Daming 1805

Chapter 221 Going to the League of Nations

As the main bystander of the incident, Daming is in a relatively calm state of watching the show.

But the parties were not in such a good mood.

The news from New York and the United States, Adams' request came one after another, and the British royal family and the ruling and opposition parties were stunned.

I started to have high-intensity meetings every day, but I couldn't come up with any useful ideas.

King George III, who had been sober for two months, fell ill again, and the condition was unprecedentedly serious.

My favorite youngest daughter and only granddaughter were hijacked by the rebels. Even those who are healthy may fall into a slump. George III, who was already mentally ill, could not bear this kind of stimulation.

The Prince of Wales, acting as regent, is once again de facto sole king, but he is not happy at all.

His only legal daughter and heir became a hostage of American rebels.

The point is that the Prince of Wales has no clue about the current situation and doesn't know what to do.

There is no guidance on what to do.

In the past two months, the time when his father was sober was the most comfortable two months for the Prince of Wales.

Act as regent yourself, manage daily affairs, and hold the actual power of Britain.

Father's body and spirit are not good, and he basically doesn't take the initiative to interfere with his own affairs.

If you encounter any difficult problems, you can ask your father for advice and let him make a decision.

After all, he is his own father, and his interests are completely consistent with his own, so he is truly trustworthy and honorable.

Now that life is over and may never return.

The Prince of Wales has never prayed for his father to get better soon in his life like now.

Prime Minister William Pitt, Jr., should be trustworthy, but he has no way of controlling Parliament.

When Dad was sober, the relatively stable and harmonious parliament turned into a vegetable market again.

Another day of daily meetings, in the presence of the Prince of Wales, and a fresh round of brawling began among MPs.

There is an eagle member who once again requests the local navy and army to send troops as soon as possible to punish the rebels in the United States.

But the Prince of Wales and a large number of MPs are concerned about the safety of the royal family, so they cannot accept it.

However, under the suggestion of William Pitt, the Congress has decided to start remobilization and start making preparations for the United States.

There are radical congressmen, which demand open and honest negotiations with the United States to allow it independence.

This was opposed by most of the members of the parliament. In the future, independence will be allowed after a disturbance. How can the United Kingdom be united?

There are also conservative MPs who suggest inviting other countries to mediate, compromise interests and maintain the status quo.

The most conservative plan is the one with the most approval, but still cannot be approved by the majority of members.

Radicals believed that the interests of the mainland and the North of the United States could not be reconciled, and the negotiations were fruitless.

The hawks believe that before the war is at a disadvantage, they cannot negotiate with the rebels to soften.

There are even more people complaining that New York should not have been the capital of the Kingdom of America.

It should be set in Richmond, Wilmington, Charleston, etc. in the safer south from the beginning.

The Prince of Wales watched them quarrel for several days, and finally shouted a few times angrily:
"Before you argue about how to deal with America, find a way to save my daughter, sister and brother!"

The scene was quiet for a while, and Prime Minister Pete spoke again:

"Your Highness, in order to rescue the three Highnesses, we must make a gesture of starting negotiations with the rebels.

"And sent personnel to Northern Yinzhou to contact the rebels, declaring that the release of the three His Highnesses is a prerequisite for formal negotiations.

"We ask third-party countries to come forward, or the international coalition to come forward to gain the trust of the rebels."

The Prince of Wales felt that Pitt's plan was okay.

But someone immediately stood up and asked:
"It is absolutely impossible for the rebels to release the three Highnesses without a promise of independence.

"So what does your Excellency the Prime Minister mean, that we promise to allow the independence of the United States under the witness of the League of Nations?

"And then allow them to be truly independent, or do they tear up their commitments again and damage the political credibility of the United Kingdom?"

Pete has already made preparations, and at this time he directly explained his plan:

"I mean, they can be allowed to be partially independent.

"As far as we know, after the establishment of the Kingdom of America, the independence tendencies in most areas have subsided.

"There are only a few states north of Virginia where the tendency towards independence is still very strong.

"Their purpose of independence is to raise tariffs and protect local factories and enterprises.

"The origin of raw materials that our local factories rely on happens to not include these states.

"So my suggestion is to separate these states from the Kingdom of America, establish a Grand Duchy of New York, and let Princess Amelia be the Grand Duke of New York.

"The Grand Duchy of New York remains a protectorate under the United Kingdom, but enjoys greater autonomy than the United Kingdom.

"Allow them to determine their own import and export tariffs, allow them to protect their own industries.

"Use this as a condition for the release of the three Highnesses, they should be able to accept it."

Monroe is in Yinzhou, and now the British Parliament has no one representing the interests of the United States.

The other delegates considered it and found that Pitt's plan had applied compromises and compromises to the limit.

The scope of Peter's plan for the Grand Duchy of New York is about 20 square kilometers from Maryland to Massachusetts, which is almost one-sixth of the entire United States.

