Time passed little by little, and after the sun was gradually setting, the White House in the United States, which had a history of more than 100 years (completed on November 1, 18oo, and was almost 116 years old by 1917), and was the center of the Great 6 Politics of North America, was shining in the afterglow of the setting sun.

At this moment, in Wilson's presidential office, Wilson, Thomas and others have reached a relatively unanimous decision on the question of when to send troops to Europe, that is, to send troops at the most appropriate time, at least ......... It will have to be said after the Entente and the Central Powers have fought to the death again.

It's just that when Wilson, Thomas and the others were still discussing in the office, they didn't know at this moment that they were just in a world where Yan Shao's history had changed.

From 19o3 to now, a full 14 years have passed, and in these 14 years, Yan Shao has done many things that can change the world, and indeed made many changes in the history of the world. For example, Yuan Shikai and Cai Ye, who should have died in 1916, were in their old home at this time (there was no stimulation of abdication, and their health was better than in history), and although Cai Ye's body was worse than ordinary people, it was barely called healthy, and even on the Western Front in Europe, with the help of Liu Guangyuan and Wu Peifu and others, he commanded more than 500,000 soldiers of the expeditionary force, fought fiercely with the Germans, and even because of the victory of Verdun, it was called ' by many people in the newspapers. The Hero of Verdun', his camp was full of medals that the French had given him, enough to crush him to death, although his face was often a little pale and his body was a little weak because of the sequelae of tuberculosis, and he even received the title of 'Sick Army God', but it was much stronger than the death of a German quack doctor in November 1916 due to a misdiagnosis by a German quack...

Although it was introduced earlier. But here is still an introduction, in history, Cai Ye was widely spread because of the rumors with Xiao Fengxian, so after suffering from tuberculosis, he was misdiagnosed as syphilis by German quacks, and was treated with a more toxic and special method for syphilis, which resulted in the complete deterioration of Cai's originally good body. In the end, although he changed to other ways of treatment, it was too late, but in this era, even if Yan Shao didn't know about the German quack, he obviously wouldn't think that Cai Yi would suffer from syphilis, after all, he was not under house arrest by Yuan Shikai in Beijing. Cai Ye did not have the opportunity to contact Xiao Fengxian Sheng at all, let alone go to the Bada Hutong to look for flowers and ask willows, and ordinary doctors certainly did not think that Cai Ye would suffer from syphilis...

And that Song Jiaoren, who should have died a long time ago...

Although it is not clear who killed him in history, in the case that Sun Yat-sen was expelled from China early and Yuan Shikai was also forced to go into the wilderness, although he was hated by many people in the position of minister of clean government, Song Jiaoren did a very energetic job under the protection of Yan Shao. Unlike later generations, as a pure idealist and politician, he had already died at the gunpoint of others before he could heal this already sick country―――――― although Yan Shao did not feel that without him, Song Jiaoren alone could save the country, after all, history has proved that it is difficult for idealists to succeed...

Plus the replacement of Beiyang by the National Socialist Party, the early reunification of China, the Battle of Shandong, etc., etc...

And that's just domestic. Not counting the series of changes born abroad, for example, many later auto giants, including Ford, were suppressed by Yan Shao, and most of them have even been acquired by Yan Shao and become a brand under Yushi Group...

By this time, history had changed dramatically, even the choices made after receiving the telegram.

――――――――――――――――――――

Historically, when the British received this telegram, they did not immediately deliver it to the U.S. government. Instead, they waited for a while and waited until they felt appropriate. On 19 January, German Foreign Minister A. Zimmermann sent a secret instruction to the German ambassador to Mexico, von Eckhardt, which included further requests. That is, Mexico urged Japan to join the Allies. The British naval spy agency intercepted and deciphered the code, and on February 24 handed over the copy to the U.S. ambassador to the United Kingdom, H. Page.

