Holy Roman Empire

The formation of alliances cannot be accomplished in a single stroke of the head. We must carefully weigh the pros and cons among them, especially the alliance targets are British.

It is not the first time that Britain and France have formed an alliance. According to the previous alliance experience, the result of each alliance is not satisfactory.

Napoleon IV was not bewildered by the English language and rhetoric, no matter how blown it was, it would only be counted when it was real.

As long as Britain and France form an alliance, Britain will support France's expansion into Central Europe.Such a large stuffed cake, Napoleon IV did not believe it would hit his head for no reason.

It was also because the stuffed cakes were so large that Napoleon IV was reluctant to discard them.

Prime Minister Terrence Burgin: "Your Majesty, the British proposal seems to be beneficial to us, but it is actually a scourge.

On the bright side, we are supporting our expansion into Central Europe. In fact, we are letting them contain Austria for them.

Judging from the current international situation, once we expand into the Central European region, we will be subject to joint hostility from European countries, and even trigger a new round of European war.

If the situation is out of control, I really have no confidence in the British. With their style, if they do n’t fall into the trap, it will all be ... "

This is a fact. The name of the anti-French alliance has survived. It is based on the premise that France does not pose a threat to everyone.

Once they show their teeth and make the European countries feel threatened, this nominal alliance will immediately become a real alliance.

Expect the British to challenge the European continent together with France, it is better than France to single out the European continent, at least do not worry about being stabbed by allies.

Luskinia Hafez, the Secretary of the Army: "Prime Minister, everything has two sides. Britain is certainly uneasy and kind, but if we make good use of it, we can also benefit a lot from France.

Although there are many European countries, most of them are small countries, and only a few are worthy of our attention.

Except for the three major powers of Russia, Austria, and Britain, the remaining three countries of Spain, the Nordic Federation, and the German Federation can only add up to half.

Among them, Spain is our ally and will not prevent us from going east; the Nordic Federation is far in the Baltic Sea, there is no conflict of interest, and it is a target that can be won.

The British can use it to contain Austria, how can we use them to contain the Russians?

As long as Britain and Russia hit a real fire in Central Asia, Austria alone would be unable to prevent us from annexing the territory west of the Rhineland.

It ’s not a big deal for us and Austria to rule by the Rhine, and in the style of the Habsburg dynasty, most of them will not die with us.

As long as we won the Rhineland and Belgium, one of our most important short versions of resources will be made up."

There is naturally ambition.It's just that the derivation of the main battle in France is not in time, and it hasn't caught up with the good times, and has never been given the opportunity to display.

Waiting for the left, waiting for the right, finally ushered in this transfer.From the French military's point of view, this is what the British and Russians are holding back against each other, which is clearly creating opportunities for the decisive battle of France and Austria.

With the old enemy of the Habsburg dynasty, France ’s European hegemony status has never been deserved, and it must be witnessed by a war.

Of course, this is not the time to say this.It ’s not good if your emperor is frightened. After all, Austria still looks big and good at pulling allies.

If there is a decisive battle immediately, although the military is full of confidence, there are still many people in the government who are not optimistic.

Luskinia Hafez is still very politically minded, in order to reduce resistance, there is no mention of the decisive battle of Fa'ao.

He even changed the concept and turned the decisive battle between Fau and Austria into a division between Germany and Austria.Not only does it downplay the risks, but it also gains the support of domestic capitalists.

Economic Minister Elsa objected: "No, it is not the time to move east. Our ranch plan is in progress. Once the war is interrupted, all the previous investment will be floated.

The German Confederation is not as weak as everyone thinks. They deployed 70,000 troops in the Rhineland region. Together with the 50,000 troops deployed in Belgium, the total strength is as high as 120,000.

As long as the war dragged on for a month or two, Austria's reinforcements came up.Everyone saw the Russian-Russian War. Unlike in the past, the two major powers now have a decisive battle, and the movements are all millions of troops.

Once a war breaks out, it is impossible to distinguish between victory and defeat in a short time.There is a group of allies in Austria that can share the pressure, but we can only fight alone, the British can't count on it.

Expecting the Austrian government to compromise is completely wishful thinking.Sit back and watch our annexation of the territory west of the Rhine. Why did the Habsburgs rule the German region?"

The worry of the economic minister is also the reason why everyone hesitated.Putting hope on Austria's compromise is not reliable in itself.

Against any enemy alone, everyone has confidence in France, but the problem is that the enemy wants to play group fights!

This year, the countries on the European continent are more able to fight. Even Belgium, which is a small projectile country, can pull out hundreds of thousands of troops.

In the larger Nordic Federation, as long as internal relations are coordinated, one million troops can be pulled out.

