Chapter 449 Mysterious Guest!

In this way, under the multiple pressures of southern slave owners, hostile parties, and supporters of slave owners in the former Whig party, those who opposed slavery in the Whig party gradually moved closer to the group with Chen Mo as the core and the biggest supporter. The strength of the group continues to increase.

And Chen Mo, with his wealthy wealth in the United States and the huge popularity he has won in the Whig Party over the years, as well as his control over the young members of the current group, firmly occupies the dominant position of this group.

Once again united, they finally fended off the slave-holding attacks and gained a firm foothold in Congress.

In fact, it is not just the Whig party that has split, but the Democratic Party, which won this election, also has conflicts over the issue of slavery.

The confrontation between northern capitalists and southern slave owners has become more and more fierce. Members of Congress representing the interests of the two parties are arguing endlessly in Congress. Even members of the North and South of the two parties are in constant conflict, and the cohesion of the parties has never been lower.

This kind of chaos within the party continued until 1854. After years of accumulation, the contradictions within the party finally exploded.

In July 1854, driven by Chen Mo behind the scenes, the Northern Whigs joined with the anti-slaveryist and other anti-slavery factions of the Northern Democratic Party to form a new party, the Republican Party, and founded the party's values ​​on "Individual freedom" and "national unity", and preventing the expansion of slavery in the western region, and even further eliminating slavery, are their current common pursuits.

The main members of the Republican Party are all representatives of the northern bourgeoisie, consisting of representatives of business owners in the Northeast who opposed slavery and agricultural entrepreneurs in the Midwestern states, while the Democratic Party after the split mainly represented plantation owners and slave owners in the South. The interests of connected entrepreneurs.

As for the Whig Party, it has already existed in name only. Most of its members have joined the Republican Party and the Democratic Party. The rest have no role in the political situation. The once prosperous Whig Party has completely declined.

As the largest farmer, rancher, factory owner and capitalist in the north of the United States, he employs hundreds of thousands of farmers, cowboys, workers, and employees. The wealth, personnel, and political power under his control are absolutely overwhelming in the newly formed Republican Party. However, Chen Mo did not stand up to lead this emerging political party, but chose to continue to stand behind the scenes, but pushed a young talent he had been vigorously supporting and cultivating to the front.

In the previous dormant period, Chen Mo intended to continuously improve his prestige and influence in the circle he established, and there was a faint tendency to cultivate him as his own spokesperson.

And this young talent who came from a poor family and became a lawyer entirely by self-study, became a state legislator at the age of 25, and was elected to the House of Representatives at the age of 37 did not live up to Chen Mo's training and expectations. With his own ability and personal charm, not only in the The influence of his state is growing, and his prestige in the small circle formed by Chen Mo has gradually increased, and he has the demeanor of a group leader.

With the addition of more core members of the original Whig party, he did not worry about his status being threatened. Instead, he personally invited many members to join the group. In the end, he not only failed to be compared, but also with his excellent political skills, Gradually, he integrated and united everyone, and completely consolidated his position as the leader of his team and the spokesperson of Chen Mo.

After it was reorganized into the Republican Party, it relied on the unity of the North.

The strength of the Fang Whig Party firmly grasped the leadership of the Republican Party.

The young Republican leader's name is -- Abraham Lincoln!

The existence or not of slavery has become the most prominent contradiction in the United States at present, and it has even directly led to the change of political parties. After the reorganization of the two parties, this issue has been thoroughly intensified, and the debate on Congress and even the whole country has The struggle is intensifying!

In this year, the southern slave owners attempted to expand slavery to Kansas by force, so in Kansas, western farmers and immigrants from free states were exploded against the armed struggle of southern slave owners,

The struggle continued until 1856, kicking off the American Civil War.

In early 1856, the Brooklyn estate in southeastern New York welcomed a mysterious guest.

This person is extremely tall, over 1.9 meters tall, but the body under the wide and slender black woolen coat is very thin, and the cheeks are sunken inward, and he does not look handsome.

However, his figure is very straight and straight, and he does not have the common problem of stooping and sagging shoulders for tall and thin people. The whole person feels very confident and calm, and the atmosphere is extraordinary.

After Zachary Taylor led him to Chen Mo's study, he turned and left.

But the tall man did not rush in, but turned his head and watched Zachary Taylor disappear into the corner of the corridor, his thin face full of doubts.

Although Zachary Taylor was dressed in a neat and decent suit, acting as a gentleman and elegant, he used his keen eyes to read countless people, and felt from Taylor a kind of feeling that he only had on those veteran generals who had experienced many battles. The heroic atmosphere that can only be felt, and a kind of free and easy calmness that underestimates everything after the power is in hand.

Also, this person felt very familiar to him, but he was sure he had never seen him before, which was weird!

After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't come up with a clue. The man had to put this matter down temporarily. He still had important things to do.

Turning around, he carefully arranged his clothes and ties, and after confirming that the instrument was in order, the man solemnly stretched out his thin palm, and gently knocked on the door in front of him with a gentle rhythm.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Soon, a deep and majestic voice sounded inside the door.

"Come in!"

The man quickly tidied up his clothes that were slightly crooked because of the knock on the door, raised his hand and opened the door and walked in.

This is a study full of medieval retro style. There is a huge oil painting on the wall facing the door. The first time he saw it, the man's eyes couldn't help but be attracted by this painting.

A towering and majestic Blackrock castle towers over the horizon, and its tall walls are lined with soldiers waiting in full force.

In front of the castle, a group of fully-armed, covered in icy silver full-body heavy armor, the mighty and majestic heavy-armored knights, led by a black-robed knight, carried an indomitable and terrifying aura. A silver sword charged towards the gate of the castle.
