263 The First Anti-French Alliance Broken
"Sir, the Austrian Foreign Minister agreed to the conditions we have proposed. This is a truce treaty. Please browse and sign it."
Li Wei took the document handed over by the Foreign Minister, and it was written in two versions, French and German. Obviously, Li Wei could only understand French...
This is the most important knowledge that Li Wei gave him after he traveled through time. He had no language talent and was unwilling to waste time learning multilingual languages. Now he only knows two languages, one French and the other is the native language he brought to him before traveling through time.
After seeing it, Li Wei nodded slightly with satisfaction, raised his eyes and asked his foreign minister: "Austrian diplomatic envoy is still unwilling to come to Paris?"
"Yes, the Chief Consul and the senior officials of the Vienna government are afraid of the 'hypnosis ability' of adults, and are unwilling to meet the adults in person, and are even more unwilling to come to the city of Paris."
After hearing this, Li Wei sighed speechlessly.
His secret was finally revealed.
This is also impossible. If the parliament of the French Republic is not controlled, how could Livi suppress the revolutionary party and those who oppose him so easily?
However, this shortcut is so terrifying that governments of the anti-French coalition countries believe that Levi can hypnotize.
Even the governments of the anti-French alliance also inferred that based on Li Wei's behavior, Levi is likely to have set conditions for hypnosis in Paris. Once they enter Paris and meet Li Wei, they will inevitably be hypnotized and controlled by Li Wei.
Although the reasons for speculation are deviated, Li Wei has to admit that there are still many smart people in the Anti-French Alliance, and his administrative guidance steps and procedures have been almost guessed...
Fortunately, in order to avoid panic within the country, the senior governments of the anti-French coalition did not disclose the news that Levi would hypnotize, let alone the preconditions for Levi to hypnotize.
Therefore, only the top leaders of the anti-French alliance countries are sure that Levi will hypnotize.
Even some ordinary small countries don’t know this information.
After all, the ability to control people's hearts is too terrible. Just like the human version of the devil, it is easy to completely destroy the morale of the country. After all, when facing the devil, humans are naturally shorter in their aura.
This is the same as the instinct that is engraved in human bones.
As for promoting Levi's hypnosis ability to expand the people and the army's determination to resist, this idea is too naive.
After all, the French army was not killed on the battlefield. Like the army of ordinary countries, they would leave a life to capture, but they would be sent to the labor camp as a coolie.
In the face of the threat of death, even the real devil is willing to surrender. Once the news that Li Wei is a real devil spreads, it may inspire some people to fight to the death, but there will definitely be more people who are intimidated by the devil's ability, and they will surrender without fighting because of fear!
This is why the anti-French alliance blocked Levi's hypnosis ability.
Of course, there is another very important thing: everything is based on reasoning. There is no direct evidence of the anti-French alliance's hypnosis ability. Even the top government officials do not believe it. They are not willing to take the initiative out of caution and hostility.
After all, the ability to control people's hearts is too amazing. In the eyes of Europeans, I'm afraid only God can do it...
Even Satan, the lord of hell in folk mythology and legend, is just bewitching people's hearts and has never heard of completely manipulating people's hearts.
“What about the Prussian attitude?”
Li Wei put down the documents in his hand and looked up and asked.
"Return to the Chief Consul, after the Austrians withdrew from the war, the Prussians were alone and would not continue to fight against us. Moreover, the Austrian negotiator represents the Holy Roman Empire, and Prussia is also a member of the Holy Roman Empire!
After the signing of this armistice agreement, peace will be achieved on the European continent.
However, the British had not responded yet. The British relied on the strait barrier and their Royal Navy to block our country.
The conditions for peace proposed by the British were very harsh and demanded that we withdraw from all lands occupied after 1790."
"The British are so rampant, and they have the capital. Our colonial route has been completely cut off by the British Royal Navy. They have a strategic advantage and naturally will not easily agree to our armistice treaty.
However, the British army was not good, and even if they continued to maintain war relations with them, the British would not dare to land in France.
