Holy Roman Empire

Chapter 1023: unintelligible capital

Views:

The spring breeze is blowing, and everything begins to recover. Under the sunlight, the withered toon tree spit out fragrant red buds again, as if telling the reincarnation of history.

The drills before the military parade began. Seeing the troops gathered from all over the world, Schlieffen was not happy at all.

Regardless of whether it is an officer corps or an ordinary soldier, there is no essential difference in walking in the phalanx.

Although the Prussian army is elite, the troops participating in the military parade are not sloppy. It is impossible to stand out on the shoulders of others.

"Unconventional", that is completely overthinking. All the parade links are set up in advance, and the troops participating in the review only need to execute according to the plan.

"Military orders are like mountains" is not a joke. You can play new tricks on your own initiative. No matter what the result is, a military court must go to court.

Shi Lifen wanted to attract the emperor's attention, but he was not prepared to do it by committing suicide. If you really screw up the National Day military parade, not only will you be finished, but the troop numbers will be cancelled.

No matter how brilliant the Prussian army was in the past, they were only a small part in the current defense system of the Holy Roman Empire.

It is purely because there are not many of them, and there are not many without them. The Holy Roman Empire, with a population of 130 million, has established absolute dominance on the European continent.

If there is just no way to attract the emperor's attention, that's all. After all, the odds of such a thing are inherently low, and they have a backup plan.

What made Schlieffen even sadder was that among the many troops who arrived in Vienna, they became the most shabby existence. If that counts as attention-getting, then they really succeeded.

The armies of other states came in armored vehicles and looked very imposing, but the Prussian army came on horseback.

Although the cavalry has not withdrawn from the stage of history, the torrent of steel has become the main line of future development. In particular, countries that have personally experienced the anti-French war have strengthened their determination to develop armored tanks.

Chasing hot spots is human instinct. Whether it is a big country or a small country, those who keep the army have made a bunch of new toys for themselves to support their appearance.

If it is not prohibited by the traffic control department, it is estimated that some people will come here with planes and tanks.

In any case, the number of people participating in the military parade in each state is not large, from a few to a hundred people, and the means of transportation are the same.

In this case, of course, how the scenery came. After all, everyone wants face, and in front of the people of the whole country, they can't be ashamed.

You must know that the film has been born, as the first military parade of the Holy Roman Empire, it is necessary to retain the video data. Once recorded, it is an eternal stain.

As it turns out, this is completely overthinking.

Aircraft cannons, tank armor, the Central Army is responsible for performing. The state troops participating in the review were all walking in a phalanx of infantry.

This result can only give Shi Lifen a little comfort, but more bitterness. Looking at being surpassed one by one by neighbors who were not as good as before, would never feel wonderful.

The military parade of the Holy Roman Empire not only touched the hearts of the domestic people, but also attracted the attention of the world.

As a newly rising hegemon, every move of the Vienna government is subject to "political interpretation" by the outside world. Even if there is no purpose, it will be interpreted by people.

Naturally, the one who is most concerned about all this is the Spanish Foreign Minister Junior, who has just arrived in Vienna and wants to obtain diplomatic support and policy loans.

In Vienna's embassy district, there is a row of buildings with distinct layers, scattered high and low, full of sunlight and vitality.

Almost everyone here will stop to admire this artistic Spanish-style building.

Perhaps this is the last stubbornness of the old-school empire. Despite Spain's decline, its diplomatic investment has never been shabby, at least in the embassy in Vienna.

"Count Brad, you have been in Vienna for 20 years, if anyone in Spain knows the Holy Roman Empire best, it must be you.

The Vienna government is holding a military parade at this time. Do you think they are really just demonstrating to the British? "

Junior couldn't think too much about it. Don't look at the fact that the Vienna government rarely does anything, but once it does, it will be earth-shattering.

As far as the "military parade" event itself is concerned, it means that it is not too big, and it is not too small. If it was put on hold before, Junior would not be so concerned.

