Chapter 140: Archduke Albrecht
Before the secretary could respond, Felix. Schwarzenberg shook his head and said to himself.
"No, they won't!"
Despite being a military and politician. Schwarzenberg despised Prince Metternich and his policies, who had fled London, but he habitually used the principles of survival established by Metternich at the Congress of Vienna to think about the foreign policy of the continent.
Felix. Schwarzenberg crumpled the telegram sent by Baron Hubernard from France and threw it to the ground, with a disdainful expression on his face, and said with unwavering certainty: "Bonaparte's wolf cub will trample on the delimitation of the territory at the Congress of Vienna!" If they recognized the boundaries of the Congress of Vienna, they would undoubtedly be discarding the legitimacy of the Bonapartes. As soon as they refused to recognize the delimitation of the territory of 1815, we would be justified in intervening with the Kingdom of Britain and the Russian Empire in the Austrian Empire. ”
In Felix. In the eyes of Chancellor Schwarzenberg, the recognition of the Vienna Conference was the bottom line for the entire European monarchies.
If the French Republic refuses to recognize the division of territory in 1815 at the Congress of Vienna, it means that France has hidden its rebellion.
At that time, he would be able to co-opt the members of the original anti-French alliance to isolate France, and then isolate France.
Not to mention, Felix. Schwarzenberg also had in his hands an important pawn against France - the Count of Chambor (Henry V), the heir to the orthodox faction.
Once the anti-French alliance is formed, they will push into France as quickly as possible, and at the same time sacrifice the most important Count de Chambord to break up the royalists in the army, and then install the pedantic Henry V as king of France, just as they had proclaimed Louis XVIII king of France more than thirty years ago.
In Felix. Schwarzenberg's plan was that the torch of revolution would be extinguished under the butcher's knife of the Tsar, and that orthodoxy would remain in Europe for thousands of years.
As long as the German Confederation declared war on France, it would have been logical for him to place control of the German army under the banner of the Austrian Empire, which had Prussia no longer had great prestige after the war with the French Republic.
However, in Felix. There was a huge loophole in Prime Minister Schwarzenberg's carefully prepared plan to lone France, and that was Britain's view of the Holy Alliance.
Felix. Schwarzenberg didn't know that more than thirty years of the Holy Alliance had already given birth to the British Kingdom to break up the Holy Alliance.
For the entire kingdom of Britain, which cares about the balance of the continent, there is no need for such a united organization to exist on the continent.
Not to mention that the barbarian Slavs from the East, through their influence on the Holy Alliance, have extended their paws to the Strait of Hormuz, and they are about to complete Peter the Great's original vision of access to the sea.
As soon as the Russian fleet enters the Mediterranean, the entire Mediterranean is in crisis, and the desires of the Slavic cattle can never be satisfied.
Felix. Chancellor Schwarzenberg did not know that the problem between the Russian Empire and the Kingdom of Britain had risen to the status of a major contradiction, and that the contradiction between the Kingdom of Britain and the French Republic had turned into a secondary one.
Without Britain's involvement, the anti-French coalition would still have collapsed.
Felix now. Schwarzenberg already had a vague sense that things weren't going in the direction he wanted.
"Your Excellency, what should we do now?" The secretary asked Felix again. Schwarzenberg.
Felix. Schwarzenberg did not immediately answer his secretary's words, but rose from his bejeweled chair and went to the balcony and gazed quietly at the stumps of trees and the bare earth in front of Schönbrunn Palace, which before the European Revolution had been a sycamore forest with a lush lawn underneath.
When Wendy Schretz sent artillery to attack the Vienna opposition, in order to defeat the rebels as quickly as possible, the artillery carried out an indiscriminate attack, accidentally hitting the sycamore grove outside Schönbrunn Palace, and many sycamore trees fell to the ground blocking the road. In order to get the carriage into Schönbrunn Palace smoothly, Wendy Schretz ordered the soldiers to clean up and transport all the fallen sycamore forests away, and the place became what it is now, just as it is now in the middle of Vienna.
However, Felix was inspired to build a revived Austrian empire.
"Mr. Gentz!" Felix. Schwarzenberg spoke.
"Your Excellency!" Feng. Secretary Gentz hurriedly responded to Felix. Schwarzenberg shouted.
"Replant that sycamore forest with sycamores! I will inform you of the countermeasures after I have consulted with Your Majesty. "Felix. Schwarzenberg pointed to the sycamore grove where only the stumps remained. Gentz ordered.
Feng. Gentz was stunned for a moment, he opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, just responded with a "yes".