Don't pay attention to them now."
After the Foreign Minister bowed and left, Li Wei opened the armistice treaty signed with the Holy Roman Empire again, and a smile couldn't help but smirk.
In the treaty, the Austrian Netherlands (later Belgium) was assigned to the French Republic, and the forces of the Holy Roman Empire represented by Austria secretly recognized that France and the Holy Roman Empire took the Rhine as their natural border!
This is actually the French army who acquiesced to Levi's acquiesced to annex all the German states on the west bank of the Rhine. Without the support of Austrian and Prussian troops, those German states did not even have the chance to struggle in front of the French Defense Forces. Even Luxembourg, which had the strongest military strength, was just a larger ant in Levi's eyes.
The French Defence Force only takes three days to destroy Luxembourg!
Of course, it is precisely because the German state west of the Rhine that the people were small and small, were abandoned by the Holy Roman Empire.
This time the big head in my mouth was the Austrian Netherlands, which is Belgium.
The industrial strength of Belgium is not weaker than that of the Netherlands (north of the Netherlands), and is one of the most developed industrial regions in Western Europe.
In addition, the Holy Roman Empire would also recognize the sovereignty and independence of the various states in the Italian Peninsula. In other words, all the little brothers who developed in the Italian region have cut off the relationship between the suzerain states...
Li Wei has not yet been able to occupy the Italian Peninsula for a long time, so the condition proposed is to let the Italians dominate the Italians and to keep all Italian states independent.
Of course, the two Sicily kingdoms must be split and become the Kingdom of Naples and the Kingdom of Sicily.
The king of the Bourbon family, the crowns of the two Sicily kingdoms will be removed.
Even if Livi withdraws troops from the Kingdom of Naples and has endorsed the Holy Roman Empire, the kings of the two Sicily kings, Ferdinando I, will never be able to regain control of the Kingdom of Naples.
The support of the British was far less useful than that of the Holy Roman Empire in Europe. After all, everyone knows that the British army could not land.
What's more, the people of the Kingdom of Naples have just been abandoned by Ferdinando I. How many of them will support this king?
Even the aristocratic class of the Kingdom of Naples was dissatisfied with the escape of King Ferdinand I of the Bourbon family.
You said you could not defeat everyone and surrender. First, you said you resisted to the end, and then apply oil to the soles of your feet when the enemy came. What does this mean?
Do you think of everyone as a fool and stay in Naples to fight the French desperately?
Since Ferdinando I made this trick of betraying his teammates, his reputation in the Kingdom of Naples has plummeted. Now he has no endorsement of the Holy Roman Empire, so he can only stay on Sicily and become the King of Sicily.
The three crowns were downgraded to one. I wonder what kind of turmoil will happen to Ferdinando's inner world.
This is the sorrow of the monarch of a small country. Under the general trend of the continent, he is simply unable to resist the choice of a great country.
The current situation in Europe is basically dominated by the five powerful countries, that is, the countries that were later called the great powers by the Eastern world, namely Tsarist Russia, the Kingdom of Prussia, Austria (now the dominant of the Holy Roman Empire), the United Kingdom of Britain and Ireland, and the French Republic.
As for the Dutch, the navy was pretty good, but the army was very bad, mainly because of few soldiers. In today's era, the Dutch's maritime hegemony has been replaced by Britain.
If the above five European countries can unite, it is really easy to unify Europe. Unfortunately, the main confrontation of these major countries on the European continent are these major countries. Other countries either maintain neutrality or actively or passively choose to take sides.
As for the Ottoman Empire, although it was also one of the powerful countries in this era, it was not recognized by European countries.
In addition to these territorial concessions in the Armistice Treaty, the Holy Roman Empire would also abide by all the actions of the French army on the Italian Peninsula.
This is actually telling Li Wei that as long as France does not forcibly annex the Italian Peninsula, the Holy Roman Empire will not interfere whether it is supporting the puppet state or exporting French revolutionary ideas to establish a republic.
It is obvious that the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire regarded Li Wei as a dictator influenced by the French revolutionary ideas.
