Chapter 243: Refugee crisis breaks out


No one paid attention to the battle between the British and the Principality of Montenegro. The difference in strength between the two sides was too big. It could not be made up with blood. The victory or defeat was decided from the beginning.
Even Franz is not optimistic about the Principality of Montenegro. Their foundation is too thin and they cannot afford to consume it at all. Even if they repelled the British-Saharan attack, they were losers.
This is the sorrow of a small country. The population is so small. Regardless of the combat effectiveness, war is always dead. The Principality of Montenegro cannot afford to die.
Now that the Near East War has hit, the Balkan peninsula has lost more than one million people, and may even exceed two or three million, especially the loss of young people is particularly severe.
The Ottomans were fighting the strong men, and the bears were not polite. Including the ongoing Constantinople offensive and defensive battles, the Russians captured a lot of young people and sent them to the front line as cannon fodder.
Gray animals are no longer valuable, they are also the Tsar's soldiers and belong to their own, how can they be more valuable than these cannon fodder.
Constantinople's offensive and defensive battles cost thousands of people every day.
With cannon fodder, Menshekov would not be under pressure. He died, and the Austrian government was very cooperative.
Until the Austrian nationality is obtained, the Austrian government has no obligation to protect their security, and the two principalities of the Danube River have been scourged by the Russians in recent times.
Those who resisted learning German in the first place are too late to cry one by one. There is no way, language assessment is not enough, political ideological review is not enough, and nationality cannot be obtained.
The two Principalities of the Danube are now nominally a part of the Ottoman Empire, and the Austrians are only temporarily occupied and have no obligation to protect their security.
Franz can only express regret for the brutality of the Russian army. Protest to go to St. Petersburg. The Russian army does not control him. He cannot help the current situation.
It's not much to arrest Zhuang Ding. Anyone who knows the Russians knows that most gray animals are not armed, and the only income is to grab the battlefield.
According to the news from the front line, at least half of the local people have been robbed by the Russian army. Except for the safer areas where the Austrian army is stationed, the Russians have been allowed to plunder.
Because of the westward strategy, Austria pulled back a large number of troops. Naturally, all areas were not taken into account. Only Austrian soldiers were stationed in areas with good Austrianization conditions, which provided opportunities for the Russians.
Franz dared to guarantee that Austria had never colluded with the Russians on this issue, and that these atrocities were spontaneously organized by Russian soldiers.
Everyone cooperated very happily. The Russians had finished the robbery and needed to sell the stolen goods. The safe area controlled by Austria was the best place to trade.
Almost every Russian border crossing is a mess. Good luck is just being robbed, and bad luck is ruining the home.
The world is so cruel, and when the news is passed to Franz's hands, it all happens, and it's done. How many people died locally is completely unknown and can only be counted slowly after the war.
Not only are the Russians and Ottomans scourge the Balkans, the British, French, and Sardinian coalition forces are not good. In order to improve meals, everyone is self-handed.
Suffered by so many army turns, the rich have long gone, including the nobles of the Ottoman Empire.
These are smart people, knowing that it is not reasonable to explain to the big soldiers. In a time of wild wars, human lives were the least valuable.
Those who can run are gone, and the rest are a bunch of poor ghosts. Either the bottom of the free people, or the serfs, there is nowhere to go.
Marshal Radsky said frowningly: "His Majesty, an emergency telegram was sent from the front, and Serbia was hit by refugees and suppressed by the army.
The atmosphere is very tense now, and I am afraid that chaos will occur again soon. The new ninth division stationed on the front line requested domestic support. "
There is no way. In any war, you will inevitably produce a large number of refugees. You lost your livelihood because of the war. Everyone has no choice but to go out to discuss their lives.
Franz asked with concern: "How many refugees gather at the border?"
Marshal Radsky replied after thinking about it: "At least there are hundreds of thousands, maybe millions. The scene is too chaotic to make effective statistics.
We also accepted tens of thousands of refugees in the early stage. Later, because there were too many people, we feared that it would affect local order. The General Staff ordered the interception.
