Holy Roman Empire

Chapter 560 Introduction

Between the countries, "there are only eternal interests and no eternal enemies." Directly speaking the essence of international diplomacy, this is not just the British and Austrian countries that have been in trouble for the Near East War.

This is not too much. Britain and Austria are allies. Even if it is often unpleasant, it does not affect everyone's happy play together.

If anyone knows that the two countries have made secret contacts, it will surely cause an uproar.Now the Russians are fighting hard to prepare for revenge in the Kingdom of Prussia; and the Kingdom of Prussia is similar, always preparing for war.

However, there is nothing impossible in the face of interests. Even during the Russian-Prussian War, the private ties between the two countries were not broken.

After trying to persuade the Vienna government to send troops to interfere in the Polish throne election to no avail, the tsarist government knew that things were in trouble.

Alexander II was also not a simple character, and he decisively chose to temporarily abandon hatred and use this incident to maximize the benefits for the Russian Empire.

An old man in luxurious clothes said coldly: "How is your consideration, as long as your country is willing to agree to the previous conditions, we will assume that you have annexed Poland."

The middle-aged man sitting right opposite shook his head unmoved: "This is not to allow us to annex Poland, but to divide Poland between the two countries. Your country is too big and just wiped out half of Poland.

How does this allow us to agree?If it spreads, the Polish people will not be upset.Moreover, we are not prepared to annex Poland. This election only respects Polish public opinion."

If there are acquaintances, you will find that the two of them negotiated were the former Minister of the Interior of the Russian Empire, Mikhail, and the former Minister of the Land and Navy of the Kingdom of Prussia, Ron.

The two enemies actually sat together, and calmly negotiated the division of Poland. If this is said, no one would believe it.

Mikhail rolled his eyes disdainfully. Prussia did not have the ambition to annex Poland. This is enough to fool the ordinary people of the outside world. Want to hide the enemy that knows each other the best?

A large group of people in Poland supported William I as king, for a large number of reasons were forced by the Russians.

In the last war, the Kingdom of Poland was the main battlefield, and it was directly destroyed in ruins. Even if the economic losses were irrelevant, the key point was that the losses of the young and strong also exceeded 800,000.

This directly led to the weak state of the Polish kingdom after the war.At present, Ukrainians in China account for nearly one-third. The Poles as the main ethnic group suffered heavy losses due to the war, and the population of the main ethnic group also showed negative growth.

Of course, this is also related to the poor economy in Poland.Especially after the outbreak of the agricultural crisis, Poland's population outflow was serious.In order to survive, many people went to Prussia and Austria to ask for life.

Most of them are women, either voluntary or deceptive, during this period Poland ’s underground population trade was prosperous.A large number of young women were transported overseas by unscrupulous capitalists to engage in skin and meat business.

In this case, the Polish government has repeatedly cracked down, and it still has little effect.When there is demand, there is a market. In the face of survival, dignity is not worth mentioning.

It happened that the tsarist government had completed preliminary social reforms, and as the enemy next door had recovered its strength, those with vested interests in Poland were in a hurry.

Once the Russians came back, everything was gone.Barefoot became shoes, and political positions were inevitably affected.

The Prussians proposed that the two countries form the most reliable alliance, and many people were tempted. They subconsciously ignored the fact that Prussia wanted to annex Poland.

This is determined by interests. Even if the Kingdom of Prussia annexes Poland, the Berlin government will still have to pay for them, but it is much better than the Tsarist government that wants to cut their heads.

The choice of interest groups directly affected the entire Polish society. Everyone never mentioned the fact that Prussia wanted to annex Poland and Russia, and limited the propaganda to the alliance of common kings.

The monarchy system is very familiar to the Poles. The ancestors have played with it, and the acceptance of the people is still very high.

The media are now building momentum, claiming that the Kingdom of Prussia is also part of Poland.The old things that the Kingdom of Prussia once submitted to the Polish flag had been turned out, which greatly satisfied the vanity of the people.

In the short term, it will not be seen. Maybe the time will be long. The Poles regard the Kingdom of Prussia as their own, and the obstacle to the merger of the two countries will no longer exist.

William I dared to pay attention to Poland, not just ambitions. A large part of the territory of the Kingdom of Prussia was old Polish land, but the people above were Germanized.

More importantly, now that the German region has been targeted by Austria, the Kingdom of Prussia simply won't win. The best option is to annex the Kingdom of Poland and exchange it for a vest.

In recent years, the Kingdom of Prussia has not regarded itself as a German state, which is a change in national policy.

