Holy Roman Empire

Chapter 554 Farce

In Paris, the French are holding a funeral for Napoleon III.The dense crowd outside is enough to prove the popularity of Napoleon III.

On this day, the French workers had a collective holiday, and the capitalists wanted to leave without it. The title of Napoleon III as the "socialist emperor" was not a joke. The influence among the workers exceeded anyone else.

The spontaneous organization of mourning activities by the people, compared with the desolation of the original time and space, have to say that this is a satire.

Although there are many people attending the funeral, there are very few guests.The sequelae of the Bonaparte family's bad relationships are most vividly reflected here.

The royal families in Europe seemed to be very busy. Except for the food that was attached to the French, the rest of the nobles just sent representatives to attend, and some even did not bother to send them.

Taking the Habsburg family as an example, Franz sent a side count to deal with things in the past.Even if the two countries are allies, the royal families of the two countries still cannot change each other's eyes.

The grievances in it are just a confusing account, which is unclear for a while.Not only the Habsburg family, most European nobles were unfriendly to the Bonaparte family.

The nobles are also vengeful. Napoleon swept across the European continent. I don't know how many people had lost their jobs. How could this account be forgotten?

If the Bonaparte family has also fallen, it is estimated that everyone will feel better.The result is quite the opposite now. The Bonaparte family is still glorious. Seeing this upstart, everyone is too late to be jealous. How could it be possible to give them a support.

The original time and space Napoleon IV died in a gold-plated accident in South Africa, but it was in full swing. Many people speculated that the British royal family planned the murder.

The reason is: when Napoleon IV encountered the Zulu warrior, Army Lieutenant Carey and his men were only 50 yards away from Ou Ren, but they were withdrawn to the camp without a shot.

There must be an article behind this apparently abnormal behavior. Who planned it, it is hard to say.

There are too many enemies in the Bonaparte family, and those who are capable of planning such low-level accidents are at least three figures.

No way, the last heir to the heir died, and the Bonaparte family not only lost hope of restoration, but also lost the ability to trace the real murderer.

At the funeral, the atmosphere was a little weird.If someone pays attention, you will find that many people have a sullen expression on their faces. If the occasion is not right, I am afraid they will laugh.

That's right, some people come just to watch jokes.Napoleon III had just left the European Union Crown Prince, who was about to succeed, was too young, and the French government was bound to have fierce battles.

For example: Victor Emmanuel II, former King of the Kingdom of Sardinia, came to see the excitement.Napoleon III drove him out of office. He had hated it for a long time, and now he came here and smashed it.

Unabashedly put a smile on his face, completely ignoring Ou Ren's murderous eyes.Europe does not have the habit of killing a monarch, even if he is a former king, he is also a monarch.

As a member of the remembered interest group, no matter how angry Ou Ren is, it is impossible to kill the king.It is still the funeral scene, so it is even more impossible to do it.

Perhaps in the eyes of many people, this approach is very unwise.This has stimulated others, can't do it on the bright side, can't secretly retaliate?

However, Victor Emmanuel II had reasons to do it.Now he led the Sardinian Restoration Organization, and the Italian Revolutionary Party has united.

Now that the Italian independence movement is at a low ebb, as the leader of the public launch, Victor Emmanuel II must do something exciting.

The funeral of Napoleon III was used by him, and he was able to mix in. Naturally, some people cooperated, and there were more people who wanted to see the Bonaparte family ugly.

After attending the funeral anyway, he left with the guests.If the French want to intercept it, it is better to hype up the public opinion. Countries that want to watch French jokes will not give up this opportunity.

...

Franz did not care about the farce at the funeral of Napoleon III. This is a minor issue.That is to say, taking a small four-year-old, can not be stimulated, if you change an old fritters, you will never pay attention.

They have wiped out the kingdom of others and have taken away their throne. Are they not allowed to have a little temper?

Isn't it just a smile next to me, and didn't run out to make trouble, disrupt the funeral order, just treat these guys as air.

If you want to settle your account, you must be in a hurry.As a French emperor, is it too easy to crack down on a few leapfrog clowns?

As long as their financial resources are cut off, the custody of these guys will soon cry.You ca n’t do anything about the killing of the king, so let them worry about the rice, oil and salt every day for the rest of their lives.

The life of the exiled monarch is not easy, and there are a large group of people who follow the meal, and it is impossible to have no money.

Franz has seen this in this regard, Massimiliano has failed so much, and hundreds of people have come running one after another.

If it was n’t Franz, who often paid for it, the Empress Sophie also secretly subsidized it, not to mention keeping the emperor ’s appearance and allowing so many people to eat, it would not be easy.

These people shouted, wanting to counterattack Mexico, really want them to implement, fart useless.But there is no way, it must be nurtured.

Don't look at the ability of these people. There are these people, and there are no such people. Those are completely two concepts.Without these people helping to shake the flag and shout, what should I do?

Franzken paid for a group of idealistic mouth-to-mouth parties, that is, to let these people promote Massimilino's reform measures, whether they are practical or not, not in line with Mexico's national conditions, at least on the surface it looks very good.

People who eat melons who don't know the truth can easily be biased because they can't think of deep-seated problems.

Of course, these people's activities in Austria are also restricted, and they can't go anywhere. The articles they write are all published selectively.

A large part of them were sent to France for further study by Franz, and they were known to study the restoration experience of the Bonaparte dynasty.

