It is no longer news that Schwarzenberg wants to depose the emperor. He has been busy working on this matter for several months. He originally thought that as long as he reached an agreement with Russia, he could get rid of the stubborn Wendy Schwartz.
, and then everything will be fine.
Facts have proved that he thought things too simply. Although there was a certain consensus between the government and the public to abolish the emperor, not all nobles could accept it. Just when he was about to implement the plan to abolish the emperor, some old-school nobles united and
He had an army, which made it difficult for him to get off the stage.
Not only was the issue of whether to step down or not come to power, but more importantly, the strong resistance from the opposition made some originally ambiguous fence-sitters hesitate when they came, and it suddenly became clear to everyone that there were not many people who really supported the deposed emperor.
Now it’s even more fun, because Schwarzenberg always seems a bit menacing whether he is on stage or advocating for the dethronement of the emperor. At first glance, it seems that he is extremely powerful and unbeatable. But now this diorama has been exposed.
It made a large number of people who followed the crowd seem to see clearly the reality of Schwarzenberg - it turns out that you are just pretending to be a wolf with a big tail!
The chain reaction caused by this was extremely strong. Although it did not bring about Schwarzenberg's downfall, it also made him passive. People who were originally coerced by the trend and who did not like him very much immediately found him when they saw this.
After joining the organization, he immediately rebelled!
So is Schwarzenberg really that weak?
The answer is obviously no. It is true that he used some skills and shady means to come to power, but generally speaking, it is the general trend. It should be said that his team is still strong, but it is not strong enough to completely suppress all opposition.
.
If he hadn't fallen out with Windisch Gratz so early, then with their combined strength, they could indeed control the situation. But the bad thing was that he fell out with Windischgratz before he could fully control the situation. So.
At this meeting, Windisch Gratz's people directly sided with the opposition and turned against them.
Windischgratz's betrayal made the fence-sitters hesitate, and naturally they did not dare to immediately express their support for Schwarzenberg. This made the opposition overjoyed when they saw it, and they immediately went all out to bite Schwarzenberg desperately.
, the beating left him in a hurry.
Although this messy bastard punch couldn't kill Schwarzenberg, it still made him look disgraced, which disappointed some of the wallflowers who were watching from behind and didn't particularly like him in the first place.
What these people want is a powerful political giant who can save the overall situation, just like Metternich, rather than a busy political clown. Naturally, they couldn't stand it and joined the anti-Schwarzenberg movement.
of ranks.
Under this situation, Schwarzenberg naturally became more and more embarrassed. At this moment, it happened that the ambassador was taught the same lesson as his third grandson in Russia, which made it even worse.
The scandal made the military veterans also dissatisfied. They felt that Schwarzenberg's leadership was too embarrassing, so they naturally 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 even by Duke Alexander who was watching the excitement.
"I can't understand the Austrian political scene. What's wrong with these people? Are they all crazy?"
Faced with Duke Alexander's question? Li Xiao just smiled? He was actually surprised, but this did not prevent him from using a time traveler's thinking and new thinking methods to analyze. Soon he came to the conclusion that Schwarzenberg
The key reason for passivity - Wendy Schgratz.
The only difference between now and history is that these two people turned against each other in advance? In history, these two people worked together to kill Ferdinand I, and then supported Archduke Franz Joseph together. It can be said that these two people ended up with both hands.
The era of Ferdinand I? Opened a new chapter in Austria.
But because of Li Xiao's interference? The two men failed to join forces to depose Ferdinand I. Schwarzenberg fell out with his brother-in-law in advance, which resulted in his power being severely weakened, leaving him unable to resemble history.
Doing the same thing as above will naturally cause a series of chain reactions.
Should it be said that this was an accident? But this accident was beneficial to Russia. Don't think Schwarzenberg is in danger now? But except for him, no one else can control the situation.
It would be best if Austria fell into civil strife, but this was something that Nicholas I was absolutely unwilling and not allowed to happen. Although Li Xiao's old and cunning uncle wanted to take advantage of Austria, he had no intention of actually killing Austria.
What he wants more is to tame Austria? Let Austria be his little brother.
So once Schwarzenberg falls and Austria falls into civil strife? Then Nicholas I will not just sit back and watch, he will intervene forcefully? It is not a good thing to help Austria calm the situation.
Because this means that Russia has to use its own strength to help Austria recover? And once Russia wants to fully interfere in Austria’s political situation? There will be a chain reaction in the international community. After all, Russia’s strength is also limited? If it invests heavily in Austria, it will naturally focus on other directions.
It must be weakened. Once Britain and France realize this, I am afraid they will attack in other directions and eat away at the fruits of Russia's previous victory. For example, Wallachia!
Li Xiao didn't want to work in vain for a long time, and his layout in Wallachia was still relatively important, so he still hoped to follow the plan and not kill Austria for the time being, but let it linger.
.
Therefore, Schwarzenberg cannot fall. If he falls, he will have to reshuffle the cards and start everything over again. The previous consensus and political understanding reached by Russia and him will be in vain. And Li Xiao knows very well that Duke Alexander actually
I also don’t want to see Schwarzenberg really fall. Because if Austria is really in chaos, Nicholas I will definitely put this account on his head with his temper!
So the key question now is how to help Schwarzenberg, or to put it more bluntly, how to not only help Schwarzenberg tide over the difficulties, but also take advantage of the opportunity to make another profit and maximize the benefits.
"Duke, you should talk to Schwarzenberg. I think he needs support the most at this time!"
Duke Alexander smiled. He knew that Li Xiao would think the same as him. It would be the most cost-effective deal to make a deal with Schwarzenberg. The political risks are small and the returns are not bad, but...
Duke Alexander smiled and asked softly: "What do you think we can get from Austria at this time?"
