Chapter 875： The underrated Napoleon IV (2/2)

Regulations are also set by people, and it is not impossible to get around. The troop carrier is not navigable, which does not mean that ordinary merchant ships are not navigable.

Weaponry and equipment all walked at the Cape of Good Hope. Soldiers took off their military uniforms and boarded a merchant ship, posing as guards.

However, this is only for small forces, mobilizing tens of thousands of reinforcements, unless someone within the Canal Company cooperates, otherwise it will not work at all.

The Foreign Secretary George frowned and replied: ”This is probably very difficult. Even if the French government is willing to help, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not be discovered.

Russia and Austria are allies, and once problems are discovered, they will most likely detain our soldiers.

The French are unreliable, and once things are revealed, the Paris government will not support us. ”

There is no way. The British and French have been pitting each other for hundreds of years. Even if an alliance is formed now, no one can guarantee that the French will not deliberately pit them.

What if they reach an agreement with them on the front foot and sell them on the back foot?

Eating from home to eating from home has always been a characteristic of the times. In case the British soldiers were detained on the Suez Canal, the battlefield in Afghanistan was over.

In addition to requiring the French to contain Austria, the more important thing is to prevent the three countries of Russia, France and Austria from coming together.

Although the chance of this happening is very small, the British government does not dare to take risks. After all, it is the interests and hatred that affect the national policy.

Britain and France are world feuds, and in case the French government is hot-headed and runs to join the Russian-Austrian League, Britain will be finished.

As long as you think about the issue of war bonds issued by the French financial community for the Russians, you know how unreliable the British-French relationship is.

After weighing the pros and cons, the Army Secretary Rosario decided to give up without waiting for the Prime Minister ’s position.

”There are no accidents on the battlefield in Afghanistan. The reinforcements still have to go to the Cape of Good Hope. It is really uneasy to put hope on the French.”

...

At the New Versailles Palace in Paris, Napoleon IV was in a very good mood after watching the two nasty ghosts in Britain and Russia pinch each other.

In order to provoke the Anglo-Russian War, the French government also made a lot of efforts. It's just more concealed, and many people ignore the role played by the French government.

Including alliances between Britain and France and issuing war bonds for the Russians are just some of them.

Without the efforts of the French government, the British government will not decide so quickly to send troops to Afghanistan, the Russians will not rush to fight against Central Asia, and naturally there will be no current British-Russian war.

Foreign Minister Karel Kadletz: ”Your Majesty, both Britain and Russia are urging us to fulfill our ally's obligations.”

The French government actually had an inferior relationship with the British and secretly had a secret contract with the Russians. If this news is spread, it is estimated that the whole world will be shocked.

It ’s not that there is no trace of it at all. The issue of war bonds for the Russians in front of the French financial circles proves the connection between France and Russia.

It's just that the French government didn't participate. It was the French consortium that undertook the business. The capitalists did some wonderful things for the benefit, which is not big news.

Napoleon IV sneered: ”Tell the British that as long as Austria does not object, we agree to free navigation on the Suez Canal.

If necessary, we can also send troops to Afghanistan.

Considering that the logistics system is different, we are responsible for our own logistics. In order to facilitate the supply, let them provide us with an outlet in the Indian Ocean.

Tell the Russians that we will block the Suez Canal and ban the naval ships of the British.

As for the issue of sending troops, let them persuade the Vienna government first. As long as Austria declares war on the British, we will follow up immediately. ”

The French army sent troops to Afghanistan, and the British government welcomed it. However, it is impossible to provide the French with an outlet in India.

It is easy to ask God to send God, but once the forces of the French are put into India, it will be difficult to expel them.

By that time, Britain's competitors in India will not only be the Russian Empire, but the two countries, France and Russia, and there may be an additional Austria.

In the face of interest, nothing is impossible. As long as there is no water in the brain of the British government, it will not do so.

The answer to the Russians was also perfunctory, not allowing the British to use the Suez Canal to transport troops, mainly to give the Russians a greater advantage on the battlefield.

The British-Russian war will continue only if the Russian army occupies the Afghan region and threatens the security of India.

Foreign Minister Karel Kadletz said bitterly, ”Your Majesty, wouldn't it be a good answer?”
