"Hahaha……"

Guo Jinzhang laughed wildly for a while, and Li Asheng kept looking at him from the side, his eyes a little free and worried, which also made Guo Jinzhang's originally proud and excited laughter gradually weaken.

"What's wrong with you?" Guo Jinzhang asked.

"Jin Zhang, do you think...we won?" Li Asheng asked.

"You mean..."

"That's right." Before Guo Jinzhang finished speaking, Li Asheng nodded, "I was happy at the beginning these days. But... as soon as the negotiation was finished, I was thinking about what we should do in the future. As a result, the more I thought about it, the more I felt guilty..."

"Ashen," Guo Jinzhang sighed softly, "You are right, we didn't win."

"Americans really want to do something again?" Li Asheng asked.

"The possibility is no less than 80%." Guo Jinzhang replied.

"Haha..." Li Asheng took a deep breath and vomited heavily again, but this was not nervous, but instead letting go of his worries. "I just said, how could this American, suffer this loss so easily?"

"This is also the reason why I have to ask for a military station to be set up on the Pacific Railway." Guo Jinzhang said in a deep voice, "The military station is not affecting the overall situation. As long as the Americans are determined, it is just a blink of an eye to calm the military station. To have this military station, I actually want the Americans to rest assured and make them think that we don't want to fight anymore, but just want to defend..."

"I didn't want to fight again." Li Asheng sighed, "I've been frightened all day long..."

"If you don't fight, you will have to live a frightened life in the future." Guo Jinzhang said.

"I understand this principle." Li Asheng glanced at him, "I just don't know when this day will be the end."

"The Americans even gave us independent foreign autonomy. Why? On the surface, it is those officials who don't want to stay in our hands, want freedom, but don't regard us as their own people, and as forces independent of them, so they give this power. But looking deeper, is this independent foreign autonomy a normal right? Even the right to declare war... What is this? It's just about to be taken back. But how to take it back? Revising a contract? It's embarrassing to talk to us once, and they will lose people again?" Guo Jinzhang snorted coldly.

"Then you have to fight." Li Asheng continued.

"The Americans are not willing to give in." Guo Jinzhang sneered, "They feel that they have many people, strong industrial support, and famous generals, but they lose to a group of country bumpkins like us, so they are very dissatisfied. If they don't fight back and find this place, they won't feel good."

"It will be much more convenient for Americans to withdraw from Tangzhou," Li Asheng looked at Guo Jinzhang again. During the negotiations, Guo Jinzhang was alone in the Red Corps. Although everyone trusted this leader and knew that Guo Jinzhang would not harm everyone, he was really excited about the benefits that this negotiation earned for everyone. However, while he was excited, he was more puzzled. Guo Jinzhang knew that Americans had a great chance to fight again, why did he ask everyone to withdraw from Tangzhou? Could he still fight the Seattle Battle?

"It's really convenient for the Americans not to withdraw from Tangzhou." Guo Jinzhang understood Li Asheng's suspicion. Anyone with a little knowledge will know the disadvantages of the Red Corps withdrawing from Tangzhou again. It's simply waiting for the Americans to fight. Moreover, the mistakes made in Seattle have made, and the Americans will definitely not make it again. That means that if there is another war, the Americans are likely to be completely defeated in Tangzhou, or even in Seattle. But everything cannot be thought of from one aspect.

"Where can we go on this continent except Tangzhou?" Guo Jinzhang smiled bitterly, "Don't look at the Americans who Idaho and Utah I wanted at the beginning frightened them and their faces turned pale, but if I really occupied that area, it would be a big trouble."

"I also talked to Jian Wang... The Americans only need some effort to transport their troops to Southern California and then launch them together with the east. At that time, they will be attacked from the front and back. We have no other way except to hide in Rocky Mountain. But after entering Rocky Mountain, we will still be dead if we are ten thousand." Li Asheng said.

"That's right." Guo Jinzhang nodded, "The western states are indeed a little afraid of us. But after all, they are still Americans and whites. They are beaten to death by a group of yellow people, and they may still have a lot of hatred in their hearts. With the support of the American politics, the possibility of taking action is very high. No matter how bad they are, they have hundreds of thousands of people, and with the support of the army, even if they cannot win, it will be no problem to block us with the terrain."

"North Dakota and South Dakota are not good either. They are too close to the Great Lakes area you mentioned. It is an American industrial base with a dense population... The Americans don't let us be there, not because they are afraid that they will not be able to destroy us, but because they will suffer too much losses when dealing with us." Li Asheng said again.

"Not to mention Oklahoma, they are afraid that we will jump into the southern states, stir up the black people, and repeat the mistakes this time," Guo Jinzhang continued.

"So, there is only one Tangzhou left. Rocky Mountain is in the east, the sea is in the west, Canada is in the north, and Oregon, which has few people and many lands in the south. As long as we block this side, we will not run away and we will not cause any great losses to them." Li Asheng said.

