Chapter 1114 Was Acted
The Netherlands was forced to stand in line, and the Nordic Federation was not much better. Although the family is stronger, it also depends on who you are comparing with.
The Vienna government has been pulled into the chariot of all European countries. Even if the Nordic Federation alone can maintain neutrality, they must consider liquidation afterwards!
If you can't do it, you go into the mountains to fight guerrillas, and you just talk about it. Whoever is full and holds on, and has a good life, will go to the ravine.
What's more, even if you want to drill a ravine, you must first have a mountain. Norway and Sweden do have the potential to use the terrain to resist and fight a war of attrition, but Denmark can't!
The Jutland peninsula, which is flat and flat, simply does not have the conditions to stick to it for a long time. The specific may refer to World War II, which ended the battle in just four hours.
Although it is a bit exaggerated, the fact is the fact, even if it is mixed with other factors, it cannot be changed.
The current situation is not as good as the original time and space. At least the European battlefield was supported by the Soviet Union. Although the anti-German alliance was at a disadvantage, the overall national strength was still more dominant.
It is very different now. The European continent at the moment is full of members of the anti-British alliance. It's daunting to watch, let alone fight against.
In the face of the Vienna government's ultimatum, the central government of the Nordic Federation has not yet made a final decision, and the Danes helped them make a choice.
There is no way, it's all forced by reality. For the Nordic Federation, the threat that the Holy Roman Empire can bring to them is obviously much greater than that of the British.
As a small power in the European continent, the Nordic Federation is not weak in terms of territory and military strength.
There is only one reason for them to be limited to becoming a great power - insufficient population.
On the land of nearly 900,000 square kilometers, there are only less than 10 million people living, and naturally it cannot support a single foreign power.
This is one of the reasons why the Nordic Commonwealth wants to take Finland back. Although the Grand Duchy of Finland under the Russian rule, its own economy is not very good, but it can increase the population of several million, which is of great significance to the Nordic Federation.
As long as the Nordic Federation has a population of 20 to 30 million people, it will not be so passive. The Vienna government can force a small country to stand in line, but it is still mainly to win over the foreign powers.
It is a pity that there is no such thing as reality, and the harsh climate limits the growth of the local population.
After all, not all nations are as resilient as the Russians, maintaining high fertility rates in the cold and snowy country.
Nordic people are quite Buddhist when it comes to fertility issues. The population base itself is small, and the birth rate has not kept up with the world average for many years, but the population outflow is still serious.
Population limits the strength of the Nordic Federation, and naturally it has no confidence in the face of the behemoth of the Holy Roman Empire.
...
London, South Africa and Zhanyun made up for it. Before the British government could respond, they ushered in the bad news that all countries would come to an end one after another.
The situation is changing so fast that it is overwhelming. You must know that just a week ago, the most popular in the European world were the "anti-war movement" and "neutrality movement".
With the exception of Russia and Austria, all continental European countries are members of the "anti-war movement", and anti-war voices are soaring into the sky.
In order to avoid being involved in the war, countries even agreed to hold an international conference in Madrid after Christmas to form a "neutral front".
The countries are making such a fuss, naturally, the British government is helping fuel the flames. The law does not blame the public, and it applies not only to individuals, but also to international politics.
All European countries are involved, no matter how strong the Holy Roman Empire is, it is impossible to pursue this issue.
For Britain, it is also a good choice to keep countries neutral.
In order to strengthen the neutrality of all countries, the British government is even considering whether to give up the plan to completely block the European continent, just targeting the Holy Roman Empire.
As it turns out, they just think too much. The grass on the wall is always the grass on the wall, and it is impossible for them to face the strong wind without bending over.
Despite the fact that the neutrality movement was initiated by the Dutch, it was not the Dutch government that clamored the most, but Belgium, Sardinia and other countries that performed the most intensely.
Trying to take on the role, Campbell believes that these countries have experienced the pain of war, and it is right to be anti-war.
The reality is very comedy. The louder the clamor in the front, the faster the team is in the back.
As soon as the news of a military conflict broke out in South Africa, countries could not wait to show their loyalty to the Vienna government, leaving no time for the British government to react.
Before it was clear what was going on, a giant "anti-British alliance" that gathered all the countries in the European continent appeared in front of everyone.
Although some of the countries were coerced into it and did not want to participate in this turmoil, they still participated in the final result.
"Fighting against the European continent alone", a joke that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs once used to scare lawmakers in order to allow parliament to allocate funds to implement the continental balance policy, did not expect it to actually come true.
Foreign Secretary Adam said with a look of grief and indignation: "We have been tricked by European countries, who have long been in collusion with the Holy Roman Empire.
The anti-war movement that broke out earlier was just a cover to cover their collusion, and the purpose was to lower our vigilance.
I propose immediate action, full revenge, to let them know that Great Britain is not to be bullied..."
Don't be angry, Adam's political career was over, and now he has caught up with this matter.
"The worst foreign secretary ever in the British Empire", this time is really stable. The ancients have disappeared from the front, and now we will see if there is still coming from behind.
It is estimated that the possibility of being surpassed by the latecomers is not very likely. After all, the hegemony of Britain is only once, and once it has fallen and you want to get it back, the basic market of the British Isles is far from enough.
If no accident happens, Adam Wingard's name will be immortalized as a negative teaching material in British history.
Of course, Adam wasn't alone in the bad luck. When such a big incident happened, one of the cabinet members present was counted as one, and no one wanted to run away.
As the saying goes, "Analysis is a mess before the event, and Zhuge Liang is seen after the event." The international situation has changed dramatically, and what was originally correct has now become a sin.
Campbell interrupted: "Sir, it's pointless to say this now, get ready to be questioned by the MPs!
Those lords don't consider the actual situation. They have only seen more than a dozen countries conspired against each other against the British. We still don't know anything about such a big thing.
But don't worry, before the end of the term, I believe no one will compete with us for jobs. Now this mess, they have no time to avoid it, how could they take the initiative to join in? "
After the fact, Zhuge Liang, anyone can do it. As Prime Minister Campbell said, more than a dozen countries conspired against Britain. Why does the government know nothing about such a big thing?
There will even be people who will go deep into the core analysis and interpret this incident from a deep political logic.
For example: the Holy Roman Empire has the grace to restore the country to Belgium, the Italian states were liberated by the Holy Roman Empire, and the Holy Roman Empire supported Spain's recovery...
If you owe favors, you always need to pay them back, especially if you owe favors to a big country, you must pay them back.
Now when it's time to repay the debt, there is nothing wrong with supporting Shinra from various countries.
Ordinary people can think of the problem, but the government has no idea about it beforehand, it must be dereliction of duty.
If this happened at another time, it would be enough to make Campbell's cabinet get out of the way.
Keeping them in office is not because everyone is showing mercy, but mainly because no one is willing to take over this mess.
Chancellor of the Exchequer Asquith: "Your Excellency Prime Minister, I think the core issue now is not what has happened, and we must look forward.
The emergence of the anti-British alliance has already signaled that the war has entered the countdown. It is imperative that we find a way to win this war.
For example: first stabilize the emotions of our allies and convince them that the final victory must belong to us. Or maybe it’s better to strike first and catch the enemy by surprise…”
No way, the foreign minister is obviously under a blow now, and he is not in the state at the moment, and someone must remind him what to do next.
Prime Minister Campbell: "The outline of the battle plan, I have reported to the king. Because of the flaws in the plan, His Majesty is not very satisfied.
Especially the lack of a plan to strike at the core of the Holy Roman Empire. Just something against the enemy..."
