Chapter 534: Winter is Coming (4)
"Sell newspapers, sell newspapers! "La Rij", the revolution broke out in Hungary, and Budapest was bleeding! ”
"Sell newspapers, sell newspapers! "La Rij", the revolution broke out in Hungary, and Budapest was bleeding! ”
The newsboy carried a newspaper bag and sold it along the street, and the doll spoke Roman vernacular, and Queen Sissi, who was passing by in the car, was immediately shocked when she heard it. She immediately stopped www.biquge.info the carriage and told the coachman to hurry up and buy a newspaper.
The coachman didn't even stop, but just whistled, and the newsboy's eyes were fixed on the driver like a falcon, and he ran briskly at the same time. The coachman simply slowed down the carriage, took the copper plate out of his pocket and threw it out. The copper plate drew a beautiful and stable arc in the air, and then was firmly grasped by the newsboy. Then a newspaper was thrown over, and the driver grabbed it smoothly. The smooth back and forth movement even sparked some cheers. With a proud smile on his face, the coachman did not turn his head, but turned his back to his arm and smoothly slipped the newspaper in through the small window behind him.
Queen Sissi didn't notice the wonderful performance of her coachman, she grabbed the newspaper and immediately flipped through it. On the front page of the headline was written the gimmick shouted by the newsboy, 'Revolution breaks out in Hungary, Budapest is bleeding!' Reading the news at a blistering speed, Queen Sisi realized that she couldn't see anything she wanted from the story. No matter how sensational the editors describe the 'tragic situation' in Budapest, Queen Sisi can see at a glance the nature of this fabrication.
Although his heart was pounding, and his brain felt a little dizzy, Her Majesty found that she was still able to think calmly. She first realized that she was not really surprised, and that she had been reluctant to stay in Budapest for the last two years because she felt that the aristocracy had acted excessively. After meeting Wang Mingshan, Queen Sissi had a deeper understanding of the firmness that revolutionaries can achieve. In Wang Mingshan's eyes, class oppression and class contradiction are not personal problems, but the essence of a society.
Now that she is no longer surprised by the title of the song, the next thing for Queen Sisi is what she should do. If possible, the queen would most like to rush back to Budapest immediately so that the two sides of the war can stop. But the queen herself knew that this could not be. In the eyes of the rebels, those nobles killed their relatives and friends, probably to pay for the lives of those nobles. But for the aristocracy to pay for the poor is a big joke not only in Hungary, but in all of Europe.
With nothing she could do to stop the war from spreading, the queen had to think about who to turn to for help. At the moment, perhaps the biggest help is Queen Sissi's husband, the Austro-Hungarian Emperor Franz?? Joseph I. From any point of view, he was the one who could decide the fate of Austria-Hungary, as well as Hungary. But Queen Sisi hesitated, first of all she could be sure of Franz?? Joseph I's position on the Hungarian Revolution was probably only repression. The result of looking for this emperor is probably to make the emperor more determined to suppress to the end.
These political judgments were very quickly rolled in the queen's mind, and it was not long before she raised her head and said to the coachman, "Go back to your lodgings now." ”
"How many things are you going to bring back to Austria?" The maid hurriedly asked. As the closest person to Queen Sissi, she knew that there was a good chance that the queen would go back now with just a few things.
"No, I'm going to Cyprus. Now prepare to send an infinite telegram to Governor Wang Mingshan and the Marquis Grace. ”
A few hours later, Queen Sissi was surprised to learn that the Marquis Grace was in Florence. Not so much, the queen went straight to Florence to meet her new friend.
After the two met, the marquiss already had a straightforward expression of 'I already know, you don't have to talk nonsense'. After a few words of conversation, the marquiss said, "I don't recommend that you use any official capacity to see Mingshan, and I don't even recommend that you go to him." What they decide will never be done halfway. Although I have not met His Majesty the Emperor of Austria-Hungary, I believe that His Majesty the Emperor is probably the one who is more likely to change his mind. ”
"Does China have to let Austria-Hungary disintegrate?" Queen Sissi's mood was very anxious.
Grace smiled slightly, "I don't know about this." Although from now on, you may suspect that there is the intervention of the Minchao government behind this. But as far as I know, the Hungarians seem to have been hoping for independence from Austria. During the last War of Independence, China was under the Manchu dynasty. ”
Swear black is white.! Queen Sissi said angrily in her heart. However, she did not say it directly, because at this point she also hoped to make a final effort to solve the problem politically. The queen believed that once the government agreed to cooperate with Austria-Hungary, all problems would be resolved. If the government refused to stop, Austria would have fought a bitter war with Hungary. No, the two sides have probably begun to fight bitterly by this time.
