Make France Great Again

"Your Highness, can you recount the situation at that time again!" Prime Minister Manteuffel said to William I in a respectful tone.

"Of course!" William I once again recounted the conversation he had just had with De Ruys.

After Manteuffel lowered his head and thought for a long time, he then raised his head and William I said word by word: "Your Highness, I feel that the purpose of the French Empire is not to make the Kingdom of Prussia an enemy of the Russian Empire. They seem to intend to turn the Kingdom of Prussia into an enemy." We push to the side of the Russian Empire!”

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of William I, Old Moltke, and Ron changed drastically.

If this is the case, then the Kingdom of Prussia is in a dangerous situation.

"What is their purpose for doing this?" William I said with anger. He really couldn't understand why the French Empire targeted the Kingdom of Prussia like this. "We have never offended them, so why do they insist on putting us to death?" ! Do they really want to see the Austrian Empire become the dominant one?"

The faces of Ron and Moltke also showed confusion. They also did not understand the French Empire's strategy towards Germany.

Even from the perspective of German balance, the French Empire should support Germany's second largest kingdom, the Kingdom of Prussia, and balance the largest German empire, the Austrian Empire.

Fortunately now, the relationship between the French Empire and the Austrian Empire has not become alienated because of Napoleon's coming to power, but has become closer.

Sometimes, William I wanted to pick up the loudspeaker and ask the French Emperor whether he understood geopolitics and the German equilibrium.

The relationship between the French Empire and the Kingdom of Prussia is actually more estranged than during the two generations of the Bourbon dynasty. Since Napoleon III came to power, the French Empire has threatened the Kingdom of Prussia countless times.

William I didn't understand that the Kingdom of Prussia was so unwelcome!

Prime Minister Manteuffel also smiled bitterly and told William I that he did not know why Jérôme Bonaparte would rather try his best to win over the Austrian Empire than make good friends with the Kingdom of Prussia.

William I and the three ministers present did not know that Emperor Jerome Bonaparte, who had always been hostile to the Kingdom of Prussia, was a time traveler. The reason why he was so hostile was that the Kingdom of Prussia was the only country with A country with the potential to unify Germany.

Even though Jerome Bonaparte knew that he should show some goodwill to the Kingdom of Prussia now, and then indulge the ambitions of the Kingdom of Prussia, until the Kingdom of Prussia expanded to the point where it thought it had toyed with the French Empire, France unexpectedly A slap in the face to Prussia is the best result.

However, Jerome Bonaparte could not restrain his inner desire to destroy the Kingdom of Prussia now. Every time after he took action, he hoped that the Kingdom of Prussia would stand on the opposing side.

Because the Kingdom of Prussia could only stand on the side of the opposition, Jérôme Bonaparte could completely eradicate the Kingdom of Prussia.

"Then what should we do now?" William I asked Manteuffel in a slightly depressed tone, "Do we really have to offend a country?"

The geographical location of the Kingdom of Prussia was already the site of the Four World War, and Prussia is not a particularly powerful country now, which makes them dare not offend any powerful country rashly.

Whether it is against the Russian Empire or against the French Empire, Prussia's diplomacy will change.

"Your Highness!" Manteuffel hesitated and said tactfully: "Archduke Frederick is already 23 years old, and it's time to get married!"

William I looked at Manteuffel in astonishment. He didn't understand what Manteuffel meant: "My Prime Minister! Are we not discussing what to do now? Why are you getting married!"

"But Crown Prince Frederick has indeed reached the age of marriage!" Manteuffel emphasized again.

Standing next to William I, Ron's eyes lit up, and he immediately said to Manteuffel: "Your Excellency, Prime Minister, I understand, do you mean to let us use the power of the Kingdom of Britain?"

"Yes!" "The Riddler" Manteuffel nodded and said to William I: "Your Highness, I personally think that His Highness the Grand Duke should choose a British wife!"

"Marry with Britain?" William I showed a hesitant expression. "I heard that liberalism is prevalent in Britain. Will marrying them..."

Ron and Moltke also showed a trace of resistance on their faces. Back then, they used bayonets to kill the damn liberals and maintained the purity of the Kingdom of Prussia. (Juncker governs the country)

Nowadays, the Kingdom of Prussia is actually welcoming back a liberal Grand Duchess, which is really embarrassing.

