Start 1861: I Just Inherited the Dutch Throne Chapter 354

The last time I talked about the PK between the Netherlands and Prussia, the Netherlands attracted the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Prussia attracted the Ottoman Empire, and the Netherlands announced its relationship with the Persian Empire. On the Dutch side, Prussia fell behind.

So people couldn't help but wonder whether Prussia continued to deal with the Netherlands.

However, it is disappointing that Bismarck and Wilhelm I chose to retreat and did not fight back again.

However, William IV did not dare to take it lightly, because his opponent was Bismarck, the chief hero of the German Empire who was later called Prussia's rise to become the hegemon of the European continent.

Who will not admire this person in future generations.

However, William IV did not expect that Bismarck did not fight back against the Netherlands until February 25, 1868, the day the Senate impeached Lincoln.

On March 25, 1868, the Senate of the United States of America officially opened the impeachment case against President Lincoln. Originally passed by the House of Representatives, many people thought it would pass. , all passed. Under the rule of Andrew, the Senate is considered his stronghold, so there is no reason why it will not pass.

However, the accident came suddenly.

The Senate votes to impeach President Lincoln, with 70 votes from 35 states, plus one vote for the Senate President and Vice President, for a total of 71 votes.

If impeachment is to pass, it needs 48 votes to pass.

Conversely, the Irish and Germans must win 24 votes to prevent impeachment from passing.

Irish people currently hold 14 votes and Germans 9 votes, which means they must win one more vote.

Many people secretly hate that if the vice president's vote belongs to Irish or German descent, then there is no need to worry about being impeached, but now it is his opponent Andrew.

Like it or not, the vote is over.

As time passed, the counting of votes ended, and everyone couldn't help but look at the interim President of the Senate, Benjamin Wade.

This time he acted as a fair teller.

Benjamin Wade looked at the results and finally announced it.

47 to 24!

Lincoln's impeachment failed, Lincoln acquitted!

When the results were announced, Lincoln was overjoyed, the Irish hugged each other excitedly, and the Germans were also crying with joy.

The Dutch people looked at the result in disbelief. Until now, they still do not believe that the Senate, which had the most hope of passing, was turned into a victory.

Andrew stepped onto the podium. As the President of the Senate, he had this right. Many people could not help but calm down. Whether they were German, Irish, Danish, Swedish, Dutch, or Latino, they all looked at a similar As the "loser" walked with difficulty step by step, Xihua sneered at Andrew's dragging pace with a victor's mentality.

Lincoln's eyes were cold. This impeachment has completely changed his mentality. He may not have realized that he has become more of a politician than a national leader.

"I want to see, Andrew, what else do you want to do?"

Andrew walked up to the podium, he didn't take any manuscript, and he didn't need it.

The whole place was silent.

Andrew smiled self-deprecatingly: "With one vote, President Lincoln passed everyone's no-confidence impeachment vote, which is really gratifying."

Lincoln's face was stunned when he heard this. What did Andrew mean, he actually said that.

Seward continued to sneer: "Pretentiousness can't change the fact that you failed"

Others also agreed and laughed softly. People not far away looked at Vice President Andrew in confusion, wondering why they congratulated others when they lost to the other party.

Could it be that after failure, the heart can't bear the setbacks, so the mentality is out of balance?

Many people looked at the 60-year-old man on stage with pitiful and sympathetic eyes.

However, the interim Senate President Benjamin Wade, who is not far away, is still puzzled. Why, when counting the votes, he will see the most unbelievable scene. What he is even more puzzled is that Andrew has still behaved a little bit until now. There are no exceptions.

"Is that human being?"

Andrew continued: "The Commonwealth of Millikin will love you in a few years, and it will soon be 100 years old. In the past 100 years, the Commonwealth of Millikin has experienced many catastrophes and catastrophes, and the influence of European countries has penetrated and Our reverse osmosis struggle has gone through ups and downs. After I was born in 1808, I just listened to the older generation about the hardships of building a country, the hardships of national development, and the hardships of national growth and transformation.”

Although all the people in the Senate, including Lincoln and Seward, are full of doubts, it seems that every scene of the history of the establishment and struggle of the Millikin nation mentioned by Andrew is appearing and blooming.

Including Lincoln and Seward, were proud of the Commonwealth of America.

Andrew: "But the difficulties faced by the country are always endless. There were two wars with Britain in the past, trying to occupy our great country, but ultimately failed.

After that, I chose to hide and search for proxy wars in the country. Yes, it is the 13 southern states. The agricultural plantations there supply more agricultural products to the UK than we supply to the north. They have close contacts and are better than the North and South.

My colleagues, in this way, the United Kingdom disintegrated our North and South from the inside, and deliberately promoted the liberation of slaves-slave policy, which brought the conflict between the North and the South into a fierce period, and finally caused a disaster. Our great American Civil War between the North and the South, fought seven In 2018, the injured population exceeded 1 million in seven years, the original national strength growth has rapidly turned into a turtle, international trade has shrunk sharply, employment is bleak, and national diplomacy is limited by several countries.”

As the lines were listed, President Lincoln and Secretary of State Seward looked embarrassed. It seemed that Andrew was whipping them. Wasn't this saying to their faces that their cabinet government was abysmal?

Andrew continued: "I'm talking bad about the cabinet government~www.mtlnovel.com~ but I'm not doing it as the vice president or the speaker of the Senate, but as an ordinary person, which has raised my doubts, I believe Our generous President Lincoln and Secretary of State His Excellency Seward should not have a problem with that."

Everyone looked at the first row, and Lincoln shrugged and smiled helplessly. Seward, on the other hand, was expressionless.

Neither of them refuted Andrew.

It seems that victory makes people forget everything.

Andrew watched this scene and continued to say solemnly: "Actually, I voted for President Lincoln just now, because this is a vote of confidence."

Success can be achieved by only one vote, which has shocked the opposition and ruling parties in various countries.

You must know that this can be the highest ruler of a country, the person in charge of the highest power in the United States of Millikin, who was almost ousted from power.

The shock caused by this is more shocking than the overthrow of a country's king, because it happened in the country's peace.