Allowing the Grand Duchy of New York to have its own tariffs, the only loss for the United Kingdom is that local manufacturers can no longer dump goods to the local area at will.

If possible, representatives representing the interests of local British manufacturers certainly do not want to accept this loss.

But now there is no better choice.

The point is that this kind of compromise and compromise is to save the three royal family members,
Of course, there are people who oppose the royal family among the members of parliament, but for the time being, no one has dared to openly oppose the royal family.

No one dared to publicly clamor that the three royals should be abandoned.

Then they will definitely be targeted and targeted by the Prince of Wales, and they will not have to mix in the political arena of the United Kingdom in the future.

So the representatives glanced at the Prince of Wales, hesitated for a few seconds, and did not express any objection.

Pete felt that the time was ripe, and turned to look at the Prince of Wales above:
"Your Highness, I think this is the only feasible solution at present, and there is no need to hesitate any longer.

"We should save Princess Charlotte as soon as possible."

The Prince of Wales was obviously taken aback when he heard the last word. Thinking of his only legal daughter, he finally made up his mind:
"Okay, let's do it like this, please ask Prime Minister Pete to arrange it immediately!"

Today's meeting finally made some progress. After the relevant decisions were documented on site, the meeting was adjourned immediately.

The Prince of Wales went to see his mentally ill father anxiously, praying that he would get well soon.

Peter went to a cabinet meeting and planned to arrange for his cousin, British Foreign Secretary Grenville, to contact and negotiate with John Adams.

As a result, the cabinet meeting had just started, and everyone had just started discussing the details of the negotiations. A piece of latest news from Beiyinzhou was urgently sent to the cabinet meeting room and placed in front of Pete:
Referring to the Chinese tradition, Napoleon Bonaparte proclaimed himself king in New York as Napoleon I, King of Canada.

Napoleon is preparing to marry Queen Charlotte of the United States as his queen and establish the United Kingdom of Canada and the United States of America.

John Adams no longer calls for Amelia to be made Queen of America.

As long as the United Kingdom recognized the complete independence of the United States, they immediately released Princess Amelia and Prince Frederick.

Pete looked at these few short messages, only felt a dull pain in his whole skull, and he was completely stunned.

In the world wars of the past ten years, the most talented Thai and Western generals emerged, Napoleon Bonaparte.

It was originally the strongest pillar to protect the interests of the Thai and Western countries, but now it has become the chief culprit threatening the British and French colonies.

Peter and his cabinet members had guessed that if it were not for the support of the French armed forces controlled by Napoleon, Adams would not have the courage to directly launch a coup.

The strength of the north of the United States is too different from that of the south.

Only by uniting with French Canada can Adams have the hope and courage to make such a big fuss.

The fact that Napoleon went to New York immediately after the Adams coup is evidence.

Now this news proves it again.

Grenville took the telegram from his cousin, and the other cabinet members came up to take a look, and there were exclamations and complaints in the conference room:
"How dare you proclaim yourself king! This lunatic! This is Taixi, not Daming!"

"Sure enough, this Napoleon Bonaparte is the real mastermind behind the turmoil in Yinzhou!"

"He wants to marry Queen Charlotte as his wife, how dare he think!"

"It may be that Princess Amelia is found to be weak and sick, and it is impossible to give birth at all."

"It may also be because Charlotte is already the queen, and she doesn't need to help Princess Amelia to toss about the throne."

"We must rescue the three royal family members immediately, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."

Pete thought about the current situation in his heart, pinched his temple habitually and said:
"We are finally absolutely sure that once Adams and Napoleon make peace, the situation in Yinzhou will be completely out of control.

"But now this is not our own business, we must bring in the French to solve it together.

"Notify the French immediately to discuss what to do with this Napoleon Bonaparte!"

After finishing speaking, Pete paused for half a second, and seemed to suddenly think of something:
"In addition, Daming and the League of Nations are officially notified that both we and France are members of the League, and Da Ming is the leader of the League.

"Now it involves the rebellion of two countries, and the leader of Ming Dynasty cannot stay out of it.

"Otherwise, what qualifications does he have to continue to be the leader of this alliance?"

Grenville froze for a moment, then subconsciously asked:
"Is it useful to inform Daming? Is it meaningful to make a fuss about the League of Nations? Daming probably supports Napoleon, right?
"If I were Emperor Ming, I would definitely support Napoleon in disrupting our Yinzhou colony."

Pete shook his head and said at once:

"It is because of this possibility that we have to go through official procedures and officially notify Daming and the League of Nations.

"If Daming and the League of Nations are left alone, then there is no need for the League of Nations to exist!
"If I were the Great Food Prince who promoted the establishment of the League of Nations, I would definitely not let it go.

"At least support us in name, not directly support Napoleon on the surface.

"As long as he supports us in name, it will save a lot of trouble."
