Holy Roman Empire

Chapter 310: The Pit That Must Jump

The fighting power that a strong government can explode is often beyond imagination.With the order of Franz, the trade volume between the Austrian-African colony and the American countries suddenly became active.

A large number of labor export companies have settled down in the Austrian colonies and exported the surplus local labor to the Americas and the Arab world.

With the joint efforts of everyone, the embarrassment of the lack of labor in various countries has clearly improved.Under the new labor export model, the prices of international slaves have all declined.

The labor export company is actually forced out, as it is said that there are policies at the top and countermeasures at the bottom.

The Vienna government banned the slave trade. In order to bypass the legal provisions, the flexible slave traders immediately changed their vests.

The name of the labor export company appeared in the Austrian colony, and it continued to carry out its business with grandeur.Anyway, after leaving the Austrian colony, they went with them.

In the end, these immigrants became slaves or contracted workers, depending on which country they went to.

These things are not within the scope of the colonial government bureaucrats. Anyway, their task is significant. It is impossible to reduce the three-tier indigenous population within five years without hard work.

Especially when the colony is still expanding, this pressure is even greater.The Colonial Department assigned tasks to each colonial government, and the Ministry of Finance also allocated 2 million Aegis of immigration special funds each year.

All the income generated in the immigration work belongs to the individual.Officials with outstanding immigration business capabilities are directly promoted, and those who cannot complete their tasks are removed.

Regarding everyone's job, no one dares to take it lightly.Moreover, there are still huge benefits in it, and how much you can get depends on your own ability.

From 1859, the Austrian colonies began to madly export immigrants to the outside world.

Take the United States as an example: in 1858, 183,000 immigrants from Austrian colonies were accepted; in 1859, it surged to 346,000; in 1860, it increased to 378,000 ...

The direct consequence of this policy is that when the American Civil War broke out, the number of whites in the country fell by more than half a million from history, while the number of blacks increased by more than one million.

Benefits are always the best catalyst.Obtaining black slaves from colonies in other countries also pays heavy taxes, and even bribes colonial officials to export labor in the Austrian colonies, but can receive subsidies.

The colonial army also frequently attacked the indigenous kingdom.

At the end of 1859, Yosip Jelacic also enacted the infamous move law.

The law stipulates that immigrants, military personnel, and government officials are attacked by locals, and all indigenous tribes within a radius of 50 kilometers will be forced to relocate.

This directly aroused strong protests from labor export companies. How can the good labor force be expelled?

During the implementation of the colonial government, changes inevitably occurred.Anyway, it is relocation, and it does n’t matter where I ended up. The same goes for labor export companies.

There is nothing to say. In this era, the colonial governments of various countries are no cleaner than anyone else.Without genocide, it would be considered harmonious.

...

With the support of the Russians, the Indian Uprising once exceeded two million, occupying more than half of the Indian region.

There is no doubt that this is a crowd.Only the number of troops has gone up, the combat effectiveness is a mess, and the weapons and equipment are shattered by the Russians. On average, three people have a rifle.

After the rebels took the upper hand, the British displayed their most provocative dissent.The insurgents, who were not affiliated with each other, soon fell into a struggle for internal rights and lost the best opportunity to expel the British from India.

The responding John Bull continued to increase troops to the Indian region, and the early strategic advantage gained by the Uprising was wasted in the inner battle.

The next step is to show the comprehensive national strength.By 1859, the British had invested 350,000 troops in the Indian region and gradually gained the initiative on the battlefield.

Franz, who received the information, can only lament the strength of John Bull.In the case of the labor expedition, so much troops could actually be invested.

Needless to say, only the British can do such a generous job.Obviously, the tsarist government's approach has stimulated the fragile nerves of the London government.

Directly told the Russians with actual actions. If you want to snatch India, first think about how many troops you can invest in this area!

Thinking of this, Franz just smiled coldly.The British's wishful thinking this time, I'm afraid it is wrong.

Nicholas I was not a soft persimmon. His successor, Tsar Alexander II, was also not a fuel-efficient lamp. He wanted to intimidate them for fear of dreaming.

