London, Prime Minister John Russell is extremely discontented with the current European situation. 伦敦,约翰-罗素首相对目前的欧洲局势非常不满。 The Paris government gave the Russia person to provide a loan unexpectedly. Although British, this amount is not too big, only 100 million francs. But behind this political factor that contains, was fearful. 巴黎政府居然给俄国人提供了一笔贷款。尽管对英国人来说,这笔数额不算太大,只有区区1亿法郎。可是这背后的包含的政治因素,就非常可怕了。 Originally everyone discussed that UK , France donated money together, support the Prussia kingdom and Russia person have a client war. 本来大家商议好的,英法一起出钱出力,支持普鲁士王国和俄国人打一场代理人战争。 Now in the battlefield, Prussia Wang Guogang just presents the crisis, the French on impatient hitting a person when he is down. 现在战场上,普鲁士王国刚刚出现了危机,法国人就迫不及待的落井下石。 Perhaps looks like in the Paris government, this is the prompt stop-loss, by gaining a bigger return. Stands in the standpoint of English, Prime Minister John Russell is actually not able to tolerate. 或许在巴黎政府看来,这是及时止损,以获取更大的回报。站在英国人的立场上,约翰-罗素首相却无法容忍。 „ The European situation is deteriorating, France and Russia are closing up, the standpoint of Paris government changed, they have with the Russia person carve up the Prussia intention jointly. “欧洲局势正在恶化,法俄两国正在靠拢,巴黎政府的立场发生了改变,他们有和俄国人联手瓜分普鲁士的意图。 Perhaps must add on Austria to benefit, so long as France , Russia are willing to support the Austria advantage to annex the German federation, turned into the Russia , France Austria three countries to carve up continental Europe. 或许还要加上一个奥地利,只要法俄肯支持奥地利吞并德意志联邦,就变成了俄法奥三国瓜分欧洲大陆。 This is the worst situation, Russia , France Austria three countries each have to challenge our strengths. If made them carve up Europe, was hard to limit. 这是最糟糕的情况,俄法奥三国每一家都有挑战我们的实力。如果让他们瓜分了欧洲,那么就更加难以限制了。 For the strategic security in Britain, we must prevent all these from happening. ” 为了不列颠的战略安全,我们必须要阻止这一切发生。” John Russell has the strong crisis awareness, this seems like the general character of island country (Japan), is their successful sources of power. 约翰-罗素拥有强烈的危机意识,这似乎是岛国的共性,也是他们成功的动力源泉。 The European balance is the national policy of London government. Now European is still maintaining balanced, but makes the Russia , France Austria three countries day after day, has threatened their hegemon position seriously. 欧陆平衡是伦敦政府的国策。现在欧陆依然保持着平衡,可是日渐做大俄法奥三国,已经严重威胁到了他们的霸主地位。 The London government prepared first to suppress the Russia person, then shoulders law Austria to be contradictory using the Italian issue, making them divert in continental Europe mutually. 原本伦敦政府就准备着先把俄国人打压下去,再利用意大利问题挑起法奥矛盾,让他们在欧洲大陆上互相牵制。 The plan has not changed forever quickly, the contradictions of law Austria two countries have not lit, Russian Empire must break through the limit shortly, controlled Baltic Sea. 计划永远没有变化快,法奥两国的矛盾没有点燃,俄罗斯帝国眼看就要冲破限制,掌控波罗地海了。 The foreign minister Raistlin analysis said: „ Prime minister, this France , Russia closed up is the Tsar government first made the concession. 外交大臣雷斯林分析道:“首相阁下,这次法俄靠拢是沙皇政府先做出了让步。 The Russia person supports the French to annex the Rhineland area, in fact does not have the peaceful good intention. 俄国人支持法国人吞并莱茵兰地区,实际上也没有安好心。 Must know that Austria benefits, Belgium, Prussia and German federation, Spain and other countries to have the agreement, if a side will encounter France to invade them the joint defense. 要知道奥地利、比利时、普鲁士、德意志联邦、西班牙等国可是有协议的,如果一方遭遇法国入侵他们将联合防御。 Even the Russia person supports the French, is suddenly Austria or the union, the Tsar government is always impossible to dispatch troops to help the French go to war? 就算是俄国人支持法国人,可是俄奥还是同盟,沙皇政府总不可能出兵帮法国人打仗吧？ The nationalism is a double-edged sword, so long as we agitate the nationalism of German area, Vienna is unable to look on the French to annex the Rhineland area. 民族主义是一把双刃剑,只要我们把德意志地区的民族主义鼓动起来,维也纳就无法坐视法国人吞并莱茵兰地区。 