I, Zhu Houzhao, join the US imperialist chat group

Chapter 29 Zhu Houzhao: Some people perished because of the abolition of slavery!
The history of the development of the two parties came out.

Jackson frowned.

Washington also feels a bit chaotic.

Zhu Houzhao felt like he couldn't sort out the cuts and it was still messy.

After all, there really was no such open party struggle in the courts of the past dynasties.

On the other hand, there was the Eastern Han Dynasty where eunuchs and relatives took turns to take power. If Zhu Houzhao were to point this out, the rotation speed of these two groups of people in the Eastern Han Dynasty was almost the same as Lincoln's American partisanship.

Either eunuchs were in power or relatives were in power.

It all depends on who is in control of the Eastern Han Dynasty emperor.

The Yellow Turban Uprising was, strictly speaking, caused by party strife in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.

This period of history was somewhat unclear to him when he was learning it.

Zhu Houzhao tried to make an analogy, but he could only accept it this way.

[American Taizu Washington: Mr. Lincoln, I still can’t understand what you’re talking about. Let me summarize it a little bit...]

[In the first sixty years, our country in the United States should have been a period of partisanship between the Federalist Party and the Democratic-Republican Party. 】

[After Jackson came to power, it became a period of partisanship between the Democratic Party and the Whig Party, which lasted for about twenty years. 】

[After you came to power, it became a period of partisanship between the Democratic Party and the Republican Party. I don’t know how long it lasted? 】

Fortunately, there was a class representative summarizing, and Washington immediately caught Lincoln and made a lot of summaries.

[Merezu Louis XVI: Washington, you are simply great. I don’t understand what Lincoln said, but as soon as you said it so simply, I understood. 】

Louis XVI couldn't help but like it, and Zhu Houzhao's eyes also lit up. This summary was concise and comprehensive, and yes, he understood it at once.

[ Mercer Lincoln: Although there are still many parties in the middle... But Mr. Washington, your summary is probably this, or similar. Anyway, the parties that are not elected will create some troubles for the ruling party... If the ruling party does not handle it well, the support rate will drop, and the opposition party will rise. Waiting for the general election in four years, they will come back again. One of the reasons for the outbreak of civil war. This is it. 】

[American Xuanzong Jackson: Lincoln, can you tell me again, who was the guy who established the Confederacy in the South after losing the election? I remember you said his name. This guy who has no national interests and started a civil war is not worthy of being a Democrat! Since he created a civil war, then I will deal with him! 】

After a moment of silence, Jackson asked again. Since he knew that the cause of the civil war was caused by this person, wouldn't it be enough to solve the problem of the person who caused the problem?

Sometimes, things just have to be simple and rough.

[Meliezu Louis XVI: Haha, yes, yes! Jackson's method was clever enough. Since he created a civil war, he should be prepared to die. 】

[American Taizu Washington: Although I think this is very pleasant...but I always feel that it will not be that simple. For example, if someone kills me early...will the Independence War not break out? Your Majesty Louis XVI, won't they help us? 】

Washington is aware of an unavoidable objective law. Some events cannot be stopped by the overwhelming force of force.

This made Louis XVI stunned. Without Franklin and the others, France would surely end!
This is the big trend.

[Mercy Lincoln: Mr. Washington makes a lot of sense, Mr. Jackson! The causes of our Civil War were many, and while Jefferson Hamilton Davis founded the Confederacy, could the Civil War have been avoided without him? 】

[Besides, Davis was born in 1808. During your administration, he was just a young man in his twenties or thirties who was not even famous in the political and military circles. He was about the same as me! He is unknown, but he is still a supporter of your Democratic Party and even regards you as an idol. Later, he led troops to invade the Mexican capital during the U.S.-Mexican War and made great contributions to our United States... Compared to us, Politicians who have not contributed to the country actually have a lot of merit. 】

Yes, just like me, he is a person who works hard with real swords and guns.

Jackson didn't know what to say for a moment.