This is the dereliction of duty of our General Staff. Some time ago, we were all busy with the westward strategy and ignored the concern on the refugee issue.
Now that there are more and more refugees on the borders we control, the frontline forces are really overwhelming, and we only noticed that we called for help by generating electricity. "
Because of the war, the two principalities of Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and the Danube are all under military control. In addition, the Austrian government has not obtained the sovereignty of these regions, so there is no local government.
Since it is military control, these problems naturally fall to the head of the General Staff. As a result, it is clear that one cannot expect a group of officers to be capable of governing the locality, to maintain local stability, and rely on force.
The Austrian General Staff, including Marshal Radsky, ignored the refugee issue and did not report to Franz at all. It wasn't until this time that things broke out that they caught their attention.
Frankly speaking, the General Staff did nothing wrong. If so many refugees were let go, it would be a tragedy on earth.
The order that Austria has managed to establish on the ground is likely to collapse soon.
If we can say that social order can be maintained by increasing the number of troops, then there is really no way to solve the problem of eating.
In this era, hundreds of thousands or even millions of people have to solve the problem of eating without preparing in advance. Where can Franz raise so many supplies in the short term?
Not that there are no supplies, but that it is too late to mobilize so many supplies in the past. You know, the Austrian government has mobilized a lot of food in the past in order to relieve the refugees.
However, these foods are just barely enough to relieve local refugees in the Austrian occupation. Faced with the increase in foreign refugees, there is really nothing they can do.
Franz asked in confusion: "No, with so many refugees, it should have been a shock to our blockade. Why did this problem occur after so many people gathered?"
Marshal Radsky replied: "His Majesty, most of these refugees are old and weak women and children, lack of youth, so when they first encountered the army to intercept, many people chose to retreat.
Now a batch of soldiers have been added to the refugees, and some people have taken the lead in it before they begin to impact our blockade. "
Franz nodded, and with the end of the second Bulgarian war, a large number of soldiers broke out on the Balkans. These soldiers also caused disasters and created a large number of refugees.
It is estimated that until now, there is no place to continue looting. Under these circumstances, these talents have appeared in the refugee ranks.
If no one is leading, even if there are a large number of old and weak women, even if there are many people, they will not dare to impact the borderline. After all, no one speaks of human rights in this era. As long as they dare to strike the blockade, the soldiers will shoot.
Figuring it out, Franz also had a headache. You don't need to ask him to know what kind of tragedy it was. The picture of Yi Zi Er Shi has come to his mind.
But it is even more impossible to put it in. Without enough food, these people are in chaos and will only create more refugees.
This is not the 21st century. The government can mobilize a large amount of materials in the past as long as it is willing. In the current situation of transportation relying on ox carts, how can Franz mobilize a large amount of materials for them in the past?
People are so hungry that they can do everything. Franz does not dare to test the good and evil of human nature. Even in later generations, this is a problem that plagues countries.
It can be said that this is an effort not to please, and can only harvest complaints. The thought of Franz here is a complaint. Since you ignore it, you ignore it. Learn how good the British bureaucracy is in accordance with regulations and know nothing, so he won't have a headache.
Now things are on the bright side, can't help but handle it?
Franz asked: "Prime Minister, what do you think of this issue?"
This is kicking the ball, anyway, Franz can't think of the best of both worlds, so he can only let the cabinet come. If there is a better way, there is no way to end up with the cabinet.
Prime Minister Felix hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, first sending troops to reinforce the front line, in any case will not allow more people to become refugees, and then mobilize supplies from the country for relief."
Franz understood what he said, that is to keep the blockade and finish it. After the supplies have been mobilized and relief is provided, the refugees will be almost dead by then, and the food will be enough.
Marshal Radsky thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, other areas have been closed down. I am afraid that it will be difficult in Bosnia and Herzegovina. There are too many mountains and forests in the area, and I am afraid that it cannot stop the refugee flow.
Chancellor of the Exchequer asked in wonder: "Not only are we encountering this problem, what do they do with the Kingdom of Greece, the Principality of Montenegro, the Ottomans, and the Russians?"
