Make France Great Again

August 7, 1849

The Austrian Foreign Office received a personal letter from the British Foreign Secretary Palmerston, in which Palmerston objected to Schwarzenberg's proposal to "maintain the restoration of the established territory of 1815". The letter implicitly pointed out that it was impossible to restore the territory of 1815. Belgium was destined not to become a member of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, and could only seek cooperation while maintaining the existing system.

Felix Schwarzenberg, who did not get the support of Britain, could only abandon his strategy and turn to end the long-running Ossa War.

Under the instruction of Felix Schwarzenberg, the Austrian ambassador to Sardinia representing the interests of Habsburg was entrusted by Felix Schwarzenberg to become the plenipotentiary representative of the negotiations.

Since the Kingdom of Sardinia did not receive the full support of France on the tno line, the Sardinia did not have the original calmness, and the compensation demanded by the Austrian Empire was not an unacceptable figure for the Kingdom of Sardinia. Gritting his teeth, he agreed to all the conditions of the Austrian Empire.

[In the tno line, after Tocqueville explained the situation of the Kingdom of Sardinia to Louis Napoleon, Louis Napoleon immediately decided to support the Kingdom of Sardinia, and Tocqueville explained France’s determination to Earl Huebner. It also moved. Seeing this, the Austrian Empire continued to reduce on the basis of the original conditions, and at the same time asked the Louis Napoleon authorities to maintain the 1815 border request.

The result is that not only did France fail to gain the gratitude of the Sardinian Dynasty, but instead made the Sardinian Dynasty think that everything was due to itself. At the same time, the request for territorial maintenance in 1815 really disgusted Louis Napoleon.

If it weren't for Britain's more emphasis on real interests rather than illusory orthodox principles, France might have to fight against the French allies again. 】

The "Orsa Treaty" was established under the witness of Radetzky and Charles Alberto (Sardinian Prime Minister who also served as Minister of War and Minister of Foreign Affairs).

In addition to acknowledging the maintenance of the territory established before the Great Revolution and compensating 70 million francs, the Austrian ambassador also hinted that the Kingdom of Sardinia wanted to gain the full trust of the Austrian Empire, and the only way to do so was for the new king to marry the princess of the Habsburg family.

The conditions of the Austrian ambassador are simply too humiliating for the new king Victor Immanuel. This is equivalent to Austria placing a spy and the "overlord" in the court of the Sardinian dynasty. Don't try to hide all Ding's actions from the Austrian side.

[PS: Facts have proved that Habsburg women have never been reliable once. They were educated by the court as exquisite egoism. Once they marry into other countries, their core interests quickly change from the Austrian Empire to the country she married. .

In order to appease Victor Immanuel's anger, the Royal Palace of Turin has smashed several exquisite porcelains from the East, each of which is a priceless treasure.

More than 100,000 people died, 70 million francs were lost, and an Austrian princess was obtained as a result.

For the Sardinian Dynasty, it was simply a business that lost money so much that they could no longer lose money, and now they can only smash their teeth and swallow it in their stomachs.

On August 7, European countries and the British Kingdom, which hangs high overseas, also successively obtained the substantive content of the "Ossa Treaty".

It can be said that several families are happy and some are sad.

The result of the signing of the "Treaty of Osa" surprised Tocqueville. He thought that without the support of France, the situation that the Austrian Empire would open its mouth to the lion of the Kingdom of Sardinia did not happen. Feel.

Tocqueville went to the Sardinian mansion again to look for the Sardinian ambassador to France, but was told by the military attache that the Sardinian ambassador was not in the mansion.

Tocqueville knew that this was just a "protest" by the Sardinian Dynasty that the French Republic did not help the Sardinian Kingdom.

The attitude of the Kingdom of Sardinia made Tocqueville somewhat resentful. In his opinion, the French Republic was not the nanny of the Kingdom of Sardinia, and there was no need for them to compromise for the benefit of the Kingdom of Sardinia.

However, in order to win over the Kingdom of Sardinia, Tocqueville decided to go to the Elysee Palace to ask Jerome Bonaparte to properly promise some benefits to the Kingdom of Sardinia so that the Kingdom of Sardinia could join the French camp.

Tocqueville, who was going to the Elysee Palace in a carriage, was stopped by two guards who were in charge of guarding the gate of the Elysee Palace when he got off the car and entered the Elysee Palace.

"Gentlemen, I am Tocqueville, Minister of Foreign Affairs! I want to enter the Elysee Palace to visit His Excellency the President!" Tocqueville, who was afraid that the two guards guarding the gate would not recognize him, reported his home to two guards with unfamiliar faces.

One of the guards glanced at Tocqueville and said immediately: "Minister Tocqueville, please go back! The President is not in the Elysee Palace. Your Excellency has already gone to the provinces with Secretary-General Pessini and Adjutant Canrobert! "

"Going to the provinces? When did it happen?" Tocqueville looked at the guard suspiciously and asked.

According to the Constitution of the French Republic, there are no restrictions on the President of the French Republic during the parliamentary recess.

Jerome Bonaparte led the bureaucrats of the Elysee Palace to visit the provinces and did not violate any legal problems.

However, this result still made Tocqueville feel uncomfortable as if he was blocked by something.

"Just yesterday!" the guard responded.

"Did your Excellency the President say when he will come back?" Tocqueville hurriedly asked.

"Minister Tocqueville, please don't embarrass me! I'm just a soldier. For specific questions, you should ask Director Mocal! He is the office director of the Elysee Palace!" The guard looked at Tocqueville helplessly.

Seeing that he could not get accurate information from the guards, Tocqueville had to go to the home of Mokar, the director of the Elysee Palace Office.

Mokar, who was approached by Tocqueville, responded vaguely: "It may be a month, or it may be two! Your Excellency will definitely return to Paris at the end of October!"

"Mr. Mokar, do you know the specific itinerary of His Excellency the President?" Tocqueville asked with some disappointment.

"Mr. Minister, the president's itinerary is not in the area I am in charge of, so I don't know where the president is now!" Mokar spread his hands and said to Tocqueville, and then continued: "But your Excellency is a country after all. He will be the focus of attention wherever he goes, so you only need to keep an eye on the newspapers to understand."

"I see!" Tocqueville gave up looking for Jerome Bonaparte.

Tocqueville, who hastily bid farewell to Mokar, walked alone on the street.

"Newspapers, newspapers! French Senators go to Emra to see Henry V! Newspapers, newspapers!"

Tocqueville was "woke up" by the newsboy's sound of selling newspapers, and Tocqueville hurriedly stopped the newspaper boy.

"Sir, do you need a newspaper?" said the newspaper boy to Tocqueville.

"Bring me a newspaper!"

"Mr. 7 centimes!"

Tocqueville took money out of his pocket, but found that there were only Napoleon gold coins in his pocket. He handed the Napoleon gold coins to the boy and told him not to look for them.

"What a generous gentleman you are!"

Xiao Tong thanked Tocqueville and left.