As for Li Wei's act of suppressing the French Revolutionary Party after taking office, he could not erase his identity as a revolutionary in the eyes of various European monarchical countries.
The reason is very simple. The French Revolutionary Party has long been used to the monarchy on the European continent.
Li Wei's act of suppressing the French Revolutionary Party was only seen by the monarchy on the European continent as a purge of dissidents.
After all, none of the members of the parliament of the French Republic were purged and were early classified by European governments.
It’s not that if Li Wei raises a butcher knife to the French Revolutionary Party, he will be regarded as a counter-revolutionary by European countries!
European governments determine whether the French government has a revolutionary ‘attribute’, mainly because they view the French government’s handling of ancient aristocratic and religious privileges.
After Li Wei came to power, he had no intention of restoring aristocratic and religious privileges at all. What was he not a revolutionary?
Even in the United Kingdom of Britain and Ireland, which is known as the most enlightened, nobles and religions enjoy certain privileges.
Therefore, in the eyes of European governments, Levi was a foregone conclusion of revolutionary dictator, no different from Robert Spear before, and at most he could control more power.
This means that Li Wei will never want to whitewash and become a member of them in the monarchy on the European continent. Even if Li Wei ascends the throne and becomes emperor, it will be useless.
Li Wei also knew this. Before he could level the entire European continent, he would inevitably be hostile to all the monarchical countries in Europe.
Even in the French mainland, some people still tend to protect the royal party.
However, under Li Wei's cruel means, the royal party did not dare to show its banner.
Even many French civilians regarded Li Wei as an extremist faction in the revolutionary party.
The French people call Levi's faction "Charles Party", but no one dares to say that in public. The Levi government once issued a law to control speech. Anyone who criticizes the great French leader Lord Levi and his government will be arrested. According to the serious circumstances, they will be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years and not more than ten years...
Well, the term fixed-term imprisonment was invented by Li Wei, but it is actually sent to the labor camp for labor reform!
The labor agency now fully assumes the function of a prison, and even the labor agency is divided into categories. There are labor agency departments that specialize in managing prisoners of war, and departments that specialize in managing minor offenders. Naturally, there are departments that manage severe criminals.
Even these departments have subdivisions, which distinguish the elderly, young men (just child labor!), young men, and women who have not been selected into the Jiafangsi.
Among them, the elderly camps basically have no living security, and are the category with the highest mortality rate among labor agencies!
The workload of the youth camp is the lightest because they will have a lot of time to be compulsory education. In addition to basic literacy and simple arithmetic, there are a large amount of historical and political textbooks.
This is the responsibility of the education department, trying to brainwash these young child laborers into people who have a good impression and even loyalty to Lord Li Wei.
After all, teenage child laborers generally do not work for a lifetime, and the sentences are almost full after adulthood.
The reason why there is no girl camp in the labor service is that no matter what kind of girl they look like, they will be sent to the Jiaofangsi for training.
The reason is very simple. There are many rich people and bureaucrats in this era who like this young boy!
Of course, if it is really ugly, it will be incorporated into the women's camp of the labor agency, but this type of person is very small and no relevant department is set up to manage it separately.
The Young and Strong Men's Camp, especially the Young and Strong Men's Camp in the category of prisoners of war, is the most valued by labor agencies. The mortality rate of the Young and Strong Men's Camp is also the lowest. As long as the daily workload is completed, the workers in the Young and Strong Men's Camp will not feel the taste of hunger.
The workers in the young men's camp were also the reserve force of the French National Wehrmacht. In addition to the Labor Dispatch Department, civilians from the logistics department also came to inspect regularly.
The different genders and ages of the Labor Dispatch Department have different directions, which fully demonstrates that it is within your ability. Of course, elderly people who are considered to be of little use value by the Li Wei government do all kinds of work and transfer to wherever there is a shortage of people. This is also an important reason for the high mortality rate of elderly people.
When Li Wei conceived the next strategic plan in his mind, the reward prompt sound of the total war system suddenly rang.
