The naval construction of navy planned to be overruled by Franz, was about 1851 navy budget, enhanced 1 million shield again, reached 12.681 million shield altitude. 海军的造舰计划被弗朗茨否决了,不过1851年的海军预算,再次提高了一百万盾,达到了1268.1万盾的高度。 The Austria Libyan government attaches importance to the attitude of navy to be obviously ordinary, but how to attach great importance to again, change an essence of Austria money pouch land power country. 地利政府重视海军的态度可见一般,只不过再怎么重视,也改变不了地利是一个陆权国家的本质。 Rapidness that in 1851 the army military expenses rose, rose dramatically 61,246,200 shield, the big reserve duty strategy formally started, according to the plan from now on, must grow 200,000 reserve duties every year. 1851年陆军军费上涨的更快,飙升到了6124.62万盾,大预备役战略正式启动,按照计划从现在开始,每年要增长20万预备役。 In 1851 Austria benefitted the military expenses overall budget of empire, rose compared with 1850 about 20%, the footsteps of war are approaching. 1851年地利帝国的军费总预算,比1850年上涨了近百分之二十,战争的脚步正在临近。 As the movement of neighbor Russia person, how possibly to hide the truth from the Austria Libyan government? A short time ago Nicholas I also under the pretext to distant expansion, levied a war tax. 作为邻居俄国人的动作,怎么可能瞒得过地利政府呢?前不久尼古拉一世还以向远方扩张为借口,征收了一次战争税。 Without suddenly Austria secret treaty, everyone will be half believing and half doubting, cannot establish the war goal of Russia person. Knows that the truth the Austria Libyan government, 99% assurances had determined the Russo-Turkish War must break out. 如果没有俄密约,可能大家还会将信将疑,不能确定俄国人的战争目标。知道真相的地利政府,已经有百分之九十九把握确定俄土战争又要爆发了。 Such being the case, naturally must follow up as the ally Austria Libyan government. Without the Russia person breaks the situation, does the strategy that Austria benefits how conduct? 既然如此,作为盟友地利政府自然要跟进了。要是没有俄国人打破局势,地利的战略如何进行呢? Benefits from the big movement of Russia person, the Austria Libyan government enhances the military spending, the mighty waves do not have. From the outside, this is the normal reaction, how has Russian bear such neighbor should be again vigilantly. 得益于俄国人的大动作,地利政府的提高军费支出,一点儿波澜都没有。在外界看来,这是正常反应,有毛熊那样的邻居再怎么警惕都是应该的。 The European situation is a slight move in one part that may affect the whole situation, the arms race will also always infect, although suddenly Austria has not provoked the meaning of arms race, but everyone followed up. 欧洲局势向来都是牵一发而动全身,军备竞赛也是会传染,尽管俄都没有挑起军备竞赛的意思,不过大家还是跟进了。 All governments enhanced the military spending in abundance, the English exceptional land armament race, they always do not participate. 各国政府纷纷提高了军费开支,英国人例外陆军军备竞赛,他们从来都是不参加的。 It is not all state finance situations is so good, the Prussia kingdom of financial difficulty, this time has not followed up. 不是所有国家财政情况都那么好,财政困难的普鲁士王国,这次就没有跟进。 Frederick- William IV is not a fool, plays the arms race with suddenly Austria fundamentally, the Prussia kingdom on the support. The military spending surpassed the financial revenue half, increased only to go bankrupt again. 腓特烈-威廉四世不是傻子,跟着俄玩军备竞赛,普鲁士王国根本就支撑不起。军费开支都超过财政收入的一半了,再增加下去就只能破产了。 Similarly the French of financial difficulty followed up, although the French government does not have money, is the non-governmental financial organization is rich, was OK to the bank loan. 同样财政困难的法国人跟进了,法国政府虽然没钱,可是民间财团有钱,向银行贷款就可以了。 