Chapter 359： The Second Vienna System Collapses

The sudden outbreak of the Putin war made the situation in Europe suddenly grim.

The Danish government requires that countries intervene in the war in accordance with the Putin Armistice Treaty and agreements reached with the countries of the Vienna system, and sanction the kingdom of Prussia, which violates the rules.

Theoretically, the Danish government's request was supported, and the Kingdom of Prussia was jointly suppressed by European countries, and even had to pay huge war reparations or punishment for cedement.

There is no doubt that the Danish demands are difficult to meet due to the complex relationship between Britain, France, Russia and Austria.

...

After the lessons of the Near East War, isolationism prevailed within the British government, and they advocated avoiding being involved in European disputes as much as possible.

The official residence of the Downing Street Prime Minister is discussing how the London government should handle itself in the changing situation in Europe.

Foreign Minister Raslin analyzed: "The Prussians suddenly provoked this Putin war, mainly because the three countries, Russia, France and Austria, put too much pressure on them.

At the same time, it borders three major countries, and the mainland is separated by two places. The Berlin government has always had a strong sense of distress, for fear of being divided up by the three countries without attention.

As early as the Paris Conference in 1853, regarding the division of the German region, we had proposed the exchange of land between the Kingdom of Prussia and the Federal Empire of Germany. As a result, the two sides did not succeed.

The Kingdom of Prussia lost a chance to merge its homeland and had to maintain huge armaments to ensure the security of its territory.

Now the French are peeking into their Rhineland region, the Austrians want to take back Silesia and the Saxony region, and the Russians are ambitious about the city of Poland.

The three countries did not take action, mainly because of mutual restraint, and their interests could not be reached.

There has been no compromise on the ownership of the Rhineland region between Austria and France, and the ownership of Silesia between Russia and Austria is also controversial.

Taking advantage of the contradictions of various countries and their own strength, the Kingdom of Prussia was temporarily preserved, but the crisis has not been resolved.

In fact, as early as 1853, some people in the country proposed to support Prussia, merge the German Federation and the Kingdom of Prussia, and make the European continent go all out.

This plan died before it even started. The cost of supporting the Kingdom of Prussia was too great, but its role was very limited.

Even when this country is established, it will be destroyed. In order to guarantee the leadership status in the German region, the Vienna government is likely to compromise with France and Russia in exchange for incomplete German regional unification.

Both: the French acquired the German territory west of the Rhine, and Austria abandoned the Italian region; the Russians acquired East Prussia, West Prussia, Pomerania, Posen, Silesia, etc. and parts of Austrian Poland; Under the German region.

In order to avoid the worst situation, we chose the German region to be divided into three plans, and promoted the establishment of the second Vienna system, which created a situation of peace and stability in the European continent for more than ten years.

After the French annexed the Kingdom of Sardinia, everyone realized that the Vienna system was about to end, and the Kingdom of Prussia had the deepest sense of crisis.

They chose to take military adventures when the Russians were the weakest. Whenever there is turmoil on the European continent, they will be involved.

Now the Berlin government wants to take advantage of European countries, including us, and does not want to see the opportunity of the Russians to complete the reform, serving as a weapon for everyone to fight the Russians. "

"It is impossible to support the Kingdom of Prussia. Now is the industrial age. Where shall we go to find a market for them?

But supporting them in their fight against the Russians seems a bit viable. If we can take this opportunity, we will join forces with European nations to interrupt the Russian reforms and even split Russia. "Treasurer Agarwal said

This is a real problem. If you open the history book, you know that the British have supported many countries. But in fact this support is very limited, always generous to others.

Now that there is no such injustice on the European continent, the neighbors around Prussia will not have any trouble, and they will be divided up before they grow up.

To put it plainly, now that the cake has been divided up, the rise of the new country can only grab food from the old empire, and Russia and France will not give them this opportunity. The greater the British support, the sooner Prussia died.

Navy Secretary Edward objected: "It is not so easy. If the Russians collapse so easily, they are not worthy of our worst enemy.

Whether it is the Polish Independence Movement or the Kingdom of Prussia, they can only give the Russians a little trouble, and they must defeat this great empire unless the two countries go to battle in person. I don't think it's time to persuade France and Austria to join forces to suppress the Russians.

The Austrians have always maintained the Russian-Australian alliance, fearing to become the object of Russian invasion, and even hesitating to put the Russians into the Balkans.

