Chapter 290: A Truce in Europe!

At the instigation of the British, the French were the first to agree to the treaty, and then, without the support of the Russian Empire, the Kingdom of Sweden and the French Queen, the Queen of Austria had to stop the act of war!

As for those who follow the trend of Bavaria, the Kingdom of Sardinia, the Kingdom of Sicily and other small European countries, there is naturally a cry for long live peace!

They also don't want to continue this war that lasts for years, and they don't get any benefit except for the dead and the loss of money!

The contract signed by the two sides is very ironic, and everything is almost back to the pre-war state!

Austria did not recover Silesia, which was Frederick's largest source of finance!

But Saxony regained its independence, and the first constituent state of the Holy Roman Empire to fall at the beginning of the war finally got rid of Frederick's scraping laws......

This large-scale European war involved almost the whole world, not only the European battlefield was turned upside down, but the French and the British fought each other in the colonies of the world for several years, and ended in a complete victory for the British......

Even in the early days of the war, in order to prevent the enemy from being attacked on the back, the Russian Empire also instigated the Dzungar Khan kings Dawazi and Amur Sana in Asia to launch a rebellion, which involved most of the Manchu emperor's troops and energy!

With the signing of the Peace Treaty of Paris, the European battlefield was completely calmed down, and those small countries that participated in the war were nothing, they just lost some money and died some soldiers, anyway, they did not send their main forces, but only symbolically supported a mercenary force!

The biggest winners of this war are undoubtedly the British!

France was forced to cede the entire American colonies to Britain in the Treaty of Paris and withdrew from all of India, retaining only 5 towns, and Britain became the hegemon of the overseas colonies, moving towards the legend of an empire on which the sun never sets.

On the other hand, the African colonies, due to their proximity to the French mainland and the lack of oil and water, were not swallowed by the British, but the French colonies in Africa also shrank a lot......

The Peace of Paris became one of the most humiliating events of the French monarchy. France's diplomatic strategy failed and its prestige plummeted. The war also caused Louis XV to lose the support of the people. And after his death, he became one of the most unpopular kings of France. indirectly laid the groundwork for the outbreak of the French Revolution.

The fuse of the war, the Kingdom of Austria, did not lose its land, but this defeat, Maria Theresia developed strong hostility towards the Russian Empire and Frederick II!

The Russian Tsar's defection in the latter part of the war drew criticism from Austria and France, but it won the friendship of Prussia and planted a 'revolutionary friendship' for the future cooperation in the partition of Poland.

It's just that Peter III, who thought he had won the victory, was poisoned by his wife Catherine II and the great nobles of the Russian Empire shortly after returning home after the war!

Peter III's stupidity made the great nobles of the Russian Empire hate it, and they would rather raise a woman than kill this idiot's brainless fan!

Of course, even if Peter III's death is unknown, Frederick the Great and later Catherine II also cooperated very happily, and Frederick did not have any hostility at all because the vicious woman in Russia killed his little fan!

Frederick was able to retain Silesia because of Russia's defection to Prussia in the latter part of the war, earning him the title of "military genius" and "king". Prussia, which had risen since Friedrich Wilhelm I, was by this time the fifth great power in Europe. However, the great war also left the Kingdom of Prussia in ruins, but Frederick's devotion to rebuilding peace and the economy after the war stabilized Prussia's position.

I have to say that the defection of the Russian Empire greatly advanced the time of the armistice in Europe, otherwise, with Frederick's ability, if he wanted to destroy Prussia, he would at least have to smash the army of more than 140,000 points!

This news is really not good news for Zhao Dutian, because he found a very depressing problem, the task of unifying South America that he obtained before refers not only to annexing the Spanish colonies, but also to South America and a big Brazil!

The Kingdom of Portugal, the suzerainty of Brazil, is nothing, but who doesn't know that the Kingdom of Portugal in this era is a powerful British brother!

When Zhao Dutian learned the news of the armistice in Europe, he also learned that after Britain ended its colonial war with France, all the vacated troops were shipped to the Americas......

Moreover, the Portuguese colonies in Brazil landed more British troops than the North American colonies!

These British troops were not comparable to the regular armies that were improvised in the Spanish colonies and used to suppress the mob, they were the elite of the British Army that fought all over the world!

With the local tyrant style of the British, the British troops who landed must be equipped with the most advanced weapons and equipment in Europe, and the performance of the artillery will never be weaker than that of the Han Empire, and the use of expensive flowering shells will definitely be used!

The bad news is that the Portuguese are fully mobilized in Brazil and are eyeing the Spanish colonies, waiting to join forces with the British Army and do something......

Therefore, after Zhao Dutian got the news, he convened a general meeting of the Imperial Staff the next day to discuss the victory rate of an all-out war with the British Empire, and the result was very unsatisfactory......

Although Britain has experienced the Great War in Europe and is in a relatively weak period, the rich Indian colonies will inevitably inject huge wealth into Britain, and the Iroquois Indian Alliance, the largest in North America, has become a staunch combat partner of the British......

The Iroquois are not very effective in combat, but they can mobilize a large number of Indian warriors!

The Indians are about the same as all the soldiers!

If you add the weapons of the tyrants to Britain and fully armed......

The Han Empire may not lose, but the war will definitely be prolonged indefinitely, and finally the fragile economic system of the Han Empire will be brought down!

The war between the Han Empire and the British was inevitably different from that of the Spaniards, as long as the British had the support of coastal port cities in the Americas, they could transport mercenaries of all colors from colonies all over the world, and the human resources could completely destroy the Spaniards!

Coupled with the productivity of British factories, how long the British can fight is no longer a question of whether they will win the war, but how long Britain's finances can support it......

Compared with finance, the Han Empire is obviously inferior to the empire on which the sun never sets, which is colonized all over the world!
