The world is always full of coincidences. Nicholas II, who was hesitating whether to start the Siberian Railway, decided to practice after learning about the changes on the front line.

Obviously, after the logistics problems of the front-line troops, they did not ask him, the Tsar, to respond to the problems, but instead asked for help from the Allied Command controlled by Shinra, which deeply stimulated Nicholas II.

In order to get rid of the influence of Shinra, Nicholas II no longer cares about delving into the true purpose of Americans.

The railway will not run away. As long as the Siberian Railway is built, no matter what Americans have to do, the initiative will be in the hands of the Tsarist government.

Any "conspiracy" is not worth mentioning in the face of absolute strength. Apart from Britain and Austria, there is no third country in the world that the Tsarist government can fear.

The Siberian Railway was launched, and the Vienna government had not responded yet, and Carlos, who was in exile, could no longer sit still.

There was no way, the Russians did too much. In order to save the people's strength and win over the people's hearts, Nicholas II decided that all the workers needed for the Siberian Railway would be recruited from France.

Anyone with a little brain knows what the hell is Siberia.

With Mao Bear's usual style, you don't have to think about it, the logistics of the workers must be guaranteed. If French workers really go to Siberia to build railways, they will definitely be a life-threatening death.

Since the outbreak of the Continental War, France's young and strong labor force has dropped significantly. The number of soldiers killed in the Continental War alone exceeded the battle in the original time and space.

In addition to the losses in the civil war, the losses of population loss, and the labor losses caused by disability. In just six years, the number of young and strong men in France decreased by at least three million.

On the surface, the number of three million does not seem to be particularly large. But don’t forget that at its peak, France had a total local population of only more than 30 million.

According to the calculation of 40% of the young and middle-aged people, the total number of young and middle-aged workers in the country is only 123 million. After half of each male and female are divided by two, the total population of young and middle-aged men is only 6 million.

What does it mean for a country to reduce the number of young and strong men by half?

Original Space-Time France was killed more than one million in World War I and was injured and hundreds of thousands of disabled people. It did not recover until the outbreak of World War II, so there is no need to think about it now.

You should know that although the French army in the original time and space time had suffered heavy casualties, the total population did not decline much, and the current total population of France has dropped by one-third.

At this point, everything about sleeping on firewood and tasting gall or revenge is nonsense. If the Russians continue to harm this way, the Ottoman Empire is a lesson for the past.

No matter what others think, Carlos is really afraid anyway.

After going through so much, Carlos has seen it clearly? The one who really wants to suppress France is not the Russians on the surface? It is the Vienna government, which is behind the scenes.

Even if the Resistance Alliance defeated the Russians, it would be useless. The anti-French alliance could have another anti-French war. Starting from the intervention of the Allied Command? This war has begun to undergo a qualitative change.

According to the current situation? No matter how the war against Russia ends, France is the biggest loser.

Just look at the destructive power of the Russian army? Even if they are wiped out, France will suffer a lot.

It’s just that it’s easy to start a plan? It’s difficult to terminate it. Whether it’s the Russians? or the resistance organizations distributed all over the country, it’s impossible to stop just by his words.

...

Seeing the return of the Foreign Minister, Carlos hurriedly asked: "What do the Austrians say? What conditions do they need to interfere in the atrocities of the Russian army's forced recruitment of men?"

Anyway? Talk to the Vienna government that follows the rules? It is better to talk to the Tsarist government that does not follow the rules.

The Vienna government also needs to pay attention to eating behavior. The Russians do not have so many concerns, as long as there is a benefit, it is enough.

There is no doubt that recruiting workers from France to build Siberian Railway can reduce the pressure from the people?   It is beneficial to the Russian Empire.

In this context, no matter how they protested to the Tsarist government, it was a waste of effort.

Foreign Minister Pietro replied bitterly: "I'm sorry, Your Majesty. The Vienna government is very indifferent? It doesn't give us any chance to communicate in depth.

