Chapter 213： Puppet thief (1/2)
Since Prime Minister Felix's visit to Germany, the issue of reunification has been hot on the media. As if not talking about this topic one day, it will be eliminated by this world.
Especially after the failure of Felix's Bavarian trip, the impact was even greater, and German nationalism was naturally disappointed.
Regardless of whether they agree with the Shen Luo Empire, they have to admit that this is the plan most likely to achieve unity in the German region.
When the unified plan of the Bavarian government emerged, it was immediately passed on to all parts of Germany and caused a sensation.
Austria is naturally dismissive, and three-legged standing also depends on strength. Although the Kingdom of Prussia is only a medium-sized country, the force of the people has reached the level of the great powers, and barely still has this qualification.
But what about Bavaria? Why do they achieve equal status, do they rely on representing many small states? Who agreed?
If their strength is close to that of Prussia, then there is no need to say that a three-legged stand is inevitable. Austria does not have to go west, and it is enough to operate the Balkans honestly.
The Prussian kingdom also does not buy it, and its three-legged political system has no advantage. Both the little German plan and the North-South German plan are in their interest better than this plan.
The two great powers simply laughed at their dissatisfaction, at best the ridicule of the Bavarian government in their newspapers.
The small states in the German region have fried the pan, and are thus represented. Do we agree?
As soon as he was led by the newspaper, public opinion exploded. All kinds of sprays appeared, as if they didn't scold Bavaria, they felt uncomfortable.
The Rhine Daily directly came with an article ”Bavarian Ambitions” and also published the strategic plan for the Bavarian government to annex German states. The steps are detailed as if they were real.
Really and falsely, no one cares about this. Anyway, everyone thinks this is true. Otherwise, how can there be so many cabinets in the German state?
If these states cannot be annexed, why should they represent them in the empire?
It wasn't long before someone broke out of a plan to split Germany and Italy by collaborating with Britain, France, and Russia in an attempt to kick Austria and Prussia out.
This is true because the British and French did make this proposal, and the Bavarian government was willing to accept it. Just before it had time to start, they were stabbed to death in the cradle by Austria and Prussia.
Even the Bavarian government has secretly supported this theory. It's just that the influence is too small to occupy the mainstream in the Kingdom of Bavaria, let alone promote it.
Now that the media turned out to be nonsense, newspapers that do not process art, are you sorry to say that you are a journalist?
Franz admitted that he had paid for it. Without the Austrian government, so many newspapers in the German region would not have been so neatly black in Bavaria.
Of course, there must be a relationship between the Bavarian government's decision-making mistakes this time, and they attach great importance to the support of the powers.
This is a common problem in small countries. It must be seen by the powers of the powers, and it will inevitably be affected by the accumulation of time.
People are ambitious, and Maximilian II is no exception. Playing a balance between Austria and Prussia every day is a boring time.
As soon as the three countries, Britain, France, and Russia agitated, such ambitions could not be held up. Theoretically, the Bavarian plan is not without possibility. If history does not change, the three-point German plan is likely to become a reality.
It's just that the diplomatic operation is more difficult, and the Bavarian kingdom needs to be open a little, at least 200,000 elite divisions.
As long as the attack on the Kingdom of Prussia succeeded after Prussia defeated Austria, the Bavarian strategy was successful, and the success rate was a bit scary.
Anyway, Britain, France, and Russia will support them. As long as this wave of reckless wins is victory, the strategy of a small country is to gamble. How dare you gamble to counterattack?
Now the odds of success are even lower. Austria has not started a road to defeat. Its overall strength is at least two Bavarias higher than in the same period in history, which is completely incomparable.
No matter whether there is an opportunity or not, dreams must always exist. As if Franz wanted to unify the entire German region?
Because it was really impossible to do so, I had to take the second step and execute the Süd German plan, and the difficulty was instantly reduced to a controllable range.
Even the implementation of the South German strategy has been split. The first step was to win Bavaria. If this is done, then talk about the rest. Nothing can be done for nothing.
This strategy of Bavarian distribution has also appeared, and it has appeared in the newspapers.
The first step is to create an excuse to join Prussia, Britain, France, and Russia to kick Austria out of the German Federation;
In the second step, the United Kingdom, France, and Russia kicked Prussia out of the German Federation;
third step,……
No matter how **** these plans are, everyone is still angry. Isn't the plan of the Bavarian government insulting everyone's IQ?
Even Maximilian II was furious. He dared to swear to God in the conscience of heaven and earth. Such a second plan definitely had nothing to do with him.
Of course, this Bavarian government doesn't matter. Even if you have this idea, everyone just thinks about it in your dreams. Who dares to let this content appear on paper?
And even if it ’s being arranged, what's more reliable? The first step was to force Austria out of the hands of the great powers, which was impossible.
The Prussians didn't have to say that they definitely wanted to see Austria get out. The question is who doesn't know that the British and French PK fur bears have played a real fire. Why can Bavaria unite them?
There must be at least common interests, right? For example, Austria has committed public anger and met with common resistance from everyone. But hasn't this happened yet?
Could Bavaria and Prussia bring Austria out? It is estimated that as soon as this plan is put forward, the Austrians will become furious.
Does anyone believe in such a secondary 2 plan? The answer is: yes, and many more.
At least Franz believed, and so did the Austrian government. On April 11, 1853, the Austrian Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a diplomatic note to the Bavarian government, warning the Bavarian government not to play with fire.
The public opinion is uproar, but most people still support it. After all, Austria is only a diplomatic word to warn it, and it is still very defensive to many small German states.
If it ’s really different, it ’s not enough for many people to change their mindset.
Franz was a good-tempered emperor, and he would not be angry and thrive, but he added a note to the comment behind the excuse of war.
Immediately after receiving the warning, the Bavarian government clarified that the above situation was stigmatizing and that they had absolutely no plan to split Germany.
After the vignette, the third wave of public opinion building ended and the fourth wave of public opinion building began.
In May, the new hot topic in the German region became ”How to unify the German region.”
This topic is very sensitive. Governments of various countries are silent, but the people are talking about it. The most lost Shenraists are the first to be eliminated.
The Bavarian government has acted as a potbacker and has become a target of scolding. Of course, in Maximilian II's view, this is worthwhile. Despite being scolded a lot, it is worth the money.
