Holy Roman Empire

Franz shook his head: "The immediate interests are not important. Now we need a new strategy, a great strategy that can be trusted by European countries.

The original German unified strategy can no longer fool people. With the development and growth of the Kingdom of Prussia, we are unable to swallow them, and now the slogan is resounded, and European countries will not believe it.

When the German region cannot be unified, we will definitely have a new strategic plan. Put another smoke popping up to attract the attention of all countries, lest they discover our real purpose. "

True or false, false or true, the Vienna government has tinkered with many strategies over the years, but what can convince everyone is the "German Unified Strategy".

These strategies are true and fully in Austrian interest. It is just because of various practical reasons and the small success rate that the Vienna government has not invested much resources.

For example, the European hegemony plan was formulated by the Vienna government in order to seize European hegemony, because the success rate was too low.

Another example: the naval hegemony strategy, which is the product of the arms race of Britain, France and Austria. According to the plan, Austria will build a hundred ironclad ships within ten years to seize the British dominance of the sea.

The plan is a good plan, and when it comes to implementation, we have encountered difficulties. Aside from boasting in the newspapers that provided the Royal Navy with an excuse to expand its forces, the actual changes took place when it moved.

Iron armored ships are also divided into three or six or nine. The smallest ones are only a few hundred tons, and the largest ones are more than 10,000 tons. Battleships of different grades have different powers in naval battles.

In addition to brushing a wave of presence, the British soon found themselves fooled. If we only count the numbers, it is not ten years before the Austrian Navy has built more than a hundred warships.

It's just some boats, most of them are offshore patrol boats. The number of battleships has increased by three or five. Although the ten-year period has not yet passed, no one thinks that the Vienna government will continue to explode warships in the next period.

This is all superficial. If it wasn't for the British to deliberately be fooled, the plan would be worn out at the beginning. It is not easy for the Royal Navy to expand its army. To persuade parliamentary funds, how can it be done without excuses?

In this regard, France and Austria are also allies of the Royal Navy. As soon as France and Austria say they want to build a ship, the British will follow up immediately.

With the Royal Navy's initiative to cooperate, it is not difficult to fool the laymen of Parliament. As long as the appropriation is approved, the money will become a warship even if it is worn out later.

In the original space-time British-German arms race, some people criticized that the navies of the two countries colluded with each other and joined forces to cheat military expenses.

The term "collusion" is used too much, but there are suspicions in this regard when they join forces to cheat military expenses.

Now it is no exception. Each time the navy expands, Britain, France and Austria use each other as a raft. As long as there are good reasons, the government can pay for it.

Before the alliance between the three nations, even if some people saw the problem, everyone could only follow it up daringly, and no one dared to risk stopping building the navy.

International politics is very complicated, and it is very difficult to figure out the purpose of competitors. But it doesn't matter. Regardless of the purpose of the competitors, as long as what they want to do is not done right.

Since the banner of the German unification strategy, European countries have been working to prevent Austria from unifying the German region. Britain and France stared at the German Federation, fearing that Austria would suddenly do something to them.

The rise of the Kingdom of Prussia, in addition to Britain and France want to use their hands to attack the Russians; at the same time, by arming Prussia, it blocked Austria's unification of the German region.

Everyone is enclosing Austria on the European continent, and Franz naturally will not look for excitement. Attracting British and French attention to Europe, Austria's expansion in Africa was able to proceed smoothly.

Now that Austrian Africa has grown, the foundation is not secure. Once European countries have discovered the purpose of the Vienna government, who can guarantee that John Bull will not encourage Austrian African independence?

At that time, the French will think, the British will be responsible for flickering, and throwing a huge sum of money into it, who knows how much trouble will be caused.

On the bright side, Franz has been releasing Austria's strategic focus on unifying the German region. Everyone believes this statement, and the Austrians themselves believe it.

Except for high-level governments, no one knows that actions on the European continent are in the guise of. Even if the British and French knew that there was a problem, they would have to protect Europe first, or else the idiom "make false come true" would appear.

Prime Minister Felix: "Your Majesty, if we have ambitions about Poland, it is estimated that no one will believe it if we say it.

Both Russia and Russia regard Poland as something in their pockets, and if we are not wise, we can't go and swallow Poland alone; if we divide Poland, it is estimated that it will be completed in a wave of operations, and it will fail to attract the attention of all countries. .

Otherwise, they will use the sacrifice of reclaiming the Holy Land as a guise. If Britain and France do not believe it, then let them think that we want to annex the Asia Minor Peninsula. An Ottoman Empire is always enough. "

The reality is such a comedy. Do not do anything to Poland, not because Poland is too strong, but because Poland is too weak, so weak that it will be pushed down.

Poland fell, and the end result was nothing more than being divided up. The strategic goals were directly completed, and the strategy naturally ended.

Unless you die with Pu Russia next time, this is the end, except that you can get an extra site, and the other returns are almost zero.

Not to mention the headaches of the increased Polish population. This kind of thing that increased the instability of the empire has not been done by the Vienna government for many years.