Historically because of the defeat of Crimea, the Russians licked wounds on one side and supported the Indian rebellion with limited strength, so that the British quickly suppressed the rebellion.

The current tsarist government is also licking wounds, but Nicholas I, who captured Constantinople, is in full swing, suppressing internal conflicts.

Coupled with the financial support provided by Austria, the tsarist government ’s finances are not as sad as in history, and it can still be done with a sum of money to support the uprising army.

Moreover, India is not poor at all.There are many loot in the hands of the rebel army, which can be used to buy weapons and ammunition.

If the Indians are more upset, they still have a chance to win the war.Anyway, as many of them die, as long as enough cannon fodder and British consumption are organized.

In any case, with the support of the Tsarist government, the Indians can still support it for some time.

Thinking of this, Franz had some contradictions again.On the one hand, he wanted to consume the power of the British and shake the British hegemony; on the other hand, he did not want the British to decline, otherwise the main force of interference in the American civil war would be gone.

In the heart of this contradiction, the Vienna government adhered to the principle of neutrality, did not support any party, and once became a mass-eating crowd.

With a sigh, Franz ignited the information in his candlelight, and then said: "The Indian question ends here, just keep the daily information passing.

The next task is the United States. If conditions permit, they can add a bit of chaos to us. We are for the time being supportive of plantation owners in the south."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Tylen replied

This task is very troublesome, and the transoceanic telegraph has not been connected, and communication has become the biggest problem in the transmission of intelligence.

When the ship sent the news from the Americas back to the country, the daylily was cold, and Franz had to choose to decentralize.Whether or not you can achieve results is entirely up to you.

In terms of short-term benefits, the capitalists who support the North may have greater interests. They have won the United States, and cotton, tobacco, and grain exports will all fall sharply.

As a competitor, Austria can obtain huge economic benefits.

But in the long run, a unified United States is terrible.The kingdom of heaven is not nonsense, they do occupy the most fertile land in the world.

Even if the entire German region is unified, Austria cannot compare with them for development potential, which was determined innately.

Even if there is no war on the European continent and it has been developing steadily, it is only a matter of time before it is surpassed by the United States.

Unless Austria can swallow half of the African continent and digest it perfectly.Thinking of this, Franz thought it would be better to split the United States.

Even the United States, which is divided into two, still has the potential to become a world hegemon.There is no way, the natural conditions in the United States are really superior.

Even if it splits the United States, the strength of both the North and the South will gradually increase over time. Expecting the South to check and balance the North Government after independence will be a dream.

Even how long this independence can be maintained is a serious problem.In terms of development potential, the capital economy in the north far exceeds the plantation economy in the south.

When the strength of the two sides is seriously out of balance, as long as there is a strong leader in the north, the united war will still erupt again.

Franz wanted to cry at the thought of this, co-authoring to intervene in the American Civil War, not only just once, but it would turn into a bottomless pit.

At this time, Franz understood the history of Napoleon III.Perhaps it was the terrible sight of this pit that led him to choose a better bully in Mexico.

The French suddenly withdrew, and the two countries immediately became dissatisfied.Okay, everyone interferes in the American Civil War together. Did n’t you run to attack Mexico?

After the lack of the main force of France, the two countries also played a retreat, and the three countries intervened in the coalition and disbanded without entering the field.

Then, the European countries sat and watched the American Civil War.The London government wanted to intervene on several occasions because of internal disputes, which were delayed and the war ended without waiting for them to make up their minds.

"Do big things and take care of yourself, and see little profit and forget your meaning."

It's about Napoleon III, how can it be possible to take advantage but not risk?

Knowing that there was a pit ahead, this time Franz decided to jump.There is no way to compromise between the two.

No matter whether the intervention succeeds or not, it will bring greater losses to the United States and delay their development.

If you are lucky, you will make a lot of money. Immigrant countries like the United States are not strong in centripetal force.The united war cannot be fought indefinitely. After two or three failures, the people will no longer have the courage to start the war.
