French was anxious!” “法国人急了!” After receiving news that the French released, Gladstone drew this conclusion. 收到了法国人释放出来的消息后,格莱斯顿就得出了这个结论。 Britain is in the disadvantage is not false in the War in Afghanistan, has not actually arrived can make the British government panic situation. 不列颠在阿富汗战争中处于劣势不假,却也没有到能够令英国政府惊慌失措的地步。 Even if the Afghan area falls to the enemy completely, so long as the frontline British armed forces main force has not been annihilated, Great Britain has energy that won the war. 即便是阿富汗地区全部沦陷,只要前线的英军主力没有全军覆没,大英帝国就有赢得战争的底气。 Does not have other reason, in the pocket rich, the back is such unyielding. Hundred years of Great Britain accumulate, are not crack a joke, put together the background to come, the Russia person is unqualified. 没别的原因,兜里有钱,腰杆子就是这么硬气。大英帝国的百年积累,可不是开玩笑的,拼起底蕴来,俄国人根本就不够格。 Foreign minister George analyzes saying: „ European war conducts now, the fond dream that the French wants to fight a battle to force a quick decision, had been ended. 外交大臣乔治分析道:“欧陆战争进行到现在,法国人想要速战速决的美梦,已经被终结了。 The following war, both sides spell is the comprehensive national strength. Although the army of France is strong, is in other domains, their disadvantages were too obvious. 接下来的战争,双方拼的就是综合国力。法兰西的军队虽然强大,可是在其他领域,他们的劣势太明显了。 Judging from the present situation, if the French cannot pass the Rhine in a short time, burns the flames of war to the German center, their strategical advantages must lose entirely. 从目前的情况来看,如果法国人不能在短时间内度过莱茵河,将战火烧到德意志腹地,他们在战略上的优势就要丧尽了。 Then greets their, is Austria benefits inexhaustible counter-attacking. It can be said that the time that this war continues is longer, the French won the probability of war to be lower. 接下来迎接他们的,就是地利无穷无尽的反攻。可以说,这场战争持续的时间越长,法国人赢得战争的几率就越低。 According to the current war intensity, most continues again for 2-3 years, the French could not hit. ” 按照目前的战争强度,最多再持续2-3,法国人就打不下去了。” Obviously, George does not favor the French now. All-round strength disparity of both sides was too big, spells to consume the French to suffer a loss. 显然,乔治现在不看好法国人。双方的综合实力差距太大,拼消耗法国人太吃亏了。 But the prestige of French armed forces is too abundant, no one can guarantee that French armed forces can overturn at crucial moments in the reverse direction. 只不过法军的威名太盛,谁也不敢保证法军会不会在关键时刻逆势翻盘。 After all similar case, in France and battle history of Habsburg dynasty, has presented many times. 毕竟类似的案例,在法兰西和哈布斯堡王朝的争斗史中,已经出现过很多次了。 Put out after a document, the First Lord of the Treasury understands to govern Gordon said with a smile: „ Perhaps 2-3 years, your excellency too overestimated the strength of French. 拿出了一份文件过后,财政大臣晓治・柴尔德斯笑道:“2-3年,阁下恐怕太高估法国人的实力了。 In my opinion, without the external force involvement, the French can support in 1891, is a question mark. 在我看来,如果没有外力介入,法国人能不能撑过1891年,都是一个问号。 The issue on military, first regardless does not raise. We first calculate an economic aspect, then re-evaluates the strength of French. 军事上的问题,先抛开不提。我们先来算一笔经济帐,再重新评估法国人的实力。 This is the data that Ministry of Finance collects, recently in three months, total amount of import-export trade between we and French, increased 5.1 times compared with the same period last year. 这是财政部收集的数据,最近三个月内,我们同法国人之间的进出口贸易总额,较去年同期增加了五点一倍。 