buy or not
It's not a multiple-choice question at all.
From the standpoint of the Vienna government, the Moroccan region must be won, and it is nothing more than a matter of time.
The Air Force's "Terminator Program", while somewhat idealistic, is not without merit.
It is unrealistic to storm the Royal Navy's nest, but it is still possible to treat Morocco as a giant aircraft carrier, deploy hundreds of bombers on it, and lock the west gate.
For the Holy Roman Empire, the greatest value of winning Morocco is to have the strategic initiative.
With both the east and west gates of the Mediterranean in hand, the Shinra Navy can take the initiative to attack, and there is no need to stay in the nest every day to watch the house.
In recent years, the Vienna government has behaved very calmly and rarely intervenes in regional conflicts.
Most of the Royal Navy's main force remains in the local fleet, just to watch the Shinra Navy. In order to ensure its control over the Mediterranean Sea, the Vienna government could only leave the battleship squatting in the nest.
There is no way, the strength of the British navy is too strong. Shinra can only have the upper hand in the Mediterranean by cooperating with the navy and air force.
If the main force goes out, the British will be ruthless and launch a surprise attack directly from behind to blow up the Suez Canal and block the Shinra Navy outside, then it will be over.
When it comes to the struggle for hegemony, it has always been omnipotent. No one can guarantee that there will be no ruthless people in Britain.
Taking the Moroccan region is different, the west gate is locked. No matter how the outside world changes, Shinra can guarantee control of the Mediterranean.
Even if the war broke out, the British would at most send a few submarines in to do things. As for surface ships, it is estimated that passing through the strait is almost useless.
The plane can't sink the warship, it's just a short-term raid, which is very difficult to do. If it keeps blowing up behind the butt, no matter how awesome the warship is, it will have to go into the sea to feed the fish.
As long as the Mediterranean Sea is still in hand, the Vienna government can mobilize resources from Asia, Europe and Africa in the shortest possible time by sea.
…
It was another sunny day, and Franz, who had nothing to do, appeared by the artificial lake in the Vienna Palace with a group of grandchildren.
I don't know why, every wealthy emperor likes to build palaces, and Franz is no exception.
The giant artificial lake in front of you is one of Franz's masterpieces. After several expansions, the Schönbrunn Palace and the Hofburg Palace in Yuhi have been connected to form the current Vienna Palace.
If you simply calculate the area, the Vienna Palace is definitely the largest palace in the world, no one.
Franz could race in his own home if he wanted to. If it were left in the eastern world, the emperor would build palaces in such a way that the civil servants would definitely be sprayed with blood.
But in the Holy Roman Empire, it wasn't a big deal at all. As a big empire with a territory of nearly 40 million square kilometers, everything may be lacking, but there will be no shortage of land.
Vienna was originally under the direct control of the emperor, and most of the land was the private property of the royal family.
Yes, the so-called expansion is to add a wall. The patrol range of the Royal Guard has been increased, but not many buildings have been added.
The original farms and manors still exist, and only the factories have been migrated away.
The temporary vegetables inside the palace are provided by these farms. All are pure natural products, absolutely do not contain any fertilizers and pesticides additives.
It's mainly for convenience, otherwise running around the two palaces, although it doesn't hurt much money, it's really labor-intensive.
No way, who made Franz afraid of death
Every time the guards go out, they have to monitor a radius of two kilometers, never leaving any chance for the enemy, and the battle is no less than the movement of the march.
For everyone's convenience, simply connect the two places, so as to save the surrounding residents from running back and forth.
Anyway, the emperor is rich now and can afford to support enough royal guards, no matter how big the palace is, he can monitor it.
Leaving aside private property, the light annuity is enough for Franz to squander.
You must know that when the constitution was established, seeing the financial difficulties of the Vienna government, Franz took the initiative to make sacrifices, proposed to share weal and woe with the people, and set an early decision to withdraw the royal annuity at 1.5% of the fiscal revenue.
