After the 19 th century, the world polarization is getting more and more serious. Powerful nation is stronger, the weak country is weaker, the international situation had the tremendous changes. 进入19世纪后,世界两极分化越来越严重。“强国越强,弱国越弱”,国际格局发生了翻天覆地的变化。 The established empire seized the Industrial Revolution opportunity, first occupied the large amounts of resources, for own benefit, has started to suppress the successor. 老牌帝国把握住了工业革命的先机,抢先占据了大量的资源,为了自身的利益,已经开始压制后来者。 British Austria this making a move, seems like that to contain France expands, in fact is also the collision of new and old imperialist nation. 这次出手,看似是为了遏制法兰西扩张,实际上也是新老帝国主义国家的一次碰撞。 It is not each country is the US, the native place has the rich resources and market. The new country wants to rise, must seize the sufficient resources and market inevitably, this is the contradiction between new and old empires. 不是每个国家都是美国,本土就有丰富的资源、市场。新生国家想要崛起,势必要攫取足够的资源和市场,这就是新老帝国间的矛盾。 The Prussia kingdom strength is not weak, if will annex the Kingdom of Poland more powerful. Has the sufficient strength, has not actually attained the resources that matches, in the future the Prussia kingdom surely will be Challenger of order. 普鲁士王国实力不弱,要是吞并了波兰王国还会更加强大。拥有足够的实力,却没有拿到相匹配的资源,未来普鲁士王国必定是秩序的挑战者。 This and government whether the peace-loving not to relate. If did not develop the industry even, once the industry developed, the raw material and market were urge them to challenge the source power of the world order. 这和政府是否爱好和平没有关系。要是不发展工业就算了,一旦工业发展了起来,原材料和市场就是促使他们挑战世界秩序的源动力。 The speed that original space and time Second German Empire rises is too fast, the English overestimated the strength of French, when they responded the time of already late, can only be out to conduct a world war personally. 原时空德二帝国崛起的速度太快,英国人高估了法国人的实力,等他们反应过来的时候已经晚了,只能亲自下场进行一场世界大战。 In comparison, American who ocean another side rises on lucky many, the itself resources are rich enough, dresses up itself does not have the threat Uncle Sam, succeeded evaded the suppression of established empire. 相比之下,大洋另一边崛起的美国人就幸运的多,本身资源足够丰富,把自己装扮成没有威胁的“山姆大叔”,成功的躲过了老牌帝国的打压。 Quiet half sound time, foreign minister Friedman: „ Situation some are not right, British Austria conspires to keep secret highly, how possibly readily to make us discover? 沉寂了半响功夫,外交大臣杰弗理・弗里德曼:“情况有些不对,英密谋应该是高度保密的,怎么可能这么轻易的让我们发现? This, not only involves us, but also involved the French. The Paris government interior is not even steady, ignores brave Austria both countries will not plan them. ” 要知道,这不光涉及到我们,还牵扯到了法国人。巴黎政府就算是内部不稳,也不会放任英两国算计他们。” The information comes too easily, is the biggest loophole. Such conspiring, known person not necessarily over ten, and each one is the national tops, in the normal condition does not have the possibility of leaking. 情报来得太容易,就是最大的漏洞。这样的密谋,知道的人都不一定超过十个,并且个个都是国家高层,正常情况下是不存在泄密的可能。 William I at present one bright, asking of anticipation: You were said that in British Austria both countries a side divulged intentionally, this alliance was not sturdy, because benefit provisional joint?” 威廉一世眼前一亮,期待的问:“你是说英两国中一方故意泄露的,这个联盟并不牢靠,只是因为利益临时联合的?” Friedman shakes the head: „ No, British Austria both countries truly want to take away the Rhineland area from our hands, how just to give Germany in the issue of federal empire likely to have the difference. 杰弗理・弗里德曼摇了摇头:“不,英两国确实都想要从我们手中拿走莱茵兰地区,只不过在怎么交给德意志联邦帝国的问题上可能发生了分歧。 The German federation empire is in a state of disunity, that is the Hanover kingdom strength of leading central government is limited, without conforming with the strength of this country. 