At present, the results are quite good. Massimilino's reorganization of Mexico has been established, and it has attracted many Mexican students to participate.

It's better than the bad times. Looking at the domestic warlords playing that hi, these people finally found it better to be the emperor.

Affected by public opinion again, many people thought about it and found that Massimiliano I did nothing bad.

As the newspaper said, the local warlords in Mexico were so powerful that the emperor ’s orders could not be implemented.

Because they opposed the emperor's reforms, the conservatives and the warlords rebelled together, and the Revolutionary Party were all fooled fools.

Behind this, Franz sponsors Massimiliano 200,000 Aegis every year. It can be said that public opinion was pulled back by money.

Victor Emmanuel II's pressure will be much greater, one is not practiced, the other is taking practical action to restore the country, and the expenditure is not a grade.

Although there are a lot of gold sponsors secretly, but the amount is not large, and Victor Emmanuel II, who has a large group of people, is short of money.If you do n’t have enough money, you must create a topic, mobilize everyone ’s patriotic enthusiasm, or increase the investment of the master.

As long as the source of funds is cut off, the momentum of these recovery countries will immediately drop by many grades, after all, people also have to eat.

...

Intelligence leader Talen: "Your Majesty, the Prussians have acted. In recent days, Polish newspapers have been scolding the government and attributed the chaos in Poland to the absence of a king, and high-level government officials fighting for power.

The foundation of the East Brovsky government was unstable, and it was the support of public opinion that barely won the election. The Prussians held the public opinion, and they now hope for international interference.

However, Napoleon III had just died, and everyone was paying attention to the future political trend of France, and he could not care about Poland for a while.

If there is no accident, the Polish parliament will resume the election of the king within a month. This time there are far fewer competitors. The election of William I is almost doomed."

The number of competitors has decreased. This is not because the Prussians made a ghost. It is because many people were scared by the chaos in Poland and did not want to go to the muddy water.

Do n’t look at how long Bobo ’s independence has been. It ’s a lot of things.In the international arena, it is as if they are already a member of the great powers.

The self-proclaimed sixth strongest country in Europe, second only to the five countries of Britain, France, Europe, and Russia, has never considered the feelings of Spain, the German Federation, and the Nordic Federation.

Even the insignificant small countries of the Netherlands and Portugal may not be as good as Poland in overall national strength.Don't look at their narrow population, but they have colonies, and their economic strength exceeds Poland.

Even if it is a need for publicity, it is acceptable to exaggerate its own strength.Not long ago, the diplomatic oolong, Austria almost used force against Poland, which made many people understand.

The Kingdom of Poland looks good. It is also a medium country on the European continent. In theory, as long as it develops well, it is possible to join the power clubs.

But the geographical position is really too bad, sandwiched between the three countries.The sudden conflict between Austria and Poland reminded many people of the old tripartite division of Poland.

Bad location + love to die, clearly is a huge pit.No one wants to be the king of the country. After weighing the pros and cons, many people choose to give up.

Franz picked up the teacup and took a sip: "Continue to stare, don't move. The secret on the other side of the UK can be launched. When William I is elected King of Poland, it will be launched immediately.

Pay attention to hiding and don't expose us.It is better to let the German Federal Empire take the initiative, they jump out and compete with the French for the Rhineland region.

We and the British received the news that the French would buy the Rhineland. In order to prevent the French from continuing to expand and support the German Federal acquisition of the Rhineland, it is much more reasonable."

Austria has a great influence in the German Federation. Many nobles and senior government officials have secretly contacted the Vienna government. It is not difficult to push them out. The problem is that it is difficult to keep secrets.

No one can guarantee that these people will not leak.Betting separately has always been the way of life of these people. While maintaining contact with Austria, it has not dealt with other forces.

The front foot promised to keep it secret, and the back foot sold the secret. This kind of thing should not happen too much in continental Europe.

In particular, this kind of thing that affects the country ’s decision-making cannot be done by one or two people. There are too many people who need to be launched. If someone leaks it, it will be difficult to find out who the traitor is.

Intelligence leader Tylen replied thoughtfully: "Yes, Your Majesty. We will first expose the Pfak secret trading, and then let the British push the German Commonwealth to compete."

The Berlin government issued a blank cheque, which is not important, as long as everyone thinks it is true.

Facing international pressure, if the Prussians dared to hard-top, Franz would dare to join forces with various European countries to send troops to intervene.From the beginning, he was prepared to force the Berlin government to abandon the Rhineland region.

In the 19th century, if a country wanted to be strong, it must first have enough coal and iron. Without these things, heavy industry cannot develop.

The original space-time Germany can develop, the most important thing is that they own the coal and iron resources of the Rhineland region, and then the glory of the Ruhr industrial zone.

In a short period of time, this part of the resource is missing, and the effect may not be obvious. With the further development of industrial technology, sequelae will erupt.

Even if it annexed the Kingdom of Poland, it could not make up for this loss of resources.Coal mine resources in Europe are mainly distributed in England, Central European Rhineland, Ukraine, Silesia, and the Balkan Peninsula.

Unfortunately, the Donbas coal field in Ukraine is still far away, and the Kingdom of Prussia is out of reach.The Silesia region fell into the hands of Austria again. After losing the Rhineland region, the Kingdom of Prussia will sooner or later delay industrial development due to coal problems.