"But the same is true, Tangzhou is remote, and the Americans want to take action, they still have to work hard to go on an expedition. This is one of them." Guo Jinzhang stretched out a finger, and then raised another one, "Second, we still have Alaska. Tangzhou is located in the northwest corner of the United States. It takes time for the Americans to come here. This skill is enough for tens of thousands of us to retreat there. If it really doesn't work, we can still retreat into Canada... There are not many people in the area adjacent to Canada and Tangzhou. With our strength, we can completely run rampant. But the Americans can't. Therefore, the back road is guaranteed."

"What if I retreat to Alaska? What should I do?" Li Asheng asked again, "It's snowy and ice there."

"Alaska has gold, and it's also a big golden vein." Guo Jinzhang smiled, "In this world, as long as there is gold, what can't be done? The Americans are still allowed to deal with the coastline of such a long Pacific Ocean? ... Many of our brothers are from Fujian, and they all know about the Japanese pirates in the Ming Dynasty. Let's give the leaders of Washington an American version of the Chinese gangsters to see how they deal with them."

"Is there a navy?" Li Asheng said with a wry smile.

"What are you afraid of with two broken and old warships?" Guo Jinzhang asked back.

"Will they not transfer new warships to come?" Li Asheng asked back.

"It's too late to transfer it." Guo Jinzhang snorted coldly, "If we call back, will we just mess around on the shore?... If we dare to plot against us, I will let him throw away half of the United States."

"Today you can also let them lose half of the United States, why not?" Li Asheng said curiously.

"Do you think I don't want it?" Guo Jinzhang sighed, "There is not enough time and there is no channel. If there is time and there is also channel, I would have contacted the British, French, and German, maybe even Spain would have hooked up together... Then, how happy it would be for everyone to divide the United States together? Even if we are the most vulnerable side, at least we can get a share of the pie. At worst, leave a war-torn United States, we will withdraw, and directly withdraw to Alaska, and let them white people pluck and play by themselves... Let's use Alah

Scar is a base, using gold to open the way, accumulate strength, and then killing the land, and still be able to bite a piece of North America. But in fact, this doesn't work. Not to mention that even if Britain and France go to war, they have to go through a long discussion first, and most people agree. It takes a long time. Even if they are moved, they can start immediately. The Americans are not a mud. Once the situation changes, they will change... At that time, a general mobilization of the whole nation can at least have an army of hundreds of thousands. How can we swallow it?"

"Kill the President and Secretary of State, as well as those ministers and parliamentarians, I don't believe they can still mobilize them." Li Asheng snorted coldly.

"That's it. But if we kill their president and secretary of state, our main force in Georgia will face Ramsey's more than 100,000 troops... After these battles, we have been captured, but they are enough to support a few big battles? Even if Ramsey only consumes it, it can consume us to death." Guo Jinzhang sighed.

"Then what will we do next? I mean after withdrawing from Tangzhou... I can't just wait for the Americans to fight, right?" Li Asheng also knew that the current situation was actually formed under a variety of factors. After sighing for a while, he no longer focused on those past things. He began to care about the future.

"Of course you can't wait." Guo Jinzhang smiled coldly, "We want Americans to not dare to fight with us."

"How do you say this?" Li Asheng looked at him, "Can you do it? That's the United States, a whole country..."

"Of course I have a way." Guo Jinzhang smiled, "As long as I can accomplish something, Americans will definitely be much more honest, at least not dare to fight with us in a short period of time. As long as there is enough time, it is impossible for them to do it in the future..."

"One thing? What's the matter?" Li Asheng said.

"I'm not sure about this, but I think it's very likely to succeed." Guo Jinzhang smiled mysteriously.

"Ramsey is asking what to do next."

Guo Jinzhang and Li Asheng chatted on Capitol Hill, the White House, Chessert Arthur was also discussing the current situation with Brian... Both of them have very low reputations now, and there are voices of impeachment of the president among the people. It is just that because the members of Congress are temporarily imprisoned on Capitol Hill, this proposal cannot be included in the legal process. But it is undeniable that the two's political careers are over... Unless they can do something big in a short time to regain reputation. But the fact is that they don't know what they can accomplish in a short time. Eliminate the Red Corps? They have this intention, but even if they want to eliminate, they have to wait until the Red Corps is completely withdrawn to Washington State before they talk. These political officials are free, but Congress

The members of the parliamentarians are still in the hands of Guo Jinzhang and others, and they must take into account the safety of these guys. But when the Chinese retreat to Washington State and want to completely wipe them out in a short period of time, it is impossible... The Red Corps' left-behind troops in Seattle have built a solid position and have accumulated food that is said to be able to eat for one or two years. In addition, according to the Capitol Hill Secret Agreement signed with Guo Jinzhang outside the formal Treaty of Washington, they must provide a considerable number of weapon bullets to Tangzhou, that is, the Red Corps in Washington State. These weapon bullets will be transported back to Seattle with the retreating troops of the Red Corps. The number of these bullets is enough for the Red Corps to cope with more than ten high-intensity battles.

