Start 1861: I Just Inherited the Dutch Throne

On March 20, 1865, a news published in Europe's largest newspaper, the European Times, suddenly filled Europe with an eerie silence.

The protagonist that appears in front of Europeans this time is no longer the division caused by the North American United States, the US-American war led by President Lincoln of the Northern Commonwealth and President Davis of the Confederate States.

It's not that the German Confederation just won against Denmark, because of the uneven distribution of the spoils, and the Kingdom of Prussia and the Empire of Austria that almost fought each other

It turned out that on this day the Czarist Empire of Crimea and the Ottoman Empire in the east had disputes again, and the two countries began to have intermittent small disputes along the Black Sea coast.

According to the statistics of "European Times", in the five years from 1860 to 1865, there were more than 100 disputes between the two countries because of Crimea, almost one in a month, and the total number of casualties in both countries was both. More than 10,000 people.

The appearance of this news made the hearts of those who experienced the Crimean War of 1853-1856 tremble.

Although it has only been 10 years, it is still difficult for people to forget that in that war, the casualties were so heavy, how many families were separated from wives, how many families lost their mainstay men, and how many families became single-parent families.

For this reason, there were demonstrations against the Crimean War on the streets of the countries that participated in the war in Europe.

Especially those affected single-parent families are calling on the government to stop it from happening again.

There was a moment of silence on the streets of London for the more than 200,000 British soldiers who died there.

Paris took the lead in asking Napoleon III to reconcile the contradictions between the Tsarist Russia and the Ottoman Empire for the 300,000 soldiers lost by the French Empire in this war. There were even extreme people who asked Napoleon III to apologize for the deaths of the 300,000 people. .

This meal caused the events of Napoleon III in Paris and all over the country.

This caught the attention of Europe.

The recent war between Alexander II, Denmark and the German Confederation in Schleswig made him discover that Britain seems to be unable to check and balance countries on the European continent.

Otherwise, it would not have happened that Prussia and Austria would dare to occupy Schleswig when the British warships were in the Baltic Sea.

He sneered: "It's all to blame for the guy William IV. If it weren't for his African issue, he repeatedly induced countries to bypass Britain's influence in Africa to obtain a large number of colonies, and the countries that tasted the sweetness would have been unable to restrain themselves, and even The intervention of the United Kingdom has been thought by various countries that the United Kingdom wants to swallow it alone, and the little guy William IV is hiding deep enough."

Naturally, Alexander II had a complicated mentality about the Crimean War that ended in 1856, because it was because of this war that Nicholas I died and the Russian Empire even plummeted.

And because of this, he inherited the throne of the Russian Empire.

In the face of a ruined Tsarist Russian Empire, he worked hard to manage it. In this short ten years, he finally brought the Tsarist Russian Empire out of the quagmire of the war. Even in terms of education, he also kept up with the advanced countries such as Britain and France. The pace of development has led to the emergence of a large number of advanced scholars in education in China.

There are many people in Europe who are now worried about war, but they are ordinary people and those with vested interests.

But for the ambitious, this is an opportunity.

Alexander II was such a man.

Ten years of hard work and hard work is a shame.

Britain's declining status, France's high ambitions, Prussia's rapid rise in the German Confederation, with the vague support of the Tsarist Empire, formed a confrontation with Austria, and Alexander II will never forget his father Nicholas I before his death. Joseph I of Austria, the most trusted ally of Tsarist Russia, turned out to be on the border of Austria and Tsarist Russia, which made Tsarist Russia send heavy troops at the junction of the two countries, which reduced the number of troops in the Crimean War in the south of Nicholas I, and finally failed. dead look.

Now that Austria is suppressed by Prussia, the more comfortable Alexander II's heart is.

Alexander II also followed the example of Western Europe, and it was a common thing to organize his own Privy Council meeting, and to convene several giants to hold meetings at the same time.

No, in front of him, he summoned several people, namely Count Gorchakov, Grand Duke Konstantin Nikolaevich, and Count Milyutin.

Because of the trust of Alexander II, Gorchagov was promoted to the new prime minister of the Russian Empire at the beginning of this year, and he also continued to serve as the foreign minister of the Russian Empire.

Archduke Konstantin Nikolaevich was the second son of Nicholas I and the younger brother of Alexander II.

From 1864 he served as Minister of the Navy and Governor of the Kingdom of Poland, and from the beginning of 1865, he served as the Speaker of the State Council of the Russian Empire (actually the Privy Council).

As for Milyudin, he was a famous general of the Tsarist Russian Empire, and he is now the Minister of War of the Tsarist Russian Empire.

It can be said that these three people are the most important right-hand man of Alexander II, and Gorchagov is in charge of the cabinet government.

The latter two were in charge of the army and the army for Alexander II.

Military Minister Milyugin's eyes shone with sharp light, and said solemnly: "Your Majesty, with the Ottoman Empire, relying on the "Paris Peace Treaty", more and more precautions are being taken in the management of Bessarabia on the northwest coast of the Black Sea, making the Our infiltration there is difficult, and I don't think we can let them go any longer.

They are also doing reverse osmosis and even centralized management of our Slavs, there is no difference in raising pigs, maybe this is an excuse for us to intervene in them”

Hearing the words of the Paris Peace Treaty, everyone in the room looked good.

For this peace treaty, all Tsarist Russia is a symbol of shame.

Because it makes Tsarist Russia a laughing stock in Europe.

Since this peace treaty, Tsarist Russia has recognized the territorial integrity of the Ottoman Empire, and the capital of Tsarist Russia has occupied part of the occupied territory of the Crimea Peninsula, but the Ottoman Empire has always been dissatisfied with this result.

Moreover, for the territory of the Crimean Peninsula in its hands, the Russian Empire also needed to give up the northern part of Bessarabia at the mouth of the Danube to the small country of Moldavia. UU reading www.uukanshu. com

The south was ceded to the Ottoman Empire.

Karpas in the Caucasus was also required to return to the Ottoman Empire and give up the protection of the Orthodox Church in the Ottoman Empire, which is equivalent to making Tsarist Russia lose the right to intervene in the affairs of the Ottomans.

The suzerainty of Serbia, Wallachia and Moldavia, which Tsarist Russia has always been unwilling to accept, must also be recognized by Tsarist Russia as belonging to the Ottoman Empire.

Also recognize the defense rights of the tri-nation alliance of Serbia, Wallachia and Moldavia.

Open the Danube, Russia must not interfere with the navigation of ships.

, if it is the territory they go to that makes them uncomfortable, the most disgusting thing for everyone is that the peace treaty also prohibits the Russian Empire from having fleets and naval bases in the Black Sea, and prohibits the Russian Empire from fortifying the Aran Islands in the Baltic Sea.

My God, after the failure of the Crimean War, these other European powers even reached out to the Baltic Sea. This is obviously an excuse to play.

After a long time, Alexander II gritted his teeth and said, "Send Bessarabia"