It's different now. It's been more than three years since the European War ended, and the economic crisis is about to pass. The Holy Roman Empire, which had initially completed the integration of the German states, has come out of a period of weakness.

The two-headed eagle, which has taken care of its body, always goes out to hunt. No matter how it changes, the eagle is still the eagle, and it is impossible to change to a vegetarian diet.

Throughout the world today, the only one that has the strength to compete with the Holy Roman Empire is Britain, and the Russians are at most half.

On the surface, the relationship between the UK and Austria has indeed been somewhat tense in recent years. The Vienna government has demonstrated to the British in the military parade, and there is nothing wrong with it.

It's just that Junior didn't think things would be that simple. After all, the Holy Roman Empire's advantage was on land, while the British's advantage was at sea.

No matter how powerful the Shinra Army is, the British who are protected by the strait cannot feel the real pressure.

Unless the location of the military parade is changed to the sea, and dozens of battleships are concentrated for a performance, it is estimated that it can give the British a headache for a few days.

Minister Brad smiled slightly, put down the coffee in his hand, and replied: "The purpose of the Vienna government is not only to demonstrate to the British.

If you want to make the British unhappy, it is better to directly increase the naval budget and build a few more warships.

Your Excellency, don't forget that besides the British, there is also a polar bear on the European continent. Although the bear is now hibernating, no one can ignore their presence.

In particular, they just changed the tsar, and the newly succeeded Tsar Nicholas II has recently started tossing in the country.

Based on past experience, I personally judge that Shinra's National Day military parade is because Franz the Great is beating the Russians again.

This is almost an endless cycle. Every time an ambitious tsar succeeds, the relationship between Russia and Austria will be tense for a period of time. After hitting a wall, the relationship between the two countries will soon return to normal.

Of course, the intention to demonstrate to countries around the world is not ruled out. After all, they're the hegemons again now and have to do something. "

In recent decades, when it comes to the "Russian-Austrian alliance", there is no European politician without a headache. It can be said that this alliance directly determines the direction of the European situation.

However, this seemingly unbreakable alliance is far less harmonious than what the outside world sees.

Around the battle for the dominance of the alliance, the secret struggle between Russia and Austria has never stopped. Only in recent years, Austria has gradually gained the dominance of the alliance with its economic advantages, and the struggle has gradually eased.

However, how could the tsarist government be willing to be a little brother? Since Alexander II, almost every tsar has made efforts to get rid of Austrian influence.

Unfortunately, the tsarist government was really poor. Every time their economy picks up, new wars ensue.

The end result was that after each war, the Russian Empire's reliance on Austria increased by one point.

From the beginning of the economy, to the military, then to the industrial system, and now to the culture and art, the connection between the two countries is too close.

The economic crisis that broke out not long ago is an example. The Holy Roman Empire had economic problems, and the Russian Empire had no room to struggle, and was directly dragged into the water.

Whether they like to admit it or not, the interests of the ruling class of the tsarist government are tied to Austria.

If they are unlucky, Austria may only be in a short-term pain; but if there is a problem with Austria, their money bag will be destroyed.

Otherwise, the tsarist government would not have been easily fooled into joining the anti-French war, nor would it sit idly by while the Holy Roman Empire was restored.

Now that it has developed to this stage, it is no longer possible for someone to oppose it. Any behavior that undermines the relationship between the two countries is to move the cheese of the bureaucratic aristocracy.

If it really turned its face, the Vienna government released African agricultural products into the market and loosened the restrictions on the development of mineral resources. The agriculture and mining industries of the Russian Empire would soon be over.

Not only the bureaucrats and aristocrats did not agree, but also the compradors and national capitalists below. At the same time as buying and buying, the lifeblood of Russian industry and commerce is inevitably handed over to Russia.

All the vested interests are against it, it's just that the tsar wants to change, and the final outcome does not need to be thought.

This conclusion was not conjectured by Minister Bullard out of thin air, but was exchanged by Britain and France with decades of experience and lessons.