After getting the copy, Page immediately forwarded it to the U.S. State Department, and a full month had passed. However, the U.S. government did not immediately make it public, and it was only after a discussion that the State Department released it to the press on March 1.

There may be many reasons why Britain postponed sending the telegram to the United States in history, but one of the main ones should be that it hopes to wait for Germany to announce an unlimited submarine war, after all, the United States is very disgusted with German submarines, and sending the telegram to the United States after Germany announces it will undoubtedly arouse the indignation of the United States against Germany...

As for why the telegram was not delivered to the United States on the day after the announcement of the unrestricted submarine war in Germany? Although this had the same effect, it was clear that Britain had deliberately waited for the Germans to announce it before informing the Americans......... Although everyone knows that Britain did do it on purpose, but postpone it a little, after all, it will look better on the face...

I have to say that Britain played quite beautifully, in front of the cruise ship was stimulated by German submarines and Germany's unrestricted submarine warfare again, and behind was the new stimulation of Zimmermann's secret telegram, which caused a wave of anger in the United States, and the declaration of war on Germany became a natural thing―――――― the content of the secret telegram was that if Germany and the United States broke out into war, Germany would form a defensive alliance with Mexico, and Mexico would be able to reconquer the lost territory, that is, New Mexico, In places like Texas and Arizona, the United States is clearly unlikely to tolerate such content.

It should be noted that Mexicans also seem to find the contents of this telegram somewhat unreliable, because trying to regain lost territory would inevitably lead Mexico to war with the more militarily powerful United States, and whether or not Germany was really that generous, its financial support would still be almost worthless, and Mexico would not be able to use that financial support to acquire weapons and other military hardware. After all, the United States is the only large-scale arms manufacturer in North and South America, and the Royal Navy's long-term control of the Atlantic sea route has prevented Germany from providing enough weapons and military hardware to allow Mexico to regain lost territory. Moreover, even if Mexico succeeds in repairing its lost territory, accommodating or appeasing the local English-speaking population will be a severe and difficult test.

The most important thing is that even while the Mexicans were still thinking about it, the telegram was published by the Americans. This shows that the Americans have understood what is on the telegram and will definitely be on guard against Mexico on the border, and the possibility of a surprise attack is no longer possible.

So after some consideration, the Mexican government finally rejected the proposal―――――― it should be noted that the United States had already declared war on Germany at that time, because Mexico refused on April 16.

The United States, on the other hand, formally declared war on Germany on April 6 after a month of preparation. However, the United States declared war on Austria-Hungary much later. Eight months later, on December 7th...

Of course, none of this matters...

One of the main reasons why the United States is keen to enter the war is to recover costs. In this war, the United States sold a lot of arms, and the Allies paid countless credits to the United States, if the Allies collapsed. Even if they win, it is clear that the Allies will not be able to take on this debt...

Again, the United States owed Britain 400 million pounds before the war, and Britain owed the United States 800 million pounds or 1.2 billion pounds after the war, which is equivalent to the fiscal revenue of the United States in the past ten years.

If the U.S. government fails to get the money back in the end, it will not only lose a lot of money. I am afraid that even the domestic businessmen will go bankrupt one by one, and it can be said that the United States and the Entente have already prospered and lost both.

Of course, in addition to this, there is also the point of picking up cheap.

After all, Britain and France lost both sides of the Western Front with Germany, and what they lacked at this time was only the last straw that broke the camel's back, and with the size of the United States, it was not a straw. No one dared to deny even the other camel, not to mention that the industrial strength of the United States was not much different from that of the great powers that participated in the war this time.

If in the end the United States chooses to side with the Entente, even if it cannot help the Entente to achieve victory, I am afraid it will not be far behind...

――――――――――――――――――――――

This time, however, things turned out to be a little different from history.