And the exports to France increased 6.5 times, the import trade total amount withered 64.7%, realizes the trade surplus 64.86 million pounds. 其中对法出口贸易额增加了六点五倍,进口贸易总额萎缩了百分之六十四点七,实现贸易顺差6486万英镑。 This is also only the trade with us, if counted France's trades with other countries, in 1890 the final quarter French trade deficit will not be lower than 120 million pounds. 这还只是同我们之间的贸易,如果算上法兰西同其他国家的贸易,1890年最后一个季度法国人对外贸易逆差不会低于1.2亿英镑。 If this war did not end, the trade deficit of French, will also continue to increase. 如果这场战争不结束,法国人的对外贸易逆差,还会持续增加下去。 Especially the law is Africa soon to fall to the enemy, once lost this stretch of raw material habitat, the commodity that the French needs to import were more. 尤其是法属非洲即将沦陷,一旦丧失了这片原材料产地,法国人需要进口的物资就更多了。 In those days , the arrogant French wanted to strive for the currency hegemony, continuously in the foreign promoted franc, the aegis and pound that in the hand had are not many. 往日里,傲气十足的法国人想要争夺货币霸权,一直都在对外推广法郎,手中持有的神盾和英镑都不多。 According to the current spending rate, the foreign exchange reserves of how long French will unable to exhaust. When the time comes they can only with the golden coming out trade, depend on their pitiful gold reserves, basic on the support several days. 按照目前的消耗速度,要不了多久法国人的外汇储备就会耗尽。到时候他们就只能拿黄金出来贸易,就凭他们那可怜兮兮的黄金储备,根本就支撑不了几天。 This is the perfect condition, the real situation will be perhaps more serious. From Napoleon III, financial deficit policy that the French government has adopted, is heavily in debt. 这还是理想状态,真实情况恐怕还会更加严重。从拿破仑三世开始,法国政府就一直采取的财政赤字政策,早就是债台高筑了。 In the situation in underprepared, launched this war in a hurry, my finance to the Paris government really does not have the confidence. ” 在准备不足的情况下,就匆匆发动了这场战争,我对巴黎政府的财政实在是没有信心。” Is France rich? 法兰西有钱么? Without a doubt, as France of the world 's third largest economic power, can be the local tyrant absolutely. 毫无疑问,作为世界第三大经济强国的法兰西,绝对算得上是土豪。 However, France is rich, was not equal to that the French government is rich. If the frontline is well underway, French Financial group naturally can vigorously to assist, otherwise was different. 然而,法兰西有钱,不等于法国政府有钱。如果前线进展顺利,法国财团自然会倾力相助,反之就不一样了。 The capital borderless, did not chat. If really the matter cannot , the capitalists not be buried along with the dead with the government. 资本无国界,可不是说笑的。真要是事不可为,资本家们可不会和政府一起陪葬。 What the war spells is the manpower, physical resource and industrial strength, financial resource that in the final analysis puts together. 战争拼的是人力、物力、工业实力,归根结底拼的还是财力。 Simultaneously supports many fronts, the pressure that France sustains, is much bigger than the world war of original space and time, and did not have the ally help to share, having the problem will be sooner or later matter. 同时支撑多条战线,法兰西承担的压力,比原时空的世界大战都要大得多,并且还没有盟友帮忙分担,出现问题是早晚的事情。 Took a fast look around a report form sketchily, asking that Gladstone has doubts: How to increase so many to the law trade surplus, I remember volume of trade increase not so many?” 粗略扫视了一眼报表,格莱斯顿疑惑的问:“对法贸易顺差怎么增加了这么多,我记得贸易量增加的并没有这么多?” Must know that the volume of trade between UK , France may be big, the import trade reduces can understand, after all the French is going to war, without time production a lot of commodities brings the exit|to speak. 要知道英法之间的贸易额可不小,进口贸易减小可以理解,毕竟法国人在打仗,没有功夫生产大量的商品拿来出口。 