Taking advantage of the victory of the World War, with the support of the local powers in Mexico, Count Bleu settled in Mexico City on October 16, 1905.
There is no harm without comparison. Thanks to the years of melee in Mexico, the people's patience with the republican government has long been exhausted, and the restoration operation has gone smoothly than expected.
Once the general trend converges and forms the torrent of the times, it is no longer something that individuals can stop.
Massimiliano I's business for so many years is not in vain. There are also a group of supporters in Mexico, and most of these supporters are from international students. Whether it is vision or thinking, they are much broader.
Seeing the prosperity of the European world, these people have the idea of changing the status quo in Mexico and can be said to be born reformers.
Unlike Massimiliano I, who grew up in a honeypot, Bleu has been in the name of an exiled prince since he was a child, and he took on the task of restoration early on.
With the intervention of Franz, Bru received a royal education from an early age. Whether it is vision or personal ability, he is much stronger than his father.
When Blue arrived in the Americas a few years ago, he got in touch with these supporters. Through these relationships, Bru has been deployed in the Mexican government and military.
It's just that he didn't get the full support of the family before, and he was worried about the interference of international forces, and Bruce has been quietly accumulating strength.
With the victory of the World War, the situation changed suddenly. The Holy Roman Empire became the new hegemon, and the Habsburg dynasty was once again at the top of the world.
In this context, even if the neighbors wanted to intervene, they would not dare to do it lightly. The international environment for restoration was already in place.
What's more, during the World War, Blu also used the power of Shinra to take the opportunity to eliminate dissidents.
Don't look at the fact that there are royalists everywhere in Mexico now, and think how much everyone supports the royal family.
It was with the help of Shinra's tiger skin that Blue was able to successfully bring the recruited mercenaries to Mexico City.
Unwittingly, Shinra's army has entered, and Bruce must have obtained the full support of the Vienna government. If he does not defect to the past, he will not be able to catch up.
One emperor and one courtier, in this stall where the dynasties are changed, if they are on the wrong team, it will be very fatal.
Followers + royalists + speculators, together constitute the ruling team of Bru.
This provisional government, with a majority of speculators, is obviously unstable in its organizational structure. But Blue has no choice now, and he knows that speculators must use it.
…
"What did your father say, did you get the loan?"
Earl Blue asked with concern.
Restoration also requires money. Mexico itself is heavily indebted. During the republican government, there have been many financial bankruptcy, not to mention the baptism of war.
Now in Mexico, it's like a house with four walls in the north, south, east, and west torn down, and the few remaining pillars are also badly damaged.
Now that he has taken over the state power, these troubles naturally fall into the hands of Count Blue. If the financial problems are not solved, even if the restoration is successful, the country will not be able to sit for long.
"Your Majesty asked you to complete the great cause of restoration as soon as possible. As for the issue of funding, he told you not to worry, he will find a way to solve it."
The old man answered slowly.
The old man obeyed Bruce's caution. The telegram is not without a password, and someone has to be sent to pick it up in person, and it must be destroyed immediately after reading it.
However, Bruce's caution is also justified. The more critical it is, the more careful and vigilant it is.
Now it is only the royal family who supports his restoration, not the Holy Roman Empire, and even the voice of opposition within the Vienna government is not small.
Now Bruce is completely using the poor information to pull up the skin of the gods, making the outside world mistakenly believe that he has the full support of the Holy Roman Empire.
The most important reason why all walks of life in Mexico are willing to cooperate so much is to be intimidated by the prestige of the world hegemon. Once it was made known to them that Blue's current supporters were just the royal family, the situation was very different.
No matter how powerful a family is, it can't compare to a country, especially if this country is still a world hegemon.
If you get the full support of the Habsburg family, then it is no problem to wipe out a Mexico. As long as you are willing to pour money and resources into it, no amount of trouble can be solved.
This is the cauldron of Massimiliano I. In the past few decades, he has reached out to beg for alms many times, but he has not achieved any results.
In everyone's eyes, this is a waste of family resources. With this inherent impression, when Bruce sought help from his family, his criticism never stopped.
Everyone is not optimistic about their restoration plan at all, thinking that even if the restoration is successful, it is only a flash in the pan and cannot be firmly established.
Especially in the opening of the country's stalls, another group of cousins came out to snatch political resources. The older generation is obviously willing to devote more resources to state building than to support the restoration of their father and son.
