Holy Roman Empire

Chapter 941: The highest state of recklessness

Facts have proved that life is still more important than money, and the richer people, the more they cherish their lives. After weighing the pros and cons, everyone still felt that the protection fee had to be paid.

Being able to have a foundation in an unfriendly foreign country, whether it is from scratch or inherited from an ancestor, is not a simple commodity.

With Austria’s tiger skin, not only can you overcome the immediate threat, the most important thing is to avoid standing in line in this war.

Compared with the Japanese robbery, political squadrons are really deadly. After all, in Nanyang, where the anti-Chinese movement often erupts, it's not like being robbed once or twice. Everyone has experience in dealing with it.

Even if it is robbed by the Japanese army, only a part of the floating wealth is lost. Political squadrons are different. If you make the wrong bet, you will die.

Without the support of a powerful country, the overseas Chinese are just stubborn. Honorino wants to make money for his political achievements. Why don't everyone here want to find a backer?

There is a precedent for the Lanfang Company. Austria's reputation among Nanyang Chinese is quite good. If you don’t interfere in internal affairs, you can’t find a second power if you take money to do things.

The deal was concluded, and a diplomatic note representing the Austrian government appeared in front of General Youpeng in Shan County.

If it weren't for the country's repeated urges not to conflict with the great powers, and the navy to watch it, Shanxian Youtoo really didn't want to pay attention to this informal note.

Hundreds of thousands of diaspora were added overnight. Such a joke is clearly fooling people. Unfortunately, there is no alternative. The Japanese government cannot provide the foreign powers with an excuse for interference.

The Tokyo government still underestimated the political impact of the attack on the Philippines. This year, it is white people's world. Banya is not as capable of pulling hatred as the Russians. International public opinion naturally tends to Spain.

Even Britain and France, who invited the Japanese troops into Southeast Asia, have now changed their faces. Not only do they deny them as a quasi ally, they also invalidate all the previously negotiated conditions.

"Tell the Austrians and let them provide relevant evidence. As far as I know, there are hundreds of Austrian nationals in the Philippine Islands, and the people living in Chinatown are all from the Far Eastern Empire. The color gap is so obvious, can I still be mistaken? "

It's not that Shanxian's friends are not enough, and it's not that he is greedy to rob. The key is that the plan has been disrupted.

According to the original plan, after conquering Luzon, they used coercion and temptation to subdue the Chinese in Southeast Asia and lay the foundation for ruling the Philippines.

"Your Excellency Commander, it’s useless. News came from the inside. Just last night, Chen Taoyue, the Chinese leader of the Philippines, reached an agreement with the Austrian Foreign Officer in Honorino in the Philippines to pay 350,000 Aegis in exchange for Austria’s security. Protection, the two sides have signed a treaty.

I have dealt with Honorino, that is a vampire. It is very difficult to stir up three points unreasonably. It is impossible for him to give up the benefits he has obtained. "

It was Kazuo Yamamoto, an intelligence officer sent to the Philippines by the Japanese government. He personally presided over the cooperation between inside and outside in the Luzon Island offensive and defensive battle.

A friend in Shan County frowned, his eyes full of murderous intent. If possible, he doesn't mind sending someone to kill him.

Unfortunately, I can only think about it. There are too many insiders, and the risk of killing people is very high.

Moreover, evidence is not popular these days. For the great powers, suspicion is enough, who cares about the evidence but not the evidence.

As a high-level Japanese government, Yamaxian Yutomo is also concerned about the international situation.

Judging from the current situation, the anti-French alliance has a very good chance of winning, and no matter how bad it is, it will be able to achieve a result of both losses.

No matter what the result is, the anti-French alliance is an important force in the European world. In this context, it is undoubtedly unwise to offend the boss of the Anti-French Alliance.

After a pause for a while, Shanxian Youpeng said helplessly: "No matter, they can't run on the island anyway. They ordered the troops not to enter Chinatown for the time being.

Yamamoto-kun, your next mission will be very important. It is necessary to win over the local powerful factions as soon as possible and form a colonial government to deal with the subsequent counterattack by the Spaniards. "

Having just regained national sovereignty, the Japanese are still not strong these days, especially when facing European powers, they have no confidence at all.

...

In St. Petersburg, Alexander III was very tangled. I don't know when it started, and the voice of the main battle in the country rose again.

There is no doubt that the Anglo-Russian War has just ended, and Central Asia is still in a mess, and it will definitely not be fighting with the British; Russia and Austria are traditional allies, and the main warriors will not want to do something with their own people.

In addition to these two big bosses, there are only the French who are qualified to keep pace with Russia. The main target this time is the French.

The reason is very simple: disrupt France, crush the Anglo-French alliance, cut off the arm of the British, and prepare for the future capture of India.

