Chapter 467: Have their own calculations

The "chicken killer monkey" is not so easy to operate. The chicken that is killed first does not agree. If the butcher is not skilled enough, the chicken may fly.
When it comes to politics, no one is a fool. Everyone is in a circle. Who doesn't have a few secrets?
The news of the Austrian delegation's arrival is not a secret at all. Since the Vienna government wants to annex Transvaal and the Orange Free State, under normal circumstances, it is necessary to attract these powerful factions.
Don't think that they are anti-Austrians in politics, they really have deep hatred with Austria, and they will die to the end.
With the exception of a few middle-age two boys, the anti-Austrian anti-Austrian fritters are only politically needed. There are people who can make a profit by joining Austrian Africa. Naturally, some people's interests are damaged, and it is impossible to meet the interests of all people.
Those who have suffered are naturally opposed to mergers. Crying children have milk to eat, and both Chinese and Western are common. How can you get benefits if you don't cry?
In order to gain more benefits, anti-Austrians were born. There are numerous links between pro-Austrians and anti-Austrians, even for betting on both ends.
Not everyone can predict that Austria's expansion will be so fast. Before they could react, Austria had arrived at their doorstep to discuss the merger.
If you want to make a U-turn immediately, it must be too late. Anti-Austrians also have a background, such as secretly collaborating with British and Portuguese.
The tragedy is that the Austrian continent is now very powerful, the Portuguese are completely afraid to make inferior positions, and the British also do not have enough strength to suppress Austria.
The general trend is not something that can be reversed by individuals. Many people are ready to change jobs and wait for the Vienna government to bid.
The plan did not change quickly. Viscount Fickney, who led the operation, did not follow the rules at all. After attracting pro-Austrians, he stopped acting.
Even the restless ones were delivered to the door, but were turned away. Viscount Fickney had no intention of accepting them.
At this time, the situation in Transvaal and the Orange Free State also changed, and the pro-Austrians suddenly launched a political offensive against them.
Smart people know that the storm is coming. As the wrong team this time, the danger is approaching them. The Pro-Austrians are not a monolith. It is also normal for several anti-Olympic elements to lurk, and news leaked.
Looking at the information in his hand, William, one of the anti-Austrian political leaders, was furious. Isn't that just a few slogans, so as to yell and kill?
Although they are "anti-Austrian", they have actually stayed on propaganda, but no one dares to really provoke Austria in their work.
Weak countries have no diplomacy, and this universal international rule is common in South Africa. "Anti-Austrian" is almost the same, if they are the last to be unlucky in Upper Austria.
This time it's different. It's not that they are going to go against Austria, but that Austria is going to use their heads to make a difference.
William is now in a dilemma. It is too late to jump back. It takes time to change his political stance. Obviously, the enemy will not give him this time.
The Austrians want to kill Liwei, and those who fall into the arms of Austria need to use their heads as names. At a critical moment, William had to think about the way back.
At this time he remembered the British, who had contacted him not long ago, but the situation at that time was far worse than it is now, and William was unwilling to take risks.
After hesitating, William decided to try again: "Raul, immediately inform Scoman, Field, Lanks, Tyron and a few old friends. We have a banquet tonight."
The Republic of Transvaal is not big, it is a new country, the upper circles are even smaller, and the struggle for rights is far less intense than imagined by the outside world.
Despite political differences, William and these pro-Olympic leaders speak. Now he wanted to get out of his body and needed these people to help.
If he could retreat, William would not mind giving up some of the benefits as the price of the wrong team.
Servant Raul answered, "Yes, Mr. William!"
At the same time as tempting, William was also planning for the worst. After Raul left, he sent someone to contact the British secretly.
As a cosmopolitan country, the Vienna government has a face, and even if it is to kill others, it is impossible to take action directly.
An outrageous charge is indispensable, and the anti-Austrians headed by William are not without strength. Even if they have high-level government agencies in Austria, they need time to collect evidence.
This has created opportunities for anti-Austrians. In the face of the crisis of life and death, people are often the ones with the best potential.
