Chapter 1093： Specific speed (2/2)
Even if it is undead, it will be able to extend Britain's hegemony for many years. At least in their generation, hegemony can be maintained.
Foreign Secretary Adam Wenjiade: ”Don't worry, Prime Minister. We have done everything that should be done. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has long released goodwill to the Russians through a third party, but it is a pity that the Tsarist government did not buy it.
Now they still have illusions about Shenluo, especially after getting the loan from the Vienna government, the Russians don't treat us as the same thing.
Wanting to change the political stance of the tsarist government is not a matter of overnight. I hope this war will wake them up. ”
Complaining and complaining, it can be seen from the smile on his face that Wen Jiade is not angry.
Britain and Russia were originally enemies, but now Britain is supporting their enemy, the Japanese. The tsarist government knows how to choose if it doesn't have any water in its head.
Knowing that there is nothing to do, it is naturally not that Wen Jiade is full and wants to ask for trouble.
From the very beginning, the British government did not expect to release the so-called ”goodwill” to ease relations with the Russians.
Now through a third-party transfer, the main purpose is to inform the Russians so that the Tsarist government understands that in addition to the Holy Roman Empire, they have a choice, not to go to the dark with Shinra.
”Turning an enemy into a friend” has never been a simple matter. This is true between people, and the same is true between countries. It is necessary to have the right time, place and people.
Now the British Foreign Office has only planted a seed in the hearts of the top Russian leaders. As for whether it can take root and sprout, it has to wait for the future development.
...
The British are acting, and the Vienna government is not idle. Although it did not pull people around to form alliances, it is also strengthening and consolidating relations with existing allies.
Under the pretext of imposing sanctions on Britain for arbitrarily sabotaging free trade, under the call of the Vienna government, on April 26, 1904, the third world economic summit was held in Vienna.
The scene is dense, but it is a pity that the word ”world” has become a misnomer. Except for the European countries that have sent important figures to participate, most other countries have dealt with it.
The three words ”wall-to-grass” are used by various countries, and the romance is vivid and vivid.
There is no one to be angry, this is expected. In this world of the weak and the strong, small countries have always been precarious. It can be said that every time standing in a team is a decision of fate.
If it is not used as wall grass, then the grave will grow grass. In order to survive, everyone can only rely on the strong.
To be able to send someone to the meeting is to save face. Those who send important people to participate can basically default to ”stand in line”.
In a sense, this Vienna Economic Summit is another verification of geopolitics.
The European countries support Shenluo. On the one hand, they are optimistic that Shenluo can win, but there is still no choice.
If you don't participate in the meeting, what if you are regarded as a British comrade and are sanctioned together?
This is considered lucky, I am afraid that before the war for hegemony breaks out, the Vienna government cleared the field in advance and cleaned them up first.
As for offending the British, there is no other way. Everyone can only find ways to remedy them.
If Franz is not wrong, a secret representative rushed to London as the delegation set off.
Know that you know, when you should be confused, be confused. It is natural to weigh the pros and cons, and everyone is playing this way just to survive.
For these allies, Franz has never had much expectation, as long as these guys can follow the wave of the flag in normal times, and it is enough not to make trouble at the critical moment.
Fighting for hegemony, you still have to do it yourself. Relying on allies, even if you win, the foundation will not be firm.
When a friend comes, it must be received. Fortunately, Franz has enough privileges as the old birthday star of the European monarchy.
To be able to show up at the welcome banquet is to give everyone a lot of face. Don't even think about more.
In contrast, Frederick was tragic. As the imperial prince, wherever he goes, he is the center, and a group of people surround him every day.
In the face of these uninvited guests, Frederick could not dismiss it at will, and could only go out to socialize with his scalp.
Looking at his haggard son, Franz didn't know what to say. Looks like back then, I also...
Well, this comparison is not suitable. The situation is completely different, Franz succeeded as an adult.
The emperor and the crown prince are not the same, because of their different identities, their ways and methods of dealing with things are different.
”If you can push the entertainment later, don't attend all banquets, there is no need.
If you can't save face, just let your cousins deal with it, don't carry everything on your own. ”
Frankly speaking, Frederick is so busy, Franz is also responsible. If it hadn't been for him to send his other sons overseas, Frederick would not have been exhausted.
”Cousin”, although he is also a direct member of the Habsburg dynasty, he is still a bit worse in terms of status and can represent different meanings.
Don't say anything else, you know from the title. Even if the emperor's son is not a prince, a grand duke title is still indispensable, but the grand duke's son is not necessarily a grand duke.
Especially after completing the reform of the noble system, some nephews who have not yet completed the gilding may have only one ”lord” on their heads.
Of course, the aristocratic world does not only look at titles, but also pays more attention to the surnames behind them.
Let these little guys enter the battle, although it is suspicion of negligence, but Franz believes that all friends who can come over will definitely not mind such a small flaw.
With a taste of blame, Frederick explained: ”I know my father, I will pay attention. It is mainly because a few old friends who have not seen me for many years have come, and I only have a little more time for socializing.”
Hearing the word ”friend”, Franz felt bad. Having been in this world for so many years, I have everything but no friends.
There is no way, the world of the monarch is lonely. In his youth, Franz showed exceptional maturity and couldn't play with his peers.
He has become the emperor when everyone is still reading and laughing. The gap in identity has increased the distance.
Not to mention the older generation, all of them are old foxes, and they must guard against being calculated together, let alone ”friends”.
If there is gain, there will be loss. There is nothing perfect in this world. Had it not been for Frederick's mention, Franz would have almost forgotten the word ”friend”.
After regaining his senses, Franz waved his hand and said: ”Okay, it's good if you know it in your heart.
This economic summit will also be a cutscene. It is best to reach a few economic agreements.
The next focus of work is ”shipbuilding.” Although we released the fake news, it is estimated that it will not be fooled for a few days.
The next step is to compare the speed with the British, whoever has the first warship to serve, then in the next battle for hegemony, who can have the first hand advantage.
At the shipyard, you spend more time staring. Without affecting the quality, speed up the progress as much as possible. ”
To fight for maritime supremacy, it is natural to ”lay dumplings”. The several major shipyards of the Holy Roman Empire have already begun operations.
Such a big movement naturally cannot keep the secret, and Franz did not expect to keep it secret.
The release of smoke bombs to disrupt the judgment of the British is mainly to provide material for the quarrel of the British Parliament.
True or false, false and true, the number of shipbuildings in multiple versions, no matter which one the British believe in, it will take a few days to discuss.
Make a decision immediately, it does not meet the basic national conditions of Britain. Even if the government can reach an agreement, the parliament will have to quarrel.
For the Holy Roman Empire who wants to grab time, every day now is very important. For every extra day, the Navy’s odds of winning are even greater.
