Chapter 301: Storm

In accordance with the practice of continental Europe, the next step is the negotiation. In particular, the Vienna system was re-established, and the French had to obey this rule.
Since the French diplomatic note conveyed, Café hastily rushed to Paris to give PR gifts everywhere.
There is still no use for eggs, French bureaucrats are not stupid, knowing what money can be collected, what money can not be collected. Involved in the assassination of the emperor, it is better to participate less.
Foreign Minister Clio said frowningly: "Prime Minister, Li has returned, these people will not let us in."
This is still more subtle. What's more, the sugar coating is closed and the shells are shot back.
In other words, I took the gift, stuffed it into the gift box, and threw it out with great fanfare.
Count on them to stop doing dreams. These things will at best dispel them, and they will have less ammunition when they clamor for war.
There is no way, in order for the emperor to see everyone's loyalty, the slogan must be called. Even the anti-war squads are now clamoring to give the Kingdom of Sardinia some color.
Who asked the investigation results to show that someone had provided help to the assassin and leaked the emperor's whereabouts, but this person had not caught it yet.
In order to avoid suspicion, no one dares to make this political mistake.
Gaffel reluctantly said, "I have no results here either. Napoleon III used the excuse to heal the wounded but did not see the guests. I am afraid this is difficult.
However, we have no choice. Since the French dare not accept it, they give gifts to the representatives of the countries, so don't save money at this time.
Feeding them, even if it is just a word for us at the meeting, it is worth it. "
This is the most trashy and effective way. Now that the Kingdom of Sardinia is unable to exchange interests with other countries, it is even more impossible to affect the diplomacy of various countries.
In this context, it is only possible to buy representatives from various countries. Now European governments are very angry at the assassination, and at the same time, everyone does not want to see France continue to expand.
Including Gafur himself, he was very angry about the assassination, and he didn't like any of the so-called patriots.
If possible, he didn't mind killing those guys directly, a hundred. Regarding the French demanding the punishment of the murderer, Gafur is not prepared to argue at all, as long as it is not enlarged.
He could not stand the demand for the French government to cede land. Originally, the reunification of the Italian region was in the foreseeable future. Now if we cede the land again, there is really no hope.
Clio whispered: "Prime Minister, the French are also conducting public relations, and we are afraid it will be difficult to compete with them.
Austria's representative, Martic, is a Lombard, and he is the representative of the anti-Salites in the Vienna government. The Vienna government sent him as a representative, which is probably related to Fao's treaty.
In this negotiation, the Austrians were afraid that they could not count on it. We even have to worry that France and Austria have agreed to divide us. "
Lombardy is in Italy, but Lombards are not the same as Italians. To be precise, this is an independent nation, a part of the Germanic people, which originated in southern Sweden.
During the independence movement of 1848, the Lombards were divided. Some supported the Vienna government and some stood on the side of the Revolutionary Party.
There is no doubt that Martic can stand high and must support the Habsburg dynasty. As a member of the vested interests, he naturally opposed the unity of Italy.
In the last Osadian war, the invasion of the Sardinian army caused disaster to his hometown. After the pain of the skin, hatred of the Sardinian kingdom became inevitable.
Facing such an opponent, Gafur also had a headache. Want to flicker, do not know where to start.
On National Unity in Italy? People do not consider themselves to be a member of the Italian nation, even if the Lombard cultural tradition is influenced by Italian culture.
This is useless, and now the entire Lombard kingdom is de-Italizing, and has returned to the German cultural family.
After thinking about it for a while, Gafur said cautiously, "This information is very important, and we must immediately inform the British. Tonight, I went to the British Embassy to discuss the measures."
A Frenchman is going to die, and another Austrian is really powerless. In addition to finding the British boss, Cavour is now powerless.
This is not that his personal ability is not strong, it is that the enemy is too strong, the kingdom of Sardinia is too weak, and he is not qualified for equal dialogue.
Now that the British are dying to protect the Kingdom of Sardinia, it is not only a strategic need, but also kidnapped by debt.
