Make France Great Again

Chapter 691 Not giving in

"Please forgive us for not being able to accept your harsh conditions! We believe that the terms you proposed are not treating us as equal countries, but treating us as a defeated country! "

A sneer appeared on Neserrodie's face, and she retorted with a hint of anger in her words.

"Defeated country?" Walevsky did not care about Neserrodie's indignation at all. He responded to Neserrodie without changing his face: "Are you a little too sensitive? We think that we Compared with the treaty you proposed when you forced the defeated countries to sign, these conditions are simply magnanimous! France did not ask you to give up any inch of land. The land you occupied (this corresponds to the Congress of Vienna, where the powers asked France to spit out Belgium and the Netherlands). , Alliance of Lai and Lai!), and it did not ask you to compensate for any war losses (in the Second Congress of Vienna, France compensated the four countries of Britain, Austria, Russia and Prussia for their losses.), and it also did not force the army to occupy the Crimean Peninsula. .

With such conditions, what else could the Russian Empire be dissatisfied with? "

Faced with Walevsky's connotative remarks, Neserrody felt very uncomfortable.

However, now that the form is stronger than the person, Neserrodie can't stand up and fight Walevsky in a duel.

Negotiate, negotiate, negotiate first and then conclude. Neserrodie decided to talk to Walevsky one by one first. If he could catch Walevsky's flaws in the negotiations, he could also win back the Russian Empire. One round.

"Mr. Walevsky, the conditions you mentioned are only conditions imposed by the victorious country on the defeated country!" Neserrode said to Walevsky with reason: "Russia has not yet been completely defeated. , we still have a huge army!"

"You're right! You do still have enough money to squander!" Walevsky nodded in agreement with Neserrodie and said, "If you hadn't taken these into consideration, then what is now on the table The thickness of the file is not just like this!

Moreover, the treaty requires the Russian Empire to recognize the territorial integrity of the Ottoman Empire and the Ottoman Empire’s right to deal with domestic Christianity... Are these wrong? As a sovereign (delimited) country recognized by Europe, shouldn’t the Ottoman Empire enjoy such treatment? "

"Sovereignty?" Neserrode looked disdainful. In his view, the so-called Ottoman sovereignty in Walevsky's mouth was just a poor excuse for Britain, France and Austria to exclude the Russian Empire from carving up the Ottoman Empire. .

If Britain, France and Austria really respected the sovereignty of the Ottoman Empire, the Austrian Empire would have left the Danube Principality long ago.

Nowadays, the Austrian Empire has not only failed to accumulate the Danube Principality, but has also established a new administrative structure in the Danube Principality, and sent Prince Metternich to concurrently serve as the Principality of Romania (the Principality of Wallachia and Moldova under the advice of Jerome Bonaparte) Governor-General of the Principality of Romania).

Anyone with a discerning eye can understand that the Austrian Empire is determined to completely annex the Danube Principality.

"Your country's understanding of sovereignty is really eye-opening to me!" Neserrode sneered slightly, and then continued: "However, we do not hold to the two conditions you just proposed. Opposing attitude!”

"So you mean you have opinions on the remaining two items?" Walevsky asked knowingly.

Neserrodie first glanced at Alexander II, and then responded to Valevsky: "That's right! We believe that Articles 2 and 3 seriously harmed the interests of the Russian Empire! It is difficult for us to Accept this condition!"

"So how do you want us to modify it?" Walevsky asked again.

"We hope that you can delete the second and third articles!" Neserrode immediately replied: "At the same time, we hope that the Danube Principality can be completely returned to the Ottoman Empire under the supervision of Britain, France, Russia and Prussia! Don't Let some countries take advantage of this loophole!"

"Isn't your condition a little too demanding?" Walevsky responded to Neserrodie: "Our second and third clauses are also based on the premise of protecting the interests of the Black Sea. It is a helpless move. After all, the cause of this war is that your unlimited expansion in the Black Sea region has aroused the fear of European countries and disrupted the long-lost peace in Europe. Therefore, we have no choice but to join forces with the Kingdom of Britain to The other side declares war.