This is the background of established empire, has the sufficient financial guarantee, why this is also France can after Britain, becomes in the big powers second to complete the industrialization country. 这是老牌帝国的底蕴,有充足的财力保障,这也是为什么法国能够继英国之后,成为列强中第二个完成工业化的国家。 Belgium completes the industrialization time and English is close, their industrial systems are imperfect, many industries do not exist. 比利时完成工业化时间和英国人很接近,不过他们的工业体系不完善,很多行业都不存在。 Although Belgium first completes the industrialization, but still cannot compare several big powers in the industrial strength, but has the advantage in some domains. 尽管比利时先完成工业化,可是在工业实力上依然比不上几个列强,只是在部分领域有优势。 Vienna 维也纳 Prime Minister Felix says: „ Your majesty, by the influence that the Russia person prepares, has not acted besides the Prussia kingdom of financial difficulty temporarily, various European countries start the expansion of armaments to prepare. 费利克斯首相开口说道:“陛下,受俄国人备战的影响,除了财政困难的普鲁士王国暂时还没有动作,欧洲各国都开始扩军备战。 A week ago, in Louis Napoleon Bonaparte under the support, the French government approved the expansion of armaments bill, French Army expanded 50,000, after the expansion of armaments was completed, their total military strengths achieved 436,000, was next to Russia. 就在一个星期前,在路易-拿破仑-波拿巴的支持下,法国政府通过了扩军法案,法国陆军又扩充了五万,扩军完成过后,他们的总兵力就达到了43.6万,仅次于俄罗斯。 To our following strategies, the threat of French has risen first, we must enhance vigilance, prepare the counter measures. ” 对我们接下来的战略来说,法国人的威胁已经上升到了第一位,我们必须要提高警惕,准备好应对措施。” France is the European traditional land power, died to knock for several hundred years with the Habsburg dynasty, Napoleonic Era France Army reached the peak. 法国一直都是欧洲传统的陆军强国,和哈布斯堡王朝死磕了几百年,拿破仑时代法国陆军更是达到了巅峰。 Regarding the French, everyone holds 12 vigilance. After learning the buildup program of France, the Austria Libyan government immediately held the cabinet meeting. 对于法国人,大家都是抱有十二分的警惕。在获悉了法国的扩军计划后,地利政府就立即召开了内阁会议。 The Franz knitting the brows head, he knows that this does not make a fuss over a trifling matter, how the threat of French attaches great importance to not being overrated again. 弗朗茨皱了皱眉头,他知道这不是小题大做,法国人的威胁再怎么重视也不为过。 How many France does have to garrison?” Asking that Franz cares about “法国本土有多少驻军?”弗朗茨关心的问道 The French soldiers are indifferent, their colonies are also many, always needs some people to guard. The key is to look at them strongly in the army of native place, this may create existence of threat to the Austria advantage. 法国兵多无所谓,他们的殖民地也不少,总是需要有人驻守的。关键是要看他们集中在本土的部队,这才是有可能对地利造成威胁的存在。 Prime Minister Felix replied: „Before the expansion of armaments, is 221,000, after the expansion of armaments is completed, is indefinite, the worst situation is these 271,000 armies stays in the native place completely.” 费利克斯首相回答道:“扩军前是22.1万,扩军完成之后还不确定,最糟糕的情况是这27.1万军队全部留在本土。” After Franz relaxes, waits for the Russia person to begin, UK , France to the Ottoman empire will definitely help, when the time comes French Army stays in the native place will obviously not have so many. 弗朗茨松了一口气,等俄国人动手过后,英法肯定会给奥斯曼帝国帮忙,到时候法国陆军留在本土的显然不会有这么多。 Because the reserve duty system is rotten, the French expansion of armaments requires some time, can form the battle efficiency, this is the opportunity. 由于预备役制度已经烂了,法国人扩军需要一定的时间,才能够形成战斗力,这就是机会。 