"Go ahead!" Felix. Schwarzenberg waved his hand to signal von. Gentz handles the "business".
Feng. Gene could only hide all the doubts in his stomach and ask Felix. Schwarzenberg saluted and left.
Feng. After Genz left the Prime Minister's office, Felix. Schwarzenberg also left the office.
Felix walking in the corridors of Schönbrunn Palace. Schwarzenberg was greeted by many nobles, most of whom were nobles living in the Habsburgs at Schönbrunn Palace, who showed even more deferential attitude towards the military chancellor who had helped the Habsburgs return to Vienna than during the reign of Prince Metternich.
Felix. Schwarzenberg smiled back and saluted the Habsburg nobles, but deep down he had no contempt for the waste.
Right here in Felix. As Schwarzenberg was about to reach his destination, he met an unexpected person.
The soldier, dressed in the light blue uniform of Schwarzenberg and with two Grand Crosses on his chest, preemptively greeted Felix. Schwarzenberg greeted: "Prime Minister Felix, I haven't seen you for many days, but you are still radiant!" ”
Schwarzenberg said with a look of surprise on his face: "Archduke Albrecht, when did you return to Vienna!" ”
The person who surprised Schwarzenberg was none other than Albrecht, the son of Archduke Karl, who was supposed to serve in the Italian battlefield.
After the death of Archduke Karl in 1846, Albrecht inherited the title of Archduke Karl, also known as Archduke Albrecht.
After the baptism of the Revolution, Archduke Albrecht seemed much calmer, and he replied unhurriedly.
"Thanks to Your Majesty's summons, I have been summoned back from Lombardy!"
"How's the situation with the marshal?" Felix. Schwarzenberg asked Marshal Radetzky about his physical condition.
Although Felix. Schwarzenberg served as a staff officer at Radetzky's side for less than two months, but he admired Radetzky's loyalty and ability.
If it weren't for the fact that the Austrian Empire at this stage needed a respectable marshal to take charge of the town, he would definitely let Marshal Radetzky recuperate.
[Radetzky, who served as chief of the General Staff of the coalition forces, is 83 years old. 】
"The marshal's body is still strong, and he is following your instructions to put pressure on the Kingdom of Sardinia!" Albrecht responded slowly and methodically to Felix. Schwarzenberg said.
"That's good!" Felix. Schwarzenberg nodded.
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister! If nothing else, I'll leave first, the marshal still needs me! "Albrecht vs. Felix. Schwarzenberg said.
"Go ahead! By the way, help me say hello to the marshal! "Felix. Schwarzenberg responded to Albrecht.
Albrecht nodded and headed towards Felix. Schwarzenberg walked behind him.
Just when Albrecht was about to cross Felix. Schwarzenberg's time, Felix. Chancellor Schwarzenberg suddenly shouted: "Wait! ”
Albrecht froze in place, looking at Felix with a puzzled gaze. Schwarzenberg.
Felix. Schwarzenberg thought for a moment, but finally didn't say anything, just said lightly, "Pay attention to safety".
Looking at Albrecht's distant back, Felix. Schwarzenberg decided to wait until Bach's plan was completed before asking Albrecht if he would like to be governor of Hungary.
Even provincial Hungary still needs a governor in charge.
Felix. Schwarzenberg continued in the direction Albrecht had come and soon came to a gate mountain.
Inside the walnut gate is the titular supreme ruler of the entire Habsburg, Franz. The office of Emperor Joseph.
At the age of 18, Joseph . Franz is not so much a decision-maker as a learner.
His first task is to learn before he follows Felix. Schwarzenberg learns how to handle government affairs.
Of course, even Joseph. Franz was still in his studies, and Felix. Schwarzenberg did not dare to openly elevate the emperor, he had to report everything to the emperor.
Behind the emperor, there can be a Sufi queen mother, who is said to have a leg with the king of Rome.
Felix, who has seen the politics of the Queen Mother. Schwarzenberg did not dare to hide anything at all.
Felix who stayed at the door. Chancellor Schwarzenberg knocked softly on the door.
The door slowly opened, and a military attaché in a gray-and-black military uniform appeared in Felix. Schwarzenberg in front of him.
Felix. Schwarzenberg smiled and bowed his head to the attendant military attache in front of him.
The attendant turned to Joseph. Franz reported: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Felix is here! ”
"Let the Prime Minister in!" Franz. Joseph's voice came from inside the door.
The attendant military attache hurriedly made a way for Felix. Schwarzenberg entered, and when the prime minister entered, the door closed again.