Metternich replied: "The situation in the Kingdom of Greece has sent past officials to report that the idiot of Otto I saw the refugees and thought that the opportunity to increase the population came, and ordered government relief.
As a result, the influx of refugees exceeded their tolerance limit, and the entry of British troops disrupted local order. There has been a mess, and the new Greek government is cracking down on refugees.
The situation is still not optimistic. It is estimated that it will not be long before we ask the three governments for assistance. I very much doubt that the British saw this situation, and they were so relieved at the Paris conference. "
Needless to say the remaining few countries, everyone knows. The Ottoman Empire-controlled area must be a mess, the Sudanese government is not capable of relieving refugees, and Britain and France are not philanthropists and will not help in vain.
Montenegro's poor clanking, they are still fighting the coalition, as long as the refugees are not fools, they will not run over. If the fool ran past, don't think of a good ending.
At this moment Franz began to envy the bad reputation of the Russians. Because of the atrocities of the Russian army, the refugees had no time to hide from them. How could they come forward?
Thanks to this, even the two Principalities of the Danube River controlled by Austria, because the Russians were blocking in front, were not affected by this wave of refugees from the Balkans.
The typical bully is afraid of the hard, the reputation is not bad enough, the means is not cruel enough, but it seems that the relatively wealthy Austria, has become a bad luck.
Let Franz not kill the refugees in name? This is impossible! If it were replaced by the Tsarist government, it is estimated that this order may still be issued.
Franz said ruthlessly: "If the region of Bosnia and Herzegovina can't keep it, then you don't have to keep it. Tell the refugees to let them go to the beach. Only by the beach can we mobilize enough food for rescue."
This is true, transportation inland is too difficult. Even with the Danube, the river's capacity is not unlimited, and priority must be given to ensuring the consumption of garrisons and Russians.
There are still hundreds of kilometers of road to reach the port from Serbia, and there are still many people to be able to survive in the past.
Don't say cruel, hope is better than hopeless. Bosnia is mostly mountainous, and Austria has just controlled it. The assimilation work there has not been smooth, and it is not painful to give up Franz.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Marshal Radsky replied in a low voice.
He knew that this time the emperor was very dissatisfied, but there was no way. The General Staff did not respond in advance and lost the best time to deal with it.
With so many people gathered, the local bark and grass roots are estimated to have been wiped out. It was inevitable that people would be very hungry to impact the blockade. Marshal Radsky could not kill the refugees violently, so only Franz could handle it.
Prime Minister Felix frowned, "His Majesty, these refugees are now being rescued, and how to resettle in the future is also a problem. If they continue to stay in the Balkans, I am afraid it is also a hidden danger."
He was opposed to this kind of relief, and in addition to consuming a lot of financial and material resources, he finally did not receive any gratitude.
Most of the people who can survive in this situation are morally degraded, and those who are not cruel enough cannot survive.
Franz thought for a while and said, "Of course, all of them were repatriated to the Ottoman Empire. When these people arrived, they were immediately shipped away and the people of Bosnia were also packed away.
If the Ottoman Empire refuses to accept them, we will send them all to the African continent as our first set of immigrants to develop the African continent.
The navy immediately chose a suitable location to land, occupied several strongholds on the African continent, and the colonial era in Austria began ahead of schedule.
Organize the ship as soon as possible. It is definitely not so easy to transport so many people over this time. Everyone must be prepared in advance. "
If it is just a refugee, it will not be a problem to stay in the Balkans for resettlement. It's a pity that a large number of smashing soldiers are mixed into it, which instantly becomes a scourge.
In this case, they can only change places to live. With people leaving home and being scattered and settling, when they arrived on the African continent, Franz was not afraid that these people would make trouble.
It is just that the hidden dangers in the BiH region can be solved together. The Austrian government has lost such great efforts, and it is impossible to spend money and effort.
This labor force is used to develop the African continent to be just waste utilization. Slowly rebuilding overseas for a few years, time can dilute everything, and send more priests to teach them.
Let them confess their sins, slowly return to normal life, and finally integrate into the Austrian system. Franz thought so easily.
