I, Zhu Houzhao, join the US imperialist chat group

Chapter 288 Zhu Houzhao: Our ancestors’ craftsmanship cannot be lost! America needs a big one!
"Give us an explanation!"

“Stop the war!”

“Stop the war!”

On Kensington Street in Philadelphia, following the parade of thousands of people, Zhu Houzhao, Xu Pengju and Wang Shouren all had novel experiences.

"Jackson, this is what you call a protest march?"

Being there, feeling the atmosphere of the free America and occasionally shouting a few words, Zhu Houzhao also understood their protest march, and at the same time looked at the surrounding police with caution: "Your court didn't send people to suppress them, but instead sent people to guard and watch them protest? We won't be in danger, right?"

"There usually aren't any parades like this. Besides, Philadelphia has one, and I think there are many in other cities as well. Besides, dealing with parades right now isn't a top priority for state governments. They should still be worrying about Lincoln's surrender."

Jackson introduced in a relaxed manner: "Also, they usually go back home at night. They will only come over if there is nothing else to do the next day."

Jefferson naturally understood these routines. There was no other way. He was experienced in this kind of mass work and handled it quite skillfully.

"Will you go home and come back the next day?"

"If they don't get an answer, they won't do something? Like burning, killing, looting, robbing the rich and giving to the poor?"

Zhu Houzhao was a little surprised for a moment. How could there be such an obedient rebel? This was somewhat contrary to his understanding.

"They will burn things... As for causing casualties, it won't be that serious... General Xiao Zhu, our side is different from yours. Their demonstrations are just some kind of political demands or requests. If we agree to them, they will disperse."

"Your kind... is too extreme."

Jackson's face shuddered, and then he realized that Zhu Houzhao and the others were different. At the same time, looking at Zhu Houzhao's expression, he had a bad premonition.

"Extreme? Isn't this the proper step in a rebellion?"

Zhu Houzhao looked at the parade with his eyes darting around. He was worrying about how to attack New York tomorrow and give the American people a huge shock. After all, he only now realized the size of the city of Philadelphia. Philadelphia has a population of 500,000 to 600,000, and New York also has a population of 700,000 to 800,000.

Even if their team of two thousand people relied on the advantage of weapons, it was obviously just a drop in the bucket to deal with a super large city with a population of seven or eight hundred thousand.

"So...if we go to New York tomorrow..."

"If we can make good use of them, we can even directly cause more people to riot!"

"If we raise our arms and start a rebellion, do you think they will follow us to destroy the city and burn it down? Even if we kill the congressmen first... and then we can say, 'The Heaven is dead, and the Yellow Heaven shall rise...'"

Zhu Houzhao's eyes unconsciously showed a hint of heat, and his whole body began to tremble.

This is America, not their Ming Dynasty.

He now has no psychological burden at all to bring them some shock of the Eastern uprising. What's the point of just marching and protesting? He has to open the door to a new world for them.

At the same time, rebellion! Zhu Houzhao did not want to miss this once-in-a-lifetime experience.

The traditional craftsmanship left to him by Zhu Yuanzhang cannot be lost.

"General Xiao Zhu, please don't... I feel that the most we can do is occupy their city hall, burn it down, or force the state legislators to sign a ceasefire agreement. Is that enough?"

Seeing Zhu Houzhao like this, Jackson was scared.

This is his country after all.

"No, no, no... Just occupying the city hall and forcing them to sign an agreement is not enough!"

"Jackson, this is no longer your America, but Lincoln's America... Have you forgotten what your country's biggest problem is? Have you forgotten what Cleveland hates the most! Consortium! Aristocratic families! Your idea is simply not feasible! If Lincoln really came to power, he would still have to face these aristocratic families... America might still be the same America as before, and some people might even assassinate Lincoln..."

"So... our rebellion should either be non-starter or it should be thorough, completely clearing out some of the aristocratic families and giving Lincoln a truly new America! What's the point of forcing them to sign? Is the rebellion only halfway started?"

If you want to play, of course you want to play the biggest one. Zhu Houzhao instead comforted Jackson.

