Our great nation of China traverses the multiverse.

Standing solemnly in the Parliament hall, Manton solemnly announced to the world:

"From today onwards, the German Alliance is officially established!"

"Let's cheer! Victory is ours!"

"It belongs only to us!"

"Wow--"

As soon as Manchester made the official announcement, the crowd in the square erupted in excitement.

They have won!

"Damn it!"

Inside the White House, Fred quickly cleaned everything off the table.

He glared at Vanno beside him and demanded in a loud voice:

"Why, why did the vote turn out like this?!"

"What happened to the voting results you interfered with?!"

"Your Excellency, if I may be so bold, we have exhausted all means, and it seems that Manton did not truly hold a 'referendum'..."

Vanno immediately realized the problem.

With them taking action, the outcome shouldn't be an overwhelming victory for the other side.

and so……

The enemy had considered this from the beginning; the outcome of this referendum was already determined from the start!

"Damn it, no wonder they always talk about freedom and never mention democracy!"

Fred roared, his eyes gradually turning cold.

"Since Manton has made his choice..."

"Then he'll have to pay the price!"

"Vanno, all troops are to set out immediately. A huge bounty will be placed on Manton for treason!"

"I want to see his head for myself!!!"

"Yes!"

Vanno agreed immediately.

Things have come to this point.

War is inevitable.

The American civil war has officially begun!

The first shot was fired on the Texas border.

The time was the evening after the referendum results were announced.

U.S. troops took the opportunity to break into Texas.

However, the German army was also prepared.

The two groups of troops were virtually identical in equipment and military skills, and engaged in a head-on battle in the Texas wilderness.

We fought all night.

They were both taught by the same master, so neither of them can defeat the other in a short period of time.

So-called war is actually about fighting logistics and the economy.

Upon learning of the border clashes, Mande immediately convened a meeting of the councilors to begin organizing a response.

The following day, the American troops stationed in Belgrade mutinied and declared that they would henceforth be under the administration of the German alliance.

Meanwhile, Liben, Luzon, and Australia all declared their recognition of the German Confederation as an independent nation.

Manton even used Australian mining companies as intermediaries to lobby the major Eastern power to reopen various trade and economic activities.

The reopening of trade between Germany and the major Eastern power is crucial!

This even relates to whether this war with the federal government can ultimately be won.

Therefore, Mander attached great importance to it and was even willing to sacrifice some interests for it.

All I ask is that trade and economic activities can resume.

The supply chain of the German alliance can now begin to operate normally.

Once it starts operating normally, it will be able to rely on the huge market of this great Eastern power.

A continuous flow of energy replenishes the meridians.

The federal government is doomed to lose!

At that point, he won't be able to refuse to recognize the German alliance!

……

China.

Old Zhu sat in his office, listening quietly to the intelligence report.

Furthermore, the intelligence also included a "letter of request" from the German alliance.

"Mr. Zhu, what's your opinion on the alliance with Germany?"

Beside him, the Minister of Commerce glanced at the so-called official letter and chuckled.

"We cannot directly recognize the German alliance."

Old Zhu shook his head.

The great Eastern power is a responsible great power!

Even if the enemy is divided, they must solve their own internal problems.

In other words, we'll wait until the German Union and the United States are completely locked in a fierce battle before taking action!

"Hehe, but we can give the German Alliance some hope, after all, we still need the Compass Biological Research Institute."

With a cold laugh, Old Zhu prepared to take his dog for a walk.

The German alliance will definitely help.

However, we cannot provide full assistance.

Just keep him hanging on, so he doesn't die.

Thus, he was forced to become increasingly dependent on the great Eastern power!

However, we shouldn't overdo it.

This balance needs to be carefully managed.

"Old Zhu is familiar with this matter, so please take care of it."

He nodded and handed the matter over to Old Zhu.

"Hehe, leave it to me!"

Old Zhu happily agreed.

He was perfectly suited to dig up the grave of the arrogant America.

After the two made arrangements for the funeral of the former Earth's overlord,

I stared blankly at the television in the distance.

On the television, a scene that looked very familiar to them was playing.

The camera focused on America's Stars and Stripes.

Meanwhile, the host solemnly announced from the side.

The United States is officially divided!

In the scene, the Stars and Stripes fluttering in the wind slowly descends, and then the flag symbolizing the German Union slowly rises amidst sacred singing.

This scene was so familiar that it made Mr. Zhu and the Minister of Commerce feel as if they had returned to that day at the end of 1991.

The flag that had been fluttering high also fell slowly in the cold wind.

History really is a great cycle!

"Brother, this way, we can at least repay you for the help you've given us in the past."

"Under the birch trees, we have not forgotten our original aspirations!"

Old Zhu murmured to himself.

The stars and stripes fell.

An era has come to a complete end!

A hegemonic era has come to a complete end.

"The United States has truly cracked!"
