The South African gunsmoke begins, the intense international situation, becomes even more beyond redemption. The critical moment of standing in line arrived, cannot allow everyone to have a hesitation again. 南非硝烟再起,原本就紧张的国际局势,变得越发不可收拾。站队的关键时刻到了,再也容不得大家有一丝犹豫。 The smell of gunpowder is flooding the whole world, Europe at this moment looks like sits on lighting the powder keg of blasting fuse, is waiting for the final judgement of destiny. 火药味充斥着整个世界,此刻的欧洲就像是坐在点燃导火索的火药桶上,等待着命运的最终裁决。 Amsterdam, along with the anxiety of international situation, this lively international metropolis, although heavy traffic as before, did not have the past happy talks and laughters. 阿姆斯特丹,伴随着国际局势的紧张,这座繁华的国际性大都市,虽然车水马龙依旧,却没有了昔日的欢声笑语。 The situation is tense, the capital market is keenest. Does not wait for the Dutch government to make chooses finally, the stock market took the lead to collapse the plate. 局势紧张,资本市场是最敏锐的。不等荷兰政府做出最终抉择,股市就率先崩了盘。 The capitalists brandish bill to buy in abundance, whether or not high-quality, so long as is some asset people bids. 资本家们纷纷挥舞着钞票“买买买”,无论是否优质,只要是资产就有人出价。 Especially the daily necessities are most popular, does not wait for the general public to respond, the price rubs braved, what is most essential is the stockout. 尤其是日常生活用品最受欢迎,不等普通民众反应过来,物价就蹭蹭蹭的冒了上去,最关键的是缺货。 Does not have the means that Holy Roman and British two big overlords, once makes war, North Sea will be blocked inevitably, the ocean trade definitely could not conduct. 没有办法,神罗和不列颠两大霸主一旦开战,北海势必会遭到封锁,远洋贸易肯定是进行不下去了。 The commodity of home production cannot go out, the overseas industrial material cannot come, to the frail Dutch impact was really big. 国内生产的商品出不去,海外的工业原材料进不来,对脆弱的荷兰冲击实在是太大了。 Although continental Europe, is as marine trading power, the economy of Holland depends on the ocean trade to support most probably. 尽管还有欧洲大陆,可是作为海上一个贸易大国,荷兰的经济大半都靠远洋贸易支撑着。 The seaborne commerce line was blocked, the relation between native and colony interrupted. Not having the colony can plunder, puts together the manufacturing industry strength purely, Holland may not have many competitiveness. 海上贸易线被封锁,本土和殖民地之间的联系就中断了。没有殖民地可以掠夺,纯粹拼制造业实力,荷兰可没有多少竞争力。 Realized the crisis, capitalists with practical action, as far as possible recalls the loss for oneself. 意识到了危机,资本家们正在用实际行动,尽可能的为自己挽回损失。 Heavy traffic at this moment, in fact is storm gather final crazy. Can the commodity of shipment exit|to speak probably immediately deliver, the commodity that needs to import must race against time similarly. 此刻的车水马龙,实际上就是暴风雨来临前的最后疯狂。能够装船出口的商品必须要立即送出去,需要进口的物资同样得抢时间。 Constrained atmosphere influence, the pedestrians on road are come also in a hurry, goes also in a hurry, both sides store peaceful. 受压抑的气氛影响,路上的行人都是“来也匆匆,去也匆匆”,连带着两旁的商铺都安静了下来。 Especially sells the luxury luxury goods, that is entrance Luo Que. On the contrary is the common daily necessities general store, before the gate, queues. 尤其是卖高档奢侈品的,那更是门庭罗雀。反倒是不起眼的日用品杂货铺,门前排起了长龙。 The Dutch government also has the preparation, since Franz opens the government interfered with the beginning of market, imitation has not been short, the difference only lies in interfering with the effort the size. 荷兰政府也不是没有准备,自从弗朗茨开了政府干涉市场的先河后,效仿者就从来都没有少过,区别只在于干涉力度的大小。 Saw that the buying panic erupts, to stabilize internal stability, the Dutch government also can only activate the contingency plan, to daily necessities- limiting purchases. 眼瞅着抢购风潮爆发,为了稳定国内局势,荷兰政府也只能启动应急预案,对日常生活用品-“限购”。 However this cannot baffle the intelligent Dutch people, limits purchases arranges several teams at the worst. Even if the shop has the record, but an Amsterdam still not only daily general store. 