Chapter 516： Different paths

Vienna Palace, looking at the telegram in his hands, Franz didn't know what to say. Described as "people lie at home, the pot comes from the sky", it seems to be a play.

This time, it was Austria that made it up. If the place of negotiation is not in the Austrian embassy, ​​no matter how President Juarez died, it has nothing to do with Austria.

Throw responsibility to Compton Minister? This is not right, people are doing their due diligence. Placing the place of negotiation in the Austrian embassy is also to gain an advantage in the negotiations and fight for greater benefits for Austria.

President Juarez's death was only an accident, and Minister Compton had no responsibility and was not responsible for it.

Now a black pot has fallen from the sky, no matter how to explain it, there will be some people accused: Austria poisoned President Juarez; or that: Massimiliano I was a poison hand in revenge.

In fact, Franz was not prepared to kill President Juarez. His presence is not a threat to Austria, and it is more valuable to keep him than to kill him.

Not to mention Massimilino I, if he was able to assassinate President Juarez in negotiations, then he would not fall into the current field.

Prime Minister Felix proposed: "Your Majesty, this happened, and we should withdraw our troops from Mexico. At this time, they should be held accountable again, and morally justified."

Franz nodded, no matter how good the reason was before, now that a dead Mexican president in the Austrian embassy can explain it.

Continue to be aggressive, Austria's international image will be over. This is inconsistent with the long-term business philosophy of the Vienna government. Even shameless British people cannot do such things.

"Order Governor Hummer to withdraw. By the way, even the embassy and the diaspora will withdraw. Mexico will soon be in chaos. We will not go to this muddy water."

The process is not important, the ultimate goal has been achieved. Juarez's sudden death, the Republicans struggled for the successor's place.

Juarez was the president more than ten years ago, and his term has ended long ago. In the middle of this decade, everyone has been fighting guerrillas. Naturally, elections are impossible.

Since the overthrow of Massimiliano I, the Mexican election is in preparation. If President Juarez does not die, his chances of re-election are very high.

Unfortunately, there is no such thing. Without Juarez, Mexico will never have a second place to live in.

The central government lacks prestige, internal contradictions cannot be suppressed, and international forces are reignited. It is difficult to imagine that the civil war will not erupt.

Perhaps in the near future, the North-South Song Society of the United States will make its debut in Mexico. Both the Confederate and the United States want to support a Mexican government that is close to them and increase their influence in North America.

Britain, France, Austria and the Three Kingdoms are not lonely masters. The French are right in shrinking their strategy. As Mexican creditors, they want to keep a low profile, but they are not allowed in reality!

Both England and Austria are so busy that they have problems if they don't do things. I don't know why, during the expansion of overseas colonies, Austria was very seriously affected by John Bull, and the methods of doing things became more and more skilled.

Foreign Minister Weissenberg analyzed: "His Majesty, it is enough to abandon Mexico City. We have already occupied several states in southern Mexico, and we can start slowly.

The Austrian Central American colonies have always had territorial disputes with Mexico. These issues need to be slowly negotiated and resolved. We can wait until Mexico chooses a new government to discuss. "

With the death of President Juarez, Austria must make a gesture to the outside world. Withdrawing troops from Mexico has become inevitable, but how to withdraw must test technology.

The labor division can't do anything for nothing, at least it has to recover the cost of sending troops. Hold on for a while, waiting for the outbreak of the Mexican Civil War to establish the established facts of occupation of the southern territories.

Anyway, as long as Mexico does not elect a government recognized by Austria, it can continue to dominate. It doesn't take long, it only takes three or five years to be swallowed.

This is a practical need. Planters in Austrian Central America have long wanted to expand, and now they need to calm their emotions.

The Vienna government needs them to maintain a level of strength that will prevent Americans from reaching out to Central America. As long as Austria still dominates Central America for a day, don't want to start the Panama Canal.

After a little thought, Franz made the decision: "Don't take the banner of the government, Austria has never invaded Mexico.

Southern Mexico is just a bunch of civilians who are unwilling to accept the Mexican government's rule. The Mexican government is incompetent and can't even control its own people. We can only express regret. "

Once he lowered the bottom line, Franz was not afraid to pretend to be stupid. Anyway, as long as Austria clearly does not occupy Mexican territory, the international community cannot say anything.

If the Mexican government is capable, it can send troops to take back these areas. Of course, one-time success is required, and if it fails, the mob will expand. If you fail once and lose a few more states, you can only blame them for their incompetence.

After three or five years, the storm of this incident has passed, and these areas will join the Austrian Central American colonies.

