Foreign Minister Wesenberg analyzed: "Although the Polish independence movement hit the Russians, it also ignited the war on the European continent.

Affected by the success of the Polish uprising, revolutions have frequently erupted in the European continent in recent times, and a new wave of revolution has arrived.

Starting from January, the two Sicily kingdoms, the Papal Kingdom, Spain, and Portugal have all broken out, and there have been chaos to varying degrees in Switzerland, France, Ireland and other regions.

Most of these revolutionary organizations have recently returned to the European continent from the United States. It is preliminary to judge that this is a desperate attempt by the federal government, and they have this motivation and strength.

The decisive battle that President Lincoln had high expectations was because neither side could afford to lose, and both chose to fight steadily, which directly turned the battle into a war of attrition.

The federal government is worried that countries will continue to divide the United States and will choose to create chaos on the European continent at this time in order to disperse the energy of governments.

It is no secret that Americans fund the Revolutionary Party, and their influence on the Revolutionary Party is self-evident. It’s just that there is no big news, and this layer of window paper has never been broken.

Now that things have happened, European countries will soon react. At that time, Americans are likely to regard these revolutionary organizations as abandoned children in exchange for understanding from various countries.

If the pressure is put in place by everyone is large enough, they might be able to make a loss. However, if this disruption is made, the UK, France and the West will not be able to increase their investment in the United States in the short term.

With the alliance's strength in America at this time, it is not a big problem to split the North and South sides. This is the result of the Southern Government.

If you want to split the United States again, you will be unable to do it. At most, you will make the Indian region that is allied with the South independent. However, this will not affect the strength of the federal government. After the split, they will still be two medium-sized powers.

In terms of development potential, both the northern government and the southern government have the potential to become a powerful country.

In the Americas they have no real opponents, and the division just delays their time to become a powerful country. As long as they have enough population, they can develop."

This American Civil War surprised many Europeans. The American Civil War, which originally thought it was a farce, actually broke out with the potential for war that shocked everyone.

If there is no division, the Americans' strength is almost the same as that of Spain, and dominating a continent is almost invincible.

While everyone was plotting to break the United States apart, the unwilling federal government finally fought to the death, disrupting the deployment of all parties.

Prime Minister Felix added: "Not only foreign chaos, but many people in China can't help but start to move.

These people are secretly connecting, and it is estimated that it will take not long before they will make a big news. In order to catch all these people in one go, we did not alarm the enemy.

As the outbreak of the Prussian-Russian War, we were also restrained by the European continent's affairs. At this time, there were hidden dangers in the country and we were unable to increase our investment in the Americas in the short term."

This is a conspiracy as a precaution. Even if countries know that it was done by Americans, they can't do anything to them now, and they don't even have to worry about settlement after the fall.

Spain has many internal conflicts, and now the prelude to the revolution is beginning, and I don’t know when it will be quelled.

The Irish independent organizations and the revolutionary party are causing trouble, and there are opposition parties to pull themselves back. Internal conflicts are enough to keep the London government busy for several years.

Not to mention France, with Napoleon III's style, I may have to take the opportunity to go deep into southern Italy, and France and Austria are likely to have a conflict over this.

It was the Prussian-Russian War and the possible outbreak of the French-Austrian conflict. Franz did not have the courage to take the risk to find the bad luck of the Americans at this time.

After everyone recovered, the American Civil War would have ended long ago. If nothing unexpected happened, Lincoln would have been out of here. Even if countries wanted to settle the score in the fall, it would have nothing to do with him.

Fortunately, the northern government's military performed poorly and could not achieve the strategy of quickly defeating the southern government. Otherwise, the power of various countries in the Americas would not necessarily be able to force them to compromise.

Franz thought for a while and said, "The Italian issue can be postponed, and neither Sicily Kingdom asked for help. Even if the French wanted to intervene, they would not dare to take action at this time.

Napoleon III was not stupid. The joint defense treaty against them was still there. Now that the power continues to expand, the anti-French alliance is not far away.

Now there is no problem with the interference of the coalition forces. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs coordinates relations as soon as possible and cannot wait for the Americans to decide the outcome, so as not to have too many dreams.

At this time, the north and the south have almost weakened, and splitting the United States is the first priority. Now the British and ours have the same position, and the London government must not dare to wait."

The situation in Europe is changing too quickly, and it is very likely that the interference of the coalition forces will cause changes. In this context, it is extremely unwise to think about weakening the United States as much as possible.

It would be fine if the southern government won the civil war, but the plantation economy has limited potential. Unless it can monopolize the world's food supply, it will never become a world power.

Obviously this is impossible. There are too many areas in the world that are suitable for growing food. American agriculture does have advantages, but this advantage is not enough to form a monopoly.

No country is fool and will not give its lifeline to Americans. At least, agricultural products exporters like Russia and Austria will not buy their food.

Once the Northern government wins, the United States in history will reappear. Franz's layout in the Americas will delay the rise of the United States at most.

Even if there is no war on the European continent, Americans will take the initiative to challenge the world order after entering the 20th century.

With the relationship between European countries, Franz does not think that everyone can work together sincerely. At least on the issue of mainland North America, everyone is happy to read the jokes of the British.

Perhaps the second unlucky guy is Austria. The current Central America is inconspicuous and Alaska is not valuable. It will be different after decades.