不过这也难不倒智慧的荷兰人民,限购大不了多排几次队。就算是门店有记录,但是阿姆斯特丹也不只一家日用杂货铺。 In the time without Internet, wants to achieve to limit purchases in the true sense, was really difficult. 在没有互联网的时代,想要真正意义上做到限购,实在是太难了。 To capitalists, so long as some people to money, whom did sell to not to sell? 对资本家们来说,只要有人给钱,卖给谁不是卖? Only if government direct involvement monopolizing, otherwise limiting purchases function, to assemble the commodity merely won the time. 除非是政府直接介入专营,要不然“限购”的作用,也仅仅只是为调集物资争取到了时间。 Monopolizing is impossible, is different from later generation Europe State-owned Store everywhere, various European countries of this year rarely have the enterprise directly. “专营”是不可能的,不同于后世欧洲国有商店遍地,这年头的欧洲各国很少直接拥有企业。 The mature commercial operation pattern, has not given the bureaucrat to be completed directly, might as well leaves alone, whatever the capitalist tosses about. 没有成熟的商业运营模式,直接交给官僚来完成,还不如放任不管,任由资本家折腾。 At least the government can little owe a money, little scolded by, does not need to face directly the anger of people. 起码政府可以少亏点儿钱,少挨点儿骂,不需要直面民众的怒火。 The folk felt the situation to be intense, the pressure that the senior government officials in control country, faces was bigger. 民间都感受到了局势紧张,掌控国家的政府高层,所面临的压力就更大了。 Since the czar government decides to support Holy Roman, the Dutch government realized neutralism must be defeated, starts to seek for the new solution. 自从沙皇政府决定支持神罗之后,荷兰政府就意识到了“中立运动”要失败,开始寻找新的解决方案。 What a pity the time does not wait for the person, the new plan has not fiddled with, the news that the England and Austria South Africa conflicts instead first step transmitted. 可惜时间不等人,新方案还没有捣鼓出来,英奥南非冲突的消息反而先一步传来了。 Good fortune never come in pairs, misfortune never singly comes. “福无双至,祸不单行”。 Does not wait for the Dutch government to react, spreads the news that Spain, Belgium, Switzerland and other countries stood in line. 不等荷兰政府做出反应,紧接着就传来了西班牙、比利时、瑞士等国站队的消息。 Until now, had not indicated that the standpoint the European country, only has Holland and Northern European federation now. 时至今日,尚未表明立场的欧陆国家,现在只剩下荷兰和北欧联邦。 From the Holy Roman farthest Portugal, this morning, threw to the Vienna government honestly. 就连距离神罗最远的葡萄牙,都在今天上午,向维也纳政府投了诚。 Can make the Kingdom of Portugal set firm resolve rapidly, betrays the British ally to join the Holy Roman camp, the inside real reason is not complex. Broadly for a few words is- the Spanish kingdom chose Holy Roman Empire . 能够让葡萄牙王国迅速下定决心,背叛英国盟友转投神罗阵营,内里的真正原因并不复杂。概括为一句话就是-西班牙王国选择了神圣罗马帝国 Slightly understanding Spain and Portuguese gratitude and grudges knows, historically both countries had once unified. The emerging Spanish nationalism, in the ideal area includes Portugal. 稍微了解点儿西班牙和葡萄牙恩怨的都知道,历史上两国一度统一过。新兴的大西班牙民族主义,理想疆域中就包括葡萄牙。 Under time big backgrounds of two big camp oppositions, Kingdom of Portugal, if continues to follow Britain to mix, must seize the chance to give the annexation by Spain. 在两大阵营对立的时代大背景下,葡萄牙王国要是继续跟着不列颠混,没准就要被西班牙趁机给兼并了。 The land power of English is limited, light/only guards own territory to be difficult, is unable to conduct the powerful support to them. 偏偏英国人的陆军实力有限,光守卫自家的领地都困难,根本就无法对他们进行强力支援。 One-on-one, Portugal definitely cannot do Spain, particularly has Holy Roman support Spain. 单对单,葡萄牙肯定干不过西班牙,尤其是有神罗支持的西班牙。 Although theoretically, for the need of stable hegemony, Holy Roman must limit the strength growth of various countries, is unlikely to support Spain to annex Portugal. 虽然从理论上来说,出于稳固霸权的需要,神罗必须要限制各国的实力增长,不大可能支持西班牙兼并葡萄牙。 But the theory merely is only the theory, in the past years, the Vienna government did the unreasonable matter to. 但理论仅仅只是理论,在过去的岁月里,维也纳政府干过不合理的事情多得去了。 