Holy Roman Empire

826 Chain reaction

I have to admit that the bear's deterrent is strong. A little action has caused panic in the European world. Many people are worried that the international situation will be broken again.

Whether it is receiving warships or expanding in Central Asia, they are proclaiming to the outside world that the daring Russian Empire is back.

When the Russians want to make small moves in Central Asia, it is Britain that bears the brunt.Boss is not a good thing, you have to start when you should start.

Prior to the comparison, the Gladstone Prime Minister now has much more confidence.There is no other reason, because there is money in his pocket.

In this anti-Semitic movement, the British government also achieved great results. The old debts were directly cleared by one third, and the government's finances became more abundant.

It is natural to spend money, and only the money spent can be turned into achievements.

Unless there is an accident, every qualified British prime minister will be left with debt for the next term.

Gladstone is no exception. This was not immediately after making a fortune and approved the "Food Self-Sufficiency Plan."

In order to enhance the competitiveness of his own agricultural products, Prime Minister Gladstone also submitted a "Draft Grain Subsidy Draft" to Parliament.

That is: subsidize growers through the government's distribution of cash, seeds, fertilizer, etc., and encourage people to invest in farms in the colonies.

The parliament is still under discussion. Once the draft is passed, the British government can bypass the free trade system, support its own agriculture to achieve food self-sufficiency, and get rid of dependence on Russia and Austria and other grain-producing countries.

Gladstone dare to propose such a plan, there is naturally a reason.

"Grain self-sufficiency" is just a guise for the clear face. The real reason is still the impact of "Aegis-Gold System" on "Pound Sterling-Gold System".

The native area of ​​Britain is small, and most of its natural resources, except coal and iron ore, rely on imports from outside.

Affected by this, Britain spends most of its time in a trade deficit.For world overlords, this is a trivial problem, and it can be solved by printing money.

Regrettably, Britain's world dominance is not stable. It has been challenged by the three countries of Russia, France and Austria, especially Austria, the Aegis-Gold system has threatened their currency hegemony.

In the past, everyone had no choice.In the case of insufficient gold reserves, he had to hold a large amount of pounds. Even if the British government printed a little more votes, it would not hurt.

Not now. Under the impact of Aegis, in order to stabilize the value of the British pound, the London government has dared not increase the leverage of issuing notes.

The ability to print money is limited, and the trade deficit is particularly dazzling. Without pulling out this nail, British capital will flow out.

Of course, this little problem, for Britain, which has a big business, can support it for a while, after all, they are still in a state of excess capital at the moment.

However, how can the far-sighted Prime Minister Gladstone let this kind of thing go on for a long time?

To calm the trade deficit, there are only two ways: either reduce the import of commodities; or increase the export of commodities.

Obviously, the earth has been divided up, and the so-called "international market" has only one corner left, and most of the areas have become colonies of various countries.

If you want to increase the export of commodities, you can only fight against many competitors in this corner.

Unfortunately, as European countries have completed industrialization, market competition has become increasingly fierce.

Not to mention the continued expansion of merchandise exports, even Britain ’s current market share is being squeezed out by competitors.

Of course, the economy is moving forward. Although the market share has declined, Britain ’s total exports are still increasing.

The rate of increase in imports is much faster than the rate of increase in exports, and the trade deficit is still increasing.

In order to prevent the outflow of wealth, Prime Minister Gladstone only accepted the "grain self-sufficiency plan" under the influence of economists' suggestions and domestic public opinion.

"What is the news about Russia's expansion into Central Asia?"

Without bragging, Gladstone really does not know why the Russians are now expanding into Central Asia.

In his view, the Tsarist government did so, either the brain was flooding, or the knife that bullied Britain was not good, and there was a very small possibility that Austria was playing tricks.

But these reasons are justified.The war is money. The British army may not win the Russians in Central Asia, but the British government can drag the tsarist government to bankruptcy.

Even if Austria is willing to support the Russians, the Vienna government will not be able to do all it can to smash money.One hundred and twenty hundred million may be affordable. If it is one billion eight billion, the Vienna government will be 100% counseling.

In the final analysis, it is still profit, and the effort is proportional to the gain.The blind effort does not pay off, and normal people cannot hold it.

Foreign Minister George: "For the time being, the true purpose of the tsarist government has not yet been determined. Based on the analysis of the data collected, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs believes that this is likely to be a test by the Russians.

Perhaps it has something to do with the anti-Semitic movement not long ago, and the tsarist government should have taken a backseat and became restless again."

The Prime Minister of the Colony Primrose denied: "I think this is not just a temptation, I am afraid that the Russian ambitions can't bear it anymore.

You know, this is not the first time.After the third Near East War, the Russians also extended their hands to Central Asia.

Although the tsarist government stopped small movements under our intervention, their sphere of influence in Central Asia expanded.

According to the information reported by the Indian Governor, the Russians have eaten at least 50,000 square kilometers in Central Asia in recent years.

If we do not draw attention, and find ways to cut off the Russians ’ambition to expand to Central Asia, I am afraid that the Russians will annex Central Asia again.

Now the Nordic Federation, Northern Germany, and Austria have formed copper walls and iron walls, blocking the Russians ’westward path.