Historically, since the Western Front was mainly played against England, France and Germany, the two sides could be said to have lost both, but in this world. On the Western Front, however, there was such a special existence as the Expeditionary Force. Half a million Chinese expeditionary forces? It seems that there is a big gap with the size of the troops of Britain, France, Germany and other countries in the European battlefield, and even the Italians seem to be a little incomparable, after all, even the Italians have more than a million casualties on the Italian battlefield, but in fact, these 500,000 troops are pure combat troops. There is no need to be like Britain, France and Italy, and the division of troops to garrison various places will naturally become a large force, not to mention that the national government has also promised to send 800,000 expeditionary forces.

At present, although more than 100,000 troops have been dispersed from the Middle East, at least nearly 200,000 troops will arrive in Europe, which is equivalent to more than 600,000. In addition, the equipment of the expeditionary force is very good, in addition to the heavy artillery, the rest of the A and B divisions are even better than the first-class troops of Britain and France, and even the C division, which is cannon fodder, is generally equipped with Maxim heavy machine guns and new pump-action shotguns, which are far more powerful than ordinary colonial troops.

Such a force, looking at Europe, no one will underestimate it.

As a result, Britain, France and Germany were evenly matched in history, but now with the help of the expeditionary force, the coalition forces have slightly overwhelmed the Allies on the Western Front.

Although the situation of the Russians on the Eastern Front seems to be somewhat dangerous, neither the British nor the French, nor the Russians nor the Americans actually know much about it.

In addition, the Americans also have the idea of taking this opportunity to let the European powers fight to the death, so they naturally hope to delay it for some time. Otherwise, if they come forward now, I am afraid that Britain and France will not have the intention of starting a war with the United States, but plan to wait for reinforcements from across the ocean to arrive. However, after the arrival of spring, it is precisely the most suitable season for war, if Britain and France really temporarily ceased war with Germany, and then waited for American reinforcements, then ............... This is absolutely a regrettable thing for the ill-intentioned United States.

That's right, according to the Germans' estimates, it will indeed take a year for the United States to fully reinforce Europe, which is why the Germans dare to let go of their hands and feet for an 'unrestricted submarine war'. But in fact, history began with the declaration of war on Germany in April. It took the Americans just over two months to send an expeditionary force to Europe, of course, this is only a nominal expeditionary force, probably similar to the original Chinese expeditionary force, and maybe even worse, like the vanguard, and the same as the original expeditionary force. There is no way to jump into the war right away...

On June 25, the first American troops arrived in France as the 'American Expeditionary Force'. However, until January, American soldiers did not enter the trenches on the scale of divisional troops. These troops still need to be trained and equipped to be effective, and it will take several months before they can achieve substantial combat effectiveness, so the US military at this time is only assigned support missions. But that aside. The timely arrival of the U.S. troops gave the Entente time to breathe and restore their declining morale.

But now, Americans naturally don't need to be so anxious, but just need to sit next to them and watch the tiger fight.

Moreover, the objects of the Americans' desire to shed blood, in addition to the European powers, this time also included China.

Because for the United States, China is also a potential threat. Although relations between China and the United States are still very good on the surface. Today's U.S. President Wilson and the previous two presidents have both received Yan Shao's support, but when it comes to practical interests, I am afraid that it is difficult to have any friendship with each other―――――― not to mention that they are only reciprocal relations related to interests...

The geographical location of the United States is good, there are two oceans on both sides, Canada in the north is not the slightest threat, and Mexico in the south is somewhat threatening, but under the deliberate control of the US government, it has always maintained a relatively chaotic situation.

Compared to other countries surrounded by powerful countries. The geography of the United States has never been better. However, the two oceans on both sides certainly bring distance security to the United States, but on the other hand, they also put the United States under pressure from two directions.

The United States today is not like the future generations, and its annual military spending is even about the same as that of all countries from second place to bottom combined, accounting for nearly half of the world's military spending. Such a formidable military force, even if there is a threat from both sides at the same time. The United States should not be too worried.

