Chapter 155: Yun Chung

European countries have no desire to look at the unification of the German region. Neither the Bavarian and Prussian "Three Domestic Cabinets" or the "Federal Cabinet" proposed by Austria are what the powers want to see.
The wings of a butterfly can create a tornado, and the arrival of Franz has also affected European history. The attitude of the Russians has changed. Instead of wanting to maintain the status quo in the German region, they want the German Federation to split directly.
This idea was also shared by Britain and France, who experienced the terrible nationalism after the Great Revolution of 1848.
The success of Austria's reforms also caused them to worry, for fear of binding the German region like this, the Holy Roman Empire will be resurrected one day.
The best option is to divide it into three, and Austria, Prussia, Bavaria, and the remaining states will join together to form a separate state, or dissolve the federal parliament and let these states be independent.
independent?
This is the 19th century, not the 21st century. This is an era of colonialism.
Don't look at this German Federation seems to have not played much role. In fact, it is because of the existence of the Federation that their national security is guaranteed.
Without the protection of the Federal Republic of Germany, these states in the German region could be destroyed in an instant.
The Prussians want to expand, the French want to expand, and Austria also wants to expand, because the existence of the federation checks and balances with each other, the Prussians have no way to deal with them, the French dare not act against them, and Austria cannot.
The complicated international situation is the reason for the freak existence of the German Federation after the end of the Holy Roman Empire.
The small states are all warming up in groups, and Bavaria has become the natural leader of the small states, responsible for leading everyone to compete with Prussia and Austria.
Franz thought for a while and said, "Continue to increase the penetration of the Bavarian region, and we will still mobilize the high-level government, so we will first draw some middle and lower levels."
Buying people ’s hearts is also cost-conscious. The high-level Austria of the Bavarian government ca n’t give much, but the middle and lower levels of the government are different. Just giving a little benefit is enough to change their position.
Felix proposed: "Your Majesty, we need to establish a German national unification organization, which is specifically responsible for attracting people from all walks of life and undermining the determination of all countries to fight against Austria.
Our strategy for the South German state is mainly political pull-in, supplemented by military means. Except for some die-hards who must fight, the rest can fight as much as possible.
Bavaria is an indispensable link, because of its geopolitical relationship, they have a great influence in the South German region.
If we can quickly occupy Bavaria when the unification war breaks out, then the remaining states are likely to fall into the wind. "
Franz knew that it was a fake to win people from all walks of life, and the real goal was to win the lower nobility, especially the military nobles. As long as they fell to Austria, the unification war would be ready.
Franz nodded and said: "Then set up the German Unification Commission, which exists as an independent civil society, dedicated to the unification of the German region, and in the clear should not be related to Austria."
Such an organization must not be related to Austria. In addition to diplomatic troubles, there are means and methods of pulling people, which are certainly not so glamorous on the surface.
Intimidation and lure are considered to be harmonious. When necessary, it is possible to accompany an assassin to remove some die-hards. This pot can only be carried by national extremists.
It is estimated that they would not care, and it is not a blame, at most they are scolded now. After the reunification, they are the heroes of the German region.
...
The diplomatic game has begun. In this era, the problems in the German region are definitely not limited to the internal settlements of the German states. The attitudes of the powers are also crucial.
Britain, France, and Russia are the three inescapable masters. The attitudes of France and Russia are especially important. These two countries have the ability to send troops to intervene.
But now is not the time for the showdown. The Prussian government just wants to show the public that they support the German unified position and restore the damaged reputation. It does not mean that they really give up their ambitions for the German region and instead support Bavaria. "Three-legged stand."
Can the Bavarian government see this problem? Obviously it is impossible. If you don't see this, no one will object to uniting with Prussia.
Unfortunately, Maximilian I could not resist the temptation, only saw the benefits and not the dangers. It's easy to fall a tightrope in diplomacy, and Bavaria lacks a diplomat who can control the big picture.
In the history of the Austrian-Prussian War, Bavaria wanted to sit on the tiger's shoulders, and had promised to send 100,000 troops in place, which directly led to a quarter of the Plu's soldiers being more powerful than Austria when the battle was final.
Of course, it's not just Bavaria that pits teammates. Except for Hanover, the rest of Austria's allies were almost defeated by the Pru soldiers.
If it weren't for Italy and also a pig teammate, it is estimated that the Pu-Olympic war will end sooner. Perhaps it is too much to trust teammates, the Austrian government has no defense at all, and the national mobilization has not been carried out, and directly put 300,000 active troops on the battlefield.
Obviously, the strategic vision of Maximilian I was not good. He did not expect that the Austrian government would be so persuaded, and after a defeat, he simply gave up and lost, and he did not die with the Prussians at all.
Looking back at history, Franz found that Puao was indeed a family, and the level of finding teammates was the same garbage.