Although Wesenberg verbally promised to condemn the Russian army's forced recruitment of men? But this condemnation has no meaning.

Can you tell? The Austrians have already accused of the Russian army's atrocities? There is no intention of interfering at all."

There is no betrayal or not, the grudge between Shinra and France can be traced back to the Frank Empire thousands of years ago. For the sake of continental hegemony, the two countries have been fighting since the Middle Ages.

The Vienna government has too many reasons to suppress France, but it cannot find a reason to support France.

The final result is: they want the Vienna government to conduct interest transactions, but they can't even get a chance to negotiate.

Carlos sighed: "The Russians have begun to act, France is crying, and the people are almost unable to hold on.

If we cannot convince the Vienna government to intervene, we can only fight the Russian army in advance. In any case, we cannot let the Russians take our people away."

Unlike the previous exile, the Russians forced their men to recruit them this time, which was simply cutting off the roots of France. If they don’t fight back at this time, there will be no chance to fight back in the future.

If the Russians were allowed to take away one or more young and eighty million young men, then France would enter the countdown to its demise.

If the opportunity really arises, the anti-French alliances will not mind and divide France again.

...

Potentials are forced out, and in the face of the threat of life and death, the French also burst out with amazing potential.

Since the news of the Russians forcing their men to recruit, French people who were overwhelmed have joined the resistance organization, and the French resistance movement has reached its climax for a while.

The people in China are fighting to the death, and overseas expatriates are not idle either. They donate donations and donate goods while launching public opinion offensives.

Governments of various countries have not responded yet, but public opinion has been in full swing. With the efforts of the French, the atrocities of the Russian army spread throughout the European continent.

Even Frederick, who was in the Vienna Palace, felt the pressure. Although people from Europe were not interested in France, it did not mean that everyone could tolerate the Russian army's reckless efforts.

After thousands of years of division, the European world has never lacked "crisis awareness". Especially the people of small countries, they performed particularly well.

As soon as the sentiment of "the death of the rabbit and the fox" came out, public opinion began to sympathize with the experience of the French people, and even Shinra voices opposed the atrocities of the Russian army appeared.

Looking at the newspaper in his hand, Frederick rubbed his forehead. Although the Vienna government has a news control bill, such solid international news is not restricted.

If you want to blame, you can only blame the Russian army for being unsuccessful and not even doing confidential work, making things known to everyone.

In front of me, I was playing robbery, murdered, and was secretly filmed by someone; now I have forced the men to recruit, and the news has been flying all over the world.

Being scolded was entirely self-inflicted. If it weren't for the limitations of his identity, Frederick would have wanted to write an article in person and publicly criticize the Russian army's atrocities.

Although Shinra had a grudge against France, it was mostly a historical issue. As a winner, except for the people in the Duchy of Luxembourg and the Rhineland region in the west, others were not very touched.

It is natural for humans to sympathize with the weak, especially when the Russians continue to make trouble, the ordinary people's dissatisfaction with the Tsarist government becomes even more intense.

As time goes by, more and more media have joined the ranks of criticizing the Russian military's atrocities. Every day, well-known people in society write letters to the government, hoping that the Vienna government can fulfill its responsibilities as a major power and interfere with the inhumane behavior of the Russian military.

"Your Highness, King Carlos is here again."

The voice of the attendant sounded, pulling Frederick back to reality from his contemplation.

Recently, Carlos seemed to be clocking in to work and had to go to the palace every day. At first, Frederick was still receiving the goods in a normal manner, but later he was really annoyed and simply dealt with it in a symbolic way.

Every time he talks about the same thing, normal people will feel annoyed. But Carlos seemed to know it and ran to the Vienna Palace without hesitation.

Well, this was also forced out. As the King of France, Carlos had to do something when he was suffering in the country.

If you can’t find effective measures, you can only show it. No matter what the real effect is, Carlos’s perseverance is still widely recognized.

Although he was forced to go into exile overseas, European media generally have a low opinion of Carlos.

