Make France Great Again

Chapter 762 Prussia: 1 wakes up and becomes the enemy of the world

"It would be great if the Kingdom of Prussia is willing to contribute its share to peace in Europe!"

Walewski said to Manteuffel with a smile, and he seemed to agree with Manteuffel's idea.

"So, the French Empire is willing to support us?" Manteuffel asked Valewski excitedly.

"As long as the opposition of the Kingdom of Prussia can be supported by the vast majority of countries in tomorrow's conference! The French Empire will naturally follow suit!" Walewski continued to use ambiguous words to fool Manteuffel.

Valewski's words undoubtedly sounded to Manteuffel as a disguised support for them, because the Kingdom of Prussia had already "convinced" the Russian Empire and the Kingdom of Britain (Manteuffel believed), as long as these two If a country is willing to stop the Austrian Empire from taking action against Poland, the French Empire will naturally follow suit.

"Thank you very much!" Manteuffel nodded to Valewski.

"Mr. Manteuffel, if you have nothing else to do, let's end our conversation here!" Walewski issued an eviction order to Manteuffel.

"Thank you for coming here in person! Mr. Walewski!" Mandofi stretched out his hand and Walewski said.

"Nothing! This is what I should do!" Walewski said to Manteuffel with a smile still.

When Manteuffel's hand held Valewski's hand together, Manteuffel suddenly approached Valewski and whispered in Valewski's ear: "Valewski Mr. Fsky, I have sent someone to deliver the gift to your mansion! I hope you will be satisfied!"

After Manteuffel finished speaking, he quickly let go of Walewski's hand, and then distanced himself from Walewski.

"Thank you very much!" Walewski nodded indifferently and responded.

Manteuffel then left the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and Valewski returned to the Tuileries Palace in a carriage.

When Valewski arrived at the Tuileries Palace, Mokar hurriedly told Valewski that Jerome Bonaparte was waiting for him in the study.

Under the leadership of Mokar, Valewski entered the study.

At this time, Jerome Bonaparte was sitting on a back chair with his legs crossed. The arrival of Valewski made him lower his legs.

"What did Manteuffel tell you?" Jérôme Bonaparte, who was sitting straight, asked calmly.

Valewski hurriedly told Jérôme Bonaparte all the contents of Manteuffel's conversation with him. After listening to Valewski's description, Jérôme Bonaparte showed an expression of disbelief. With an expression of belief, he had never thought that the diplomatic route of the Kingdom of Prussia could develop in the direction of a mighty smile decades in advance.

The Russian Empire, which was supposed to be a back-to-back ally, was actually sold by the Kingdom of Prussia. Did the Kingdom of Prussia dislike too many of its allies, or was it confident in itself?

Or maybe it's because Prussia itself is a country with poor diplomacy, and Bismarck's appearance is a complete miracle.

At this moment, Jerome Bonaparte was a little unconfident in his diplomacy. He immediately asked Valewski: "Do you think the Kingdom of Prussia will really abandon the Russian Empire?"

"Your Majesty! Under normal circumstances, it would be difficult for the Kingdom of Prussia to give up the Russian Empire! However, I don't know now!" Valewski shook his head and said to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Forget it!" Jerome Bonaparte also shook his head and replied to Valevsky: "You immediately send someone to tell Neserrodie and Gorchakov the news, and the rest Just leave it alone!"

"Yes! Your Majesty!" Walewski immediately replied to Jerome Bonaparte.

I'm afraid Manteuffel never imagined that Jerome Bonaparte would tell the Russian Empire the contents of the meeting between the Kingdom of Prussia and the French Empire.

After all, the relationship between the French Empire and the Russian Empire would always be hostile in the eyes of all countries.

Therefore, Manteuffel believed that what he said to Valewski would never reach the ears of Russia.

However, he would not have thought that the first place on Jerome Bonaparte's list of countries to kill was not the Russian Empire, but the Kingdom of Prussia.

After Valewski left the back study, he immediately sent his men to tell Neserrodie and Gorchakov what Manteuffel had said.

Both parties were dissatisfied with Manteuffel's "treacherous" behavior, and were also curious about why Valewski told them this.

"My Lord Minister said that the relationship between the French Empire and the Russian Empire is not blindly hostile, but a combination of mutual competition and mutual cooperation! The Russian Empire's goal should not be limited to advancing westward, and going south is also a strategy! "

Neserrodie and Gorchakov realized that France just did not want them to continue attacking Europe. If the Russian Empire was willing to march into Central Asia, France might still support them.

