Chapter 542: Yesterday Reappears (1)
In March 1902, the Hungarian envoy returned to Budapest from Bucharest, the capital of Romania. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ Although the envoy had already telegraphed Romania's refusal to armistice before he returned, the envoy was picked up by car as soon as he got off the train and taken to the National People's Congress.
The Hungarian Constitution draws on the constitution of the Republic of China, including the social system and the basic consensus of society. The people's congress is given a very high status in the constitution, and its power in actual implementation has been greatly weakened. As in the Republic of China, the people's congress had to ask about the administrative orders of the executive branch and the supporting measures, and undertook the obligation to explain them to the people.
Governor Wezedu gave Hungary some advice, and since the country was small and the population was not large, it was not necessarily a bad thing to add a certain amount of direct democracy. The NPC may not be able to decide on the major event of declaring war or armistice with the outside world, but it cannot but be known to the NPC.
"The Kingdom of Romania still demands that we cede Transylvania to them. No matter how much we prove that their demands are completely unreasonable, the Kingdom of Romania stands by their position. Refuse, and a truce with us. The special envoy was aggrieved and informed the deputies of the people's congress of his work experience.
"Why?" The deputies to the people's congress also could not understand. Over the past few years, the Hungarian Red Army has fought a number of battles, including five major foreign battles. Three of the five battles were against Austria and two against Russia. Russia did not declare war on Hungary, and of all the fighting objects, Romania was the only country that declared war on Hungary. But of all the opponents, the Hungarian people actually ignored Romania. Knowing that the rest of the country has stopped, and Romania is still unrelenting, it is no wonder that the deputies of the Hungarian People's Congress are puzzled by this.
It was not only the Hungarian deputies who were puzzled, but also the special envoy who gave the report to the NPC himself could not fully understand the Romanians' thoughts. Several possibilities exist, including that Russia is forcing the Romanians to hold on, or that the Romanians fear that an armistice will be signed in the event of an armistice, at which point Romania will not have the opportunity to claim Transylvania again.
The envoy finally came up with his own proposal, "Until now, Romania has been biting and dripping, they don't explain, and we can't guess." I suggest that they will not go to war with us, and we will remain in a state of non-fighting. Romania cannot go on like this forever, and we have invited European countries to mediate this matter, and we think it can be resolved in the future. β
The People's Congress first appeased the past, and at the internal meeting of the Hungarian Communist Party, some comrades of the Red Army expressed a certain interest in attacking Romania. The head of the advisory group almost scoffed at such a naΓ―ve idea, but the head of the advisory group had work experience, and he said very seriously, "Romania is not a problem, maybe it is a trap deliberately set by Russia." β
Open the map, Hungary at this time is a landlocked country. To the east and north is Austria, and to the south is the Ottoman Empire. It is bordered by Romania and Russia to the west. The immediate result of the fight against Romania was probably to confront Russia.
"It is imperative that Europe have its own view of this, especially of France and England. No matter how bad it is, it will have to get to the point where the whole of Europe knows about it. In the event of a Russian attack on us, the peoples of Europe will be able to realize that we are not provocateurs. β
The cadres of the Minchao had to be trained all the time, they were all young, and the cadres in Hungary were born in the days after the establishment of the iron-blooded policy, so these people could understand the impulses of the Hungarian comrades. After being besieged by almost all the surrounding countries, it is the most basic impulse to want to kill all sides. It is precisely because of this understanding that experienced comrades know that this is not advisable.
The advisory group has a very high status and influence in Hungary, and after analyzing the strategic environment, the Hungarian comrades can also understand that if they just scold and scold themselves behind closed doors, they will really have to pay a huge price that is meaningless if they really want to challenge the surrounding European powers. Comrades who felt that they should live their lives behind closed doors began to question, "Why do we want European countries to come out and administer justice, and why do those countries administer justice?" Isn't it okay for us to keep the boundaries and live our lives seriously? β
Propaganda Minister Zhou Shuren listened carefully to everyone's discussion, Hungary copied the latest model of the Republic of China, so the Minister of Propaganda became a member of the Standing Committee of the Central Committee, and even became a member of the Standing Committee. The 21-year-old felt a sense of intellectual superiority and could not help but speak, "The more Hungary stays out of the matter, the more a war will break out against Hungary." Hungary is located in Europe during the Warring States Period, and we can't let those jackals, tigers and leopards think that Hungary is a toothless rabbit. If Europe feels that Hungary is completely isolated from the European tide of hegemony, they will first tear Hungary apart. If Europe feels that Hungary is on the front lines of the struggle for hegemony, Hungary will also be torn apart......"
"According to you, neither left nor right, we can only go with the flow?" Some Hungarian comrades who lacked self-cultivation were very irritated by Zhou Shuren's words.
