Louis only threw out the demands of Austria and Prussia, in fact, Louis asked Baron Ottoman to deliberately sell a favor between the two parties and reveal the news of the other party to the other party, so the Austrian and Prussian sides also had a slight understanding of their respective demands.

Originally, Louis thought that after communication between the two sides, most of the questions raised would be directly agreed to be directly agreed, and a small amount of others would be modified, but even if he sold his face, it would only be modified a small amount. And he himself, by presiding over and mediating this Prague Peace Conference, will surely make a name for himself and become the leader of Europe.

Unexpectedly, after listening to his announcement, representatives of both Austria and Prussia raised fierce objections.

"This can't be!!"

On the Austrian side, the grumpy Grand Duke Karl Ludwig, who had completely forgotten what his emperor's brother had given to him, and did not understand the fact that the French emperor was actually helping them more in Austria, directly began to scold: "The arrogant Prussians are too arrogant, and it is a big deal to break the net." Bohemia who still wants to occupy us, and won't even give me my brother who I begged for a long time, how can I give you an outsider! Also, the French emperor, which side are you helping? Then Prussia made such an unreasonable demand, and you didn't even help to refuse. Thanks to my emperor's brother, he entertained you well the year before last and gave you several Hungarian beauties. ”

The Austrian deputy envoy, Baron Brooke, hurriedly stopped him, looked at Louis with a blue face, and apologized again and again. However, Archduke Carl Ludwig had a violent temperament, and he was a noble duke, and he was suppressed by his brother Franz Josef in Vienna, this time out of Vienna, even in Prague, a city that had been occupied by the Prussian army, he was still arrogant and domineering, and he did not take Brooke, who was just a little baron, in his eyes, and pushed Brooke to a stagger, and said proudly: "Today I am the envoy in charge of the negotiations of the Austrian Empire, and I have the final say in everything!" Our Austrian demands are to which you, Prussia, must agree. Otherwise...... Otherwise, we will not transfer Holstein to you, nor will we give up meddling in the German Confederation! ”

Louis's face was so ugly that he almost dripped, he didn't expect that the stupid Austrian emperor would send a brother who was even more stupid than him to negotiate, wasn't it pure troublemaking. He simply closed his mouth and eyes.

And the Prussian negotiator, Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Bismarck, looked ugly and reminded with some euphemism: "Archduke Karl Ludwig, I must tell you that if you Austria do not want to negotiate, maybe our Prussian army has already attacked the city of Vienna by now!" ”

Prince William also sneered directly: "This Grand Duke, don't make trouble here!" If you really don't want to negotiate, then let's give up this peace talk and see you on the battlefield! Our 300,000 troops are still in Moldavia, less than three days from Vienna and Budapest in Hungary. ”

"You!" Archduke Carl Ludwig, though hot-tempered, was not too stupid, and as soon as he heard the other party's threat not to negotiate, he immediately thought of his brother's threat, so he immediately stopped talking nonsense, just glared at Prince William fiercely, and then turned his head to the deputy envoy Baron Brooke, with an expression of shaking his hand to you to deal with.

Baron Brooke hurriedly smiled and said, "I'm sorry, our Grand Duke hasn't slept well recently, and his mood is a little irritable. To get back to the point, since it is a peace talk, we still have to talk about it, and since it is a talk, we naturally have to bargain. In addition, the premise of peace talks and peace talks is that peace must be made first, not only for an armistice, for peace, but also for peace between the two sides. ”

Baron Brooke, worthy of being the Minister of Foreign Affairs, put everyone in one sentence, and after seeing that the envoys and observers of the various countries present agreed with his words, Brooke took the opportunity to say the conditions of his Austrian side: "The first request that Austria dissolve the German Confederation and that the Austrian Empire can promise not to interfere in the internal affairs of Germany in the future, we can agree to it!" But in the second and third articles, Prussia wanted to annex so many German states, and even wanted to annex Bohemia, which we in Austria opposed. Especially Hanover, Saxony, we in Austria believe that their own choice should be respected!

And Prague and Bohemia, whether Upper Bohemia, Middle Bohemia, Moldavia, etc., are the territory of our Austrian Empire, and will never be occupied by any country, including you Prussia! This is an act of naked aggression on your part, and in the face of this aggression I am sure that all of us in the Austrian Empire will not give in! Even if we lose this war, we still have more than 30 million people of the Austrian Empire, and in less than a week, we will be able to raise an army of 500,000! In addition to this, I am sure that the rest of our Austrian allies in Europe will not sit idly by, Your Majesty the Emperor of France, right? ”

Louis was brought up by him, but he couldn't have a seizure, so he could only nod.

And Bismarck did not expect that Austria would have such a sharp-tongued diplomat as Brooke, in fact, even Bismarck had to admit that they Prussia was an invasion, and they wanted to start a war for the purpose of annexing the entire German Confederation. Moreover, it was originally a sneak attack, and it was somewhat shameless to go to war without declaring it.

Therefore, it is difficult for him to refute. He could only argue from another angle: "Mr. Brooke, it is excellent that we both agree on the first point. Therefore, on behalf of us, Prussia, I can also promise that we can declare an armistice and withdraw our troops regardless of the final outcome of the peace talks! And this can be an expression of our sincerity, our affection for the Austrian Empire, and, in addition, respect for His Majesty the Emperor of France!

As for the second point of our request, because there are many German principalities involved, I don't think we should make decisions for them, after all, neither the Kingdom of Prussia nor the Austrian Empire are their suzerainty, nor are they the domain of both, therefore, they have enough autonomy, and everything is left to their own decisions! How is it? ”

Bismarck's words, Baron Brooke really found it difficult to refuse. As soon as he refused, he offended the whole German state, so he could only nod his head in agreement: "Monsieur Bismarck is right! We think it's the best fit! Previously, it was only because many of the principalities of the German Confederation had always revered us as the head of Austria, so they did not bother to mention it. They can see the advantages and interests of following our Austrian Empire, and I will not say much about that. ”

Seeing Baron Brooke say this, Archduke Carl Ludwig, who had just quieted down next to him, made trouble again, and he was dissatisfied: "Brooke, you bastard, why did you agree to let those little principalities choose who to follow?" Are you going to cut us off the territory of the Holy Roman Empire? Be careful to go back to Vienna and I'll let you ......."

Baron Brooke did not wait for this troublesome ancestor to finish speaking, he covered his mouth, and seeing that Archduke Carl Ludwig was still unrelenting, in desperation, Baron Brooke waved his hand directly, and asked two Austrian guards to forcibly escort Archduke Carl Ludwig directly by holding his mouth.

If you don't take tough measures, I'm afraid that everyone present will be offended by this second ancestor. Baron Brooke had already seen the King of Bavaria, Maximilian II and others, and their faces were extremely ugly. You know, even if the emperor of the Austrian Empire comes, he does not dare to say that they are small principalities, that these states are the territory of Austria, even if a principality like Saxony completely falls to the Austrian Empire, it is better to maintain superficial respect.

Seeing that Baron Brooke was able to make a mistake and deal with it decisively, Bismarck had some appreciation, but appreciation was appreciation, and he would not be soft-hearted.