Most made is the French government that he was worried restores the reserve duty system, was back to the Napoleonic Era, that type can recruit the war mobilization mechanism of 1 million armies momentarily, threatened in a big way. 最令他担心的就是法国政府恢复预备役制度,重回拿破仑时代,那种随时可以征招百万大军的战争动员机制,才是威胁最大的。 Obviously, Louis Napoleon Bonaparte the ability in military is not much. Otherwise Franco-Prussian War, was insufficient only to mobilize 220,000 armies, in a hurry and Prussian decisive battle, by looks for the tooth that two times of many superior forces punched by others everywhere. 显然,路易-拿破仑-波拿巴在军事方面的能力不咋地。不然普法战争时期,也不至于只动员起来了22万军队,就匆匆和普鲁士人决战,被人家以两倍多的优势兵力揍的满地找牙。 Perhaps is because loses is too undeserved, after the war the French was not convinced, the English instigated, France and Germany changed the death enmity of being able to untie. 或许是因为输的太冤枉,战后法国人一直都不服气,英国人挑拨了一下,法德两国就变了解不开的死仇。 Franz indefinite asking: If the French uses so many armies to intervene, we should be able to wrap up?” 弗朗茨不确定的问道:“如果法国人只是动用这么多军队干预,我们应该兜得住吧?” Specific issue, but must explain specialized. 专业问题,还要专业解答。 Franz thinks or has certain military level, this level mainly manifests strategically. If were concrete in the tactic, directed the fight estimate below the regiment level not to have the issue. 弗朗茨自认为还是有一定军事水平的,这个水平主要体现在战略上。如果具体到了战术上,指挥团级以下的战斗估计没有问题。 Now this type the fights of hundreds of thousands of armies, chief of the general staff Marshal Radetzky has the right to speak, he and French army of peak has fought, has the own experience. 现在这种动则数十万大军的战斗,还是总参谋长拉德斯基元帅更有发言权,他和巅峰时期的法国军队交过手,有亲身体会。 Marshal Radetzky thinks, replied: „ Your majesty, the present French army is not the Napoleonic Era was so invincible, passed through so many years wearing down, does not have the imposing manner of that unmatched in the world. 拉德斯基元帅想了想后回答道:“陛下,现在的法国军队已经不是拿破仑时代那么战无不胜了,经过了这么多年的消磨,早已没有了那种天下无敌的气势。 In the military suitable situation, we can fight a decisive battle with the French. 兵力相当的情况下,我们就可以和法国人进行决战。 If after and other Kingdom of Bavaria lay the railroad, takes the military action again, then within one week, we can project on Budden, keeps off the French beyond the entrance. ” 如果等巴伐利亚王国把铁路修通过后,再采取军事行动,那么一个星期之内,我们就能够打到巴登,将法国人挡在国门之外。” Since sees after the railway network strategy of Austria Libyan government, Marshal Radetzky discovered railroad huge use militarily. 自从看到地利政府的铁路网战略过后,拉德斯基元帅就发现了铁路在军事上的巨大用途。 Since the railroad can be used to transport freight, naturally can also be used to transport the soldier, meanwhile can provide the logistics support effectively. 既然铁路可以用来运货,自然也可以用来运兵,同时还能够有效提供后勤保障。 The Southern Germany will area was not the dangerous spot, Austria benefits in these areas operated many years. Dispatches troops almost to sweep away, has the nationalists, when guides the party, these small state want to resist difficultly. 南德意志地区不是龙潭虎穴,地利在这些地区经营了很多年。出兵几乎就是横扫,有民族主义者当带路党,这些小邦国想要抵抗都难。 So long as the speed is fast enough, does not give these small state to collude with the opportunity of French, will not present the big accident. 只要速度够快,不给这些小邦国勾结法国人的机会,就不会出现大的变故。 Even does not need too for a long time, only to take 2-3 months, politically after levelled various countries' leadership, these German state armies can also change, resists the French invader with Austria Lijun team. 