2021 History of both factions
One handful, one pull, one dozen!
These are the three powerful drugs Xiao Letian gave to the UK. The entire strategy clearly outlines the current political landscape of the UK. The elites present can easily understand it even if they don’t have a deep study of the UK.
Under Xiao Letian's introduction, a vivid picture of British political changes slowly unfolded in front of everyone.
At first, Britain had no political parties. In the feudal era, all rights of the country were concentrated in the hands of the king and the nobles who had been entrusted downward. The people must first be loyal to the lord, and then the lord will be loyal to his direct management nobles, while those great nobles will be loyal to the king.
Layer after layer, the country was sealed and built!
But everything changed from Charles I. In 1649, Charles I, the ruler of the Stuart Dynasty, was tried by Cromwell and those who supported capitalism, and finally sent to the guillotine.
Since then, the feudal aristocratic forces have suffered heavy blows, and Britain has entered the era of capitalism. The power of capitalists has begun to seize power in the political arena. The most representative one is the great power of parliamentary power.
At that time, the parliament of Britain was strong enough to vote on the king's inheritance rights. The most typical example was the fierce debate and quarrel on the inheritance rights of James II's throne.
It was from that time that the British Parliament officially split into two rows, and one faction opposed James II's ascension to the throne. These people were scolded by their opponents as Whig, which translated into Chinese as Scottish robbers.
The congressmen who supported James II to take office were called Tory by their political enemies, which means gangsters in Chinese.
These two factions cursed each other in anger. It is conceivable that once the British Parliament quarreled, it would be no different from the vegetable market. They would also be swearing.
As a result, these two names became more and more popular. Gradually, not only did people in the parliament call each other like this, but even the people of the people began to use these two words to describe the two factions. Gradually, these two swearing words had some neutral meaning and eventually became self-proclaimed by the two factions.
Hearing Xiao Letian say this, Luo Huo scratched his head and said the most classic swear word from a foreigner, "Damn it, this is really interesting! He actually scolded people and became a party name?
"Hahaha... If there was such a verbal war in the Qing court, would the parties in the future be called... Your party, mom, a Bazi party... Hahaha, it's so funny!"
Luo Huo amused Sima Yun and Wang Huaiyuan who were not joking, "That's right, if the Northwest political party would probably have to be called Gua Shuang, Donkey Ridi... If the Shanghai party would have to be called Xiao Chi Lao Party..."
The people in the cabin laughed with a bang!
Xiao Letian also laughed loudly, and then pressed everyone with his hands. "What you said may not happen. After all, English vocabulary is not large, and many words have multiple meanings. Our Chinese language is profound, and Confucian scholars will not allow their party to use swear words as names..."
"Actually, what's the point of whether the name sounds good or not? From this point of view, we can also see the characteristics of Westerners being pragmatic and not being innocent. Europeans don't pay much attention to face. It is more important to get actual benefits in their eyes, so it doesn't matter to them what name they call!"
"Later, the Whigs and the Tories came together because of the glorious revolution. In the struggle to overthrow James II, a constitutional monarchy emerged, and the constitution became the foundation of the British state!"
"There was a long period of two parties' rotation. Generally speaking, the Whigs tended toward free trade and the interests of large factory owners, while the Tories tended toward traditional aristocrats, financial owners, and large landlords..."
"You can also see from diplomacy that most of the people who support the war of aggression against China are members of the Tory Party, while the Whigs maintain neutral and conservative views on the war of aggression against China. This is caused by the different ideological positions of the two factions!"
"Who in the UK gained the benefits during the two Opium Wars? You should carefully analyze the trade details between the Qing Dynasty and the UK. In fact, it was not the factory owner who had the most war dividends in China, because British industrial products were not sold much in the Qing Dynasty, and the self-sufficiency economic circle within China is still very stubborn!"
"The most goods imported to the Qing Dynasty every year are not imitations and industrial products, but opium and various financial products! We all know that opium is a profitable business, and financial products are even more terrible. You must know that the Qing Dynasty's treaty compensation is loaned from British banks first, and then the interest is paid every year!"
"The customs of the Qing Dynasty have been mortgaged. Do you think they make money?"
"When these British people are used to the huge profits of opium and the easy profits of financial products, do you think they are willing to do those tired and dirty primary industrial products businesses?"
"Of course the answer is no. Now more industrial products in the Qing Dynasty are produced in our Northern Special Zone, and a large part of them are made in the United States... These British people are used to being civilized! They have gradually given up their business with meager profits and hardships!"
"It is precisely because the Tories represent the interests of the nobles and financial capitalists, and these two groups of people are two groups who can get the best interests from the war of aggression against China that they actively launched two Opium Wars!"
"Now, it's time for them to suffer! We Chinese are indeed not opponents of the United Kingdom at the moment, but why should we position the enemy in front of us as the entire United Kingdom?"
"No! What we are going to crack down on now is the Tories, or Benjamin, the representative of the Tories!"
"Don't look at them having a good time now, I've already pulled out the list for him... Let's calculate it bit by bit. At this moment, strong support for the Whig Party is equivalent to giving us Chinese a time to achieve peaceful development!"
"Once the Liberal Party in Glaston takes office, it will be the golden moment for our peaceful and great development of China!"
Everyone was excited after saying this, and the last worry about the head of state strategy had completely disappeared.
Britain is an obstacle that cannot be avoided by the rise of the Chinese. Everyone is worried, and everyone is afraid that Britain is stabbing the knife in the back. In fact, Xiao Letian is also afraid.
Xiao Letian knew that the UK's global influence at this moment was no less than that of the United States at its peak in its previous life. Basically, all countries around the world can fight anyone, and they are sure to defeat it.
For such a giant who cannot be avoided, you must pay attention to strategies and methods. It is not possible to do it recklessly, and it is not possible to even open a gold finger, because no matter how powerful the gold finger you Xiao Letian brings, with the British industrial strength and technological level, you can basically copy the past with just a few glances and come from behind.
For example, Zhiyuan can be regarded as the world's most advanced warship for the time being, but at most British imitation warships will be launched in the water in the next year, and then warships with the same performance will drive into the sea like dumplings.
