Holy Roman Empire
Chapter 216: bluff
From the outbreak of the war, Franz's nerves were strained. Not only his entire high-level Austrian government, no one dared to relax.
Although the frontline is advancing very fast and smoother than planned, the Austrian government is still mobilizing nationwide.
Perhaps in the eyes of many people, this is a trivial matter. When a Bavarian kingdom is hit, 400,000 troops are dispatched, and a million reserve forces are mobilized in the country.
As a party, Franz can very clearly say that this is not a trivial matter, but a strategic need.
Lions beat rabbits with all their strength.
It is the current state of Austria. If it only deals with one Bavaria, perhaps 30,000 to 50,000 troops can complete the task.
Anyway, Munich was close at hand, and it was enough to launch a surprise attack on 30,000 to 50,000 troops. There is absolutely no need to make a fuss about such a big battle.
This is only military, but politically determines this war and cannot be treated with common sense.
For example, many local governments and military forces in Bavaria have now declared neutrality. This is the result of the combination of the power of 400,000 troops and the political offensive.
If there were only 30,000 to 50,000 troops, would Bavaria ’s local factions easily compromise? Without the cooperation of these people and the absolute superiority of strength, Austria can neutralize the Bavarian defenders?
The real situation is not the destiny of Franz, nor the popularity of the Habsburg dynasty, but the strength that brought the people.
The Bavarian people saw the strength of Austria and the local ruling class was frightened. At this time, the lobbyists went into battle and they naturally made the choice that best served their interests.
No matter they are capitalists or aristocrats, they will not do the thing of praying arms to block the car. Dependence on the strong is their way of survival.
These people also have a face. "Neutral" happens to be a cover cloth, and public opinion is the best weapon to cover their anti-jump nature.
The Austrian government also needs them to help create a popular atmosphere in order to gather the hearts of the Bavarian kingdom and endorse the war.
The results are now very good. Everyone guided public opinion tacitly, using the pretext of German unification as a pretext to position the war initiated by Austria.
They also put on a patriot hat on the ground that they could not betray their loyal monarchs and undermine the unity of the country, and then gloriously declared neutral.
There are so many lies, they have to believe it, because now Austria is really backed by everyone ’s expectations.
The people at the bottom could not think of so many, boasting several times, they thought that the unification war launched by Austria was just. Those who consider themselves patriotic must not hinder national unification at this time.
It can be said that Franz has fabricated the largest routine in history, and all parties have been entered into it, and they still cannot come out.
People around you hang "German Unity" on your lips. In order to be in a group, you can't help but follow it. You know that people around you, like you, don't agree with this concept as much as you say.
It is the nationalists who really support the unity of Germany. These talents are the true supporters. Ordinary people are only affected by the general environment and are brought into the rhythm preconceived. They subconsciously believe that they are also advocates of German unity.
Brainwashing is now going very smoothly, and at least one million Bavarians are being tricked into it, and it is precisely celebrities in Bavaria who complete this plan.
They were in the game themselves, and once they got stuck, they couldn't get out. It can be said that this war made the idea of German unity deeply rooted in the kingdom of Bavaria.
Franz knew this kind of thing, and he wouldn't say it. All the people outside just saw the Bavarian people support the overthrow of the Bavarian government in support of German unity.
Maximilian II, including in Munich, thought that he had been abandoned by the people, otherwise it could not be explained that the Austrian army appeared outside the city without encountering any obstacles.
Vienna
The Prime Minister Felix said optimistically: "Your Majesty, the first step of the strategy is stable. Under the German unity, the Bavarians have no sense of resistance at all. It seems that our plan is still too conservative.
The population base in the German region is much better than we expected. Perhaps our steps can be enlarged a bit, simply ... "
Franz shook his head. The people in Bavaria have always been in Austria for many years. With the combination of time and place and people working together, the rest of Germany cannot compare.
If you continue to play, you will have to dress up. I still accept it as soon as I can, so that everyone thinks that the people in the German region support unity and entice them to make wrong judgments.
"Prime Minister, greed is the original sin of this world, and the more critical it is, the more we have to control our desires. Austria needs stability, not danger!"
The awakened Prime Minister Felix was sweating coldly, and indeed his success was easy to get lost and become arrogant.
Foreign Minister Metternich said: "Yes, no matter how good the population base in the German region is, we do not have the ability to unify Germany.
Austria cannot stand on the opposite side of all the great powers. What needs to be done now is to settle down in order to digest these trophies and turn them into national strength. "
Franz nodded, and then commanded: "Mr. Metternich, you can take a personal trip over Berlin. The Prussian government should be scared. Now they need to be stabilized.
Prime Minister, you are also lucky to visit the German state again. This time starting with Saxony, try to convince them with political means. "
Must the war be waged? Franz said that history can learn from it, Prussians can use political means to recapture these states, and Austria can do the same.
When it is internal, military means can still be used. If you kill a bloodstream, it will be refreshing at the time, and you will cry when you manage the place in the future!
These small state governments can always exist, and naturally have their own way of existence. Why the German Empire in history left these states is not for stability.
Historically, the central government of the German Empire relied on the means of Huairou to eat away the rights of the governments of the states.
Now it is easier for Austria to do this, after all, the Bavarian Kingdom, the largest state in South Germany, has been destroyed, and the remaining small states are not worth mentioning.
