1890 King of Southeast Asia

In 1917, it has reached the last month. The situation of the war appeared in the virtue of the Germans, especially the victory of the Rudden Todovies' offensive.

In the past 6 months, although the United States has "strictly adhered to neutral stance" and "no 1 party participating in the war", military preparation is real.

In historical evaluation, then President Wilson was rated as a good person, and his reputation was very good in Europe or Asia.

The reason is that Wilson and its government have proposed the 104th principles of peace in the concept of "helping the oppressive country to obtain sovereignty and ensuring a fair peace".

At present, the draft of the 10th and 4th principles has been completed, and it is placed in Wilson's drawers. The United States hopes to be the mediation of the war and mediate the war between the two sides -at least said so.

Many people have heard the principles of peace at ten or 4, but the specific content may not have seen it. Why is this proposal supported by so many countries, regions, and ethnic groups?

Article 1 of the principle of peace of ten: (1) Publicly conform to a peace treaty without secret diplomacy.

(2) Regardless of the time and peace period, the navigation of the Gonghai is absolutely free;

(3) Cancellation of economic obstacles between countries and establishing equal trade treaties;

(4) Fully guarantee each other, military reserve must be reduced to the minimum level of ensuring the safety of the country;

(5) Adjust the requirements for the colonies and treat the colonial people equally;

(6) Germany withdrew from Russia to adjust the Russian issue;

(7) The Germans withdrew from Belgium to restore Belgium's independence;

(8) The Germans withdrew from France, and Alsace 1 Lorraine also returned France;

(9) Re -adjust the Italian border according to national principles;

(10) Autonomy of all ethnic groups in Austria and Hungarian, allows independence;

(11) Allies withdrew from Romania, Serbia and Montenegro.

(12) The national self -determination of the Ottoman Empire.

(13) Restore Poland's independence.

(14) Establish an international alliance to maintain world peace.

Just look at 1 to know that many of the terms are "rootless duckweed", which cannot be linked and only beneficial to the United States.

For example, the issue of freedom of navigation and freedom of trade, the current world trade is composed of the trade between the colonies and the mandarin and the mutual trade between the clan and the main country.

For example, the British colonies are completed by the British, as well as French or German, and most of the trade in Thailand is also held by the Huaxia Empire.

What about the United States? The original trading market only had some independent countries and its own colonies. In order to seek expansion, the United States 1 was eager to break the colonial system -the colonies of others.

The United States does not oppose the colonial system, but only opposes the colonial system of others. At the same time, the United States opposes other countries to intervene in the American colonies, such as Monroeism.

The terms of the ten -4 principle about the content of the nation, the inequality treaty, the colonial, and the free trade, the starting point is its colonial market that has been monopolized by Britain and France.

These proposals were proposed as early as the late ten 9th century. With the guise of equality, freedom, and trade, it hoped that the European colonial country would let the colonial trade restrictions.

In order to do it, the United States also let the colonies, Cuba, established the country alone. Yes, the country has established it, and it still moves the American political system to directly establish the "dish cooking" system.

Then, in 1902, in 1902, the United States signed a "equal treaty" with Cuba, fully grasped Cuba's rights of economic, political, foreign political activities.

The difference between Cuba and India may be that the British sent Governor, and Americans only sent the consultant group?

To say so much, the fundamental reason for Americans to propose the principle of ten or 4 points is to serve American commercial capital, not so -called world peace.

It can be seen from the various requirements of the same alliance that they do not want to mediate, but directly treat the allies as the defeat.

According to its proposal, Germany will abandon the east and west directions of Belgium, France, Russia and other Germanys. The warriors under Germany are still under the end of the war.

The Austro -Hungarian Empire will split into Austria, Hungary, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Croatia, Slovenia and other countries, and their land will be invaded by many countries such as Italy, Poland, Serbia, Romania.

But so far, the many aspects of the Austro -Hungarian Empire still maintain an advantage. Can they accept a solution to disintegrate themselves?

The Ottoman nation's self -determination is even more ridiculous. How many ethnic groups have the Ottoman Empire, I am afraid that Americans are unclear? Can Americans allow their own states to make national self -determination?

It's funny. If Americans really think so, there will be no independent wars.

In the first 103 State Alliance, the state said that the state had the freedom to join or withdraw from, but in 1861, the Civil War was about to start, and the United States directly passed the "Anti -Federal Resolution".

In 1869, the US court ruled that "no state has the right to leave the Federal Federation or formed a new federal with other states."