The combined benefits of the two are only the British. However, Franz is not sure whether the British and Austrians can suppress the Americans in North America.

After all, if the American social system is not fully confident, it will be difficult for them to take strategic risks.

You can see from history that after the end of World War I, they had the strength to dominate the world and endured it until after World War II.

The domestic conflicts were directly ignored by Franz. The net was already set up, just waiting for the fish to take the bait. If there was still a problem, it would mean that the emperor failed.

After this wave, the final obstacle to national integration will no longer exist. No matter how powerful nationalism is, it will take time to spread it.

Even if there are survivors who dare to do something secretly after experiencing this wave, they are the real warriors.

...

In St. Petersburg, Alexander II has become more and more angry recently, and the altars and jars and jars in the palace have suffered.

He was extremely disappointed by the poor performance of the Russian army on the battlefield. Fortunately, due to funding, the Prussian Kingdom had not been smooth in its early military reforms, and it was only before the war broke out.

Overall, the two sides fought for a slight pound. This result was enough for the Berlin government, who were originally planning to drag the Russians to death.

With Britain and France as their backing, there is no need to take a decisive battle with the Russians. If they really go up and defeat the Russian army in a reckless manner, the tsarist government, which is so angry, will fight to the end with them.

For the Russian Empire, it was just that loss of hundreds of thousands of troops. The Prussian Kingdom was different, and they really couldn't afford to lose.

The Russian army is not a soft persimmon. As long as the commander does not make fatal strategic mistakes, the exchange ratio on the battlefield will not be too huge.

The Near East War is an example. Field battles between the British and French forces and the Russians are usually only 1.5:1, but the situations of 3:1 and 4:1 are also frequently seen during defense.

If you really go up, you will find it easy to defeat the enemy, but it is difficult to wipe out the enemy completely. In the era without aircraft, tanks and machine guns, it is almost inevitable that infantry on the plains will suffer losses when they encounter cavalry after leaving the fortress.

The current situation is 546,000 Russian troops vs 328,000 Prussian troops and 231,000 Polish rebels. Both sides fought one and half a dozen, and even the Russians suffered a small loss.

"Who can tell me what kind of battle is this?"

Looking at the furious Tsar, everyone lowered their heads tacitly.

I thought I could win this war easily, but for more than a month, not only did I not burn the war to the Kingdom of Prussia, but I was forced to withdraw from Poland.

Army Secretary Nicholas Cage explained with a tough bullet: "Your Majesty, the Polish area is full of thieves. When we are fighting against the enemy, we have to divide a large number of troops to transport strategic supplies.

General Fitzroy chose to shrink the front because the Warsaw area was not suitable as a battlefield. In order to avoid providing opportunities to the enemy, he decided to put the battlefield in East Prussia."

Now the Warsaw area is full of guerrillas. When fighting here, the Russians cannot enjoy the advantage of local operations, but instead fall into the vast ocean of people's war.

From a military perspective, it is no problem to temporarily abandon the Warsaw region and directly focus on East Prussia.

Compared with the Polish rebels, the Prussian Kingdom is the biggest concern. As long as the Prussians are defeated, the Polish rebels will not exist for long.

Moreover, the Polish independence movement was initiated by multiple revolutionary organizations. They can cooperate sincerely in the face of crisis. Once the Russian threat weakens, they will fall into internal strife.

After the uprising broke out, in order to attract more people to join, the Polish Provisional Government promised to distribute land for free and implement labor protection laws and other conditions.

These clauses seriously damaged the interests of capitalists and nobles, and did not gain their recognition, and the rebels were divided from the beginning.

It would be fine to make a verbal promise, but if these conditions were to be fulfilled, the rebel army would inevitably have internal struggles. No matter which faction wins, the power of the rebel army will be greatly weakened.

If the proletarian faction fails, these conditions cannot be fulfilled, and the morale of the rebel army will be immediately disintegrated; if the nobles and capitalists fail, the Tsarist government will have a party to lead the way.

This kind of military correct choice is a political failure. The domestic conservative aristocrats kept jumping up and down, causing trouble for Alexander II and attributed the defeat on the battlefield to reform.

Alexander II was not a fool who blindly pursued political victory. He knew very well that temporary gains and losses were nothing, and the final result of the war was the key.

"Hmph! Tell General Fitzroy that no matter what price he pays, I must burn the war into the Kingdom of Prussia as soon as possible.

If the large army cannot break through the enemy's defense line, send a small group of troops to make trouble and weaken the enemy's war potential as much as possible.

The Prussians received support from Britain and France, and if they wanted to delay the war, we could not give them this opportunity."

The war between the poor can only be decided quickly. As long as the war is delayed, it will be a failure for the Tsarist government.

Because of this war, Alexander II had to pause the next reform plan and do his best to raise funds for this war.

The Russian army's early losses were largely caused by lack of money. Fighting against the enemy in Warsaw, the loss of materials during transportation was too great, exceeding the ability of the Tsarist government.

Fitzroy gave up the Warsaw area under pressure because of the logistics supply problem. The government lacked money and prepared limited strategic materials. Once it was lost during transportation, it would be difficult for the next batch to be in place in time.

At the hint of various government departments, Fitzroy had to make this decision. Alexander II knew all these things clearly, but he knew that they could not stop them.

The Tsarist government has raised less than half of the funds raised before the Near East War, and it is very difficult to keep the war going.
