I have to admit that the deterrent power of the woolly bear is strong, and the slightest action has caused panic in the European world, and many people are worried that the international situation will be broken again.

Whether it is receiving warships or expanding in Central Asia, it is announcing to the outside world: the awesome Russian Empire is back.

The Russians want to make small moves in Central Asia, and the brunt is Britain. The boss is not easy to be, and he must come out when it is time to come out.

Compared with before, Prime Minister Gladstone is now much more confident. There is no other reason than to have money in your pocket.

The British government also reaped a lot of the anti-Semitic campaign, with a third of its old debts cleared and the government's finances became more abundant.

Naturally, money must be spent, and only the money spent can be turned into political achievements.

Unless something happens, every qualified British prime minister will leave a debt to the next one.

Gladstone was no exception, and it was not immediately after making a fortune that the "food self-sufficiency plan" was approved.

In order to enhance the competitiveness of his agricultural products, Prime Minister Gladstone also submitted a "draft grain subsidy bill" to Parliament.

That is, the government subsidized farmers through cash, seeds, fertilizers, etc., and encouraged people to invest in farms in the colonies.

Once the draft is passed, the British government will be able to bypass the free trade system and support its own agriculture to achieve food self-sufficiency, and get rid of dependence on grain-producing countries such as Russia and Austria.

There is a reason why Gladstone dared to come up with such a plan.

"Food self-sufficiency" is just a pretense on the surface, and the real reason is because of the impact of the "Aegis-gold system" on the "pound-gold system".

Britain is a small country and relies on imports for most of its natural resources, except for coal and iron ore.

As a result, Britain has been in a trade deficit for most of the time. For the world hegemon, these are all minor problems that are not worth mentioning, and they can be solved by printing money.

It is a pity that Britain's world hegemony is not stable, and has been challenged by Russia, France and Austria, especially now Austria, and the Aegis-gold system has threatened their monetary hegemony.

In the past, people didn't have a choice. With its own gold reserves insufficient, it has to hold a large amount of pounds, and the British government can not hurt even if it prints a little more bills.

Not now, under the impact of Aegis, in order to stabilize the value of the pound, the London government has not dared to increase the leverage of banknote issuance.

The ability to print money was restricted, and the trade deficit was particularly glaring, and if the nail was not removed, Britain's money would go out.

Of course, this little problem can hold on for a while for Britain, which has a big business, after all, they are still in a state of excess capital at the moment.

But how could the far-sighted Prime Minister Gladstone allow this kind of thing to go on for a long time?

There are only two ways to smooth the trade deficit: either reduce commodity imports; Either increase the export of goods.

It is clear that the earth has been carved up, and the so-called "international market" is only a corner of the land, and most of the region has been reduced to colonies of various countries.

If you want to increase your commodity exports, you can only fight with many competitors in this corner.

Unfortunately, as European countries have completed industrialization one after another, the market competition has become increasingly fierce.

Not to mention continuing to expand commodity exports, even the market share that Britain now occupies is constantly being squeezed out by competitors.

Of course, the economy is moving forward, and although the market share has declined, the total export value of Britain is still increasing.

The rate at which imports can increase is much faster than the rate at which exports grow, and the trade deficit is still widening.

In order to stop the continuous outflow of wealth, it was only at the suggestion of economists and the influence of domestic public opinion that Prime Minister Gladstone accepted the "food self-sufficiency plan".

"What's going on with the news of Russia's expansion into Central Asia?"

Without boasting or boasting, Gladstone really doesn't know why the Russians are now expanding into Central Asia.

In his opinion, the tsarist government did this, either because of the water in the brain, or because it was a knife that bullied Britain, and it was very unlikely that Austria was playing tricks.

But none of these reasons can be justified. The war is money, and the British army may not be able to defeat the Russians in Central Asia, but the British government can drag the tsarist government to bankruptcy.

Even if Austria was willing to support the Russians, the Vienna government would not have been able to throw money at it with all its might. 120 million may be able to afford a loss, but if it is 1.8 billion, the Vienna government will be 100 percent cowardly.

In the final analysis, it is still a benefit, and the pay should be proportional to the gain. There is no return for blind giving, and normal people can't hold it.

Foreign Secretary George: "It is not yet possible to determine the true purpose of the tsarist government, but based on the analysis of the information gathered, the Foreign Office believes that this is most likely a test by the Russians.

Perhaps it had something to do with the recent anti-Semitic campaign, the tsarist government should have been in a bulging pocket and began to be restless again. ”

Colonial Secretary Primroth denied: "I don't think this is just a temptation, I'm afraid the Russian ambitions can't be resisted."

You know, it's not the first time the same thing has happened. After the end of the Third Near Eastern War, the Russians also reached out to Central Asia.

Although our intervention caused the tsarist government to stop its small movements, their sphere of influence in Central Asia expanded.

According to the information reported by the Indian governor-general, the Russians have encroached on at least 50,000 square kilometers in Central Asia in recent years.

If we do not pay attention to it and find a way to cut off the Russians' ambitions to expand into Central Asia, I am afraid that the Russians will annex Central Asia again.

Now the Nordic Confederation, North Germany, and Austria have formed an impregnable wall, blocking the westward advance of the Russians.

To the east, there is a world of ice and snow, Siberia, and the Far East, and the harsh climatic conditions limit the eastward advance of the Russians.