They border too many areas with the Russians. Unless the Austrians can be convinced that the Russians can be beaten to death, it is impossible for the Vienna government to take risks.

I suggest a limited investment, just add chaos to the Russians. It is unrealistic to solve the Russian problem at one time, and we do not need to take risks. "

"I also support a limited amount of funding to provide loans and weapons and ammunition to the Kingdom of Prussia and the Polish independent organization. There is no need to play in person.

The Russian government appears to be in trouble, but the Tsarist army is not in disorder. The annihilated troops in the Polish area are all Polish natives who have just been recruited. They cannot represent the true strength of the Tsar's army.

This time it was able to consume part of the strength of the Russians, interrupt or delay their reform process, even if it was successful. "

...

In Paris, the French government almost made a decision similar to that of the British, giving money, giving weapons, and returning volunteers, except that they would not send troops in person.

Even Napoleon III was ready for robbery in the fire, but the target of the robbery was not the Russians, but Prussia, who was barely considered an ally.

The successful annexation of the Kingdom of Sardinia has inspired the ambitions of the French. Capitalists can't stand the shortage of coal supply, they have to face the dilemma of high-priced imports, and constantly encourage the government to take action in the Rhineland region.

The power of capital was powerful, and the French government was inevitably affected by the monetary offensive. No action was taken, that was Napoleon III's brain online, knowing the bottom line of each country.

Don't think that the joint defense treaties of various countries are a joke. If they really cross the line, they might be another anti-French alliance.

The chance of this happening is as high as 80%, and Napoleon III naturally cannot take risks. Even if it is to do it, it must also pull people into the water and share international pressure.

Now supporting the Kingdom of Prussia is nothing more than to cheer the Berlin government. Whether they win or lose, the French can make a profit.

If the Prussians were lucky enough to pull the Russians from the position of continental overlord, they would make a lot of money.

As for whether the kingdom of Prussia will grow larger, it is completely out of Napoleon III's consideration. Even if you want to expand, you need somewhere.

If the Prussians dare to annex Russian lands, it is estimated that all European countries will support their righteous actions.

The prerequisite is to be able to survive the revenge of the Tsarist government, otherwise all the benefits will only exist temporarily and are destined to be lost.

...

There is no doubt that the decision of Britain and France directly announced the collapse of the second Vienna system. How could it be maintained that the two major powers who took the lead took the lead in breaking the rules?

After Britain and France have stated their positions, Franz naturally will not choose to stick to it, but anyway, the historical role of this system has already played out.

After more than ten years of development, the strength of Austria has changed dramatically, and it can withstand the shock of European chaos.

The only big country that adheres to this system is the Russian Empire. They want to continue to maintain this system, and that's what the terms of the Vienna system are now in their favor.

For example: On the issue of the Pudan war, the Tsarist government can use the agreement reached in the second Vienna system as the legal basis to attack the Kingdom of Prussia.

With the legal basis in hand, the direct consequence is that most European public opinion is supporting the Kingdom of Denmark. This war was recognized by the public as: Prussia was invading Denmark.

Under pressure from public opinion, British and French support for Prussia was confined to the secrets, with the exception of the German Federation and Austria, and all countries were condemning the Prussian government.

Failure to condemn the Prussian government is not tantamount to supporting them. After the last Pudan war, people in the German region had no confidence in the Prussian government.

The Munich Daily denounced the Prussian government as a robber and accused the Prussian government of sending troops to Denmark to rob the country in order to get rid of its financial difficulties, not at all to maintain German sovereignty.

This is the information left over from the last Pudan war. There are pictures and truths that can prove that the Prussian army organized a robbery.

There is no need to explain, this is the case with the European army in this era. As long as there are no troops looted in the homeland, they can be regarded as disciplined.

The Vienna Daily directly commented that the Prussian government was running out of money and was ready to use the Pudan war to cheat donations.

The deceived people have the most say, and many people still remember it. Even after more than a decade, the Prussian government is often pulled out of the whip.

In response to public opinion, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Vienna issued a declaration of neutrality as soon as possible. There is no support, not even verbal support.

The Prussian government did not even dare to slogan to maintain German sovereignty, and the German nationalists were also very dissatisfied.

People who had originally intended to support the Kingdom of Prussia to recapture the two principalities also retreated. Many people worry that the Prussian approach is to completely cut off from Germany and learn from Switzerland and the Netherlands as a self-contained system.
