up and objected:

"The King of America's affairs should be resolved by the Kingdom of America itself.

"It should not be the United Kingdom that sends troops and funds them.

"More troops should be recruited within the Kingdom of America.

"Let the Kingdom of America pay for its own military expenditures.

"If weapons and equipment are needed, the United Kingdom can sell them."

Peter said loudly with some annoyance:

"What time is it now and you are still thinking about that pitiful profit!

“Let the United States recruit its own troops and raise its own military expenditures, which means that the United States will be completely independent!

"Once any contradictions or conflicts arise between the United Kingdom and the Kingdom of America, it is impossible for these troops to obey the orders of the United Kingdom."

Fox responded tit-for-tat and immediately said:

"America was supposed to be an independent kingdom!

"Only the United Kingdom's attempt to control the United States will bring conflict between us.

"Reconcile the Kingdom of America as a complete and equal whole.

"Of course there are no traditional, conservative, feudal worries anymore!"

Pete continued to spray:

"The Tianzhu region was already unsustainable and had to allow the slave trade to the Mozhou colony.

"If we lose America again, the United Kingdom will become a second-rate country.

"We will completely lose the opportunity and ability to lead Tessie."

Fox still retorted as a matter of course:

"Why should we lead the continent? Does this do us any good?

"Are you still trying to rely on the strength of the European and Western countries to compete with the Ming Dynasty again?

"That is simply impossible to happen, and it is simply impossible to win. The British people will not accept another world war that challenges the Ming Dynasty.

"The current world is led by the Ming Dynasty, and it is safest for the United Kingdom to integrate into the Ming Dynasty's system."

Peter felt that he had no way to convince his opponent, so he could only change his mind:

"Queen Charlotte is going to the United States to be crowned and to preside over the American Congress.

"It should be escorted by the royal navy and protected by the royal army.

"Don't argue any further, Queen Charlotte is also second in line to the throne of the United Kingdom.

"The royal family has the right to arrange troops to provide the best protection for them."

Pitt took the matter of sending troops beyond the scope of the court and regarded it as an internal matter of the royal family.

The British Royal Navy theoretically belongs to the royal family.

The Army itself does not carry royal titles, but many of its subordinate units do.

The royal family's request for troops to escort Charlotte to Yinzhou is a completely reasonable operation.

It's just that the scale certainly cannot be as large as a formal battle.

Fox could not completely veto such a thing unless he decided to support the abolition of the royal family.

We can only suppress the size of the escort force as much as possible.

Lawmakers waffled for days over the details of Charlotte's trip to the United States.

In addition to the size of the escort force, what is more important is the selection of suitable accompanying personnel.

Charlotte has just turned ten this year. Such a child cannot fulfill her duties as a king.

So the Kingdom of America also needs a regent.

The natural choice is Charlotte's father, the Prince of Wales, Crown Prince of the United Kingdom.

But the Prince of Wales is also the Regent of the United Kingdom.

It is a small thing that the Prince of Wales cannot stay in the United States for a long time, but it is a big thing that the United States and the United Kingdom should be merged in advance.

A large number of congressmen, who feared that the United Kingdom would soon annex the United States, unanimously opposed it.

In the end, the Prince of Wales chose his second brother, Frederick Augustus, Duke of York, to serve as regent of the Kingdom of America.

The frail Princess Amelia will also go to the United States for vacation.

The news that Queen Charlotte and the Duke of York were about to go to the United States was directly transmitted to the United States by the British royal family and court immediately after the decision was made.

When the arrangements between the Kingdom of America and the Queen were finalized, the representatives of the American states already knew that there would be these arrangements, and now they are just setting a more accurate date.

Now representatives from every state in the United States and spokespersons from various interest groups in the United States have gathered in New York.

The rapidly escalating chaotic situation in the United States seems to have pressed the pause button at this time.
