v3 Chapter 191： North and South spheres of influence
On December 24th and 25th, 1864, both sides remained peaceful and spent the two days of Christmas Eve and Christmas.
Just five days before the Emancipation Proclamation just promulgated by Lincoln came into effect, the North-South Battle officially started after the early hours of December 26.
At Fredericksburg, the Army of the Potomac suffered heavy casualties, while the Army of the Northern Virginia of the Confederate States of America in the south defeated the enemy in exchange for New Year's Day. Peace before arrival.
In this battle, the Northern Commonwealth suffered a total of 12,600 casualties, including more than 5,500 dead, 5,700 wounded, and 1,400 captured and missing.
The Confederate States suffered more than 5,500 total casualties, with only 600 dead, 4,000 wounded, and over 600 captured and missing.

London, England.
"At this point, the territory of the north and south is once again difficult to change.
The territories currently owned by the Southern Commonwealth of America are: 1 South Carolina, 2 Mississippi, 3 Florida, 4 Alabama, 4 Georgia, 6 Louisiana, 7 Texas, 8 Virginia, 9 Arkansas State, 10 Tennessee, 11 North Carolina, 12 Missouri, 13 Kentucky.
And the northern states of the Commonwealth of America: 1 Minnesota, 2 Vermont, 3 New Hampshire, 4 Massachusetts, 5 Connecticut, 6 Rhode Island, 7 New York, 8 Pennsylvania, 9 West Virginia, 10 Maryland, 11 Delaware, 12 Kentucky, 13 Ohio, 14 Indiana, 15 Illinois, 16 Missouri, 17 Kansas, 18 Iowa, 19 Wisconsin, 20 Michigan, 21. New Jersey”
British Foreign Secretary Russell has just been summoned to Buckingham Palace by Queen Victoria.
Inside, Prime Minister Viscount Palmerston and Prince Edward, Crown Prince of the United Kingdom, were already there.
As soon as he sat down, he began to be asked about the situation on the other side of the United States, so he chose to analyze the current North and South sites of the United States first.
"The west has now become the target of both sides. Can our British Empire take advantage of the fisherman's practice of profiting so that we can get some benefits in their west?"
Prince Edward couldn't help but ask, since he was rejected by Alexandra and married directly to King William IV of the Netherlands last year, this has angered the most powerful crown prince in the world today, although Several times he instigated the Queen and the Prime Minister to exert various pressures on the Netherlands, but he was very happy when he saw that the Netherlands was attacked and defeated by Portugal in West Africa.
When Denmark was attacked by the German Confederacy some time ago, he was even inexplicably happy, apparently because he secretly hated Denmark for not choosing to marry the powerful British Empire and chose the Netherlands.
In other words, although the Netherlands later turned things around and won the victory, after these two venting with the help of others, the hatred of Prince Edward actually decreased.
Therefore, Queen Victoria only recently allowed him to participate in more national governance, just like the British policy of the Schleswig War formulated some time ago, the Queen also brought him to this American conference.
"Difficult" Russell said: "Although the United States is now directly and deliberately divided by various countries, the North is very helpless, but it is forced to accept it reluctantly, but Lincoln did not want to bear the reputation of being a divided country, so he was struggling. It's just that, it can be said that he is trying his best to reduce the loss of turf.
Davis in the south is almost the same as being able to account for one more, but he doesn't value it that much.
But Lincoln is different. His reputation has been damaged. In terms of future positioning, if the West is occupied by the British, it will definitely be unacceptable to him. Therefore, the northern and southern fronts of the two sides can now stop the evenly matched battle. , but Lincoln was ambitious for the West.
Especially the guy Seward, who represents the big consortium and supports the government, he, the secretary of state, has never forgotten to lead the American consortium westward."
It was precisely because of his strategy of leading the industrial conglomerate westward that the southern slave plantation owners who also wanted to develop the southern model in the west were dissatisfied, and the war broke out.
Therefore, the fall of the United Kingdom may actually cause the North and the South to put aside their prejudices and share the same hatred against us, which is not worth the loss.”
"However, they are upright and hot," Prince Edward said reluctantly.
Viscount Palmerston said: "Everything is absolutely divided. The territory belongs to their family. They can quarrel and divide the family property internally, but if outsiders want to seize it, do you think their brothers will agree?"
When Prince Edward heard the words, he suddenly stopped speaking. Obviously, this analogy is appropriate and clear.
Seeing this, Russell said to the Queen, "Now the North and South seem to be fighting hotly in the eastern and central parts, but their eyes are on the western states."
......
Amsterdam, the Netherlands, is also being staged to discuss the situation in the United States.
Just after giving everyone the power distribution of the liberation of the north and the south.
Haysbert Fung: "That's how the southern states are distributed, let's talk about the west.
In the western part of the United States, Oregon and California are currently loyal to the Northern Commonwealth, while the southern Arizona region is biased towards the Confederate States.
As for the central Indiana area, it is unbiased.
The remaining New Mexico, Colorado, Utah, Nevada, Washington, Dun, Nebraska, Dakota, etc., are the places both North and South are currently fighting for.
Some time ago, the Indiana area was drawn by both sides and turned into a tug-of-war, where troops were almost dispatched to fight.
Therefore, various regions are now reluctant to easily decide which side to favor when the situation is uncertain. "
William IV asked Mark Rudd, Chief of the General Staff of the Ministry of Defence, "Then if we belong to the South, which part of the West would be the fastest and safest to attack?"
Mark Rude didn't even think about it stood up and pointed to the northern part of the western Arizona area:
"Here, if I were Robert Reed, it would be the easiest to go straight here, and at the same time, it would make the Arizona region easier to return to, and as long as it was won here, then for the Confederate countries, it would lead directly to the western Pacific Ocean. The coast is loyal to California, the Confederate state of the Confederacy. If Davis attacks there again, then the South will have the capital to truly compete with the North.
And here, it can be used as a springboard to attack many areas in the north, which is the best enclave in the United States.”
Including William IV, they all looked at the location of northern Arizona, let alone, where the west is close to California, the south is close to the Arizona region, and the east is close to the Confederate state of Texas.
The northeast is close to the Indiana region, and the north is the Colorado region, Utah region and Nevada region.
William IV smiled and said: "Looking at this map, I am interested in the future of the future development of the North and the South."
Add a sentence in my heart: Compared with the superpower United States that dominated the world in the previous life, I am more interested in the future of a divided United States!
