Holy Roman Empire

The War in the Near East has become fierce. Apart from the attention of politicians, it has not attracted the attention of the people who eat melons.

The Habsburg dynasty and the Ottomans are feuds, the tsarist government and the Ottomans are also feuds, even Greece and Montenegro are also the feuds of the Ottoman Empire.

With common enemies, it is normal for the four countries to form an anti-Turkish alliance.If you open the history book, you know that these countries are fighting Ottoman every three to five.

Ottoman has fallen, and was forced to withdraw from the Balkan Peninsula as early as the first Near East War. The Asia Minor Peninsula is still too far away from everyone.

The hotspot of public opinion was the French Revolution. Although the Paris Commune movement ended, the political impact it brought was far-reaching.

The destruction of the Palace of Versailles, which seemed to be a vent of revenge, actually pulled the majesty of the monarch off the altar.

The revolutionary party members who were unwilling to fail, seized the last aftermath, vigorously promoted revolutionary ideas, and governments of all countries were busy fighting fires.

These breaking things do not seem to have anything to do with the Anti-Turkish Alliance. Newspapers have always followed sales, and the news around them is far more noticeable than the news overseas.

The people of all European countries focused their attention on the revolution, while the people of the four countries of the Anti-Turkish Alliance stayed on the Near East War.

Human beings have always been the most vengeful creatures. Ottoman, a villain, has successfully attracted everyone's attention, so that everyone has no time to care about revolutionary ideas.

Fortunately, the information has not been transmitted this year, and everyone's understanding of the outside world is not so detailed. Otherwise, if the news is spread, it will definitely cause uproar.

It is perfect to find an old enemy to fight a battle, and to transfer internal conflicts and avoid the spread of revolutionary ideas.

Of course, this method does not necessarily apply to France.Their rivals are too strong, and none of them are irritating.

The prerequisite for the transfer of contradictions in war is that you must win. If you lose, you will be finished.

...

In the Royal Palace of Berlin, Frederick III is making the final ideological struggle: whether he will join forces with Hanover to form the North German Empire.

Every time he thought of this, he couldn't help but complain about his father's pit son.

Imagine that Metternich proposed the division of the German region by Puo in the past, because of a series of factors such as uneven distribution of stolen goods and opposition between Britain and France, it was decisively rejected by the Berlin government.

Who can know that today, thirty years later, because of the government's mistakes in decision-making, it has once again returned to the issue of establishing North Germany.

The same North German Empire is actually completely two species.The territory of the German region was not lost, and it was even larger than the split plan proposed by Metternich that year, but Prussia shrank by more than half.

Affected by this, Prussia, which should have dominated North Germany, is now a vassal of Hanover.

What is anti-guest is the foolish words of Frederick, and Frederick III will not believe a word.

Being able to guarantee the independence of Prussia, even if God bless.You know that Hanover is Britain ’s son, and Prussia is the most godson, at least in the Victorian era.

In this era when the powers dominate the world, the importance of the backstage is self-evident, leaving the Berlin government with few options.

For the relationship between the Russian-Russian war, the tsarist government in the east is definitely an enemy. Even if you do n’t cause them trouble, even luck, do n’t think about support.

The formation of North Germany will definitely offend Austria. Do n’t look at what the Vienna government did not do. Frederick III knew that there must be a problem.

France, which had high hopes from the Berlin government, had a sudden revolution without waiting for them to rely on it.

Every time he thought of this, Frederick III secretly rejoiced that he did not take this step, otherwise even the British boss would be offended.

Prime Minister Leo von Caprivi suggested: "Your Majesty, since you can't figure out the plans of the Austrians, it is better to show them off directly.

The Vienna government wanted to unify the German region, but now they are not ready. They are worried that they will be boycotted by European countries before taking this step.

Now France in the west is greatly reduced by the influence of the revolution, and Ottoman in the south is about to finish. If the Vienna government can stabilize the Russians, their chances of reunifying the German region are not low.

In our current situation, we can only stand on the side of the winner.

Many German states in the German region have been attracted by the Austrians. The Vienna government has refused to bid on us. They should not believe us."

People can change. Under the social beating, the Great Prussian thought has vanished.

Even the noble Junker nobility had to enter a dormant state because of the defeat of the war.

After the politicians came to power, the Berlin government was no longer as radical as it used to be and became more practical.

Frederick III shook his head: "It's not that simple, the French did not really hurt their vitality, and after three or five years they were able to relax.

No matter how good the relationship between Russia and Austria is, it will not stand the test of national interests. Perhaps in a short period of time, the tsarist government will be forced to accept Austria's reunification of Germany and become the European hegemon.

But they always have a day to recover. Will the Russian Empire, which has been slowed down ten or twenty years later, accept Austria's exclusive European hegemony?

There are British people, do you think it is still far from the Anti-Austrian League?

Napoleon has lost to the union of European countries. With Franz's cautious temperament, how can he take risks?

Unifying the German region is not only the beginning of the peak, but also the prelude to the end.

Without full assurance, Austria will not do it, otherwise they will unify the German region."

After speaking, Frederick III pointed at the map and said nothing.

The person who knows you best is not your friend, but your enemy.

