Struggle in Russia

If it was Li Xiao before time travel, then you don’t even need to think about it, just accept it when you see it. For ordinary people, it’s normal for Xiaofu Ji’an to be unwilling to take risks, but for him after time travel, the situation is different. .

Now that you have time-traveled, what are you still doing? Anyway, with his status, it is impossible to live a particularly comfortable life, but it is also difficult for the old man to force Nicholas I to kill him. So why not give it a go?

Take a gamble to turn a bicycle into a motorcycle, hit him with a hammer in Austria, and weaken this wonderful empire as much as possible, there are only advantages and no disadvantages!

Li Xiao quickly made a decision, and he said, "Weaken Austria, and even create more trouble for Paskovich, what do you think?"

Vishniak and Alexei were a little dazed, because someone hurriedly sent someone to call them over early in the morning, and then threw such a thing without saying a word, please forgive them for being a hangover , and the other looked bewildered, completely confused about the situation.

After a long while, Alexei was the first to ask back: "I can understand why Paskovich is making trouble, after all, we are on the side of Duke Mikhail...but isn't it a little...a little bit of that to weaken Austria? "

Although Alexey did not specifically say what it is, everyone can understand that the Holy Alliance has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the Russian political elites. They subconsciously think that Austria is their own and an ally, and the name of the allies behind it , which is a bit excessive no matter how you look at it.

Moreover, they believe that the existence of the Holy Alliance is still beneficial to Russia. If Austria is weakened, the Holy Alliance will also be weakened. No matter how you look at it, this is not a good thing.

Vishniak also nodded and said: "There is no need to weaken Austria, right? Although these grandsons are only good at putting on airs, they are still their own people, and they are much better than the bastards of Britain and France..."

Is it much stronger? Li Xiao didn't feel that way. It would be good if Austria, a political zombie, was dead. If Russia wanted to make a difference in Balkan and Turkish affairs, then Austria would be the biggest stumbling block.

The stupid Austrians are standing here, unable to expand further in the Balkans, and blocking the capable Russia's hands.

If Li Xiao were the tsar, this time he would take advantage of the opportunity of the Austrian revolution, and he would have to dismember anything, let Hungary and the Czech Republic be independent, kick the Habsburg family back to the Austrian ancestral grave, and by the way, be able to milk him Prussia, let this little partner be more powerful, let him give birth to the determination to help Russia distract Britain and France, so that these two families will not stare at Russia all day long.

Think about it, without the annoying fly of Austria, there would be no possibility of Russia and Prussia turning their faces on the Balkan issue.

After all, Prussia's focus is not in that direction, and it has no interest in Serbia.

In this way, everyone gets what they need, and everyone gets what they want. The only bad thing is that the Holy Alliance is completely finished. I am afraid that the dismembered Austria will also hold a grudge, and it may fall into the arms of Britain and France to deal with Russia together.

It's just that the threat of a completely dismembered Austria is not particularly great, and it is not a big problem even if it falls into the arms of Britain and France. Anyway, there is a circle of Hungary and the Czech Republic around this product. As long as the method is right, even this ticket of former younger brother is enough for an Austrian to drink a pot.

Another disadvantage is the issue of the Balkans and Turkey. Without the restraint of Austria, Britain and France may become more powerful. If these two countries join hands with Russia, they will really be unable to handle it. It may be more difficult to make a fuss about Turkey in the future, unless Russia can greatly increase its national strength, otherwise, don't take it easy on this side. Once it dies, it will inevitably lead to a violent reaction from Britain and France, and it may be a big war.

But even so, Li Xiao felt that the advantages of eliminating Austria would outweigh the disadvantages. Central and Eastern Europe does not need a strong empire, and a state of disunity is the best. Everyone can rest assured.

Of course, these are just Li Xiao's beautiful imagination, because he is not the tsar, and Nicholas I will never let go of the Holy Alliance, even if he is a prostitute, his IQ is really worrying.

Therefore, it is absolutely impossible to dismember Austria in a fair and honest manner. What can be done is to weaken Austria as much as possible and suppress its influence and strength to a minimum.

"Which one of you is related to the Kingdom of Sardinia?" Li Xiao asked suddenly.

Alexei and Vishniak were speechless for a while again. They really couldn't keep up with someone's rhythm. They were talking about how to mess with the Austrians one second, but why did they go to the Kingdom of Sardinia the next second?

"Of course it matters!"

Li Xiao sighed, the speed of his reaction to these two people was also amazing, and now he doesn't know what the Italians are thinking, how blind this must be!

"The Italians have been seeking to unify the Apennine Peninsula, don't you know?"

Vishniak and Alexei shook their heads together, because Russia really didn't care much about the mess in the Apennine Peninsula, one because it was too far away, and the other also looked down on the Italians and didn't think they could do anything.

[Daily shame noodles seem to be traditional. 】

Li Xiao sighed in his heart, but Mo Noodles was really not up to his expectations. In the First World War, by betting on both ends and stepping on two boats, they became the weakest powers, and then drifted away. As a result, Ethiopia was made unable to step down from Taiwan, which was a shame to the great powers.

Not to mention what happened 90 years later, just say that in 1848, the performance of the Kingdom of Sardinia, the representative of Italy, was enough. When Austria was in chaos due to the revolution and the independence movement, the Kingdom of Sardinia was about to come out to pick up the leaks and make troubles. As a result, the regular Austrian army who was beaten up by the Hungarian rebels was directly taught to be a man, which delayed the vigorous unification movement. For ten years.

If you calculate the combat power, the regular Austrian army can't beat the Hungarian rebels, and the Kingdom of Sardinia can't beat the regular Austrian army.

How can such fighting power be looked down upon? Naturally, neither Vishniak nor Alexei understood why someone asked about noodles. I don't even think that the noodles are capable of doing anything.

Li Xiao sighed and said: "The fighting power of the noodles is really worrying, but they are still qualified to be shit sticks. If they can do more things in the Apennines, they will be more busy than Austria. At that time, let's not say that there is an opportunity, at least Can you also help Duke Mikhail make the cake bigger!"
