Chapter 1861 Americans in Action One

"To be honest, I don't like this atmosphere very much." At this time, Wilson, who is a representative of the US government, was sitting in the car and said to US Secretary of State Robert Lansing next to him.

"I feel that your political leanings are affecting your judgment." Robert looked at the crowd celebrating outside the car window and said, "Maybe, it is difficult for you to understand why Europeans are willing to support a king who is superior and enjoys various privileges. Rather than accepting the rule of parliament or political parties." Robert said.

"Not only because of this, I am also very dissatisfied with the attitude of the Austro-Hungarian Empire towards domestic minorities." Wilson said.

"Hehe, but think back to what we did to the Indians back then. Are you going to send those people to the gallows?" Robert sneered, and everyone has a lot of black history. "As a diplomat, we value the interests of the country more. As long as it is beneficial to the country, we can cooperate with anyone or deal with anyone. Just like what we are doing now."

"So what do you think of the Austro-Hungarian Empire now?" Wilson asked.

"Vienna has only now become the master of the empire again. The dual empire is actually an abnormal state. Now, the empire has removed the biggest internal problem and has begun to re-centralize power, which will greatly improve its efficiency. A big improvement. Moreover, with His Royal Highness Ruprecht serving as the regent of Austria, the future of this empire is very bright." Robert said.

"Will he be the next Germany?" Wilson asked.

"If Bavaria is incorporated into Austria, it will be much stronger than the Northern Empire," Robert said.

"By the way, let's talk about Germany. What do you think of the situation in Germany now? Prussia is already in disarray after being hit hard this time. The center of power within the empire is no longer majestic, and Bavaria tends to become bigger. When the Austro-Hungarian Empire re-establishes When it started to centralize power, Germany in the north developed like a dual system. This is really a wonderful thing," Wilson said.

"Isn't this exactly what we need? The German Empire will become a competitor of the United States, but the Austro-Hungarian Empire is worse, so we are not worried about the Austro-Hungarian Empire, but that Germany is too strong, and its central weakness is what we want to see Yes, this will make his operational efficiency drop a lot.”

"However, the size of the German Empire has more than doubled after all. Even Bavaria has a power comparable to France after the war. Although the Prussian center has been weakened, it is still stronger than Bavaria. Even though their efficiency has declined, but The overall strength has still been significantly enhanced. If Germany has an outstanding politician who can control the overall situation, then the future of this empire is also limitless!" Robert said.

"So do we have a solution to the rise of Germany?" Wilson asked.

"Of course there are. Does your Excellency think that I, the Secretary of State of the United States, came to Vienna just to participate in a rehearsed canonization ceremony?" Robert said meaningfully. "No, you are wrong. My most important thing is to let the seeds of parliamentary system be sown on the land of the German Empire, and then take root and sprout! We want to drive a wedge in this group of states, and let his development follow our future Planned direction. Tonight, I will meet with Mr. Hase, the representative of the Berlin Parliament, and we will talk about many issues of mutual interest."

"If it's convenient, can you tell me the content of the meeting?" Wilson hesitated and said.

"Of course, maybe, in the future, you will be the first ambassador of the United States of America to the Prussian Federation." Robert said with a smile.

"What Prussian Federation?" Wilson frowned and said, "Your estimate of the current situation of the German parliament is too optimistic. In fact, whether it is the German army, various states or Bavaria, they are all inclined to the Kaiser." , Their identities and classes determine that they are closer to the Kaiser, and the parliamentarians cannot completely defeat the royalists."

"Who said we want the parliament faction to completely defeat the Kaiser? This is impossible, so we pursue another way to achieve our goal. In fact, the current development direction of things is very close to our expectations. Bavaria has become extremely powerful, so the central government's restrictions on Bavaria have been weakened, and now, the wife of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is about to become the emperor of Austria, so the relationship between the central government and Bavaria has been weakened. And the civil strife in Prussia has made this former empire There is a problem with the core, and the power of the German Empire is dispersed, which is what we want to see. What we have to do now is to further disperse the core of power!"

"So, our plan is very simple! That is to split Prussia! Turn Prussia into two states, one of which is ruled by the Kaiser and the other is ruled by a political party! We can help the latter," said Robert. .

"How could this plan be successful? Whether it is the Kaiser, the army or any other forces will oppose it!" Wilson said in shock.

"Politics is sometimes so magical that it can make the impossible come true. Besides, even if we fail, we don't have to take any risks. If we want to succeed, we can make a lot of money." Robert said with a smile.

At this time, as a representative of the parliament, Hassey, who came to participate in the canonization ceremony of the crown prince of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, was also preparing in his residence. The sudden meeting request from the Americans made the centrist leader of the Social Democratic Party, who had been struggling recently, feel quite uncomfortable. Surprisingly, now, anyone can see that the parliamentary faction is in decline, and at this time, what is the purpose of the Americans coming here? Hassey couldn't figure it out.

As for saying that everyone's values ​​are similar, the so-called parliamentary system has been fully promoted in Germany, and American friends from across the ocean decided to provide help? These words are used to fool others, but Ha Sai absolutely does not believe it! If the parliament faction succeeds, then there is still this possibility, but if it fails, then hehe!

"Anyway, once we meet, we won't lose anything." At this time, Hassai can also be a bachelor.

"Sir, the Secretary of State of the United States is here." Just as Hasey was thinking wildly, the American car had already driven into the yard. Compared with the huge American delegation, this time the Americans looked very low-key, looking out the window , apart from a driver and Robert himself, there was no third person.

"It's kind of interesting, it seems to be here to talk about things." Hasai nodded. If the other party is a big show this time, it's just a show!