Fickney watched the internal fighting between Transvaal and the Orange Free State with cold eyes. He wouldn't care if the anti-Austrians would take risks.
As the earliest colonist in Austria, Viscount Fickney was not afraid of war. Even if the anti-Austrians and the British were linked together to overthrow the rule of Transvaal and the Orange Free State, he was fearless.
The African continent is not very peaceful these years, and Fickney's representation in Austria is not unprepared.
Recently, a large number of Austrian caravans have entered Transvaal and the Orange Free State, but not all come to do business.
If you are paying attention, you will find that all the members of the caravan are aggressive and the escorted goods are not ordinary goods. Some sealed boxes are a cannon.
Some of these people are troops stationed in Austrian Central and South Africa, and more of them are private aristocrats. Owner of mines like Viscount Fickney, if you do n’t have a few hundred private troops, would you like to go out and meet people?
Everyone is well-informed, and nobles who are far away are beyond reach, but the nobles nearby are not the same. How can such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity be brought to life?
If it is resolved peacefully, it will be an armed exercise. In case the situation gets out of control and needs to be resolved by force, it is military power delivered to the door.
Many people are expecting the British to come over and give them a record. This is not their arrogance, but really strength.
Most of the African colonies in Austria were fought by these noble private forces. In the African jungle, the combat effectiveness of these troops is definitely the best in this era.
If the government forces were to rely solely on Austrian troops, there would be no way to control less than half of the African continent.
With the vast and sparsely populated African continent, Austria has no way to set up administrative institutions everywhere. Balancing aristocracy is the cheapest way to rule.
Anyway, as long as the big nobles are suppressed, such small and medium nobles who have hundreds of private troops do not need to be afraid.
In addition to these troops, there are also a large number of German immigrants there. Once the war breaks out, nobles can recruit young people on the spot.
With thousands of veterans as the backbone and a group of young people, a tens of thousands of troops can be quickly organized. Whoever hits who then will not necessarily.
Franz's abandonment of the plan to occupy British South Africa does not mean that the colonial nobles also gave up. Many people in Cape Town are salivating.
The emperor refused to let the war begin, and everyone couldn't bear the responsibility to provoke the war. Naturally, they could not take the initiative to launch an attack, but this did not mean that they could not induce the British to attack.
If the British invaded, the responsibility of the war would not be with them. Fighting for the benefit of the empire, Franz will only reward them.
Viscount Fickney is one of the hawks and nobles, and advocates that all European countries be expelled and Austria be dominated by the entire African continent.
Not to mention whether it can be achieved, it is always good to have a goal. Austria's strength on the African continent gave them ambitions.
Calculating military power on the African continent alone, Austria has exceeded the total of all countries. Of course, this does not mean that Austria has absolute advantages over other countries, and Austria is also in a disadvantage in some areas.
For example, in South Africa, Austria has no fear of any of the British, British and Portuguese. If the British and Portugal join forces, the situation changes.
Many people in Rabbit's Heart have a heart. Once Austria launches an attack on a colony with owners, countries are likely to put aside contradictions and unite.
The original World War I is a classic case. After the rise of the German and German empires, they did not do a good job in diplomatic work and their aggressive behavior styles turned the conflicting Britain, France, and Russia into allies.
Although Franz suppressed domestic expansionism, there was no way to stop the people from deliberately digging to entice the British to attack.
This can also be regarded as a replica of the fishing law enforcement. If the power is exposed to light, the British will definitely not dare to come.
It's different now. Whether it's the Austrian aristocracy, the young Pretoriaus with a ghost, or the anti-Austrians, they all need the British to attack.
These people are deliberately covering up, and pro-Austrians are even less likely to run to report to the British. Moreover, many people just realized that something was wrong, but did not know that it was a trap for the British.
Many people dare not think about the idea of ​​"battle the Olympics". Viscount Fickney was not prepared to provoke a full-scale war between the two countries. They still knew it and knew that their navy was really not an opponent of the Royal Navy.
