Chapter 116 Commander-in-Chief of the Revolutionary Army, Clint; Lee!

Although I don't fight, this is probably the dawn before the war...

"Gentlemen! We are in a very bad situation now!" Lincoln once again summoned several of his "comrades-in-arms" in the party.

"I don't think there was any problem with the previous maritime combat plan!" As the Minister of War, Cameron was the first to jump out and say, "There must be traitors! Spy! They told the important news about the traitors!"

When he said this, Cameron still glanced at Chase with his eyes.

"What do you mean?!" How could Chase not be angry?

"Gentlemen!" Lincoln immediately came out to smooth things over. "What we need now is unity. I fully believe in Mr. Chase's loyalty!"

In fact, Chase's role is particularly important at this time, because he wants to negotiate with the British. You must know that it is not enough to have the Secretary of State, who is in charge of diplomacy. You must also take the Minister of Finance. The ultimate problem is just one word, money!

"It's really a surprise!" Secretary of State Sward, in fact, is the most conceited of these people. Just say that the Fort Sumter incident was messed up by this guy, otherwise there would be room for negotiation. "I really didn't expect that those rebels were so strong. Maybe we should deal with it seriously! In this way, Mr. Secretary of War, should you go back to Pennsylvania?"

Alas, what Sward said is embarrassing, because he is making a decision for the president. Of course, he has done this before, and the Secretary of State has a considerable power at this time, sometimes he is better than the president.

"You!" But when Cameron mentioned this to return to Pennsylvania, he was unhappy at the time.

The reason is very simple. Pennsylvania is next to New York. Isn’t it just that our Secretary of War should go back to Pennsylvania in person to supervise the war? The key is that Pennsylvania is originally Cameron’s territory, who will he go?

But the problem is that this is a war. If a war is not a good deal, what should I do if the Minister of War is honored?

"I agree!" Attorney General Best immediately came over and flipped through the cracks, "Mr. War Minister should go back in person, so as to encourage the morale of the whole state, everyone will unite against the enemy, and fight against the enemy together! Organize the militia and take back New York in one fell swoop!"

"You!" Cameron's nose was about to become pissed.

In fact, the reason for this is that Cameron is a bad person. There have been rumors before that he is not famous and said that he is, "there is nothing that he doesn't steal except the burning stove."

As a result, everyone worked together, and I couldn't feel it at the beginning, but gradually over time, everyone was sure who was good or bad. Cameron himself was old, and he was not good-looking, he was short and a shriveled old man, and he was annoyed by anyone watching it.

"..." But, seeing that his most solid comrades were like this, President Lincoln felt so uncomfortable. This was the period of suppressing the rebellion and saving the country. But they...ah~

But Lincoln had to speak, especially this proposal, "Mr. Cameron, I really need you to go there this time. The United States of America needs you! The people of the United States need you!"

"..." Cameron was almost cursing, 'I need nothing! You just want me to push the jar!' But after all, he is a high-ranking official, so vulgar is still not possible. "I. I want to calm down, but the Pennsylvania troops..."

Alas, this is easy to deal with. When it comes to the troops, Lincoln immediately continued.

"In this way, we try our best to send the troops from New York back. Now Major General McClellan has purged the army and his combat effectiveness has been improved. Since it is a New York rebellion, then the Sixth Regiment of the New York, the Fourteenth Regiment, the Twentieth Regiment, and the 19th and Twentieth Regiment of Maine, I think they are all good boys, and Colonel Alfred Wood of the 14th Regiment who was injured in the Battle of Manassas is also the younger brother of Mr. Fernando Wood."

Lincoln's trick was good. He sent New Yorkers back to New York and let them get their own place. And there was a high-ranking official...

"Isn't this good? I heard that Fernando Wood has surrendered!" Sward was well-informed.

"No, I believe Mr. Wood!" Lincoln was actually not allowed to believe it at this time.

"Okay!" Cameron couldn't say anything. If he didn't do this job, no one would do it. Moreover, if something big happened in New York, it would be absolutely impossible for Pennsylvania to be affected.

Just act as defending your country!

Therefore, the US Northern Federal Government sent ground troops to New York for the first time, which is a very important signal. So what are the revolutionary masses in New York doing now?

"In the name of God! In the will of the people! In the name of peace! All the staff of our Revolutionary Committee unanimously agreed to award Mr. Clint Li, the rank of Major General of the Democratic Revolutionary Army! He is the supreme commander of the Democratic Revolutionary Army!"

Fernando Wood, the former mayor of New York, is promulgating a revolutionary committee appointment, that is, Clint Lee is now the highest commander of the New York Revolution!

"Oh rooster!"

"God bless you Mr. Clint Lee!"

"I wish Mr. Clint Lee invincible!"

The announcement of this appointment was made with the New York City Government, and there was also a square in this place, just like San Francisco. Therefore, many citizens are gathered in this square, all of whom are revolutionary masses from the New York Revolution.

In fact, this appointment was caused by them. They sat quietly outside the city government and demonstrated... Anyway, they wanted Clint Li to be the top leader of the army.

In fact, the revolutionary committee at this time, namely Fernando Wood, Sumner, Thoreau, Emerson, Ferrederick Douglas, and others, now formed a group, which is the administrative authority at this time.

There is no way to do this. There must be such a department. Moreover, the team is full of celebrities and has a background. The key is that ordinary people can't do it.

But in fact, they objected to this appointment, because in this case, is Clint Lee too much power?

You know, this guy is a Chinese, not a white man, and he has been a variety of halos before, and now he still gives him military power completely?

"I, Clint. Li, take a swearing here!" Li Mengyang had already received this appointment. In fact, this thing was just a piece of paper in his eyes, but since it is legitimate now, let's take care of it, "I will dedicate my life to the great revolution!"

"Oh rooster!"

"marvelous!"

The revolutionary masses cheered and excited.

"I will use my life to defend the freedom and democracy of the people!"

"Clint Lee, we love you!"

"Mr. Clint, you are a saint!"

Li Mengyang shouted, and the people below shouted, and there were even those who worshipped him!

The glory at this time is definitely something that countless people cannot reach, but Li Mengyang also knew deeply that the crisis of losing his head was approaching one step closer. Power will bring about death, not to mention that the great revolution itself is full of intense and bloody!

But crisis, crisis, in Li Mengyang's eyes, this is a critical period with existing dangers and opportunities... (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, novels are better, updated and faster!