Especially in the twentieth century, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, the security situation in the United States has never been better, especially in the face of maritime threats. In addition to the nuclear submarines of a few powerful countries that need to be worried, with a huge aircraft carrier fleet, even if the navies of all other countries are added together, they are by no means the opponents of the US Navy, and even half of the strength of the US Navy may not be as good as...

In this way, the United States naturally does not have to worry, and even some attacks from the Middle East are only minor troubles, and they cannot hurt the foundation of the United States at all.

But in this era, the U.S. Navy is strong, but the navies of Britain and Germany will only be stronger than the United States.

The only trouble is Japan in the Far East, but the Americans have the Chinese card to use.

As long as China is the card, the United States can use China to contain Japan and ensure that Japan cannot pose any threat to the United States...

It is precisely because of this that the U.S. government has given considerable support to the Seventh Five-Year Plan and other projects in the hope that China can play this role well.

But who would have thought that China has not only completed this task, but also done it very well.

Originally, even after mobilization, the Japanese Sixth Army, which had only 500,000 people, suffered more than 100,000 casualties in the Shandong Campaign, and the navy sank more than half of its main ships.

On the other hand, in the Battle of Shandong, the Chinese government played a brilliant role, although the navy suffered some losses, but compared with the Japanese, it can be said that many Japanese sunken capital ships were salvaged from Longkou Bay after the Battle of Shandong, and continued to be used after repair, including even the King Kong, a new type of battle cruiser that even the US Navy was somewhat covetous.

The losses of the 6th Army were a little larger, but they were still a victory compared to Japan.

In addition, taking advantage of this war, Yan Shao took the opportunity to get back the originally lost rights and interests in the Northeast and some other things, and the situation that was originally strong and weak was suddenly reversed.

In addition, at this time, Europe was in full swing, and there was no time to take care of the Far East, and Japan was hit hard in Shandong.

If you continue to follow the current degree. In five years, at most, ten years, China will be able to become one of the great powers, and its threat will be much greater than that of Japan. After all, as an island country, Japan's foundation is too poor compared to China.

Especially after the expeditionary force arrived in Europe and participated in the two battles of Verdun and the Somme, this proved that the combat capability of the squadron was in no way inferior to that of the European powers.

The U.S. government quickly reversed its position. The relationship between the two countries, which was originally quite lively, suddenly became cold...

In the end, there are indeed many potential conflicts between the two countries, such as the Philippines, which the United States inherited from Spain, and Guam, which it seized together...

Take 1917 as a point and look ahead. It can be seen that after the rise of every power, it will inevitably expand, and East Asia and Southeast Asia are originally China's traditional sphere of influence, and China's expansion in East Asia and Southeast Asia is almost inevitable.

It can even be said that the whole world has been almost divided among the great powers. For the rest, it seems that there is no need to say it explicitly...

Although some U.S. government officials have not immediately turned their minds due to the friendly relations in the past, it has become the consensus of many high-level U.S. government officials to impose some restrictions on China, and if they can intervene in this war later, China will lose more in Europe......... Even if it's just one or two thousand people, that's not bad...

The only thing Americans regret now is that China is far away in Europe. They can't bring China closer to this mess, otherwise―――――― just thinking about it, Americans think it's a little beautiful...

――――――――――――――――――――――――

"Well, do you all agree?" Wilson asked with a grim face, looking at everyone present.

Of course, he can't be as arbitrary as Yan Shao when it comes to such a heavy matter, so he can only confirm it before confirming it.

The crowd in the office sank in response to Wilson's questioning. Seeing this, Wilson didn't say anything more, just nodded. "Since everyone has no opinion, then I won't say much. I'll keep this telegram down and take it out when the time is right..."

After speaking, Wilson looked at the people in the office, and almost all the people in the office at this moment can be said to be high-level members of the U.S. government, including him, the president, the vice president, the secretary of state, and several ministers, etc., it can be said that most of the high-level people in the entire United States are already sitting here at this moment...