Jackson was silent. Zhu Houzhao's ideas gave him a huge shock.

"General Xiao Zhu, I think... it's best to talk to President Lincoln about this matter... If we deal with all the families and consortiums in New York in the name of Lincoln, other American consortium families will organize to resist Lincoln, which will increase the difficulty for him to unify the North and the South. This situation will also cause merchant families to flee New York on a large scale..."

Although Jackson was tempted, he also foresaw the worse consequences that this extreme approach would lead to.

"Escape!? How can they escape! Your ports and major transportation routes have been blocked. They can escape... but... leave all their property behind! As for resistance, how many troops do you American aristocratic families have?" Zhu Houzhao said disdainfully.

"Also... we don't have to tell Lincoln at all! We don't have to use the banner of the Lincoln Alliance. We can completely represent a third party. We are just bandits! We specialize in robbing wealthy businessmen! And after we've accomplished all this, we'll let Lincoln take over these wealthy businessmen and noble families under his banner!"

"Tell me, will they be grateful to Lincoln then?"

When it comes to rebellion, Jackson is clearly no match for Zhu Houzhao, as he comes up with one trick after another.

"Is it still possible to do this?"

Jackson was completely stunned. Zhu Houzhao's understanding and action completely opened the door to a new world for him.

"Why not? We will be the bandits and Lincoln will be the king's army! Isn't there a shortage of factories in the south of Lincoln? Our riots can force these factories to move south!"

"Tsk tsk... This is simply the perfect way!"

"Haha... I want to tell His Majesty! His Majesty must have the same idea!"

"President Jackson, please think about it carefully. I feel that only by doing this... can we increase the contribution of our aid mission!"

The more Zhu Houzhao thought about it, the more excited he became. The more he thought about it, the greater the potential he seemed to have, so he immediately ran over to the side in a pretentious manner to find Xu Pengju and Wang Shouren.

Jackson was thrown into the parade by the wind.

"Wang Shouren! Now... I have a mission for you! Find out why these people are protesting, whether they can rebel, and what else they are dissatisfied with America besides being dissatisfied with Lincoln's fate..."

"This general has discussed with Jackson and decided to launch a massive uprising in America!"

Zhu Houzhao found Wang Shouren and assigned him the task directly.

"uprising?"

Xu Pengju and Wang Shouren were both confused, so Zhu Houzhao repeated what he had said to Jackson.

"Fun! A'shou! Your idea is really great! I'll discuss it with Jackson right away..." Xu Pengju's eyes lit up and he went straight to find Jackson.

"Your Majesty, is this really okay?"

Wang Shouren looked at the American people around him with some concern, and hesitated, "Will the American rebellion not cause greater casualties?"

He is indeed a saint, and he also has some compassion for the world.

"Wang Shouren, you are wrong! We are here to help Lincoln and the future people of America truly eliminate all conflicts in one fell swoop!"

"A long passage is worse than a short pain!"

"Besides, these are Americans, not the people of the Ming Dynasty! Aren't the people of the Ming Dynasty also suffering now? Just go and execute the order, and learn more about their difficulties and demands! I want it tonight. The more we know, the better we can tailor a counter-measure package for the Americans!"

"Hoo! Yes, General!"

This is indeed the truth. It is better to suffer a short pain than a long one. Zhu Houzhao is still doing a good thing.

Zhu Houzhao persuaded Wang Shouren, so Wang Shouren also pulled the American soldiers around him and began to go deep into the parade, consulting each marcher about their real demands and the oppression they had suffered.

Zhu Houzhao also joined decisively, and took this opportunity to truly understand the real needs of the American people.

After the parade, Zhu Houzhao, Wang Shouren and others had already understood the oppression suffered by the American people.

……

"The situation is very clear!"

"President Jackson, we are under the order of His Majesty... and have basically figured out the demands of these citizens who are marching."

"Their lives and work are very depressing now! Especially... many factory owners simply don't treat them as human beings, giving them a lot of work but only a little pay!"

