Chapter five hundred and sixty-three: the surrender of the Austrian Empire
"us……"
Richard Metternich's confidence was somewhat insufficient. After thinking over and over again, he humbly pleaded to Jérôme Bonaparte: "Actually, my father and I also hope to stand with the French Empire! But,
We need some time to convince the Austrian Empire to come to an agreement!"
To be fair, Jerome Bonaparte has really had a good attitude towards the Austrian Empire in the past two years.
He not only solved the negative impact of the forced occupation of the Danube Principality for the Austrian Empire, but also gave them enough time to prepare.
It can be said that he is the "reborn parent" of the entire Austrian Empire. (Jerome Bonaparte considers himself)
Even though Jérôme Bonaparte treated his relationship with the Austrian Empire with "sincerity", he still received a lukewarm attitude from the Austrian Empire.
If he had not been concerned about the Crimean War and Germany's internal balance, Jerome Bonaparte would have dealt a heavy blow to the Austrian Empire.
"I don't want to hear these useless words anymore!" Jerome Bonaparte said to Richard Metternich with a tough attitude: "If the Austrian Empire is really willing to stand with us, then I
It can be guaranteed that you will get your due seats in the new international system! If the Austrian Empire is not willing..."
A sneer appeared on Jerome Bonaparte's lips, "The Austrian Empire must consider the consequences! I believe that this is definitely not the result you want to see!"
Facing the threat of Jerome Bonaparte, Richard Metternich, whose blood had not subsided, said impulsively again: "Your Majesty! Even if your empire completely defeats the Russian Empire, that does not mean that you
Able to do whatever they want throughout Europe! Besides, the Russian Empire only lost two battles!"
"Yes! The Russian Empire is indeed very big!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded and acknowledged Richard Metternich's words, and then responded coldly to Richard Metternich: "But this is nothing like the Austrian Empire.
What does it matter! Does it mean that the Austrian Empire hopes that the Russian Empire will win this war? Or maybe you are still hoping that the relationship between the Russian Empire and the Austrian Empire can return to the state before the war!"
Jerome Bonaparte's questioning made Richard Metternich's face become increasingly ugly. He understood that the relationship between the Russian Empire and the Austrian Empire would never return to the state before the war.
Since the Austrian Empire issued war threats to the Russian Empire to force the Russian Empire to withdraw from the Danube Principality in order to protect the interests of the Danube Principality, the relationship between the Russian Empire and the Austrian Empire has broken down.
Once the Russian Empire wins the final victory, the first country it will liquidate is the Austrian Empire.
Richard Metternich really couldn't imagine how the Russian Empire would treat them after its victory. The greedy character of the Russian Empire would probably make the Austrian Empire lose its skin.
For Richard Metternich, neither the Russian Empire nor the French Empire were actually suitable objects to rely on, but if he had to choose one country to rely on among them, he would rather choose the French Empire.
Compared with the Russian Empire, although the French Empire is despicable, morally corrupt, and has no scruples in doing things, at least it is not as greedy as the Russian Empire, and judging from the current situation, they have more force than the Russian Empire.
Much stronger.
A boss can be despicable, morally corrupt, and renege on his word, but he cannot be without force.
As long as you have strong martial arts and are willing to stand up for your subordinates, you are a good boss.
On the contrary, if you do not have enough force to rely on and still love to show off your power all day long, then no matter which country you are, it will subconsciously stay away from you.
"Of course we don't want to see the Russian Empire win this war!" Richard Metternich quickly distanced himself from the relationship with the Russian Empire.
"Then what do you want to see? Both the French Empire and the Russian Empire will suffer defeat in Crimea?" Jerome Bonaparte asked rhetorically.
If this is really the case, that would be great. Richard Metternich thought to himself.
"We sincerely hope that the French Empire can win this war!" Richard Metternich said sincerely to Jerome Bonaparte.
"Ambassador Richard, don't deceive me with such words!" Jérôme Bonaparte showed an impatient expression, and he loudly accused: "I know you must be thinking in your heart: If the French Empire and the Russian Empire
If both sides really lose in this war, that would be great! Let me tell you, your idea is impossible!
If the French Empire and the Russian Empire are really both losing, then what can you do to resist the Kingdom of Prussia?
You don’t really think that the Kingdom of Prussia will willingly stay within the German Confederation and act as a thug for the Austrian Empire!”