德意志联邦帝国一盘散沙,那是主导中央政府的汉诺威王国实力有限,没有整合这个国家的实力。 Hanover territory area only then 40% of this country, three points of population and economic output insufficient this country one. 汉诺威领土面积只有这个国家的40%,人口和经济总量都不足这个国家的三分一。 Affected by the system, the German federation empire highest authority Empire Parliament still retained a traditional state ticket. Regardless of the central government wants to do, the Empire Parliament can easily overrule. 受体制影响,德意志联邦帝国最高权利机构帝国议会仍然保留了传统的一邦国一票。无论中央政府想干什么,帝国议会都可以轻易否决掉。 So many years passed by, German federation or same as usual. Hanover want to conform with this country several times, was overruled by the Empire Parliament. 这么多年过去了,德意志联邦还是老样子。汉诺威几次想要整合这个国家,都被帝国议会否决了。 The German area split for several hundred years, everyone has been used to the state politics, wants to change this aspect is almost not possible. 德意志地区都分裂了几百年,大家已经习惯了邦国政治,想要改变这种局面几乎是不可能。 However the Rhineland area was in addition different, if the Rhineland area is been directly under by the central government, then the relative strength will change. 不过加上莱茵兰地区就不一样了,如果莱茵兰地区由中央政府直辖,那么实力对比就会发生变化。 Even if independent Hanover kingdom wants to throw off the table, is not following one group of state opponents jointly, but the Rhineland area central government had the absolute advantage in addition. 单独一个汉诺威王国就算是想要掀翻桌子,也不是下面一堆邦国联手的对手,可是加上莱茵兰地区中央政府就占据了绝对的优势。 Stands in the standpoint of Vienna government, does not have the issue to the German federation empire the Rhineland area, but must join by the state status. 站在维也纳政府的立场上,把莱茵兰地区给德意志联邦帝国没有问题,但是必须要以邦国的身份加入。 Let the Hanover kingdom do in a big way, does not favor the Austria advantage implementing the German unified strategy. This is the English most wants to do exactly, British Austria both countries have the serious difference from the beginning. 让汉诺威王国做大,不利于地利实施德意志统一战略。这恰恰是英国人最想干的,英两国从一开始就存在着严重的分歧。 Possibly both countries broke off conversation, the Vienna government decides to spoil the plan of English, held the news simply. ” 可能两国谈崩了,维也纳政府决定破坏英国人的计划,干脆把消息捅了出来。” This had been close to the truth of fact, now news divulging, wants to complete the original plan is not not possible again. 这已经接近了事实的真相,现在消息泄露,再想完成原来的计划就不可能了。 Not is only the outside world, the German federation empire does not comply. The central government wants directly under Rhineland, following one pile of small state will not disburse money not only, will also overrule this territory to trade using the Empire Parliament jurisprudentially speaking. 不光是外界,德意志联邦帝国内部都不答应。中央政府想要直辖莱茵兰,下面一堆小邦国不光不会出钱,还会利用帝国议会从法理上否决掉这次领土交易。 Only if conducts to create the established facts in secret, otherwise the German federal government does not handle the interior. 除非是暗中进行造成既定事实,要不然德意志联邦政府连内部都搞不定。 Originally is a loose federation, how many differences of middle ages the German, the following vassal state has not been convinced, what to do can Emperor? 本来就是一个松散的联邦,和中世纪的德意志没有多少差别,下面的诸侯国不买账,皇帝能怎么办? By the strength of Hanover kingdom, even if wants the military force to unify the German federation, they do not have that strength. Let alone outside also has the Austria advantage to eye covetously, not good to build oneself. 以汉诺威王国的实力,就算是想要武力统一德意志联邦,他们也不具备那个实力。何况外面还有地利虎视眈眈,一个不好把自己都搭进去了。 William I rubbed the forehead, over 70-year-old he, the energy is not abundant, this complex international situation too waste brain. 威廉一世揉了揉额头,年过七旬的他,精力已经没有那么充沛,这种复杂的国际形势太废脑子了。 Now his unusual contradiction, on the one hand does not want to see that the German federation empire grows strong, increases the national defense pressure of Prussia kingdom ; On the other hand wants the German federation empire to be powerful, cuts off German path of unification that Austria benefits. 