But the export trade, increased more than six times suddenly all of a sudden, that was a myth. 可是出口贸易额,突然一下子增加了六倍多,那就是一个神话了。 Fully does not conform to the economic law, because of the reason of war, the French increased the strategic resources to import, was impossible is so exaggerating. 完全不符合经济规律,即便是因为战争的缘故,法国人加大了战略物资进口,也不可能这么夸张。 Without the means that cannot produce! Even if the capitalists go all out to expand the capacity, still needs the time cushion, this three months? 没办法,生产不过来啊!即便是资本家们拼命扩充产能,也是需要时间缓冲的,这才三个多月呢? „Very simple, the commodity that we exit|to speak rose in prices!” “很简单,我们出口的物资都涨价了!” The First Lord of the Treasury understands to govern Gordon at a moderate pace replied. 财政大臣晓治・柴尔德斯不紧不慢的回答道。 Law Austria both countries internationally raid the commodity, all commodity prices presented the rises in varying degrees. “法两国在国际上哄抢物资,所有物资价格都出现了不同程度的上涨。 Especially the strategic resources price, compared with pre-war, basically turned time. The prices of certain scarce drugs, rose 34 times. 尤其是战略物资价格,和战前相比,基本上都翻了倍。某些稀缺药品的价格,更是上涨了三四倍。 Naturally, we enhance with various European countries in abundance to the law tariff, urges one of factors the price rises. ” 当然,我们和欧洲各国纷纷提高对法关税,也是促使物价上涨的因素之一。” The capitalists take advantage, this is the inevitable result. But this time does is more ruthless, but were many Austria that drives up the price benefits, seemingly turns time is not hard to make one accept. 资本家趁火打劫,这是必然的结果。只不过这次干得太狠一些,不过多了一个哄抬物价的地利,貌似翻倍也不是那么难以令人接受。 Asking that Prime Minister Gladstone cares about: „Does Austria benefit?” 格莱斯顿首相关心的问:“地利呢?” The First Lord of the Treasury understands to govern Gordon shakes the head: „ Is just the opposite with the French, the commodity that the Austria advantage needs to import are few, basically can be self-sufficient. 财政大臣晓治・柴尔德斯摇了摇头:“和法国人恰恰相反,地利需要进口的物资非常少,基本上都能够自给自足。 Even if there are insufficient, still imports from Russia. Outside influences relatively small by. 就算是有所不足,也是从俄罗斯进口。受外界影响相对较小。 Although the price rose, but the total trade volume with us, actually do not rise instead to fall. 物价虽然上涨了,但是他们同我们之间的贸易总额,却是不升反降。 Naturally, the interception of French Navy, being hinders us to benefit one of the trade reasons with Austria. 当然,法国海军的拦截,也是阻碍我们同地利贸易的原因之一。 Every so often, even signed the contract, is unable to fulfill normally. ” 很多时候,就算是签订了合同,也无法正常履行。” A Gladstone brow wrinkle, this result and he estimates complete different. Was counting on, law Austria both countries exhauste the strength through this war mutually, consolidates the sea hegemon position of Britain. 格莱斯顿眉头一皱,这个结果和他预想中的完全不一样。原本是指望着,法两国通过这场战争互相消耗实力,稳固不列颠的海上霸主地位。 But the plan has not changed quickly. Using this war, Britain truly butchered a French blade ruthlessly, what a pity ran Austria to benefit. 怎奈计划没有变化快。利用这场战争,不列颠确实狠宰了法兰西一刀,可惜跑了地利。 No matter how in the international market the price rises suddenly, is not big with suddenly Austria trade ties. After all the Tsar government benefits the receiving in exchange strategic resources in the exit|to speak industrial material and Austria, if really rises in prices, that also rises together upward. 不管国际市场上物价如何暴涨,和俄贸易关系都不大。毕竟沙皇政府在出口工业原材料和地利换取战略物资,真要是涨了价,那也是一起往上涨。 You pay for whatever you get, the Russia person naturally does not need to collect this liveliness. 