Make France Great Again

Chapter 758: Disagreements in Poland

Latest website: When the grandfather clock placed in the ambassador's hall pointed to 1:55, the French Empire's Foreign Minister Walewski appeared in front of everyone.

Everyone, including the Earl of Clarendon, stood up and paid tribute to the minister in front of them.

As the arbiter of the entire peace conference, Walevsky first glanced at the eight ministers sitting at the round table, then glanced at the envoys from various countries in the audience, and slowly said: "Everyone, please take a seat! "

After hearing Walevsky's words, everyone present sat down one after another. Walevsky slowly walked to the center of the round table and sat down with his back to the portraits of Jerome Bonaparte and Augusta.

Walevsky, who was sitting in his seat, quietly waited for the meeting to start. Soon the grandfather clock placed in the hall made two dull tones, and the time had reached 2 o'clock when the meeting started.

As the arbiter of the conference, Walevsky stood up with a serious face and solemnly declared: "Thanks to the grace of His Majesty the Emperor of France and the Grand Duke of Luxembourg, Jérôme Bonaparte, I have been appointed to preside over this Near East Peace Conference. !

I sincerely thank all the ministers and envoys present for coming to Paris upholding the concept of peace and participating in this meeting that cheers for the future of the entire Europe!

I sincerely hope that through this meeting, we can promote the path of peaceful development across Europe!

Let the light of reason illuminate the whole of Europe again..."

Walevsky chose a grand tone at the beginning to name the main purpose of this meeting, which was to completely end the war between Britain and France against the Russian Empire.

The subsequent so-called peace concepts are just routine nonsense said by Walevsky. Everyone present knows the preciousness of peace, but peace is not worth mentioning in the face of absolute interests.

If there is not enough profit as the driving force for adventure, everyone present will become a pacifist.

Although everyone present knew these simple and easy-to-understand truths, they still had to wait patiently to hear Walevsky finish.

After all, this is the exclusive right of the arbitrating state.

When Walevsky finished speaking about the concept of peaceful development, everyone present also applauded Walevsky's speech as usual.

"Thank you all!" Walevski bowed humbly to everyone present, and then sat down again.

After the applause ended, Walevsky glanced at the people present with his peripheral vision, and said to them in an ups and downs tone: "Since we are a peace conference in the Near East, the countries in the Near East are indispensable!

Minister Fouad..."

Walewski turned his attention to Fuad, the Ottoman Foreign Minister. Fuad hurriedly stood up after hearing Walewski's cry.

Immediately afterwards, Walevski said to Fouad: "As one of the most important countries in the Near East, I want you to take the lead! What do you think?"

"Of course!" Fouad nodded and responded to Walewski.

"Then let's get started!" Walevsky replied with a smile.

Minister Fouad, who received Walevski's "fire" signal, immediately opened fire. He directly denounced the Russian Empire's persecution of the Ottoman Empire and claimed that this war was started entirely by the Russian Empire alone. The Russian Empire is therefore fully responsible.

Immediately afterwards, Fouad put forward "his" conditions (actually the conditions he had negotiated with Walevsky).

In addition to the conditions previously agreed by the Russian Empire, there is also the hope that the Russian Empire can withdraw from the Caucasus so that the Caucasus can become independent countries. At the same time, the Ottoman Empire must be compensated five million pounds in compensation.

Faced with Fuad's conditions, both Neserrodie, who represented the government of Prince Golitsyn, and Ambassador Gorchakov, who represented the orthodox monarchy's government, expressed opposition.

Ambassador Gorchakov said that Fuad's behavior was to take advantage of the Russian Empire. Their purpose was not to make up for their losses, but to solve the Russian Empire once and for all.

Neserrodie also claimed that Fuad's conditions were too harsh and that they clearly wanted Russia to die.

He believed that every country with conscience would not allow this to happen. After saying this, Neserrodie looked at Walevsky with deep meaning.

Seeing that his goal was achieved, Walevsky also spoke to Fouad, "Minister Fouad, we are discussing how to maintain peace in the Near East once and for all, not how to destroy Russia! Your conditions are a bit harsh. !”

After hearing this, Fouad quickly apologized to Neserrode and Gorchakov, and then sat down again.

Walevsky continued: "Minister Fouad's conditions are indeed a bit harsh for the Russian Empire, but this also provides a good start for our subsequent talks. I hope you can speak enthusiastically!"

