Embassies of London, France and the Roman Empire. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ。 ybdu。

In a conference room at the embassy, several people were gathering to discuss things. The room was filled with the smell of coffee and cigar smoke.

"No, no, no, this is impossible, it is impossible for Prussia to attack Austria for the sake of Turkey. Your Majesty the Emperor, Austria is, after all, a German country, and a brother to the people of Prussia and the German states. If Prussia had fought Austria for the sake of a unified country, it would have been understandable, but if it had been to help the Turks...... This is completely impossible, the nationalists in Prussia will be outraged, maybe a revolution will break out! ”

Bismarck, the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Prussia, was shaking his head and talking, and today was the day of the London Peace Conference, but the small meetings within the British and French camps did not stop. Now a very difficult problem for Napoleon III arose, that is, Prussia was unwilling to attack Austria for the sake of the Turks, especially after Austria had agreed to withdraw from the German Confederation - Prussia had won without a fight, so why was there any need to fight Austria?

Bismarck gently turned the coffee cup in his hand and pondered: "Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about Austria, even if they occupy Bosnia and Herzegovina, Mendenegro and Bulgaria will not pose any threat to us. You wouldn't really believe that Austria would go and act as cannon fodder for Britain against France, would you? They have no interest in doing so. So I think that once Austria's demands for the Balkans are met, they will no longer be allied with Great Britain, and Austria is a target to be wooed. You might wish to consider the possibility of co-opting Austria at the expense of Turkey. If Austria becomes our friend. The British Empire was defeated without a fight! ”

Napoleon III said coldly: "But France is obliged to protect the Turkish Empire." ”

Bismarck said lightly: "Your Majesty the Emperor." When Napoleon I marched on Moscow. The Turkish Empire did not side with France. I don't think there's any need for you to maintain this weakened empire right now...... And Bosnia and Herzegovina, Mendenegoro and Bulgaria originally belonged to us white Europeans, not the Turkic people of Asia. ”

It's the Yellow Peril again! Napoleon III thought to himself that the Yellow Peril theory had a huge impact on public opinion in Prussia. It seems that they are not willing to go to war with Austria for Turkey. However, without Prussia's 600,000 troops, it would have been difficult for the French Army to defeat Austria alone, and besides, Austria would most likely join Russia in attacking Turkey. But it's also a good idea to woo Austria...... A powerful Austria is also a tool to contain Prussia!

He turned his gaze to Wu Chunqiu on the side. "Ambassador Wu, what does His Majesty of China think about this issue?"

"The Great Tomorrow is in agreement with Your Majesty on this issue." Wu Chunqiu replied with a smile. However, the Great Tomorrow believes that it is clearly worth it if Turkey can avoid a war at a slight cost. Their losses in the Balkans, in the future can be compensated elsewhere. ”

Of course, Zhu Jishi knew that a world war was inevitable, but now he was not sure of victory. After all, he has ruled China for less than two decades, and although the country is developing rapidly, it is true that it has not yet become a world leader after a world war. More importantly, he knew that the victory in the North American War was actually a bit reluctant. If there is a world war with Britain now. He could not guarantee that the United States of America would not make a big comeback with the support of the British! If such a situation were to occur, it would be difficult for the Kingdom of California and the Mexican Empire to preserve.

"So. What about the Mexican Empire? Napoleon III asked the Prime Minister of Mexico, Juárez, that he knew that the Indian had a great influence on the political situation in Mexico, while his cousin was preoccupied with his son's country, the Kingdom of California.

Huarez said with a smile: "Your Majesty the Emperor, peace in North America has not yet been finally reached. Moreover, the Mexican army was already preparing to attack Chile by sea to accompany the land offensive of the new Japan. Once we succeed in Chile, Her Majesty will hold high the Pan-Indian banner and lead the Mexican army into South America. I suppose that the territory of one continent is far more valuable than two or three small countries in the Balkans, right? ”

The war on the South American side was indeed ready to fly, and more than 70,000 Japanese troops were ready in the Patagonian highlands. And Paraguayan President López Jr. also mobilized 50000 troops. The Mexicans, on the other hand, have moved the main force of their navy to the Pacific Ocean, ready to transport their land forces to the Atacama Desert at any time!

Napoleon III nodded, "In that case, then...... Let Turkey keep Bulgaria. ”

……

"Prussia will not fight, any war in the world is driven by interests, what benefits can they gain from this war against Austria?"

10 Downing Street. The atmosphere in the conference room was very relaxed, with dignitaries from the British Empire, the Austrian Empire, the Russian Empire, and the United States of America gathered together. It was British Prime Minister Palmerston who was speaking, and although he did not know the decision of Wilhelm I and Bismarck, he could guess the reaction of Prussia even if he guessed.

Why are they fighting? What's the picture? Can Austria build Greater Germany? Napoleon III would certainly not have agreed! In that case, why should they have trouble with Austria?

"But Napoleon III would not agree to Austria's annexation of all the lands of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Mendi, Negoro and Bulgaria." Count Andráhi also seems to have guessed Napoleon III's final decision. For a diplomat of his calibre, there is really nothing he could not have imagined in European diplomacy. "Now the question is when to start!"

He glanced at Russian Foreign Minister Gorchakov again. The latter immediately laughed and said: "500,000 Russian troops are completely ready!" The Black Sea Fleet has also been rebuilt, and the Russian army can go south at any time! Gorchakov suddenly smiled coldly again, "However, the public order to suspend the general mobilization will be issued within a week of the signing of the Prussian Peace Treaty." ”

The Russian army was mobilized in the name of supporting Austria against Prussia, if the P-Austrian Peace Treaty was concluded. Austria voluntarily withdrew from the German Confederation, and Russia naturally had no reason to prepare for war...... Unless they intend to attack Turkey!

Gorchakov continued: "Actually, the order to really disarm will be given next spring, if war has not broken out by then." ”

It was the winter of the end of 1863, and Siberia and Central Asia were covered in ice. The military power of the Ming Empire in Central Asia and Siberia could not move at all! And Russia and Austria already have a million troops ready! They were nominally intended to be directed against Prussia, but in reality they were intended to be used against the Turkish Empire. And the Turkish Empire has not yet recovered from the last war, their new army of less than 200,000 is not at all a match for the Russian-Austrian coalition army 5 times great!

"War will definitely break out!" "But what we have to think about now is how to end the war and how to avoid a break with France," said Count Andráchy with certainty. ”

France can't be beaten, it's really bigger, and Prussia may not stay out of it. As long as Napoleon III allowed Prussia to annex Austria and Bohemia, the Austrian Empire was in big trouble. So Count Andrách was now moving between France, Prussia, Russia, and England in order to gain the best interests of the Austrian Empire. In fact, during this time, he also met with the French Foreign Minister, Duke Vallewski! As Viscount Palmerston himself said, there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests!

Of course, Viscount Palmerston did not know what Count Andráhi was thinking, and he smiled and waved his hand, "No, it will not be broken. He looked at Abraham. Lincoln, said, "Because the North American War is not over yet!" And another South American war is about to take place. The current Napoleon is busier than his uncle. (To be continued.) )