"Times have changed. Before the revolution, many comrades were still using muskets and even flintlock muskets. In the middle of the revolution, the comrades eliminated the old guns and began to use unified rifles. With the continuous victory of the revolutionary war, we had rifles, a large number of artillery guns, field artillery, and heavy artillery. Now there are still people who continue to discuss the combat mode based on the fire cap gun and flintlock gun, do you think that this is outdated? Zhou Shuren's tone was gentle, he had been very angry with those inappropriate words before, and he argued with reason, but reality transformed Zhou Shuren. Communication is by no means a cow that does not drink water and presses its head.
Comprehending Zhou Shuren's words, those impatient comrades stopped saying anything more for the time being. The foreign minister immediately interjected, "We will take on these tasks, and if you have any opinions, you can hand them over to the Standing Committee." That's when we talked about it. Trust us in the Foreign Affairs Committee. β
The Hungarian Foreign Minister did not speak in vain, and in the following days the Hungarian embassies in various countries visited the foreign ministries of the European powers in succession, asking them questions about the coordination of the war between Hungary and Romania. In addition, the Hungarian Communist Party contacted the Second International and asked it to help create public opinion in European newspapers. Criticize Romania for its evil actions of provoking war and destroying peace.
Diplomacy requires money, and even if the comrades of the Second International were able to provide the channels, the basic costs of driving them were indispensable. Fortunately, the Europa Bank of the Republic of China had branches in various countries, so the Hungarian side finally achieved its goal. It's just that after the bill was sent to Hungary, all the comrades grinned. Even if it is a conscience price, the Hungarian side pays very much.
If Hungary can still arouse public opinion in Europe through newspaper pages and the Europa Bank and the Democratic Foundation of the Republic of China, Romania will not even be able to cause the slightest movement in Europe, and Hungary will completely occupy public opinion.
When Queen Victoria of India returned to heaven in March 1902, the 61-year-old prince cried with joy. Joy returns to joy, and white joy must also be done. Perhaps the Queen of India knew that she was a hemophilia, so she worked hard to give birth to a baby, and even married her daughter all over Europe to harm other royal families. No matter what the royal families of other countries think about this in their hearts, everyone has to respect this old scourge on the surface. Leaders either send people to the UK for a state funeral or show their faces at a remote memorial service at the British embassy in their home country.
The French ambassador to Russia found the Russian undersecretary for foreign affairs in a black suit at a memorial service at the British Embassy in Russia to mourn the Indian Empress Victoria. Seeing the French ambassador coming, the Russian vice-minister smiled and said, "Your Excellency, you look very leisurely. β
"I can't help but laugh at the thought that I will probably be able to attend the memorial service of the Chinese emperor in a short time." The French ambassador replied with a smile.
The Russian Deputy Foreign Minister can understand what the French ambassador means, and no one in the whole of Europe likes China. China has killed the United States, which France has to support for inexplicably selling its liver and selling its liver, which has made France feel even more embarrassed. Just when the Russian undersecretary of foreign affairs was considering how to evaluate this issue, the French ambassador said with a smile: "I don't know if the Chinese will think that the whereabouts of their emperor's soul are unknown at that time." β
The Russian nation has been on the ice sheet for a long time and looks very indifferent. Despite the laughter rolling in his heart, the face of the Russian Deputy Foreign Minister was still very calm. The slot in the French ambassador's remark was that after the death of the Queen of India, a mocking article was written in the French newspapers, 'I wonder if the old lady will return to the arms of God after her death, or to the afterlife ruled by Lord Shiva'. Because the content of the ridicule was sharp and vicious, and it fully aroused the sense of exclusivity of the independent state church of the United Kingdom in Europe, it was widely circulated in Europe. It even caused discontent among British officials.
Because he had laughed many times about this slot, the French ambassador cut to the chase. "Your Excellency, why is Romania refusing to cease war with Hungary? Is it not possible for your country to prepare for war with Hungary? β
This question caused the Russian deputy minister to pull the French foreign minister to a secluded place, and the two men came together and said in a low tone that no one else could hear: "We can't understand the attitude of the Chinese, after all, the Hungarians are also distant relatives of the Chinese." β
The majority ethnic group of Hungary is the Magyars from Central Asia, and it is said that the Magyars also mixed the blood of the Rouran and the Huns. Anyway, they are all ethnic groups that have appeared in Chinese history books. The Magyars are the most unique in Europe in that their name pattern is the same as in East Asia, with the surname before the first name and the title after the title. Regardless of the difference in writing, 'His Majesty the Emperor Weeser' was written in the same way as Hungary in the Republic of China, and in the countries surrounding Hungary, it was 'His Majesty the Emperor?? Marsh?? Wei'.
