The War Court and Lap Pillow, Austria’s Mandate of Heaven

【War court and knee pillow, Austria's destiny】【】

"I understand what you mean, and I also sympathize with the people in Central America. But the chief culprit of the civil strife is the leaders they elected themselves."

Archbishop Rauscher was surprised by the remarks of the "natural saint" in his own eyes. This is actually not surprising. The church and other parties have whitewashed this stupid ruler out of their own interests.

"Grand Duke Franz, did you just refer to His Excellency President Morazan? But he is the only person who can save the Central American Federation. Only he can maintain the fragile balance between different groups with different interests. If it is really a different rule Or, I am afraid that it is really impossible to coordinate the relationship between the aborigines, native whites, European whites and French."

After hearing this, Franz shook his head again and again to express that he was helpless. He trusted his intelligence network more than the Archbishop's word for it.

"Then you should go to the great President Ramosan. And according to my estimation, the French only need to kill for a while to end this war. After all, they are taking the most efficient means now.

Archbishop Rauscher was taken aback, he didn't expect Franz to say such cruel words so calmly.

"His Royal Highness, the merciful God will not approve of your 'most efficient means'."

Franz has always questioned the theological level of this magic stick. And this discussion allowed the former to further confirm the impression that the latter took this position only because of the family's shadow.

"God is merciful, but he also needs to send down brimstone and fire from time to time to alert the world. So does the monarch in the world, and how can mortals know what God thinks?"

This can be regarded as Franz's ultimatum. He just couldn't find a substitute for the time being, and he didn't intend to restore the church. At this time, he must show his attitude and let the archbishop in front of him realize who is the master.

Franz's wariness against the church began the moment he had to decide to use its power.

It's just that in the eyes of the archbishop, it's another scene. He felt that Franz's understanding of the "Bible" was beyond ordinary people, and this was one of the characteristics of a natural saint, and he only needed to listen to the teachings.

"You are right. We are duty-bound to end the suffering of the Central American people. Please rest assured that the Imperial Church will always be your most solid backing."

Archbishop Rauscher is indeed a devout believer, but he has never been loyal to the Pope from beginning to end.

After speaking, Archbishop Rauscher took out a box from his clothes and solemnly handed it to Franz.

"what is this?"

"This is a list of combat brothers trained by the church, as well as information about our supporters in the Central American Federation."

In fact, these confidential documents are the result of many years of painstaking experience by Rauscher and his subordinates. It has been a while since the last internal meeting of the Austrian church passed a resolution to expand to Central America, but there has been no opportunity to intervene.

However, Franz did not pay much attention to the "capital" of the church. After all, after the Thirty Years' War, almost all European churches could no longer influence the politics between countries.

But after a brief glance, it still made him feel terrified. With ample funds as financial backing, the scale of Astartes has expanded from 800 a few years ago to 5,000 people, a full six times more than before, and its so-called supporters are spread throughout the Central American Federation.

"Great, you can use these two channels to influence the supporters of Nicaragua and Costa Rica, and finally convince them to become independent and negotiate a separate peace with the French."

Franz's words made Rauscher puzzled, because the incentive for France to intervene in the Central American civil war was to prevent the division of the Central American Federation, and how could it be easy to change course after a lot of sacrifice and consumption? After pondering for a while, he raised his objection.

"I have to remind you that this proposal probably won't appeal to either the French or La Mosan. Even if the two sides really make some concessions, I'm afraid they will set extremely harsh prerequisites."

Archbishop Rauscher's concern is not unreasonable, but it happens from time to time.

"You are wrong, Archbishop. It doesn't matter what Ramosan thinks, we just need to convince the French. As you said, this proposal did not interest them before, but now the situation has changed, It won't do them any good to drag this war on any longer."

In fact, Rauscher was more worried that the ruler of the Central American Federation would lead his army to attack Nicaragua and Costa Rica.

The two pieces of land at this time are recognized as out-and-out bad land, and cannot satisfy the church's ambition to expand its influence in Central America and the Caribbean.

Of course, Franz never intended to swallow up the entirety of Central America. Even if conditions permit, the cost of doing so is too great.

In fact, instead of monopolizing the entire Central American Federation, Franz would also pull Britain into the chaotic situation in Central America. After all, Britain has long coveted the gold and high-quality ports of Honduras, so how could they miss this opportunity?

At this time, the relatively developed areas of the Central American Federation were Guatemala and Honduras. The two places were famous for their rich gold, silver and high-quality wood, and they had been coveted by Western powers for a long time.

"But what good is the independence of Nicaragua and Costa Rica to us?"

Today's Nicaragua is not as famous for its gold production as later generations, but is rendered as a cursed land; muddy swamps and flooded lakes are flooding everywhere, and all kinds of mosquitoes and poisonous snakes are born as a result, as well as natural disasters and diseases, etc. All of this confirms its name as a cursed place~www.wuxiaspot.com~ What's more deadly is that the local population is always in a downward trend, and laborers have to be imported from other countries. However, because of its deep burial, a large number of rich gold veins were not discovered until the end of the 20th century.

Meanwhile, Nicaragua's isolation was exacerbated by its somewhat defensive wall built to defend against invasions from El Salvador and Honduras.

And Costa Rica is a piece of undeveloped bad land. Today, 80% of its population is concentrated near the east coast, and its economy is based on agriculture and fishing. The central part is separated by rugged mountains, and the western part is almost uninhabited.

"At least we ended the war and saved those innocent people. That's what matters, isn't it?"

The plausible and irrefutable truth of "naturally born saints" made Rauscher feel a little ashamed for a while.

A religious leader who always talked about saving the world actually talked about benefits, while another mortal who pursued efficiency didn't ask for anything in return. The sun really rose from the west.

Of course, Franz is not a madman who only talks about giving without asking for anything in return. It's just that there is no need to tell everything as soon as possible. After all, it is right to keep a hole card when dealing with people, otherwise it will be very uncomfortable to be manipulated.

After hesitating for a long time, Archbishop Rauscher couldn't help asking, "Then do we still need to stay and continue helping those who are suffering?"