[Mercy Zu Lincoln: Besides, even if you kill him. Mr. Jackson, can you resolve the second contradiction...the conflict between federal power and state power? 】

[Meixuanzong Jackson: I can't! Unless I am really Louis XVI or His Majesty Napoleon, will it be possible to establish a truly centralized federal center! 】

Without thinking, Jackson answered directly in the affirmative. [Meshi Zu Lincoln: I can’t either... This thing is the foundation of our country. After all, Mr. Washington planted this contradiction when you founded the country. Unless Mr. Washington really proclaims himself emperor and truly becomes an emperor like Napoleon, will it be possible to resolve the contradiction between federal and state rights. 】

This contradiction can be said to have existed since the founding of the United States, and has been controversial for more than two hundred years.

[American Taizu Washington: So, is it back to the discussion of me not claiming to be emperor? Didn't we discuss it before? It is true that we cannot establish a centralized monarchy. 】

Washington couldn't help but sigh. He couldn't imagine that this congenital disease had been with him for so many years and even triggered a civil war.

[Meliezu Louis XVI: I think you are too naive! Can a monarchy avoid the struggle between centralization and local power? 】

But at this moment, Louis woke them up at sixteen o'clock.

[Supreme Group Leader: Ridiculous, indeed naive! Haven’t you heard that the mountains are high and the emperor is far away? Imperial power and prime ministerial power are inevitable. The struggle between imperial power and local power, even if there is an emperor, can it be eliminated? 】

Zhu Houzhao suddenly felt that Lincoln and the others were naive for hoping that the monarchy would resolve the struggle between centralization and local power.

The Ming Dynasty and the previous dynasties of the Ming Dynasty have proven that this kind of thing is completely impossible to solve. As long as there is power, there will be fights.

[Meixuanzong Jackson: Indeed, we are naive... So, this civil war is bound to break out, right? 】

Jackson has vaguely realized that there is no way to escape and it seems that the only option is to fight.

There is a real battle between the federal and local governments.

Moreover, if the Federation wants to continue to rule the local area, it must win in this civil war.

Otherwise, in future countries, state power will definitely be greater than federal power!
Even if a country is finally established, the civil war will continue due to the resistance of the states... until many small countries with states as units appear on the continent of America.

[Mercy Lincoln: Maybe...probably! Anyway, my appointment set off all this. The main reason is the third point, the dispute between industry and agriculture! The question of slavery and abolition. 】

[American Taizu Washington: Abolition of Slavery? It has been almost 90 years since the founding of the country, but slavery has not yet been abolished? A war is going to start because of the abolition of slavery? 】

As soon as this topic came up, Washington was somewhat familiar with it. After all, he himself was a farmer and he also had his own slaves.

There are so many black slaves in the entire country, which is always a hidden danger, especially since they have written equality into the constitution...

While we pursue democracy, equality and progress, we still have feudal slavery. Naturally, there is a considerable sense of separation.

Of course, the hidden truth here... is the dispute between agriculture and industry!

Southern farmers needed slaves for agricultural production, while northern handicrafts were replaced by machines and did not require slaves. At the beginning of the founding of the country, this contradiction was not yet acute.

However, with the advent of the Industrial Revolution, and the United States as a country as a whole, the tariff design was unable to benefit both industry and agriculture.

High tariffs protect domestic handicrafts and industrial development from being crushed by foreign products.

However, high tariffs also cause agricultural products to be exported to high tariffs by others, thus damaging farmers' real money. Naturally, they will be resisted by the South, because they really have a cow.

[ Mercer Lincoln: It is true, Mr. Washington. It was easy for you to free the slaves on your estate after you retired, but... when it comes to us, the abolition of slavery has become an unavoidable issue. Previously, our United States was still half Half of the slave states were abolitionist states, and they were clearly divided! However, I didn't expect it to trigger a civil war. 】

It really looks more and more like it.

Abolition of slavery led to war.

At this time, Zhu Houzhao thought of an eternal figure.

[Supreme Group Leader: Haha, it doesn’t matter if the abolition of slavery caused a war. Some people also caused the country to perish because of the abolition of slavery, and their heads were even played with for hundreds of years! 】

The temple name is indeed that of the ancestor, and there are similarities here.

Yes, the guy Zhu Houzhao mentioned who lost his country because of the abolition of slavery was the ancient enemy of Emperor Guangwu, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty - the eternal figure Wang Mang!
At the beginning, this guy also called for the abolition of slaves and slaves, which indirectly led to the destruction of the new dynasty, and finally made Liu Xiu, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, famous throughout the ages!