"Your Highness, please don't worry about this!" Manteuffel confidently said to William I: "Every member of the royal family will put the interests of the royal family above their own interests. I believe that Prince Albert and Prince Albert are deeply impressed by this. Princesses educated by Queen Victoria would not be so short-sighted!”

"But, my wife..." William I was a little worried about his wife.

You know, his wife is an even more stubborn diehard than him, and he is a little afraid that his wife will not agree.

"Your Highness, please tell the princess the difficulties the Kingdom of Prussia is currently facing. I believe the princess will understand your choice!" Manteuffel comforted William I again.

"Hey!" William I sighed, "As of now, this is the only way!"

After Manteuffel and others left, while chatting with his wife, William I talked about wanting his son, Duke Frederick, to propose to the Kingdom of Britain.

The princess showed full resistance and finally had to agree to William I's request.

In the next few days, De Ruys never disturbed William I again, and he seemed to have forgotten what he had said before.

However, the intelligence coming from the Rhineland warned Prussia at all times, and De Luys' words remained unchanged.

Nearly 100,000 French troops have been gathered in the Alsace-Lorraine region to participate in military exercises. What's even worse is that the center of the military exercise command headquarters has chosen the Metz area, which means that the French command The closest city in the Rhineland, Saarbrücken, is only 60 kilometers away. It only takes a few days for the French Empire to enter the Rhineland. The three armies of the Kingdom of Prussia in the Rhineland are highly tense. In such a state, they were afraid that the French would be impulsive and go directly to the Rhineland to start filming.

European countries that had originally shifted their attention to the Crimean Peninsula once again shifted their attention to the Franco-Prussian border.

William I was also stepping up contact with the Kingdom of Britain.

However, the British Kingdom's problem with the Crimean Peninsula still needs to be solved by France, so it does not have too much enthusiasm for the Kingdom of Prussia.

Of course, Palmerston, who was far away in London, also knew what the real purpose of the French Empire was, and he knew that his strategy had failed.

Under the threat of more than 100,000 French soldiers, the choice of the Kingdom of Prussia can be imagined.

Therefore, he had no choice but to stop his previous plan to stir up trouble with Clarendon, and instead told William I that the French Empire's actions in the Strasbourg area would soon end, and William I did not need to be so nervous.

William I, who received the guarantee from the Kingdom of Britain, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

In the blink of an eye, in mid-October, King William III of the Kingdom of the Netherlands went to Württemberg to visit the King of Württemberg.

At the same time, French Foreign Minister Walewski also made a low-key appearance in the Kingdom of Württemberg.

Witnessed by the King of Württemberg, the territorial transfer agreement was formally signed between the Kingdom of the Netherlands and the French Empire.

The Bonaparte family spent 30 million (Walewski bargained and kept the price at 30 million francs, including the reason why King William III of the Netherlands was eager to get rid of it) to purchase the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg from the Kingdom of the Netherlands, led by Jérôme. Bonaparte himself also held the title of Grand Duke of Luxembourg.

After completing the purchase, Walewski immediately passed the news to the Strasbourg commander Vayan who was stationed in Metz. Vayan also acted quickly and ordered his two divisions to rush to Luxembourg as soon as possible. Grand Duchy, disarming the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.

After the troops took a train to the border area between Luxembourg and France, they brazenly "invaded" the territory of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.

At this time, the residents of Luxembourg did not know that they had been betrayed by their king.

The garrison of the Kingdom of the Netherlands stationed in Luxembourg had been disarmed by the sudden arrival of the French army before they could react.

The fortress and various strongholds were completely occupied by the troops of the two divisions, and the cabinet meeting that was being held was also dismissed by the soldiers, just like they did with the National Assembly. Find Shuyuan www. zhaoshuyuan.com

Immediately afterwards, the two divisions read out the order in Luxembourg that the Grand Duke of Luxembourg was concurrently appointed by Jerome Bonaparte. Therefore, the entire city defense of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg would be taken over by the French Empire.

When the residents of Luxembourg City heard that their King William III had become the Emperor of the French Empire, they didn't know what to say for a moment.

However, the following second and third decrees made residents of the entire Grand Duchy of Luxembourg cheer.

Because the new Grand Duke of Luxembourg will implement a universal suffrage system in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, all residents over the age of 18 in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg can participate in universal suffrage, and all residents over the age of 30 have the right to be elected.

In addition, the French Empire will allocate 50 million francs to the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg to build Luxembourg's characteristic tourism and financial industry.