From the beginning of the Pu-Olympic war to the end of World War II, there were no fewer pig teammates around.
...
Paris
After the anti-French war, the French Foreign Ministry has rarely been so lively. Austria, Prussia, and Bavaria are all seeking diplomatic support.
President Napoleon is very happy, and he is interested in anything that can expand France's influence.
Don't even think about it, President Napoleon knows who to support. Dividing the German region into three and allowing Bavaria to lead the small states against Puao is the best choice for the French.
Unfortunately, at this time, France is not suitable for being a fledgling bird. The bad things in the country have not been solved, and European countries are still very afraid of them.
Diplomatically, it's okay to yell. If you really go to interfere in the affairs of the German region, most of the two countries will join hands to bring them back.
Anyway, now that the president supports the matter, the parliament opposes it, the president that the parliament supports vetoes, and Louis-Napoleon-Bonabar is simply muddy.
Not to mention the French parliament, their foreign policy is more conservative, and most of the time depends on the response of the British.
...
London
Hearing the news that the Federal Republic of Germany is going to form a responsible cabinet, the first reaction of Prime Minister John Russell is impossible, and the second reaction is that this upcoming cabinet must be dismantled.
Continent balance is the first national policy of the British. If the German region is unified, a huge giant will emerge in Central Europe.
Europe's second largest industrial country, Europe's second territorial power, Europe's first economy, Europe's first army power, Europe's largest population country ... it's scary to think about it.
John Russell complained unbelievably: "What happened, how did I feel the world became strange overnight?
Can anyone tell me why this is, the German region may even be unified! "
Foreign Minister Palmerston explained: "His Prime Minister, the German region is not so easy to unify. The 'responsible cabinet' is just a product of the struggle between the three states of Opba. A cabinet destined to have no real power will not play any role. "
Minister of State Edward frowned, "But the existence of this cabinet will still break the balance of the German region. No matter who wins or loses, as long as the responsible cabinet appears, the road to the unification of the German region has taken a big step forward.
Especially the 'three domestic cabinets', if Austria has reached a compromise with Prussia and Bavaria, the German region is likely to be unified, at least politically and militaryly, they can achieve alliances. "
Everyone plays politics, and naturally knows that the fewer people, the easier it is to reach an agreement. On the contrary, Austria proposes that all states and states together form a smaller threat.
There are more than thirty states in the German region, and each state must have someone join the cabinet. With so many people together, there will be quarrels every day.
No possibility of true alliance between the three countries of Oppa?
The answer from the analysis of benefits is: yes; the answer from the actual situation is: no.
If Prussian abandons the ambition to unify Germany, then Franz would not mind giving up plans to annex the South German region.
This is somewhat similar to the Sanjin alliance in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Once Zhao Wei Han formed an alliance, they could hang the Quartet, and the same is now true of Opuba.
The difference is that once this alliance was established, neither Prussia nor Bavaria had the opportunity to expand on the European continent.
Bavaria is weak and is caught in the middle of the three countries of Opp. After the establishment of the alliance, their safety is guaranteed, and it is in their interest to be able to farm and run well.
Austria can also expand to the Balkans, and it can also be supplemented by manpower in the German region. The disadvantage of insufficient main ethnic groups will be resolved, and more energy will be invested in overseas colonial expansion.
Moreover, in Austria's size, it is only a matter of time to gain dominance in the alliance, and Franz has no reason to oppose the alliance.
Prussia wouldn't do it. Despite their military might, the Prussian kingdom was actually not large.
While maintaining a Continental Army, the Kingdom of Prussia also lost the opportunity to develop its navy. National strength did not allow them to develop both land and sea rights.
Therefore, we must abandon it. In theory, after the establishment of the alliance, Prussia does not have to worry about land security. It can reduce the army to develop the navy and open up overseas colonies.
Unfortunately, Prussia is the Prussia of the Junker aristocrats. They cannot give up their own interests for the benefit of the country.
Franz's understanding of this problem does not mean that everyone sees it, especially the maritime countries like Britain.
In their opinion, if you can easily get benefits from overseas, why even take risks on the European continent?
In the current international situation, the Prussian kingdom has almost no chance of expanding on the European continent. The British believe that the Prussian government will not be so unwise.
Prime Minister John Russell said decisively: "Mr. Palmerston, there are already enough enemies in the British Empire. There is no need to add another enemy.
Now, no matter what your foreign ministry does, in short, we cannot allow a unified government in the German region, even if it is just a name!
It is better to separate the German Federal Parliament, and I always feel that bringing them together will sooner or later become our big trouble. "
Palmerston replied confidently: "Relax, Your Excellency the Prime Minister. It is impossible to unify the German region. It is not just us who want to break them up!"
