Rebirth of the Spanish Empire

,

spn While everyone was paying attention to the south, the current Serbian government was stunned by the emergency notice that appeared in the early morning of August 2.

"It's over. I didn't expect that those bastards from the Austro-Hungarian Empire would join the war at this time. There are only 40,000 recruits in the north. How could they withstand the opponent's fierce attack?"

Peter I looked at the urgent telegram stamped in his hand with some confusion. His hand suddenly felt heavier than ten thousand pounds, and he even felt a little dark around him. In the end, he didn't know what happened, but he felt his own confusion, and then he stopped. Save people time.

It was 5 a.m. on August 2, 1912. The Austro-Hungarian Empire suddenly attacked Novi Sad, the gate city in northern Serbia. The unprepared Novi Sad was captured in just 10 hours. Many people say that it was mainly because of the defense. The reason why the 40,000 troops were new soldiers, so in the face of the Austro-Hungarian army that was twice their size, they could only surrender in the end. Of the 40,000 troops, more than 30,000 people surrendered. This was more than enough for the Serbs. This is an absolute shame. It was precisely because of this that their king fainted immediately after learning the news.

This is really embarrassing, but the ambitions of the Austro-Hungarian Empire are more than that. Therefore, they are also preparing to go south and continue to expand their achievements. However, can they all achieve their wishes? Naturally, it didn't work. First, Russia quickly mobilized its troops to support Serbia. It quickly dispatched 80,000 troops from the Principality of Ukraine from Ukraine and placed them in Lviv in the west, pretending to defend the Austro-Hungarian Empire from invading Russia eastward. Then, it Quickly move the 50,000 troops stationed in Ukraine southward. Finally, when we arrived at Timisoara, anyone with a discerning eye would know at a glance that this was an alternative "care" for Novi Sad, which had just been acquired by the Austro-Hungarian Empire. [

In the end, the Austro-Hungarian Empire could only cancel the idea of ​​continuing southward and look back to consolidate the control of Novi Sad. They were secretly afraid of the strength of Belgrade and Zemun, as well as the tenacity of the Serbs there. They secretly wondered why the Serbs in the north were so weak, but thinking about it, they were secretly glad that the north was not that tenacious. action, otherwise, they really wouldn't be able to handle it. In the end, it even ended up being a waste of money.

they do not know. Russia's face was livid at this time. Originally, this was the territory they wanted most. Because here you can seriously wexe to the Austro-Hungarian Empire. for Russia. It is an absolutely important strategic position. With them, Russia can truly complete the wexe of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. By seizing this place, it can be said that the real three-inch capture of Austria-Hungary's snake can reduce the impact of Austria-Hungary on Russia to the lowest point. However, originally, Russia had repeatedly told the Serbian government that it wanted to To use this place as proof of the friendship between Russia and Serbia, Serbia had expressed opposition several times before, but under Russia's vague wexe several times, Serbia still used the argument that the scale was causing trouble.

It is precisely because of this that the dispute between the Ottoman Empire and Bulgaria and Serbia was actually used as a wexe by Russia, so it showed an unwillingness to pay attention to it from the beginning in order to weaken the Serbian government. They wanted Serbia to form another Romania. However, they had not waited for Serbia's reply, but they were waiting for such bad news. The Austrian Brother Empire actually took over first and took it so quickly. of Novi Sad. Now, the Austro-Hungarian Empire can really advance, attack, retreat or defend. As a result, not only Serbia will be passive in the future, but Romania, a loyal ally of Russia, will also be greatly passive against attacks from the direction of New Hungary. At the same time, there is also concern about attacks from the direction of Novi Sad in the south. It can be said that this has greatly set back Russia's strategy. It is very passive, and some of these two countries now seem to have become a burden to Russia.

You know, this was the place where Russia's sudden wave of blockade in Europe was in the past. Now it is also blocked. And Central Asia is under the blockade of the United Kingdom. Where is East Asia? The four countries of Britain, West, Germany and Japan have occupied the coastal areas. In this way , except for the Arctic Ocean, all the world's sea outlets are blocked. However, because Spain and the United Kingdom have been there for many years in the North Sea, Russia does not have any good protection there. Therefore, Russia is really tired now. I didn't get anything, but I really became the victim of a big mistake.