After minister in Lisbon pierced the window paper, the Kingdom of Portugal made the correct choice quickly. 在驻里斯本公使捅破了窗户纸后,葡萄牙王国很快就做出了正确选择。 In order to survive, offended the English unable to attend. Supports Holy Roman national so many now in any case, even if the English won the war, does not have the ability to criticize. 为了生存,得罪英国人也顾不上了。反正现在支持神罗的国家这么多,就算是英国人赢得了战争,也没有能力进行清算。 The most serious consequence, nothing but discards the overseas colony. Originally is the long-term loss, lost happen to lightened the financial burden. 最严重的后果,无非是丢掉海外殖民地。本来就是长期亏损,丢了正好减轻财政负担。 Is damaged as for the domestic interest group, that is not the matter that the politicians present cares about. In the face of the survival, must yield the way. 至于国内利益集团受损,那不是政客们现在关心的事情。在生存面前,一切都要让道。 Rapid standing in line along with Portuguese government, the pressure of Dutch government on instantaneous big. Meanwhile stared by two great nations, that feeling is not absolutely wonderful. 伴随着葡萄牙政府的迅速站队,荷兰政府的压力就瞬间大了起来。同时被两个大国盯上,那个感觉绝对不美妙。 ...... …… Is reading the telegram in hand, Queen Williamina sound some saying of shivering: Suspends the commercial trade, Vienna government this is issuing the ultimatum!” 看着手中的电报,威廉明娜女王声音有些颤抖的说道:“暂停商业贸易往来,维也纳政府这是在下达最后通碟啊!” Perhaps by the influence of Franz butterfly effect, Queen Williamina participation politically, is higher than the history same time. 或许是受弗朗茨蝴蝶效应的影响,威廉明娜女王在政治上的参与度,远比历史同期高。 Not is only she, the monarchies in entire Europe almost came under the influence. With the domineering rise of Holy Roman Empire , the constitutional monarchy system of Britain, affects to be far from the original space and time having the market. 不光是她,全欧洲的君主几乎都受到了影响。伴随着神圣罗马帝国的强势崛起,不列颠的君主立宪体系,影响远没有原时空那么有市场。 Although various countries also follow to imitate the constitutional monarchy, but constitutionalism and constitutionalism , also has the difference. 尽管各国也跟着效仿君主立宪,但是“立宪”和“立宪”之间,同样也是有区别的。 Yes, your majesty!” “是的,陛下!” Prime minister Christy replied. 首相克里斯蒂回答道。 „ After South Africa conflicts erupts, Holy Roman Empire with the war between Britain started the countdown. The Vienna government chose to lay cards on the table at this time, was not strange. “南非冲突爆发后,神圣罗马帝国同不列颠之间的战争就进入了倒计时。维也纳政府在这个时候选择摊牌,并不奇怪。 The only difference lies in Vienna government attitude, was much stronger than past any period, did not allow the leeway that discussed. 唯一不同之处在于维也纳政府这次态度,比以往任何时期都要强硬得多,丝毫不留商量的余地。 Perhaps this is an overlord! 或许这就是霸主吧! Not is only we, received the ultimatum including the Northern European federation. Leaves our time is not many, before the war breaks out we must make the choice. ” 不光是我们,包括北欧联邦也接到了最后通碟。留给我们的时间不多了,在战争爆发前我们必须要做出抉择。” Can look, Christy is not quiet. Obviously before the Vienna government changes, domineering attitude that the mild-mannered and cultivated image, displays suddenly, touched his innermost feelings. 看得出来,克里斯蒂内心并不平静。显然维也纳政府一改之前温文尔雅的形象,突然表现出的强势作风,还是触动了他的内心。 However touches turns over to touch, to present this step, realized this point already late. Holy Roman Empire that the situation has become, is not they can shake. 不过触动归触动,到了现在这一步,意识到这一点已经晚了。大势已成的神圣罗马帝国,根本就不是他们能撼动的。 Yeah!” “哎!” After sighing, internal affairs minister secure Henriques sighs with emotion: „ Choice, we absolutely do not have to choose now! 叹了一口气后,内务大臣安文-亨里克斯感慨道:“选择,我们现在根本就没得选择! Holy Roman with the hegemony war between Britain, once erupts, the entire Europe no one can cultivate one's own moral worth. 神罗同不列颠之间的霸权战争一旦爆发,整个欧洲都没有谁能独善其身。 The English permit our neutrality actually, is how the royal navy again powerful, the warship cannot come ashore ; But the Holy Roman army can actually kill Amsterdam. 