甚至不需要太长时间,只需要2-3个月时间,政治上摆平了各国领导层后,这些德意志邦国的军队还可以摇身一变,和地利军队一起抵抗法国侵略者。 After earning the support of local residents, Austria benefitted was situated in the invincible position. The present France, is not the Napoleonic Era, can push horizontally. 获得当地民众的支持后,地利就立于了不败之地。现在的法兰西,已经不是拿破仑时代了,可以一路横推过去。 Secretary of war Crown Prince Windisch Gretz says: Not is only the Southern Germany will area, if the French dispatches troops to intervene, there is the possibility and Sardinia kingdom begins in the Lombardy area together, causes our war on two fronts.” 陆军大臣温迪施格雷茨亲王开口说道:“不光是南德意志地区,如果法国人出兵干预,也有可能和撒丁王国一起在伦巴第地区动手,使我们两线作战。” Marshal Radetzky shakes the head saying: „ Doesn't matter, they hit their, we hit our. 拉德斯基元帅摇了摇头说:“没有关系,他们打他们的,我们打我们的。 If France dares to send the Italian area the main force, at the worst puts together the Italian area not to want, we project on Paris directly. 如果法国敢把主力派去意大利地区,大不了拼着意大利地区不要,我们直接打到巴黎去。 From the distance, we also profit. Can attack and occupy Paris I not to know, but we can with the French government gambling. 从距离上来说,我们还更占便宜。能不能攻占巴黎我不知道,但是我们可以和法国政府赌。 We lost at the worst is a Lombardy, if the gambling won, the price that the French must pay was big. ” 我们赌输了大不了就是一个伦巴第,要是赌赢了,法国人要付出的代价就大了。” Looks at two people disputes, everyone tacit has not participated. This is the effect that Franz wants, war department and General Staff Headquarters, if contradictory does not have, he must exchange the person. 看着两人的争议,大家默契的没有参与。这正是弗朗茨想要的效果,陆军部和总参谋部要是一点儿矛盾都没有,他就要换人了。 With trust irrelevant, this is the instinct of technique of emperor balance. 和信任无关,这是帝王平衡之术的本能。 If makes the subordinate be in cahoots, then they must deceive both superiors and subordinates, historically been built on stilts Emperor is not one two. 要是让手下人串通一气,那么他们就要欺上瞒下了,历史上被架空的皇帝可不是一个两个。 Similarly cannot make the subordinate fight is heavily engaged, everyone is busy internal fight, who works? 同样也不能让手下人斗得不可开交,大家都忙着内斗,谁去做事啊? After Crown Prince Windisch Gretz thinks, refuted: „ French is not the paper sticks, how possibly to attack and capture in a short time? 温迪施格雷茨亲王想了想后,反驳道:“法国人又不是纸糊的,怎么可能在短时间内攻克呢? Once is unable to attack and capture Paris, the war reached the impass, the French the advantage that battled in the native place manifested, they can mobilize hundreds of thousands of cannon fodders to come out quickly. 一旦无法攻克巴黎,战争陷入了僵局,法国人在本土作战的优势就体现了出来,他们很快就可以动员数十万炮灰出来。 These cannon fodder armies have not undergone the training, however in protecting our homes and defending our country, but can also make up for the training by the morale the insufficiency. 这些炮灰部队没有经过训练,但是在保家卫国的时候,还可以靠士气弥补训练的不足。 When the time comes is restrained the logistics supply, we still want futile draws back, but Italy that discards wanted to receive to be difficult. ” 到时候受制于后勤补给,我们依然要徒劳无功的退出去,而丢掉的意大利想要收回来就难了。” Saying that Marshal Radetzky refuses to admit being inferior: „ Even if could not attack and capture Paris, we can still make the French vitality damage severely. 拉德斯基元帅不甘示弱的说道:“就算是攻克不了巴黎,我们也可以让法国人元气大伤。 Their people can the concentration of effort defend Paris, other areas they had not guarded, if they are not willing to compromise, we kill and burn to plunder, ruin the industry and commerce systems of their northeastern areas. 