Struggle in Russia

Chapter 479 Straight man

It's just that it's all bad, Lebouf won't let his own temper like a young angry youth. He definitely wouldn't tell the two people in front of him that he was here to "provide help", otherwise wouldn't he be taken advantage of?

Lebouf also saw Li Xiao's thoughts to some extent. Among the three factions of Kossuth, Artur, Bajani and Szechenyi, he was probably only going to choose one line of cooperation. Su Te, that's why Li Xiao threw out a lot of bargaining chips as soon as he came into contact with him.

Only when there is no way to cooperate with Kossuth, Li Xiao will choose other groups of people, so although he helps to make contact with Bajani and Szechenyi, he should not be too loose, otherwise no matter whether Kossuth knows Whether or not Artur finds out, things will get tricky.

Naturally, Lebouf could only speak in an official tone: "The French government has always been happy to maintain freedom, and it has also tried its best to promote the political ideas of democracy and freedom... After the Hungarian revolution broke out, our country believes that this is the just call of the Hungarian people, and we should actively promote it." understanding and support…”

This is not the first time I have heard of this bunch of nonsense. The Consul General of Perth has spoken many times before when the Hungarian responsible cabinet was first established, and also hinted that they should be more active in safeguarding Hungary's interests and their own interests. , as if the French care about the life and death of Hungary.

Baujani is too aware of what the French are planning. As Austria's old enemy, France naturally hopes that Austria will be as chaotic as possible, and will naturally choose to add fuel to the fire. If a few empty checks can make Hungary mad and Austria Hard top, the Frenchman might wake up laughing from his dreams.

But Baujani is not stupid. In fact, he doesn't like France. After all, he also agrees with Austria. In his opinion, the Hungarian revolutionary struggle should be a democratic struggle, and the core should be to strive for equal rights for everyone. interests of the privileged class. As for the stuff of nationalism, such as striving for the complete independence of Hungary from the control of Austria, he is actually not interested.

It is precisely because of the weak nationality that Baugiani is actually wary of the interference of foreign forces in France. After all, France and Austria are feuds. When the Holy Roman Empire and the Ottoman Turkish Empire fought desperately, France did not stand on the side of Christianity. On the national side, they flirt with Osman instead. A considerable number of artillery shells fired by Turkey on the city walls of Vienna were made in France. No Austrian can forget this period of history.

What's more, in the era of Napoleon, France took the Holy Roman Empire down from the throne. It was really old hatred and new hatred. Anyway, Austrian politicians were very wary of France!

Therefore, even an old politician like Baujani has no ambiguity in his awareness in this regard, and immediately replied firmly: "Thank you for your understanding and support, but the revolutionary struggle in Hungary is an internal problem in Austria. I believe that these problems can be solved, and we don't need additional support and help for the time being!"

Lebouf's heart is naturally full of criticisms,

No wonder Li Xiao was full of ridicule when he heard that he came to visit Bajani and Szechenyi, as if he knew that these two would not buy him...

Indeed, Li Xiao never had any hope for Bajani and Szechenyi, because he knew that these two could only be called Austrian human rights fighters, not Hungarian national heroes. They were happy that Hungary remained under the rule of the Habsburg family, but only hoped that this declining family would give Hungary more democracy and freedom.

In fact, such people are not rare in Hungary. After all, the Habsburg family has ruled Hungary for a long time, and they also brought Hungary together to resist the Ottoman Turkey. Everyone did not get along too badly. Many Hungarian nobles have become accustomed to this family. Rule, and not the idea of ​​complete independence.

Later, when the Austro-Hungarian Empire was established, the Hungarian political elites were actually quite satisfied and happy, and they were instantly forgotten by the cynics like Kossuth. Therefore, it is unrealistic to expect to use Bajani and Szechenyi to fight Austria desperately, it is simply wishful thinking.

Therefore, Li Xiao has only two goals from the beginning to the end, which are Kossuth or Artur, especially the former, who is a big angry youth. That is his key target. The conditions given are suitable, and he doesn't mind giving him his knee.

"Of course..." Lebouf laughed aloud, and then said a little unwillingly: "The revolutionary movement in Hungary is naturally Hungary's internal affairs. Our government has no will to intervene. Our government has always respected the choices of other countries, but In view of the current Habsburg family’s disapproval of freedom and democracy, they are already using iron and blood to stifle the just struggle of the Hungarian people, so our government believes that we should give more support to Hungary!”

Baojiani's expression still didn't change much, he didn't believe Leboeuf's words! It's just that Szechenyi is different. This brother is a bit straight, or a bit dude. Although he doesn't trust the French, as long as there is any way to avoid war, he is willing to try it.

So he interjected: "Mr. Lebouf, thank you for your understanding and support... The support we need most now is to use peaceful means to resolve the armed conflict between Hungary and Austria to avoid bloodshed... Can your country Shall we build a bridge of communication so that we can negotiate peace with the Austrian authorities?"

Lebouf felt like beeping the dog, he didn't want any peace negotiations! He just wants Hungary and Austria to have internal strife, just break the dog's head, let's talk about your sister!

Of course, there is still something to say on the scene, he replied: "Our government is naturally willing to provide this kind of help. It has also called on the Austrian authorities to stop the bloody suppression and resolve problems and disputes in a more peaceful way, but the Austrian authorities did not take it seriously. ..."

The subtext of Lebouf's words is: We in France have talked with the Habsburg family, but they are unwilling to negotiate, and they want to use cannons and bayonets to solve the problem. So, don't wait around and wait, take up your swords and guns to defend your home and country! As long as you are willing to fight, we French are the first to actively support!

It's a pity that Szechenyi is a straight man, and he couldn't understand the hint at all. Instead, he stabbed Leboeuf again bluntly: "Then your country can definitely initiate again and work harder to persuade. I believe that as long as we work together If you work hard, you can solve all problems by peaceful means..."
