Chapter 396: Learn to be a fisherman (the leader of South Street, Gaggen 4)

The suddenly prosperous East Prussia Wharf quickly caught the attention of the Berlin government.Such immigrant immigrants cannot be kept secret at all, and the news was naturally leaked out early.

In the protest book of the Kingdom of Prussia, Franz did not treat it as one thing at all, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs directly replied: It has nothing to do with us, so go to the Russians.

That's right, if it wasn't for the Russians to go backwards, it would be impossible for such a large-scale flight to happen even if they could be fooled again.

One million East Prussian people can testify that they left in order to escape, and Austria is only doing humanitarian relief.

"Russian-Austrian deal", is there evidence?There is no evidence to talk nonsense, there is a price to pay.

From beginning to end, the Vienna government did not show up.Organizing the people to leave were all merchants from East Prussia, as well as local churches.

Berlin, since I received news from the East Prussia region, William I's face has never been better.

The Russians don't care about the population of East Prussia. That's because they are large, and these people are a problem for them.

After sending away all the locals, Alexander II could also use the land of East Prussia to reward the heroes.

The Kingdom of Prussia is different. They have a small population, and the East Prussia region is the core area that they are painstakingly managing.If there is no population in East Prussia, they cannot find someone to fill.

In addition to occupying the two principalities of Schleswig-Holstein and adding some Germans, there are few Germans in other regions.

Prime Minister Frank said: "Your Majesty, the question of East Prussia is still to be considered later. Now it is important to win the war. At present, we are beyond our reach."

Prime Minister Frank sees the problem very accurately. The population in East Prussia is gone. The sequelae are very serious, but that is based on the premise of winning the war.

If you lose this war, it will not be their place anyway, and these troubles will naturally no longer exist.

William I shook his head and said, "No, we must take action to delay the migration speed of the Austrians. Otherwise, when our army is over, the area will become a white ground."

Fortunately, this war was provoked by the Junker nobles, otherwise the core area of ​​the Junker nobles was lost, and William I really had no way to explain them.

Now, his approach is nothing more than stating his position and conducting a political show for the nobles of Juncker.

It is a joke to stop the migration of Austrians.Since the Russians occupied East Prussia, immigration activities have already begun.

At first, hundreds or thousands of people left, and now tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands leave together.If you really want to stop it, you don't have to wait until now.

It was only that William I knew that he could not stop it at all, and it might cause more trouble, so he chose to be confused.

Now that things are going wrong, the lid can't be covered, so I have to take the problem to the surface.

...

The final result is of course no result. Apart from calling the local people to boycott immigrants, in fact they can do nothing.

Even this call may not be passed on to the people.The Russians will not help them to propagate. Once the people of the Prussian government enter the East Prussia area, they will face the pursuit of the Russians.

The people of East Prussia, the Russian army has helped them make a decision.In order to speed up the pace of immigration, the Russian army organized a grain collection team and began to leave the country.

Unlike the previous looting of property, this time it is completely to cut off the possibility of their stay.Don't leave quickly, or you will be hungry after a while.

The grand immigration campaign continued until the end of September. More than half of the population of East Prussia had arrived in Austrian Africa, and a small portion was allocated to the South Ocean and Central America.

Concentrated placement does not exist, and Franz is not stupid, how can it be possible for them to leave the opportunity to hold a group?Of course, in order to let them find a job better.

After all, most of these immigrants are old, weak women and children, and finding a job is not easy.If they are placed together, where are there so many suitable positions for them?

It is easy to disperse and difficult to gather.These immigrants are everywhere in the South, the North, and the Sea. After the war is over, it is estimated that many Prussian soldiers will have to travel thousands of miles to find relatives.

...

Schönbrunn Palace, looking at the aggregated data, Franz is very satisfied.According to incomplete statistics, during this war, Austria fled about 800,000 immigrants from the Kingdom of Prussia, of which there were 730,000 in East Prussia.

It's impossible to evacuate all. There will always be diehards who don't want to leave. Franz never likes to be tough.

Since he chose to stay, it is not his business.Whether these people can survive this war depends on whether God has blessed them.

The only regret is that the Danes have lost too fast, otherwise they can still emigrate a large group of people from the two principalities of Schleswig-Holstein.

Up to now, what Austria lacks is no longer land and resources, and a high-quality population is what Austria needs most.

Franz wanted to unify the German region, mainly for the population.Otherwise, the 400,000 square kilometers of land is not worth paying attention to.

Especially the bad strategic position is even more prohibitive.If Austria is sandwiched between France and Russia, then North Germany is sandwiched between Britain, France, Russia and Austria.

It can be said that the unification of the German region, Austria's defense pressure must be at least doubled, or even more.

The Mediterranean region does not need to face the British at least. Once the Suez Canal is open to navigation, Austria's strategic environment can be further improved.

As for worrying about the British blockade, it is totally unfounded.To block the Strait of Gibraltar and the Suez Canal at the same time, unless the Royal Navy comes out of the nest, it will not be possible at all.

It is now the 19th century, not the 21st century. The deployment of a fleet can block the coastline, which is simply a myth.

Others dare not say that raising a navy with half the strength of the Royal Navy, Franz is still confident to do it.

As a land-powered country, Franz dared to take naval stud and fight a war of losing both sides. Would they dare to take risks in exchange for the British?

Once the Royal Navy is seriously injured, what do they rely on to guard the vast colony?In the face of interests, European countries will not be polite to them.

This is also a factor of Franz ’s crazy immigration, in order to worry that one day he will fight with the navy power, and the navy is unable to guard the security of the colony.

It's time for the army to join.Any decent colony can build a decent force. Who dares to touch this nail?

Strategically, the stronger the strength, the harder it is to fight.In particular, let countries realize that after the high cost of war, the possibility of war breaking out will be further reduced.

This year, farming is king, just bully the weak.If you go shopping with a powerful country, even if you win the war, you will lose in strategy.

This is the experience that Franz summarized. For details, you can refer to the Near East War and the ongoing Russian-Russian War. The final winners are fishermen watching the drama.

Franz admits that he is a fisherman who is addicted and does not want to go off to risk himself.This is not a bad thing. A good politician must learn to be a fisherman.
