Chapter 299： Downhole

Palace of vienna

Franz looked at the telegram sent to him by Napoleon III and said with a smile: "The French want to do something to the Kingdom of Sardinia, and now we want to fulfill our promise. What do you think?"

The Minister of the Interior, Grand Duke Louis, proposed: "His Majesty, the French are ambitious in Italy, and I am afraid a Sardinian kingdom cannot satisfy their appetite.

Once the French influence is penetrated into the Italian region, our national defense pressure will increase. For the sake of security in Lombardy, we should stop this behavior. "

Metternich objected: "Without such seriousness, the Vienna system has just been established, and the French will not violate the treaty now, at most they will take advantage of it, and it will not be possible to swallow the Sardinian kingdom in one go.

If the French really want to annex the Kingdom of Sardinia, then give them well. Once the French take this step, a new anti-French alliance can be established. "

The Prime Minister Felix sneered and said, "Yes, France is no longer the French of the Napoleonic era. Since Napoleon III had this ambition, we can complete them.

The European countries have just relaxed their vigilance against the French, and now the French have jumped out again, and we push one more up and let them stand higher. "

...

Strength determines the position. If Austria's strength is poor, it is natural to prevent the French from expanding and take precautions.

Things are different now, even if the French annexed the Kingdom of Sardinia, it was within Austria's reach.

A strong Russia + a strong France, in this case, the emergence of a strong Austria on the European continent is also inconspicuous.

Without them, the growing Austria would not be a target for much longer.

In this case, pushing the French to make them fatter, which is more in the interest of Austria.

Franz made the decision: "Tell the French that we will keep our promise and support their annexation of the Kingdom of Sardinia.

However, they must find a reason that is acceptable to everyone, and the Vienna system cannot be broken. "

The Vienna system is Austria's national policy and will not change for at least a decade. In this case, France's annexation of the Kingdom of Sardinia was too eye-catching and would affect the stability of the Vienna system.

However, in order for the French to attract firepower, Franz did not mind weakening the Vienna system. Anyway, this is only used to maintain the balance of the European continent, and has limited binding power on several big countries.

As long as the problem of slow population growth cannot be solved, France will not be Austria's confidant. Even the annexation of the Kingdom of Sardinia, which caused the population to soar in the short term, would have no effect.

The kingdom of Sardinia, which has become fanatical with nationalism, is not easy to rule. It will be difficult to digest this area without decades of effort.

The Habsburg dynasty has been operating in the Italian region for hundreds of years. After Franz came to power, he carried out a large cleansing of the local area and relied on the liberation of serfs and the purchase of land to buy the people at the bottom.

Because of the Osaian War, Franz made the Kingdom of Sardinia a knight, and took responsibility for the death of hundreds of thousands of people.

Just look at the current civil relations between the Kingdom of Lombardy and the Kingdom of Sardinia. Even though the two sides border on each other, the people on both sides are still dead, and you know the power of hatred.

Under the circumstances that can't find the back pot man, did the French dare to carry out a big cleansing? How can nationalism be suppressed if there is no major cleansing?

Metternich replied, "Yes, Your Majesty!"

Chancellor of the Treasury Carl reminded: "His Majesty, since Italian militants have conspired to assassinate Napoleon III, it is likely to be against you.

It is necessary for us to conduct a crackdown on law and order to eliminate all possible hidden dangers. "

Franz is very scared of death. He has always let go of this kind of existence that may threaten his life.

Not to mention pardoning the assassins, even if it is just the motive for the assassination and has not had time to act, it will be sent to the gallows. In this regard, Austrian law is much stricter.

After a moment of contemplation, Franz said aggressively: "Well, a serious investigation is indeed needed. This is the responsibility of the Ministry of the Interior, and these rats are hidden in the corners.

All individuals and organizations associated with these mice must be thoroughly investigated. I'm going to see how many mice are hidden in Vienna. "

There is no doubt that someone is going to be unlucky. No matter what your background is, once you are contaminated with Xun Jun's sin, it will be dead. Although they haven't acted yet, the ending is the same.