In order to split the Russian-Austrian alliance, the French have worked hard for more than 30 years, the British have worked hard for 40 years, and countless international relations experts and scholars have painstakingly studied, and finally came to this conclusion.

To destroy the relationship between the two countries, the easiest and only way is to have a political earthquake in the tsarist government and purge all the original vested interests.

Moreover, the new ruling class must also be combative. Not only must we be able to resist the enemy's sugar-coated cannonballs, but we must also be prepared to endure hardships and stand hard work for a long time and be ready to suppress the revolt of bankrupt workers and peasants in the country at any time.

"kindness!"

As long as it is not aimed at Spain, Junior has no intention of mixing with Russia and Austria.

"As long as it doesn't involve us, then let's watch the fun. By the way, how are you and the bankers in Vienna talking about the loan?"

Junior has not forgotten the purpose of his coming to Vienna, as long as he can borrow money, the rest are trivial matters.

The smile on Minister Brad's face disappeared all of a sudden at the mention of borrowing. After a moment of silence, he slowly said: "Your Excellency Minister, you know it. Those vampires are all masters who eat people and don't spit out bones.

Not only are the loan interest high, but they also require collateral, and not collateral in the general sense.

They want us to collateralize the distribution rights of the competition tower. "

Minister Brad was also very helpless. Given the financial situation of the Spanish government, it was impossible for ordinary commercial banks to lend. If you want to get a loan, you can only go to those unusual speculative banks or financial small loan companies.

Interests are the easiest to get lost. Watching overseas bankers take their hands into politics one by one, and some even directly control a country's currency issuance rights, some people in the Shinra financial community are also unable to sit still.

There were even people who paid attention to the distribution rights of Aegis, but these guys were unlucky. They met a strong government and soon met God.

Big meat can't be eaten, and slightly smaller meat is equally tempting. When Spain came to the door at this time, the financial speculators couldn't help it.

After being silent for a while, Junior said slowly: "You have such a big appetite, aren't they afraid of being choked to death

Who gave them the confidence to eat us, could it be…”

Before Junior could finish speaking, Minister Brad interrupted: "It's not the Vienna government, I'm sure of that.

The Italian states did not move the right to issue banknotes when they were delivered to their door; they did not take advantage of the situation during the recent economic crisis.

Aegis is already the world currency, and the game tower and Aegis are also linked, and our currency issuance rights are not important to them.

As for the origin of this vampire, in fact, we are all familiar with it. Except for those goddamn Jewish ghosts, the whole world can't find anyone so greedy..."

To die for the daring, to starve to the death of the timid. In this regard, Jewish capital is the most prominent.

Despite heavy losses in the previous anti-corruption campaign, after a period of recovery, Jewish capital has re-emerged in the financial world.

It's just that this time his identity is no longer a mainstream banker, but some financial small loan companies that make a profit, or a speculative bank.

There is no way, except to make quick money outside the door, the ordinary business model is simply impossible to make a comeback so quickly.

Different from the unscrupulous in the past, after experiencing social beatings, Jewish financiers have restrained a lot.

After realizing that Shinra is not suitable for their development, these people are also considering the three caves of the cunning rabbit. It was just at this time that Spain came to the door, and there was a story behind it.

After calming down, Junior quickly realized that something was wrong. Dare to play the idea of the distribution rights of the game tower without anyone's backing, this is not the usual daring.

"No, there must be a problem behind this. The power of Jewish capital in Austria is not strong, and with their power alone, it is impossible to mobilize so much cash in a short period of time.

What's more, our situation is not good. Other commercial banks dare not give loans, why do they dare to borrow

You have to find out who is supporting it. Otherwise I'd rather make a deal with the Vienna government than deal with their vampires. "

Although it is not known who is calculating, one thing Junior is clear about is that Jewish capital is incapable of fighting a state.

Even if the contract is signed, if the Spanish government breaches the contract, there is nothing they can do.