羊毛出在羊身上,俄国人自然没必要凑这个热闹。 Then France became the only victim, after all fries the high commodity to be easy, wanted to fall the price to be difficult again. 然后法兰西就成了唯一的受害者,毕竟炒高物资容易,再想要把物价降下去就难了。 After hesitant moment time, Prime Minister Gladstone said slowly: Ministry of Foreign Affairs first negotiated with the French, so long as the French is willing to come out to exchange with the benefit, looks for a reason the tariff, or exempted the tariff simply.” 犹豫了片刻功夫后,格莱斯顿首相缓缓说道:“外交部先和法国人谈判,只要法国人肯拿利益出来交换,就找个理由把关税给将下来,或者是干脆免关税。” This is in the scope of authority, Gladstone can the biggest help that the French provides. Can fall as for the price, that wants the skill of view Countryman. 这是权限范围内,格莱斯顿能够给法国人提供的最大帮助。至于物价能不能降下去,那还是要看法国人自己的本事。 After all the capitalist is not affable, the government forces to order them to reduce prices, that will cause the popular anger. 毕竟资本家也不好惹,政府强制勒令他们降价,那是会引发众怒的。 After all what now purchases the commodity is the French government, is not the British government, Gladstone does not absolutely need to offend the person for them. 毕竟现在购买物资的是法国政府,又不是英国政府,格莱斯顿根本就没必要替他们得罪人。 Matter of bargaining, wants French to go to and capitalist strives. Can have many harvests, must look at their offering a very low price abilities. 讨价还价的事情,还是要法国人自己去和资本家争取。能够有多少收获,就要看他们的杀价能力了。 Foreign minister George: „ Ministry of Foreign Affairs does not have the issue. However, cuts the tariff merely, this support perhaps also insufficient. 外交大臣乔治:“外交部没有问题。不过,仅仅只是削减关税,这个支持力度恐怕还不够。 Wish makes the French and Austria altruistic exhaustes the strength together, we must find the way to increase the economic strength of French, or lends them directly. 想要让法国人和地利人一起消耗实力,我们必须要想办法增加法国人的经济实力,或者是直接借钱给他们。 Economically supports at the same time, we must limit the military power of French, cannot make the warring parties present the strength imbalance. Must achieve this point, unusual difficulty. ” 在经济上支持的同时,我们还要限制法国人的军事实力,不能让交战双方出现力量失衡。要做到这一点,非常的困难。” The fraught with uncertainty, is the true portrayal of British government. On the one hand was constrained the most energy of government by the War in Afghanistan, on the one hand must maintain the balance between law Austria. 畏首畏尾,就是英国政府的真实写照。一方面被阿富汗战争拖住了政府的大半精力,一方面又要维持法之间的平衡。 For fear that triggers what accident, causing the situation to lose control. It can be said that this is British Ministry of Foreign Affairs for dozens years, most challenging time. 生怕引发什么变故,导致局势失控。可以说,这是英国外交部数十年来,最有挑战性的时刻。 Prime Minister Gladstone helpless nod of: „ First tries! Behind acts according to the actual situation, adjusts. 格莱斯顿首相无奈的点了点头:“先尝试一下吧!后面再根据实际情况,进行调整。 Was consumed before the strength of law Austria two countries significantly, we must carefully handle affairs, so as to avoid situation out-of-control. ” 在法两国的实力被大幅度消耗前,我们必须要慎重行事,免得局势失控。” ...... …… Negotiated opened while UK , France, Alexander III in St. Petersburg, welcomed his new toy- airplane. 在英法谈判开启的同时,远在圣彼得堡的亚历山大三世,也迎来了他的新玩具-飞机。 Watches the exquisite flight formation performance, the mood of Alexander III is especially happy, high-spirited asking: „Can this batch of airplanes, when invest into the battlefield in?” 