Chapter 286: Have their own calculations

The sudden debt crisis hit the Sudanese government. Now that this claim has been transferred to the hands of the Austrians, it is not so simple to settle accounts.
To repay the money, you must have money first. Obviously, after the Balkans have been lost, the Sudanese government's finances are all over.
More than 28 million Aegis is about 14 million pounds, which is equivalent to 102.48 tons of gold. If you add a messy late payment fee, this number will increase.
There is no doubt that even if the pot is sold for iron, the Sudanese government cannot afford such a huge sum of money.
Unless the Vienna government is willing to accept paper money, even the British and French would not be able to lend them so much gold to fill the holes.
Abdul Mejd I said with a grimace, "The Austrians are extorting, and we must not let their plot succeed!"
Everyone lowered their heads as much as possible to reduce their sense of existence, so as not to be stung by the pond fish. This is a lesson learned. For example, in the previous government, half of the ministers lost their heads.
Don't look at the later generations' good evaluation of the reforms of Abdul Mejid I. In essence, he was still a feudal emperor. The failure of the Near East War and the loss of Constantinople fell on the last unlucky egg. Then he was wiped out.
This is also one of the reasons for the outbreak of the civil war. In the face of such a monarch, it is not enough to be careful. This is the fine tradition of the Ottoman Empire, and the barbarism that was preserved from the ancestors.
Abdul Mejd I rebuked dissatisfied: "Why don't you talk? Didn't you hear what I said? You are the Minister of Foreign Affairs, tell me what the Ministry of Foreign Affairs plans to do next?"
Knowing his name, Ade knew that he couldn't escape, and replied stubbornly, "Sir, the Austrians are prepared.
We have just received news that a large-scale rebellion broke out in India, the energy of the British was restrained, and they were unable to interfere with their operations in the short term.
The French seemed to have reached a tacit agreement with the Vienna government, and Austria abandoned its ambitions for Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia in exchange for their acquiescence to the Austrian action. "
The news was indeed just received. The news was notified to him by the British. Gathering information is too far away for the Sudanese government.
Abdul Mejd I was speechless with a half-hearted anger. He originally thought that with the support of English and French, he could be tough and pretend to be a force. The reality told him very cruelly. Silly.
Seeing that he was in trouble, Mr. Aad quickly remedied: "Her Majesty, don't worry. The indigenous rebellion in India is just a group of black people. It won't be long before the British can calm down the rebellion.
The London government will not watch the Austrians expand their power. We just have to delay for a while until they suppress the rebellion ... "
Without waiting for him to finish, Abdul Mejd I interrupted: "Don't dream, as long as there is a compromise between the Vienna government and the British, we will be sold.
The importance of India to the British is self-evident, so why not sacrifice our interests in order to prevent the Austrians from making a ghost?
Open your eyes and look at the world map. Is the Russian far from India? Whether through Persia or Afghanistan, the Russians can support the unrest in India.
With regard to the relationship between Britain and Russia, what the Tsarist government will do, as long as it is normal people know.
If the Austrians and the Russians stood together, the British would lose a lot if they could suppress the rebellion.
On the Indian issue, the British have no allies. If the French do not give them hind legs, even if they are friends, can they count on the Paris government to support them? "
Everyone can see this problem, but as a wise man, it must not be displayed in front of the emperor. This opportunity must be reserved for the performance of Abdul Mejid I.
The man under his hand severely criticized the meal, and Abdul Mejd I was in a much better mood, and began to seriously think about what to do next.
The goal of the Vienna government is already a for the Sudanese government. Neither the series of islands nor Libya can bring value to the Sudanese government.
Economically, the rule of these areas is basically to protect the capital. If you encounter good weather and good years, you will gain a little at most.
Strategically, these islands are still very important. Unfortunately, the Sudanese government cannot afford the navy. Without a strong navy, the so-called strategic value is a joke.
Ade asked indefinitely: "Sir, then we and the Austrians continue to negotiate?"
Abdul Mejd I thought for a while and said, "Of course we have to continue the talk. Delay the time first, and how long it will take.
It is really impossible to keep it going, so as much as possible to preserve our interests, even if it is to be sold, then we must strive for a good price.
At least not less than the price in the Balkans, we do not recognize these claims, you have to pay Austrian cash! "
Ade's answer: "Yes, Your Majesty!"
