My America

Chapter 1: Alliance Remnants



Today, the sun is shining brightly and the sky is clear, it is a rare good weather, suitable for traveling, but the smoke and rumbling sound of the steam train makes this idea out of date.

Along with the huge whistle, the train slowly stopped, which made the eyes dull, and she recovered from Sheffield in the state of the soul, and interrupted the imagination of the unknown number of times. Are you dreaming?

"Master, don't you get off and walk around while standing at the station?" A strong man across from Sheffield asked.

"I'm home now, what else do I do? Help me buy a newspaper." As one of the few entertainment projects of this era, he has developed the habit of reading newspapers for sixteen years, even if he didn't have this habit in his previous life.

The train approaching the station is just an episode. With the flow of people back and forth, the familiar whistle sounded again, and the train slowly started. Under the cover of the whistle, Sheffield, already holding the newspaper, looked at the headline and said, "Am I dreaming?"

In Sheffield ’s not long life, he has asked himself this question many times, and now the headline in the newspaper makes him ask himself again. The front page of the newspaper cared about the recent Brazilian civil war. How could he not remember this in his last life? one thing? What's more, it is now 1895.

Even in the United States of America where he is now, there are a lot of differences between the lighthouse country and the cognition. For example, his current destination is Arlington, and Sheffield knows the famous Arlington National Cemetery in later generations. In Washington, in the north of the United States, that was the home of American soldiers.

But beside his house, there is also a military cemetery named this name, but buried inside are the soldiers of the Southern Alliance Army in the Civil War. He dare to guarantee that this Texas cemetery in the previous life is absolutely non-existent.

History Texas did not shine in the Civil War, not to mention the emergence of a Texas legion, but this legion appeared, and the head of the legion was his grandfather, Edward Sheffield.

Even if Sheffield is sluggish, sixteen years have enough time to figure out, where is this plausible historical root? The root cause is his so-called grandfather, a guy who grew cotton in Louisiana in his early years.

Sheffield did not meet this predecessor. The other party was injured early in the Civil War and died after the war. The current Sheffield family leader is his grandmother Annabel.

Thinking of this year-round unspoken, black-dressed family Lafayette, Sheffield swallowed secretly, and this grandmother was a hard-to-match character, stubborn, stubborn.

After getting off the train, Sheffield didn't even need to lead and found the carriage waiting outside the station. The carriage at Sheffield's was easy to find. Two giant Shire horses rare in the world were in front of the carriage. He didn't know why he used it. This giant horse-drawn carriage seems to be used for farming.

However, in a place like Texas that is beautiful, it has played an extraordinary role, causing a wave of passengers' attention. Sharma is the largest horse breed in the world. Native to the British Isles, it was an important tool for early agriculture, industry, transportation, and transportation in Britain. This horse limit can pull five tons of heavy objects.

As for the carriage that Sheffield rides, the shoulder height of the two horses is about two meters, the huge body is like a hill, and the horseskin has thin velvet, which looks very windy, and many people passing by Can't help but look at it twice.

This kind of wait-and-see also stays with the coachman. This coachman is a black man, less than twenty years old. Not only does he not dodge this kind of gaze, but he is calm, and it is completely different from the black people who generally fear the whites.

"Martin, wait a long time!" Sheffield greeted the black young man very skillfully, but every time he saw the young man's heart, there was a sense of play. Before the Civil War, the names of these black people who were sold to the United States naturally came from their owners, and so did the black ancestors in front of them. But his grandfather obviously had a bad taste. The black generation was called Martin Luther King for three generations, but it was very black and humorous.

Black humor is much more than that. The young father was a mayor. He became the only black mayor in the United States a hundred years in advance. He has found all the cities in the United States and is now the only one.

After the end of the Civil War, this was the most determined decision by his grandfather. Of course, this operation did not exist in isolation. Martin ’s relatives were in a country called Liberia. Before the Civil War, there was a movement to repatriate black free people in the United States. Many blacks were repatriated to Liberia. This history is very clear.

After the end of the Civil War, the Sheffield family quickly took over the immigration that was not large-scale at that time, and quickly replaced the original minority with its own black people, and controlled the American spokesperson in Africa. It even changed Liberia ’s Stars and Stripes into a cross-shaped flag similar to the Union State.

It is simple to say, but there are certainly many unknown details that can be accomplished in this era. It is certainly not easy, which also reflects the strength of the Sheffield family during the Civil War.

After finishing this matter, Edward had just finished his life, which he now sums up as a stumbling block for the United States. Directly caused the current Sheffield, looking at the human lighthouse is very strange.

Now in the United States of America, because of the difference between the two more years of the Civil War and the same period in history, has it become stronger or weaker, and how weak has it become? Because he has never been out of Texas, he can't judge yet. However, as an important part of the defeat of the Southern League, the Sheffield family was not liquidated, indicating that the Northern Federation at the time did not have the power to pursue it.

But unlike in Texas, Sheffield can still see that, in addition to the establishment of an operation that allows black people to experiment autonomously, it is actually an operation of apartheid. The carriage with Sheffield just passed a church. Churches are very common. It is normal for Texas folk customs to be conservative, but this church is Orthodox.

Before the Civil War, Texas had only tens of thousands of residents, and the Lone Star Republic of Austin and Houston had only these populations, until Edward Sheffield moved from New Orleans, Louisiana. This has to be mentioned that Annabel, the old grandmother who is now in power in the Sheffield family, used the power of the whole family to buy and sell people from various European countries to support her husband ’s immigration work.

This has led to the current population of Texas. Nearly one-third of them are Eastern Europeans. Eastern Europeans have never seen Africans because of environmental reasons. Naturally, they tended to stand on the southern side during the Civil War.

Of course, all these operations can not leave a basic condition, rich! Annabel's family was actually in the transportation industry. Before the Civil War, New Orleans, the center of the South, had a huge fleet of ships to and from both sides of the Atlantic. Buying and selling people is the same as its own business, but it is only from Africa to Europe.

It did n’t take long for the carriage to reach a square with two flagpoles in the center of the square and two flags standing side by side, the flag of the Republic of Texas and the Southern Cross of the United States of America.
