Holy Roman Empire

In the hot sun, a luxurious train is passing by. On both sides of the road, the mature grain seemed to be frightened, bending down, lowering its head, and still trembling from time to time.

In the luxury train compartment, a gorgeously dressed young man was watching the newspaper intently, and frowning from time to time.

The young man was Alexandrovich (Alexandre III), who visited abroad. He had high hopes on this trip to Paris and did not forget to collect information on the way.

He was too lazy to read the information provided by the Tsar government. In Alessandrovich's view, those materials have a clear tendency, or to be politically correct.

In his opinion, to get to know France first, look at French economic and political newspapers. Alexandrovich is not an expert and scholar, these basic materials are enough.

The more you know, the more Alexandrovich feels. From the news in the newspaper, he knew that there was a huge gap between France and Russia.

This gap is "qualitative". It is by no means what the St. Petersburg bureaucrats verbally said. It can be overtaken in three to five years.

What caused him a headache was that the French people didn't have a good impression of Russia. You can see it by reading adjectives in the newspaper.

"Barbarians", "liar", "rogue", "rotten" ...

These adjectives deeply hurt Alexandrovich's heart. His dissatisfaction had no effect. The French newspaper would not be controlled by him. What should be written or how.

Although most of the content is exaggerated, but it is not entirely fabricated, Russia has a lot of black history.

Under normal circumstances, everyone will not turn over these old accounts. It wasn't that Alexandrovich was going to visit, and the ardent newspapers became active.

"French-Russian friendship" does not exist. At least these newspapers do not think that the two countries have a traditional friendship and hate it a lot.

What's even more annoying is that they are still losers. Everyone still remembers clearly that the Russians buried the First Empire of France in one hand.

The Near East War was not able to take revenge, and the French were very dissatisfied. In the recent Russian-Prussian War, the French people donated the most to Prussia and exceeded the total of the German Federation + Austria.

What can be proud of this, Alexandrovich is unclear. In short, he understands that many French people do not welcome him to visit.

At home, Alexandrovich didn't know that Russia was so unpopular in Europe.

Originally he was still worried about the defeat of the Russian-Prussian War. Now he understands that he is fighting against the whole of Europe at the same time. How can he not fail?

Each went to the newspaper, and Alexandrovich was lost in thought. A deep voice kept telling him that something must be done to change the views of European countries on the Russian Empire.

Isolation means danger. Now that the Russian Empire has many enemies, there is only one ally, and even the last ally is now leaving them.

If this situation does not change and the next war breaks out, it will still be difficult for the Russian Empire to win.

Although the war has not yet erupted, Alexandrovich already knew that there would be at least Poland + Prussia + Ottoman in the next war, and several Khanates in Central Asia might also emerge, and even the Far East might not be stable.

Modern warfare fought logistically. The Russian empire lost in traffic in the last war. Although some people accused Austria of paddling in the country, Alexandrovich knew very well that the cause of the defeat of the Russian army was still in itself.

The purchase of supplies from Austria, but the inability to transport to the front line in time, resulted in a lack of frontline forces, which allowed the Prussians to take advantage.

If there are no logistical constraints and one million Russian troops are put into the front line, even if the whole of Europe provides logistics to Prussia, they will not be able to stop them.

There is no fairness in the war. There is no need for the army to play with less and win more. They are all fools, and usually such fools die terribly.

In the history of war, almost all of them have won the war with great strength, and the reason why weak is better than strong is respected because it happened less often.

In the case of comparable forces, the Russian empire is indeed at the bottom of the European powers when it comes to combat effectiveness.

The reason Alexandrovich is clear, it is nothing more than the gap in weaponry and training. In the final analysis, there is no money.

Most of the Tsar's soldiers are compulsory soldiers. These troops do not need to pay salaries, just give them a token amount.

Cheap has become a symbol of the Tsar's army. Compared to strengthening training and replacing the most advanced weapons and equipment, economically speaking, the increase in the number of people brings greater combat power.

This account has long been calculated. The cost of a French soldier is enough for the Tsarist government to recruit two such cheap soldiers, and there is still a surplus. On the battlefield, a French army could never win two Russian soldiers.

This is how the gray animals came. Because the economy was cheap, the Russians fell in love with the sea tactics.

The train decelerated slowly, and Alexandrovich knew it was Paris. Looking at the buildings on both sides of the road, Alexandrovich showed a fascination.

Paris was definitely the most desirable city in the world in the 19th century. Of course, Alexandrovich's interest in Paris was definitely not because it was a revolutionary shrine.

