The British pulled the frame and made this war again bewildering. No one knows whether the wallet of the Tsarist government was emptied first or the Kingdom of Prussia was unable to support it on the battlefield.

Losing access to sea transport, the Russians wanted to concentrate their forces and quickly defeated the Prussians.

Since the Russians lost Poland, food prices in St. Petersburg have continued to increase, and have increased by 30% compared to before the war.

This is also the result of timely measures taken by Alexander II to control, otherwise it would not be impossible for food prices to double.

There are many granaries in Russia. The only problem is transportation. From Ukraine and Moscow to grain delivery to St. Petersburg, price increases are inevitable.

At the Hermitage Military Conference, Secretary of the Army Heramed analyzed: "Based on current transportation capabilities, we can invest in frontline operations of no more than 400,000 troops.

With such a small force, it is almost impossible to win the war. The original battle plan was out of date, and the War Department decided to change the battle plan.

Strategic defense was carried out in the Baltic Sea and Belarus. The main forces were put into the Ukraine and attacked Poland along the Russian-October border.

In this way, our troops can obtain supplies directly from Austria, reducing the distance of logistics transportation.

Regaining the Polish region first, we can then rely on rivers in Poland to transport supplies from Austria to ensure the logistics supply of the troops. "

The battle plan looks good, solving the logistics issue. However, Alexander II was very uncomfortable, which meant asking Austria for help.

There is no free lunch in the world, and this war with Austria's support will inevitably pay a price.

Alexander II was reluctant to see that the Russian army was desperately on the front line, but the greatest benefit fell into the hands of others, not even allies.

Chancellor of the Exchequer Kristanval objected: "This plan looks great, but it is not easy for the Austrians to cooperate. It is not just a question of money. It also has to consider politics.

The Vienna government has been in a state of paradox during this war. On the one hand, they want to use our hands to defeat the Prussian kingdom to create favorable conditions for unification; on the other hand, they want to preserve the territorial integrity of the German region.

Unless we can spend a lot of money, they will not cooperate fully. Without their support, it would be difficult to get adequate supplies even against Austria. "

The position of the Vienna government is not a secret, or it wants to see both Russia and Russia lose. This is in the best interest of Austria. It creates conditions for national unity and guarantees the territorial integrity of the German region.

Only after being severely beaten by society will Prussian separatism die out and merge with Austria.

At present, it is Juncker aristocracy who advocates the establishment of Greater Prussia. Once the domestic agricultural products merged with Austria are bound to be impacted, the interests of their landlords are difficult to protect.

The worse the Prussian is being beaten now, the more people will support the unity of Germany, provided that the Kingdom of Prussia cannot be annexed by Russia.

In this context, it is not easy to count on Austria to fully support them to win the war.

Minister of Foreign Affairs Clarence-Ivanov went on to say: "For this issue, we have passed the word with the Austrians.

The attitude of the Vienna government is clear. They will abide by the Russian-Australian alliance and are limited to what is stipulated in the covenant.

To change their decision, the price to pay is too great. "

In front of the interests, the ally relationship must also lean back. All the people present are not white, and they will not be naive to think that their allies will cooperate with you unconditionally.

Speaking directly with interests is actually the best way to maintain ally relationships. An alliance that talks only about friendship and not about interests has never lasted long.

Alexander II commanded: "Send someone to rent some warehouses on the Austrian border and store some of them as a transit point for trade between the two countries.

The military first recovered some of the territories bordering Austria, and then started trade nearby to save transportation costs. "

This is to wipe the ball, stock up on the Austrian border in advance, and resupply when the Russian army arrives.

Although there are still many formalities to go through, this also saves time. Time is life on the battlefield. With sufficient supplies, the Russian army can fight for life with the Kingdom of Prussia.

In this respect, they have an absolute advantage. As long as hundreds of thousands of people are defeated, the Kingdom of Prussia will not be able to sustain it. Unless Britain and France participate in the war themselves, they will be the winners of this war.

Unfortunately, Poland's winter is not cold enough to take advantage of the Russian army's winter combat capabilities.

...

In Vienna, Franz put down the information in his hands, started to eat the melons, and quietly watched the magic powers of the two countries.

The 19th century was the last glory of the monarchy, and the times created heroes. This period was simply the eruption period of the lord.

