Chapter 471： Bur republic (2/2)

Regardless of the ability to send people from China, let alone time, it is too late. This war was fought for time. If it lasted three or five months, it would eventually become a war of attrition.

At that time, both parties will have to fight for manpower and financial resources. Maybe the British do n’t advise them. It is difficult to say.

As long as it killed tens of thousands of people, he could not explain to the people in the country. To know that their enemy is the ”Bur Republic”, to attack a small projectile country, pay the price, it is difficult to not want to go to military court.

Major-General Friedman hurriedly replied: ”Her Governor, the situation has exceeded expectations. I did not expect that the Austrians would be so shameless and fight against us by impersonating the army of the Boer Republic.

No one knows how much their investment is. There are 30,000 enemies in front of us. It is very difficult for us to defeat them. If the enemy continues to send more troops, I am afraid the final outcome will be difficult to predict. ”

This answer to shirk responsibility made Governor Delphi very dissatisfied. But he didn't say anything, everyone is now on a boat.

It is always right to exaggerate the strength of the enemy first. It is even more remarkable to win everyone's warfare, and to lose is the enemy's too powerful and non-war crime.

Governor Delphi said without change: ”Yes, the Austrians are so shameless that they are posing as troops of the Boer Republic, and we must smash their conspiracy.

Cage, immediately asked for help from London Power Generation, explaining the difficulties we face and asking the Foreign Ministry to protest to Austria. ”

If you are not afraid that the data will be too large, it will easily cause outside doubts. Governor Delphi will not mind doubling the number of enemy forces.

As for letting the Foreign Ministry protest, it was all a joke. It is impossible for the Vienna government to recognize such a thing. The Boer governments fell into the hands of Austria, and they took full responsibility.

In any case, as long as the Boer Republic insists on its own army, this lawsuit will not go on.

Unless a big fish is caught, this possibility is zero. None of the Austrian nobles who commanded the war were active officers, and they did not have much visibility internationally.

From start to finish, the Vienna government was not involved in the war. As for the weapons and ammunition provided by the merchants, they were all bought by the Boer Republic.

Austria is a member of the free trade world, and it is not unusual to sell arms.

Even the history of the Boer military expenditure is clear. The Vienna government has not sponsored a penny. The Boer Republic used land mortgage to borrow 300 million Aegis from the Imperial Bank.

Don't talk about risk. This is usury, and the monthly interest rate is only 18%. Since interest is so high, the risk is naturally not small.

Franz handles all the aftercare work properly, not afraid that someone can pick out the problem.

After the war, it was inevitable that the Boer Republic would not have enough money. Without this reason, how could Austria annex the Boer Republic after the war?

As an emperor, Franz did not want a republic in the empire. It ’s not enough to take away the collateral, and the dissolution of the Boer Republic is justified.

It can be said that the British-British War provided Austria with an excellent excuse, and even the cost of buying local power has fallen sharply.

If Franz is shameless, he can choose to settle accounts. Since the agreement was not completed, the conditions promised at the time were naturally void.

It can be said that Viscount Fickney packs the high-level of the Boer Republic to the rear, which is a godsend, completely cutting off their bargaining chips.

Of course, those who choose to cooperate with Austria from the beginning will certainly not be so tragedy. Franz, who has always been atmospheric, will not do that shameless thing.

It ’s unfortunate that there are no good terms to talk about, and we do n’t need to talk about them now. There are only three paths left: either follow Austria; or go to the British; or hurry.

Anyway, Viscount Fickney was not reluctant to kill a group of interest groups.

This war is not a vain fight. The more you invest now, the greater the gains after the war. There are not enough benefits, but not so many nobles bring their own dry food.

The land in South Africa is still very good. Not only is the land fertile, but the climate is very livable. These plantation owners have long wanted to come to the enclosure.

Fortunately, they didn't know that there were gold mines underground, otherwise they would have come to more than a dozen nearby nobles. It is estimated that the local nobles could not help but participate.

Don't talk about these people. Think of the horrible gold reserves of the Rand Gold Mine, and even Franz was tempted, but he could not bear it.

More money is just a number. Gold mines are too treacherous and easy to pull hatred. Even if it is mining gold, it must be hidden behind it.

Buying gold is a good business. It may not make less money than mine owners, and it will not be noticeable.

On the surface, it seems that the profit from the purchase of gold is not very large, and it is slightly lower than the market price.

In fact, if you go to the financial market to roll around, then process it into art, and flow it into the gold consumer market, the profit will be completely different.

What's more important is that the capital cost of the bank's purchase of gold is negligible. Gold is also a currency, and it is more reliable to place it as a reserve than any currency.

Even in the run-in crisis, no one will refuse to accept gold payments.