This is the rule of the game. When it is hypocritical, it must be hypocritical. As long as the substantive benefits are in hand, it's okay to have more cuts.

Most of the gains from this expansion are from planters in Central American Austria. Now that the gains have been made, the price must be paid, and the responsibility of governing the local area rests on them.

Mexico did not rule well. The French did not swallow them. Franz did not think that Austria could swallow them all.

Now Franz has decided to decentralize, and the colonists of Austrian Central America can eat as much land as they have. The extent to which they can expand depends entirely on their own strength, and the consequences of failure to expand are also their own responsibility.

...

Mexico City, the death of President Juarez, has caused a storm in the city. Under the organization of a caring person, the crowds marching and demonstrating the Austrian embassy have been flooded.

The tolerance of the deceased is higher than that of the living. President Juarez was under attack before he died. Now that he is so dead, the image suddenly rises, as if he became a saint overnight.

Minister Compton in the embassy had been stilted for a long time, and the demonstrators outside had been bombarding nonstop for 24 hours. The slogan shouted so loudly that a dog in the embassy area was shaking.

In order to prevent the marching people from impacting the embassy area, Minister Compton has transferred a battalion from outside the city, a cordon has been drawn outside, and Gatlin has been erected at the gate.

This is not a trivial matter. In just a few days, there have been many shock events. The dozens of dead bodies parked outside are evidence.

In this respect, it is wise for Franz to order the evacuation of the embassy. Otherwise, the personal safety of the embassy staff may not be guaranteed.

While the Compton Minister was at a loss, a young military officer held a telegram and said in his ear: "His Excellency, this is the latest order of the Vienna government."

One took the telegram, and the date was five days ago. Compton didn't care about the time, watching the news of the order to leave Mexico, he was speechless for a moment.

Even the embassy did not retain it. Obviously, this is to give up Mexico completely. The Embassy District, which has been in business for several years, has to be abandoned in this way. Minister Compton has all kinds of flavors in his heart.

After a short pause, Minister Compton said sternly: "Notify the Mexican government that we are going to evacuate and order them to disperse the crowd within three hours, otherwise everything will be at their own risk."

I ’m leaving, naturally I do n’t need to worry about anything. The great powers have never lacked tough means. If the Mexican government continues to be unaware of life and death, it is not unreasonable to wash the city before leaving.

Not annexing Mexico does not mean that Austria will not be afraid of their power. The main reason is that it is easier to defeat government forces than to rule Mexico.

Mexico's territory has been shrinking again and again, and it still has nearly two million square kilometers. Such a large site is mostly a mountainous area. If you want to clean it up, you can't do it without hundreds of thousands of troops.

This cost has far outweighed the benefits. The French gave up Mexico simply because they saw this clearly and were unwilling to continue filling this hole.

It's different now. Austria is leaving anyway. Even if it was furious, Minister Compton had no pressure in his heart.

How did the protesters come from outside, but he knew well. The Mexican government did not dare to directly find the trouble in Austria, and pushed the people forward, hiding behind itself and watching the excitement.

There has been no seizures, it is not that Compton Minister was afraid, mainly because it is unnecessary. On the surface, this is creating trouble for Austria, but in fact the biggest trouble will be left to the Mexican government.

If you have governing experience, the Mexican government will definitely not do that. Public opinion is a double-edged sword. When Austria evacuated, the popular opinion was to kill the Republican government.

To put it bluntly, the moment that President Juarez's autopsy report was published, it was decided that Austria's political blackmail failed.

From start to finish, the Mexican government is doing nothing. Even if there were no protesters, the Vienna government would abandon Mexico.

Having received news of Austria's withdrawal, the Mexican government has rarely been efficient. This time, the major factions within the government unified their opinions and quickly sent the plague **** away.

The aftermath broke out, and clashes broke out between the protesters and the police who came to disperse them. Even the organizers of the demonstrations were unable to control the moody people.

Three hours passed quickly, and there was a mess of porridge outside the embassy area. Watching the Mexican government crack down on the protesters, Compton just sneered.

Even if he was moving, it wouldn't be a matter of hours. He still had time to watch the excitement. As for the trouble, Compton is not worried at all, and the Mexican government is still worried that they will not leave.

Anyone who dares to prevent the Austrians from evacuating is the worst enemy of the Mexican government. The Mexican government, which lacks governing experience, does not know that the Austrian withdrawal is just the beginning of trouble.

Withdrawal is taking place on this side, while the other side is stepping up military operations. The captive colonists will not give up this rare opportunity for expansion.
