Struggle in Russia

Austria is a pit cargo, which is Li Xiao's firm perception. The reason is also very simple. Without the Habsburgs, they would not be humans. Look at the series of **** operations that began in the middle of the 19th century, which fully explained what it means to die without death.

Which country was the worst in the 1848 revolution? Although France and Prussia have also been greatly affected, the basic situation is stable and there is nothing major. In particular, France not only had a relatively small negative impact, but also took advantage of the restoration of Napoleon III and the subsequent Crimean War. All the haze after the defeat of Napoleon the Great also eased the conflict with Russia and successfully improved its international status. .

The same is true for Prussia. Although the king was a little disgraced by the common people, the positive effects brought about by the revolution and the great development of capitalism followed by a step by step succeeded in becoming one of the world's leading industrial powers in the late 19th century.

But when you look at the Austrians, there is also a revolution. Why is the gap so big? Austria is not only relying on its own strengths to determine the national uprisings of Hungary and the Czech Republic. Almost can only watch the success of Hungary and Czech independence.

It can be imagined that if Hungary and the Czech Republic were truly independent, the so-called Austrian empire would become a complete joke. Immediately after that, Croatia, Italy, and even Polish people must learn from the good example of Hungary. When the empire grows larger, only the ancestors will remain The basic game of the Grand Duchy of Austria is almost complete.

In such a grim situation, Nicholas I, an old friend of the Austrian people, generously extended a helping hand, helping the Habsburgs to calm down the rebel independence forces in the country without asking for any return, which would put Austria at risk The Empire pulled back from the cliff.

This "internationalism" spirit is only comparable to that of Louis XVI's assistance to the American War of Independence. It is said that this is a kind of love to rebuild the turmoil. The Austrians or the Habsburgs must have the benefits of Nicholas I and the Russians and unite more closely around the sacred alliance with Nicholas I as the core. Blessed is the same as enjoying the same difficulties. Is the love deeper than the sea?

But what was astonishing was that after Nicholas I waged war with Turkey and the soldiers entered Wallachia and Moldavia again, the Austrians chose to wait and see, and refuse to maintain a united front with Nicholas I.

Of course, this is understandable. After all, we must face the world's top two British and French at the same time. We must not be so impulsive. It is also a reasonable choice to maintain neutrality. But this neutrality of the Austrians made the Russians tickle Nicholas I!

why? Because Prussia also remained neutral at that time, but the Prussians were truly neutral, and it did not embarrass Russia, and even served as a communication channel between Russia and Britain and France.

And there is a reason for Prussian neutrality, that is, when Prussia fell out with Austria, Russia was facing Austria, and it forced the Prussians to sign the Treaty of Ormitz, so the Prussians were completely understandable .

The Austrian's neutrality is simply a knife behind it. Why do you say that? Because the Austrians declared neutrality, they stationed hundreds of thousands of troops in Transylvania and the Russian border. They were ready to make Russia look good.

Where is this to stay neutral? Anyway, at that time Nicholas I was vomiting blood, because Russia had to deal with British and French landings in Crimea, and at the same time, it had to maintain a huge military force on the Russian-Austrian border to cope with the Austrian provocations. In other words, even if Russia is very powerful, it can only use five points to deal with British and French.

Is this Nima a companion of the Divine Alliance? Is it a benefactor of grace? Anyway, since then, Nicholas I directly wrote a few words on the back of the painting of Franz Joseph I in the Hermitage. One can imagine how angry Nicholas I was then.

Therefore, the Austrian people contributed greatly to the breakdown of the Holy Alliance. Of course, after 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, after the death of Nicholas I, the Russians also retaliated in the Prussian War. When the relationship between Prussia and Austria was extremely tense, Austria asked Russia's attitude. Alexander II's answer was that Russia will strictly maintain neutrality.

Then the Austrians thought that Russia had no intention of helping Prussia, and as soon as the war broke out, Austrian talents found that Russia suddenly assembled hundreds of thousands of troops at the border between the two countries. Okay, this is not a pit father!

As a result, when the Austrian ambassador questioned, Duke Alexander Gorchakov and Alexander II replied, "We have n’t learned from what you did in the past, how did you maintain neutrality in that year, and how Russia maintains it now. neutral!"

Anyway, since then, the relationship between Russia and Austria can no longer be restored to the past, from the little friends who fought in a trench to life and death enemies. The root is actually in the Crimean war. If it was not too mean and shameless for Austria, and the Russians were offended, the international pattern in the second half of the 19th century is really hard to say.

But it was the Austrians doing this ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ that led to the complete destruction of the Holy Alliance, leading to Russia ’s complete remorse and hatred for Austria, and then the conflicts and contradictions between the two countries on the Balkan issue became fiercer and worse, and finally finally After the shot in Sarajevo was fully detonated, the Russian Empire, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and the First German Empire collapsed in the end. There was really no winner.

Of course, these have nothing to do with Li Xiao, he only needs to tell Alexander Duke Gorchakov that the Austrians ca n’t be trusted. They are all white-eyed wolves, although now there is no way to pull back Nicola I with his head in the door and let him Regardless of Austria's life and death, that's not at least not as stupid as it is in history. It doesn't help the Austrians for nothing.

Taking this opportunity, at least, the Austrians must make concessions on the issues of Wallachia and Moldavia, and Russia's reasonable and legal control of the duchy is the best policy.

So Li Xiao suggested: "The complete separation of Wallachia and Moldavia and their independence, which not only meets the independence requirements of Wallachians and Moldavians, but is used to Stop the mouths of Britain, France and other countries. "

"Then we will support the pro-Russian Wallachia and the Grand Duchy of Moldavia. It is best to establish our special relations with the two countries in the form of legislation and allow our troops to station in the two countries and enjoy other special powers. This should be our bottom line. ! "