After making sure again that there was no objection, Wilson put the telegram away and set it aside, intending to keep it in a safe place later.

This was a very useful tool for Wilson.

No way, although Wilson himself is not against sending troops to Europe, the opposition on the side of Congress should not be too loud......... If Congress is against it, I'm afraid there will be some things about sending troops...

Historically, during World War II, although the United States had already semi-substantially intervened in the war in Europe, everyone knew that it was only a matter of time before it formally participated in the war, but in the end, it only officially entered the war after Pearl Harbor was bombed by the Japanese.

So Wilson had to have an excuse, and this telegram was obviously a very good excuse...

As long as there is this telegram, even those guys in Congress will not oppose sending troops to Europe to punish Germany, so, as his advisers said, pick the right time, one that will not cost them too much, and at the same time will give them good benefits...

But before that, the US Secretary of War Newton, who had been sitting on the sidelines? D. Baker muttered for a moment before speaking.

"Do you want to inform the Mexicans about this first..."

"Notify the Mexicans?" Hearing Baker's words (called Newton somewhat disagreeable), Secretary of State Robert? Lansing couldn't help but frown. "Why should you inform them, wouldn't you let them know if you did..."

"Just to let them know...", the chief of staff of the US 6th Army, Xiu? Scott interjected, this is an old man who is already a lot of age, with a pinch of white beard on his lips, before 19o3, the military commander of the 6th Army was the commander-in-chief of the 6th Army of the United States, but after that, it was obviously not, and the chief of staff of the 6th Army was under the direct leadership of the Secretary of War. In charge of the affairs of the 6th Army and the external duties of the auxiliary minister, this time the matter is very critical, so Newton? D. Baker brought him with him, and in fact, Wilson did need to listen to some professionals, after all, it was also about the war, if it was left to the fiddling of the elected government officials. I'm afraid it's a little bit...

Got up from his seat, although Xiu? Scott's military rank is only major general, but he still looks straight at everyone present. "Please don't forget that this telegram is not just about whether or not we want to get involved in this war, but also about one more important thing, and that is the Mexicans......... The Germans sent this telegram to Mexico. It's so that Mexico can contain us from the south, and what they promise is the territory that the Mexicans crave so much, not to mention that for some reason, I'm afraid the Mexicans really want some people to come forward and teach us a lesson, and even, they really want to be able to teach us a lesson with their own hands..." Scott couldn't help but sneer.

And to hear Xiu? Scott's words. Wilson and the others present showed a slightly embarrassed look on their faces.

――――――――――――――――――――

What did Yan Shao start with? At the beginning, I relied on those novels, but to be honest, writing novels is really profitable, but if you want to be rich enough to become the queen of England like J?K. Rowling in later generations, I am afraid it is unlikely that she will become the queen of England with a Harry Potter, first, because of the lack of cooperation of the general environment. Two............... After all, the genders are different, you must know that Yan Shao is rare, even if he cuts himself, he can't become a rich woman.

As for the rich men, think about the Rockefeller gang who are engaged in oil, the money they get in one day is enough for Yan Shao to struggle for many years...

There are only two that really made Yan Shao start. One is Ming, for example, the series of Xiao Ming, one is 20,000, and one is 30,000. A fifty thousand, a lot of Xiao Ming adds up to a lot of money, and for example, the filament sold to Edison, that time can make a lot of money.

And after that, it was another fund that completely made Yan Shao start a business.

Petroleum...

With the money earned from selling filament, after buying a piece of land in Tampico, Mexico, it was with the oil produced in this land that Yan Shao finally got enough money to support him in Anhui, before that, although Yan Shao also had a lot of money in his hands, but the dumping of the Japanese in Anhui and other places alone had made Yan Shao a little unable to hold on, and with the agreement reached between the current oil and Rockefeller, Yan Shao not only survived that time, but even took this opportunity to hit Japan's foreign bank in Shanghai...