英国人倒是允许我们中立,可是皇家海军再怎么强大,军舰也上不了岸;而神罗的陆军却可以杀到阿姆斯特丹。 Makes the choice to start from the czar government, our plans have been defeated. Now various European countries fate stands in line, originally is expected the matter. 从沙皇政府做出选择开始,我们的计划就已经失败了。现在欧洲各国纷纷下场站队,本来就是预料之中的事情。 The neutralism that we initiated, made the Vienna government uncomfortable. If continues dead to shoulder, must be used for the vertical prestige by them. ” 原本我们发起的中立运动,就令维也纳政府不爽。要是继续死扛下去,没准就要被他们用来立威了。” It is not secure Henriques instigated, is really the capital that Holland has not died to shoulder, as long as is powerful a little, is insufficient by such shining threat. 不是安文-亨里克斯怂,实在是荷兰没有死扛的资本,但凡是实力强大一点儿,也不至于被这么明晃晃的威胁。 Has a look at the Northern European federation of next door to know, although was also issued the ultimatum, however is much politer in the expression, even can also discuss again. 看看隔壁的北欧联邦就知道,虽然同样被下达最后通碟,但是在措辞上就要客气得多,甚至还可以再商量商量。 Naturally, the Vienna government present disregards another's feelings slightly, before the Dutch government the neutralism that fiddles with is also related. 当然,维也纳政府现在的丝毫不留情面,和荷兰政府之前捣鼓的中立运动也不无关系。 Must know that recent dozens years, Holland walks with Vienna is also near, in the international politics diplomacy, both countries also often maintains continuously the standpoint. 要知道最近几十年,荷兰同维也纳走得也非常近,在国际政治外交上,两国也时常保持一直立场。 If not this war involves too in a big way, related to the paramount interest of respective country, the two governments was also insufficient to make such stiffly. 如果不是这次战争牵扯太大,涉及到了各自国家的核心利益,两国政府也不至于闹得这么僵。 Foreign minister Fantuofu beckons with the hand saying: „ secure said well, now the standpoint of Vienna government is extremely strong, we truly do not have to choose. 外交大臣范托夫摆摆手道:“安文说得不错,现在维也纳政府的立场太过强硬,我们确实没得选择。 Not only need stand in line, best also probably catch up indicates the standpoint before the Northern European federation, otherwise the follow-up trouble must have. 不光是要站队,最好还要赶在北欧联邦之前表明立场,要不然后续的麻烦少不了。 As for the English that side, Ministry of Foreign Affairs will socialize with every effort, the avoid as much as possible native place degenerates into the battlefield. 至于英国人那边,外交部会尽力周旋,尽可能避免本土沦为战场。 However the use possibly is not possibly big, if the English wants the landing operations, having three places is available, we exactly are one of them. 不过可能用处可能不大,如果英国人想要登陆作战的话,只有三个地方可供选择,我们恰好是其中之一。 For the national security, I suggested to strengthen the defense of coastal area. For example: Increases the shore artillery number, or is imitates Holy Roman Empire to form the air force coast defense formation. 为了国家安全,我建议加强沿海地区的防务。比如说:增加岸炮数量,或者是效仿神圣罗马帝国组建空军海防编队。 Then, bets the luck with France and Belgium! Hopes God to care for the Netherlands kingdom! ” 然后,就和法兰西、比利时一起赌运气吧!但愿上帝会眷顾尼德兰王国!” The politics is not always pure, even if stands in line also to divide. First went to the past, went to the past with last, the treatment that enjoyed was also often entirely different. 政治从来都不单纯,哪怕是站队也要分时间。第一个投奔过去,和最后一个投奔过去,享受到的待遇往往也是截然不同的。 Arrived present this step, first stood in line definitely unable to catch up, now Dutch government can only do does not become last. 到了现在这一步,第一个站队肯定是赶不上了,现在荷兰政府唯一的能做的就是不成为最后一个。 Obviously, can the best political speculation time had passed by, now stands in line most also with eating a soup, make up for the loss in war not to know. 显然,最佳的政治投机时间已经过去了,现在站队最多也就跟着喝口汤,能不能弥补在战争中的损失都不知道。 Does not have the means that the development present this step, even if were nothing benefit, the Dutch government must follow to stand in line. 没有办法,局势发展到了现在这一步,哪怕是没有任何利益,荷兰政府也必须要跟着站队。