"They even threatened them that if they didn't work hard, they would be sent to the battlefield!"

"What these people want most now is to send their boss to the battlefield, or to make their boss lose everything and hang him on a tree!"

"Then, they also hate these corrupt officials in America..."

"So... based on the rebellion cases we had over there, the slogan we decided on is..."

At night, in a hotel in Philadelphia, Zhu Houzhao, Wang Shouren, Xu Pengju, Jackson and his staff rested and planned big things.

"Punish violent Americans, kill congressmen, divide the dollars, are congressmen bosses any species! Please translate it into your language... This is our slogan! We will enter New York tomorrow, keep our troops in place, find out their parade team, find a few worker leaders, and then give them weapons... If they don't dare to take action, we will take action..."

"After we start... we'll arrest the congressmen first! Then we'll raid the homes of those bosses and divide up their money..."

Based on the research questions and demands, Zhu Houzhao gave the final slogan for the rebellion. He didn't know that he would inadvertently lead a class struggle.

"This...is this really possible?" Jackson was shocked by Zhu Houzhao and their quick execution.

In just a few hours, the route and path of rebellion were decided.

"There's nothing impossible! If President Jackson feels it's not safe... we can even experiment in Philadelphia first. Anyway, we have met several leaders this afternoon. We can experiment here first and then go to New York." Zhu Houzhao immediately gave a backup plan.

New York is not a must-go.

It would be even more rewarding to launch a massive American uprising from Philadelphia.

"This is even more shocking than Shays' Rebellion back then... No, it's the Third War of Independence. President, is this really a good idea? We in America are already in the midst of a civil war, what if there are more uprisings everywhere?" Jackson's staff were all frightened.

Zhu Houzhao's generous investment expanded his three views.

"General Xiao Zhu, Your Majesty Xiao Zhu... let me think about it..."

To be honest, Jackson was afraid of such a radical plan, especially since the precedent of killing congressmen for dollars had never appeared since the founding of the United States. He really had no idea what to do.

Zhu Houzhao and Xu Pengju did not force Jackson. Anyway... they had made up their minds that if Jackson refused to do it, they would do it themselves.

They have even less psychological burden.

Of course, it would be great if Jackson and the others cooperated. After all, they are unfamiliar with the place and have different skin colors and faces. Even if they could rise up, they probably wouldn't achieve the desired effect.

"How about we... go to New York first?"

Jackson thought about it for about ten minutes, and finally, whether he didn't want to see this scene or wanted to spend another night to think about it, he chose the third way.

"That's no problem... But, President Jackson, you can't tell President Lincoln secretly."

So, the original destination remained unchanged, still in New York, and Zhu Houzhao took the three of them away.

"President... I think... His Majesty the East is too crazy! Leading those workers to rebel... killing congressmen... This, this is almost the same as the French Revolution! But this is not the French Revolution, it is an action against businessmen and congressmen... If this gets out, the workers across America will obviously be encouraged..."

After Zhu Houzhao and his men left, Jackson's staff immediately realized how terrible the action Zhu Houzhao and his men were going to carry out was.

"This... is 30 years later... It's not our real America... To be honest, I am still a little tempted to take action against those greedy capitalists."

Jackson's words left his aide speechless. Only then did he realize that Jackson actually didn't have any good feelings towards those businessmen.

"Then President... have we agreed with His Majesty Xiao Zhu and his team's plan?" the aide asked tentatively.

"Why not... We have already created history, so why can't we be bolder and create more possibilities for America? When we go back, we still have to transform America. There are some problems that we can't just keep avoiding, right?"

Jackson stood up, looked at the night view of Philadelphia, and said, "Do you know how much this room costs? It's a full 150 dollars, and... all of them are wealthy businessmen. And the wages of those workers... are still at the level of our time."

“So, in this world, who is working hard and who is enjoying themselves?”

As a civilian president, Jackson didn't mind making a bold move.

At the same time, he was also a little surprised. This bold idea was inspired by the ancient Eastern emperor. For a moment, he didn't know who was more advanced and who was more backward.