Before that, the first unlucky thing must be the gang members and the streets. Every time after Franz's succession, the government will use them to sacrifice flags.

As long as you get caught, it's all started in ten years. So far, only some people have entered, and no one has come out of it yet.

In Vienna, none of the gang organizations have been on the table. The timid old rivers and lakes that can escape the calamity cannot be low-key.

Even if you quietly make money in the gray area, those who dare to run out and dominate the king are short-lived ghosts.

...

London

Since the outbreak of the Indian rebellion, the British government has had a difficult time, and several major powers have launched small moves.

The Russians are nothing but the enemy. The two sides have long torn their faces. The Tsarist government has publicly supported the Indian Insurgency Party, and the two countries have declared war.

Austria's expansion in the Mediterranean and the African continent is still within their tolerance. It has not lost its own interests anyway.

The French government, which was supposed to be pro-British, would be a little bit safe, even if it was cheaper in the colonies, but Granville reluctantly found that the French still had no ambitions for the Italian region.

What's even more irritating is that the excuse was delivered by the Italians themselves. Even if the London government is willing to support the Kingdom of Sardinia, it is not enough.

Hooligans also need to be divided into objects. France is not a soft persimmon. It belongs to the object of reasoning.

But now the French still have a moral advantage. Members of the Italian Coal Burning Party conspired to assassinate Napoleon III, and the murderer was captured on the spot.

Granville thought more and more of the headache, and cursed angrily: "Damn radicals, are they all **** in their heads?

The assassination of Napoleon III, they also figured out such a bad idea, should there still be someone to assassinate Franz! "

Granville didn't know what he was saying. The Coal Burning Party did have plans to assassinate Franz, and has already taken action.

It is a pity that when he met Franz, the old otaku, who didn't go out in the palace, there was no chance to start.

It wasn't until the time of the severe beatings that the police found a bomb during a search of the apartment because of suspicious signs.

Of course, Granville would rather haven't guessed that one France would be troublesome enough. Adding another Austria would really be overwhelming.

Foreign Minister Thomas analyzed: "His Prime Minister, it is too late to say these things now. The French are accountable to the Kingdom of Sardinia. If Napoleon III cannot be accounted for, they will not give up.

On this issue, European countries will not support the Kingdom of Sardinia. It is still the Sardinian government that has handed over the activists and gave no reason to the French. "

Handing over the killer is easy to say and hard to do. The charcoal burning party's influence in the Kingdom of Sardinia is not small, and its influence in the people is very large, it is not so easy to move at all.

With the outbreak of nationalism, the people of Sardinia are obviously unable to calm down, they will not seriously consider wrong and right, and will only choose to resist hard.

Under the pressure of public opinion, does the Sardinian government dare to take action against the charcoal burning party? Or do they have the strength to do something with the charcoal party?

Chancellor of the Exchequer John Russell shook his head and said, "To this day, it is not enough to hand over a few scapegoats to solve the problem.

The French wanted the Kingdom of Sardinia to surrender the murderers, the main purpose was for the benefit, otherwise they would not accuse the Sardinian government of planning the plot.

If the benefits given by the Sardinian government do not satisfy them, the suspicion can also become a fact. Once the French define the killer as the Sardinian government, war is inevitable. "

The killer must be surrendered, and things can't be finished without giving the French breath. The interests are also indispensable. Napoleon III will not give up without paying the price that is satisfactory to the French.

How to say it is also the emperor of a country. If you are scared of the spiritual loss, you must make up for it. The specific land cut or compensation depends on the actual operation.

Granville thought about it and said, "The Foreign Ministry has come to mediate this conflict, and let's see what the French want.

It would be best to draw the Austrians and put pressure on the French together. Presumably, the Vienna government does not want to see the French continue to expand. "

The French government's vigilance has never been relaxed, and preventing the French from expanding is a consistent national policy of the British government.

The century-old feud between Britain and France is not a joke. Don't think that the current French government is pro-British, and there are fewer conflicts between the two sides. In fact, Britain and France are still each other's biggest competitors in overseas colonial activities.