Also there is a joint defense treaty, although the French is powerful, the strength that but Austria benefits is not also weak, in addition Spain, Belgium and German federation and other countries, French not many odds of success. 又有联合防御条约在,法国人虽然实力雄厚,可奥地利的实力同样不弱,加上西班牙、比利时、德意志联邦等国家,法国人没有多少胜算。 Napoleon III is not silly, is impossible takes risk without odds of success. 拿破仑三世不傻,不可能在没有胜算的情况下进行冒险。 ...... …… The Russia , France Austria three countries carve up continental Europe jointly, I think that this possibility is almost zero, first is the uneven distribution of the illicit money. 俄法奥三国联手瓜分欧洲大陆,我认为这种可能性几乎为零,首先就是分赃不均。 The thing that the Russia person can attain are too few, Austria benefits cannot give up the German area, after the Russia person obtains is Poland, the way forward by the Austria advantage dies of suffocation. 俄国人能够拿到的东西太少,奥地利不能够放弃德意志地区,俄国人获得普属波兰后,前进的路就被奥地利堵死了。 Naturally, if the Tsar government is willing to expand to the Northern European area. But Sweden is not the fruit cake, does not pay certain price is not possible to succeed. 当然,如果沙皇政府愿意可以向北欧地区扩张。可瑞典也不是什么软柿子,不付出一定代价是不可能成功的。 Is the Prussia war hits merely such strenuously, is the Russia person also capable of attacking Sweden? ” 况且,仅仅是普俄战争就打得这么吃力,俄国人还有能力进攻瑞典么？” This is the practical problem, although Russian Empire is powerful, but exhausted condition had revealed. If Russian Empire before Near East war, the Prussia kingdom has gotten the box lunch. 这是现实问题,俄罗斯帝国虽然强大,可是疲惫之态已经显露。如果是近东战争前的俄罗斯帝国,普鲁士王国早就领盒饭了。 The Tsar government has not depended upon human wave attack pile of dead Prussia, the main reason is the government does not have money. Increased the frontline army quantity, means that increased the military expenses expenses. 沙皇政府没有依靠人海战术堆死普鲁士,最主要的原因就是政府没钱。增加了前线的军队数量,也意味着增加了军费开销。 Battles in Northern European Lowlands, the rivers can transport the strategic resources, theoretically the Tsar government dispatches troops to 1 million even, can safeguard the provisioning. 在波德平原上作战,还有河流可以运输战略物资,理论上沙皇政府就算是出兵百万,都能够保障物资供应。 In the exhausted situation, carves up continental Europe with law Austria, they must suffer a loss. 在自身疲惫的情况下,和法奥瓜分欧洲大陆,他们显然是要吃大亏的。 Is is only the Polish area, so long as defeated the Prussia kingdom enough, in the needing fire took the millet completely. 仅仅只是普属波兰地区,只要打败普鲁士王国就够了,完全没有必要火中取粟。 „ No, Raistlin. These are theoretically, you must understand that Russian Empire is a dictatorship government. So long as Tsar thinks feasible, may become the reality. “不,雷斯林。这些都是理论上,你要明白俄罗斯帝国是一个独裁政府。只要沙皇认为可行,就有可能变成现实。 We cannot regard the Tsar decision the rational deduction. In fact, most Russia Tsar are irrational. 我们不能把理性的推论当成沙皇决策。实际上,大部分俄国沙皇都是不理性的。 Russia , France Austria rules as a dictatorship the government, so long as Emperor decides can form an alliance immediately, we cannot give them any opportunity of closing up. ” 俄法奥都是独裁政府,只要皇帝拍板马上就可以结盟,我们不能给他们任何靠拢的机会。” This is not Prime Minister John Russell is pessimistic, but is a state leader must consider. To Great Britain, now does not need any adventure, „steady” is most important. 这不是约翰-罗素首相悲观,而是一个国家领导人必须要考虑到的。对大不列颠来说,现在不需要任何冒险,“稳”才是最重要的。 Which step no matter French and Russian relations, confused their relations wrong always not. 不管法俄关系到了哪一步,搅乱他们的关系总是没有错的。 Affects Europe to stir the excrement stick, for hundred years the European half of contradiction is they shoulders, now arrives at the performance time. 作用欧洲搅屎棍,百年来欧陆一半的矛盾都是他们挑起的,现在又到表演的时候了。 ...... …… The Berlin government makes a move to obstruct, the English is also doing the destruction, Franz naturally cannot idle. 柏林政府出手阻挠,英国人也在搞破坏,弗朗茨自然也不能闲着了。 Was planned, certainly must counter-attack. However the loan contract was signed, naturally cannot tear up. Where from starts to counter-attack, becomes a realistic issue. 