Holy Roman Empire

The defeat on the front line exacerbated the infighting of the London government. In addition to the political scandals of some time ago, Prime Minister John Russell was forced to resign.

Whig defeated in the new election, Peel and Conservative Party formed a cabinet, George Hamilton Gordon took the stage of history.

The new weather of the new government is the most important thing for the George Hamilton Gordon government right now is the Near East War.

It is impossible to retreat, which is related to Britain's international status.Now is the era of Britain and Russia. If the London government retreats at this time, it is to recognize the Russians, which is equivalent to recognizing the Russians' world dominance.

Not to mention the huge loss of interests, the blows from the spirit alone cannot be accepted by the British people.

As the leader of the anti-war faction, George Hamilton Gordon understood the difficulties of John Russell, a war that had to be fought.

No matter how serious the casualties are, they must be beaten.If the expansion of the Russians is not curbed now, the future British Empire will pay a greater price.

10 Downing Street

"You guys, it's our turn to clean up this mess. The situation on the battlefield in the Balkans is very unfavorable to us. According to the report from the front, the coalition forces may be defeated at any time.

The question now is whether we should continue to open up the second front, or the third front."George Hamilton Gordon asked

It can be seen that Prime Minister George Hamilton Gordon's heart is not calm, and the wrinkles between the eyebrows have sold out his inner uneasiness.

Secretary of the Navy James Graham replied: "His Excellency, from a strategic point of view, there is no problem with opening a second front on the Crimean peninsula.

The Russians are strong, but they are restricted by their domestic transportation, which restricts the deployment of power.Because of the early preparations, Russian talents have the ability to support the Caucasus battlefield and the Balkan battlefield at the same time.

In fact, in the Balkan battlefield, the Russians are heavily dependent on Austrian logistics supplies, otherwise they will not be able to impress.

If we open up a new front, it will soon exceed the Russians' tolerance limit.Even if we cannot win completely on the battlefield, we can still consume them.

Now that the Russian Black Sea Fleet is over, we can attack at any time.If necessary, we can turn all the Ukrainian coast and the Crimean peninsula into a battlefield, making the Russians exhausted."

The cabinet changed office, but there was no major change in the upper levels of the government, and the war and army ministers remained.

It is not surprising that the Secretary of the Navy supports this plan. How can the importance of the Navy be reflected if the second front cannot be opened?

The struggle for rights is everywhere, and it is impossible to fight with the world.Although the Royal Navy had an absolute advantage and resolutely suppressed the Army, they had to come out from time to time to brush their presence.

"It is okay to open up a second front, but the situation in the Crimean Peninsula is a little complicated, and the climate and the domestic gap on the island are a bit big. If you attack unintentionally, non-combat downsizing will be serious.

It is better to land on the coast of Ukraine first, cut off the Crimean peninsula from the mainland from behind, and trap the Russian army on the island."Army Secretary Stanley suggested

"Mr. Stanley, isn't the main force of this attack the French?" Asked James Graham, Secretary of the Navy

...

The battle of the offensive route has become the battle for the dominance of the army and navy.

Facts have proved that the British Navy has more bullseye than the Army, so the result of this battle for dominance is self-evident.

Paris

Napoleon III had long been unable to bear it. The military defeat in this battle was politically unaffordable; the French defeat, he could not personally lose.

After receiving the notice from the British, the French government made the decision as soon as possible and sent 200,000 troops to initiate the Crimean War.

After some consultations, on February 12, 1853, Britain and France reached an agreement to jointly send 300,000 troops to open up a second front on the Crimean peninsula.

At this time, the war on the Balkans had come to an end. Under the attack of the Russians irrespective of casualties, the coalition forces were still unable to hold the Sliven area.

Aimble Jean-Jacques Perissier succeeded in making the Ottomans blameless. On the surface, it seems that the Russians broke through the Ottomans' defense line and then completed the outsourcing.

