Holy Roman Empire
Chapter 680: Unlucky egg
In the game between Britain, France, and Austria, Chile, Peru, and Bolivia are vying for the lead, and fierce political struggles have erupted within the Colombian government.
The presidential election of 1880 became the focus of competition. Aware of the trouble, President Julian Trujillo Largacha, decisively chose to withdraw from the election.
Julian's withdrawal did not settle the dispute, but intensified.
After a series of struggles, pro-British leader Rafael Nunez was elected President of Colombia, and the situation began to develop in favor of Chile. (Note: two-year term)
After the news reached Europe, Vienna and Paris shook. The game between Britain, France, Austria and Austria is not just a dispute over the interests of South America, but also a face-off between everyone.
Even if you lose to the British in other places, after all, France and Austria are latecomers, and their influence cannot be compared with John Niu.
Colombia is not the same. The powers of France and Austria have penetrated the past. Although they came later than the British, the two countries combined are not weaker than the British.
It is not surprising that the election failed. Because of the interests, France and Austria each support agents in Colombia.
Even if France and Austria choose to cooperate, contradictions between these agents still exist, and sincere cooperation is impossible.
Dispersal of power cannot be concentrated, and it is normal to lose in elections. It can be understood by senior government officials, but it does not mean that everyone can understand it.
To the outside world, France and Austria lost again to the British in the South American competition. This perception will inevitably affect the choices of governments in other countries and regions.
If this concept is not broken, France and Austria will be disadvantaged in the future international competition.
...
In this age of weak meat and strong food, there is nothing that cannot be solved by force. If that is the case, the force is not strong enough.
The two countries, France and Austria, are not easy to mess with. Since Colombia ’s pro-British government came to power, the British should make concessions elsewhere, such as the South American War.
On April 1, 1880, Fao sent two cruisers each to perform "April Fool's Day military exercise" in the Pacific Ocean, and visited Barranquilla by the way.
This day happened to be President Rafael Nunez's first day in office, and before he could celebrate the victory, he ushered in a great deal.
Rafael Nunez raged the telegram angrily, snarling: "Damn it, they're deliberately provocative, and they want to live with me!"
"Hold down the order, order the surrounding troops to be more alert, to prevent the enemy from landing ..."
After waiting for President Rafael Nunez to finish, Foreign Minister Francisco interrupted: "His Excellency, Fabio is just a diplomatic visit.
Although impolite, it is also normal diplomatic behavior. Taking the action to provoke contradictions is not something we can afford. "
There is nothing wrong, it is indeed normal diplomatic activities. Although he did not give notice in advance, he came on a warship, but the weak country had no diplomacy, and the problem of courtesy passed.
Naturally, Rafael Nunez also knew this. Otherwise, instead of ordering an army alert, the navy will be ordered to expel these uninvited guests.
Forcibly suppressed the anger, Rafael Nunez complained dissatisfied: "Is it difficult to notify in advance a normal diplomatic visit? Forcibly breaking into a port for a diplomatic visit is really a miracle in the history of diplomacy!"
After a moment of contemplation, Foreign Minister Francisco persuaded: "There are so many miracles like this, Your Excellency the President, you should get used to.
Now that we are the ruling party, we need to be accountable to this country. When we encounter problems, we ca n’t be so radical, otherwise problems will easily occur. "
As a qualified politician, Raphael Nunez naturally knew that "it should be counseled." As for "face", you can't find it anyway, so let it go first.
"You convinced me. Send someone to stare at them and take action as soon as there are signs of landing."
The Fao-Joint Fleet is here to visit. Naturally, it will not take the Landing Army to operate together. Landing is impossible. Considering Rafael Nunez's self-esteem, Francesco would naturally not take it apart.
"This is all a small problem. The key now is **** these bad guys. The purpose of the actions of France and Austria is very clear, that is, they want us to ensure smooth trade with Peru.
But before that, in order to win the support of the British, we made a promise to them: as soon as we win the election, we will close the trade channel with Peru. "
This issue was considered by Rafael Nunez before the election, but it only underestimated the determination of France and Austria.