他们人可以集中兵力保卫巴黎,其它的地区他们就没有守卫了,如果他们不肯妥协,我们就一路烧杀抢掠,毁掉他们的东北部地区的工商业体系。 Other does not dare saying that makes several million homeless refugees to come out, agitating these people to snatch, plunders, spreads the confusion to the entire France. 别的不敢说,制造几百万无家可归的流民出来,鼓动这些人去抢、去掠夺,将混乱扩散到整个法国去。 Their home could not take care of oneself, but can also not withdraw troops from the Italian area? Also is capable of stopping us to regain the Italian area on a Sardinia kingdom? ” 他们国内都自顾不暇了,还能够不从意大利地区撤军么?就一个撒丁王国还有能力阻拦我们收复意大利地区?” Really the old fogies are the ruthless role, if really did, it is estimated that the French estimated that more than ten years cannot recover, but among the Austria methods turned into the mortal enemy, the future international contradictory mainstream will be the Austria method is contradictory. 果然老家伙都是狠角色,真要是这么干了,估计法国人估计十几年都恢复不了元气,而法之间又变成了死敌,未来的国际矛盾主流就是法矛盾了。 What to do if makes Franz choose to be able? Naturally did, became the enemy in any case, what makes 50 and makes 100 to distinguish? 如果让弗朗茨选择会怎么办?当然是干了,反正都成了敌人,做五十和做一百有什么区别? Becoming enemies becomes enemies, who feared who? At the worst is affected to the English, did not challenge the thalassocracy to be good, the geographical position that Austria benefitted decided from the sea threat was almost zero. 结仇就结仇,谁怕谁啊?大不了对英国人装孙子,不挑战海权就行了,地利的地理位置决定了来自海上威胁几乎为零。 Fell face down dry/does French one time, the military spirit hit. Unifies Southern Germany will area from now on Austria to benefit the empire, is reborn completely. 干趴下了法国人一次,军魂就打出来了。统一南德意志地区过后的地利帝国,完全就是脱胎换骨。 Metternich worked as the peacemaker, saying with a laugh: „ Two such big anger, so long as we chose right the time, created the established facts, the French might tacitly approve very much. 梅特涅当起了和事佬,笑呵呵的说道:“两位不要这么大火气,只要我们选对了时机,造成了既定事实,法国人很很可能会默认。 They are not the fools, if I invest 300,000-400,000 armies in the Southern Germany will area, they do not have the same military, how possibly does the adventure dispatch troops? 他们又不是傻子,如果我在南德意志地区投入300,000-400,000军队,他们没有同等的兵力,怎么可能冒险出兵呢? The French wants to intervene us, the best dispatching troops route came from Rhineland, does the Prussia kingdom dare through giving them? 况且,法国人想要干预我们,最佳的出兵路线就是从莱茵兰过来,普鲁士王国敢借道给他们么? We begin, the Prussia kingdom will also follow up mostly, the French opposed that we unify the Southern Germany will area, is willing to look that the Prussia kingdom did unify the northern German area? 我们动手的时候,普鲁士王国多半也会跟进,法国人反对我们统一南德意志地区,难道就愿意看着普鲁士王国统一北德意志地区了? They west of Rhine eye covetously to the German land of federation, a powerful Prussia kingdom does not serve their benefits. 他们对德意志联邦在莱茵河以西的土地可是虎视眈眈,一个强大的普鲁士王国可不符合他们的利益。 In the future, in coping with the issue of French, we and Prussia still ally. ” 未来,在对付法国人的问题上,我们和普鲁士依然盟友。” Listened to Metternich's explanation happily, the people complexion one. The persimmon looks for soft pinching, bullying the weak and fearing the strong is the subject of this time. 听了梅特涅的解释,众人面色一喜。柿子找软的捏,欺软怕硬是这个时代的主题。 Thing that the French want not, in Austria benefits in the hand, even if they intervene the German area to be unified, essentially still for benefit. 法国人想要的东西又不在地利手中,就算是他们干预德意志地区统一,本质上也是为了利益。 