被人算计了,肯定是要反击的。不过贷款合同都签订了,自然不能够撕毁。从什么地方下手反击,成为了一个现实的问题。 Alexander II know that uses the civilized method, plans in the regular range in secret, Franz was naturally impossible to go bad the custom. 亚历山大二世都知道采用文明手段,在规则范围内暗中算计,弗朗茨自然不可能坏了规矩。 Supports Russian Empire's conservative faction? 支持俄罗斯帝国的保守派？ Improper! 不妥！ This is the Russia internal affairs ginseng/partake about is too deep, besides deteriorating relations between the two countries, without the least bit function. Franz does not think that this group of people, can fight Alexander II. 这是俄国内政参合太深,除了恶化两国关系外,没有半点儿作用。弗朗茨不认为这帮人,能够斗得过亚历山大二世。 Supporting secretly revolutionary party? 暗中支持革命党？ This is more impossible. As Emperor, Franz and revolutionary party natural situated in opposing camp, the matter that supports the enemy is not competent. 这更不可能。作为一名皇帝,弗朗茨和革命党天然处于敌对阵营,资敌的事情不能干。 The condition in Russian Empire is not good, what to do if were overthrown? 况且,俄罗斯帝国的状态非常不好,万一被推翻了怎么办？ The decayed Tsar government is Austria benefits the best ally, but new student/life Russia is Austria benefits the biggest threat, this risk Franz does not dare to brave. 腐朽的沙皇政府是奥地利最好的盟友,而新生的俄罗斯则是奥地利最大的威胁,这个风险弗朗茨不敢冒。 Instigated Russia person's relations with various European countries? 挑拨俄国人同欧洲各国的关系？ Seemingly does that is not useful, does not need Franz to act, now Tsar government already by honorable isolation. 貌似这么做没有什么用,都不用弗朗茨出手,现在沙皇政府已经被光荣孤立了。 ...... …… After pondering diligently, finally Franz helpless drew the conclusion: Under the big background of suddenly Austria Union, the short time cannot do to the Russia person. 经过冥思苦想,最后弗朗茨无奈的得出了结论:在俄奥同盟的大背景下,短时间奈何不了俄国人。 Foreign minister Wessenberg proposed: „Your majesty, the Tsar government set requirement, hopes that we helped re-equip a number of breech rifles.” 外交大臣韦森贝格提议道:“陛下,沙皇政府提出要求,希望我们帮忙改装一批后膛步枪。” Wartime years, even the Tsar government still takes seriously the weaponry. After feeling the might of breech rifle personally, they have to abandon the muzzle-loading rifle. 战争年代,即便是沙皇政府也非常重视武器装备。亲自感受了后膛步枪的威力后,他们也不得不抛弃前膛步枪。 Re-equipping the muzzle-loading rifle is the breech rifle, naturally to save cost. From this perspective, the Prussia war also has the contribution, at least made the Tsar government learn careful planning. 改装前膛步枪为后膛步枪,自然是为了节省成本。从这方面来说,普俄战争也不是没有贡献,至少让沙皇政府学会了精打细算。 Re-equips several hundred thousand rifles, is only a small-scale business. If not because the arms trade contains the political significance, does not need the two countries Ministry of Foreign Affairs to act to negotiate. 改装几十万条步枪,只是一笔小生意。如果不是因为军火贸易富含政治意义,都不需要两国外交部出面交涉。 Franz thinks saying: „ Un, lets them and capitalists discussed, we do not interfere with the free trade. 弗朗茨想了想说:“嗯,让他们和资本家谈,我们不干涉自由贸易。 Sends people to sell the breech rifle production line to the Russia person, our warehouse re-equipped the second hand goods that completed to sell to them in while convenient. 派人向俄国人推销后膛步枪生产线,顺便把我们仓库中改装完成的旧货卖给他们。 Remembers that told the Russia person, the might of breech artillery also has the advantage, suggested that they purchased a number of tests. ” 记得告诉俄国人,后膛火炮的威力也更加具备优势,建议他们采购一批试用。” Re-equips the muzzle-loading rifle to require the time, the officers affirmation of frontline, in this situation naturally only then bought to the Austria advantage. 改装前膛步枪可是需要时间的,前线的官兵肯定等不了,这种情况下当然只有向奥地利买了。 This is Near East in time of war, sells the dividend of Austria weapon equipment to the Tsar government. Besides earning adequate and systematic service fee/spent, when the outsourcing equipment, the Russia person also has to choose Austria to benefit. 这是近东战争时期,向沙皇政府推销奥械装备的红利。除了赚取配套服务费外,在外购装备的时候,俄国人也不得不选择奥地利。 