As a raft for others to gain reputation, Franz's reputation has long reached its peak, so naturally he can ignore this little thing; Frederick is no longer able to do it, as the crown prince, he also needs to gain reputation.

Everyone wants to be the protagonist, and no one wants to become the supporting role in the story. If it weren't for the bad influence, Frederick would have ordered the expulsion of Carlos long ago.

Frowning, Frederick said helplessly: "Please come here!"

No matter what, he is also a king, and the etiquette he should have must not be missed. As an old antique in the European monarchy world, Franz avoided seeing what no one would say. If Frederick followed suit, he would be criticized by the noble circle.

...

Looking at Frederick with an impatient look, Carlos took the lead and said, "Your Highness, the Russian atrocities in France have blatantly violated the Treaty of Vienna, which is something that the civilized world cannot tolerate.

As the head of the civilized world and the leader of the European world, the Holy Roman Empire should assume the responsibility of a great power and stop the Russians..."

Before he could finish his words, Frederick rolled his eyes: "Your Majesty, we have talked about these issues many times. Once again, the Holy Roman Empire had no intention of dominating the world, and there was no obligation to your country.

As for the atrocities of the Russian army, I suggest that Your Majesty should talk to the Tsarist government. This is a matter between you two countries, and I believe you can handle it well."

If you have to foolishly interfere with the Russians' actions for a few words of flattery, Frederick will become a fool.

From the standpoint of the Vienna government, the best choice is to allow France and Russia to fight. The more casualties and injuries the two countries, the more stable the hegemony of Shenluo will be.

If the Russians could really destroy France, Frederick would not mind helping the Tsarist government reimburse military expenses, and could even give an additional bonus.

Just think about it. Hatred has been planted, but it cannot be eliminated in a short time.

Long before the Russian troops were led to station in Paris, the Vienna government made a plan, namely: to use the Russians' hands to attack France's resistance and to wipe out their desire for revenge.

Judging from the current situation, the Russians completed their mission beyond their level. Although hatred still exists, the goal of hatred has changed.

The French, who originally wanted to revive the anti-French alliance, have now lowered their goal to expel the Russians.

This is a good start. As long as this situation lasts for a few years, the French people will only remember this enemy of the Russian Empire.

Carlos tried hard to win: "But your Highness, now thousands of French people live in dire straits. You don't want to do anything for them?"

After getting up and looking out the window, Frederick replied coldly: "I don't want to!"

"Anyone has to pay the price for the choices he has made. From the beginning of France's invasion, all of this fate is doomed.

When snow-capped mountains collapse, no snowflake is innocent. Now the people of your country are just paying for their previous actions.

Your country has also done what the Russian army has done to other countries back then. Italian countries, Belgium, Luxembourg, and the Rhineland region have suffered no more disasters.

You can't do it when you do it to others, but now it's your turn to be unlucky, so it won't work?"

"Sarcasm" without any concealment. Obviously, Frederick was extremely impatient and had no thoughts to circle around.

As for whether Carlos can accept this, it is not within his consideration. Anyway, Frederick only has one idea now, which is to send Carlos away as soon as possible so as not to cause trouble for himself.

The method is indeed a little bit clumsy, but the effect is very obvious. Carlos was so angry that his face was blue and purple, as if it could explode at any time.

However, Carlos, who grew up from setbacks, quickly realized the problem and quickly restrained his emotions.

"Your Highness, you are too paranoid. The war was initiated by the Napoleonic government, and the capitalists were behind the scenes. Ordinary people had no chance to choose.

They were deceived into chariots, and like Belgium, Sardinia and other countries, we are all victims of war.

Now..."

Frederick, who had no intention of participating in the quarrel, immediately interrupted: "Your Majesty, it is meaningless to distinguish between you and me here.

Unless you can convince the people of Shinra in Luxembourg and Rhineland to give up your hatred, we will not be able to support your country.

Rather than wasting time here, you might as well think about how to recover.”