The palms of the hands and the backs of the hands are full of meat. Against this background, it is impossible for Franz to give Bru too much support.
For the unity and stability of the family, Franz took an equal approach. As long as the personal ability passes the test, all the families with great ambitions will give support.
With such a dispersion of power, the level of support that Bru can get can be imagined.
It seems to be a fair distribution, but the cousins, they still have the political resources that their fathers run in the government, which Massimiliano I can't provide.
Wearing the hat of the emperor of Mexico, his status is noble, but it also eliminates the opportunity for him to develop within the Holy Roman Empire.
When my parents were there, I could still chew on the old man, but now I can only chew on the elder brother.
However, this is also a drop in the bucket. There are many Franz brothers, there are more than ten sons and nephews in the second generation, and dozens more in the third generation.
Even if there is family affection, not many are assigned to Bruce. If it weren't for Massimiliano I's face, it would be difficult for Bru to talk about tiger skins.
If it wasn't for Franz helping to press it from behind, the Vienna government would have jumped out and said that the title of world hegemon is not easy to borrow.
With insufficient resources in hand, Bru had to be extra careful. For telegrams involving core secrets, I would rather send someone to make an extra trip than go through the special line of the Governor's Palace.
With an affirmative answer, Bruce wasn't happy. The thing about human affection is one point less, and family affection is also unbearable.
Now all the love has been exhausted, and the future will be difficult after the death of the parents.
Although everyone is very obscure, as a smart person, Blue can clearly feel the alienation of his cousins to their father and son.
After pondering for a while, Blu said, "Well, since the funding issue has been resolved, let's start the reform plan!"
"Your Highness, why don't you restore it first?"
As an old man who followed Massimiliano I for decades, Philibert fought for the restoration of the cause all his life.
Regardless of the ability, but this loyalty is incomparable to the latecomers.
Now that he has finally seen the dawn of restoration, he still has to carry out social reforms first. How can he accept it.
"Duke, the restoration is very simple, and there are people who want to fight for this feat of slavery. With just one order, the ceremony can be held tomorrow.
But it doesn't make any sense. How can we gain the support of the people if we do not have outstanding achievements
A lot of things can be done now, and once restored it will become very troublesome. Taking advantage of the current chaos is our best chance to reform.
If anyone dares to come out against it, just kill it. When the situation stabilizes after the restoration, it will be difficult to deal with these diehards.
This is my uncle's personal experience. After the outbreak of the Vienna Revolution, Austria was also in chaos. It was his insistence on drastic reforms in the turbulent times that gave rise to today's Holy Roman Empire. "
The classic case of Franz the Great was pulled out, and no matter how many reasons Philippe had, he swallowed it back. After so many years of exile, no one wants the country to be stronger than him.
Since there are ready-made templates, why not learn them
From Bruce's every move, it can be seen that he is clearly imitating Franz.
When Franz killed the active capitalists with the help of the rebels, he also hit the diehard aristocracy, which created an opportunity for the rise of the new aristocracy.
Blue's approach is similar. In the past world wars, he used the power of the Shinra army to clear a large number of dissidents.
Now is the time when the Mexican diehards are at their weakest. The lucky survivors are also frightened by this social beating, and they don't dare to make trouble in a short period of time.
…
Just as the great cause of reform in Mexico had just begun, the farce of the United States was scrambling to be staged. Faced with astronomical war reparations, Congress is already arguing.
Members of Congress are quarreling, and the quarrel among the people is even worse. Most notably, the federal and eastern states in the Midwest have fought a war of words in the newspapers.
One side accuses the other of holding the government and provoked this wrong war for their own benefit, making them pay for the war.
The other side claimed that the United States was a whole, that the central government was the one who started the war, and the responsibility was naturally borne by the central government, while the reparations were shared by all the federal states.
As for the central government, of course, it does not exist. The impeachment case had just begun, and the Roosevelt administration was very single.
The old government was killed, but the new government failed. Around the issue of the distribution of war reparations, the anger between the federal states is getting more and more prosperous.
Affected by the domestic tension, the presidential election has also been affected. Politicians running for election are afraid of being forced to express their opinions by the public, so even their speeches can only be broadcast on the radio.
This team is not easy to stand, the current atmosphere of the United States, there are already some signs of the outbreak of the Civil War.
The radical media has already shouted the slogan of independence. In some federal states, throngs of people have already taken to the streets, demanding the state government's independence from the United States.