As long as the monarch and celebrity are settled, the later things will be easy to handle. The central government has both strength and righteousness in hand, and it is too easy to suppress local governments.
It really doesn't work, is there still a kind of re-seal in history?
Anxious, Franz can still shame, as long as he grabbed the handle, he changed the so-called kings and archduke's sites.
In their old nests that have been in business for decades or even hundreds of years, there is no way to deal with them. They have changed places where their lives are not familiar. Are they afraid that they will not be honest?
Even Franz could even be more shameless in giving a false title, such as taking the title of King of Jerusalem, and changing the throne for a bad luck.
The status of this sacred throne is extraordinary, but unfortunately the territory is within the sphere of influence of the Ottomans. It is not known when the country will be restored.
...
In the Royal Palace of Munich, Maximilian II had to accept the cruelest reality, maybe he could not even run.
The Munich City Defence Forces actually declared neutrality. Apart from the Palace Guards, the only loyalty to the King now is only a new infantry division just mobilized to prepare to defend Munich.
But is this unit reliable? The answer is no, the public opinion cannot be violated, and since the Bavarians have made a choice, they will naturally be affected.
The reason why it is not declared neutral now is that the upper officers are still loyal to the king, and are not infiltrated by nobles and capitalists like the city defense forces.
On June 10, the second day of the siege of Austria, Austrian surrendered representatives had entered the Royal Palace of Munich.
Talking about conditions after a defeat is a common occurrence in continental Europe. This is not the first time in the history of the Kingdom of Bavaria.
It is just different from the past, the status of the Bavarian royal family is at stake this time, and Maximilian II himself does not have much confidence to keep the throne.
But Prime Minister Auguste assured him that the Austrians would not abolish his throne for one reason: eating.
With so many states in the German region, everyone is still watching that the Vienna government cannot do too much.
...
Foreign Minister Buckhouse said angrily: "Mr. Jonas, the conditions in your country are too much, and we all agree to join the Holy Roman Empire. You have made so many excessive demands, which clearly means to annex Bavaria! "
Austrian Ambassador to Bavaria Jonas shook his head and said, "There is always a price to be paid for doing something wrong. The current Bavarian government has no capital to talk about conditions.
Mr. Buckhouse, believe it or not, even if Austria withdraws its troops immediately, the Bavarian government will be dead. The people outside can't wait to send you to the gallows.
Now the situation in the Kingdom of Bavaria is no longer suitable for the royal family to continue to rule, and replacing the land with Austria is the best choice.
At that time, the respected King Maximilian II can serve as King of Serbia, and you can also be Minister of the Kingdom of Serbia.
This is already the limit that Austria can do. You have lost the basis of rule. If you continue to rule the Kingdom of Bavaria, the revolution is destined to continue in the future.
The reunified German central government is not a tool to help you truly revolutionize. Mr. Buckhouse hopes you can understand this. "
Seeing flicker again, did the Bavarian government really lose all its people? Franz knew that it hadn't yet, and it could be judged by the local government choosing neutrality instead of choosing to be rebellious.
But they didn't know about it themselves. The thick stack of declarations of neutrality made it look as if the Bavarians were all Austrian advocates.
In their view, this neutrality is betrayal, and it is not necessary to not directly defeat the Austrian. Austria does not need them to act, and can keep its own face, no one will be mean to itself
Foreign Minister Buckhouse continued to fight: "No, the Balkans are too remote. Serbia is a barren land. This is clearly exile!
Since the throne is to be replaced, it must be replaced equivalently. It must be fair for Austria to have a wealthy area. "
This is not because his bottom line is low, but his misunderstanding that has made Maximilian II lower his expectations, and naturally, Buckhouse, who is in charge of the negotiations, has no confidence.
In their opinion, the Bavarian royal family has lost popular support. No matter who supports him, he cannot continue to hold the Bavarian throne. He was originally prepared to abdicate to take responsibility.
Unfortunately, Austria did not agree and threatened them. Once the royal family did not cooperate, they encouraged the Bavarians to launch a revolution and send them to the guillotine.
This threat was not feared by Maximilian II. As long as Austria was still an imperial state, it was impossible to send his king to the guillotine, and everyone else was different.
When the Minister is killed, the Austrians will not dread it. Is n’t the thief the best excuse? For the sake of his own life, the high level of the Bavarian government had to do the ideological work of Maximilian II.
Even the current negotiations are for Maximilian II. Just because he was afraid he couldn't figure it out. If he hanged himself, Suddenly Franz would cry.
That meant that Austria was busy working this time, dying a king, and daring to annex the Kingdom of Bavaria. It is estimated that there will be no peace in the future.
If he wants to win the hearts of the people, he must cooperate with Maximilian II. Only when he agrees to give up the throne can Franz be able to legally obtain the rule of the Kingdom of Bavaria.
Maximilian II must survive, at least until Austria annexes Bavaria.
He must also live well and not allow the Bavarian people to see his disappointment and compassion. That was when land was replaced, and the representative of Austria proposed to trade Serbia for Bavaria.
The proposal came to an impasse in the negotiations. Buckhouse was fighting for his allegiance to the king, and Jonas was unwilling to make concessions.