The relationship between Britain and France is not as strong as imagined, and the Russian Empire may still be able to benefit from it.

"Thank you to your minister for me!"

Time soon came to the start of the second meeting. As usual, the eight ministers entered the hall and sat down first, and then the national representatives in the audience also arrived at the hall.

When the time came to 1:55, Walewski appeared in front of everyone again.

"After a day of consideration, I believe you already have the answer in your mind! Let us wait quietly for another 5 minutes and then reveal the answer!" Walewski said solemnly.

When the grandfather clock struck twice dullly, the second meeting officially began.

As the arbiter, Walewski once again repeated to everyone present the last unresolved topic, the ownership of the monarch of Poland.

Then he pointed at Manteuffel, the representative of the Kingdom of Prussia who opposed Archduke Maximilian, and asked them if they still insisted that Maximilian was not suitable to hold the position of Grand Duke of Warsaw.

Manteuffel firmly stated that Archduke Maximilian's appointment as Archduke of Warsaw itself would have a destructive effect on the balance of power in Europe. Therefore, he proposed to veto Archduke Maximilian's appointment as Archduke of Warsaw and replace it with Saxe-Gotha. The family or the House of Wittelsbach chooses a suitable prince to succeed the Grand Duke of Poland.

Only in this way can the balance of the entire European continent be maintained and European peace will not face another collapse.

Faced with Mantofese's speech, Count Bauer expressed clear opposition. He believed that Archduke Maximilian's appointment as monarch was the will of all Polish subjects, and the Kingdom of Prussia had no reason to oppose it.

As for the fact that Archduke Maximilian served as the Grand Council of Warsaw and undermined the balance of the European continent, it is even more nonsense.

The new Poland was not a dependent state of the Austrian Empire, so the relationship between the Austrian Empire and Poland was purely a country-to-country relationship.

As soon as Count Bauer finished speaking, Walewski immediately called on all countries to vote on whether Archduke Maximilian should serve as the monarch of Poland.

Just when Manteuffel happily thought that he had the support of Britain and Russia, Russia first gave Manteuffel a heavy blow.

Ambassador Gorchakov first expressed his attitude, "The Russian Empire supports Maximilian as the monarch of Poland?"

Then, Neserrodie also repeated the same sentence, willing to support Archduke Maximilian as the monarch of Poland.

Then, the Earl of Clarendon of the British Kingdom also smiled and said: "The British Kingdom supports Archduke Maximilian as the monarch!"

With Britain and Russia as examples, Switzerland, Turkey, and Turkey, which were still hesitant at first, immediately expressed their support for Archduke Maximilian as the monarch of Poland.

After 6 of the eight ministers chose to support Archduke Maximilian, Walewski had no choice but to cast a helpless look at Manteuffel.

At this time, Manteuffel's eyes were dull and distracted. He had never thought about the current situation. He didn't understand why the Russian Empire did not stand on his side and why the British Kingdom supported the Austrian Empire.

Just when Manteuffel was stunned, Valewski's voice appeared in his ears: "Mr. Manteuffel, Mr. Manteuffel!"

Manteuffel, who had come back to his senses, looked at Walewski with a hint of pleading in his eyes. He wanted Walewski to end it like last time.

Unfortunately, Walewski did not do what he wanted. He just reminded him lightly: "Mr. Manteuffel, is the Kingdom of Prussia still opposed to it now?"

"I..." Manteuffel felt a lump in his throat. He wanted to continue to hold opposing opinions, but he was afraid that the British, French and Russian families would be completely isolated.

"Mr. Manteuffel, it's your turn to make a choice!" Walewski reminded him "intimately" again.

"I..." Manteuffel said to Walewski with difficulty: "Prussia agreed to Maximilian becoming the monarch of Poland!"

After seeing that the Kingdom of Prussia finally surrendered, Walewski said with a smile: "Since we have unanimously approved it, this issue is considered a new chapter!"

Next, Walewski put the Danube Principality on the map and publicly announced that the Austrian Empire had protective rights over the Danube Principality, and Austrian troops could be stationed in the Danube Principality.

Everyone present basically had no problem with this proposal.

After settling the ownership of the Danube Principality, Count Clarendon also debated the issue of whether Bessarabia should secede from Russia.

Russia and Britain each insisted on their own opinions and were unwilling to give in.

In the end, under Valewski's mediation, both parties took a step back.

Bessarabia can remain within the framework of Russia, but it must remain autonomous.