This paradoxical decision is obviously not so easy to implement, or even impossible to implement. No matter how good it is at the end, Sudan cannot be satisfied.
I didn't want to lose the land, it was because of his face, that Abdul Mejid I didn't want to carry the reputation of the traitor, not that he valued the land.
At the same time, he wants to sell a part of the land in exchange for a sum of money to ease the government's financial crisis and suppress the disorderly party in the country.
After all, Austria is just a disease of mange, and it is only the interests of the Ottoman Empire that they are planning for. Otherwise, the domestic chaos is the one who really wants them.
...
St. Petersburg
After the Tsarist government received news of the Indian rebellion, the first reaction was that the opportunity came.
No ambitious country in the world has no jealous British who dominates India, let alone a greedy bear.
After eating a long meal and a long wisdom, the Tsarist government became cautious after a war in the Near East, and lack of money was a serious injury.
Now their finances are not very good. The newly-occupied Balkans territory has not yet emerged from the war. Originally, it was hoped that wealthy Constantinople would make up for the financial shortcomings.
The post-war reconstruction work is still going on. If you want to return to the pre-war level, it will be impossible without more than ten or twenty years.
Because of the war, the Tsarist government owed another debt, Nicholas I still had a face, and he couldn't do anything with his account.
This is the price of fighting for hegemony, and their international credibility would have been unrelenting. If they relied on it again, the results of their painstaking efforts for decades would be ruined.
Without credibility, no one would follow them. Originally, the tsarist government did not have a few younger brothers. If it was tossed again, the country that shook its flag would not be found.
Nicholas I asked: "The opportunity is here, what do you think we should do now?"
Treasurer Aristanli Rhode said, "His Majesty, if we want to seize India, we must first seize Afghanistan, or it will be easy for the enemy to cut off the back road.
The strength of the British is not weak, and Indian indigenous people can't delay it for long. When we raise funds and take Afghanistan, the British may have suppressed the rebellion long ago.
It is better to directly support the Indian rebellion and provide the rebels with weapons and equipment and military instructors to let them consume the strength of the British.
India's population is as high as 300 million, and as long as one percent is mobilized, the British can only leave the area bleakly. "
This is the most cost-effective way. The Tsarist government really has no shortage of weapons and equipment. It bought and bought during the Near East War. Now that the disarmament regimen is rested, the warehouse is almost full.
It would be in their interest to send all the rags in the warehouse to India, and it would be in their interest to mess up the British. Maybe they could make a lot of money.
Foreign Minister Karl Wollsall objected: "Duke Astanley Rhodes is now the best opportunity to seize India.
We have already attracted the Persians. As long as the Afghans are attracted again, and everyone forms a coalition to attack India, the British cannot stop them.
If you miss this opportunity and want to capture British India, it will not be so simple. "
Chancellor of the Exchequer Aristanli Rod asked: "Marquis Karl-Walsell, things are not so simple. Even if your foreign ministry is able to persuade the Afghans to stand with us, what about the war funding?
To seize India, the British will definitely be desperate, at that time it will become a full-scale war between the two countries, and the war funds to be consumed will only be more or less than the Near East War.
Just after winning the Near East War, we can run mice in the warehouse of our Ministry of Finance. Where do you ask us to raise so much money for the war? "
"This is a problem with your Treasury, whether it is raising taxes, issuing war bonds, or international loans, and there are many ways to raise money," Foreign Minister Karl Wollsell said without buying it.
After capturing India, the world hegemony of the Russian Empire was established. At this critical juncture, I am sure His Excellency Astanley Rhodes will certainly be able to come up with a solution. "
Aristanli Rhode stared at Cal-Wassell with a sullen expression on his face and said indifferently: "It is impossible, even if all the methods are used, we cannot raise such a large sum of money in a short time! "
...
Nicholas I scolded angrily: "Enough, you two idiots, shut me up!"
How could it be possible to hide his eyes from singing so clearly?
Finance Minister Aristanli Rhodes said that there was no money, and the financing method mentioned by Foreign Minister Karl Worsser ultimately meant one thing: Now that the country has no money, it ca n’t raise money. If you want to fight, you can solve it first. Let's talk about financial issues.
As soon as Nicholas I's idea of ​​sending troops rose, he was wiped out. The labor division's expedition to India is not so easy. No money is only one aspect, and logistics is also a big problem.
