Chapter 765

The mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​blood is the true portrayal of the battlefield in the Near East at this moment. The war has come to this point, and both sides have already been killed.

Everyone has only one goal - to kill the enemy. In order to win, everyone gave up the bottom line, and various means of refreshing the offline line were constantly being staged.

Combining religion and war, the power that erupts is terrifying. Human bombs have become conventional weapons, and some even use seven or eight-year-old children as launchers.

Binding bombs to children, waving a leather whip to drive them forward, crying and explosions sounded at the same time, there is nothing like purgatory on earth.

When compassion is exhausted, the consequences are naturally catastrophic. The bloodiest places in the war have become no-man’s land after the war.

Looking at the information passed back, the well-informed Franz was also silent. The only reaction was that the Ottomans were "crazy".

Defeat is not terrible. As long as people are still there, there is hope for a comeback. If people are gone, there will be nothing.

Now that it is the 19th century, international public opinion can play a little role. Everyone knows that it is impossible for a shameful government like Austria to carry out genocide.

Prior to this, the Vienna government had formulated a resettlement plan and even selected the place.

A beautiful island in the Arctic Ocean, with a mild climate, lots of sunshine, little rainfall and a good living environment, it is very suitable for tourism.

For this island, the Vienna government also compensated the British Canadian colonial government a huge sum of 15,000 pounds to obtain sovereignty.

Judging from the current situation, Franz feels that the Vienna government will save a lot of immigration relocation costs.

According to the data returned by the Allied Command, as of Christmas, the death toll of the coalition had exceeded 117,000, and the number of casualties was as high as 547,000.

The Austrian army alone paid a heavy price of 59,000 dead and 287,000 casualties. The first wave of cannon fodder corps was basically wiped out, and the second wave of cannon fodder corps also suffered heavy losses.

The coalition forces lost so much, and as the beating party, the loss of the Ottoman Empire was naturally more serious.

According to incomplete statistics, as of now, the Ottoman Empire has permanently lost more than one million troops.

No way, the Ottoman Empire has not yet established a complete field medical rescue system. There are too few medical staff, and even the officers in the field hospital cannot fully provide protection. Ordinary soldiers are protected by **** for minor injuries.

The loss of the army is so great, and the civilian casualties are even more uncountable. Anyway, the number of deaths must be more than the army.

The cruelty of the war in the Near East still caused an uproar in continental Europe, and anti-war once again became a hot topic.

Even Austria has anti-war ideology, of course, the main war faction has the upper hand, mainly because it is too relieved to beat Ottoman.

As long as the history book is opened, everyone will have the motivation to destroy the Ottomans. The anti-war faction is only against war, not against the destruction of the Ottomans.

Just as the melon eaters were pointing the way, on a sunny day, the Kingdom of Prussia and the Kingdom of Hanover completed their confluence.

It's really low-key, although everyone knows that Prussia and Hanover have been hooking up all the time, but no one would have thought that they would be able to form a federal empire.

On February 14, 1883, the German Federal Emperor George I was crowned Emperor of the United Empire of Hamp, and the European world received another crown.

Prussia and Hanover have formed a dual empire, and the North German region has been substantially unified.

Numerous small states resisted the troublesome entry of Prussia in the Reichstag, but ended in failure.

Legally, Prussia and Hanover share one state quota, which is the prerogative of the emperor, and no one wants to oppose it.

The Habsburg dynasty set a precedent. Hungary and the Balkans could use part of Austria to become the territory of the Shinra Empire. Now George I is just following suit.

The North German region is unified, and the German Federal Empire can now claim itself as the "North German Empire", theoretically on a par with the Habsburg Dynasty's new Shinra Empire.

In St. Petersburg, Alexander III clapped the table and asked: "Didn't you swear and assure me that the Vienna government will never allow the merger of Pude?

Now, as you all hoped, Pude has really merged. Just the Austrian intervention you promised, where? "

Many European countries are pushing for the merger of the Prussians to counterbalance Austria, but this definitely does not include the Russian Empire.

The Prussian-Russian war was so bloody, the two sides had long been enmity, and there was no possibility of undoing it.

After the reunification of the North German region, it can indeed increase the difficulty of Austria's unification of the German region, but Russia has also added a strong enemy to the west.

This is determined by size. Regardless of the fact that the Kingdom of Prussia was split, and many regions were merged into Hannover, being the second largest in this new empire, it was believed that the strength of the anti-Russian faction was weakened.

In fact, no matter how the land is divided, the people above are still those people, and the power of hatred will make these people stand on the opposite side of Russia.

