African Entrepreneurship Record

Although the mutiny in Vinnitsa was large in scale, the Russian government, which had a large number of troops, suppressed it in just one day.

Since World War I, there have been many mutinies on the Russian front, including the participation of the Russian military, the propaganda war of the Allies, and the shadow of the revolutionary party. However, mutinies of the scale of Vinnitsa are still rare in Russia at present.

On July 28, 1916, the Russian government announced that the planner of the mutiny, Ilya, and 26 others were guilty of treason and executed.

In Russia, Nicholas II was also furious and demanded that the military and government departments thoroughly investigate corruption and other issues. Of course, the effect was just a lot of thunder and little rain, but the supplies on the southern Bug River front did increase a lot more than before.

The East African government was also very concerned about this military rebellion in Russia, or Ernst himself was more concerned.

Ernst said to Friedrich: "A country may be big, but it will perish if it loves war; the world may be peaceful, but it will be in danger if it forgets war. The current situation in Russia vividly demonstrates the previous point."

Friedrich said: "Father, isn't that a bit exaggerated? It's just a small military rebellion. It shouldn't pose too much of a threat to Russia! After all, this kind of situation is common in the two major camps. Even Germany has deserters."

Ernst said: "It's still a little different. Russia is now like a powder keg, and the entire Russian system is still loading gunpowder. As for Germany, unless there are huge difficulties in the supply of materials, Germany will basically not have too many problems, at least after the war. "The war not only failed to divert Russia's social contradictions, but also exacerbated them. If the Tsar chooses to cease fire at this time, there may be room for maneuver. If the war continues, it will be a loss for both sides." "The Russian revolutionary party and the people will actively promote this corrupt empire into the abyss. When the war situation is unfavorable, there are still capitalists watching covetously." This is Ernst's interpretation of the current situation in Russia from the perspective of God in his previous life. In his previous life, there were two political parties in Russia, but in the end, the revolutionary party had more cards in its hands. After all, on the one hand, they could satisfy public opinion and withdraw from the war, and at the same time, they sincerely wanted to change the current situation of the country in the early stage. The capitalist group does not look at the problem in this way. They will not empathize with the front-line soldiers, but pay more attention to the interests in the war, which leads to their final chess game and lose to the revolutionary party. Of course, these have nothing to do with Ernst. Ernst is most concerned about the fate of the Russian royal family. Ernst always feels that Russia is going to follow the old path of his previous life, and it is very likely that the time will be advanced. After all, the current situation in Russia is much worse than in his previous life. "Friedrich, invite members of the Russian royal family to East Africa in the name of the royal family!"

Ernst still hopes to have more cards in his hand. After all, if the Soviet Union appears, it will not be a good signal for monarchs all over the world.

"Who to invite?" Friedrich asked.

"Crown Prince Alexei, or several princesses of Nicholas II, can do it. Anyway, they can't play any role in this war. I think Nicholas II should have no reason to refuse."

"Will this cause misjudgment by Germany and Austria?"

"There is no need to worry about this. After all, Alexei is only twelve years old. What can he do! He is also a victim of hemophilia. Queen Victoria is indeed a cancer of the European royal family. Otherwise, we might have considered marrying the Russian royal family."

Ernst didn't have a good impression of Victoria, the "old witch". After all, during the reign of Queen Victoria, the relationship between East Africa and Britain was the worst. The two countries also fought a war. This was also the only time that East Africa had a direct war with other powers. Of course, East Africa was not considered a member of the powers at that time.

Friedrich did not refute his father's words. He said, "I'll arrange it right away."

Ernst suddenly stopped him and said, "Let's wait until the end of the year!"

Ernst suddenly changed his mind because he had a new idea. Even if East Africa really invited people, they might not stay in East Africa for a long time. In this case, it would be useless to do it, so it would be better to postpone it. "Let's not talk about this topic for now. What is the current situation in East Kalimantan?" Ernst asked.

Friedrich said, "The large-scale turmoil has basically ended. We have already started the development and immigration activities in East Kalimantan."

East Africa launched a bloodbath in East Kalimantan. This kind of genocide was only dared to be so unscrupulous at the critical moment of World War I.

Friedrich went on to say: "The biggest problem for East Kalimantan at present is population. Chinese immigrants are easy to find, and European immigrants can barely keep up. So far, we have immigrated nearly 30,000 white people to East Kalimantan."

"Most of them are war refugees, but it is still unknown how many can be retained in the end."

With the development of the local economy in East Africa, only a few immigrants from East Africa want to develop colonies, so they can only think of ways to deal with war refugees.

But these war refugees are just helpless choices. When the war is over, they may return to Europe. Of course, the premise is that the economic strength is enough to pay for the ticket.

Ernst said: "The construction of several overseas colonies should be accelerated, especially the population problem should be solved first. Now that the situation in Russia is deteriorating, we can think of more solutions."

The Russian people have always been high-quality immigrants. After all, Russians account for a large proportion of the original shares of white immigrants in East Africa.

Although the environment of several colonies in East Africa is not very good, it is much better than Siberia in Russia.

"The conditions in East Kalimantan are still very good. There are resources and land, which can support industrial and agricultural development."

After all, if the environment is bad, it is estimated that Indonesia in the past would not consider moving the capital to East Kalimantan.

"For East Kalimantan in the future, my plan is to let your brother inherit it, so that we can support a Hohenzollern Kingdom in the Nanyang region, cooperate with the current Lanfang Overseas Province, stabilize our position in the Nanyang region, and consolidate the status and bond role of the royal family in the mainland."

The East African colonies in the future must be transformed, either as the mainland or transformed into normal countries. After all, far away from the mainland, these places are easy to be disunited.

Friedrich had no objection to this. After all, he would inherit the Rhine Empire, the biggest asset, and his brothers' establishment of their own businesses overseas would also help the royal family's position in the empire.

This is similar to the British royal family in the previous life, which was the bond that maintained the Commonwealth countries. Of course, East Africa will go a step further. After all, the establishment of new kingdoms will still be part of the Rhine Empire in name, and will be closer to the various states under the Holy Roman Empire.

Ernst has three sons who can be enfeoffed overseas, and the third generation is beginning to appear. Therefore, establishing a large empire system of the Hohenzollern family will help consolidate the international status of the Hohenzollern family in the future.

Just like when European nobles fight, they can pull out a group of relatives to help. Fighting alone will eventually suffer.

Especially in the case of the increasingly declining monarchy, especially if the situation in Russia in the previous life happens in the future, and they are directly wiped out by others, then Ernst will not be able to laugh.

Ernst said: "In the Far Eastern Empire, a region with a long history and serious internal circulation, the history of the Zhou Empire tells us that although the feudal system has risks, it is most conducive to the continuation of the remnants of the old era like us. The history of modern Europe also illustrates this point. Therefore, eggs cannot be put in one basket. This is also one of the family's retreats."
