Vienna Palace, Franz's troubles have come since news of the fall of Mexico City.
Although Massimiliano I was not seen in the Habsburgs, this did not include Queen Sophie and Grand Duke Carl.
Massimilino is not a good emperor, but he is still a good son. He performed very well in Vienna and was loved by Queen Sophie and Grand Duke Carl.
I haven't heard of anything wrong in Mexico, so they came to inquire about the news. Although Franz has repeatedly ensured that Massimilino is safe and in the Austrian embassy, they are still not assured.
Now all the telegrams related to Austrian Central America, the Queen Mother Sophie has to personally view, and even power Governor Humel in his own name.
This made Franz very upset, but for a reason, he couldn't say anything. The parents love their children so deeply that it is normal to do something extraordinary.
In order to let him live a few days of peace, Franz did not hesitate to choose to tour the country. Of course, it is limited to Europe. Asia, Africa, and the United States are too far away. It is still risky to travel far in this era.
As soon as Franz left, Alexandrovich's European journey entered his last stop, Vienna.
The imperial palace of the Austrian Grand Hotel has finally opened. It's not easy. Since it was built here, it hasn't met more than ten customers, and it is not always possible to open it once a year.
In fact, there is not much difference between opening and closing, and anyway, no room charge can be charged. According to customary rules, the visits between the royal families are arranged by the host.
Of course, Franz hopes to have more visitors, which is also advertising. This is how the Austrian Grand Hotel is pulled up, known as the world's largest hotel.
Although the investment is still far away, the hotel's performance growth rate is still considerable. From opening to now, the annual turnover has tripled, and it is still growing at a rate of 30% to 40% per year.
The palace of the emperor was originally a palace regulation, the degree of luxury is self-evident, and the garden landscape inside is even more unique.
Regarding these beautiful sights, the Crown Prince Alexandrovich who just moved in couldn't get the slightest interest, leaving only a deep sadness.
Naturally, Franz's trip did not need to be explained to the outside world. Alexandrovich mistakenly thought that this was Franz did not want to meet him.
The emperor's words and deeds have political implications. Franz's refusal to meet with him meant that the Russian-Australian alliance had reached its end. For Alexandrovich, this is very bad.
This means that his trip to Europe failed. Although easing relations with European countries, this still cannot offset the impact of the collapse of the Russian-Australian alliance.
The emperor was not there, and the next diplomatic meeting, the Crown Prince Alexandrovich could not raise interest. After a tentative loan proposal was rejected by the Vienna government, the two parties concluded negotiations.
A wonderful misunderstanding led to close contacts between the high-levels of Russia and Austria, and the opportunity to eliminate contradictions was wasted.
This misunderstanding was only revealed when Franz's living records were declassified a century later, and was listed by historians as the largest "political oolong incident" of the 19th century. However, the history of the academia has revived and debates have continued on this topic.
Franz, who was visiting Wurttemberg, naturally didn't think so much. It is impossible that because of Alexandrovich's visit, he turned around and returned to Vienna. It was too shameless, and it was almost the same that Alexander II came in person.
The crown prince had nothing wrong with the crown prince, anyway, Franz left his son in Vienna. Even if he was a little younger, he was also the Austrian crown prince.
To talk about things, there is the Austrian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Now that there are telegrams, Franz does not need to take high-level government officials to travel.
In terms of distance, Württemberg is not far from Vienna. Austria's transportation is developed and it can be done from day to night.
Not only Württemberg, but also the distance between Austria and Europe is not far. Even the farthest island of Cyprus is only over 1,000 kilometers away from Vienna.
This distance, in theory, can be reached in three days. Of course, this is limited to the theory. Under normal circumstances, it takes a dozen days to use ordinary travel tools.
Franz's national cruise certainly does not include an island like Cyprus, for a very simple reason-seasickness.
By train, it will not take more than three days to reach any of Austria's big local cities from Vienna.
This is why Franz was able to come and talk once and for all, and he can return to Vienna in time if there is something.
Facts have proven that the young and vigorous Alexandrovich cannot afford to toss. After staying in Vienna for a week, without seeing Franz return, he scattered his son and returned home.
No one could have imagined that this inconspicuous Alexandrovich's European visit opened the prelude to the collapse of the Russian-Australian alliance.
A wonderful misunderstanding led the Russians to think that the Vienna government had decided to abandon the Russian-Olympic alliance, prompting the Tsarist government to move closer to the British.
This is all a future thing. Franz said this time that it was an inspection. In fact, it meant more to swim.
If inspections really take place, they will not start with these states. Although he was the Emperor of Shenra, he also had little say in the economic development of various states.
The rules of the game are like this. Franz doesn't care. As long as it is determined that the economic development of each state is good, it is enough for him.
As an emperor, as long as Guotai Min'an is achieved, the status will be stable. The ambitionist is always a minority, and at most these people will be arrogant.
Compared with other European countries, the German region is relatively conservative, and Austria is the conservative base. Many new ideas are born here, but they cannot be carried forward here.
The main reason why Paris has become a beacon of the free world and a sacred place of revolution is that the people of Paris are more receptive to new ideas and more emotional than rational.
If anyone studies history, it will be found that France has become a must for European thinkers, and the earliest testing ground for any theoretical idea is Paris.
...
Mexico City, after receiving the notice from Compton ’s holiday, the soldiers who have been holding bread for many days cheered.
The Mexican government has the ability to prevent its citizens from doing business in the Austrian embassy, but it has not the courage to hinder the Austrian embassy's travel.
"Austrian soldiers" appeared in twos and threes on the streets of Mexico. These people are all snakes. Even if they are not native to Mexico City, they have lived there for many years.