To be far-fetched must be a bit far-fetched, but this is barely justified. According to the logic of the main battle faction, as long as the French fell, the future would be for the British to fight against the Russian-Austrian alliance alone, and the two-on-one game was settled.

Stable is stable. The problem is that Anglo-Austria must follow the script. If you get down to France, Britain and Austria die again, it would be embarrassing.

Austria has a good reputation, but the interests involved this time are too great. Alexander III expressed deep doubts about whether the Vienna government could fulfill the contract.

Suspicion is not enough. In recent years, the Russian Empire has won the Russo-Prussian War and the Central Asian War, and the morale of the people in the country has been restored.

Except that the government's pockets are not enough, the arrogant Russian empire has returned.

Strength is courage. Although the Central Asian War finally stopped in Afghanistan, the ambition to peek into India has already emerged.

The high-level government can see the hidden crisis, it does not mean that ordinary people can see the crisis. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to light a firecracker and explode so much.

"The voice of the main battle in the country is loud. Do you think it is suitable to declare war on the French?"

Alexander III asked.

The clamor was fierce among the people, but the tsarist government was extremely calm. Everyone knows that behind the high voice of the main battle, Austria is pushing it, but the voices of the people can't deceive people. If it were not for the subjective tendency of the people, Austria's pusher alone would not be able to create such a big momentum.

This judgment is not wrong, but if someone conducts long-term public opinion guidance and brainwashing, it is not necessarily true.

Of course, this cannot be blamed on the tsarist government. For a long time, the relations between Russia and Britain and France have not been good, and the domestic media to promote the dark history of Britain and France was originally politically correct.

Since it is politically correct, it is nothing to be caught in some private goods. After all, newspapers and magazines should also attract attention!

It doesn't matter once or twice. After more than ten or twenty years, quantitative changes have caused qualitative changes. Coupled with the just-concluded Anglo-Russian War, the people's hatred of Britain and France has become even more serious.

Newsmen also have to eat. Since the people hate Britain and France, they naturally have to meet the needs of readers.

Against this background, Austria invested money to fuel the flames, which quickly detonated public opinion, and the call for a declaration of war on France suddenly rose.

For the popular state, public opinion can influence and even dominate government decision-making, but in the conservative Russian Empire, it is the tsarist government that can really make decisions.

Secretary of the Army Ivanov: "Your Majesty, judging from the current situation in the European battlefield, the anti-French alliance has reversed the situation and the possibility of winning the war is very high.

If we join in again, the French defeat will be a matter of time. Even if the British left the game in person, they were powerless. "

Nothing wrong, now war with the French will definitely be able to win. Even if the French suddenly opened up and pulled up all the neutral countries, they couldn't turn it over.

Although the main battle was not clearly stated, from the expression of Marshal Ivanov, everyone could still see that the military was eager for war.

It's right to think about it. This kind of war that beats down dogs is the most suitable for exploiting military exploits. Naturally, the military cannot refuse.

Foreign Secretary Oscar Jiménez analyzed: "The Marshal said rightly. Now joining the Anti-French Alliance, there is almost no military risk. However, we must also consider political influence.

Our participation will allow the anti-French alliance to easily win the war, and the post-war European situation will be fundamentally reversed.

According to the intelligence collected by the Federal Embassy in Germany, Austria has reached an agreement with many states to restore the Holy Roman Empire after the war.

From a legal point of view, this can be regarded as Austria’s internal affairs. As allies, we cannot directly oppose it.

If there is no intervention, a giant spanning Asia, Europe and Africa, an empire that is no less inferior than the ancient Roman empire in history will emerge.

There is no doubt that with this giant, the battle for European supremacy has naturally come to an end. For a long time to come, our European continent can only act as a supporting role. "

European hegemony is the goal that the Russian Empire has struggled for hundreds of years, but unfortunately every time it ends in failure. If possible, no one is willing to give up now.

Chancellor of the Exchequer Alisher: "It is indeed not in our interest to grow Austria, but it is too late to find ways to contain it. Since the fall of Egypt, the French have been doomed to fail.

Whether we join or not, the final outcome cannot be changed. That being the case, why don't we prioritize the interests of the empire?

A war with France does not mean that troops will be sent soon. We can find an excuse to delay time, consume the strength of the Austrians first, and wait for the last minute to send troops to share the fruits of victory.

Although we don't know how much we will get in the end, we don't have to pay back the money we owe the French. This profit alone is worth our declaration of war on the law. "

Regardless of the international situation and the European balance, nothing can compare to the reality of real interests. The tsarist government is really poor now, and it can save a fortune.

A mere declaration of war in name can erase one billion francs of debt, and Alexander III really cannot find a reason to refuse.