It was really a "sacrifice", and the Vienna government at that time was really poor. The royal annuity that was extracted could not even be supported by the palace guards.
In the first few years, Franz did not lose money. At that time, the media also did publicity, which really touched many people.
No one could have imagined that the country would develop so fast. In just over 40 years, Austria, which is less than 700,000 square kilometers, has snowballed into what is now the Holy Roman Empire.
The country is growing and the economy is booming. The fiscal revenue of the Vienna government has naturally risen, and it has actually expanded dozens of times.
Needless to say, listed companies still have equity incentives. As a hero who promotes the development of the country, the emperor will naturally benefit from it.
Today, a political show of the year has become a legend and spread all over the world.
As far as Franz knows, many aspiring kings have followed suit. In the end, these followers have developed the good habit of being thrifty and housekeeping.
There is no way, this year a country wants to develop, it has to face too many challenges.
Although Austria was in decline back then, it was still the fourth largest power in the world, and it still had the strength to support the scene.
Not only do you not need to worry about the threat of foreign enemies, you can also play colonial expansion to transfer domestic conflicts while promoting social reform.
Without such a family background, I also jumped out to follow the trend, but what do you want to do in hard times
You must know that industrialization is very expensive. There is no income from foreign colonization and plunder, and only relying on farming to accumulate wealth, the speed of development is absolutely touching.
Franz, who is known as the model of the monarch, can only silently express his spiritual support to his colleagues who were inadvertently pitted.
To put it simply, it is to let the servants often write letters of encouragement to these juniors, and constantly instill chicken soup for the soul.
In short, the road ahead is tortuous, and the future is bright. As long as you keep doing it, you will be successful one day.
Based on the principle of flickering one by one, Franz's reputation in the monarchy circle is rising, and he has a large number of believers.
As for the final outcome, this is beyond Franz's control.
As a qualified spiritual mentor, Franz is very clear about the truth of "doing more is more wrong than not doing well".
Therefore, he has always only offered spiritual encouragement, without making any specific suggestions, under the euphemistic name of not interfering in other countries' internal affairs.
It's all for free. When he was fighting the world and starting his own business, Franz wished that the rulers of other countries would be drunk, let alone encourage them to struggle.
It is different now, the supremacy of the Holy Roman Empire has been established. No matter how much the latecomers can toss, it can't change the overall situation.
Then just be a good person, inspire younger generations to study hard, complete industrialization as soon as possible, and promote the development of human civilization.
I don't know if it's because of "fish eat bad food", Franz always comes here for fishing every time he is happy, but returns when he is not happy.
This time is no exception. Looking at a group of grandsons who are jumping around, Franz knows that it is difficult to gain anything today.
But these are all small problems. Fishing is all about passing the time, so it doesn't really matter if you have any harvest.
"Father, the British are out to do something again!"
Hearing a familiar voice behind him, Franz knew that trouble was coming again. In recent years, the secret war between Shinra and Britain has become more and more intense.
You cheat me today, and I cheat you tomorrow. Over time, the grievances between the two countries have long since disappeared.
Especially during the period when Frederick was in charge, the Vienna government suffered no less. Based on the principle of paying tuition fees, as long as it does not involve core interests, Franz is too lazy to intervene.
"A problem with Morocco?"
From the news that the Spanish government was going to sell Morocco, Franz knew that the British were going to do something.
The essence of international politics is: I oppose what the enemy supports, and I support what the enemy opposes; what the enemy wants to do, let them fail.
Frederick: "That's right. The British are spreading rumours that we are bullying the Spanish government to seize Morocco.
Just this morning, the British Foreign Secretary also publicly issued a declaration to support the Spanish government in safeguarding its own rights and interests, and suggested that the Spanish government fully bring Morocco under its control. "
Franz commented with interest: "It seems that this British government has made rapid progress, and its political means have become more and more mature.
