Holy Roman Empire

In accordance with the practice in continental Europe, the negotiation session came next.Especially the Vienna system was re-established again, and the French had to obey this rule.

Ever since the French diplomatic note conveyed, Cavour hurried to Paris to give gifts and public relations.

Still no use, the French bureaucrats are not stupid, knowing what money can be collected, what money can not be collected.Involved in the emperor's assassination case, it is still good to join in less.

The Foreign Minister Cleo said sadly: "Prime Minister, the courtesy is back, these people will not let us in."

This is still relatively subtle, and even more so as to collect the sugar coating and hit the shells again.

In other words, collect the gift, just stuff something into the gift box, and then throw it out with great fanfare.

Expect them to stop dreaming when doing things, these things let them eliminate the fire at most, and less ammunition when clamoring for war.

No way, in order to let the emperor see everyone's loyalty, the slogan must be shouted.Even if the anti-war factions are clamoring now, give the Kingdom of Sardinia some color to see.

Who made the investigation show that someone provided help to the assassin and revealed the whereabouts of the emperor, but this person had not yet caught it.

To avoid suspicion, no one dared to make this political mistake.

Garfur said helplessly: "There is no result on my side either. Napoleon III used the excuse to recover from injury, but this is probably a difficult thing to do.

However, we have no choice.Since the French did not dare to accept it, they gave gifts to the representatives of various countries. At this time, do not save money.

Feeding them, even if it is just a word for us at the meeting, it is worth it."

This is the most effective means of garbage.Now the Kingdom of Sardinia is unable to exchange interests with other countries, and it is even more impossible to affect the diplomacy of all countries.

In this context, only the representatives of various countries have been bought.Now European governments are very angry about this assassination, and at the same time no one wants to see France continue to expand.

Even Cavour himself was very angry about the assassination, and he didn't have any good feelings about the so-called patriots.

If possible, he didn't mind killing those guys directly, a hundred.For the French to punish the murderers, Cavour is not prepared to argue at all, as long as it does not expand.

He could not endure only the request of the French government to cede the land.Originally, the unification of the Italian region was far away, and now if the land is ceded, there is really no hope.

Clio said in a low voice: "Prime ministers, the French are also doing public relations. I'm afraid it is difficult to compete with them.

The Austrian representative Martic was Lombard this time, and he was the representative of the anti-Sasarist group in the Vienna government.The Vienna government sent him to be a representative, which is probably related to Fawmi.

In this negotiation, the Austrians are afraid they can't count on it.Even we have to worry that France and Austria have reached an agreement to divide us."

Lombard is in Italy, but Lombards are not equal to Italians.To be precise, this is an independent people, a member of the Germanic people, originated in southern Sweden.

In the independence movement of 1848, the Lombards were divided, some supported the Vienna government, and some stood on the side of the Revolutionary Party.

Undoubtedly, Martic can support the Habsburg dynasty.As a member of vested interests, he naturally opposed the unification of the Italian region.

In the last Osage War, the invasion of the Sardinian army caused disaster to his hometown. After the pain of the skin, hatred of the Kingdom of Sardinia became inevitable.

Faced with such an opponent, Garfur also had a headache.Want to flicker, do not know where to start.

On national unity in Italy?Others don't think of themselves as a member of the Italian nation, even the cultural traditions of the Lombards are influenced by Italian culture.

This is useless, and now the entire Lombard Kingdom is de-Italizing and returning to the German cultural family.

After thinking about it for a while, Cavour said cautiously: "This information is very important. We must notify the British immediately. Tonight, I personally went to the British Embassy to discuss countermeasures."

A Frenchman is about to die, and another Austrian is really helpless.In addition to looking for the British boss, Cavour is now powerless.

This is not because his personal ability is not strong, it is because the enemy is too strong, the kingdom of Sardinia is too weak, and he is not even qualified for equal dialogue.

Now that the British want to protect the Kingdom of Sardinia, it is no longer just a strategic need, it is still kidnapped by debt.