It can be said that oil has a great contribution to Yan Shao's start in Anhui, of course, to this day, banks, automobiles and other industries have helped Yan Shao more than oil, and Tampico's interests are not much in Yan Shao's eyes, but every time he talks about his own business, Yan Shao still reads the word oil in his heart.

And repair? The reason why Scott sneered, Wilson and his face looked more embarrassed, also has a lot to do with the word oil.

I remember saying that before Mexico had a large amount of oil, Mexico itself did not tax things underground, such as oil, so at the beginning, neither Yan Shao nor Rockefeller did not need to pay taxes to Mexico for oil―――――― think about how many billions of businesses a year, how much money does Mexico make if you don't need to pay taxes? Yan Shao: How much more money can they make?

At that time, the financial revenue of the great powers such as Britain and France was only more than 100 million pounds a year, which was definitely not a small amount...

As a result, the Mexican government began to think about how to nationalize the oil, but this was tantamount to stealing the tiger's mouth, and neither the U.S. government nor the oil dealers could tolerate such behavior, so in 1911, President Dias, the first Mexican president to be overthrown because of oil, was overthrown, and the years of turmoil began in Mexico. In Diaz's place, Madero came to power with the support of the United States, but after coming to power, Madero adopted a policy of protecting national industry.

Although he is the president of Mexico, in the final analysis, he is just a puppet supported by the United States to come to power, and it is conceivable what the result of the puppet will be if he does not know each other, so the US government and American oil companies have subverted him.

By July 1914, almost the start of World War I, Carranza, supported by the United States, came to power. But according to the intelligence received by the US government, under the auspices of Carranza. The Mexican government is in the process of introducing a new constitution and intends to adopt guò in the coming days (historically February 5, 1917, i.e. a few days later). This was a turning point in the history of Mexico's oil industry, as the new constitution clearly declared that the State was the absolute owner of all of Mexico's mineral resources, phosphates, petroleum and hydrocarbons; The Government has the right to confiscate any land that it deems to be detrimental to the interests of the State. Foreigners are not allowed to own land within 1oo km of the Mexican border and 5o km of the coastline......

It is conceivable that if such a constitution is passed, the interests of Anglo-American oil companies in Mexico will be greatly damaged, so...

After having the experience of the previous two presidents. Although the British are now busy fighting the Germans in Europe, it is self-evident what the US government will do.

Therefore, if the new president does not want to be overthrown like his predecessor, or even his predecessor, the only thing he can do is to preemptively attack the United States with the support of Germany...

Although compared to the United States. Mexico is so small, which also makes this possibility very small, but Mexico is small, but the United States is only strong in industry, in fact, the standing army is not very strong, so if Mexico suddenly starts, it will be officially mobilized in the United States. And before mobilizing enough troops to cost Mexico, Mexico's own forces alone will be enough to make the United States uncomfortable...

――――――――――――――――――――

"So..."After a deep groan, Wilson looked at Xiu, who only had the rank of major general. Scott, with an inquiring look on his face.

"So, I think we should have some private communication with the Mexicans, so that they understand that we know about their connections with the Germans and that we are ready to take precautions, so that we can cut off the Mexicans' luck mentality..." Scott's expression darkened. "Actually. Before mobilization, our war capability was relatively weak, at least in terms of total strength, and it was definitely inferior to the powers that had now entered a state of war, and if the Mexicans really had the luck to attack us, before we had fully mobilized our industrial potential, I am afraid that ......... So a warning to the Mexicans is absolutely necessary..."

Hear Xiu? Scott's words, everyone in the audience nodded together. Thomas and the others also had a look of approval on their faces.

Indeed, if the Mexicans take a cold, I am afraid that the current strength of the United States alone will really be more uncomfortable.

Of course, in this way. They don't need to go to Europe to help, and they don't have to worry about their soldiers being drawn into the bloody wars of Europe. But if the Mexicans are really laissez-faire, I am afraid that the flames of war will burn to the United States, so that the losses of the United States may be greater than those of Europe, and even if the losses are not as great as those of Britain and France, they will be...