After the Prussia war breaks out, the Tsar government the order to the Austria advantage, the procurement strategy commodity, the primary cause is everyone standards system is first same. 普俄战争爆发后,沙皇政府第一时间向奥地利下订单,采购战略物资,主要原因就是大家标准体系一样。 The road spread, Franz naturally cannot Russia to break out of the influence of Austria weapon equipment in this weapon revolution, this relates to the future strategic layout. 路都铺好了,弗朗茨自然不能让俄国人在这次武器革命中摆脱奥械装备的影响,这关系到未来的战略布局。 If the peace age, the Russia person naturally can conduct the weaponry to promote slowly, the breech weapons technology content is too high, nothing but spends for several years. 如果和平年代,俄国人自然可以慢慢进行武器装备升级,后膛武器技术含量又是太高,无非是多花几年时间。 No great nation, is willing to be under the control of others in the weaponry for a long time. Alexander II is not the unsuccessful generation, if not short of money, it is estimated that he has begun to the defense system. 没有哪个大国,愿意在武器装备上长期受制于人。亚历山大二世也不是碌碌无为之辈,如果不是缺钱,估计他早就对军工体系动手了。 What a pity the Russia person luck is not good, the previous weapon renewal came across the Near East war. For the time-saving, making the Austria weapon equipment the mainstream in army. 可惜俄国人运气不好,上一次武器更新换代遇到了近东战争。为了节省时间,让奥械装备成为了军队中的主流。 This weapon renewal, came across the Prussia war. The war will not wait for the person, Franz to prepare to the Russia person forces to sell a Austria weapon equipment. 这一次武器更新换代,又遇到了普俄战争。战争不会等人,弗朗茨又准备给俄国人强制推销一次奥械装备。 To get rid of the limit, knows that the Tsar government does have 1 million armies? Replaces to so many armies, but must replace the weapon production line, this need how much money? 想要摆脱限制,知不知道沙皇政府有百万陆军？给这么多军队换装,还要更换武器生产线,这需要多少钱？ Without money, that continued with. From the cost, purchases the Austria weapon armament system not to compare in any case directly researches and develops expensive/noble many independently. 没钱,那就继续用着好了。反正从成本上来说,直接购买奥械装备体系不会比自主研发贵多少。 As for does, can lose the independent R & D capability. This is not, considered that so many that the Russia bureaucrat cares how might as well think to get rich. 至于这么干,会不会丧失掉自主研发能力。这就不是俄国官僚关心的了,考虑那么多不如想想怎么发财。 The consecutively 2-3 generations use the Austria weapon war industry system, the weapon R & D personnel of Russia person were almost waste. In the future wants to break out of this aspect, has to foster the talent. 连续2-3代采用奥械军工体系,俄国人的武器研发人员就差不多废了。未来想要摆脱这种局面,就不得不重新培养人才。 Franz is understood why Alexander II was not feeling well to the Austria advantage, comes across this matter, changing anyone will not be happy. 弗朗茨算是理解亚历山大二世为什么一直对奥地利不爽了,遇到这种事情,换了谁都不会高兴。 What a pity this is the open intrigue, plans Austria to benefit to be the same with him. clear(ly) knew is the pit, Franz will also pound the really gold/metal silver, now the Tsar government similarly is also so. 可惜这是阳谋,和他算计奥地利一样。明知道是坑,弗朗茨也会把真金白银砸进去,现在沙皇政府同样也是如此。 Always not possible to guarantee the war industry is independent, ignores the frontline warfare requirements, making the soldiers take the backward muzzle-loading equipment, delivers the head/number of people to the enemy? 总不可能为了保证军工自主,就不顾前线战争需求,让士兵们拿着落后的前膛装备,给敌人送人头吧？ This is really delivering the head/number of people, the breech rifle can lie hitting, but the muzzle-loading rifle can only play the volley tactic. 这是真的在送人头,后膛步枪可以趴着打,而前膛步枪只能玩儿排枪战术。 So long as thinks to know, met in the battlefield, oppressive miserable. 只要想想就知道,在战场上遇到了,会被虐的有多惨。 Foreign minister Wessenberg explained: „ Your majesty, does not need us to sell actually, so long as delayed to re-equip the speed on the line. 外交大臣韦森贝格解释道:“陛下,其实不需要我们推销,只要拖延一下改装速度就行了。 Recently good of very Prussian performance, in the advantage using weaponry, caused heavy losses to the Russian force in the field operation repeatedly. 最近普鲁士人表现的很不错,利用武器装备上的优势,在野战中多次重创俄军。 