Opening 1861: I Just Inherited the Dutch Throne Chapter 500 Bismarck's Dread

On February 17, 1869, one day before Dutch Prime Minister Tolbeck announced that he would communicate with British Prime Minister Disraeli, the largest leader of the British Empire's opposition party, the former Prime Minister, the current MP, and Prime Minister Disraeli's old rival Christon officially addresses the House of Commons.

One of the most high-profile hot events was the visit of the Speaker of the Dutch House of Representatives to Spain, which became the most interesting content for the former British Prime Minister.

On the Continent, Bismarck also gave a speech to his own House of Representatives, and this event also became one of his important contents.

"No matter what political task Huntington undertakes as a Spanish national, or to support the Dutch liberal vote and enrich political capital for the Dutch parliamentary elections starting in the second half of the year, for London, what he represents The meaning is that the fourth person in the Dutch state system is the second-in-line successor to the prime ministership after Senate Senator John Bonan.

Once his footsteps really set foot on the southwestern border of Spain and announced his support for Spain's sovereignty over Gibraltar, it will undoubtedly officially declare that it has subverted the invisible tacit understanding between the British Empire and many countries, challenged the bottom line of the United Kingdom, and substantially enhanced the mutual understanding with Spain. Opposing the influence of the British Empire in the western Mediterranean is not only a destruction of Anglo-Dutch relations, but also a huge provocation to the British Empire.

Therefore, it can be seen that the British Empire attaches great importance to this matter. It shows that on February 10, British Foreign Secretary Russell stated that if Huntington visited Spain and announced his support for Spain's territorial sovereignty, it would seriously endanger the Anglo-Dutch and Anglo-Spanish relations. Shock the political foundation of the three countries, send wrong signals to Spain, etc. Russell also stressed that all consequences will be borne by the two countries.

After that, the British official even upgraded the tough response and prevention position to the level we counted.

Hugh Smith, the former editor-in-chief of The Times of London, the president of Cambridge University and the dean of the School of Political Science, has always been the official speaker of the Tory Party of the Disraeli government of the United Kingdom. In the "Guardian", which is also pro-Tory, he proposed that the British navy could circle Spain and even the Far East of the Netherlands. This influential figure of the British Tory party believes that the British Empire can only fight back with resolute preventive actions. Jose's provocation made the Netherlands and even other countries that were waiting and waiting to understand the price of playing the card of Gibraltar, which was the only language in the British Empire that they could understand. Only such an approach can truly reflect the sovereignty of the British Empire over Gibraltar, and can also maintain the majesty of the British Empire.

That is to say, no matter what political calculus the Netherlands and Spain have, the British Empire will make the worst plan and make the most complete preparations, not to prevent Gibraltar from being made a sacrifice by the Dutch and other kings to contain Britain in the Mediterranean Sea and even Southwest Europe.

In particular, the Speaker of the House of Representatives Huntington has always been known for being tough in Anglo-Dutch relations in the past. When Britain lost the battle in South Africa, the Speaker of the House of Representatives even appealed to William IV, the Dutch military and the Tolbek government to let him go. The Dutch supported the Boers of the Transvaal Republic to defeat the British in South Africa, allowing South Africa to return to the arms of the Netherlands.

Even some time ago, after the British Army in the American Civil War, the British Army supported the losses of the Confederate States in the south of the United States. , then criticized Britain for creating chaos around the world, etc.

Now the Speaker of the House of Representatives chooses to visit Spain at this time and support the sovereignty of Gibraltar, which Spain never forgets, to replicate the battle between the United Kingdom and Spain. This Speaker of the House of Representatives obviously makes the United Kingdom restless. The direction of vigilance and categorical prevention. "

Bismarck looked at the congressmen who were listening very seriously, and said: "However, the sharp turmoil brought about by the Anglo-Dutch game may not be in the sight of Spanish politicians. For Spain, as long as it can help Yinsabel II The world and Prime Minister Ramon Narvaez's cabinet election will bring the greatest benefits, as long as it can mobilize the populist sentiment, consolidate its ruling position for a long time, and wipe out the only consideration.

For example, Queen Insabel II, who just went to the Netherlands to attend the meeting with William IV and preached "a new breakthrough in the relationship between Spain and the Netherlands", recently said that the past 10 years have been the best ten years between Spain and the Netherlands, and it is also the independence of Spain. In the best ten years, the queen also said that she would not let other powers see the oppression of Spain as invisible, nor would she allow Spain to lose its status as a great power. She seems to consider the current issue from the Dutch position, and her attitude towards Britain and France is similar to that of the Netherlands. This is clearly an abstention mentality of externalizing responsibility for all issues to the land neighbors to the north and the sea to the north. "

Bismarck said solemnly: "As far as I know, the news that the Speaker of the Netherlands, Huntington's visit to Spain, came out today. This news has received a great positive response in Spain, and the major newspapers in Spain are all rushing to report with the headlines. Although the Spanish official in Cixi is relatively low-key, including the Spanish Minister of Foreign Affairs Tonis, who said that there is no definite news of Huntington's visit to Spain, it is not difficult to imagine that Spanish politicians secretly sneered and full of anticipation."

"Just like 'José Friendship', their timeless 'emotional card', if the Dutch No. 4 comes to Spain and does something to support Spain's sovereignty in Gibraltar will set off again The collective excitement of "Jose friendship", regardless of faction, is intoxicated by rock-solid self-fantasies. As for the shaking of the relationship between England, Spain and England and the Netherlands, for Spanish politicians who only have votes of the opposite sex, they have long since abandoned them. Way beyond the clouds."

Bismarck concludes: "Spain indulges in the feeling of being held in the palm of the hand of the Dutch government and politicians, and regards the presence of the incoming emissary of the hard-core ally the Netherlands as a supreme 'honor', but once the beautiful slogan is torn away. Going back to the reality of international politics, just as Napoleon III of the French Empire said frankly, the Netherlands is for its own national interests, not for Spain's good.

What the Netherlands is planning is nothing more than Spain, as a bargaining chip on the negotiating table for the promotion of the Netherlands to a great power, in order to bargain with great powers such as Britain, France, and Prussia, in order to establish an equal position for the Netherlands. This is a disguised form of tying Spain to its own battlefield. Together in the car, complete the dramatic change of the Netherlands. To this end, they even advocated that Spain should learn from Sweden's shield strategy. IGN Spain became a sharp bayonet-knife in the rear of the United Kingdom and France when dealing with countries such as the Netherlands, which made it difficult for the United Kingdom and France to sleep. Of course, Spain has also become the object of British and French dissatisfaction. Make its people the ones who contributed their lives and paid the price for the advancement of the Netherlands.

Regardless of whether Huntington, the Dutch speaker of the House of Representatives, visited Spain in the end, Spanish rulers and politicians have already been hypnotized by the wave after wave of 'pro-Dutch, anti-British and French' climaxes. Nearby"+Bookmark+
