Chapter 1105： The Anglo-Austrian War? ? (2/2)

Even if the government has imposed tariff barriers, the domestic sluggish industry has not improved much.

Fierce international competition is only one aspect. The most important thing is that Britain has embarked on the old path of the original time-space usury empire. More and more domestic consortia like the financial industry, and fewer and fewer people are willing to do business honestly.

The British government itself is not very strong, and its policy orientation can affect the domestic economy, but it does not have the ability to make a final decision.

Even if the sunset industry lacks capital injection, even with government support, the development is not smooth.

It can only be said that Campbell is too anxious. If you slow down and wait for the economic policies formulated before to ferment, so that the outside world can see that investment in industry is also profitable, someone will naturally join.

Obviously, Campbell can't afford to wait, nor can Britain. The turbulent international situation tells them that they must be ”fast.”

Industry Minister Henry Burks: ”The opposition from the private sector is growing, and all sectors of society are opposing the government's intervention in the economic market.

It is now impossible to integrate domestic industry in a short period of time. The Ministry of Industry is preparing to adjust the plan and start a backup plan. ”

Politicians who do not look back are always in the minority, and most politicians still prefer to ”act according to circumstances.”

Seeing that the plan failed, the Ministry of Industry, as the specific executor, naturally had to find a way to deal with the aftermath.

Campbell's face became even more ugly when he heard ”Start the backup plan.” There is no way. To put it nicely is a ”backup plan.” The ugly one is to appease the capital community with national interests in exchange for everyone's next cooperation.

Of course, this ”cooperation” must be established on the premise that the government abandons the industrial integration plan.

The Minister of the Interior Azevedo said in an angry tone: ”If you fail, you will fail. Since everyone doesn't care about the overall situation, why should we be this villain!”

This is true. The deeper he understands the country, the more desperate Azevedo feels.

After the strong rise of the Holy Roman Empire, the dazzling British Empire only has its appearance.

Free trade achieved the glory of the British Empire, and free trade also brought the British Empire into a path of no return.

Under the free trade system, British capital gallops all over the world, earning a lot of money.

Even though the economy of Shinra is larger, the capital market still has the right to speak more of the British. Shinra Capital uses industrial and commercial products to make profits, while British Capital relies on harvesting leeks for huge profits.

Regardless of the long-term trade deficit of Britain in international trade, the profits made by British capital are no less than that of Shinra, or even more.

In a sense, this is the core reason for the past few governments, even if they knew that the trade deficit was expanding, and they did not withdraw from the free trade system.

Until the Campbell era, the grievances of the domestic industry and commerce industry had accumulated to a peak, and the contradictions could not be suppressed, and the strong men had to break their arms.

With this cut, everyone discovered the fragility of Britain. Emerging technology fields are all lagging behind. The key is that even the traditional advantageous industries are now experiencing insufficient production capacity.

Azevedo, who suffered a lot of anger outside, could no longer suppress his grievances, and couldn't help breaking the jar.

Asquis, Chancellor of the Exchequer: ”Calm down, Sir Azevedo, Britain has reached the most critical moment, and we can no longer let anger affect our reason.

Although the plan to integrate industrial production capacity is progressing slowly, it is not without gains. At least in the fields of steel and coal, resources are indeed more concentrated, and the increase in production capacity is just around the corner.

Although the progress was a little slower than expected, we have not been in vain during this period. Using the Russo-Japanese War as a cover, the empire purchased a large amount of scarce materials from overseas.

With these materials to supplement, in a short time, we will not fall into a disadvantage. ”

Fortunately, the atmosphere in the room became more tense without explanation. Everyone is paying attention to the illocutionary meaning, and if you don't lose the wind for a short time, it means that the long-term competition will fall.

Secretary of the Army Marcus Katzell: ”We can't solve the problem in essence when we negotiate and discuss it.

As an island country, it is not wise to compete with Shenluo for industrial strength. Don't forget that they are the overlords of Europe, and now the Russians are too busy moving eastward, and they can't play a role at all.

If the confrontation continues for a long time, we will not only face the Holy Roman Empire, but also the European world attached to their wings.

From a military point of view, instead of waiting for the enemy to be ready and launching a challenge to us, it is better to take advantage of the current advantage to start first.

No matter what method is adopted, as long as we can severely damage or even wipe out the Shenluo Navy, the situation will be reversed immediately.

Even if they could not kill the Holy Roman Empire once, at least they would be able to rest for another twenty years. Believing in the power of the Imperial Navy, it is not difficult to do this. ”

After listening to Marcus's proposal, Secretary of the Navy Swinding could no longer sit still: ”Your Excellency thinks we don't want to, but the problem now is that the main force of the Shenluo Navy stays in the Mediterranean.

In the enemy’s Mediterranean nest, covered by air force and shore artillery, the Imperial Navy would find it difficult to achieve success even if it ventured deep into it. ”

The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.

As the leader of the British military, the Royal Navy must stand up to the task of defending Britain. Including all the decisive battle plans formulated by the British government, they are launched around the navy.

The Royal Navy has indeed lived up to expectations. In the past two hundred years, it has been ”God resists and kills God, Buddha resists and kills Buddha.” With battles, the British Empire's centuries of glory was laid.

However, the strength of the Royal Navy has its limits. The enemy can't come out of the nest, and they can't do anything.

Army Secretary Marcus made no show of weakness: ”If the enemy refuses to come out for a decisive battle, then try to draw them out.

At this time, no one still dreams of living in peace with the Holy Roman Empire, right?

Anyway, we have to fight, so we might as well do it in advance to disrupt the enemy's rhythm and increase our chances of winning. ”

Is Marcus really warlike?

The answer is naturally: No.

If there were more choices, he would never think about fighting Shinra now. If a war breaks out, not only the navy will have to push forward, but the army must also go up.

If nothing else, the Cape of Good Hope must be held in a way. Without this important port, the route from the British Isles to India would be difficult.

Not only the Cape of Good Hope, but Persia, Indochina Peninsula and other areas bordering on Shenra are facing challenges.

But it doesn't work if it doesn't fight. Now the British government is already devoting all its resources to supporting the navy. As for the army of stepmothers, they can only follow and eat the leftovers.
