Chapter 212: Excuse of war (1/2)
With Franz's order, Bavaria became lively.
Prime Minister Felix's speech in Munich still has a role. Most of the younger generations in Bavaria have been tricked, one by one thinking about how the German region should be unified.
That thought went wrong. Based on their social experience, they cannot consider the issue at all, and it is very easy to go to extremes when looking at the issue.
If no one has the rhythm, then it's OK, but how could Franz, who had been prepared, give up this opportunity?
Experts and scholars have jumped out to express their opinions, criticizing the Bavarian government authorities for their own interests, which is destroying the unity of the German region.
In the eyes of most people, rebuilding Shenluo is not the best choice, but it is the most suitable choice. When the road to peaceful reunification is blocked, only military reunification is left.
Some people may be eager to make a contribution in the war, but this is definitely not a civil war.
Affected by Prime Minister Felix's speech, these self-proclaimed elite students couldn't bear it. They thought they should do something for the unification of the country and couldn't watch the government mess.
Demonstrations, such a meaningful activity, are regarded as the best way to make their own voice.
Everyone is an intellectual. Even in the procession, you can find the legal basis. The previous king Ludwig gave a speech before abdicating, and it became a banner for everyone.
(Under the influence of the Revolution, Ludwig abdicated. In order to win the hearts of the people, he publicly stated that the royal family would work for the unification of the German region.)
Maximilian II had a headache and the political bomb detonated. Even if there is no such thing as immutable ancestral family law in Europe, the remarks before the abdication of the old king also have political effect.
Now everyone wants the king to come out and give an explanation. Since the royal family is committed to the unification of the German region, how can the current government run counter to it and explain it?
It wasn't just the king who was questioned, the Cabinet Minister was also questioned by the nation. Everyone's attitude is very clear. It is OK to oppose the establishment of Shen Luo, but you must come up with a German unified plan?
Whether it is feasible or not, at least it should be able to persuade everyone in theory and gain the approval of most people.
Maximilian II asked anxiously: ”What are you doing now, the people outside are waiting for us to answer?”
They are not unprepared, but the previous emergency plans were all used to deal with some trouble. The question is, do these people make trouble?
The quality of the crowds participating in this demonstration was much higher than usual. It was not just workers and students, but also middle class, capitalists, sociologists, and nobles.
The breadth of coverage covers all groups in the Bavarian Kingdom. Even if the Bavarian government suspects that this is organized, they have no evidence in their hands and dare not act rashly.
Not long after the Great Revolution, everyone was worried and did not dare to make trouble, for fear of causing social unrest.
Prime Minister Auguste replied: ”Your Majesty, the best way now is to come up with a unified German plan to convince the people as much as possible.”
In fact, in the entire German region, the governments of various states are preparing their own unified plans. Since they are opposed to the reconstruction of Shinra, there must be new substitutes.
Otherwise, as Felix slammed, ”If you don't do anything all day, you will know to oppose it”.
”Prime Minister, what's your idea?” Maximilian II asked
Auguste replied, ”Your Majesty, we can change our previous plan and change the plans of the three domestic cabinets.
The reason is still the same: there are too many states in the German region. If everyone participates in decision-making together, there will be quarrels every day.
The best option is to replace many small states with Bavaria, forming a balance between the central government and Prussia, Austria, and jointly dominating this empire.
Of course, this proposal is definitely impossible to obtain the support of other states, but it is feasible to convince the nationals, Bavaria can get the greatest benefits.
As long as the Austrians can accept the formation of three domestic cabinets, we support the reconstruction of the Holy Roman Empire. ”
After hesitating, Maximilian II made up his mind and said, ”Okay, just do that.”
This will offend small states, but the two powers will be the least. Offending these small states is nothing more than protesting. If you don't give an explanation to the domestic people, it will affect the basis of rule.
Since the support of the powers, the Bavarian government has become much more courageous. If Puao wasn't too strong, they would all want to unite many small German states by force.
Moreover, this time the Bavarian government has taken the initiative for everyone and shattered the Austrian plan for the Holy Roman. Even if the slogan is overdone now, everyone is understandable.
...
On March 4, 1853, Britain and France ignited the Crimean War, disrupting the Russian deployment as soon as they shot.
The British strategy is not wrong, the Tsarist government is really tired. After a new front was added, the logistical supplies of Russian troops on the Balkans fell to Austria.
To the surprise of the coalition forces, the Russian army engaged in the Crimean War not only had a low combat effectiveness, but even its weapons and equipment were so bad that it could be regarded as a Hanako army.
There is no way, and the tsarist government is helpless. Most of the Russian elite troops filled the Balkan battlefield, or they went to the Caucasus battlefield, and the rest were second-line troops or reserve forces.
Insufficient training, weapons and equipment were not enough. As soon as the fighting broke out, the Russians naturally suffered a big loss. Had it not been for the terrain and climate of the Crimean War, and the coalition forces that had not adapted, the two sides would now have won.
Vienna
Chancellor of the Exchequer Carl Shensheng said: ”Your Majesty, the Russians applied for a loan again from us, and the tsarist government's bond sales were cold in the market, and most investors were worried that they would default.
Franz was too lazy to talk about the Russians, and his credibility was so bad that there was no one. Even if collateral is taken out, investors are worried about their default.
This is not unfounded. Mao Xiong has a precedent. Ordinary debts can be settled, even with collateralized debt, they can also make excuses to settle accounts.
For example, if the mine is mortgaged, they can levy a mess of taxes specifically for the mine, forcing investors to exit on their own.