As a banker, the Marquis de Grace is a good looker. Seeing that Queen Sissi still had persistence in her heart, she smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I hope you can see the facts clearly. With your intelligence, you will be able to understand that it is the inner nature of things that determines the development of things. Before I got the title of marquis, I was just a college student from an ordinary family. Nothing changed before or after I got the title of Marquis. The title of Marquis, however important it may seem to others, is only an appendage to me. Do you think that the Min Dynasty, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and Hungary all depended on you? ”
These words made Queen Sissi can't help but show a painful expression on her face, being proven to be unhelpful to her beloved things, and few things will be more painful than this. The queen's maid cursed in her heart, if it weren't for the house of the Marquis Grace, probably this loyal maid would have scolded her.
"Can you help me meet His Excellency Governor Wang Mingshan?" The queen asked after barely regaining her steady.
"Nope. I can't help with this. You should know why. Grace replied apologetically.
Queen Sisi didn't say much, of course she knew Grace's difficulties. Grace's everything comes from Wang Mingshan, and she will never make a move to interfere with Wang Mingshan's political work at such a time. With a sigh, Queen Sisi got up and took her leave.
Wang Mingshan did not think at this time that Queen Sisi or Marquis Grace had succeeded in the uprising of the Hungarian Communist Party in Budapest, which was as perfect as described in the textbook. The arrogant and defenseless ruling class, the people at the bottom who have been grudging for a long time, and the lower strata of the army who stand with the people at the bottom. At a large banquet in the arrogant upper echelons, the rebel forces wiped them out. The middle ranks of the government, the nobility, and the middle ranks of the army were also killed or arrested subsequently. The ruling center of the reactionary upper strata was wiped out in one pot.
Such a big victory did not make Wang Mingshan ecstatic, on the contrary, he couldn't help but sigh. The success of the Min Dynasty is already appalling, but everything in the Min Dynasty has a long preparation period, and there are various attempts and evaluations during the preparation period. Wang Mingshan has seen many old brothers who are extremely dissatisfied with this assessment, and Wang Mingshan has also seen many old brothers and later young people who are convinced by this preparation model after trying. Because there is no such thing in the world that can be achieved overnight, everyone is gradually accumulating experience in uncertainty and slowly understanding the unknown.
The Hungarian revolutionaries had revolutionary needs, but they had no revolutionary experience. More importantly, Wang Mingshan was unsure whether the Hungarian revolutionaries had the right view of the world. It is not terrible not to have revolutionary experience, the most terrible thing is that those who do not have a correct view of the world suddenly start with the right result. Wang Mingshan has seen many such people in the past few decades, and none of these people are not failures.
Thinking of this, Wang Mingshan suddenly turned his heart sideways. He found that he really wanted the revolution to be victorious, and if we look at it from Changyuan, Wang Mingshan's desire for the victory of the Hungarian revolution was just as incorrect as his previous criticism of others. If the Hungarian revolution can integrate theory with practice, closely unite the masses, and criticize and self-criticize, then it will be fine. If they can't, they're probably going to fail. And Wang Mingshan's mentality of wanting to win and being afraid of losing is the standard starting style of failure. Thinking of this, Wang Mingshan calmed down his emotions, and muttered in his mouth: Heaven and earth are not benevolent, and all things are used as dogs; The saints are unkind, and they use the people as dogs.
Because he knew that he didn't have the peaceful and upright mentality of Wei Zedudu, Wang Mingshan could only find something for himself to be more compulsively calm.
Finally setting his state in the position of 'heaven and earth are not benevolent', Wang Mingshan immediately sent a report to the embassy of Ottoman Turkey, asking the embassy there to ensure that the Ottoman Turkish Empire would not be involved in this war according to the previous plan. Hungary's situation was probably one of being surrounded by Austria-Hungary and Germany, Italy, and Russia, all of which had no particularly good relations with the Minchaos. If the Hungarian Revolution was to be supported, it would have to be made for Ottoman Turkey to choose to side with the Ottoman dynasty. In the past two decades, the Ottoman Turkish Empire had a good relationship with the Min Dynasty, and there was a lot of cooperation between the two sides, and the Min Dynasty also helped them a lot when the Ottoman Turkish Empire was in crisis. Just as Wang Mingshan and many old brothers seem to have a good relationship, but when it comes to critical moments, they often can't get their way, Wang Mingshan always feels that this seemingly friendly relationship makes him feel inexplicably uneasy. But there is only one way to go.
In addition to these efforts, 200 advisers from the Republic of China were on their way to Hungary. Once in Hungary, he could give the Hungarian Communist Party some political and military help.
"This is the first attempt by the Endowment for Democracy, and I must not have the mentality of a novice on the road. Be sure to have a novice mentality. In the midst of all kinds of uneasiness, Wang Mingshan repeatedly said to himself in his heart.