When I followed Massimilino I, I got a lot of bad habits. In the Austrian embassy, they naturally did not dare to presumptuously, and now they have no fear of fear.
Of course, this is not to say that they are unpardonable. In fact, these guards were good under the restraint of Massimiliano I, except for their temper.
As the first batch of leave leave, Captain Mickel and several colleagues chose to improve their meals for the first time, and they have had enough days to slap bread continuously.
...
A "bang" sound, a slap on the table. Captain Mikel growled, "What, don't you sell it to us? Why, I'm not giving money?"
The restaurant staff explained eloquently that this did not relieve the anger of Captain Mickel and others, but made them more angry.
This anger is not directed at the waiters, but mainly against the Mexican Republican government, but it is unlucky that he was caught in front of the pond fish.
This restaurant was recommended by Captain Mickel, and now he is very shameless. He raised the gun directly and sneered and said, "Don't talk nonsense, bring me the steak.
The gun rack was around his neck, and the service staff naturally did not dare to refuse, and quickly nodded.
This approach obviously angered the diners, and a few officers-like youths came to the theory. Look at the age of about seventeen or eighteen, it is the time when newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.
"You guys, how can you buy them? People are not willing to do your business, that's their freedom!"
The phrase "miscellaneous" and "freedom" completely angered Captain Mickel. They were royalists, and at the last moment they did not betray Massimilino I, which is enough to prove their position, which is disgusting with liberalism.
Compared to reason, they still prefer to use fists. Without any hesitation, Captain Mikel, who wanted to vent his grievances, immediately started. Soon a few young people who were early birds fell to the ground and mourned.
The fight was over, and finally no one bothered Captain Mickel and others to dine. As for those sent by the Mexican Republican government, they pretended to see nothing from beginning to end.
As long as it doesn't cause a big mess, this little thing, don't bother your superiors. When it comes to foreign soldiers, their superiors are not eligible to deal with them even if they commit a crime.
There is no credit for handling it. If it is handled badly, it may become a scapegoat. As a country that transitions to a semi-colonial society, it is difficult for the Mexican Republican government to leave it alone.
If only that thing had passed, there would not be a small number of clashes between Mexico City and the powers every day. The usual result is that Mexicans suffer.
It's just that the protagonists this time are different. Regardless of their previous identities, they now wear Austrian military uniforms, that is, Austrian soldiers, and the Mexican government can't help them.
However, the middle-aged teenagers who suffered a loss did not agree and left after being injured. A few people did not rest, but were thinking about revenge.
"Cole, this thing can't be so calculated. If they return without revenge, these gangsters will be even more crazy!"
Cole's man asked, "Kend, what are you going to do?"
After wiping the bloodshot corners of his mouth, Kend sneered, "Of course ..." Compared with a gesture of wiping his neck, the conversation between the two came to an abrupt halt.
Don't look at them as young. In fact, they have also been tested by fire and blood. They are members of the radical Republican government.
After a pause, Cole slowly said: "This matter must be cautious, not to reveal the slightest flaw, it is best to give up ..."
...
Captain Mikel, who was still swaying outside, didn't know he had been spotted, and was looking around for fun.
With so many soldiers in the embassy, take turns to rest. Holidays don't come easily, if you miss this time, you can only wait for the next month.
At midnight, the drunken people helped each other and set off on their way home. It's not that they don't want to stay overnight, mainly because their wallets can't stand it.
Just a little bit of army, can not afford such a splurge. Occasional indulgence is okay, life is drunk and dreamy, they are not qualified.
"Bang bang ..."
The sound of gunfire sounded, and several people woke up instantly, and immediately fell to the ground. Immediately took out a gun to fight back in the night.
Thanks to tensions, the Mexican Republican government stepped up alert, and police patrolled with gunshots were called.
Captain Mickel escaped, but his companions were not so fortunate, and when they came out, eight people were killed and injured.
This was just the beginning of the conflict. There were also several soldiers returning home, and suddenly found that their home had been replaced by their master, and fierce clashes also occurred.
In just one day, the group of soldiers on vacation created dozens of shootings in Mexico City, causing dozens of casualties.
The Compton Minister who received the news was not angry and displeased, so there is no need to worry about no excuses for interference. With so many shootings, the Mexican Republican government must give Austria an account.
As for those who died, Minister Compton could only regret that they would get them a fair return. In any case, these people are also Austrian citizens issued by him.
Especially when the house is changed for the owner, these are all "Austrian citizens" who have been robbed of the industry by themselves, and things must not be so.
Minister Compton was a smart man, and the Austrian army had not yet come in, and at this time it was not suitable to stimulate the Mexican government. It would be miserable if they angered others and pulled them all together.
In his opinion, looking for an excuse to intervene and take advantage of the threat of armed Russia to take advantage of the political blackmail of the Mexican Republican government is the best option.
What if they really pushed Mexico through the army?
In order not to over-stimulate the Mexican Republican government, Minister Compton avoided the heavyweight and light-hearted in the beginning, and caught the shootings, allowing the Mexican government to surrender the killer.
The tragedy of ordinary Austrian citizens' property seizures and even annihilation will not be investigated for the time being. No, the Mexican government doesn't even know that these people have become Austrian citizens.
The Minister of Compton was still hesitant to give Austrian nationality to the families of these soldiers. After all, many of them were substandard.
There is no need to hesitate now, they must be Austrian citizens, and even their relatives who died in the Great Purge can become Austrian citizens.
The greater the number of casualties, the more the property will be lost, and the more confident you will be when you ask for compensation in the future.
