Holy Roman Empire

At the time of the anxiety in the negotiations between Russia and Russia, another incident that affected the political landscape in Europe happened.

On May 15, 1881, Alexander II was assassinated in St. Petersburg. The time and place have changed, but the ending has not changed.

It's not that Franz's butterfly effect is not strong enough. The key is that Alexander II died by himself, knowing that so many people have offended and still walk around.

A few years ago, Alexander II was given the reputation of "King of Assassinations" by the media with a three-figure number of assassinations.

Being assassinated at both ends for three days, maybe more experience. Alexander II has become accustomed to this life, still his own way, often appear in public places.

The night went too far, but after all I met a ghost. It was so difficult to win the war, and before it was time to harvest the fruits of victory, Alexander II had to regret to die.

Alexander II died, but the assassination case is not over. Regarding the murderer's question, the tsarist government has been slow to give a clear answer.

Assassin's identity on the surface is a member of the opinion party. This statement does not matter whether people believe it or not, Franz will never believe it anyway.

Being able to survive unscathed in hundreds of assassinations, Alexander II's security work was not bad. Normally, a stranger approaching will definitely be intercepted by the guards.

If the assassin rushes to throw a bomb within tens of meters, does the guard eat shit?

Able to mobilize the guards and create opportunities for assassination, obviously there are internal people involved, even the emperor's cronies.

Which side is this? This is not something Franz can determine. Too many people have been offended by the reforms of Alexander II, and many high-profile families have fallen because of the reform.

According to Franz's knowledge, Alexander II was ready to carry out a new round of reforms after the war to change the Russian Empire from the root.

There is no doubt that this also touches on the cheese of the vested interests, and it is understandable that it has been backwashed.

Even those who originally supported the reform stood at the opposite side at this time because they violated their own interests.

Victory on the battlefield, while bringing prestige to Alexander II, also pushed him to hell. The vested interests are reluctant to continue the reform. A czar with high prestige and who likes reform has become a stumbling block for everyone.

Regardless of the reason, "King Jun" is the thing that rulers can't tolerate most. As one of the vested interests, Franz is no exception.

"What do the Russians say, have you determined the killer?"

Foreign Minister Weissenberg shook his head: "Not yet. All evidence now points to the Russian People's Will Party, but the Crown Prince Alessandrovich refused to accept the result and made a threat by refusing to succeed.

Now the Tsarist government is also in turmoil. Many people suspect that it was done by conservatives. The two sides are fighting very hard.

According to the information gathered by the embassy, ​​there are still many doubts about the assassination. For example, the head of the guard responsible for the security of Alexander II committed suicide in his home on the day of the incident.

Guards guarding the carriage of Alexander II, committing suicide in prison.

Also, after the assassination of Alexander II, he did not die on the spot, and the next day he was rescued and died. A traffic accident also occurred when the doctor arrived at the scene, delaying rescue time.

... "

The father was assassinated and died, and it was natural for the son to give up. It was inevitable that Alexandrovich would pursue the murderer.

The investigation team is just interesting, knowing so many doubts, and putting the killer's hat on the head of the "People's Will Party", isn't it doubting everyone's IQ?

The Revolutionary Party has the ability to reach into the Tsar Guard, and has long since rebelled against the flag, using assassinations with no technical content?

The subsequent series of sin-fearing suicides is even more nonsense. Some people consciously commit serious crimes, and Franz can understand it. A group of people committed suicide collectively, clearly telling everyone that this was about to die.

When a person dies, the clue is broken. It will certainly not be easy to continue to investigate.

"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs keeps a close watch and does not comment for the time being. The police are ordered to immediately arrest members of the opinion parties operating in Austria and wait for the further development of the case."

It is a sensitive time, and Austria must avoid suspicion. Although no one suspects that Austria did it, this is obviously not suitable.

The arrest of members of the Popular Party is the position Franz showed to the outside world. Regardless of the reason, the monarch is severely punished.

The Russian People's Will Party was not wronged, and even if they were shot, Alexander II died in their hands.

The assassins have been arrested and confessed that they pointed the shoot directly at the top of the party. They could not do anything about it.

The last assassination case that shocked Europe directly killed the Kingdom of Sardinia, and the raging Italian coal burning party disappeared. This time it was the Russian Popular Party.

It's okay to hide your identity, exposed on the bright side. If you don't respond quickly at this time, you will be out of luck.

No matter what position they stand in, the monarchs of European countries will not tolerate the existence of "monarch monarchs". This is a matter of principle.

In fact, when Franz ordered the arrest of members of the Russian Popular Party, European monarchs also issued similar orders.

It doesn't matter if you can't catch it. The members of the Russian Popular Party are naturally in the Russian Empire, and only a handful of people ran outside.

