Holy Roman Empire

After receiving the news from the Prussian government, the Austrian government's top officials felt bad for an instant.

Can the British do this? Everyone had no doubt at all, John Niu's martial arts were only so high.

At the last Frankfurt meeting, the British made a proposal to split the German Federation. In order to implement this plan, they are now applying diplomatic pressure to the Kingdom of Prussia, which is completely normal operation.

Franz was also taken aback. It was because the British were totally motivated to do so. This was determined by their national policy, the Continental Balance Strategy.

According to this plan, the Federal Republic of Germany became a large country and two middle countries. While having some strength to prevent France and Russia from continuing to expand to Central Europe, there is no possibility of threatening their status.

This European pattern is theoretically the most stable. No matter which country, France or Russia, expands to Europe, it will be resisted by at least two of them, plus the support of the British is appropriate.

Whoever wants to unify the German region must be prepared to single out the major European powers. Even if Austria has the support of the Russians, it is impossible to succeed.

It is not that Franz underestimated himself. The scattered small German states were not a concern. But once they merged into one country, they could pull out 300,000 to 400,000 troops even if they were scrap.

Coupled with the participation of Britain and France, unless it is Austria that pulls up the kingdom of Prussia to divide up this new country, otherwise it is Russia-Australia VS Britain-French + Germany, and there may even be other European military forces.

Franz was unquestionable about the British's means of pulling allies. It is estimated that Belgium and the Netherlands will join in the process of preventing the reunification of the German region. Maybe Switzerland will attack Austria's knife.

Where is the odds? Anyway Franz was not found. Unless the battlefield is placed in Russia, the enemy may be frozen to death in winter.

Of course, the Austrian government has not advised.

The Russian Empire is also a continental hegemon. In the eyes of everyone, there is no problem for the Russians to single out Britain and France on land. Austria can equalize Prussia and Germany.

In their opinion, the only troublesome geographic location. I was afraid that the British and French would let the Russians not fight, and they would arrest Austria to die.

It is always good to have confidence, at least to prove that the Austrian empire has not fallen, and the pride of the great powers is still there. If the government persuades the news, then Franz really can't take it.

Metternich said angrily: "Your Majesty, in the current situation, we need to pull the kingdom of Prussia. As long as they persist, the sinister intentions of the British will not be realized."

Although he had previously opposed the expansion into the German region, but before that, since the signing of the Russian Olympiad, Metternich has slowly changed his position.

He knew that Austria could not turn back, and had no choice but to expand its forces abroad and build its strength as much as possible. And going west to the German region is an essential part of this strategy.

Without the population of the South German region, Austria wants to expand externally. It is estimated that it will take two or thirty years to implement the Balkan strategy.

For such a long time, the strength of each country has no idea how far it has grown. In this age of weak meat and strong food, once left behind, it means that danger is coming.

The Prime Minister Felix thought for a while and said, "This news was released by the Prussian government. I am afraid they do not want to compromise.

Mr. Metternich, based on your knowledge of the Kingdom of Prussia, if we now propose to divide up the German region, what is the probability that he will agree? "

Metternich analyzed: "It depends on how it is divided, but I guess it is difficult to reach an agreement.

The failure of the Putin war hit the Prussian military's radicals, but they still have a great influence on the government.

According to the original plan, we will annex the South German region. The North German region can eat as much as we can. Even if we make concessions now, we will give up the North German region at most.

These benefits may not be enough to feed the Prussian militants, but many in the Prussian government should be satisfied, not everyone is so ambitious.

If the British exerted more pressure on them, there might be someone in the Prussian government who would force Frederick William IV to compromise with us. "

Now the relationship between Pu and Olympics is still going on. Everyone is secretly playing against each other secretly, but their faces have not been torn on the bright side, and we are still cooperating on many issues.

According to the British plan, the Prussian kingdom was almost out of the hair and was driven out of the German Federation.

Together with the Austrian government to divide up the German region, you can also obtain a wealthy North German region, while increasing the population of the Kingdom of Prussia by half.

These gains can also make the Kingdom of Prussia go one step further and gain a foothold among the powers, but it is not as embarrassing as it is now.

Franz thought for a while and said, "Then first contact the Prussian government secretly, they are not clear about the Russian-Olympic Treaty.

Even if the news of the German region is divided up, as long as we do not admit it, Britain and France will not be able to treat us. "

Lord Louis proposed: "Sir, if we do something now, will it be better for us to use the British to kick the Kingdom of Prussia out?"

You can eat it alone, why should you take it apart?

If Britain and France join forces to persecute, Austria is under attack, and the two or five babies of Bavaria, the Kingdom of Prussia may not really be able to withstand the pressure.

The Russians will certainly not support Prussia this time, and for no other reason, Her Majesty the Tsar is revengeful.

The **** nature of the Russian bureaucrats for making flattering things will probably be done first, and then report to Nicholas I.

Specific circumstances, you can refer to the last Christmas gift, the Russian representative forced the Prussian government to withdraw troops before Christmas.

Eating a solitary food is naturally good, but just be prepared to be stabbed behind the kingdom of Prussia. If you can suppress Prussia, you can certainly do it.

As long as the Austrian empire is as strong as one or two points, and the Russian empire has not really fallen, then Franz does not mind eating a solitary food.

