Chapter 910: Spanish Coup

Francisco I, husband of the current Queen Isabella II of Spain. He was Prince Francisco of Spain. Morality. Paula with his wife of Naples and Princess Luisa of Sicily. Carlotta's second son. Grandson of King Carlos IV of Spain. As the Queen's husband, Francisco I was nothing more than an ornament and had no power, much to the displeasure of Francesco I.

In addition, Queen Isabella II is another* monarch, and she does not know how many handsome lovers she has. Francisco I's head was already covered with green hats. Of course, the reason why Queen Isabella II is like this is inseparable from Francisco I herself. Francisco I was a homosexual and barren, which inevitably drove the lonely Queen Isabella II.

In addition, Francisco I was a white supremacist racist who was concerned about the close relationship between the Kingdom of Spain and the Chinese Empire. Very dissatisfied. On more than one occasion, Francisco I proposed to Isabella II to distance himself from the Chinese Empire and turn to the Western world led by England. It's just that this was not agreed by Isabella II. Over time, Francisco I had the idea of replacing Isabella II.

Tang Dynasty. Prince Carlos is the uncle of Queen Isabella II. He was the second grown son of King Carlos IV of Spain. Originally, women were not allowed to inherit the throne in Spain. However, Don. Prince Carlos' brother, Fernando VII, repealed the Salic succession law, allowing royal women and their descendants to succeed to the throne. And eventually passed to his daughter Isabella II, causing Carlos to be dissatisfied. In Spain, there were also some political figures who supported Tang. Carlos News. These people are called the Carlos Party.

However, the full power of the Kingdom of Spain is now almost entirely in the hands of the ministers who are close to the Chinese Empire, and the Prime Minister, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, the Minister of the Navy, and the Minister of War are all close to the Chinese Empire. In the army and navy of the Kingdom of Spain, the vast majority of generals. It had a close relationship with the Chinese Empire. Many middle- and low-ranking officers have received training from the Chinese Empire. The influence of the Chinese Empire, so to speak. It has penetrated every aspect of the Kingdom of Spain.

Tang Dynasty. Prince Carlos, who has always wanted to overthrow the rule of Queen Isabella II. He claimed to be King Carlos V. It's just that the power of the kingdom is now firmly in the hands of Queen Isabella II. There was nothing he could do about it.

Right now. The situation in the world has changed dramatically. The Asia-Europe military alliance and the North Atlantic military alliance are pitted against each other. As an important member of the Asia-Europe Military Alliance, the Kingdom of Spain is at the forefront. In the event of war, the Kingdom of Spain would inevitably be attacked by powerful enemies. This makes Don. Prince Carlos lashed out even more at Queen Isabella II's policies, believing that he was leading the Kingdom of Spain into the abyss. However, the victory in the last North American war allowed the Kingdom of Spain to acquire a land of more than 700,000 square kilometers in the southern United States. This made Queen Isabella II's prestige reach an extremely high level in the country. The perception of the Spaniards is also beginning to change. They seem to think. foreign wars, which favored the rise of the Kingdom of Spain. In such a situation. Tang Dynasty. Prince Carlos wanted to overthrow Queen Isabella II, which was even more unlikely.

On February 22, 1851, in the small coastal city of Gijón in the northwestern part of the Kingdom of Spain, Don. Prince Carlos arrived here in secret. At the same time, the French Foreign Secretary, Count Valewski, and the British Foreign Secretary, the Earl of Granville, also arrived here in secret. Although the military strength of the Kingdom of Spain has been greatly improved, there are still great loopholes in its defense. Ships of the British and French navies often cruised in the northwestern seas of the Kingdom of Spain. This time, Count Wallewski and Count Granville landed in Gijón from a British warship in a dinghy.

"Your Royal Highness, it's such a pleasure to meet you." In a secret room of a hotel by the sea, Count Granville and Count Valewski met Don. Prince Carlos.

"Your Excellency, two counts, welcome to the beautiful Kingdom of Spain!" Tang Dynasty. Prince Carlos had a smile on his face. He knew that if he wanted to overthrow Queen Isabella II, it would be impossible on his own, and only with the strength of Britain and France.

"Yes, Your Highness, I fully agree that the Kingdom of Spain is a beautiful country. However, the policies now pursued by the Kingdom of Spain would drag the country into the abyss of war. In this case, the beautiful kingdom of Spain may be destroyed in the flames of war. Count Valewski said with a look of regret. If there was a war, France would definitely attack the Kingdom of Spain.