Now that you want peace talks, you must demilitarize the Black Sea. Only in this way can you truly win the trust of the countries you invaded and eliminate the fear of you throughout Europe! "

"Mr. Walevsky, do you mean that our Russian Empire should give up the weapons to defend itself and open its mind?" Neserrodie responded to Walevsky.

"Yes!" Walevsky nodded, and responded to Neserrodie in a solemn voice: "Only by opening up can Russia regain the trust of Europe and win more partners!"

Neserrone said coldly, "I'm afraid that by then, what we have won is not a partner, but a pair of sharp steel knives! Our neighbors will never let go of this golden opportunity! Only Guns are the important weapons to protect our gateway to the Black Sea from being invaded!"

"The Russian Empire is only demilitarizing the Black Sea, rather than demilitarizing the entire Russia." Valevsky responded to Neserrodie: "Once the war starts, you can definitely send some soldiers there. Black Sea! Could it be said that the Russian Empire has even lost the courage to defeat the Ottoman Empire? "

After saying that, there was a hint of sarcasm on Walevsky's lips.

Neserrodie and Gorchakov's faces turned slightly red, and Alexander II's expression also showed a hint of displeasure.

At this moment, Jérôme Bonaparte, who was sitting next to Walevsky, also said: "If the Russian Empire is really worried about a possible sneak attack by the Ottoman Empire, then the French Empire can completely attack the Russian Empire. Safety guarantee.

Any country that attempts to attack Russia through the Black Sea will be regarded as an enemy by France!

In this case, Russia does not need to worry about attacks from the Ottoman Empire! "

"That's right! We can provide guarantee for the security of the Russian Empire in the Black Sea!" Walevsky also echoed, the smile on his face even more sarcastic.

"There is no need for a security guarantee!" Alexander II said coldly, "The Russian Empire cannot defeat the cowardly Ottoman Empire!"

"So, Your Highness, have you agreed to our second and third clauses?" Walevsky asked Alexander II.

"No!" Alexander II shook his head and responded to Walevsky: "I just said that we have the ability to defend the Russian Empire with our own hands.

and……"

Alexander II paused and said firmly to Jerome Bonaparte: "When our Russian Empire faced the situation in 1812, we were still able to burn Moscow with gritted teeth and continue to fight against the invaders!

Your Majesty, do you think the current situation can be compared with the situation in 1812? "

"Of course not!" Jerome Bonaparte shook his head and responded unhurriedly: "The situation in Russia is even worse than in 1812!"

"Oh?" Alexander II's face showed confusion. This was the first time he heard this argument: "I would like to hear the details!"

"Who were your country's teammates in 1812?" Jerome Bonaparte asked nonchalantly, and then quickly asked and answered: "Your country's teammates were Britain, Prussia, Spain, and Austria! What if? Without Britain supporting your weapons and equipment at all costs, without Spain holding back our 200,000 troops, and without the royalists in France passing on information, what could your army do!

You Russians always like to add all the labor of others to yourself, and then take it for yourself as a matter of course!

Do you really think you defeated my uncle on your own? No! You relied on all the countries in Europe that opposed the French Empire to defeat us!

What else do you have in the Russian Empire now? Your former partners betrayed you because of your invasion of the Balkans.

Britain, which once gave you a lot of money as support, is now also my ally!

Not to mention, the nobles who once crawled at your feet also found a new path after experiencing France.

They found that besides being loyal to the Tsar, they had other options!

Today's Russia is very different from what it was back then! If I'm not wrong, you have very few troops left in your hands. If this army in the Crimean Peninsula is destroyed, I don't know if you can still form an army of the same size!

Those nobles who were forced to surrender to the empire, ask Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com when they realize that you have no power, will you stand up and kill the king like the Decembrists did!

After all, every stroke costs a Tsar! "

"Enough!" Alexander II shouted loudly. He raised his head and gasped and said word by word to Jerome Bonaparte: "Your Majesty, if you come here just to mock us, then There is no need to continue this negotiation!

If you really want to have peace talks with us, then please show some sincerity! "

"Alexander!" Jérôme Bonaparte said to the future Alexander II calmly, "This is my greatest sincerity! If you are still not satisfied with the comparison, then please allow us to speak with the guns in our hands. !”