Not to mention Austria, millions of them are easy anyway.If other countries join in the excitement, France will face an astronomical enemy.

The French army could fight again, and could not stand the ants biting the elephant.

What's more, the French army was not able to fight that way. The performance of the French army in overseas colonies has caused many senior government officials to doubt the French army's combat effectiveness.

One-on-one can win without any value. Once the European War breaks out, the enemies they face must be at least twice, or even three or four times.

Foreign Minister Karel Kadletz interrupted: "Everyone, you are too far away. It's as if we have to ally with the British to launch the European War.

In fact, this is totally two things.What we are discussing now is whether we should form an alliance with the British. As for the expansion to Central Europe, that is the future.

Personally, I agree with the British alliance.France needs more allies to get rid of its isolation.

Perhaps the British were surreal, and this time they formed an alliance with us, only to counter the pressure that Russia and Austria put on them in Central Asia.

But apart from the British, we have no better choice.

Do not expect the British to really support our expansion to Central Europe, as long as we are going east, they will not join the anti-French alliance.

Moreover, the alliance with the British does not mean that we really have to cooperate with them.

Austria has no interest in Central Asia. Participation is entirely due to the Russian-Austrian alliance, and they cannot fight the British for the benefit of the Russians.

The British want us to contain Austria, so we do it symbolically.Anyway, the Austrians also want to contribute to the outbreak of the Anglo-Russian War, and we can cooperate."

The reality is cruel, but it must be faced.France is indeed strong, and so strong that it has no friends.

The promise of the British may not be fulfilled, but with this ally, the diplomatic environment of the French government will be greatly improved.

In essence, both parties take their own needs, and if they do not delay, they will be worthy of this paper covenant.

...

Vienna Palace, since receiving the news of the intention to form an alliance between France and France, Franz has been bad for the whole person.

It seems that Europe has formed two opposing camps. In fact, the geographical position is determined. The Russians can hide behind. Austria must bear the pressure of the two big powers alone.

The threat on land is not obvious, and the fighting force is still French, and the British can ignore it.

It is different at sea, as the Austrian Navy is about to have the strength to threaten the Royal Navy. As the two countries form an alliance, they will have to act with their tails together.

This means that in overseas competition, Austria will once again be at a disadvantage, unable to compete with Britain and France.

Not only that, but Franz thought more.As France and Austria continue to grow, the British have felt the pressure.

In this context, it is not impossible for the British to conspire to provoke the French-Austrian War and use the war to weaken the two enemies.

The Anglo-Russian confrontation will contain each other, so why not create an opportunity for France and Austria to turn their heads?

Regardless of the severity of the British-Russian conflict, even if the war between the two countries really broke out, once the situation in Europe is out of control, the two countries may still unite.

Provoked the war between France and Austria and waited for the two countries to fight almost, and then pulled the Russians to intervene, so as not to allow the two countries to win or lose.

If Franz is in the British position, he will do the same.If France and Austria are to continue to grow, where in the future will there be opportunities for Britain to intervene in continental Europe?

Guessing is always just speculation. Before things happened, Franz did not dare to draw conclusions easily.

The French are not fools. With a fisherman on the side, running against Austria is obviously not in their own interest.

The same is true in Austria, unless the brain is flooded, otherwise the Vienna government will not be stupid to run to attack the French.

...

Foreign Minister Weisenberg: "After many verifications, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has determined that the UK and France are in talks to form an alliance.

The content of the specific negotiations is unknown, and what is certain is that there must be content specific to us.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has repeatedly tried to disrupt the alliance between Britain and France, with little success.Even our proposal to reorganize the alliance of the three countries was rejected by Britain and France."

If it cannot be destroyed, we will try to join in, and then split the alliance from within.This kind of tried-and-true diplomatic approach will not work here.

However, this also corroborates the fact that the British-French alliance is aimed at Austria.

Prime Minister Karl: "The alliance between Britain and France cannot be prevented, so the importance of the Russian-Austrian alliance has greatly increased.

From now on, not only the Russians need us, we also need the Russians.

In the following Central Asian War, we had to make great efforts to support the tsarist government.

The four major European powers are now divided into two major alliances facing each other.I am afraid that for a long time to come, the international situation will be in turmoil.

Once confronted with the escalation of the gun, it may even trigger a new round of European war.From now on, we need to plan ahead."

There is no way that the international situation is not dictated by individual will.Although Franz had been trying to avoid it, there was still a confrontation between the two major leagues.

In a sense, this result is not too bad, two to two is better than one to three.

The British and French are now forming an alliance. The first to be hit is the Russians. The relationship between the British and French and the Russians has deteriorated.
