It is no news that Schwarzenberg wants to abolish the emperor. He has been busy running for several months for this matter. He thought that as long as he reached an agreement with Russia, he would get rid of the stubborn Wendisch Gretz. , and you're good to go.
Facts have proved that he thought things too simply. Although the ruling and opposition parties have reached a certain consensus on abolishing the emperor, not all nobles can accept it. Just when he was about to implement the plan to abolish the emperor, some old-school nobles united to abolish the emperor. He joined the army, which made him a little bit unable to step down.
Not only was it a question of not being able to step down, but more importantly, the strong resistance of the opposition made some ambiguous factions on the fence hesitate when they came again, and suddenly it seemed that there were not many people who really supported the abolished emperor.
Now the fun is great, because Schwarzenberg feels a little menacing no matter whether he comes to power or advocates the abolition of the emperor. At first glance, it seems that the power is extremely powerful and invincible. But now this diorama has been punctured at once, and a large number of people who follow the trend seem to see clearly the reality of Schwarzenberg—it turns out that you are pretending to be a wolf with a big tail!
The chain reaction caused by this was extremely strong. Although it would not cause Schwarzenberg to fall, it also made him passive. People who were coerced by the crowd and didn't like him very much at first saw that they immediately found the organization, and immediately jumped back!
So is Schwarzenberg really that weak?
The answer is obviously no. It is true that he was able to come to power and use some tricks and shady means, but generally speaking, it is still the trend of the times. It should be said that his team is still capable, but not strong enough to completely suppress all opposition groups.
If he hadn't turned against Wendisch Gretz so early, then with the strength of the two of them, they could indeed control the situation together. But the bad thing about Huai was that he fell out with Wendisch Gretz before he could fully control the situation. So at this meeting, Wendisch Gretz's men directly stood on the side of the opposition and turned against the water.
And Wendisch Gretz's rebellion made the fencers hesitate, and naturally they did not dare to express their support for Schwarzenberg immediately. This made the opposition look overjoyed, and immediately went all out to bite Schwarzenberg desperately. , beat him in a hurry.
Although this messy punch could not kill Schwarzenberg, it also made him look ashamed, which disappointed the part of the fence who didn't particularly like him.
What these people want is a powerful political giant who can save the overall situation, just like Metternich back then, rather than a busy political clown. Those who couldn't bear to look down on them naturally joined the ranks of anti-Schwarzenberg.
Under the ebb and flow,
Schwarzenberg naturally became more and more embarrassed. At this moment, it happened that the ambassador was taught like his third grandson in Russia, which made the situation worse. Such a scandal made the heroes in the army feel dissatisfied, and felt that Schwarzenberg's leadership It was too embarrassing, so naturally he also attacked him.
Coincidence and the dissatisfaction of various forces contributed to this anti-Schwarzenberg climax. To be honest, this result, let alone Schwarzenberg, was not expected by Duke Alexander who was watching the excitement.
"I can't understand the political scene in Austria. What's wrong with these people? Are they all crazy?"
Faced with Duke Alexander's question, Li Xiao just smiled. He was actually very surprised, but this did not prevent him from analyzing with the thinking of a time traveler and a new way of thinking. Soon he came to the key reason for Schwarzenberg's passiveness-Wendisch Gretz.
The only difference between now and history is that these two people turned against each other in advance. In history, these two people single-mindedly killed Ferdinand I, and then supported Archduke Ferrantz Joseph together. It can be said that these two men ended the era of Ferdinand I and opened a new chapter in Austria.
But because of Li Xiao's interference, the two failed to join forces to abolish Ferdinand I. Schwarzenberg turned against his brother-in-law ahead of time, which severely weakened his power, making him unable to act like the historical Do the same as above. Naturally, a series of chain reactions were formed.
It should be said that this was an accident, but this accident is beneficial to Russia. Although Schwarzenberg is in danger now, but apart from him, no one else can control the situation.
It would be best if Austria fell into civil strife, but this was something Nicholas I was absolutely unwilling and not allowed to happen. Although Li Xiao's cunning uncle wanted to take advantage of Austria, he didn't intend to really kill Austria. He wanted to tame Austria and make Austria his little brother.
So once Schwarzenberg fell and Austria fell into civil strife, Nicholas I would not sit idly by. He would intervene forcefully to help Austria calm the situation. This is not a good thing.
Because this means that Russia will consume its own strength to help Austria regain blood, and once Russia wants to fully interfere in Austria's political situation, there will be a chain reaction in the international arena. After all, Russia's strength is also limited. If the main force is invested in Austria, the attention from other directions must naturally be weakened. Once Britain and France realize this, they may attack in other directions and eat away at the fruits of Russia's previous victory. Like Wallachia!
Li Xiao doesn't want to waste a lot of time, and his layout in Wallachia is still relatively important, so he still hopes to follow the plan, don't kill Austria for the time being, or let it procrastinate up.
So Schwarzenberg cannot fall. If he falls, he will have to reshuffle the cards and start over again. The agreement and political tacit agreement between Russia and him before will be considered a waste of work. And Li Xiao knew very well that Duke Alexander actually didn't want to see Schwarzenberg really fall. Because if Austria is really in chaos, with Nicholas I's temper, he will definitely be charged with this account!
So the key question now is how to help Schwarzenberg, or to put it bluntly, how to not only help Schwarzenberg tide over the difficulties, but also take the opportunity to make another profit and maximize the benefits.
"Duke, you should talk to Schwarzenberg, I think he needs support most at this time!"
Duke Alexander smiled, he knew that Li Xiao would think the same as him, knocking off Schwarzenberg would be the most profitable deal. The political risk is small and the return is not bad, but what...
Duke Alexander smiled, and asked softly: "What do you think we can get from Austria at this time?"