But these little tricks can make people sick. Unless the British are willing to pay, supporting Spain to take control of Morocco is a joke.
As long as the financial problems of the Spanish government are not resolved, their determination to sell Morocco will not be easily shaken. Now it's making a fuss, it's nothing more than a convenience for the Spaniards to raise prices.
Keep an eye on it, the British must have something to do. Warn the Spanish government and warn them of a revolution at home. "
It is somewhat surprising that the British government has not jumped out to compete in Morocco. However, considering that the British have suffered similar losses before, it is not surprising that they have learned their lessons now.
As for the pressure on public opinion, it is nothing more than a question of price. Only when the money is given is a strong buy and a strong sell; as long as the price is reasonable, it is an ordinary colonial transaction.
Just a simple calculation, the Vienna government will pay tens of millions of Aegis funds for this, and the British have no reason to quit.
Frederick said with a dejected face: "The truth is correct, but the calculations of the British have brought our negotiations with the Spaniards to a deadlock again.
Not only has it attracted public attention internationally, but the domestic people are also very concerned about this issue. There have even been a number of fundraising committees in the private sector, trying to provide this money for the government.
Since the news of the Spanish government's intention to sell Morocco has spread, there has been a steady stream of people who have come to lobby, and I'm getting sick of it. "
Obviously, the sudden appearance of the "fundraising committee" wants to pay for the government because of how patriotic they are.
In the final analysis, it is for profit. The Holy Roman Empire pays attention to the principle of reciprocity.
The Vienna government paid for the purchase of the Moroccan area, which is directly under the central government, and everyone would at most have a sip of soup.
If civil groups buy Morocco with money and complete the armed occupation, then another group of fief aristocrats will rise.
The government responsible for taking the lead will at most take a few big cities and important ports, and most of the benefits will be distributed to those who contribute money.
As vital interests are involved, everyone's reaction is naturally quicker. As for the issue of money, there is no need to worry at all, some are sponsored by capitalists who want to cross the class.
Money + force = colonization success.
As the world is completely divided up, the chances of acquiring fiefs have become less and less. Every time an opportunity arises, there will be a large group of people fighting for it.
In particular, Morocco is still very close to Europe, and the climate is also very good, which makes it more attractive.
Franz did not show any sympathy for his son's depression, but said gloatingly: "Just get used to it.
There will be many such things in the future, and you have to learn to adapt.
When you develop a strong heart, you will find that these trivialities are just a speck of dust in your life, and they are nothing at all. "
Sometimes pouring more chicken soup is also very good for the body. The dream chicken soup that cannot be realized and detached from reality is poisonous.
Although Franz's words are flickering, if he is really strong in his heart, he can indeed treat these troubles as a speck of dust.
After all, Frederick was the crown prince of the Holy Roman Empire, and as long as he could stick to his principles, there was nothing the lobbyists could do.
Frederick was very depressed about this result. Originally, I came to report to my father, just to seek help.
The solution was not found, but instead it was filled with chicken soup. If he was young, Frederick would definitely be enthusiastic and take twelve points to complete it.
However, Frederick, who was in his forties, was obviously past the age of blood. For the encouragement within the chicken soup, immunity has long been achieved. Generally speaking, now it is he who feeds others chicken soup.
Franz did not give an answer, which means that the distribution of interests in the Moroccan region requires him, the crown prince, to make his own decisions.
Obviously, this is not an easy job. At any time, the distribution of benefits is the most troublesome.
Morocco is just that big and there are so many people watching. Obviously, it is impossible to satisfy everyone's appetite, and the distribution is very challenging.
Frederick quickly reacted. Morocco did not get it, so he first considered the issue of benefit distribution, obviously because he thought too much.
Looking at the group of little boys playing by the lake, Frederick showed an envious look.
Childhood time is the most beautiful, you can have fun without thinking about anything. It's a pity that time is gone, never to return.