As a crown prince, especially the tsarist government's crown prince, he is a member of the reactionary group and it is impossible to play with the revolutionary party.

The reason for Alexandrovic's interest is simply that Paris is the capital of France and has France's most developed industry.

As the three most famous European cities in this era, although Paris is famous as a revolutionary shrine, it is not bad in other respects.

After the reconstruction of Napoleon III, Paris has got rid of its dirty and messy hat. The urban environment is better than that of London, not too much.

...

Franz has no interest in Alessandrovich's trip to Europe, and even this famous man in the next generation cannot move him.

History is the easiest to deceive, and exaggeration has always been the favorite of literati. For example, Italy's Sanjie, which was highly appraised by future generations, failed because of changes in the international situation.

Franz acknowledged that they were really capable, and unfortunately they were out of luck this time. Just such a small change has changed their lives.

Garibaldi and Mazzini failed to lead the revolution and were forced into exile. The well-known Prime Minister of Culfur is even worse, and the art of synergy and horror has hit the streets from the very beginning.

Austria's position is different from that in history. Letting France expand in the Italian region, Napoleon III felt that annexing the Italian region was more beneficial than cooperating with the Kingdom of Sardinia.

A decision made by the superior made all his efforts useless. No way, the success of space-time was based on luck, and now it is a bit of luck.

Countless real cases tell Franz that the losers' capabilities are not necessarily bad, and they are often only a little luck away from success.

With this slight gap, the final result is often the difference between heaven and hell.

Napoleon III is also an example. The original time and space man has already taken the street. As a result of Franz's butterfly effect, Napoleon III is now called the "Napoleon the Great" by the French.

Looking at the information in his hand, Franz frowned, and if nothing unexpected happened, his unlucky brother would be unlucky soon.

No buyers were found internationally, and the Paris government decided to withdraw its troops from Mexico. Without the support of French soldiers, Franz did not think Massimilino would stabilize the situation.

Without hesitation, a secret order flew from the Vienna Palace to the Austrian Central American colony. Anyway, these are brothers in name and can't really sit idly by.

Franz even considered the placement. Throw it in the country castle, anyway, there is not much else in Habsburg, that is, there are many castles.

An idealist like Massimilino, who has failed to return to meet people after a failure, is just a good time in the countryside.

In the original time and space, Maximilian refused to run, Franz suspected that he was afraid of shame, afraid of being laughed at, and afraid to return to Europe.

This kind of heart is not surprising, just like working without earning money, and embarrassed at home all year round.

The problem with Massimilino's mind was that Franz was not a doctor at heart. Knowing what to know and how to treat is beyond his ability.

Perhaps this question can be left to the Empress Sophie, just to find something to do for her, to share the puppet in Franz's ear.

Mexico City is not far. As long as you are prepared in advance, it is not too difficult to have an armed intervention. In the end, you can pay the new Mexican government.

Unlike the French, the Austrian Central American colonial empire was next to Mexico. The farmers there have long wanted to annex the Yucatán Peninsula. Just because of his face, Franz was embarrassed to do something with Mexico.

By the time Massimilino I hit the streets, this obstacle would no longer exist. Scratch the rabbit and weed as much meat as it bites.

The strength of the Austrian Central American colonies may be equivalent to one or two states to Americans. Even if the Germans can play a little, it is equivalent to the power of two or three states. It is not worth mentioning.

But the beginning of the Mexican empire was enough to make them sober. Of course, this is based on the case of the Mexican insurgents themselves.

If they are smart enough to send Massimilino I out of the country, there is no excuse for war, pay attention to the Franz who eats, and they will not do anything to them.

To put it plainly, the Americas region is not the focus of Austria's expansion. The Vienna government has limited energies and cannot take care of so many places at the same time.

Even in the strategically important area of ​​Panama, Franz can ninjas, let alone Mexico?

Now Franz is thinking about which son to go to Central America as king.

With the rise of nationalism in such a colony thousands of miles away, it is still too difficult for the central government to directly control it. It is easier to establish a state.

This is also in line with the tradition of the Habsburg dynasty, when the old ancestors could separate Spain and Austria, now Franz can naturally separate a colony.

Not only the Central American colonies, but also the possibility of establishing a state in the Nanyang region in the future. Anyway, the meat rotten in the pot is better than thrown out.

If these states are anchored under the name of the Shen Luo Empire, everyone playing in an economic circle is not a failure.