Seeing that the general trend was gone, on 14 February 1853, Aimble Jean-Jacques Perissier ordered the French to break through, and the French army, which had already prepared for it, easily broke through the Russian encirclement.

They were running smoothly, and the coalition forces were bitter.Not to mention the Ottoman army, it was directly betrayed, and less than 30,000 of the more than 300,000 troops ran out after the war.

The British were also tragicly shot. They were busy reorganizing their troops to restore their fighting power. As a result, the bear was killed from behind. Without any preparation, he was beaten and fled.

When counting the losses, Major General Oliver was directly angrily speechless.The defeat of this battle really did not matter to them, but the losses on the battlefield were terrible.

Not to mention that his commander of the expeditionary army was relegated, barely can be regarded as a division commander, but somehow retained more than 9,000 troops, right?

The rest is naturally broken up, and only God knows how many of these people died in battle, how many were captured, and how many were lost.

Constantinople Allied Headquarters

Oliver roared fiercely: "Perissier, you bastard, it is best to give me a reasonable explanation, otherwise the British Empire will not let go!"

Of course, it is impossible to give up. The British Expeditionary Force suffered such a heavy loss. If there is not even one statement, how to explain it to the country?

"General Oliver, let's calm down first. The position was suddenly attacked by the enemy, and we were caught in the encirclement of the enemy. There was simply no way to inform you." Aimble Jean-Jacques Perissier forcedly explained

"Miscellaneous, such an excuse to fool children! Even if the Russians break through the defense line, it is impossible to complete the detour immediately, you have no time to send someone to notify?

If it were not for you to take us as the dead ghost, I am afraid that the French army cannot be withdrawn so completely!Major General Oliver sneered

"I'm afraid it's no surprise that we, the 50,000 reinforcements promised by your government, should have arrived twenty days ago, and there is no shadow by now. If this unit is not postponed, this battle will not be lost at all.

Now that you have reached this point, you are also to blame.It was the error message you provided that directly misled the military deployment of the coalition forces, which caused this failure."Aimble Jean-Jacques Perissier diametrically opposed

...

Who wouldn't throw the pot?At the juncture of the crisis, it must be that the dead friends do not die and the poor do not die. Without the rear of the coalition forces, the Russian chasers are blocked. Can the French be withdrawn so completely?

If the advance notice, let the British run away.The part of the Russian army that they blocked was outflanked from the flank, and the French army could not be wiped out by the whole army.

Even if the French army is open, if there is an enemy before and a chase after it, it will be able to run half of the troops. That is God's blessing.

It is much better now, but the French army has only paid more than 20,000 casualties, and they have all the main forces.

With the naval fire cover, these French troops can defend Constantinople. From the perspective of the French, Emma Bule Jean-Jacques Perissier's decision is not wrong.

But the sequelae is quite serious, except for the Sardinians who have been rowing, the main force of the coalition forces on the Balkans is the French.

The Ottoman Empire became the biggest loser, and directly lost all his pants.After receiving the news, Abdul Mejid I was directly stunned.

However, the Ottoman government has no place to be angry. They are different from Oliver, and there is no British empire behind them.

Now that the Balkans are the French, it ’s up to the anxiety that Ambler Jean Jacques Perissier will also kill people. Is the Sudanese government expected to fail?

Whether they want it or not, this black pot is determined.As long as the French keep Constantinople, the London government will default to this result.

The interest is always more important than the truth. Even if the blood is pitted, the Sudanese government has to continue to be patient with the French.

The financial income of more than seven floors of the Ottoman Empire comes from the Balkan Peninsula, and most of the industry is gathered around Constantinople.(Istanbul area)

After losing the Balkans, the Ottoman Empire is not as powerful as Sweden or Belgium. This consequence is not something the Sudanese government can bear.

...

Aimble Jean-Jacques Perissier ’s approach has achieved military success, but has caused endless trouble for the Paris government.

Of course, this kind of trouble, Napoleon III himself is willing to face.The conflict between the two sides is the lesser. The trouble in international politics affects the interests of France; it is better than losing on the battlefield and shaking his own ruling foundation.