Later, Walevsky turned his attention to the auditorium and said the same thing to the national envoys sitting in the audience: "If the representatives in the audience have any unique knowledge, they can also stand up and speak!

Our conference should not only be oriented to the entire Near East, but also to the entire Europe!

Each of your suggestions has the potential to become the cornerstone of peace throughout Europe! "

As soon as Walevsky finished speaking, Prince Czartoryski stood up from the audience and said to Minister Walevsky: "Your Excellency Walevsky, can you let me, an old man, say a few words?"

The nine ministers sitting at the round table showed different expressions on their faces. The representatives of Austria and the United Kingdom showed a smile on their faces; the representatives of Switzerland, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and France had blank expressions on their faces, while Russia The faces of the Prussian representatives showed helpless expressions.

"Of course!" Minister Walevsky deliberately pretended to be ignorant and asked Czartoryski: "Mr. Czartoryski, I don't know which country you represent now?"

"Minister Walewski, I represent Poland, my home country!" Czartoryski replied solemnly to the New Year's Eve.

"Poland, I remember that Poland should be under the rule of the Russian Empire! Shouldn't you and Russia belong to the same monarchy?" Walewski pretended to be ignorant to Char. Prince Toreski replied.

"Your Excellency, Minister, we did develop under the patronage of His Majesty Emperor Nicholas I before, but now we have broken away from the rule of the Russian Empire! Now Poland is an independent country!"

Although these conversations were rehearsed in advance, Prince Czartoryski still showed an excited expression when he said "Polish independence."

"Independence!" Minister Walevsky turned his attention to Ambassador Gorchakov and Nesserrodie and asked: "Mr. Nesserrodie, Mr. Gorchakov, Prince Chartorysky said Are those words true?"

"It's true!" Neserrodie and Gorchakov responded in unison.

And then he did not forget to put gold on his face and said that it was only because of the kindness of their monarch that the Polish people became independent.

Prince Czartoryski did not refute the fact that Ambassadors Neserrodie and Gorchakov drove the Polish people independently from the Russian troops in the Warsaw area as a voluntary withdrawal of the Russian Empire.

Although Poland and Russia are destined to become enemies, he still hopes that the time for the two countries to completely turn against each other will be slightly later.

"Mr. Czartokoski, what system are you planning to implement in Poland?" Walewski asked Czartoryski again.

"Mr. Walewski, we want to implement a monarchy in Poland!" Prince Czartoryski said to Walewski, "And we have already chosen a suitable monarch in Germany!"

"Can you please reveal who your chosen monarch is?" Walevsky then said to Prince Czartoryski. His purpose in saying this was just to tell Prussia and the Russian Empire from Czartoryski's mouth. , the candidate for the monarch of the Kingdom of Poland.

"We have chosen Archduke Maximilian, who is both of good character and good character, as the future Grand Duke of Warsaw!" Czartoryski replied to Jerome Bonaparte.

Immediately afterwards, Manteuffel, who was the Prussian minister, Neserrodie and Gorchakov unanimously disagreed with Czartoryski's opinion.

If Poland were handed over to the Habsburgs, Prussia and Russia would be in a dangerous situation!

At this time, the Earl of Clarendon expressed his attitude: "I think Archduke Maximilian can become an excellent monarch. What do you think of Mr. Ball?"

Clarendon turned his attention to Bauer, who needed a statement from the Austrian Empire.

"I don't know what purpose Prussia and Russia have in preventing Archduke Maximilian from going to Warsaw to succeed the Grand Duke, but our Austrian Empire firmly supports Poland's decision!" Count Bauer said to the Russian and Prussian representatives without showing any signs of weakness.

Regarding the matter of Archduke Maximilian succeeding the Archduke of Warsaw, the Austrian Empire has been advancing with the attitude that it will achieve this even if it goes to war with Prussia and the Russian Empire.

"Mr. Manteuffel, Mr. Neserrodie, Mr. Gorchakov, what is the reason for your objections?" Minister Walevsky asked the three ministers.

"As a former tributary of the Russian Empire, the Kingdom of Poland should be chosen by ourselves as a suitable successor!" Ambassador Gorchakov plausibly replied to Walewski, "So I propose that it should be established somewhere in the German region. Looking for a suitable person to be the king of this small country!"

"I agree too!" Manteuffel responded immediately.
