Chapter 48, the combat effectiveness of the mouth cannon

The federal government's dying throes to finance the revolutionary insurrections of various countries will naturally not be clear to the governments.

If the news leaks, the Northern government may not be finished, and the countries still need a divided United States, which will not be killed with a stick, but the Lincoln administration will definitely be finished immediately.

Including the capitalists who support them, they will abandon them as soon as possible, and they will jump out and step on them.

There's no way, this power is unreasonably stirring up three points, and if it is reasonable, it will be repaid? Without a reasonable explanation to the British, French, and Austrian, it would be impossible for the federal government to pass the test.

This, of course, no longer matters to President Lincoln. According to the current situation, if you don't toss, you will step down, and if you toss it, the worst result is nothing more than stepping down early.

He did not directly plan these actions, secretly financed these revolutionary organizations, and as long as no one was caught with direct evidence, then within the reasonable limits of the political struggle, it would be a matter of being ousted from power.

It is the federal government that is really responsible, and it is nothing more than a question of how much money to lose. It's better than having a few great powers intervene with all their might.

Splitting the United States is the common will of all countries, and it depends on the actual operation of the United States. Lincoln was unwilling to pin his hopes on the discipline of various countries, and chose to give it a go.

If success is successful, civil strife breaks out in various countries, and the situation may turn around. If the anti-war faction in one country has the upper hand, the interference coalition will have one less member.

No matter how bad it is, it is okay for these anti-war factions to delay for a while.

Historically, the London government delayed the government's decision-making time and missed the opportunity to intervene because of the checks and balances of the anti-war faction.

In this era, most Europeans are very arrogant, and they don't look down on the United States as a halfway outburst, and most people don't regard them as a threat.

This contempt is undoubtedly an opportunity for the federal government to survive this catastrophe. President Lincoln decided to take advantage of the opportunity to give it a go.

At the end of 1864, under the cover of the federal government, the members of these revolutionary organizations began to secretly return to the European continent in batches.

On the ocean, a few families are happy and a few are sad.

A true revolutionary is naturally full of enthusiasm and ready to devote himself to the revolutionary cause at home; It's different for people who cheat on funds, who stay well in the United States and occasionally publish a few articles as revolutionary leaders, who wants to really run and work hard?

Revolution kills, and the more conservative the country, the greater the risk of revolution.

On the contrary, countries that are heavily influenced by liberalism are safer, at least without worrying about being scratched before they are convicted.

Stephen and Gapori happened to be placed on the same boat. Presumably, the Americans were ready to let them cooperate, and put together the leaders of organizations with similar political positions.

On the surface, there is no so-called conflict between the Hungarian and Italian Independence organizations.

After all, Hungarian independence would not have interests in the Italian region, and the Italian independence organization had no interest in the Hungarian region.

On the contrary, there was a serious conflict between the French Revolutionary Party and the Italian independence organization, and many young French people believed that the Italian region should be part of France, on the grounds that Napoleon was Italian.

Don't think this reason is nonsense, it's good to have a reason. To put it bluntly, the French Revolution only needs the participation of the people of Paris, and other regions will echo it, and there is no need to unite with the Italians.

In this case, the things that have been eaten in the stomach naturally cannot be spit out.

It is easy to abandon the Kingdom of Sardinia, if the government really does it, it will keep the French people for another revolution.

And the leaders of the two organizations, which are considered to be friendly and cooperative, did not communicate happily.

……

Stephen explained: "Mr. Gapoli, if you take action in the Venetian region, we can cooperate.

If action is taken elsewhere, then we are sorry, but we cannot guarantee that the Austrians will be contained. ”

This is the truth, he Stephen thinks that he can pull troops in the Hungarian region and pull more than three digits, which is all God's favor.

During the Revolution of 1848, the Republic of Hungary did not gain the support of the people. Now he is left with the slogan "Hungarian independence", can he still win popular support?

At that time, everyone was very arrogant, and when defining the Magyar nation, they did not think that the serfs at the bottom were compatriots at all, and did not give them the corresponding national treatment.

The Hungarian aristocracy was primarily responsible for this, refusing to recognize them as members of the same clan in order to protect their own interests.