Franz shook his head and said, "It's not that easy. At this critical moment, it is better to have one friend than one enemy.

After Austria's annexation of the South German region, our strategic objective has been achieved, and the northern German state gave up, and so did it.

Too greedy is easy to be stung. Our hole card was the Russian-Olympic Treaty, but the Russians may not be that reliable.

In case they can't do their job at that time, and they don't suppress the Kingdom of Prussia, we will fight on two fronts. "

Under normal circumstances, the Prussian government will not agree with Austria's distribution plan, but once the news of the Russian-Olympic Treaty comes out, the Prussian government will definitely compromise.

This is the reality, even if Britain and France make more promises, it will have no effect.

Who brought the Kingdom of Prussia too close to Russia and Austria? If they dare to mingle with Britain and France, it is estimated that they can't wait for the reinforcements of Britain and France, they will end in advance.

The Nordic Three-Court Alliance was actually determined by geopolitics. Austria and Russia joined forces. The Kingdom of Prussia did not want to fall into danger and could only join this alliance.

Otherwise, after the conclusion of the Russian Olympiad, the first reaction of Nicholas I would not be the joining of the Kingdom of La Prussia. This is not a good relationship between everyone, but the possibility of the Kingdom of Prussia joining.

Because of the Putin war, the Tsarist government had to temporarily abandon this tempting plan, and the Russians were still worried that the Prussian government would leak the news.

The Russian strategy will be difficult to succeed without being caught off guard by Britain and France. If there is blood transfusion in Britain and France, the combat effectiveness of the Ottoman Empire can not be underestimated.

This is also the key to the success of the Austrian government's westward strategy. After all, they are behind the Russians, and Austria will not act until the British and French teams pass and the Russians start.

Benefiting from the Vienna system, the French military strength was greatly weakened. Now their army is quite a lot, but the mobilization mechanism has been broken.

In order to avoid the suppression of European countries, Emperor Philip had not deployed a large number of troops on his homeland, let alone a large reserve.

The French's active army is also more than 300,000. Once they send more than 100,000 to fight the Russians, they can interfere in Austria's army.

Mass production causes qualitative changes. As long as Austria is adequately prepared and enough troops are mobilized, if the French intervene, they will simply go back.

The French defeated almost once. By then Napoleon III had no time to extinguish the fire in the country.

As for the Kingdom of Prussia, Franz was preparing to start the operation, first placing 500,000 troops on the border between Pulau and Austria, and then using strategic materials to seduce the Russians and concentrate the Eastern Front troops on the Purussia border.

If Austria were to eat on its own, the Kingdom of Prussia would probably take a military adventure and break it. But now Franz has left them a benefit, and the Prussian government can only compromise.

Everyone has a home and a job, and it is not the middle two who are in charge of the Prussian government. How can they take risks blindly?

Even if they are radicals, it is estimated that they have to eat the North German region first. As long as this bait is eaten, the Kingdom of Prussia can only stop and digest the results.

...

The Prussian government, which had intended to join Austria, would naturally not reject the olive branch thrown out by the Austrian government.

Facts have proven that the Austrian government's judgment on the Kingdom of Prussia was wrong. After the failure of the Putin war, many people within the Prussian government lost confidence in the strategy of unifying Germany.

This is the sorrow of small nations, which cannot afford failure. After failure, everyone's confidence is gone.

We must know that as soon as the Armistice Treaty between the two countries was signed, the internal contradictions of the Kingdom of Prussia erupted, and the Revolutionaries again launched an uprising, but the uprising was quickly suppressed by the army.

In this context, Frederick-William IV was too late to secure a stable government, and the strategic plan to unify the German region was long thrown away by them.

In history, after the plan of the Kingdom of Prussia was frustrated, it also fell into a low tide. It wasn't until the Prime Minister of Iron and Steel came to power that he won the second Danish war through a series of vertical and horizontal coups, which restored morale.

With the efforts of Bismarck, the Prussians had the courage to challenge Austria again. After winning the Prussian War, the Prussian army completed its transformation.

Many experts and scholars believe that after Prussia won the war, the Prussian government let Austria pass by as a diplomatic arrangement to avoid Austria's stabbing in the future Franco-Prussian war.

And Bismarck feared that the annexation of Austria would cause an increase in Catholics in the new German empire and trigger religious contradictions in the country.

Franz didn't think so, even if he could not annex Austria, wouldn't it be wise to pay compensation?

We must know that in the history of the Austrian-Prussian War, Austria lost the war. The main loss is still reflected in politics, and the price paid is actually not large.

It was in this era that Franz knew how bad the Prussian state's finances were. In light of the situation at the time, Austria was not without the First World War.

After the defeat of the decisive battle, the reserve mobilization in Austria will soon be completed. If the Prussian kingdom is not recovered, it will become a protracted battle.

After looking at the dried up wallet, Bismarck naturally decided to accept it as soon as he saw it.

The interests are all based on strength. Since Austria's strength still exists, the price to be paid is naturally small.

If the Austrian government broke the pot at that time, and chose to die to the end with the Kingdom of Prussia, maybe there is nothing to pay, and when the Kingdom of Prussia has no money, it will naturally retreat.