Although the Russia person has the thalassocracy advantage, is attacking the coastal area of Prussia kingdom unceasingly, their is underprepared, is unable to exploit the victory. ” 俄国人虽然有海权优势,在不断打击普鲁士王国的沿海地区,不过他们的准备不足,无法扩大战果。” This is the core of issue. Theoretically so long as the Russia navy shields the army to land, blossomed around the Prussia kingdom interior, cannot want several months of Prussia kingdom to collapse. 这是问题的核心。理论上只要俄国海军掩护陆军登陆,在普鲁士王国内部四面开花,要不了几个月普鲁士王国就崩溃了。 However, the Tsar government has not been ready, the navy attacks coast of the Prussia kingdom to make truly well, what a pity the army not with the expanded victory. 然而,沙皇政府并没有做好准备,海军袭击普鲁士王国沿海做得确实不错,可惜陆军没有跟上去扩大战果。 Prussia both countries to are not far, the cross-ocean expedition cannot call, is the necessary logistics supply, must have. 普俄两国相距不远,跨海远征称不上,可是必要的后勤补给,还是少不了得。 Without a doubt, the Tsar government so many strategic resources, have not or had the means to transport now so many strategic resources. 毫无疑问,沙皇政府现在没有那么多战略物资,或者说是没有办法把那么多战略物资运送过去。 In order to supply the frontline army, the Tsar government must buy. This is Russian Empire productivity is not only insufficient, what is most essential is the transportation is extremely bad. 为了供应前线的军队,沙皇政府都必须要买买买。这不仅仅是俄罗斯帝国生产能力不足,最关键的是交通太过糟糕。 very soon is the Polish area is one of their granaries, food supply majority of St. Petersburg area from here, this lands loses now, the Tsar government naturally must adjust the grain from other area. 俄属波兰地区是他们的粮仓之一,圣彼得堡地区的粮食供应大部分都是来自这里,现在这片土地丢了,沙皇政府自然要从别的地区调粮了。 The railroad is not unimpeded, with carriage and ox cart transportation, since Ukraine and Moscow area transports/fortunes the frontline the commodity, at least takes a moon/month. 铁路不畅通,用马车、牛车运输,从乌克兰、莫斯科地区把物资运到前线,至少都要个把月。 This also wants the God show due respect for the feelings, if were winter that were more miserable, stepped onto for 2-3 months to have the possibility. Such bad transportation, not only increased the cost, but also limited materials transportation. 这还要老天爷给面子,如果是冬天那就更惨了,走上2-3个月都有可能。这么糟糕的交通,不光增加了成本,还限制了物资运输量。 The army combat of frontline, but can also benefit the import strategic resources from Austria of next door. The cross-ocean combat is not but good, even benefits the import commodity from Austria, must circle a big circle transportation. 前线的军队作战,还可以从隔壁的奥地利进口战略物资。可是跨海作战就不行了,就算是从奥地利进口物资,也必须要绕一个大圈子运输。 This is the Russia person own pot, if the war sends the navy to attack the Prussia coastal area from the beginning, then can also use the rivers of Polish area, transports/fortunes the commodity that imports from the Austria advantage. 这是俄国人自己的锅,如果战争一开始就派海军进攻普鲁士沿海地区,那么还可以利用波兰地区的河流,把从奥地利进口的物资运过去。 Now does not need to think, very soon was the most areas in Poland to fall into the enemy hand. At this time must conduct the materials transportation, either took the land route after the Belarus area, either took the sea route to circle a big circle along continental Europe. 现在不用想了,俄属波兰的大部分地区都落入了敌人手中。这个时候要进行物资运输,要么走陆路经过白俄罗斯地区,要么走海路沿着欧洲大陆绕一个大圈子。 Regardless of that road, limited materials transportation. 无论那一条路,都限制了物资运输量。 The Russia person can also from various European countries purchase strategic resources, what a pity everyone not buy the account of Russia person. Only if puts out the really gold/metal silver, otherwise no one does their business. 原本俄国人也可以从欧洲各国购买战略物资的,可惜大家不买俄国人的账。除非拿出真金白银,不然没人做他们的生意。 Because of the issue of financial resource, the Tsar government does not have the means to purchase the commodity from various countries wantonly, why this is also Alexander II anxiously the reason of lending money. 因为财力的问题,沙皇政府没有办法从各国大肆采购物资,这也是亚历山大二世为什么急着借钱的原因。 Only then solved the fiscal issue, they can assemble enough strategic resources, displays the navy advantage. 只有解决了财政问题,他们才能够筹集足够的战略物资,将海军优势发挥出来。