In terms of blood, the middle and lower class Hungarian people are the real Magyars, but the upper class nobles are all outsiders, not Magyars.

Culturally, the Hungarian aristocracy was heavily influenced by German culture. Less than 5 percent of the people who can write in German and Raffar, and less than half of the people who are proficient in Hungarian are proficient.

On the contrary, most of the middle and lower classes of the population spoke Hungarian, and about three of them also learned German, and the aristocracy was mainly influenced to write in German.

This is due to historical reasons, and if you look closely, you will find that a large part of the nobility of the European countries came from the German region.

At the same time as the king was exported, the nobles were naturally also exported. In addition, there were many wars in Europe in the Middle Ages, and the German region was poor at that time, so there was no choice but to join the army to fight.

Under the guise of luck, the lucky ones stood out and gradually struggled to become a nobleman. Over time, the number of nobles from the German region gradually increased.

The existence of the Republic of Hungary is too short to recognize the identity of the people at the bottom, and naturally it cannot be expected that the people at the bottom have much identification with this republic.

In order to solve the problem once and for all, Franz directly created the Austrian nation. Originally, he wanted to use the German directly, but this title was resisted by many people, and he chose the Austrian family as the next best thing.

This is a characteristic of European culture, and many people in Austria identify with only Austria, but not with the German Confederation at that time.

Of course, they agreed with Austria later to form a new Holy Roman Empire, for a very simple reason, Austria was absolutely dominant.

This is the nature of human nature, for example: if someone wants to merge your company, you are naturally reluctant; When you merge with someone else's company, it's a different story.

Austrians not only include Hungarians, but many people who do not know the nationality have been plugged into it by Franz, and it has become the second largest ethnic group in Austria.

Nations can create, let alone others. Germans are known as Northern Austrians, while ethnic Austrians are known as Southern Austrians and belong to a branch of the German nation.

Because of the long-term marriage with the nomadic tribes of southern Austria and the invasion by the Ottoman Empire, many other reasons caused the difference in people's living habits.

Whether the outside world believes it or not, the Vienna government believes it anyway. The family histories of the local nobles prove that their ancestors came from the German region.

……

These various factors directly led to the difficulties of the Hungarian independence organization. Even within the identified Magyars, there are many who believe that they are also part of the German nation.

There is no way, there is not enough evidence in the hand. Coupled with thousands of years of marriage, most of them are mixed-race, and the bloodline cannot be proven.

It can only be proven from cultural tradition that this makes Stephen even more desperate. Most of the independent members of Hungary could speak German, but those who could use Hungarian became a minority.

Without the revival of the Hungarian language by István-Széchenyi and the revival of traditional Hungarian culture, where would the Hungarian nation come from?

In this era, transportation was inconvenient and communication was restricted. Even with the telegraph, no one would have the luxury of delivering such inconsequential news at such a high cost, and Gapoli would not have known about it.

He thinks that Stephen's refusal is for profit, after all, no one dares to be a philanthropist on such a big issue. So he promised:

"Mr. Stephen, don't be in a hurry to refuse, this matter will not be for nothing.

The Austrians are our common enemy, they are so strong that only if we unite we have a chance of winning.

Now that you have helped contain the Austrians, I can guarantee that we will do our best to help you in the future when you need them.

Lombardy and Venezia are still in the hands of the Austrians, and there are still many opportunities for cooperation in the future, so you don't have to worry about my promise being invalidated. ”

Now Gapori can only make empty promises, and he can't give the actual benefits even if he wants to. The entire family base of the Italian National Salvation Army is more than 1,000 people.

If the revolution succeeds, then he, who is in charge of the power of a place, may be able to come up with real money, but now his own funds are insufficient.

Stephen was even more tragic, and the Hungarian Independence Organization was nominally strong. The Hungarian independence movement of 1848 proved their mettle, but they were at the top of their debut and then fell all the way to the bottom.

There are not no supporters in the country, but it is a pity that after so many years, everyone's desire for independence has decreased.

When you are young, you can work hard for your ideals, and when you have a lot of wives and children, it is not so simple to let them take risks.

