A genius remembers the address of this site in one second: (Top Chinese), the fastest update! No ads!? Time passed quickly, as early as October, Bulgaria formed mercenaries and arrived in Southeast Asia one after another, temporarily staying in the last stronghold of the Dutch Java island.
The situation is not as bad as Ferdinand expected, and the Japanese are not a charity organization. How can they really help Southeast Asians gain independence?
The Anglo-Dutch colonial government was driven away, but the internal conflicts of the rebel army also broke out. Can a regime that only destroys but does not build can grow?
Obviously, this is impossible, so the line dispute became the fuse for the outbreak of contradictions within the rebel army.
People of insight advocated taking advantage of the coming of the rainy season to reorganize the rebel army, abolish the old and weak, restore production, and establish a country.
It is a pity that their right to speak is too low, except for the establishment of the country, all their claims have been ignored.
The mountain-topped rebel army has quickly transformed into a warlord. How can they give up the army for their rights?
If it weren't for this, the external threat hadn't completely disappeared, and it wouldn't be surprising for them to have a civil war.
In addition, the main purpose of the Japanese is to stir up chaos in Southeast Asia and force the British to retreat. They do not really want to help the locals establish an independent country. This is not in their interests!
From an economic point of view, the huge military expenditures that the London government has spent on Southeast Asia will not be able to recover the costs locally within 20 to 30 years. If it were not for the global strategic needs of the British Empire, they might have abandoned their Southeast Asian colonies.
If it is defeated again, under the pressure of domestic anti-war factions, the London government is likely to abandon Southeast Asia.
From the Japanese point of view, it is not difficult to defeat the British. Successive victories have already let them go. They just wait for the British to withdraw and take the opportunity to occupy Southeast Asia.
If you consider it from a military point of view, if you drag it out for another year and a half, perhaps the insurgents will fall apart due to internal fighting, and the rebellion can be easily suppressed.
Unfortunately, it is not allowed politically. Neither the London government nor the Dutch government can tolerate the continuation of the rebellion, otherwise the opposition party will let them roll down.
"Your Majesty, judging from the current situation in South Asia, unless the Japanese government increases its support for the rebels, it will be suppressed within two to three years!" Chief of Staff Christoph Zou said with frown
"Well, this is really bad for our next actions, but it is unrealistic to expect an uprising to bring down the British, unless we can make the English rebel!" Ferdinand joked
This is really a joke, the English do not need to rebel, they will change to another government at best, which has little effect on the current situation.
Now no matter who comes to power, it is impossible to change the basic national policy of the British Empire. This is determined by interests!
"Your Majesty, the English rebelled, we have nothing to do, but the Irish rebelled, you can try it!" Constantine thought for a while and said
"No, it's just a joke, it's better not to do this kind of shameless thing!
The contradiction between us and the British has not yet risen to the point of death and death. If we take this step, we will not be able to look back! "Ferdinand immediately stopped.
It is easy to support the Irish rebellion, but the Irish rebellion must be successful! If it’s just organizing a group of people to march and demonstrate, yelling with two voices, is there something to do with it?
The enthusiasm for the revolution of the Irish people is estimated to be the point of the demonstration. It is estimated that it will not be possible to let them smash to the end.
...
An episode has passed, and the eyes of the world have once again returned to the European continent. Compared to the Southeast Asian rebellion, the polar bears' separation has a greater impact.
The ongoing king election conference officially kicked off under the supervision of the League of Nations. Six kings were born at a time. Such a flourishing age has never appeared in the history of the world.
Countless people who eat melon are looking forward to seeing who can become the final winner.
Ferdinand, who already knows the result, also pays attention to the election result. If the vote rate is too low, even if the election is won by cheating, the future will not be easy!
"Your Majesty, the results of the parliamentary election of the Grand Duchy of Finland have come out. Prince Boris's approval rate is 86%, and he won this election!" said intelligence chief Morka.
Ferdinand just nodded slightly. This approval rating looks high, but in fact it can only be considered passable.
In order to win, Ferdinand also used a lot of unknown methods. Overwhelming propaganda is indispensable, and coercion and temptation are not less useful.