With a bite and a wit, Major General Oliver now admires his predecessor's foresight very much. He is now firmly opposed to joint action with the French.

The London government was also dissatisfied with the French's approach and exerted political pressure on Napoleon III, asking them to give an explanation.

With the British taking the lead, the Ottoman Empire naturally followed suit.Under pressure from allies, Napoleon III made concessions.

On the battlefields in the Balkans that followed, the French independently assumed the responsibility of blocking the Russians and guarding Constantinople; the British and Sardinians were responsible for Greece and Montenegro; the Ottomans suffered the most losses, so they could draw water to appease them.

War funding, there is no doubt that the British bear 50% of the bulk, France and Ottoman each share 25%, and there is no money for the British consortium to provide loan business.

The clear division of combat tasks resolved the internal contradictions of the coalition forces, and at the same time cast a shadow over the upcoming Crimean war.

...

In just over two months, Prime Minister Felix traveled through more than 20 German states and now came to Frankfurt, the seat of the Federal Parliament.

After such a long period of diplomatic efforts, Prime Minister Felix has gained something. At least several free cities have flags that express their support for the "Holy Roman Empire."

It's no surprise that these free cities are the areas most affected by nationalism, and their government itself is most affected by public opinion.

The remaining states either expressed opposition or hesitated.In short, everyone is a smart person and is looking for excuses to procrastinate. No one foolishly expressed opposition to the unification of the German region.

The Kingdom of Prussia is also not idle. Their representatives often arrive first before Felix, communicate with the governments of various countries in advance, and jointly oppose the reconstruction of the "Shen Luo".

The situation of the high-level people is unclear. Most German people are optimistic about peaceful reunification. The reason is very simple-there is no direct opposition from the state government.

The people can express their opinions freely, but the state government dare not talk nonsense, and it cannot be said that because "Shen Luo" is unreliable, the unification of force can only allow the German region to truly merge?

Austria has been preparing for so long that Franz did not dare to raise the banner of military reunification, let alone these small state governments.

As the object of being unified, the opposition is too late, how can it be supported?Even in order to protect their own interests, they cannot block the road to rebuild Shenluo.

In the unlikely event that reunification is inevitable, the reconstruction of Shinra is the path that best suits their interests, so the attitudes of most German state rulers are complicated.

If you want to oppose the reconstruction of Shinra, you can't say it directly. You can only expect someone to be the first bird to disrupt Austria's plan.

Up to now, the slogan "Reconstruction of Shinra" has been heard in every corner of the German area, and Felix will be warmly welcomed by the local people everywhere.

If this continues, Felix is ​​likely to be the "father of the nation" by future generations, and no one has been called the butcher's reputation.

At this moment, he became a spokesperson for pacifism, and in the future he might become a prime minister, but Franz will not come out to grab the limelight.

Huyou people are not easy, especially Huyou a group of old foxes.Felix constantly promises to various interest groups to unify the various benefits after the reunification, and from time to time to answer your questions.

Boasting to the capitalists the benefits of the big market, assuring the nobility that everyone's interests are not damaged, and selling national dreams to the nationalists ...

In a word-blowing, whether they believe it or not, or whether it can be fulfilled, Prime Minister Felix is ​​enjoying blowing all the way.

To quote a sentence: "Every politician is an excellent salesman."

The dryness of the mouth, in fact, only brought down the resistance of everyone.

Most people still choose neutrality, they can accept the reconstruction of the Shinra, and they do n’t need to talk if they want to contribute.

Everyone is a master who doesn't see rabbits or eagles. Don't expect them to invest before seeing the benefits.

This result, Felix is ​​satisfied.I just wanted them to be neutral, and now I can swindle some of my supporters.

The focus of this public relations is on the area of ​​Southern Germany. This is the most influential area in Austria. There are still many interest communities. It is his real goal to attract these talents.
