NOVEL NEXT Nanming: I can build wonders
Chapter 844: Millennium Boat Meeting (Please subscribe!)
The day after William III left England, Princess Anne ascended the throne at Hampton Court Palace, supported by a group of MPs.
Originally, William would die suddenly in 1702, and then Anne would succeed, but I didn't expect it to be earlier.
Maybe returning to his hometown for the elderly, William can live longer.
Because it is not in the way of others.
However, how much to pay is a big problem for the gentlemen of the British Parliament.
Without a few months, there will definitely be no results discussed.
For the British, kowtow is a small matter, but losing money is a big deal.
However, they passed on the resignation of William III and the succession of Queen Anne.
It was beyond the expectations of Queen Anne and those members of the British Parliament, although they solved the problem of "who kowtows, who is the king" as quickly as possible.
However, the vast Atlantic still made it impossible for this news to spread to the twelve North American states in the first place-it would take forty or fifty days to travel from England to Boston with smooth sailing.
But the American grandparents in the twelve states of North America couldn't sit still for a long time.
These people have a guilty conscience to begin with, and this is not the era when the United States dominates the Americas and is awesome.
There is no need for Ming to send troops at all, just arming the Yin people in Mexico is enough to defeat them.
Even though the twelve prefectures had been fully mobilized, they had worked so hard to increase the number of militiamen to [-], which was not enough for the Yin people sent by Daming.
So for three months in the summer of 1696, the entire Twelve States were enveloped in an atmosphere of fear of imminent catastrophe.
The disturbing news came one after another in August 1696.
First of all, the second United Nations Conference will be held in September. Diplomatic envoys from the Ming and Qing Dynasties have arrived in Frankfurt. They are forming an investigation team on the Yin people issue.
Secondly, it was news from businessmen who were going to Mexico City for trade that the first batch of Aztec Yin peacekeepers had begun training.
According to the merchants, these Yin peacekeeping troops are not only well-equipped, but also trained very hard. They seem to be stronger than the British regular army!
The dispatch east of the Mississippi was said to begin in December.
Feeling that a catastrophe was imminent, the Angsa gangsters in the twelve states of North America finally couldn't bear it anymore and decided to convene a Continental Congress in September 1696 to decide the future and destiny of the twelve states!
September 1696, 9, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Because of the need to avoid Boston, the center of British rule in the New England Dominion, the slightly remote Philadelphia was chosen as the location for the first Continental Congress in history.
Philadelphia is now a small village, and in order to hide it from others, old Washington, old Franklin, old Adams, old Roosevelt and others who were responsible for convening this meeting also came up with an impeccable title: to investigate the number and distribution of Yin people in twelve states. Current situation and follow-up treatment!
They met on a cruise ship on a small lake in Philadelphia.
It can be said to be very hidden.
Although there was silence on the lake, there was a heated discussion inside the cruise ship at this moment.
The grandparents of this group of Millikins were either robbers or upstarts.
Most of them are not decent people and have little education.
Therefore, the First Continental Congress was held as if it were a gathering of people in Liangshan.
However, these people are wearing decent suits and wigs today, and they really look like they are going to do something big.
However, the order of the venue was a bit chaotic, and there were no rules for the discussion.
It seems that no one takes the three leading brothers Old Washington, Old Adams, and Old Franklin seriously. They all talk about what they think, and they blush when they talk, and they almost fight. A small cruise ship is a bit rickety.
"The Yin people's peacekeeping force is coming soon! But where is the King of England's reinforcements?"
"I don't see any reinforcements! You don't know yet, the British Governor Churchill is deploying defenses and stockpiling food in Boston and Lexington. It looks like he is going to retreat to the coastal areas of northeast New England!"
"It's no use returning the earl!"
"I heard that he wants to levy castle taxes in the twelve states, so he will build a fort line along the Appalachian Mountains. At least dozens of bastions will be built!"
"How much will it cost to build so many bastions!"
"I heard that our militiamen from the New World are going to guard the front-line bastions, and the British are hiding in the rear fortresses to supervise the battle!"
"It's disgusting! How can we make money if this continues?"
The meeting gradually began to spiral out of control, and they began to feel self-consciously divided from the British.
"The British are using us as cannon fodder,"
"So we have to grasp our own destiny!"
"Yes, it is time for the British to rule the New World."
"No protection, no allegiance! No protection, no taxes!"
"If we leave our mother country, who else can protect us?"
As soon as this question came out, there was silence in the conference hall.England is Mi Lijian's real mother. If she kicks her away, Mi Lijian is an unfilial son, what should he do?
"gentlemen!"
Old Washington spoke at this time, and when he spoke, his full-bodied voice attracted everyone's attention.
"Everyone, I suggest that we should first ensure the ability to protect ourselves. Every adult white person in the twelve states, regardless of gender, should learn to use a firearm. We must first rely on the gun in our own hands to protect ourselves, our family and property. !"
Apparently, Washington Sr. was a staunch gun-toting liberal.
Old Franklin also spoke at this time, "I agree with Washington's point of view, we now need a strong, disciplined colonial self-government that represents the interests of all white people in the twelve states and can unite us to fight!"
Franklin really dared to think and do.
The elder Roosevelt added: "However, since our power is too weak and the enemy is too strong, we also need diplomatic means that are flexible enough. We must have wisdom so that we can seek a balance between the two great powers in the world. Space to live!"
"Of course, the first problem we have to solve is the crisis of the Yin people's peacekeeping troops. We must do everything we can to avoid war!"
"Nicholas," someone asked at this time, "What can we do? Do we have to kneel down and beg for mercy from the Yin peacekeeping troops?"
Old Roosevelt smiled bitterly, "Yes, the reality is that we need to kneel, but not to the filthy Yin people, but to the Emperor Ming and the Emperor Frank!"
"Although they are all tyrants and backward feudal emperors, only they can save us now!"
"But how do we kneel to two emperors at the same time?"