"Humph! This qiē is all a good thing done by the* of Isabella II. She didn't know what was going on, she was completely fascinated by the yellow-skinned monkeys. Spain is a white country, how can it hook up with those lowly yellow people? If I can become the king of the Kingdom of Spain, I will definitely ask the Kingdom of Spain to withdraw from the Asia-Europe Military Alliance and join the North Atlantic Military Alliance. "Don. Prince Carlos said firmly. He knew that only by directly demonstrating his attitude would England and France spare no effort to support him as king of the Kingdom of Spain.

Sure enough, Don. Prince Carlos's words made both Count Granville and Count Valewski happy. With the opening of the Suez Canal, the geographical location of the Kingdom of Spain has become increasingly important. The Kingdom of Spain, which holds the Strait of Gibraltar, would be cut off from east to west if the Strait was blocked. If the Kingdom of Spain could join the North Atlantic Military Alliance, it would be able to prevent the further penetration of the Chinese Empire into Europe.

"Your Royal Highness, the British Empire supports His Highness as the new King of the Kingdom of Spain. Only when His Royal Highness becomes the king of the Kingdom of Spain, the entire Kingdom of Spain, will be able to get rid of the control of the Chinese Empire. Said the Earl of Granville.

"The French Empire also supports His Royal Highness!" Count Valewski also said. If Don. If the coup d'état of Prince Carlos is successful, and the Kingdom of Spain joins the North Atlantic Military Alliance, then France will be able to remove the enemy in one direction. You can even get support. This will be very advantageous as more and more countries join the Eurasian military alliance.

"Great! With the support of Britain and France, I think I will be able to succeed. "Don. Prince Carlos said.

Next, the three began to discuss a specific coup plan. Francesco I, husband of Queen Isabella II of Spain, will support Don. Prince Carlos. It's just that he doesn't have much power. As a deal, Don. When Prince Carlos becomes King of the Kingdom of Spain, he will make Francisco I Prince and Prime Minister of Spain.

The UK said that once the Don. Prince Carlos staged a coup d'état, and the British Royal Navy was to enter the Atlantic Ocean to prevent the naval forces of the Chinese Empire from interfering in the internal affairs of the Kingdom of Spain. Prince Carlos' coup d'état buys time. The French side said that if the Don. If Prince Carlos's coup d'état in Madrid had not been successful, then they would have supported Don. Prince Carlos establishes a new government in northern Spain. When the time comes, the French* army will go directly into the Kingdom of Spain to help the Don. Prince Carlos.

The statements of Britain and France made Don. Prince Carlos took a reassuring pill. Even if the coup d'état in Madrid did not succeed, there was a safe way out.

After returning to Madrid, Don. Prince Carlos and Francisco I immediately went into action.

At the same time, the intelligence officers of the Military Intelligence Bureau of the Chinese Empire in the Kingdom of Spain, as well as the Imperial Embassy in the Kingdom of Spain, had been closely monitoring the Tang Dynasty. Prince Carlos and Francisco I. of that Don. When Prince Carlos secretly went to Gijón, the intelligence agents of the Imperial* Military Intelligence Agency had already learned about it. Although I don't know Don. Who Prince Carlos met with and what he talked about. However, it is easy to conclude from speculation that this must have been a conspiracy against the Spanish regime.

Fang Minghong, the ambassador of the Chinese Empire to the Kingdom of Spain, immediately made an appointment to meet with the Duke of Valencia, the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Spain, and the Minister of Foreign Affairs. Morality. Salamanca, to inform the Spanish side of the situation.

Duke of Valencia and Jose. Morality. Salamanca did not dare to slack off, on the one hand, to inform Queen Isabella II, and on the other hand, to contact the Minister of War, Simon. Duke Maria and Lord of the Admiralty, Duke Aguilera. Regardless of Don. Whether Prince Carlos will carry out a coup d'état, as long as the army is in their hands, no coup d'état will succeed. The army is the cornerstone of a country's stability.

Queen Isabella II of Spain was also furious, but she could not give Francisco I and Don a message without evidence. Prince Carlos was convicted. Her Majesty the Queen instructed the Duke of Valencia to be prepared to suppress the coup d'état as soon as possible and capture Francisco I and Don. Prince Carlos, can't make a bigger mess.

On February 26, 1851, in the barracks of the Royal Spanish Army, located on the outskirts of Madrid, an infantry brigade of the Royal Spanish Army, led by officers, walked out of the barracks and marched towards Madrid. This division was created by Don. Prince Carlos's people are controlled zhì. (To be continued......)