Real nation self -determination, then countries like the United States without the main ethnic group cannot exist. Indians, Hawaiians, Jews, and later Texas people and California people say that this is a joke.

Based on national self -determination, the United States is just in order to brush up and grab the market.

The problem is, in the past six months, all the preparations Wilson made were to enhance the importance of the United States in order to gain benefits in the war.

In six months, the U.S. Navy successfully made up for the shortage of personnel, and the Navy finally had enough manpower to operate warships, but the 6th Army still maintained a scale of 100,000 to 30,000 people.

Congress can tolerate the president's restoration or even expansion of the Navy, because even if the Navy rebels or joins a political faction, it will not be a big problem.

And if the 6th Army joins another faction, it will be troublesome.

Wilson didn't care about the 6th Army. Wilson has not yet decided whether to join the war, nor has he considered how to join, so he naturally doesn't care about the 6th Army.

"Lansing, we are in trouble." Wilson was sitting in the President's Office playing with his pipe boredly, and he sat up straight after seeing Secretary of State Robert Lansing come in.

"Is it a victory won by the Germans?" Lansing sat down unceremoniously.

In the 1916 election, Wilson won the election with a narrow margin, and Lansing played a big role in his reelection, with the slogan of maintaining neutrality and the war increasing workers' income.

"Wilson, I don't think this is a problem. In recent days, American banks in London and Paris are almost bursting. It is roughly estimated that hundreds of millions of dollars of funds have poured into the United States."

"The stock market is about to explode! The stock exchange is full of people, production is constantly expanding, workers' income is increasing, and everything is moving in a good direction, isn't it?"

Lansing used American exaggeration to describe the situation in the United States in recent days.

A large amount of funds poured in, but there was nowhere to go, so they could only pour into the stock market. Coupled with the stimulation of the war - Americans believed that the British would increase the import of war materials, and the stock market rose.

"But the bond market is about to collapse. People would rather sell their war bonds at 80% or even less than they would sell them."

"If this continues, the bond market will collapse, which will lead to turmoil."

Speaking of economic issues, Wilson still knows a little, and said with some concern.

"And it is foreseeable that the Huaxia Empire will eat up more war bonds, thereby further increasing its voice in the war."

"This is a new empire that does not understand the spirit of freedom at all. Their increased voice is not a good thing for us."

This is what Wilson is most worried about. The United States relies on the Pacific and Indian Oceans. For historical and development reasons, its main population, wealth, and industry are concentrated on the East Coast, that is, the Atlantic Coast.

Its main naval forces are also stationed on the East Coast to deal with threats from the Atlantic.

With the emergence of the Huaxia Empire, the security of the West Coast of the United States has become a security issue that the United States must face.

In the western Pacific, the Huaxia Empire has completed its integration. Except for a crippled Japan, there is only Russia, which is in the same camp as the Huaxia Empire.

The United States has no pawns available and must face it directly, but the "weak" US Navy has no confidence in dealing with the Huaxia Empire Navy, especially since the United States does not even have a reliable support point in the Pacific.

"Mr. President, I don't think this is the most urgent problem we need to solve at the moment. According to the current situation, the problem of the Huaxia Empire will most likely be faced by the next government." Lansing said very frankly with his hands spread out.

"Don't you want to participate in the next presidential election? And I don't think it's that far away. After the European war, we will have to face this problem directly." Wilson's glasses reflected the sunlight, making Lansing unable to see Wilson's eyes.

"The Germans only won a local victory. I don't know much about military affairs, but such victories happened many times between 1915 and 1916, and the war was not over."

"And you know, the Huaxia Empire recently carried out the second batch of mobilization, publicly recruiting 25 divisions of troops."

"I can't figure out where else there is a need for so many troops except the front line."

"As for the election, Mr. President, of course I want to participate in the next presidential election, but at present, we have no advantage." Lansing sat up straight and finally answered Wilson's first question because he needed time to think.

Wilson has been re-elected, and according to the rules, he will not run for the next election. The "we" in Lansing's mouth refers to the Democratic Party. In the presidential election that just passed, the Democratic Party's power has decreased a lot.

"This is indeed a problem, but it is very easy to solve. As long as we achieve enough merits, we can reverse this decline."

Wilson moved his body.

Next year is the day of the midterm election. Wilson wants to help the Democratic Party win the next midterm election so as to further win the next general election.

"Merits?" Lansing looked at Wilson with a puzzled look.

"Winning the war, expanding the influence of the United States, expanding the market, and establishing a new order will bring us more fresh blood..."