The Ottoman Empire is different. It is large enough to be swallowed by Austria and has few competitors.

The vitally damaged Russian empire was not qualified to compete with Austria for the Ottoman Empire, and at most it had to take a share.

Only by grasping the rhythm, don't you kill the Ottoman Empire at once, it is better to have victory and defeat, and have a slight upper hand. European countries are still happy to see Austria and the Ottoman Empire die.

If Britain and France want to pull their hind legs, they will probably support the Ottoman Empire. Franz didn't worry about it in this regard.

The sons of Tian Xuan have not yet been born. The contradictions within the Ottoman Empire are too heavy. It is almost impossible to regenerate.

This is good for everyone. Austria can hide the sky, Britain and France have achieved the purpose of containing Austria, the Ottoman Empire can also deceive aid, and Russia and Russia can rest assured.

In the course of combating consumption, the Middle East can also be eaten up quietly. Not only will energy in the next century not have to worry about it, even half of the world's hegemony will be obtained.

A small fight in three years and a dozen in ten years, this play can be performed for a long time. The Habsburgs and the Ottoman Empire were vengeful, and there was no need to worry about excuses to attack them. Revenge was the best excuse.

After looking at the map, Franz pointed to Poland: "This is not enough. In order to make this play more realistic, we need to add a few supporting actors.

Isn't the Kingdom of Prussia so obsessed with Poland, then fulfill them and find a chance to sell it for a good price.

If the Prussians can defeat the Russian Empire, then this is ours. Give them a little strength and strengthen the fighting spirit of Junker aristocrats. "

Franz drew a circle on the map, a large area of ​​the Russians were enclosed, and the Black Sea became the Austrian Inland Sea directly. All 200 years of hard work of the Russians were lost.

After this wave, it is really very difficult for the shrinking version of Russia to rise. Even if they become stronger again, they will have to face the Kingdom of Prussia first.

As for Austria, how could Franz rudely annex Russian territory? Does the Tsarist government that failed the war need no one to pull?

This kind of difficult operation definitely needs to be paid. At that time, the Vienna government will pay a sum of money and buy these territories.

In this respect, the Americans did a very good job. The French were forced to buy and sell, but there was still nothing to say that they were bought by legal means.

Looking at the circle painted by Franz, everyone looked at each other as if nothing was seen. With such calculations, his allies will soon catch up with John Bull.

But by that time, the Russian-Olympic League should also expire. The two sides are no longer allies, and it seems logical to do so again.

Although the painting is beautiful, everyone is still not very optimistic about Prussia. There may still be opportunities to defeat the Russians, and it will be difficult to defeat the Russians.

Without ceasing the Tsarist government, I am afraid they will not accept the blackmail of Austria. It is not easy to realize this third strategy.

Minister of Foreign Affairs Weissenberg: "His Majesty, the kingdom of Prussia is too fragmented, and the national defense pressure is too great. If they cannot concentrate their forces, I am afraid it will be difficult to defeat the Russians.

After the annexation of Poland, Prussia's strength has been very strong, and we cannot continue to let them grow.

I suggest that the Prussians give up the Rhineland region. The Berlin government is now very poor, but the German federal empire is rich. It is better to let them buy the Rhineland region. "

This proposal is very constructive, the Rhineland region is rich in coal and iron resources, and the local industry is developing very well. If this enclave is cut off, the heavy industry of the Kingdom of Prussia will be cut directly, which will greatly weaken their development potential.

As long as it is done properly, Franz is not worried that the Berlin government will refuse. Potential is only the potential, and the future will come after the current crisis.

Solving the financial crisis and concentrating all military forces are essential factors for them to win the next war.

Although the Rhineland region is good, but the neighbor next door is French, it suddenly becomes bad. If war really broke out, this enclave wouldn't be able to keep it.

Britain and France are very wary of Austria's expansion on the European continent, but will definitely not worry about the German Federation expanding. Even with the addition of the Rhineland region, the German Federal Empire is only a medium-sized country, and the thresholds of the powers are low.

With Austria's influence in the German Federation, it is not difficult to promote this transaction. Even if the imperial parliament fails, the same is true of manipulating one of the states. In the German Federation, Austria still has a younger brother.

After clearing his thoughts in the shortest time, Franz nodded: "This plan is very good. After the Rhineland region, the strategy required by the Kingdom of Prussia will be completely eastward.

The specific plan of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is perfect. We are not in a position to intervene in person. It is better to implement it with the help of the British.

In order to divide the German region, the British tried their best. As long as they are convinced, strengthening the strength of the German Commonwealth will make it more difficult for us to unify the German region, and I believe that the London government will do everything for us.

The French should be more peaceful for the time being, but we cannot relax our vigilance, but we can't let them get out of the way, then we will make wedding dresses for others. "

Borrowed from the British that year, it changed from a two-point German to a three-point German, which prevented the rise of the Prussian kingdom. Now Franz naturally does not mind coming again.