After the Osage War, the economy of the Kingdom of Sardinia collapsed, relying solely on the renewal of British capital.The Sardinian government naturally borrowed, and now the kingdom of Sardinia is almost a semi-colonial British.

Tariffs, salt taxes, tobacco and alcohol taxes, railroads, and ports were mortgaged to the British. Once the kingdom of Sardinia is over, the tens of millions of pounds lent by the British will all be floated.

Unless the London government is confident that France and Austria can repay the money, the British consortium will not tolerate the end of the Kingdom of Sardinia.

There is no doubt that neither Napoleon III nor Franz can be the wronghead.

This is aggression, not inheritance.There has never been only an heir who inherits debt, and no one has heard of the aggressor still having to bear debt.

Involving huge sums of tens of millions of pounds, the British have a bad face.To be precise, as long as the interests are involved, the British have a bad face.

...

On the other side, Martic and French Foreign Minister Auvergne had a great conversation.Under the premise of the Vienna government's support for the French government's annexation of the Kingdom of Sardinia, it was difficult for the two to talk.

In return, the French government promised to open several overseas colonial ports to provide supplies to the Austrian navy.

The Vienna government had previously reached agreements with the three countries of Spain, Portugal and the Netherlands. Together with this agreement with the French, the Austrian Navy has the ability to enter any ocean in the world.

Strategically, this means that the Austrian Navy's globalization strategy has taken another step forward.

Of course, the French will gain even more.Now as long as Napoleon III can withstand the pressure of European countries, he can eat the Kingdom of Sardinia.

Then, the rebellion was slowly suppressed.Anyway, French man-made counter-experience is rich, and exchange with the Italians, maybe a new spark will burst out.

It doesn't matter if you can't withstand the pressure, at least the road to the Anglo-French alliance is broken.An arrogant Frenchman cannot always be a younger brother to the British.

Especially after damaging their core interests, even if Napoleon III no matter how pro-British, the two countries will stand up in political diplomacy.

The atmosphere in the British Embassy in France is very strange.

In order to give the platform to the Kingdom of Sardinia, the British Foreign Secretary Thomas personally came to participate in this Paris meeting, and he came in advance.

Thomas solemnly asked: "Prime Minister Caffure, are you sure that what you just said is true?"

He must be careful, if France and Austria reach an agreement to divide the Kingdom of Sardinia, they will be passive.The London government could do nothing but roar.

The only way to do this is to break the joint of France and Austria in advance, or to put pressure on the European countries to force the two countries to make concessions.

Whatever the result, it is not what the London government wants to see.As for the Kingdom of Sardinia, their ending is very obvious, nothing more than a question of how much to lose.

Diplomacy failed, losing all the family's money; diplomatic success, heaviness ended.It is impossible to assassinate the emperor without paying a price, the French still have to give face.

Garfur said with a weeping face: "Mr. Thomas, how can I be joking about this kind of thing?"

This is the worst case, and he doesn't want to see it, how could it be fabricated out of thin air?Vienna arrested the news of the charcoal assassins. They didn't know it, otherwise the two would not be puzzled by the Vienna government.

Without this excuse, Franz wouldn't be able to do so smoothly even if he wanted to count the French.

The opposition of the Vienna government against indulging France is not small, even Franz cannot ignore everyone's voice.

After the assassin was arrested, the situation was different.In order to be politically correct, everyone stood on the opposite side of the Kingdom of Sardinia.

Thomas wandered a few steps, and then said: "The Austrian government must have changed. Not long ago, our ambassador to Vienna heard from the news that the voice of the Austrian government that advocates restricting the expansion of France also dominates.

With the old fox of Metternich, he couldn't help but know the threat of letting the French expand.

During the last Osage War, Austria had the opportunity to annex the Kingdom of Sardinia, and they all gave up.It is enough to prove that the Austrian government has no ambitions for you.

Now the Austrian government has not changed the border at all, and none of the cabinet members have changed. Political positions cannot change so fast."

Thomas' analysis is very thorough, and the political position cannot be changed at will, which is also accompanied by the concept of governance.Under the stable structure of the Austrian government, it is even more unlikely that things will change over time.