To the east there is the Siberia and Far East blockade of the ice world, and the harsh weather conditions have restricted the Russians from going east.

If the tsarist government still wants to continue to expand, leaving them with a strategic choice, it is left to go south to the Indian Ocean.

Both Persia and Central Asia are likely to be the targets of the Russians' subsequent expansion.

Compared to Central Asia, the Persian region also has Austrian power. If the Russians do not want Austria to participate, the best option is Central Asia."

I have to admit that the colonial minister's analysis was very reasonable.

After the defeat of the westward hegemony in Europe, the most suitable direction for the expansion of the Russians is Central Asia, followed by Persia, and then the Far East.

There is no need to doubt. Open the map to know that this is God ’s arrangement, and violation of God ’s arrangement will be punished by harsh natural conditions.

Feeling a bit wrong, Gladstone couldn't tell what was wrong, but it didn't prevent him from making a decision.

"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued an official note to the tsarist government, ordered the Russians to withdraw from Central Asia, and warned the tsarist government not to play with fire.

The eleventh division stationed in India was ordered to immediately rush to Central Asia and join forces with countries in Central Asia to hold military exercises together."

...

The British government moved, and the French government was not idle.Of course, the French do not care about Central Asia, and France's tentacles cannot reach the Central Asian region.

After launching the anti-Semitic movement, the French government's finances turned over.With the money, Napoleon IV started a big move.

The urban reconstruction plan of the Napoleon III era was restarted again. This time it was not just Paris that was transformed, but many large cities in China were covered.

Trapped in funds, the slow progress of the big farm plan immediately allocated funds to speed up the progress.

The ongoing reconstruction of Egypt has also been fully expanded, not only to clear the river, but also to restore the farmland after the flood.

Even the towns, plantations, roads and bridges destroyed by the rebels were in the post-war reconstruction plan. For a time, there was a boom in the construction of Egypt and alternative prosperity.

Affected by this, refugees from the war also got jobs, livelihoods fell, and the situation in Egypt suddenly stabilized.

There are advantages and disadvantages. As the first anti-Semitic prologue, Napoleon IV dared not go out recently.

In the past month, he has been assassinated four times.If it wasn't for the influence of scruples, he would have already killed him.

It should be known that although the French anti-Semitic movement is very powerful, not many Jews actually killed, and most of the victims were low-level civilians.

Napoleon IV only asked for the money of the Jewish capitalists. It was not as dark as the neighbor next door.

Regrettably, his self-considered tolerance was not forgiven by the Jewish capitalists. Instead, he was greeted by assassination after another.

In the temporary palace, Napoleon IV roared: "Adonis, do you eat shit in the police department!

After such a long time, I haven't found the hands behind the scenes. Are you planning to keep me from going out?"

Police Minister Adonis looked bitter and didn't know how to answer.I do n’t know when the position of police minister became a hot potato.

In the last ten years, the French government has replaced 17 police ministers, with an average term of 7 months.

This number is still declining, and Adonis has no confidence in whether he can stay in this position for a full term.

"Your Majesty, we have rigorously interrogated the assassins, and according to the information they confessed, they were all killed when they found the connector.

The suspect locked by the police went abroad long before the assassination broke out.The murderer is very cunning, so ... "

Napoleon IV interrupted: "So you will find nothing, and then tell your emperor that it is dangerous outside recently, don't go out first?"

Adonis shut up directly. The form of Paris is very complicated, full of forces from all sides. Most of these forces are enemies of the Bonaparte dynasty.

Perhaps these forces generally would not send people to assassinate the emperor, but it would still be possible to pull the hind legs for Napoleon IV.

The police have been unable to find out the results for a long time, and naturally these forces will cause trouble.

Without the restraint of these forces, the assassinations of the Jewish capitalists, repeatedly and repeatedly, have long been exposed.

After a fierce ideological struggle, the Minister of Police Adonis said slowly: "Your Majesty, although there is no definite evidence, but from the perspective of the motive and strength of the crime, the black hands behind the scene are mostly Jews. Jewish ... "

This is the easiest way. If you can't find evidence, you won't find it. Whoever has the motive and strength to commit crimes will arrest them first.

People catch it and check it slowly, there will be results sooner or later.Even if it is not clear who is the real murderer, it doesn't matter, just kill all the suspects.

It doesn't matter if you kill the wrong one, anyway, you are all enemies.Just take precautions and eliminate hidden dangers in advance.

Napoleon IV shook his head: "No! The government has reached an agreement with the Jewish capitalists and made a promise to ensure their personal safety. We cannot regret it."

Cunning rabbits have three caves, not to mention the Jews who are often "killed".

Most Jewish capitalists do not put eggs in a basket. In addition to the assets on the bright side, there are also many secret industries.

Napoleon IV did not send people to stare at the Jewish capitalists, and he did not waver for decades. Naturally, the copyists could only copy the properties on the bright side.

If it encounters a ruthless person who needs money and can't squeeze out oil and water, in order to stabilize employment, the government will have to spend money to keep it running after confiscating factories and enterprises.

Against this background, most of the real bad luck in the anti-Semitism movement were mostly ordinary Jews.

The powerful Jewish capitalists already have the capital to negotiate conditions with the government, for example: to buy a life money in exchange for the government to protect their personal safety.