Besides, even if you mobilize these people, you can't make waves. The ethnic division, which was not paid attention to at the beginning, directly made itself into a very small minority.

At this moment, Stephen had an urge to change the name to the Austrian Revolutionary Party. In any case, the appeal of this name is at least broad enough that it is not limited to one ethnic group.

Although Austria has developed well in recent years, there are still many frustrated people, and it should be much easier to recruit people under the banner of the Austrian Revolutionary Party.

But he was unwilling to compromise and admit defeat. Once renamed the Austrian Revolutionary Party, the Hungarian Independence Organization ceased to exist, and the goal of Hungarian independence was abandoned, and the Hungarian nation was recognized as part of Austria.

After hesitating for a moment, Stephen still didn't want to lose face, so he bragged: "Mr. Gappori, it's not that we don't want to contribute, but we really can't do it."

To contain the Austrians, then at least hundreds of thousands of people must be organized to revolt. Do you think that after the last Hungarian War of Independence, the Vienna government would not be wary?

For so many years, they have not given up suppressing us. As you may have heard, Austria is the least surviving revolutionary group of the revolutionary groups in exile.

The notorious Vienna government wanted warrant is a sword hanging over our heads. Over the years, we have had more than a dozen branches destroyed, hundreds of people slaughtered, and our organizational structure severely damaged.

For the sake of confidentiality, many of our contacts are one-line contacts without any backup information. With the destruction of these branches, we have lost contact with members of the more than nine levels. ”

Looking at Stephen with a grief-stricken face, Gapori didn't know what to say. He had also heard of the vienna government's brutality in attacking independent revolutionary organizations.

The Italian National Salvation Army was not attacked, because it had just been formed, and they had not gone to the Austrian territory to do things, so naturally they would not have attracted the attention of the Vienna government.

Gappori looked ashamed and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know you were facing such a bad form. ”

Seeing that Gapori was tricked, Stephen breathed a sigh of relief. He's still a bit of a disciplined person, and he doesn't want to make promises casually to trick people, after all, they really don't have many allies now.

It would not have been a tragedy if there had not been a few great thieves in front of them, in case the eyes of the Vienna government had set their eyes on them.

Stephen didn't want to be the number one target, which meant he could die in an accident at any time. Unless you live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, you are not safe anywhere.

The Hungarian Independence Organization was able to survive very well, not because of its strength, but because it learned to hide itself.

Since the defeat of the Great Revolution, they have remained in the stage of the cannonball party for a long time, and have not launched a substantial rebellion.

The so-called sabotage is to write a few articles attacking the Vienna government, or to send people to put up small advertisements, not to mention propaganda slogans for national independence.

This is not Stephen's pot, it is mainly revolutionary talents with real combat ability, all participated in the Hungarian independence movement and basically died in the war of independence.

Most of the fish that escaped the net were the mouthpiece party responsible for public opinion propaganda. Because there was no combat effectiveness, it did not appear in the rebel army.

Because there were too many people involved, they were small people at that time, and they slipped through the net when they were liquidated after the war.

After escaping the first wave, everyone had a ghost in their hearts, afraid that they would be found out and would go to prison, so they chose to go into exile overseas.

Originally, I ate by mouth, but even if I changed the time and place, there was still no big change.

After so many years, their theoretical foundation and organizational skills have indeed improved, but it is too difficult for them to take up arms and fight for independence.

Being able to brag is also an ability, and just looking at this ability, the Hungarian independence organization is still very nourishing in the United States.

Relying on his incorruptible tongue, he successfully fooled many people, and everyone thought that they were a gang of outlaws, and the gangsters in the United States avoided them.

Thanks to their prestige, they also sheltered many Hungarians who immigrated to the United States, and gradually gained a foothold in the United States.

The more nourishing the life is, the more afraid people are of death.

Now Stephen and others have no will to revolution, and under the banner of the Hungarian independence organization, that is, to protect their own interests, not to lead the Hungarian independence.

The United States in this era is not a pure land. Over the years, they have also accumulated a lot of family funds, if it weren't for their bragging, deterring a group of jackals, tigers and leopards, the good days would have ended long ago.
