Chapter 978： Change to an obedient stage (1/2)

Franz can't take care of the changing international situation. The Holy Roman Empire has just been restored, and there are still a lot of problems waiting for him to deal with.

The German states are easy to resolve. Anyway, they are all highly autonomous. There is no need for the central government to intervene in local government affairs. After agreeing on the rights and obligations of both parties, things are almost done.

The Rhineland region was in ruins, and there was nothing but a bunch of refugees. Post-war reconstruction became the main task of the Vienna government in 1892.

The situation in the Principality of Lorraine, Alsace, and the Kingdom of Burgundy just got worse. Although historically these areas are the territory of the Holy Roman Empire, the French have ruled the area for hundreds of years and have long been entrenched.

It’s not that there are people who welcome the Holy Roman Empire, but they have become a very small minority, and most people are on the side of France.

Needless to say, the Vienna government will not take over such troubles. Since the Austrian army occupied the above-mentioned areas, they have been repatriating the French people.

Obviously, things will not go so smoothly. The French can be repatriated, but the people of the Holy Roman Empire cannot.

This is a bad debt. The ancestors of many people have been members of the Holy Roman Empire. As long as he can speak a few words in Austrian, and then insist that he is a survivor of the Holy Roman Empire, there is no way to identify it.

The homeland is hard to leave. In order not to be repatriated, everyone who can get in has gotten in. It also includes some anti-Austrian elements, who took the opportunity to lurch down.

Fortunately, the territory obtained this time is not large, and there are not many old forests in the mountains, so it is not suitable for guerrillas to survive. Otherwise, with the cooperation of the locals, it would not be easy for the Austrian army to destroy the guerrillas.

The absence of guerrillas does not mean that the local area is stable. Perhaps it has inherited the French tradition. Vienna just announced the appointment of the chief official of the local government, and demonstrations broke out in the area.

”How many people participated in the parade?”

Franz asked coldly.

It can be seen that he is really angry. I have seen someone who doesn't give face, and I have never seen someone who doesn't give face so much.

If the officials appointed by the central government fail to do a good job, the locals will resist, and Franz can still accept it. Just as soon as the personnel appointment was announced, he jumped out to make trouble, which was far beyond his bottom line.

Compromises and concessions are impossible. If they retreat, the authority of the central government will be ruined. By then, I don’t know how many places will follow suit.

Prime Minister Carl: ”About 200,000 people participated in the parade, especially in Burgundy, and mobs attacked government buildings.

According to the information collected, several small local parties were planning this operation. Want to use demonstrations to coerce the central government to abolish the press bill and open up voting rights in order to achieve regional autonomy.

After the incident escalated, the garrison took over the place immediately. Many political party members are currently being arrested, but unfortunately their leaders went abroad before the incident. ”

”Autonomy” is not a new term. The Holy Roman Empire has many states, so there is no shortage of autonomous regions.

However, these areas are either historical relics or special circumstances that are not suitable for the direct rule of the central government.

Obviously, the three border provinces of Lorraine, Alsace, and Burgundy are not suitable for autonomy. Although the locals now claim to be citizens of the Holy Roman Empire, it is based on the premise of expelling the French, and many people accept it because they are unwilling to run away.

Years are a killer. Hundreds of years have passed, and no one can guarantee how high the local people's sense of belonging to the Holy Roman Empire.

If they were to be self-governed, maybe these guys would hook up with the French again.

Franz rubbed his forehead and slowly said, ”Issued the most wanted order, and arrests these fugitives, regardless of life or death.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is ready to propose a proposal at the next European Union meeting for the signing of a treaty against transnational crime. We cannot allow overseas to become a place outside the law.

As for the people participating in the parade...”

Well, Franz still hesitated. There are too many people involved, and it will be a headache for anyone to deal with it.

”Re-examine the identities of the local people and uncover the French spies who came in. The serious ones were executed on the spot, and the rest were all deported!

The assessment criteria are not limited to language. Any anti-government and anti-social remarks and behaviors, any criminal records, unreported knowledge, and deliberate concealment of enemy agents must be reviewed. ”

”Censorship” is naturally impossible. There are millions of people left behind, and one by one to investigate, it is estimated that this century may not be completed.

In this context, it is natural to take extraordinary measures. In short, in a word, all the people of the Holy Roman Empire are supporting the empire, supporting the emperor, resolutely fighting the enemy, and possessing various fine traditional virtues.

This kind of attempt to split the country and endanger the country is certainly not what the imperial people would do, and the participants must be spies of the French.

There is no connection and no connection. In this age of bloodliness, one is French. Naturally, the whole family is French, including all direct and collateral relatives. Those who have not actively exposed are all French spies.

It is not Franz's intention to expand, but there is no way. If these people are not deported now, it will be difficult to clean up these hidden dangers in the future.

With the banner of the Holy Roman Empire alone, millions of French can take refuge, which is clearly the treatment of the Son of Destiny. If it had such a strong appeal, the Habsburg dynasty would not be beaten to the ground by Napoleon.

After the failed attempts of political means, Franz decisively chose to start a backup plan. Anyway, from the beginning, the Vienna government was not prepared to acquire a population from France.

The seeds of hatred have long been planted, and now it is nothing more than deepening the contradiction between the two countries. If you want to resolve hatred and ease conflicts, you don't need to think about it before this generation is dead.
