The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 1671: Strategy One

Chapter 1671 Strategy 1

"Then our assets in Murmansk?" Esquith asked.

"According to our agreement with the Russians, we deployed a certain amount of troops there. They will protect the precious materials of the British Empire and transfer them to the right people." Lloyd George said.

"Very well, if the chaos can end before next spring comes, then we can still contain a large number of German troops on the Eastern Front." Asquith nodded.

In fact, the British had been preparing "futures" for the Normanov dynasty very early. In the eyes of the British, the Russian government can be finished, but the war must continue! The British have established contacts with some people in Russia. After the latter promised to establish a bourgeois republic, as long as the British continue to provide help and recognition, they can continue to stand on the side of the Allied Powers. This situation is completely similar to that in history. After the February Revolution in history, the bourgeois government established was also willing to continue fighting.

As for food and industry issues? Haha, what do you say? Historically, the time of the Russian Civil Revolutionary War was not short. It's just the dead, and for the British, does it matter how many Russians die?

Of course, if we only rely on blockade and support for new spokespersons, we can only guarantee the continuation of the war. And if you want to win, then you need to do some work elsewhere. Don’t think about it here in Germany. The British can’t get in. Whether it’s the German government or the bourgeoisie who wants to do things, they cannot accept the British. The olive branch that ran over, so now, the only thing that can move your mind is the Austro-Hungarian Empire!

Of course, the so-called fascination is definitely not for Austria, but for Hungary! When Hungary was caught in internal and external difficulties, the British saw an opportunity, an opportunity that could force the Austro-Hungarian Empire to withdraw from the war, and even blow up this important ally! And if the Austro-Hungarian Empire is kneeling, I am afraid that the Germans should really think about the way forward, right?

"We have established contact with the Hungarian government. We have provided them with some materials and equipment. After suppressing the domestic rebellion, they will declare independence. At least in the name of the Hungarian Parliament, they will refuse to participate in this war again. Try to influence the Austrian government." Lloyd George said.

Someone may ask, how can things made in the UK be transported to Hungary? It has to be said that the British have a broad mindset and a wild way! In order to ensure the success of their plan, the British contacted the Italians this time...

Although in this plane, Italy is really neutral, one thing is unchangeable, that is, the contradiction between Italy and the Austro-Hungarian Empire is difficult to reconcile, perhaps not as good as France and Germany, but with deep hatred. It is not too much to describe! Even if it is neutral, if there is a chance to severely inflict this enemy, the Italians still have to stabbed twice!

So, on this issue, the Italians and the British hit it off! What is better for Italy than splitting the Austro-Hungarian Empire? If the Austro-Hungarian Empire falls into a civil war, you might still be able to get some benefits from the territory of the collapse of Austro-Hungary!

Therefore, the Italians and the British are very cooperative on this issue. The British provide funds and the Italians provide materials (the British pay the bill). Then, Italy will use the status of a neutral country to transport the materials to areas controlled by Hungary to support the Hungarian government's domestic The suppression of the rebellion!

If only this is done, then the British diplomacy and strategy are already very good, and can be scored 75 points, but how can Dangdang British Empire only have this level? The British choose to do better!

In order to alleviate the pressure on the Hungarian government, the British government even found the leader of the Romanians through various channels to guarantee the territorial integrity of Romania after the war in exchange for a compromise between the Romanians and the Hungarians! In this way, once there is no war pressure with the Romanians, the situation in Hungary will be much better! With this addition, the British can score 90 points in their strategic layout this time! 10 points less, I'm afraid you are proud...

As for the next step if the Hungarian government can subdue the national independence movement in the country? The British have also thought for them! What is certain is that if Hungary can survive this catastrophe, then the relationship between Vienna and Budapest will never return to its original level! Realizing that the so-called dual empire cannot make itself safer and gain more, then Hungary really has the possibility of independence! After all, if it is independent, Hungary is also a big European country with 300,000 square kilometers!

As for the result of independence after independence? Then it has little to do with the British. If Hungary remains in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, then the two sides will definitely wrestle over the status issue, and as hedgehogs holding groups for warmth, the two armies must be on guard against each other. In this case, the Austrian army The possibility of entering the Western Front will be greatly reduced. However, this is the most unlikely result!

So what is the most likely outcome? Naturally, Hungary is independent, and then Austria will fight Hungary in order to maintain the unity of the empire! Yes, the war between the two sides will be inevitable! It is certainly impossible for Austria to let the Hungarian provinces neatly separate from the Empire, and even the Germans may intervene in this war. The Bavarian Legion may bear the brunt of the battle~lightnovelpub.net~ As for the result? The British guessed that the biggest possibility was that Hungary was beaten up and out, and Austria was also exhausted. In order to ensure its own domestic stability, maybe the Germans would have to provide some military support. The Bavarian Army and the Bohemian Army might postpone their journey to the Western Front. If at this time, the Russian government on the Eastern Front could behave better, the Allies’ invasion and occupation of the Eastern Front might be reduced a lot, making the situation less bad. On this basis, the Allied Powers may not be unable to achieve a decent result-maintaining the national boundaries before the war. That's right, so far, the British have no confidence to completely kill Germany!

"How is our current plan going?" the Prime Minister asked.

"The large amount of firearms and ammunition we provided for the Hungarian Army has arrived, and our military and liaison personnel have begun to work, but the feedback is not good." Lloyd George said carefully.

"You mean, the Hungarians are playing tricks with us?" Prime Minister Asquith frowned.