Most countries have no members of the Russian Popular Party. The arrest is just a gesture made by everyone, indicating that everyone is determined to fight this evil organization.

As if overnight, the Russian People's Volunteer Party became a street mouse and had to disappear in the world and lurk in the dark.

...

When Alexander II was assassinated and killed, William I was mixed.

The good news is that the internal situation in Russia is turbulent and there is no energy to entangle them. In the following negotiations, the price of the Prussian kingdom will be greatly reduced.

The worried murderer did not cover the coffin, and if the black pot was caught on their heads, the Kingdom of Sardinia was a lesson learned.

Attempts to assassinate others have destroyed the country, and now Alexander II is dead. If this thunder is met, the Russians will not be able to kill them.

Nothing is impossible until the dust has settled. The Berlin government is extraordinarily effective in apprehending the party.

It was not only members of the public opinion who were arrested, but also members of other Russian revolutionary groups. The Berlin government also arrested them. In order to show his mind, William I also took pains.

The Royal Palace of Berlin, William I said quietly, "Marshal, what do you mean?"

Looking at the resignation submitted by Mao Qi, William I instantly felt a bad feeling.

Mao Qi bitterly replied: "Your Majesty, the situation has developed to this point. The Kingdom of Prussia no longer needs the Marshal.

With the death of Alexander II, the tsarist government was busy cleaning up internal affairs, and the possibility of another war breaking out was almost zero.

I'm annoying if I stay, and I'll be driven off if I don't leave. Neither the Russians nor Hanover wanted to see me stay in Prussia. "

Sometimes it's a sin to fight too much. Mao Qi followed this taboo, and the Tsarist government regarded him as a nail in his eyes and a thorn in his flesh, and Hanover did not want to see him stay to steal the command of the army.

Taking the initiative to retire at this time actually did not want to make it difficult for the Berlin government. Lest for personal reasons, the situation in the Kingdom of Prussia be even more critical.

William I persuaded: "But it is not necessary to give up everything, will they not ... after retirement?"

Mao Qi shook his head: "George I would not rest assured without making a thorough cut. Moreover, on the Russian side, we also need to pay a higher price."

This is not Mao Qi's pride, but the fact. With this flag of Moody, it is difficult for Hanover to divide the general army, and of course George I will not give up.

Not to mention the Russians, Mao Qi's glory was set off by their series of defeats. How can the Russians reconcile him without going on?

If external troubles can still be solved, internal troubles will be fatal. After the war, the military will inevitably be suppressed, and if there is suppression, there will be counterattacks, and the internal fighting in the Prussian kingdom will definitely intensify.

As a military leader, as long as he stays at home, Mao Qi can't avoid this dispute. He is old and has no energy to participate in the following disputes.

In order to avoid subsequent troubles, Mao Qi simply defeated this opportunity and gave up his marshal title, claiming that he was disheartened and left the political vortex of Prussia.

It seems that he has given up the title of Marshal, but in fact he has made progress and retreat, not only eliminating the impact of the defeat on him, but also further establishing his own glorious image in the hearts of the people.

After thinking about all this, William I did not continue. Not only does Marshal Maoqi need to retreat, his king will also retreat.

There is no abdication now, it is not settled yet. The Vienna Peace Conference was doomed to be a shameful treaty to the Kingdom of Prussia, and William I was unwilling to leave this political stain to his son.

The country failed, and now he starts to seek his life.

These things were actually doomed from the beginning. The bet wins the achievement of the empire's foundation, the bet loses or is rich.

In a sense, what was lost now was William I, and Mao Qi was still a success.

The defeat was mainly because the strength gap between the two sides was too large, not because the army could not fight. A general who had always won the battle did not need to be responsible for wars that had disparities in strength and failed.

After pondering for a while, William I asked with interest: "Marshal, after leaving Prussia, where are you going?"

Mao Qi shook his head: "I don't know. Maybe I will travel around the world, find a place to hide when I am tired, and then summarize my life experience."

William I hesitated for a moment, and seemed to have made a decision: "You might consider Austria. The end of the Prussian-Russian war is just a prologue. The European continent has never been peaceful.

Mao Qi was shocked that William I's proposal contained too much content. On the downside, after experiencing strong winds and waves, Mao Qi quickly reacted.

The European royal family is a family, and this sentence is not exaggerated at all. William I had a connection with the Austrian royal family, which was normal operation, and there was no problem if there was no connection.

At this time, the Hohenzollern family wanted to keep the throne, and Austria's support was indispensable. It was normal for the two parties to secretly have a transaction.

At this time, Mao Qicai found how hot the invitation he received.

"I'll think it over!"