In terms of population, the number of people who hate Russia accounts for more than half of the new empire, and the rest of the people are mostly unfavorable to the Russians.

There is no doubt that hatred of Russia is the mainstream of the nascent empire. Don't expect the two sides to reconcile until this generation is dead.

If only one more hostile country is added, the tsarist government doesn't care. There are so many countries in the world that are hostile to Russia, and life is not the same.

But North Germany is different, this is a

Strong guy. If it weren't for the Prussian youth who lost too much, the Pude merger would not be weaker than the previous Pubo Federation.

Even if Prussia was hurt, the new North German Empire had seven or eight points of the strength of the former Commonwealth of Prussia, which was enough to create pressure on Russia, which was severely damaged.

The inaction of the Vienna government made the tsarist government very confused.

Being stared at by Alexander III's murderous gaze, his scalp was numb, and the foreign secretary, Oscar Jimenez, who was directly responsible, could only answer daringly.

"Austria was so focused on the Near East battlefield, ignoring the changes in Central Europe that the British took advantage of it.

Sudden drastic changes, the Vienna government may not have reacted, and it has been delayed to take action. "

The more he spoke, the lower his voice, the cold sweat broke out on Oscar Jimenez's forehead. There is no way, I really can't make it up.

He is the Russian foreign minister, not the Austrian foreign minister. It is normal to not know what is going on; if you know, he is the most powerful foreign strategist of this century.

On the bright side, it seems unreasonable. How does Oscar Jimenez explain this?

Alexander III sneered: "Nonsense! Things have already happened, you told me this, why did you go earlier?

The Vienna government will ignore Central Europe. Do you believe it? "

No wonder Alexander III was so rude. The two Russian-Prussian wars made the tsarist government miserable. He really didn't want to come again for a third time.

...

I don't want to see that the merger of Pude is not only for the Russians, but also Napoleon IV in Paris is also furious.

There's not that much reason, just because it's in the way. The birth of the North German Empire increased the difficulty of France's eastward strategy.

The recent French Revolution was caused by many reasons, one of which was the energy crisis.

Afterwards, all walks of life in France have come to the conclusion that there must be a stable source of raw coal to ensure the domestic energy supply.

Until a new source of raw coal is found, the eastward strategy is an irreplaceable part.

If France were not still recuperating and the anti-war wave had not faded, domestic interest groups would have taken action long ago.

After venting and passing, Napoleon IV calmed down: "If we intervene now, what are the chances of interrupting the merger of Pude?"

Terrence Bulkin, the foreign secretary, replied in a panic: "No, it must not be!"

"Your Majesty, the anti-French alliance seems to be disbanded. In fact, the hostility of the European world to us is still strong. If you are not careful, it will..."

Napoleon IV waved his hand impatiently: "Don't be alarmist here, the anti-French alliance is also worth vigilance against the three countries of Britain, Russia and Austria.

Now that the Russians have expressed their position against the merger of Prussia and Germany, although Austria has not expressed its position, I do not believe that they are willing to give up the unification of the German region.

Pulling Russia and Austria together to intervene, even if the remaining European countries oppose it together, it will not help us. "

There is no problem, France, Russia and Austria happen to be the three major army powers in the world, and the three countries can join forces to sweep the world on land.

Foreign Secretary Terence Bulkin explained with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, Russia and Austria will not join forces with us.

If Austria wants to unify the German region, it must pay attention to its reputation. When it comes to the internal affairs of the German region, they will not join forces with anyone.

The tsarist government may want to intervene, their finances are too bad to be able to pay for the military to intervene. "

After listening to this explanation, Napoleon IV was stunned in an instant.

The current situation in France is not very good. If the tsarist government had no money before the Great Revolution, Napoleon IV could still give generously, and now the Paris government has no pockets.

Napoleon IV really didn't dare to try if he couldn't get his allies to do it alone. In case of public anger, no one could bear the consequences.

After pondering for a while, Napoleon IV slowly asked: "The Austrians have been slow to act, do you know the reason?"

The more unreasonable it is, the more likely it will lead to suspicion. The Vienna government did not respond to the unification of the North German region, and Napoleon IV had to suspect that there was a conspiracy involved.

Seeing everyone fell into contemplation, the Minister of War, Luskinia Hafez, guessed: "Will the Austrians let North Germany unify because they are afraid of us?"

Although he was a little bit narcissistic, everyone still did not object. Even after a civil strife, France is still the most feared monster in everyone's eyes.