At least after the whole war, the only one who did not suffer losses was probably China―――――― of course, this refers to the participating countries, not the chaotic supporting countries...

――――――――――――――――――――

After adopting the repair? After Scott's opinion, Wilson kept the telegram given to him by the British down under the pretext that it was being discussed, and at the same time contacted the Mexicans and informed the Mexican government of the telegram.

Knowing that the Americans already knew the whole thing, Mexican President Carranza, who was still a little hands-on, really broke off this idea completely, after all, compared to the United States, Mexico is too small, if the Americans don't know about it, the Mexican government may still have some upper hand in the early stage, and hold on until Germany wins, but if the Americans know...

Whether or not he can gain the upper hand with a surprise attack is not clear to this Carranza...

It's just that...

Carranza is already implementing a new constitution, and if he doesn't do it and thinks about his predecessor and his predecessor, what will happen to him, Carranza knows what will happen to him, so although he dismisses the idea, but...

However, in order to ensure the security of the rear, the Americans made some promises to Carranza, such as acquiescing to the new constitution introduced by Carranza...

In China's parlance, this is a delaying tactic by the United States, using such a strategy to temporarily solve Mexico's problems, and then solve Europe's problems first, and when Europe's problems are solved, they can naturally go back and start to solve Mexico.

Unaware of this, Carranza received a promise from the Americans, and Carranza and many Mexicans cheered that they had finally won, and thus broke off the idea of an alliance with Germany once and for all.

It's just that...

In fact, in history, Carranza also fell for the United States' not very complicated strategy, as it is now, and the result is that in the end, he was overthrown and ousted by the US government like his predecessor and his predecessor...

On February 18, 1918, after the success of the new constitution, and taking advantage of the fact that the United States was already involved in the European war, Carranza issued an order in accordance with the new constitution: the rent of oil reserves, the royalties of mining areas, and the oil extracted from it were taxed.

This one, too, is aimed at those oil merchants.

What would have been said if this constitution had come out a few years earlier......... I am afraid that Yan Shao will have to pay taxes, because this constitution stipulates that the extracted oil must be taxed, unlike in the past, the Mexican government does not have much control over the underground resources.

This kind of constitution undoubtedly hurt the interests of American businessmen, but at this time, the United States was already deeply involved in the war in Europe, and it could not draw enough strength to solve Mexico's problems, so the US government could only support the policy of American oil merchants in Mexico to oppose the Mexican government.

And then...

When the First World War ended and the U.S. government was relieved, the Americans began to do some of the things they used to do...

Subversion...

In May 192o, Obregón staged a coup d'état that overthrew Carranza, and the Mexican president, who had recovered his oil interests during his tenure, followed in the path of his predecessors and predecessors.

However, when confronted with the U.S. government's demand that the new president repeal all the constitutions of 1917, the new president took measures that he flatly refused.

Truth be told, the president was a good president who kept Mexico in a relatively peaceful state during his tenure, but he was not recognized by the United States until the 1923 Cabrailli Conference, which pledged not to confiscate American oil companies.

And after he was re-elected in 1928, this poor fellow was assassinated...

As for who the killer is and who sent it, no one knows this...

――――――――――――――――――――

Overall, having settled the Mexican problem, the Americans thought they could finally sit on the Diaoyutai and watch the European powers and China, the newly rising powers, fight each other, and intend to wait until the war was almost underway before intervening at the right time...

The Americans' calculations are good, but it's a pity...

After all, there is still some deviation between the ideal and the reality...

Because it didn't take long for a revolution to take place in Russia that no one expected...

All of a sudden, the shape of the European battlefield suddenly changed dramatically, and considering the interests of the United States in Europe, Wilson and others could not sit still...

This revolution is known in history as the 'February Revolution'...