This road was not chosen by William I. It was the noble Junker who made this decision.Who can be the younger brother if he can be the master of his own?

The Shinra Empire was good, but it was not their turn to assume power. Austria ’s size is too large. Even if the Kingdom of Prussia joins, it will quickly be diluted and slowly swallowed.

In this case, it is better to switch to another option and play a whole new world. Poland happens to be in this situation.

After looking through the history book, they quickly found the connection between Prussia and Poland, and the legal rationality of unifying the Kingdom of Poland with the Kingdom of Prussia also came out.

Of course, this relationship is far away.The so-called legal reason is that they think they are legal, and the outside world will certainly not recognize it.

This was the battle for the Polish throne. According to the plan of the Prussians, the two nations were promoted first, then the federal empire was formed, and then merged and merged.

The plan was made very clear. William I was just a trader introduced by the Junker nobility. It seemed to have a high weight, but it could not violate the interests of the class.

Mikhail: "Your Excellency, this joke is not funny. If you don't want to annex Poland, then we don't have to talk anymore.

Perhaps it is a good choice to split up Poland again with three companies.I ’m curious when Austria joins. I do n’t know what your parliament thinks?"

Ron changed his face and invited Austria to share the Kingdom of Poland. Even if Prussia was able to annex Poland, it would be a shrinking version. It is unknown whether it can even get the most benefit.

This is a world with fists, if the Russians really colluded with Austria, now no one can stop it.

Seemingly aware of Mikhail's insincere words, Ron responded quickly, and the Russians would not easily invite Austria in.

It should be known that the territory of the Kingdom of Poland was previously the territory of the Russian Empire. If it falls into the hands of the Kingdom of Poland or the Kingdom of Prussia, the Russians still have a chance to take it back.

If it falls into the hands of Austria, in the current situation, it is permanently lost.This is determined by the strength of both parties and will not change with individual will.

"Your Excellency Mikhail, if your country really wants to invite Austria to divide the Kingdom of Poland, you will not lose in the last war.

The price you did not want to pay at the beginning, are you sure that Saint Petersburg can promise?

Moreover, today ’s Austria is no longer the old Austria.Believe it or not to involve the Austrians, the government of Vienna will eat most of the Kingdom of Poland at once.

At that point, we don't have to worry about war between the two countries in the future, let's tremble together in the shadow of the Austrians!

Do n’t forget that the Kingdom of Prussia was once one of the states of the Holy Roman Empire. If we are willing to go back, the Vienna government will definitely welcome you.

Your country is miserable. Do n’t look at Russia and Austria as allies. Once the German region is unified, Austria is the new European hegemon. As a former hegemon, your country is destined to be suppressed."

This is a conspiracy. How could the Russians have no idea about the rise of Austria?If Russian-Austrian relations are so reliable, after the collapse of hegemony, the Tsarist government directly pushed Austria into power.

Obviously, this is impossible. The Russians did not want to see Austria grow, and even if it fell into a state of weakness, it pulled the hind legs of Austria intentionally or unintentionally.

This kind of small action ca n’t hide the Vienna government, but Franz has little interest in continental hegemony. .

As long as you think about the troubles between Russia and Austria in these years, Mikhail would cry without tears.If history can be repeated, he will certainly stop the tsar's small actions.

Apart from deteriorating relations between the two countries, it has no substantive effect, but they just do it.You do the first day, I do the fifteenth, and once the valve of the teammate is opened, it will be out of control.

Once Austria becomes bigger against this background, it is almost inevitable to suppress the Russian Empire in the future.From the point of view of the Tsarist government, the French became better than Europe as the hegemons in Europe.

The tsarist government was too late to suppress the development of Austria. How could it be possible for Austria to continue to grow?

Even Ron offered to threaten to join Shinra, but Mikhail dared not ignore it.This will certainly not happen now, and the future will not necessarily be.

If the Kingdom of Prussia is defeated in the next war, it is very likely to join Austria in order to protect its own interests.

Ron couldn't think of it. The simple provocations made Mikhail think so much.

Wouldn't it be so simple to join Shenluo, unless the mountains and rivers are exhausted, otherwise this kind of thing cannot happen at all.

Austria is not vegetarian, and if the Kingdom of Prussia was sent to the door, it would be strange not to be slaughtered.If it is not possible to directly abolish the kingdom, it will become a province directly under the Central Government.

Do n’t think that the Austrians ca n’t do it.For its own dominance over the Shinra Empire, it is normal to split the Kingdom of Prussia.
