Chapter 459 Lincoln's Death!

After being elected President of the United States, leading the Union to victory in the Civil War, and completely abolishing slavery, Lincoln's national prestige reached its peak. After four years in office, he was uncontested and re-elected in 1864. America president.

But that doesn't mean he won the love of all the people. Before Lincoln could put his postwar policies into practice, Easter, April 14, 1865, at 10:15 pm, the fifth day after the surrender of the Confederate army. One day, Lincoln was shot at the Ford Theater in Washington.

The famous actor John Booth, who was sympathetic to the South, sneaked into the presidential box while the presidential bodyguards were leaving and shot Lincoln.

After John Booth was born in the famous American theater industry, his superb acting skills have always been the object of female fans. people work in secret,

The group had plotted plans to kidnap Lincoln in exchange for captured soldiers in the South from a Washington apartment, but these plans, like so many others, were fruitless.

Two or three days before Lincoln was assassinated, Booth was drunk almost every day. His former conspiracy organization was fragmented, and only three or two people remained.

At noon on April 14, John Booth went to the Ford Theater to pick up his mail and stumbled across a poster saying that Lincoln and Ulysses Simpson Grant, commander-in-chief of the Union Army, would be attending the evening show. Booth immediately burst into ecstasy. , immediately summoned the best buddies to implement their final plan: shoot the president!

Booth calmly entered the president's box at 10 p.m., which had a lock that had broken a few days earlier, and no one had reported it.

Since John Booth was originally an actor, the President's guard did not stop him, and the policeman John Pike should have been guarding the only way to the box in the hall, but he seemed to have no interest in watching the play, So I hid in another room and went for a drink.

In this way, under this series of "coincidences", John Booth entered President Lincoln's box smoothly, and the dignified President Lincoln of the United States of America, under the layers of defenses of the presidential guard and the police, just watched. During the play, he was shot from behind without knowing it.

The murderer of President Lincoln, John Booth, fled while the scene was chaotic, but only ten days later, John Booth, who had escaped from Washington and entered Virginia, was found and shot on the spot.

After Presidents William Henry Harrison and Zachary Taylor "died" successively, President Abraham Lincoln was directly assassinated, and the "accidental" death rate of American presidents was surprisingly high.

The assassination of President Lincoln this time seems to be the crazy personal behavior of an actor who is sympathetic to the southern forces. Even if someone notices that there are too many coincidences, they can only suspect that it is the revenge of the southern slave owners.

But after death, he was rescued by Chen Mo like Zachary Taylor, but Abraham Lincoln himself, who woke up in the Brooklyn manor, did not think so.

Those southern slave owners have always wanted his life since he came to power, but they have never been successful, but did they succeed so coincidentally after the war?

Compared with the southern slave-owner forces, Lincoln was more suspicious of another group that was not conspicuous, but held a more powerful force.

The situation in Chen Mo's hands also confirms this.

This assassination seems to be the personal behavior of John Booth, but there is an invisible big hand behind it, but it is estimated that even John Booth himself does not know that his behavior has been secretly influenced and manipulated by others .

All of this seems to be an opportunity given to him by God. It was his own decision, and with careful preparation and good luck against the sky, he successfully completed this time that the southern slave owners have worked hard for countless times but failed to complete it successfully. Feat, in fact, he was completely used as a gun!

And the real behind-the-scenes promoter behind this assassination,

In fact, it is the same group of people who are behind the death of the first two presidents!

The world banker who holds huge wealth in his hands and wants to use financial means to completely control the US economy!

To be precise, a banker from Europe!

Although the United States became independent from the United Kingdom, neither the United Kingdom nor other European countries such as France have given up their penetration and control of this emerging country.

Compared with Europe, the history and background of the United States is much worse. The United States was originally the descendants of European colonists and immigrants, but most of the first American immigrants were poor people at the bottom of Europe, and there was no background at all.

The vast majority of bankers and financiers who control huge wealth in the United States are from continental Europe, and most of the rest are agents of European bankers. There are very few bankers who have developed in the United States. Even these local bankers, while growing, have more or less connections with European powers.

Since 1833, President Madison closed the second private central bank in the United States that the bankers finally re-established. After the second bank of the United States, two consecutive presidents have not been able to achieve their goal of rebuilding the private central bank again. The Whig party, led by their spokesman Henry Clay, which they had worked so hard to support, collapsed completely.

European bankers are reluctant to sit back and watch the U.S. economy slip out of their hands as the U.S. economy becomes more and more independent, and the prospect of a private central bank dwindling.

The European capitalists who manipulated the situation in Europe behind the scenes and used money to wrestle with the king have not been forced to retreat by the current situation. They have fought with various royal families and governments in Europe for many years, and have been able to successfully become the big creditors of the British royal family. The persecuted Britain had to European bankers, who borrowed from them through private central banks, have a wealth of experience dealing with the current situation.

The establishment of the Bank of Scotland in the United Kingdom took advantage of the fact that the British government was in financial difficulties during the "Nine Years War" between the United Kingdom and France. Through a clever operation, it successfully passed the permission of Parliament and obtained the charter granted by the king.

In addition, countries such as France, Sweden, and the Netherlands have also established private joint-stock banks with the nature of central banks to provide the royal family with financing and lending services and currency issuance services.

They deeply analyzed the current situation in the United States, and finally found that the only way at present is to divide the United States, increase government spending by planning a war, make the government carry huge debts, and then achieve the ultimate goal of their planning!