Prussian William I, Alexander II of Russia, Napoleon III of France, Emperor Meiji of Japan, Queen Victoria of England, and the protagonist themselves did not have a fuel-efficient lamp.

These people are relatively well-known and have a low sense of existence. For example: Rama IV and Rama V in Thailand can protect themselves in troubled times.

Another example: Abdul Megid I of the Ottoman Empire, promoted modernization reforms, and continued the life of the Ottoman Empire.

Including Carl XV of Sweden, Leopold II of Belgium, Nicholas I of Montenegro, Luxembourg ...

If these people change the time point, they can set off the situation of an era, unfortunately everyone will run into each other.

Naturally, the king of a small country does not have much room to play. Being able to survive in the slits of the powers is a kind of ability.

This requires superb political art, and definitely not just salted fish. Every time a team is a test for a small country.

Now it is the turn of Alexander II and William I to PK, and the winner will continue the road of dominance, and the loser can only be eliminated, and everyone is stunned.

King Sardinia has become a sacrifice of this era, being the first to be eliminated and exiled in London.

The leisurely days are short-lived, and they are soon broken.

Foreign Minister Weissenberg reported: "Her Majesty, Francesco II sent a call for help, and the rebels led by Garibal have crossed the Strait of Messina and continued to march north. .

At present, the situation in the country has been out of control, and rebellions are emerging endlessly. Thirteen large and small rebel forces have emerged in the two Sicilian kingdoms.

Just three days ago, Gabori called on the rebels from all over to go to the Naples Alliance. The capitals of the two Sicilian kingdoms are likely to be insecure.

The most troublesome thing was Francesco II's idiot, who actually sent a request telegram to Napoleon III at the same time, which further complicated the problem. "

Rubbing his forehead, Franz also found the problem thorny. If he only asked for help in Austria, he wouldn't have to say that he immediately dispatched troops to help suppress the rebellion.

Regardless of how the later generations brag about the Red Shirts, Franz dismissed them. The combat effectiveness of the army needs to be supported by national strength. The two Sicilian kingdoms are an agricultural country.

The navy blocked the port without ammunition replenishment, and the rebels became guerrillas for up to three or five months.

Not any country can play guerrilla warfare. The two Sicilian kingdoms have a limited area and are divided into two by the strait. Their population is only 8.7 million, and they simply do not have the ability to fight long-term.

In fact, these methods are all superfluous, just send troops to run over. If even an Italian rebel is not sure, the Austrian army can be disbanded.

Franz said dissatisfied: "Francisco II did not ask the Spanish for help, but actually found Napoleon III. It seems that the French have done a lot of small actions under our eyes.

As soon as the General Staff came up with a combat plan, the two Sicilian kingdoms could no longer fall into the hands of the French, or the Mediterranean would become a French reserve. "

The French knew about Franz, but he never imagined that Francesco II would be affected.

Now asking the French for help is all about getting the wolf into the room.

At that time, it is easy to ask God, but difficult to send God. Such a good opportunity, it is no wonder that the French do not take root.

Even if you want to check and balance, you can't choose ambitious France! Even allowing the British to intervene is better than sending the French.

Without Francesco II's call for help, the French would never dare to reach out to Italy. Now the situation is different, and the two Sicilian kingdoms came to their door.

The conflict between Italy and France is about to erupt. For Franz, this may be only a small trouble. For the two Sicilian kingdoms, it means survival.

Franz can sell the Kingdom of Sardinia, can't he still sell the Kingdom of Sicily? As for whether the French will be bigger, that's the case anyway.

As long as the interests are appropriate, many issues can be discussed. In turn, the French may sacrifice the two Sicilian kingdoms in exchange for concessions in other parts of Austria.

It is not so fun to use Yiyi to control Yiyi. Even if the two countries can't talk about the exchange of interests, can't they divide the two Sicilian kingdoms?

The powers of the major powers are so high, as long as their interests are sufficient, they can enter. The two Sicilian kingdoms are not a core interest for Austria, they can only be regarded as marginal areas, and they are similar for the French.

Of course, if Napoleon III really wanted to unify Italy, then there is no need to say that this is an essential link.

The big problem is that with Sicily as the boundary, France and Austria divide the interests of the Mediterranean and jointly squeeze out the British.

At present, the cooperation between the two countries is still very happy. The British were suppressed by the Mediterranean in the Mediterranean, and the tentacles reaching Egypt were blocked by the two countries.
