Chapter 1026 Incomprehensible Capital

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

The rehearsal before the military parade started, and Schlieffen was not at all happy when he saw the troops gathered from all over the world.

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 teams participating in military parades everywhere are not fools. It is simply impossible to stand out by stepping on the shoulders of others.

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

"Military orders are like a mountain" is not a joke. If you play new tricks on your own initiative, no matter what the result is, you must go to the military court.

It was true that Schlieffen wanted to attract the emperor's attention, but he was not going to do it through death. If he really screwed up the National Day military parade, not only would he be ruined, but his troop number might be cancelled.

Regardless of how glorious the Prussian army was in the past, they are only an insignificant part of the current defense system of the Holy Roman Empire.

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

If it's just that there is no way to attract the emperor's attention, then that's all. After all, the chances of this kind of thing are very low, and they still have a backup plan.

What makes Schlieffen even more sad is that among the many troops that arrived in Vienna, they became the most shabby existence. If that counts as getting attention, then they really hit it off.

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

Although the cavalry has not yet withdrawn from the stage of history, the torrent of steel has become the main line of future development.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

It is human nature to chase hot spots. Regardless of whether it is a large state or a small state, those who retain the army have made a bunch of new toys for themselves to support their appearance.

If it hadn't been banned by the traffic control department, it is estimated that some people would come here with planes and tanks.

Anyway, the number of people participating in the military parade in each state is not many, ranging from a few people to as many as a hundred people, and the means of transportation are the same.

That being the case, of course it is how the scenery came about. After all, everyone wants to save face, and in front of the people of the whole country, there is nothing wrong with being ashamed.

We must know that the movie has already been born. As the first military parade of the Holy Roman Empire, it is necessary to keep the image data. Once recorded, it is forever stained.

Facts have proved that this is completely overthinking.

Aircraft cannons, tank armor, and the Central Army is in charge of the show. The state troops participating in the review all walked in the infantry phalanx.

This result can only give Shilieffen a little bit of relief, but more bitterness. Seeing being surpassed one by one by neighbors who were not as good as oneself in the past, which feeling is definitely not 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 others.

Naturally, the one who paid the most attention to all this was the Spanish Foreign Minister Junior who had just arrived in Vienna and wanted to obtain diplomatic support and policy loans.

...

In the embassy district of Vienna, there is a row of buildings with clear layers, high and low, full of sunshine and vitality.

Almost everyone who comes here will stop and admire this artistic Spanish-style building.

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

"Count Brad, you have stayed in Vienna for twenty years, if anyone in Spain understands 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 to demonstrate to the British? "

Junior had no choice but to think too much, although the Vienna government rarely did anything, but once it did, it would be earth-shattering.

As far as the "military parade" event itself is concerned, it is neither big nor small. If it had been left before, Junior would not have paid so much attention.

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

A double-headed eagle that has raised its body will always go out to hunt. No matter how you change it, the eagle is still an eagle, and it is impossible to change to a vegetarian diet.

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

On the surface, the Anglo-Austrian relationship has indeed been somewhat tense in recent years. There is nothing wrong with the Vienna government's military parade to demonstrate to the British.

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

No matter how powerful the Shinra Army is, the British protected by the strait will not feel the real pressure.

Unless the location of the military parade is changed to the sea and dozens of battleships are gathered for a performance, it is estimated that it will still cause headaches for the British for a few days.

Minister Brad smiled slightly,

Putting down the coffee in his hand, he replied: "The purpose of the Vienna government is naturally not just to demonstrate to the British.

If you want to make things difficult for the British, it is better to directly increase the naval budget and build a few more warships to be more effective.

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

Especially since they just changed their tsar, and the newly succeeded tsar Nicholas II has recently started to toss in the country again.

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

This is almost an endless loop. 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 were the overlords again now, and something had to be done. "

In recent decades, when it comes to the "Russian-Austrian alliance", there is no European politician who does not have a headache. It can be said that this alliance directly determines the direction of the European situation.

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

Surrounding the dispute over the dominance of the alliance, the secret struggle between Russia and Austria has never stopped. It was not until recent years that Austria gradually gained the dominance of the alliance by virtue of its economic advantages that the struggle gradually eased.

However, how could the tsarist government be willing to be a younger brother? Starting from Alexander II, almost every tsar has made efforts to get rid of the influence of Austria.

Unfortunately, the tsarist government was really poor. Every time their economy has just improved, a new war has followed.

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

From the initial economy, then 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, so it was directly dragged into the water.

Whether you want 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 suffer for a short time; but if something goes wrong in Austria, their pocketbooks will definitely be ruined.

If this were not the case, the Tsarist government would not be easily fooled into joining the anti-French war, let alone sit back and watch the Holy Roman Empire be restored.

It has developed to the present stage, and it is no longer possible for someone to object to it. Any act that damages the relationship between the two countries is touching the cheese of the bureaucratic nobles.

If it really turned around and the Vienna government put African agricultural products into the market and relaxed 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 nobles did not agree, but the compradors and national capitalists below also did not agree. While buying, buying, and buying, the lifeblood of Russian industry and commerce will inevitably be handed over to Russia.

All vested interests are opposed, but the tsar wants to change, and the final outcome is known without thinking.

This conclusion was not conjectured by Minister Brad out of thin air, but the result of Britain and France's decades of experience and lessons.

In order to split the Russia-Austria 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 it before finally reaching this conclusion.

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

Moreover, the new ruling class must also be full of combat effectiveness. Not only must we be able to resist the enemy's sugar-coated shells, but we must also be prepared to endure hardships and stand hard work for a long time, and be prepared to suppress the rebellion of bankrupt domestic workers and peasants at any time.

"kindness!"

As long as it is not aimed at Spain, Junior has no intention of meddling with the bad things between Russia and Austria.

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

Junior has not forgotten his purpose of coming to Vienna, as long as he can borrow money, everything else is trivial.

When it came to borrowing money, the smile on Minister Brad's face suddenly disappeared. After a moment of silence, he slowly said: "Your Excellency, you know. Those vampires are masters who cannibalize people without spitting out their bones.

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

They want us to use the distribution rights of the game tower as collateral. "

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 small financial loan companies.

Interests are the easiest way to get lost. Watching overseas bankers one by one go deep into politics, and some people even directly control the currency issuance rights of a country, there are also some people in the Shinra financial circle who can't sit still.

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

You can't eat big meat, but smaller meat is equally attractive. At this time, Spain was delivered to the door, and financial speculators couldn't help it.

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

who gave

If they eat our confidence, could it be..."

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

They did not move the right to issue banknotes to the Italian states; they did not take advantage of the recent economic crisis.

Aegis is already the world currency, and the game tower and Aegis are also linked. 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 bloody Jewish ghosts, there is no such greed in the world..."

Stretch the bold and starve the timid. In this regard, Jewish capital is the most prominent.

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

It's just that this time the identity is no longer a mainstream banker, but some small financial loan companies that are making money, or speculative banks.

There is no way, other than earning quick money from other places, it is impossible for ordinary business models to make a comeback so quickly.

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

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

After calming down, Junior quickly realized something was wrong. Dare to play the game tower distribution rights idea without anyone's backing, this is no ordinary audacity.

"No, there must be a problem behind this. The power of Jewish capital in Austria is not strong. 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. Why do they dare to borrow loans that other commercial banks dare not lend?

It is necessary to find out who is supporting it. Otherwise I'd rather make a deal with the Viennese government than deal with them vampires. "

Although I don't know who is calculating, one thing Junior knows is that Jewish capital is not capable of fighting against a country.

Even if the contract is signed, if the Spanish government breaches the contract, they will have nothing to do.