However, he still has to continue to protect the two countries there, otherwise, the strategic space will be even smaller. But if it is not directly reduced to the principality of Ukraine, then we will really be safe on the mainland. . This is something they absolutely don't want to see.

However, many other countries are very happy to see what Russia does not want to see. For example, China, its close neighbor in the east, has been invaded by Russia for hundreds of years. At this time, the whole country is very happy. , although the country is still in a warlord regime, this does not prevent them from being happy with the great power of their country. Everyone is smiling from the bottom of their hearts, thinking secretly in their hearts: " It would be great if Japan in the east was like this.”

"Yes, it would be great if Japan wanted to be like Russia. It's a pity that Russia is surrounded by territory, but Japan is surrounded by sea. This makes Japan natural. There are no checks and balances. Originally, we could do it. It's a pity. Yes, the reason why we are so divided now is that it makes enemies happy and relatives painful. I think Emperor Meiji and Katsura Taro of Japan are laughing in their dreams."

"Kui Shi, you are still in trouble." Lu Xun looked at Chen Shaobai with some humor. Chen Shaobai is now the governor and governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, Hu Hanmin is the governor and governor of Fujian, and Tan Yankai is the governor and governor of Jiangxi. Cai E He is the Navy Marshal of the Republic of China. However, that is in name only. In fact, he is just the naval commander of the Yangtze River Navy from Fujian to Shanghai in the south plus Jiangxi to the Yangtze Estuary. The Kuomintang in the south and the Yuan Shikai United Party in the north Each still has its own party, government and army, and Li Yuanhong's Yangtze River navy has always been wandering in the upper and middle reaches.

Today, Commander Cai E, the governor of the three provinces, was all meeting at Lu Xun, the Prime Minister's Office.

Chen Shaobai speaks without any scruples. This is mainly related to the fact that he grew up in Hong Kong under the rule of the British.

He smiled and said: "Although it's a sign, isn't it nice to be like this? After all, sometimes a sign is also a person who observes events from another aspect. Everyone knows the Japanese's evil intentions, but they have always been We have all known it for a long time but were unwilling to speak out to make it clear. In this case, I think we should talk about topics like chaos openly so that the people know what Japan thinks. In that case, our people will be more willing to talk about Japan. We must be well prepared so that we will not be panicked or confused when war breaks out with Japan in the future."

"Prime Minister, I think what Lao Chen said is true," Cai E responded: "Actually, everyone knows what is going on, but everyone sees that the government has not taken any action, so everyone thinks that the government has some countermeasures, so Everyone just nodded and said nothing for this. I think we should learn from the public opinion system of the Western world. Of course, this is the prime minister’s specialty. I think the prime minister should know better than me."

"What's your job?" Lu Xun murmured in thought, suddenly his eyes lit up, and then he said with a smile: "Yes, we can use the official attitude, and then use newspapers to randomly check the people's opinions every month To measure Japan's image by its influence, it is best to add the insights of some strategic experts. In this way, it will have a promoting effect. If the Japanese accuse us, we can directly point out that we are responding to the West. Freedom of speech in the world, especially the United Kingdom, Spain, France, etc., and Japan has always targeted these countries and claimed to be the beacon of liberal capitalism in East Asia. If we do this, we can slap them hard and make them I chose to shut up very eloquently.”

The more he spoke, Lu Xun's whole body began to tremble with excitement. Several other people also looked at Lu Xun with admiration, and secretly sighed in their hearts: Sure enough, as Prime Minister, there is no need to question his ability. They were all convinced. At the same time, I was also very excited by Lu Xun's idea.

"Prime Minister, Spain has announced that it will not send troops to help its allies casually. This seems a bit bad for us." Tan Yankai was a little worried. During this time, the emergence of this news has made many allies of Spain They were worried, especially their citizens. Citizens of various countries began to express opinions, and some even called for a discussion on the alliance relationship with Spain. Therefore, at this time, Tan Yankai's statement was very timely and correct. Several others People also looked at Lu Xun worriedly.

Everyone knows that Lu Xun was a talent trained in Spain, and Lu Xun's background was Spain. Therefore, Spain's move was tantamount to reducing its political and military help to Lu Xun. Therefore, Lu Xun's pressure There should be quite a few, but what surprised a few people was that Lu Xun ignored it and continued to work here, as if nothing happened.

Now, they finally couldn't help it anymore. It was rare for everyone to get together, so they couldn't wait to ask. (To be continued...)
