"The actions of the Russian Empire in the Balkans make us, the Austrian Empire, feel threatened.

Therefore, Austria's only temporary goodwill towards the Tsarist Russian Empire after the Crimean War disappeared because the Tsarist Russian Empire once again pushed the wheel of history to repeat the same mistakes to the south of the Black Sea.

Now, the Austrian government has chosen to stand on the right side of Britain, and has taken a defensive posture against the Russian Empire. "

This is the Austrian Emperor Franz Joseph I explaining the alliance with the United Kingdom in parliament.

Austria is a vast country, a member of the Holy Alliance, and for many years one of the most powerful countries in Europe.

Britain is now the most powerful country in Europe. Such a combination is a huge threat to any European country.

When the Tsarist Russian Empire was surprised by Austria's clear and unifying policy toward Russia, the Tsarist Russian Empire began to increase its troops and move southward.

The front-line troops in front chose not to advance after they occupied Varna.

On August 25, 1865, more than 100,000 Russian troops arrived in Romania

Of these, 50,000 were deployed near the borders of Romania and Bessarabia near Austria, and another 50,000 were deployed near the Bulgarian border.

At the same time, in the Caucasus, the Tsarist Empire also added more than 50,000 troops to prevent the Ottoman Empire from counterattacking in the eastern Black Sea.

Especially for the Georgian region where the Ottoman Empire and the Tsarist Russia Empire were separated.

Austria is naturally not to be outdone, they have also deployed more than 100,000 people in the eastern Transylvania region.

In the north, it was exchanged with the army of Schleswig, and 50,000 experienced veterans who had just experienced the Schleswig war were transferred back to Austria.

Austria deployed them to the Kerpathian Mountains on the border with the Russian Empire in the north, which is close to Ukraine, so that they can echo each other and threaten Romania in the east and the Ukrainian Principality of the Russian Empire in the north.

When the Russian Empire saw the posture of Austria, it still didn't understand that the Austrian Empire and the United Kingdom were determined to fight against the Russian Empire.

This made Alexander II hesitate. Because despite 10 years of development, the Tsarist Russian Empire has recovered its vitality, and its national strength has even improved greatly, which is very different from 10 years ago.

Therefore, Tsarist Russia is very confident in dealing with the gradually declining power of the Ottoman Empire.

But if you join Austria, it will be a bit difficult for the Tsarist Empire.

Although the population of Austria's 30 million to 40 million people is nearly double that of Tsarist Russia, don't forget that the population of the two remaining countries of the Ottiman Empire is added up. In fact, compared with the Tsarist Russia Empire, it is not much.

Moreover, the troops of the two countries are almost the same in quality, and it needs to be compared to know whether it is real money or not.

What worries the Russian Empire the most is the threat of the United Kingdom beside it.

This is a **** country.

Tsarist Russia did not mention the promotion to guard against each other.

However, after a team of the federal government suddenly appeared on August 27, 1865, the Prussian diplomatic team followed to visit St. Petersburg, and then Alexander II dispelled his concerns.

On September 5, 1865, the United States of America in North America launched an attack on the Confederate States and the British Landing Army in the south. Grant took advantage of the Confederate States and the United Kingdom's belief that the North did not dare to face them, and used a sneak attack first. The strategy of a large army that has already been deployed.

launched a violent attack.

This time, the North seemed to have been helped by a god. The Confederate States of the South were suddenly unfamiliar with the way the Northern Army dispatched troops to form a formation. When they were caught off guard, they were beaten and their formation was messy.

The United Kingdom originally wanted to preserve its strength and watch the battle, but the North would not give them a chance.

East of Richmond, British troops faced the same attack.

However, unlike the previous few times, this time, the old-fashioned American attack in their opinion has become more like a European method of warfare. This confused the 30,000-strong British army and was also beaten 70 times. Eight falls.

Eventually, the South captured Richmond from the North.

The Battle of Richmond. More than 150,000 people were dispatched from the north. Casualties exceeded 50,000. Always and captured 3000 people.

The Confederate countries in the south participated in the war with 80,000 people, with more than 50,000 casualties, but always 7,000 people.

Of the 30,000 British troops, more than 16,000 were lost, and more than 2,000 were missing and captured.

As soon as this victory appeared, the North was excited, and the South was mourning.

In particular, the idea that the British had sent troops to attack the North had high hopes, but now it was a complete disappointment.

There were times when Britain was defeated, and it was a very tragic kind.

When the news crossed the Atlantic and reached Europe on September 6, all countries simultaneously cast a surprised look at Britain on the west side of the English Channel.

When the British in Europe faced the eyes of their partners, they felt very dazzling.

Although gossip is not popular in the newspapers of this era, it depends on who it is aimed at.

Now facing the UK, which is hostile to the Russian Empire, their country's newspapers will naturally not show mercy, and the Russian government is turning a blind eye to this, acquiescing to the reports of the country's newspapers.

"What's up with the UK lately"

This is the title of "Voice of Tsarist Russia".

"In recent years, Britain's national strength has been losing ground, but the country has been boasting about its improved international status. Although our countries have doubts about this, we allow them to boast.

However, with the situation on the US side this time~lightnovelpub.net~ Britain's participation in the war is not a problem. Many British people even think that once the British army arrives and succeeds, the Northern Commonwealth will bow down to the British army, but they are wrong. , we were also surprised.

The Commonwealth of the North actually resisted the pressure of the United Kingdom. On the contrary, it was only one war, which caused the British army's 30,000 troops to lose 60% of their combat power. To the dissatisfaction of the South, this is the biggest loss since the South started the war with the North.

The southerners joked to themselves that the death rate in Britain increased the casualty ratio of the South in this battle, and dragged down the loss of personnel in the South.

Although this is dissatisfying, it does mean that the addition of the British army not only does not help, on the contrary, the number of deaths in the south has always been lower than that in the north, but now it is broken.

Britain should be ashamed and should apologize to the southern military.

This makes people think that in South Africa, the United Kingdom also faced the indigenous Zulu Kingdom and the Transvaal Republic and other wars, and even more than 10 troops died, which shocked Europe.

Could it be that the British who lost 18,000 this time have to stage the story of South Africa again? "
