Chapter 1099: Which smuggling technology is strong (2/2)
Faced with the infringement of sovereignty, the weak Far Eastern imperial government chose to pretend to be deaf and dumb and let the Japanese Navy inspect foreign merchant ships.
Of course, the ships under inspection have no background, or the background is not strong enough. The Japanese still dare not act rashly with ships with a strong background in the ocean.
The tension between Britain and Shinra is true, but the two countries have not really fought after all. Who knows what will erupt, what if you sit down again?
Although the Japanese government chose to gamble on the national fortune, they are not ironic, and they know who they can’t mess with. In the face of these two giants, it is natural to pretend to be grandson.
The most important reason for the original smuggling trade in time and space failed to save the Russian Empire is the lack of support from major powers.
Britain, Germany, America, Austria and Italy all hope that the Russians will fail, and the only ally, the French, only verbally support them. In essence, they still want them to return to Europe to deal with the Germans.
Smuggling trade without the help of foreign powers will naturally fail to scale. In addition to purchasing food and some daily necessities, weapons and ammunition are still transported from the country.
Even these small-scale smuggling trades are an important support for the Russian military in the Far East.
Otherwise, the logistics of the hundreds of thousands of troops would all be transported from the country, not to mention that the Siberian Railway was not opened to traffic, even if it was opened to traffic, it would not be able to support it.
For no other reason, who made the Siberian Railway a single-track railway? The train has left, but it has to return the same way.
Hearing this explanation, Nicholas II's expression slowed down. But the sorrow between the eyebrows still persists.
In theory, with the help of the Holy Roman Empire and the cooperation of the Far Eastern Empire, the crisis can be overcome by smuggling.
But this is only in theory, not to mention the strength of Shinra's support, the cooperation of the Guangyuan Eastern Empire is a big problem.
In recent years, they have not done much harm to the other side. The hatred was formed before, and now I am counting on others to cooperate fully. Isn't that a joke?
There is no need for a big person to take action in person, the local snakes along the way make trouble, and there is enough for them to drink a pot.
Whether it's breaking the road with five broken bridges separated by three distances, or robbing the road by bandits and bandits, it is a hidden danger.
If the normal period is set aside, it goes without saying that someone will be able to directly exert diplomatic pressure on the Far Eastern Empire, but it is not working now.
At the critical moment when the Russo-Japanese War fell into anxiety, the Far Eastern Empire actually had the power to determine the outcome of the two sides.
If the excitement is accidentally overdone and people fall to the Japanese, then the Russian Empire can only bow its head and concede defeat and obediently withdraw from the Far East.
”Push as soon as possible! It is best to let the Vienna government come forward. They have a good relationship with the Far Eastern Empire, and it is easier to coordinate relations.”
It is natural that Nicholas II is not clear about the relationship between Shenluo and the Far Eastern Empire. But one thing he knew was that there was no war between the two sides.
This is enough. As long as the powers do not invade you, it is a symbol of friendship.
The speaker is unintentional, the listener is intentional. In the ears of Mikhailovich, this is the distrust of Nicholas II's ability of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Well, the capabilities of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs really cannot be regarded as ”trust”. In the past years, far more things have been messed up by them than done.
In order to change this situation, the Tsarist government also specially sent overseas students to Austria and Britain to learn professional diplomatic skills.
It cannot be said that there has been no progress, at least in terms of diplomatic etiquette, diplomatic unspoken rules, and common sense of international conventions, no more big jokes have been made.
As for the more important diplomatic ability, it still needs to wait for these people to grow up, and after the Russian Empire is in a high position, it can be truly seen.