看着优美的飞行队列表演,亚历山大三世的心情是格外舒畅,意气风发的问道:“这批飞机,什么时候能够投入到战场上?” Looked that the performance turns over to watch the performance, Alexander III has not forgotten to introduce the real motive of airplane. 看表演归看表演,亚历山大三世还是没有忘记引进飞机的真实目的。 In the European war has proven, the airplane to boarding the airship slaughters. In order to increase the frontline odds of success, Alexander III earnestly hopes that this batch of airplanes can serve earlier. 欧陆战争中已经证明了,飞机对上飞艇就是屠杀。为了增加前线的胜算,亚历山大三世迫切希望这批飞机能够早点儿服役。 Secretary of war Ivanov: „ Your majesty, we did not have the pilot. The airplane and airship are different, request to pilot, is stricter. 陆军大臣伊万诺夫:“陛下,我们还没有飞行员。飞机和飞艇是不一样的,对驾驶员的要求,也更严格一些。 The war departments had reached the agreement with Austria altruistic, is helped train a group of pilots by them, at present has started to arrange. 陆军部已经和地利人达成了协议,由他们帮忙训练一批飞行员,目前已经开始筹备中。 If no accident/surprise, after three months, our first airplane brigades, can enter the army service. ” 如果不发生意外的话,三个月过后,我们的第一支飞机大队,就可以进入部队服役了。” The short three months, must train a group of pilots. Under this speed, the pilot who trains, naturally cannot be what elite. 短短三个月时间,就要训练出一批飞行员。在这种速度之下,培养出来的飞行员,自然不会是什么精锐。 In any case the enemy is only an airship, does not need to test the overall quality of pilot, can pilot the airplane, to launch the attack normally, was almost sufficient. 反正敌人只是飞艇,不需要考验飞行员的综合素质,能够正常驾驶飞机、发起攻击,差不多也就够用了。 The remaining part of knowledge , the pilot accumulated to experience slowly in the following actual combat, the Russian force must be fastidious about the efficiency in any case now, satisfied quickly on the line. 剩下部分的知识,飞行员在后面的实战中慢慢积累经验好了,反正现在俄军要讲究效率,满足快就行了。 Heard „for three months, all smiles of Alexander III, disappeared suddenly all of a sudden. 听到了“三个月”过后,亚历山大三世的满面笑容,突然一下子就消失了。 So to be how slow, can't speed up some progress again? “怎么这么慢,难道就不能再加快一些进度么? Must know that the frontline tactical situation is urgent, a day invests the battlefield the airplane early, we can a day capture the sky from a native of Britain hand early! ” 要知道前线战况紧急,早一天将飞机投入战场,我们就能够早一天从英国人手中夺取天空!” Facing the request of Tsar, the innermost feelings of Marshal Ivanov are the collapse. According to the Austria altruistic view, can train in three months the pilot, is rare. 面对沙皇的要求,伊万诺夫元帅的内心是崩溃的。按照地利人的说法,能够在三个月内将飞行员训练出来,就已经非常的难得了。 Perhaps the quick words, the quality not high accelerated class, the quality did not have the means to safeguard. 再快的话,本就质量不高的速成班,质量恐怕就更没办法保障了。 Ivanov braces oneself to reply: „ Your majesty, the pilot is the emerging technology branch of the services, we do not have the training experience in this aspect, can only learn/study Austria altruistic. 伊万诺夫硬着头皮回答道:“陛下,飞行员是新兴技术兵种,我们没有这方面的培养经验,只能学习地利人。 If wants to pick up the speed, I suggested to integrate in the training class the airship pilot, should be able to save a lot of time. ” 如果想要加快速度的话,我个人建议将飞艇驾驶员纳入培训班中,应该能够节省不少时间。” Is the stupid idea, in addition Ivanov does not know. Tsar had asked in any case, he cannot do without the idea. 是不是馊主意,伊万诺夫尚且不知道。反正沙皇已经问了,他就不能没有主意。 How as for the effect, to reach an agreement when the time comes again. In any case is the emerging branch of the services, the war department not familiar situation, the miscalculation is also passable. 至于效果怎么样,到时候再说好了。反正是新兴兵种,陆军部不熟悉情况,判断失误也说得过去。 ......... ………
