Chapter 375: Unwilling (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
"Your Majesty, the Germans are really a bit deceitful and too deceitful!" Mario? Webb in von? Kidren? After Washitt left the palace, he was somewhat angry at Franz? Joseph I said. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
It is really indignant that the German side first made peace with Russia and then gave them a little benefit at will, as if it were sending Hanako.
Franz? The smile on Joseph I's face disappeared cleanly. His pleasant face just now was simply pretended. As an emperor of an empire, even if he is old, he can't tolerate others treating him like this.
"I was also very angry. Only, Your Excellency, what do you think we can do now? And the Germans tore their faces? Or, like the Italians, directly betray Germany and go to war with them? "Franz? Joseph I asked rhetorically.
Suddenly, Mario? Webb was speechless. He naturally knew that Austria-Hungary would never be able to tear its face with Germany. As for the betrayal of Germany, it is impossible to talk about it. Everyone can see that the Allies have the advantage in this war. Winning the final victory doesn't seem to be a problem. If, at this time, he betrayed the German Empire and joined the Entente, it would undoubtedly be a fool's doing.
If you betray the German Empire, join the Entente, and defeat Germany, then that's fine. But if Germany is not defeated in that case, it will be a self-defeating death. Franz? Joseph I and Mario? Weber was well aware of the strength of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Although Austria-Hungary also had two or three million troops. But if it really starts, it is estimated that Germany only needs to send two or three corps to defeat them.
Although, in the previous battles to defeat the Russian Southwestern Front, the Austro-Hungarian Army also contributed a huge force. But they all knew how much Austria-Hungary had contributed to this. It can be said that the reason why the Russian Southwestern Front was able to defeat the Russian Army at the beginning was that the German 8th Army Corps played a crucial role. Without the German 8th Army, Austria-Hungary would have had only the life of being defeated. No, then they launched another offensive in an attempt to gnaw a piece of fat on the Russians when they were at their weakest. As a result, it was defeated and the losses were not small.
"Your Excellency, the Germans would do this, no wonder they, our own strength is too weak! In other words, if we were much stronger than the Germans, we could simply ignore the feelings of the Germans. In this world, after all, the law of the jungle is still the strong! "Franz? Joseph I said helplessly. The essence of this world is that the law of the jungle is the strong.
Mario? Webb nodded: "Your Majesty, I see. Judging by the current situation, the Allies have a better chance of winning this war. So, by staying in the Allies, we will be able to gain more benefits. Also, if we can take the Balkans in this war, and at the same time we can cut a piece of meat from the Italians, that's not bad. Two billion marks of war reparations are not a small amount. ”
People are often like this, and if you think about it differently, you can figure out a lot of problems. The current Austro-Hungarian Empire is undoubtedly like this.
German Foreign Minister von ? Kidren? Vasit was in Vienna and did not stay long. Met Franz? After Joseph I, he met with Archduke Friedrich and Marshal Baron Herzendorf, respectively. The two Austrian commanders-in-chief also expressed their understanding of Germany's approach to Russia. After all, they all knew that such a change in Russia was entirely planned by the Germans, and Austria-Hungary did not contribute at all to the war against Russia. Of course, they paid a lot of casualties for this. But that's simply because the Austrian army is too weak. If they are strong, perhaps Germany will have to consider their attitude and let them get a piece of the pie.
Feng? Kidren? Vahit, it seems, selectively forgot to visit Crown Prince Karl. As the crown prince of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Karl's status was undoubtedly very high. Reasonable, Feng? Kidren? Vahit should also visit. But, von? Kidren? The next day, Vahit went straight back to Germany, which made everyone's jaws drop.
"Damn the Germans, they didn't take me seriously at all!" After the departure of the German Foreign Minister, Crown Prince Karl was in his palace and was furious. The Germans' actions undoubtedly gave him a slap in the face, making him, the crown prince, not know where to put his face.
Feng? Kidren? Vahit's doing this, of course, was deliberate. On the one hand, Germany's intelligence services knew very well that Crown Prince Karl was fanning the flames and destroying relations between the German Empire and Austria-Hungary. On the other hand, when Germany and Austria jointly dealt with the Russian army, Crown Prince Karl also targeted Qin Tian and Feng Tian several times? Kidren? Vahit, this time, took this opportunity to humiliate him severely.
In Franz? As Joseph I grew older, Crown Prince Karl's influence in the Austro-Hungarian Empire was also increasing. After all, and Franz? Compared to Joseph I, Crown Prince Karl was not the material of a wise man. But who made Franz? Is Joseph I not far from seeing God? Isn't the future empire all Crown Prince Karl's? This made the nobles and elites of the Austro-Hungarian Empire naturally more willing to maintain good relations with Crown Prince Karl.
However, after the German Foreign Minister's refusal to give Crown Prince Karl face, many people quickly realized that the German side was dissatisfied with Crown Prince Karl. Although, in the internal affairs of Austria-Hungary, it was not Germany's turn to interfere. However, once Germany wins the war, it will undoubtedly become a world hegemon. Even though Crown Prince Karl succeeded to the throne and became the monarch of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. However, if he offends the world hegemon, even if Crown Prince Karl becomes the emperor, he will inevitably be greatly suppressed.
This also made many people who originally planned to get closer to Crown Prince Karl can't help but stop, planning to wait and see if there will be any variables next.
When Crown Prince Karl learned about this situation, he was naturally so angry that he was about to vomit blood. In addition, Germany was very unwilling to annex a large part of Russian territory. In his opinion, those territories should have been a share of Austria-Hungary.