It is estimated that countless Finns are now celebrating. With Boris, the new Grand Duke from the Bulgarian royal family, they will be exempt from war.
This is the credit of the propaganda. Ferdinand will naturally not do anything to blacken out competitors. European aristocratic circles are all relatives, and competition belongs to competition. The bottom line cannot be broken.
But comparing the strengths of each candidate, the result is obvious.
Some people have an advantage in blood, some people have an advantage in political influence, some...
This time Boris’s biggest rival is the candidate for the Swedish royal family next door. Due to geopolitical influence, if the Finnish Grand Duke comes from the Swedish royal family, it will help promote the relationship between the two countries.
Unfortunately, once Boris appeared, this advantage was not enough. As a product of the marriage between Russia and Russia, his appearance immediately won the support of many people.
After all, although Finland has become independent, the western Russia next door still inherits the essence of the Russian Empire. It is strong and might come back one day.
With the strength of the Grand Duchy of Finland, no one is confident that they can block the offensive of Western Russia. They do not necessarily have a large population and a large army. Such a power gap cannot be made up by wisdom.
The appearance of Boris can just ease relations with West Russia and gain diplomatic support from Bulgaria, which is of vital importance to the Grand Duchy of Finland.
Don't forget, the title of the Grand Duke of Finland is still worn on the head of Nicholas II. If people are unwilling to give up, even if they elect the king, they cannot legally enthrone it!
Another point is that Ferdinand, the number one monarch in contemporary Europe, brings political bonus points. In the eyes of ordinary people, it doesn't need much. As long as he can inherit his two or three points, he can be a great Duke of Finland.
After all, the situation in Finland is relatively simple. As long as the diplomatic relations with the Western Russian Empire are handled well, everything will be easy.
It is impossible for Sweden and Norway to invade Finland next door. Not everyone likes to be neighbors with bears.
Ferdinand doubted that if he hadn't been behind the scenes, Boris might have won the same victory, but whether he could get more than half of the votes was a question.
After all, there are many candidates. From the perspective of pedigree, you can always find the right of inheritance by turning the family history upward, but the source is too far away.
The Finns listed almost all the great nobles as candidates, with a very clear purpose, of course, to build momentum, so as to find a king who can bring them benefits.
Boris may not be able to bring them economic benefits, but it can bring security to the Finnish people!
In the eyes of many people, if he is the Grand Duke of Finland, Finland will be protected from the threat of war in the next few decades. This is more important than any interest.
If Western Russia wants to annex Finland, it must first turn against the Bulgarian royal family~EbookFREE.me~No one now thinks that in the era of Ferdinand, the tsarist government dared to do so.
"Karina, inform Boris, let him be ready, things have been settled!" Ferdinand said slowly.
Although the overall situation has been determined, it does not mean that Boris will soon go to Finland to become a Duke, and it does not matter if it is delayed.
The powerful factions in Finland are not worth mentioning at all. They dare to play any tricks, otherwise a band of bandits from West Russia will be able to wipe them out.
The original Finnish rebels were very unfortunate. At the moment of the success of the revolution, they were brutally killed by bandits who ran over by a bear next door.
Are these bandits still active on the border between the two countries? The revolutionaries, democrats, and republicans of the Grand Duchy of Finland have all been brutally attacked by them, and now they are left with feudal cancer.
As for these bandits, why are they specifically looking for them? The reason is very simple. Of course, the tsarist government is retaliating!
They used their own efforts to create the independence of the Grand Duchy of Finland, but they harmed the interests of the czar nobles. Of course the shameless czarist government did not agree.
Due to the downfall of international public opinion, the Tsar could not continue to enslave the Grand Duchy of Finland, but they could retaliate!
The three most important cities in the Grand Duchy of Finland, Helsinki, Turku, and Espoo, have been ransacked by bandits three times.
These bandits are very ethical, specializing in the robbery of the rich, and they are innocent to the ordinary people. They also open warehouses to release food from time to time, and everyone is too lazy to resist.
In short, before the retaliation of the tsarist government is completed, Grand Duke Boris will not succeed in the past, otherwise everyone's face will not look good.
Even if you want to go, you must ask the Finns to come over crying and yelling, otherwise, wouldn't it seem too cheap?
