Rothschild Family!

As long as the Civil War breaks out, regardless of who wins the war, the huge government debt caused by the enormous war expenditures will force the United States federal government to borrow from abroad, ultimately leading it down the path they have planned.

According to accurate intelligence obtained by Chen Mo, the Rothschild family, currently the richest family in Europe and the largest banking force, is behind this war.

During the war, they provided loans and sold essential goods to the nobles of the belligerent nations, and handled international remittances and currency exchanges between Europe countries. After the war, they dabbled in government securities, insurance, and corporate stocks, and invested in railways, coal, steel, and other industries, firmly grasping the economic lifeline of the nation.

After establishing their influence throughout Europe, the Rothschild family set their sights on the United States.

In the autumn of 1859, Europe banker Solomon Thaddeus Ross arrived in the United States South. At that time, the United States was full of agents of Britain financiers. Solomon cleverly used these agents to create momentum, constantly highlighting and amplifying the economic conflict between the North and the South over the issue of slavery, and successfully catalyzing the issue of slavery into an irreconcilable contradiction between the North and the South.

During his talks with local figures, Solomon Thaddeus Ross publicly stated that he would provide strong economic support to the South and help the newly independent South gain recognition from major Europe powers.

Meanwhile, in the north, there was a powerful supporter, the Jewish banker August Belmont, who was known as the King of Fifth Avenue in New York.

August arrived in New York in 1837 and quickly became a leading figure in New York's financial circles after purchasing a large amount of government bonds. August also stated in public on several occasions that he represented the Britain Thaddeus Ross Bank and was willing to provide financial support to the North.

In fact, the two bankers, Auguste and Solomon, who supported the North and South respectively, actually belonged to the Rothschild family.

August Belmont was Rothschild Bank's agent in the United States and a major supporter of Henry Clay and the Whig Party. However, despite his efforts in the United States for more than 20 years, he had made little progress. It was only then that the Rothschild family sent a core member of the family to handle the United States issue.

Solomon Thaddeus Ross was the second son of Mayer Thaddeus Ross, the founder of the Rothschild family, and one of the "Rothschild Five Tigers".

Mayer Thaddeus Ross sent his five sons, known as the "Rothschild Five Tigers," to open banks London major Europe cities such Austria Britain, France, Paris, Vienna Naples Italy control Europe finance. After their agent in the United States, Germany Frankfurt, suffered a setback, Solomon Thaddeus Ross came to the United States himself.

In fact, the outbreak of the Civil War was inevitable. If they hadn't killed Zachary Taylor, who was a staunch opponent of slavery, the Civil War might have already broken out. After years of brewing and fermentation, the North-South conflict had become increasingly acute. At this point, their intervention and instigation only accelerated the outbreak of this long-brewing war.

With their full support, the United States Civil War broke out as these bankers had hoped. In the early stages of the war, the Southern military offensive was victorious, but the Northern Lincoln government's empty treasury caused the army to retreat one after another. Without money, the war would have ended quickly, and the South would have been victorious.

At this point, the "well-meaning" bankers stepped in, proposing a financing plan to Lincoln with the following terms: bond interest rates of 24% to 36%!

It was only then that Lincoln realized the bankers were playing a game that could bankrupt the United States. government.

The bankers successfully put Lincoln in a dilemma: without money, they could only wait for the South to win; but if they accepted the bankers' rules, even if they won the war, the government would be controlled by the bankers.

Lincoln visited Chen Mo again, hoping that Chen Mo could provide financial support to the Northern Federation, but Chen Mo refused him once more.

Now is not the time for a private central bank to emerge. Without experiencing several financial crises and understanding the potential threats and enormous damage to the economy caused by laissez-faire financial policies, even if he successfully establishes a central bank during this war, it will be like the First Bank of the United States and Second Bank of the United States, which were shut down after the government weathered the crisis and the license expired.

However, Chen Mo did not leave it to chance, but suggested that Lincoln let the government issue its own currency!

This move was a bolt from the blue for Europe bankers, and the Times of London, representing the bankers' position, immediately issued a statement:

"If this abhorrent new currency policy (Lincoln Greenback) originating in the United States were to become permanent, then the government could issue its own currency at no cost. It would be able to pay off all its debts and be debt-free, it would have all the necessary currency to develop commerce, and this country would have to be destroyed, or it would destroy every monarchy in the world!"

Lincoln caused heavy losses to the bankers who had been providing the South with huge financial support, and he also thwarted the family's conspiracy. They were not about to let it go!

Through their years of infiltration of Congress, they had a clear grasp of Lincoln's whereabouts and selected John Booth as their "gunman"!

Through meticulous planning and arrangement, a series of coincidences led to Abraham Lincoln's mysterious death.

After Lincoln's death, under the manipulation of international financial forces, the United States. Congress announced the repeal of Lincoln's new currency policy, stipulating that the issuance of Lincoln's new currency would not exceed $400 million.

Chen Mo did not interfere in these matters. Chen Mo did not intend to change these historically significant events, as that would likely alter the course of history. Lincoln's "death" did not weaken his control over the Republican Party and Congress, and the repeal of the new currency policy was carried out with Chen Mo's tacit approval.

Europe bankers thought they were in control, but little did they know that Chen Mo was watching their every move. Chen Mo didn't want to interfere with or change major historical events like the assassination of Lincoln, but Chen Mo could easily deal with a few small financial families.

During World War I, under the targeting of an invisible force, the Rothschild family and other famous Europe financial families suffered catastrophic losses. Most of their assets were seized and confiscated, and family members suffered heavy casualties. These once powerful forces that secretly controlled the Europe economy never recovered.