From the beginning, they did not hang the flag of Austria. The main force of the battle was aristocratic private forces. They only had to wear the vests of the Boer Republic and the British PK.
Even if things were exposed, it was a noble lord and the British fighting, which does not mean that the country to which they belong also had to fight the British.
When the emperor and the French fought the war, the aristocrats of the Shinra Empire could neutralize the government. Now that the noble lords fought with the British, the imperial government can naturally also be neutral.
After the battle was won, the Boer Republic occupied British South Africa, and then created a reason for the Empire to annex the Boer Republic and inherit this part of the heritage.
Without tearing the skin, the British are at best protesting or waiting for revenge, and the situation is still under control.
It doesn't matter if the battle is lost. It was lost by Transvaal and the Orange Free State. What does it have to do with Austria?
It ’s a big deal that the Vienna government came forward to mediate the conflict, and the British accepted it. If it refused, it would n’t matter if a large group of aristocratic private soldiers came with dry food and continued to die with the British.
Of course, these military achievements must be acknowledged by Franz, and the rewards that should be given are not small, and the loss of the nobles by the Vienna government must be made up in the end.
...
In Cape Town, Governor Delphi is now very depressed. The London government has just announced the cancellation of the operation, and the Boers have come to cooperate.
As a governor with ideals, Delphi did not want to be a salted fish. He also wanted to make a brilliant contribution to enter the centre of rights in London.
"What do the Portuguese say, are they interested in Transvaal?"
Governor Delphi asked with concern. Now that Austria has not completed the annexation of the Boer Republic, everyone still has their own means.
In order to ensure foolproofness, he also planned to join the Portuguese to take the lead in the first step to guaran the Republic of Distributi, resulting in the established facts.
Marco, in charge of foreign affairs, waved his hands, and said in an impassive tone: "Sorry, Your Excellency.
The Portuguese explicitly rejected us, which may be related to the recent situation in their country. The Portuguese government ordered the colonies not to provoke the incident without authorization. "
During this period, the situation in Portugal has begun to be unstable. The forces of liberals and republics are constantly growing, and King Louis is almost out of control.
When something goes wrong inside, naturally dare not give birth. In case of failure, it will be another political storm.
The Boer Republic looked good, but just thinking about the Austrians behind the scenes, the Portuguese colonial government in Mozambique lost interest.
This answer made Governor Delphi very dissatisfied. He was also thinking of sharing the benefits of the Portuguese and wooing them together to curb the expansion of the Austrians.
No need now, since the Portuguese did not dare to go, he did it himself. The London government only cancelled its actions against Austria, but did not say that the Boer Republic could not fight.
These two little beans were not in his heart at all. In the past two years, the Boers relied on Austria, and their arms were abandoned.
"Swords and guns go into the warehouse, and Ma Fang Nanshan" is not there yet, but the national military training is really not much. The largest armed force in the Bur Republic is a group of police.
The standing army thing is not a small country with a population of more than one hundred twenty thousand, and it can afford it. During the war, it will temporarily recruit young people.
Governor Delphi frowned, and said dissatisfied, "Forget it, since the Portuguese do not know how to stand up, let them regret it in the future!"
Now we can do it ourselves. Austria's garrison in Central and South Africa is only over one thousand people, and even if it is temporarily recruited, it will only be three or five thousand.
Even if the Austrians want to intervene, they have to wait for their Congolese reinforcements to arrive. At present, there are no signs of Austria's deployment of troops.
It took at least two months for the Austrians to gather enough troops to intervene after we took action.
Two months is enough for us to defeat the Boers. In the event of an accident, most of us will immediately stop and republic of Austria with the Austrians. "
It looked imposing, but in fact Governor Delphi was still a little stunned. The failed expedition a few years ago was still deep in his mind.
Colonel Garrison Major General Friedman immediately assured: "Please be assured, Your Excellency, we are 100% sure that we can defeat this family of dogs."
The Boers were originally expelled from Cape Town by the British to Transvaal and the Orange Free State. They were naturally confident of defeating Major General Friedman.