Jerome Bonaparte's words made Richard Metternich realize that the diplomatic dilemma facing the Austrian Empire was indeed more serious than he imagined.
The Kingdom of Prussia in the north is eyeing the Austrian Empire, and the Kingdom of Sardinia in the west is also ambitious towards them!
If Russia and France both lose, who will suppress these two guys who are ready to make a move?
Can the Austrian Empire alone really defeat them?
Thinking of this, Richard Metternich felt an unprecedented pressure, and he retorted in a low voice: "The Kingdom of Britain will never allow the Kingdom of Prussia to destroy the balance of the European continent!"
"Kingdom of Britain?" Jerome Bonaparte looked at Ambassador Richard Metternich in front of him in shock. Now he was wondering whether the ambassador in front of him said this on purpose or because his brain was burning.
Broken: "You expect a country with an army of less than 100,000 (referring to the British Kingdom's standing forces in Europe) to stand up for you! I admit that their navy is indeed powerful, but their army... forget it
, I’d better show you something!”
Jerome Bonaparte opened the drawer and took out a document and handed it to Richard Metternich: "Read it yourself!"
Richard Metternich took the document and looked through it with a blank expression. After a while, Richard Metternich's expression was also shocked, "This is impossible!"
"This is the Kingdom of Britain that you have been dreaming of!" Jerome Bonaparte shrugged. "If you still don't want to believe it, you can send military observers to check it out. Or you can come with me!"
"You...you are going to Crimea!" Richard Metternich said in shock.
"That's right!" Jerome Bonaparte shrugged and replied to Richard Metternich: "But that will have to wait until after the military parade is over!"
"Do you want to have a military parade?" Richard Metternich asked again.
"We have achieved such impressive results in Sevastopol. It would be unreasonable not to celebrate!" Jerome Bonaparte responded to Richard Joseph, and then asked Richard Meter
Asked whether his (Jerome Bonaparte) brother Franz Joseph is willing to come to Paris to participate in the military parade. "If my brother Franz can come, it will definitely make the relationship between our two countries better."
Go up a floor."
After reading the dark history of the British army in the Crimean battlefield, Richard Metternich no longer looked forward to the Kingdom of Britain. After all, the combat effectiveness of an army determines the status of a country. The Army of the Kingdom of Britain obviously
Nor was it able to give the Austrian Empire its final protection.
"If the Austrian Empire is willing to be bound to France, will France really speak up for the Austrian Empire? Even if the Kingdom of Prussia and the Russian Empire work together to deal with the Kingdom of Prussia!" Richard Metternich asked Jerome Bonnet
Badao.
"Although I have said this to you countless times, here today, I can assure you again. As long as the French Empire still exists in this world, and as long as I am still the emperor of the French Empire, then I will
We will always stand firmly on the side of the Austrian Empire!" Jerome Bonaparte said to Richard Metternich in a confident tone: "Besides, the Kingdom of Prussia and the Russian Empire, one was defeated by the French Empire, and the other was defeated by the French Empire.
Countries that the French Empire is about to defeat. Will France still be afraid of them?"
"I feel relieved to have you say this!" Richard Metternich felt a little more at ease, and then assured Jerome Bonaparte that their monarch Franz Joseph would definitely attend Jerome Bonaparte's meeting.
Military parade held by Tom Bonaparte.
"I will go to the train station myself to meet him!" Jerome Bonaparte said to Richard Metternich.
"By the way, Your Majesty, I would like to take the liberty to ask, who else did you invite to this military parade?" Richard Metternich asked Jerome Bonaparte.
"Queen Victoria, King Victor Emmanuel, King William I of Württemberg, King Ferdinand II (Kingdom of Two Sicilies)..." Jerome Bonaparte listed the invited kings one by one.
name.
Of course, most of the kings have not promised Jérôme Bonaparte yet, and some have not even told him yet?
However, Jérôme Bonaparte had to show off his bullshit first. He believed that those kings would never disobey the rising French Empire.
After hearing that so many kings had agreed to Jerome Bonaparte's invitation, Richard Metternich lowered his guard. He believed that Jerome Bonaparte would never live in front of many kings.
However, Richard Metternich never imagined that Jerome Bonaparte's military parade would be a large-scale fire ceremony, and that his emperor would become "the most beautiful boy" in this fire ceremony.