现在他非常的矛盾,一方面不想看到德意志联邦帝国发展壮大,增加普鲁士王国的国防压力;另一方面又想要德意志联邦帝国强大起来,断绝地利的德意志统一之路。 At this time he regretted, if willing adventure in the past, benefitted two points of German area with Austria, the present pattern was different. 这个时候他非常后悔,如果当年肯冒险,和地利两分德意志地区,现在的格局就大不一样了。 Oh!” “唉!” Sighs, William I: The leeway that „ we choose is not big, now wants takes away the Rhineland area from our hands perhaps is not only British Austria both countries. 叹了一口气,威廉一世:“我们选择的余地不大了,现在想要从我们手中拿走莱茵兰地区的恐怕不光是英两国。 It is estimated that the Paris government also has the similar idea, after all Rhineland area independent, falls into the German federation empire hand, or merges with Belgium, the ratio keeps in our hands to be easier to take. 估计巴黎政府也有同样的想法,毕竟莱茵兰地区无论是独立,还是落入德意志联邦帝国手中,又或者是和比利时合并,都比留在我们手中更容易拿到手。 You thought how now to do, serves our benefits? ” 你们觉得现在怎么做,更符合我们的利益?” Prime minister Moltke: „ First removes sells to France, if fell into a native of France hand, balanced must be broken. 首相毛奇:“首先排除出售给法兰西,要是落入了法国人手中,平衡就要被打破了。 Perhaps when the time comes Austria benefits unable to divert the French, no one knows that Napoleon IV was the second Napoleon, ignores France expands is too dangerous. 恐怕到时候地利也无法牵制住法国人,谁也不知道那位拿破仑四世是不是第二个拿破仑,放任法兰西壮大太危险了。 Remaining nothing but is to make the Rhineland area independent, or sells to Belgium and German federation empire received exchange for a fund. 剩下的无非是让莱茵兰地区独立,或者是出售给比利时、德意志联邦帝国换取一笔资金。 The latter also involved the struggle of British Austria, one time was stood in line. From the current situation, we do not suit in the great nation stand in line, this was too dangerous. 后者还涉及到了英之争,又是一次站队。从目前的情况来说,我们不适合在大国中站队,这太危险了。 I thought that sold to Belgium to receive in exchange for a fund, serves our present benefits, at present what is most important annexes Poland, then digests, preparation and war of Russia person. ” 我觉得卖给比利时换取一笔资金,更加符合我们现在的利益,眼下最重要的是吞并波兰,然后消化掉,准备和俄国人的战争。” Right is „the present benefit, from the long-term development, definitely is preserves the Rhineland area most to serve the Prussia benefit. 没错就是“现在的利益”,从长远发展来看,肯定是保住莱茵兰地区最符合普鲁士的利益。 However this is not possible, the established empire is not silly, only if they give up annexing Poland, otherwise is good at playing balanced British Austria both countries, will not give up inevitably. 然而这是不可能的,老牌帝国又不傻,除非他们放弃吞并波兰,要不然擅长玩儿平衡的英两国,必然不会善罢甘休。 In the long run, even if makes the Rhineland area independent, grasps Rhineland in secret, still compared with selling out serves the Prussia benefit. 长远来看,就算让莱茵兰地区独立,暗中掌握莱茵兰,也比卖掉更符合普鲁士的利益。 In a short time was different, the Berlin government is poor, can control the Rhineland area even in secret, that will still be the future matter, at present first solves good of financial crisis. 短期内就不一样了,柏林政府穷得叮当响,就算是能够暗中控制莱茵兰地区,那也是未来的事情,眼下还是先解决财政危机的好。 Sold to the German federation, must stand in line. Now the Berlin government was in the English the debt, stands in line only to be able on the side of the standing English. 卖给德意志联邦,就必须要进行站队。现在柏林政府欠了英国人一屁股债,站队只能站英国人一边。 The present to was refreshed, but offended Austria to benefit, in the future Prussia war what to do? 现在到是爽快了,可是得罪死了地利,未来普俄战争怎么办? According to the plan, the Berlin government prepares to win over Austria to benefit beats Russian Empire thoroughly. Does not solve Russia person mortal enemy, Prussia can never be peaceful. 按照计划,柏林政府可是准备拉拢地利彻底击垮俄罗斯帝国的。不解决俄国人这个死敌,普鲁士永远都不能安生。 