Instead is the Prussia kingdom wants to preserve west of the Rhine territory, has dead to knock with the French. To compromise? Does the domestic nationalist element comply? 反而是普鲁士王国想要保住莱茵河以西的领土,不得不和法国人死磕。想要妥协?国内的民族主义分子答应么? The Franz sluggish opens the mouth said: „ Ok, the French issue ended. The present issue is the arms race of various European countries, our good neighbor Prussia kingdom not to can have supported. 弗朗茨慢吞吞的开口说道:“好了,法国人问题就此结束。现在的问题是欧洲各国的军备竞赛,我们的好邻居普鲁士王国已经撑不住了。 It seems like this Second Schleswig War has not hit white/in vain, in a short time the Prussia kingdom is hard to come out of the difficult position, this to us is also a good deed. 看来这场普丹战争没有白打,短期内普鲁士王国难以走出困境,这对我们来说也是一件好事。 Judging from the present situation, the Russia person started the time of war should in 1851, at the latest non- over in 1852, can we arms race escalation? ” 从目前的情况来看,俄国人发动战争的时间应该在1851年,最迟不会超过1852年,我们要不要把军备竞赛升级?” Without a doubt, in continental Europe the army can threaten the country that Austria benefits, only then Russia , France three countries. Now the Prussia kingdom fell into the financial crisis unable to follow, at this time the promotion arms race was the Russia , France Austria three countries. 毫无疑问,欧洲大陆上陆军能够威胁到地利的国家,就只有俄法普三国。现在普鲁士王国陷入了财政危机跟不上了,这个时候升级军备竞赛就是俄法三国。 Prime Minister Felix clenches teeth saying: „ Your majesty, we can bet the Russia person provokes after the war, the British Buddhist meeting dispatches troops to intervene, unifies the fighter aircraft of Southern Germany will area to appear. 费利克斯首相咬了咬牙说:“陛下,我们可以赌俄国人挑起战争过后,英法会出兵干预,统一南德意志地区的战机会出现。 Now the promotion arms race, first eliminates the Prussia kingdom to say again, few competitors, we are many a successful possibility. 现在升级军备竞赛,先淘汰掉普鲁士王国再说,少一个竞争对手,我们就多一份成功的可能性。 Lost, at the worst first implements the Balkan strategy, will not owe! ” 赌输了,大不了先实施巴尔干战略,怎么也不会亏!” Possibly how to owe? It looks like in Prime Minister Felix, does not go to westbound Germany, running to carve up the Balkan Peninsula is a losing money business. 怎么可能不亏呢?在费利克斯首相看来,不去西进德意志,跑去瓜分巴尔干半岛本来就是一项亏本的买卖。 Support that but to obtain Balkan sends, he was also ready for any sacrifice. The fighter aircraft appears on the unification Southern Germany will area, without presenting that can only hug the grass to hit the rabbit, went to the Balkan Peninsula to make up for the loss. 可是为了获得巴尔干派的支持,他也豁出去了。战机出现就统一南德意志地区,没有出现那就只能搂草打兔子,去巴尔干半岛弥补损失了。 Marshal Radetzky excited saying: Your majesty, this danger is worth braving, losing at the worst is several million shield, winning is the Southern Germany will!” 拉德斯基元帅激动的说道:“陛下,这个险值得冒,输了大不了就是几千万盾,赢了就是南德意志!” Truly lost, at the worst also on several million shield military spending. This does not calculate wastes completely, increased the military power. 确实输了,大不了也就几千万盾的军费开支。这也不算完全浪费,好歹增加了军事实力。 The Austria Libyan government is not the iron head, must brace oneself to/clashes upward. 地利政府又不是铁头,要硬着头皮往上冲。 If the international situation is disadvantageous, is unable westbound, but can also go to the south side to bully the Ottoman empire, makes up to lose. Even if Russia really runs to go to Far East to eat the ice piece, Austria benefits the individual farming not to instigate. 要是国际形势不利,无法西进,还可以去南边欺负奥斯曼帝国,弥补一下损失。就算是俄国真跑去远东吃冰块,地利单干也不怂。 Thought of here, in the Franz heart has made the decision. 想到了这里,弗朗茨心中已经做出了决定。