If the tsarist government wanted to continue to expand, they were left with a strategic choice but to go south to the Indian Ocean.

Both Persia and Central Asia could be the target of the Russians' next expansion.

Compared to Central Asia, Persia still has Austrian influence, and if the Russians do not want Austria to be involved, the best option is Central Asia. ”

I have to admit that the colonial minister's analysis is very reasonable.

After the failure of the westward march to dominate the European continent, the most suitable direction for the Russians to expand now was Central Asia, followed by Persia, and then the Far East.

There is no need to doubt this, open the map and know that it is arranged by God, and if you disobey God's arrangement, you will be punished by harsh natural conditions.

Something didn't feel right, and Gladstone couldn't tell what was wrong, but that didn't stop him from making a decision.

"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs sent an official note to the tsarist government, ordering the Russians to withdraw from Central Asia and warning the tsarist government not to play with fire.

The 11th Division stationed in India was ordered to immediately rush to the Central Asian region and hold military exercises with Central Asian countries. ”

……

The British government moved, and the French government was not idle. Of course, the French do not care about Central Asian issues, and the tentacles of France do not yet reach the Central Asian region.

After launching the anti-Semitic campaign, the French government's finances turned over. With the money, Napoleon IV made a big move.

The Napoleon III era has been restarted again, this time not only in Paris, but also in many of the country's major cities.

Stuck with funds and slow-moving progress on the Big Farm Program, immediate appropriations were made to speed up the process.

The ongoing reconstruction effort in Egypt is also being carried out in full swing, not only to empty the rivers but also to restore farmland that has been battered by the floods.

Even the towns, plantations, roads and bridges destroyed by the rebels were also in the post-war reconstruction plan, and for a time there was a boom in civil engineering in Egypt.

As a result, the refugees born in the war also got jobs and livelihoods, and the situation in Egypt stabilized suddenly.

There are pros and cons, and as the first to kick off anti-Semitism, Napoleon IV has not dared to go out recently.

In the past month, he has been assassinated four times. If it weren't for the scruples of influence, he would have gone on a killing spree a long time ago.

You must know that although the anti-Semitic movement in France is huge, not many Jews have actually been killed, and most of the victims are low-level civilians.

Napoleon IV only asked for the money of the Jewish capitalists, which was not as dark as the next-door neighbor, and took it away with his life.

Regrettably, his perceived tolerance did not win the consolation of the Jewish capitalists, and he was greeted with round after round of assassinations.

In the makeshift palace, Napoleon IV roared: "Adonis, are you all-eaters!"

It's been so long, and you haven't found out who is behind it, are you going to let me not go out in the future? ”

The Minister of Police, Adonis, looked bitter and did not know how to answer. I don't know when the post of Minister of Police has become a hot potato.

In the last decade, the French government has changed 17 police ministers, with an average term of seven months.

That number is still dwindling, and Adonis has no confidence that he will be able to serve a full term in this position.

"Your Majesty, we have interrogated the Assassins severely, and according to the information they have given them, they have been killed by the time they are found.

The suspect, who was targeted by the police, had left the country long before the assassination broke out. The murderer is very cunning, so ......"

Napoleon IV interrupted: "So you will find nothing, and then tell your emperor that there is danger outside, don't go out yet?" ”

Adonis simply shut up, the form of Paris was very complex, full of various forces, most of which were enemies of the Bonaparte dynasty.

Perhaps these forces would not normally send someone to assassinate the emperor, but they would still do it if they pulled Napoleon IV back.

The police have been unable to find out the results for a long time, and naturally these forces are indispensable to make trouble.

If it had not been for the restraint of these forces, the repeated assassination attempts by the Jewish capitalists would have been exposed long ago.

After a fierce ideological struggle, the Minister of Police, Adonis, said slowly: "Your Majesty, although there is no definite evidence, but from the analysis of the motive and strength of the crime, most of the people behind the crime are Jews. It is better to arrest the Jewish ...... in the country first."

This is the easiest way, if you can't find evidence, you won't look for evidence, and whoever has the motive and strength to commit the crime will be arrested first.

If someone catches it, check it slowly, and sooner or later there will be results. Even if you can't tell who is the real murderer, it doesn't matter, just kill all the suspects.

It doesn't matter if you kill the wrong one, you will die as an enemy anyway. It is necessary to prevent the slightest mistake and eliminate hidden dangers in advance.

Napoleon IV shook his head: "No! The government has reached an agreement with the Jewish capitalists, a promise to guarantee their personal safety, and we cannot go back. ”

The cunning rabbit has three holes, not to mention the Jews who are often "killed pigs"?

Most Jewish capitalists don't put their eggs in one basket, and in addition to their assets on the surface, there are also many industries behind the scenes.

Napoleon IV did not send anyone to keep an eye on the big Jewish capitalists, and he did not waver for decades, so he could only copy the property on the surface.

If you encounter ruthless people who want money and don't want your life, and you can't squeeze out oil and water, the government, in order to stabilize employment, will have to pay money to maintain the operation of factories and enterprises after confiscating them.

Against this backdrop, most of the unfortunate members of the anti-Semitic movement are ordinary Jews.

Powerful Jewish capitalists already have the capital to negotiate terms with the government, for example: pay a sum of money to buy their lives in exchange for the government to protect their personal safety.