Secretary of war Rowen: „ Without is so simple, do not forget the French. If the Paris government adventure dispatches troops to seize the Rhineland area, what to do we should? 陆军大臣罗恩:“没有那么简单,不要忘了法国人。如果巴黎政府冒险出兵占领莱茵兰地区,我们又该怎么办? I do not think the Austria advantage fights a war for the Rhineland area and French, if they want to act, France annexes Italy time began. 我可不认为地利会为了莱茵兰地区和法国人打一仗,他们要是想出手,法国吞并意大利的时候就动手了。 I thought that the strategy of Vienna government did not unify the German area, the territory that Austria benefitted is big enough, the population were also many enough, did not lack anything. 我觉得维也纳政府的战略并不是统一德意志地区,地利的领土已经够大了,人口也足够多,根本不缺什么。 From the practice of Vienna government, this looks like their political slogans. Austria benefitted occupies the most Balkan Peninsula, now is attacking the Ottoman empire. 从维也纳政府的做法来看,这更像他们的一个政治口号。地利已经占据了大半个巴尔干半岛,现在又在进攻奥斯曼帝国。 If the progress seized the Asia minor peninsula smoothly, east bank of Mediterranean Sea is their territories, simply is Byzantine Empire second. ” 如果进展顺利占领了小亚细亚半岛,地中海东岸都是他们的领土,简直就是拜占庭帝国第二。” Rebuilds Byzantine Empire, this ambition not unifying the German area is smaller. The Austria advantage has not shouted is rebuilding Byzantine Empire, but the territory area is beyond control everyone not to associate. 重建拜占庭帝国,这个野心可丝毫不比统一德意志地区小。地利没有嚷嚷着重建拜占庭帝国,可是领土疆域由不得大家不联想。 William I hits to block the way: „ The Austria advantage wants to do, is not we can prevent. If they really have that big ambition, to us is also a good deed. 威廉一世打断道:“地利想要干什么,不是我们能够阻止的。他们真要是有那么大的野心,对我们来说也是一件好事。 Must reappear Byzantine Empire, with their conflicts of interest biggest is the Russia person and French. Annexes the Italian area from Vienna government ignores France, then first aims at should be the Russia person. 要重现拜占庭帝国,和他们利益冲突最大的就是俄国人、法国人。从维也纳政府放任法国吞并意大利地区来看,那么接下来首先针对的应该是俄国人。 Before Russian Empire falls from power, we can cooperate. However what the Habsburg family most excels is the diplomacy, rather than military. 在俄罗斯帝国倒台前,我们都是可以合作的。不过哈布斯堡家族最擅长的是外交,而不是军事。 Franz is outstanding person, will succeed to the throne Austria to benefit the unceasing expansion of use diplomatic means from now on, I do not think that they suddenly will become such radical, this very possible will be the smoke shell that they will put intentionally. ” 弗朗茨更是其中的佼佼者,继位过后地利利用外交手段的不断扩张,我不认为他们会突然变得这么激进,这很可能是他们故意放出来的烟雾弹。” ...... …… The Berlin government is intertwining, the Paris government is very lively. In the government the factional dispute is unceasing, Napoleon III suppresses are enlivened by the republican faction, the Austria good faction and orthodoxes that. 柏林政府在纠结,巴黎政府很热闹。政府中派系纷争不断,被拿破仑三世打压的共和派、尔良派、正统派都活跃了起来。 Napoleon IV prestige is insufficient, without suppressing the ability of all political forces, can only according to the plan that Napoleon III leaves behind, plays balanced in various factions. 拿破仑四世威望不够,没有压制各方政治势力的能力,只能按照拿破仑三世遗留下来的计划,在各派系中间玩儿平衡。 The imperial authority safeguarded, was the factional strife actually serious. Is cliquish to be led into the government service unfortunately very much, to oppose to oppose, is the common matter. 皇权是保障了,可是党争却严重了起来。很不幸党同伐异被带入到政府工作中,为了反对而反对,更是常有的事情。 By the French empire that all parties dread, is unable to make the decision at this time unexpectedly, this made Napoleon IV have a headache. 被各方忌惮的法兰西帝国,在这个时候居然迟迟无法做出决定,这令拿破仑四世非常头疼。 If not the confession of father, he must act arbitrarily, made the decision directly. He bore luckily, will otherwise know the lower limit of bureaucrats quickly lowly. 如果不是父亲的交代,他都要独断专行,直接做决定了。幸好他忍住了,要不然很快就会知道官僚们的下限有多低。