The French ambassador knew that the knowledge of history had been spreading in Europe in recent years, and he immediately understood what was wrong. Russia itself claims to have obligations to its 'Slavic brothers' throughout the Balkans. Then if the Chinese declare that they are obligated to their distant relatives in distant Central Europe, Russia will not have a good time. The ambassador asked: "What does China say publicly?" β
"The problem is that China doesn't say anything." The Russian deputy governor lamented. What is said publicly, Russia can still bargain with the Minchao, and if the Minguo Dynasty does not say a word, Russia will not be able to judge. After all, the United States is in front of the jade, and Russia does not want to see how arrogant the Republic of China is.
"Then let Romania sign an armistice." The French ambassador found Russia's choice boring.
"Hungary killed 200,000 of us, and we will not let them go." The answer of the Russian deputy minister was very crisp. Even in the Crimean War, Russia did not suffer such heavy losses. At that time, the Russian and Bulgarian volunteers had a total of 250,000 'casualties'. The Hungarians had no affection for the Russians and killed with great ferocity. So Russia really lost 200,000 people in the two wars, and although most of the deaths were caused by disease and starvation, Russia did not hesitate to count it all on the Hungarians.
The French ambassador had been given what he wanted, so he stopped talking. Russia's steel production has grown rapidly in recent years. Naturally, France does not look down on Russian industry, because Russia has too many lessons to make up. France can build battleships, Russia now even has a problem designing a decent cruiser. But France knows very well how much self-confidence the Russians have in building self-propelled trains to build railways, relying on the explosion of steel. In addition to not daring to provoke the Minchao, Russia felt that it was very good and powerful. 200,000 Russian troops were slaughtered by the Hungarian mud legs, and Russia must find this field no matter what.
At this moment, diplomats from several other countries came over to see what the Russian Undersecretary of Foreign Affairs and the French Ambassador were talking about. The two of them went up to talk to the diplomats.
Europe was hit by the death of Empress Victoria of India, but the island of Cyprus in the Mediterranean was not. Wang Mingshan, the 'owner of the island', happily greeted his old friend Shen Xin at the dock, nearly fifty years ago, the governor of Wei Zedu left the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and went south. Shen Xin pulled his friend Wang Mingshan onto the boat, and from then on, the two embarked on the revolutionary road together on the boat of Wei Zedudu. Now that Shen Xin has stepped down from the position of president, it is Wang Mingshan's turn to welcome Shen Xin off the ship, and this association makes Wang Mingshan can't help but sigh a little.
When Shen Xin walked down the gangway and walked up to the dock, Wang Mingshan still wanted to step forward and say a few witticisms about the reunion that was ready. However, shaking hands with Shen Xinyi, Wang Mingshan forgot all about it. The circles under his eyes were hot, "I miss you so much!" No fancy words blurted out.
Listening to Wang Mingshan's words, Shen Xin's hand couldn't help but increase his strength, holding his old friend's hand tightly, Shen Xin replied, "Me too." We can finally sit down and talk casually as we did when we went to private school together. β
Honestly, I can't remember what it was like when I went to a private school fifty years ago. If there was any meeting for the era in that neighborhood, it was probably the crudely made model of the sun and the earth and moon that he first saw when he went to the school run by the governor of Wezedu. That was the first time that modern science touched Wang Mingshan. Of course, Wang Mingshan would never say such a bad thing to Shen Xin.
"I'll sit with you for as long as you want." Wang Mingshan said with a smile. Then he saw that Shen Xin's excitement was instantly replaced by ordinary self-control and calmness, and he was still a familiar old friend in front of him, but he was an old friend who was the vice chairman of the Central Military Commission and even the president of the country.
Nicosia, the capital of Cyprus, was already very much in shape at this time, especially the huge forest park in the center of the city. Two old friends take a walk here after a full meal, and the guards or secretaries are enough distance from the two. Wang Mingshan asked Shen Xin, "How is the domestic situation?" β
Shen Xin walked slowly with his hands behind his back, and that unmoved appearance made Wang Mingshan suddenly wonder if Shen Xin hadn't heard what he said at all. Just when Wang Mingshan hesitated for a while and was about to ask again, he heard Shen Xin say: "I don't know what the situation in China is now, I can't tell who is a friend and who is an enemy. β
"Hey, hey!" Wang Mingshan really couldn't figure out what medicine was sold in Shen Xin's gourd. Who is a friend and who is an enemy is the first question of the revolution. Wang Mingshan wanted to ask, Shen Xin, whose life is this going to change. Before he asked this, he heard Shen Xin say, "Although I can't figure out those questions, I have followed the governor all my life." β
Shen Xin's words made Wang Mingshan completely shut up. It's not boring to say so much, it's dangerous.