After hesitating for a moment, Rafael Nunez reluctantly made a decision: "Contact the British, this is because of them, and you can't just ignore it now!"
Francesco was reticent, and although he knew it was "drinking thirst", there was no way.
By not bringing in British power and offsetting political pressure from France and Austria, they alone cannot withstand the shock.
...
The South American issue involves the relations between Britain, France and Austria.
After receiving a call from the Colombian government, Prime Minister Benjamin convened a cabinet meeting for the first time.
Benjamin: "It's all here, let's get started! Sir Edward, let me introduce the general situation first."
"Okay, Prime Minister."
Foreign Minister Edward: "In order to end the South American war as soon as possible, with the efforts of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, we have drawn Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay, and Ecuador to block the Peru-Bolivian alliance supported by France and Austria.
Only Colombia, the foreign trade channel, is left. In order to cut off this trade line, our pro-British group who supported Colombia won the election not long ago.
Everything is improving, and France and Austria, unwilling to fail, suddenly turned the table over.
Three days ago, a combined fleet of France and Austria broke into the Barranquilla port of the Republic of Colombia in an attempt to use the threat of force to force the Colombian government to yield. "
Seemingly bland, Edward was already full of anger.
Everyone used their diplomatic means to compete. It was when they showed their talents. As a result, the enemy suddenly stopped playing at the final moment of harvesting the fruits of victory.
This was embarrassing, and the efforts of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs were mostly scrapped. The achievements in hand, all of a sudden flew, and anyone who is changed will be angry.
Seeming to be aware of this, Prime Minister Benjamin appeased: "The efforts of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are obvious to all, and the ability to persecute France and Austria in bad rules is a great victory in itself."
After that, they took the lead and applauded, and everyone followed suit. Although this was only a situation, Edward's mood was relieved a lot.
Although I have not been able to do my utmost to achieve the greatest achievements, but it is not a small gain to get everyone's recognition.
"Thank you, this is our job at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs!"
...
Prime Minister Benjamin: "Things are clear and we need to make a decision now. The Colombian government has asked us for help and hopes that we will send a fleet to share their political pressure."
There was no problem in sending the fleet. After all, it was replaced by the pro-British government. It is naturally impossible for the London government to give up this way. The question is how to handle relations with France and Austria?
When it comes to international relations, everyone set their sights on Edward.
"Fao is our main competitor. It is impossible to maintain a good relationship for a long time. In recent years, conflicts between us and Faao have been increasing, and the collapse of the alliance is sooner or later.
However, this is the future. Now we still need alliances, so contradictions must be controlled within a certain range.
It is understandable that Faol took radical action. Most South American countries have turned to us. If they do not fight back, there will be no chance.
The one-time expulsion of France and Austria from South America is impossible. The interests involved are too great, and they will certainly not stop.
Now that the two countries of France and Austria are moving closer together, I recommend that you accept as soon as possible, so as not to over-stimulate and cause unavoidable consequences. "
...
At the invitation of the Colombian government, on April 6, 1880, the Royal Navy, which blocked Peru, sent a fleet to visit Mikay.
The Colombian government is dumbfounded, the script is wrong! The British did show their support with actual action, the problem is: this is not what the Colombian government wants.
The visit locations chosen by Britain, France, Austria and Austria are very clever. They are separated in the East and West Pacific.
There is no doubt that all three countries remain rational and deliberately control contradictions. Deliberately avoided head-on conflicts and put pressure on the Colombian government.
This sadly broke Raphael Nunez. No matter how slow the reaction was, he also knew that the British had calculated it.
If you think about it, it is not difficult to find the problem. In recent years, the small country regime without the support of international forces is very unstable.
On the bright side, there are two ways before Raphael Nunez. They either offend the British to compromise with Fao and ensure the smooth flow of trade with Peru; .
In fact, Rafael Nunez had no choice. Fao has his own spokesperson in Colombia, and even if he wants to support him, it won't be his turn.
It is not easy to follow the British. It offends France and Austria fiercely, and it is necessary to bear the revenge of the two countries.
The great powers are all face-saving. Why could Faunay not be British?
As for whether the British boss can be trusted, Rafael Nunez has experienced it himself.