After the Osa War, the economy of the Kingdom of Sardinia collapsed, relying on British capital to survive. The Sardinian government naturally borrowed and borrowed. The current Sardinian kingdom can almost be said to be a semi-colonial British.
Tariffs, salt taxes, tobacco and alcohol taxes, railways, and ports were all mortgaged to the British. Once the Kingdom of Sardinia was finished, the tens of millions of pounds lent by the British would all be watered.
Unless the London government has the confidence to allow France and Austria to repay the money, the British consortium will not tolerate the Kingdom of Sardinia.
There is no doubt that neither Napoleon III nor Franz could be the head of this grievance.
This is aggression, not inheritance. Heirs have never been inherited, and no one has heard that an aggressor has to bear debt.
When it comes to huge sums of tens of millions of pounds, the British's face is not easy. To be exact, as long as the interests are involved, the face of the British is not good.
...
On the other side, Martic and French Foreign Minister Auvergne had a happy meeting. Under the premise that the Vienna government supports the French government's annexation of the Kingdom of Sardinia, it is difficult for the two to talk about each other.
In return, the French government promised to open several overseas colonial ports to supply the Austrian navy.
Previously, the Vienna government had reached agreements with the West, Portugal, and the Netherlands. With this agreement with the French, the Austrian Navy was able to enter any ocean in the world.
Strategically, this means that the Austrian navy's globalization strategy has taken a step forward.
Of course, the French will gain more. Now as long as Napoleon III can withstand the pressure of European countries, he can eat the Kingdom of Sardinia.
Then, they slowly suppressed the rebellion. Anyway, French man-made anti-experience is rich, communicate with the Italians, maybe it will be able to burst into a new spark.
It doesn't matter if you can't resist the pressure, at least the road to the British-French alliance is broken. The arrogant French cannot always be a younger brother to the British.
Especially after harming their core interests, even if Napoleon III pro-British, the two countries will stand up in political diplomacy.
At the British Embassy in France, the atmosphere is very weird.
In order to provide a platform for the Kingdom of Sardinia, British Foreign Secretary Thomas personally came to the Paris meeting, and he arrived in advance.
Thomas asked seriously: "Prime Minister Cavour, are you sure what you just said is true?"
He couldn't help but carelessly, if France and Austria reached an agreement to divide the Kingdom of Sardinia, they would be passive. Except for a few throats, the London government was powerless.
The only way is to do it in advance and undermine the Franco-Austrian joint venture, or join forces with European countries to force the two countries to make concessions.
Either outcome is not what the London government wants to see. As for the Kingdom of Sardinia, their end is very obvious, it is nothing more than how much to lose.
Diplomacy failed, and all family members were lost. If diplomacy succeeded, the bleeding ended. It is impossible to assassinate the emperor without paying a price, the French face still has to give.
Cuffell said with a sad face, "Mr. Thomas, how could I be kidding about this kind of thing?"
This was the worst situation, and he didn't want to see it, how could it be fabricated out of thin air? The news of the charcoal burning party assassin was arrested in Vienna, neither of them knew it, otherwise the two would not be confused about the Vienna government's approach.
Without this excuse, Franz, even if he wanted to count the French, would not have been able to do so smoothly.
The voice of the Vienna government against the indulgence of France is not small, even Franz cannot ignore everyone's voice.
Things were different after the assassins were arrested. For political correctness, everyone stands on the opposite side of the Kingdom of Sardinia.
Thomas lingered for a few steps, then said: "The Austrian government must have changed something. Not long ago, our ambassador to Vienna heard news that the voice of the Austrian government advocating restricting French expansion still dominated.
With the old fox of Metternich, he could not fail to know the threat of letting France expand.
In the previous Osa war, Austria had the opportunity to annex the Kingdom of Sardinia, and they all gave up. This proves that the Austrian government has no ambitions towards you.
Now that the Austrian government hasn't changed boundaries at all, none of the cabinet members has changed, and the political stance cannot change so quickly. "
Thomas's analysis is very thorough, and political positions cannot be changed at will, which is also accompanied by the concept of governance. Under the stable framework of the Austrian government, it is even more unlikely that things will change.
