The neighbors began to prepare for war, and the French government naturally had no choice. At this stage, even if there is no war, the French government can only prepare for it.
Anyway, Napoleon IV did not believe in the so-called good-neighborly friendship. The relationship between France and neighboring countries, once there was an imbalance in power, someone came to the door every minute.
In this era of weak meat and strong food, weakness is the biggest original sin, not to mention that everyone already has hatred?
Since ancient times, military expansion has been regarded as a prelude to war. The French government ’s actions have once again exacerbated everyone ’s panic. For a time, the European continent was full of storms.
...
London
British Foreign Secretary George pointed to the European map on the wall and said, "The plan is still going on smoothly.
Although it did not encourage Austria to send troops to unify the German region, the French had already taken the bait.
Affected by the tension, the Paris government has already begun a major military expansion, and it is impossible to look back at this step.
The only trouble is that there are too many countries involved. The French government's diplomacy is really garbage. No ally has been found, not even the Spanish.
According to the current situation, if we don't help, Austria is likely to form an anti-French coalition after the outbreak of the war, and it will besiege the French with countries such as Belgium, Germany, Switzerland, and West. "
Armament expansion is not a trifling matter, especially when the situation is tense. As soon as the government expanded its army, it released a signal of war to the outside world.
Capitalists will increase investment in military-related fields, and original military-industrial enterprises will also expand production capacity in the shortest time.
France has just erupted with overcapacity and unemployment, and through the war, the enterprise is full of blood and the workers have regained their jobs.
If you want to stop, the capitalists will not agree first, and you ca n’t see the return if you invest in real money. Workers who are hard to reemploy will also not agree.
Driven by interests, war breaks out sooner or later. The French government can decide who to fight and where to start.
Prime Minister Gladstone nodded. The French had no allies. This was the basis for the alliance between Britain and France.
I just want to think that this kind of behavior will cause all neighbors to be vigilant at the same time, which is still somewhat unexpected.
"I remember that the Spanish government is supported by the French. The relationship between France and Spain has been very good in the past ten years, they have no reason to fall to Austria?"
After the outbreak of revolution in Spain, the Bourbon royal family went into exile in France. Napoleon III and the Bourbon dynasty made a deal, at the cost of supporting Alfonso XII's superiority, in exchange for the Bourbon dynasty not to add chaos to him.
After Alfonso XII came to power, the relationship between France and Spain quickly heated up. The outside world has always suspected that France and Spain have a covenant in the dark.
In such a relationship, without particularly great conflicts of interest, the possibility of the two countries turning their heads is very small.
George explained: "French-Spanish relations have been friendly for a while, but the conflict between the two countries is even greater.
Especially after the death of Alfonso XII, the Austrian Grand Duchess Maria Christina regent, Spain's foreign policy has undergone a fundamental change, from the original pro-law to pro-Olympic.
The current relationship between France and Spain can only be maintained on the face, which is far from enough for allies.
Just last week, Austria also provided an interest-free loan of 20 million Aegis to the Spanish government. After receiving the loan, the Spanish government announced the expansion of five infantry divisions for the first time.
It ’s not just Spain. In the past month, Austria has issued loans of varying amounts to Belgium, the German Confederation, and Switzerland.
In this regard, the French government has reacted very slowly. After the incident, they did not take correct measures to win over countries, but instead sent people to warn and threaten. "
As good neighbors, France and Spain have never fought less, and the Habsburg dynasty has also made outstanding contributions in this regard.
But that was a matter of hundreds of years ago, and there is no hatred, and what the Spaniards still remember is the anti-French war.
If the British defeated the myth of the invincible fleet and pulled Spain from the position of overlord at sea, then Napoleon was the terminator of the Spanish sunless empire.
In dozens of countries including Mexico, Central America, Peru, Colombia, Chile, and Paraguay, tens of millions of square meters of land were independent because of the anti-French war.
It is impossible to say that the Spaniards have no grievances, except that France is in a big situation, and Spain ’s weak internal contradictions have piled up and have to endure.
No matter how forgiving, this hatred will not be good in the relationship between France and Spain. When Alfonso XII was alive, the relationship between the two parties was not bad because of the grace of restoration.
After the Austrian Grand Duchess Maria Christina regent, without pro-French monarchs, the domestic anti-French voice naturally rose.
Chancellor of the Exchequer Xiao Zhi Childers: "From this perspective, the French government's approach is not wrong.
Their relationship with their neighbors is not good. If they want to win allies, they must pay a higher cost.
Just because they promised benefits, they would never believe that they are not opponents of Austria.
Their only advantage is the French military ’s illustrious reputation. If they cannot win over these countries, they will shock them.
Anyway, there is a pile of grass, as long as France maintains enough strength, these guys will not dare to act.
What's more, the French government is used to it. If you suddenly let go of all the countries, it will make everyone feel bad. "
It ’s fair to say that Latin American allies are really not France ’s strengths. If you want to compete with Austria on this, it is difficult to have a substantive effect except labor and effort. It is not as effective as force deterrence.
Gladstone frowned. The French were in a worse situation than expected. The deterrence of force was indeed effective. However, if France and Austria were deadlocked on the battlefield, these countries would be the last to crush the camel. straw.
Franz's generosity to his allies is world-famous, especially when he is generous to others, that is absolutely nothing to say.
"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs must find a way to keep countries neutral, otherwise the five nations will join forces and the French will have no chance at all!"
The French are confident that it has been propagated for decades. Senior government officials have grown up listening to this sentence. Subconsciously, the French Army is invincible.
Father, like son.
Gladstone was not so confident in the combat effectiveness of the French Army. In his impression, the French Army is indeed the first in the world, but the first does not mean invincibility.
Ants can also bite the elephant. One-on-one France does not have a certain victory in Austria. If you add a few more opponents, you will not be able to fight.
Britain had to lose both sides, but it was not for Austria to take advantage of the situation, and now it had to pull sides.
Foreign Minister George shook his head: "This is difficult to do, unless the French attack Austria from the Italian region, we have a way to keep countries neutral.
Otherwise, we can only keep Spain neutral, and at most one more Switzerland.
They are neutral countries, and as long as the French do not take the initiative to find things, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is sure to persuade the Swiss government to be neutral. "
There is no way to do things, Fao is due to Belgium and the German Federation. The French want to embezzle their territory, making it impossible for the two countries to be neutral.
Prime Minister Gladstone nodded helplessly. The two countries were originally the younger brothers they supported, and now they have to give up for the benefit of the empire.
Thinking of this, Gladstone got a headache again. Both Belgium and Germany are part of the Gotha dynasty. If the French defeat, it would be a big deal. In case the French won the war, the losses of the Gotha dynasty would be too great.
If he knew that this incident was planned by him, it is estimated that Queen Victoria had hacked him to the heart, and now Gladstone dare not go to the palace.
