Chapter 757: Misfortune (1/2)

After the Near East War became fierce, the French Civil War was also coming to an end.

Since the British came out to mediate the contradictions among the three royalists, the power of the hindrance has greatly diminished, and the monarchy has gained absolute advantage over the Revolutionary Party.

The sphere of influence controlled by the revolutionary government was suppressed to a place in Paris. Although it was the essence of France, it could not withstand the war.

After the blockade of Paris by Napoleon IV, the isolated Parisian revolutionary government gradually fell into the plight of insufficient supplies.

There is a pile of factories empty, not enough industrial raw materials. Even if the Paris revolutionary government took emergency measures in time and unified the distribution of materials, it still could not stand still.

Apart from the ”alliance” of the Italian independent organization, the revolutionary movements in other parts of France were basically flattened by Napoleon IV.

On June 29, 1882, government forces defeated the main forces of the Revolutionary Army outside Paris, and the situation became clear.

...

The changing situation in France has caused Franz to attach great importance. Don't look at the many jokes made by the French in the later generations. These years they are still the courageous French Empire.

Vienna Palace, Foreign Minister Weissenberg analyzed: ”From the current situation, with the counterattack of government forces, the revolutionary government in Paris can not last long.

Once the Paris Revolution is over, Italian independent organizations will not last long, especially after both us and the British have given up their support.

The French settled the civil strife and refocused their attention on the international community. Britain and France are likely to be on the same stand on the Near East.

With one more ally, I am afraid that the British government will not be so peaceful in the coming days.

In order to ensure foolproofness, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs suggested stepping up the offensive against Ottoman, and striving to destroy Ottoman before the British and French took action, resulting in established facts. ”

Franz shook his head: ”It's hard to do. The potential that an ancient empire can explode in the face of life and death must not be underestimated.

The failure of the Paris revolutionary government allowed Napoleon IV to concentrate his forces on suppressing the Italian independence movement. It was a miracle that the gang of Wu He could persist for two months.

This revolution did bring a heavy loss to France, but the crisis was also accompanied by opportunities. In this civil war, Napoleon IV also killed off non-hostiles, eased relations with the Orleans and Bourbons, and consolidated from the side. Rule.

If the measures are taken properly, the next period will be the time when the contradictions in France are most relaxed.

In this context, Napoleon IV's government will basically stabilize after one year, and once again look to the outside world.

We may be able to destroy Ottoman within a year, but this will leave a lot of sequelae, and it is necessary to pay a greater price in the later treatment. ”

From a purely military point of view, it is natural that soldiers and princes are quick and quick, ending the war in the shortest time and paying the least price.

However, this time Austria is not trying to defeat Ottoman, but to annex Ottoman.

Albrecht deliberately delayed the speed of the coalition forces, leaving sufficient time for the Ottoman Empire, not because he did not understand the military.

Quick battles can indeed reduce losses, but the losses of both the enemy and us are decreasing, leaving a lot of old and left behind after the war.

Rather than dealing with the guerrillas after the war, it is better to let the enemy fully mobilize and solve them on the battlefield, the cost will only be lower.

The more people the Sudanese government is armed with, the smaller the hidden dangers left to the place after the war.

When the gun is carried, the enemy is the enemy. In the post-war liquidation, a wave of strains can be engaged and the whole family will be exiled together.

So from the beginning, Franz set a long-term battle plan. Anyway, the impact of this economic crisis is far-reaching, and it cannot be ended in a short period of time, just to use war to transfer the crisis.

Prime Minister Felix reminded: ”Sir, if the French take it easy, our plan to annex Ottoman will not go so smoothly.”

Franz nodded: ”This is inevitable, but no matter how bad, Britain and France cannot support troop intervention.

The situation in France is not very good. Even after suppressing civil strife, Napoleon IV did not have the courage to provoke war at this time.

With the Anti-Turkish Alliance sharing international pressure, even if Britain and France join forces with European countries, we can withstand it. ”

The aftermath is naturally not so simple. With this stimulus, Britain and France will certainly step up.

This is a matter of time, even if there is no Near East War, as Austria becomes stronger, Britain and France will move closer.

The European balance is the basic national policy of the London government. The weakness of France has been exposed. The balance has been broken, and the target of the British's suppression has naturally become Austria.