Pu'o is also an old opponent. The Berlin government has always attached great importance to intelligence gathering in Austria, including studying the character of Franz.

Knowing more, Frederick III was basically able to judge the ideas of the Vienna government.

All the enemies on the north and south lines have been resolved through diplomatic and military means. Why not wait for the remaining enemies to be wiped out before taking action?

Looking in the direction of Frederick III's fingers, Leo von Caprivi could not help but blurted out and said, "India!"

After talking, he seemed to realize that he had lost his word. Leo von Caprivi fell into silence. There was only one concept in his mind: the Austrian made a move.

This is the terrible thing about Yangmou. Everyone can see it clearly, but they can't bear the interest temptation.

As early as the first Near East War, the Russians were pitted by Austria, but even if they were pitted, Russian-Austrian relations remain unaffected.

The reason is very simple. The Russians obtained the benefits promised by the Vienna government and were willing to be pitted.

No matter how heavy the loss is, can it be compared to Constantinople?

As long as the benefits are in place, the loss is nothing.In essence, the potential strength of the Russian Empire has also grown, but it will take time before it can be converted into national power.

Knowing that, the Berlin government did not mean to remind the British.Some time ago, they had just put the British together, and the relationship between the British and the British was not so harmonious.

...

The Berlin government has analyzed it, and the London government can also analyze it. Of course, the two are in different positions and come to different conclusions.

The Berlin government suspects that Austria will encourage the Russians to annex India, while the London government believes that Austria is eyeing India.

After all, this is the richest colony in the world, and it is richer than other colonies combined. The Vienna government has no reason to be ambitious.

While supporting the Ottoman Empire, Glaston also abandoned his "glory isolation" policy.

These are the six principles he proposed before ascending to the position of prime minister:

1. Establish a good government in the country;

2. Maintain peace abroad;

3. Maintain coordination among European powers;

4. No alliance with other countries;

5. Recognize the equal rights of all countries;

6. Freedom of sympathy.

There are two basic points of these six principles: First, coordinate good offices among the countries of the European continent to establish a so-called "coordinated Europe";

The second is to avoid alliances with other European countries in order to maintain their freedom of movement and achieve "glory isolation."

However, the plan has not changed quickly, and Glaston's policies haven't had time, and the international situation has turned sharply.

If the policy of glorious isolation was still the best choice for the London government before the outbreak of the Near East War, then after the outbreak of the Paris Revolution and the establishment of the Anti-Turkish Alliance, there is no longer any possibility.

Facing the increasingly severe international situation, the British urgently need allies to contain Austria in the European continent to ensure the security of India.

Throughout the world, there are three so poor countries that have the ability to contain Austria, except for Britain itself, there are France and Russia that are not in the state.

Glaston put his hands together on the table and said seriously: "You, it's time for the multiple choice question.

Britain needs a strong ally to cope with the subsequent international changes. Now let's choose one among the three countries: France, Russia and Austria!"

There is no problem, Austria is also one of the options.In the English dictionary, enemies and friends can be converted.

When a country is so strong that it cannot be suppressed and cannot be an enemy, turning the enemy into a friend is also one of the options.

Foreign Minister George took the lead in answering: "Prime Minister, this is a multiple-choice question, we have no choice at all.

With the fall of France and Russia, the situation on the European continent has become clearer, and the unobtrusive Austria has become our biggest threat.

Of course, it is not ruled out that the Austrian Empire is also confusing.

It's just that this possibility is very small. Austria hasn't been chaotic in the European Revolution, and I don't think they will have problems within a short time.

At this time, our alliance with Austria will undoubtedly further promote their arrogance.

The Russians are also not a good choice. The interests between Russia and Austria are too closely linked. Before the restoration of strength, the tsarist government is difficult to stand against Austria.

Moreover, the credibility of the Russians is too poor, we do not have the ability to collect debts by force, blood transfusion to them is bloodless.

In fact, we have only one option left: France.

Judging from my personal senses, the ambitious Frenchman is also not a good ally.

To support them needs to bear a lot of risk, the possibility of anti-bite is very high, we must grasp this degree."

Not only want to pull allies, but also worry that allies will take advantage of the opportunity to expand, in order to balance the London government for the European Union is also broken.

Chancellor of the Exchequer Xiaozhi Childers objected: "Isn't it good to encourage the arrogance of Austrians?

You must know that this is an enemy different from the past. After the outbreak of civil unrest in France, Austria has become a substantive European hegemon.

However, this hegemony is different from the previous European hegemony. The Austrians dominated European affairs through the Vienna system.

This restraint has given Austrians a good international image in front of European countries, and even they have maintained good relations with every European country.

In the face of such enemies, containment is the worst choice. No one knows how many allies they can pull out. The best choice is to let them make mistakes themselves."

"Bad kill" is the lowest cost option, but the prerequisite is that it must be able to kill, or else only "stick" will be left, then the loss will be great.

After hesitating for a while, Glaston shook his head: "The success rate is too low, and we cannot hope that the Austrians will make mistakes.

If they fail to make mistakes, we will release a monster by our own hands, and finally bite ourselves.

No, Austria is already a cannibal monster, and it is also a monster that is good at disguising.

We were deceived by their disguised appearances before, so that we are only now aware of their threat."