"I don't know what to do."

The war has stopped, and the federal army confronting the Red Corps in Georgia began to slack off. Although ordinary soldiers were angry about the failure of the political party, they were glad that they could not fight against the Chinese... The Red Corps had eliminated nearly 100,000 federal soldiers, and they did not want their names to be a row of letters on the list of deaths. However, the slackness of the soldiers became the trouble of the officers. This trouble was uploaded to the temporary commander-in-chief of the Federal Army, Ramsey, and was sent to the presidential office of the White House. However, Chessert Arthur was not in the mood to pay attention to these things.

"We can't do this, Chessette, even if those members of Congress are released and want to impeach us, we must do our own work before that... we can't let them look down on you." Brian said.

"I know." Chessert Arthur smiled bitterly, "But what can I do? The members of the parliament are still in the hands of the Chinese. Should we let Ramsey attack them now? That is murder, and it is a ruin of the United States."

"I just sent a telegram to Grant..." Brian said suddenly.

"Grant?" Chessert Arthur was stunned. "Aren't he writing his memoir?"

"Yes, but I decided to ask him if our arrangements were appropriate... But do you know how he answered?" Brian asked.

"I'm not a soldier. I can't guess what he will answer." Chessert Arthur shook his head.

"He said... without enough maritime power, you should not attack the Chinese. And it is better not to attack the Chinese," said Brian.

"What?" Chessert Arthur couldn't help but squeeze the skin on his forehead, "He said we shouldn't attack the Chinese?"

"Yes." Brian nodded, "He said that we have lost the best opportunity to attack the Chinese... and with the ability shown by Jin Zhang, Guo and others, they will definitely expect our next plan. But in this case they still signed a treaty with us... They must be thinking of Alaska or Canada as a retreat. In both cases, we cannot completely eliminate the Red Corps... and if we cannot completely eliminate it, or eliminate most of their members, then what we have to face next will be their crazy revenge."

"If they retreat to Alaska, we only need to send two old warships to block them in the snow and ice. If they arrive in Canada... Canadians will not accept a group of Chinese invasion of their own territory." Chessert Arthur shook his head, obviously disagreeing with what Grant said.

"I think so too. But Grant believes that Canadians cannot defeat the Chinese, to be precise, they cannot defeat the Red Corps. Similarly, Alaska and Canada are connected, and they belong to the same continent. So, we cannot block Alaska with warships." Brian said.

"But Canada is a member of the Commonwealth." Chessert Arthur said again.

"Once the members of the Commonwealth are invaded, other federal members are obliged to declare war on the invaders and send troops to support them... This is indeed a very useful amulet. But the question is," Brian smiled bitterly, "Will the British simply send troops to fight against the Chinese?"

"You mean..." Chessert Arthur was shocked.

"From the Armstrong gun used by the Chinese for the first time in Seattle, to the Chinese transport ships that are frequently entering and leaving the western coast recently... all of this has the shadow of the British swaying behind it, and even the French swaying." Brian sighed, "Once we attack the Red Corps, or let the Red Corps escape, then what we will face next will be a terrible alliance. A terrible corps with Britain and France behind it and has a very combat effectiveness... In Grant's words, they can bite the United States all over the body."

"Did you just let the Chinese live in Washington State so much?" Chessert Arthur also understood what Brian meant, that is, the Red Corps was not as easy to deal with as imagined, and even if they retreated back to Washington State, it would be difficult to deal with. However, when he thought of his experience of falling into the hands of the Chinese, he couldn't help it.

"Grant believes that when dealing with the Chinese, we can only use methods other than war. Pure combat is basically difficult to play any role." Brian said.

"Grant, Grant... He is a general, and he actually told me not to use war methods?" Chessert Arthur couldn't help but sneer.

"He is indeed a general, but he is also a president, although he is an unsuccessful president." Brian sighed. He now regrets his original methods very much. If he hadn't used it from it, Grant might have become the Republican presidential candidate and then become president. With Grant's famous general and rich war experience, he will definitely be able to make better responses when the Chinese launch an attack... Maybe the Chinese can't even get out of Seattle. However, time cannot be reversed, and it is useless for him to regret it.

It took more than a month for the Red Corps to withdraw back to Seattle. In more than a month, the members trapped on Capitol Hill were also released... On February 4, 1882, with the last member of the parliament, the old man who had been locked in the toilet by Guo Jinzhang for an hour, being released, the Red Corps advance team also began to evacuate from Washington.

The US government sent only one train and an ordinary State Department official to "show off", and even a ceremony was not held. However, despite this, the situation on the advance team was reported to the White House as soon as possible:
