Iron Dynasty

Really...really...

Franz couldn't believe his ears. Now Austria needs military assistance the most. If it can get the help of the Empire, it will no longer be a problem to thwart the conspiracy of France and Prussia to divide Austria.

Excited, Franz just wanted to agree, but he immediately thought that no pie would fall from the sky, so he said, Is it just out of kindness that the Empire is helping Austria so much?

Of course not. Tang Wenjie's expression was still very indifferent, he said: In addition to the military defense treaty, the empire hopes that the countries organized by the Vienna Convention will be able to trade freely and eliminate tariffs and trade barriers with each other.

Franz was stunned for a moment. Tang Wenjie's words seemed very fair, but in fact it was very unfair, because now even a fool knows that the empire has strong industrial capabilities and industry and commerce.

Once the tariffs are removed, a large number of cheap and high-quality imperial goods will flood Austria, and Austria can sell only some agricultural products to the empire. This move is almost equivalent to allowing Austria to unilaterally cancel the tariffs.

Tang Wenjie watched Franz's expression. Of course, the Empire would not be kind enough to help Austria. This time, his goal in coming to Europe was to establish another form of colonization, economic colonization.

With the strong industrial power of the empire, any economic treaties that seem equal are actually unequal, because these countries are simply unable to compete with the empire.

Pacing back and forth in front of Tang Wenjie, Franz fell into thinking, if he did not agree to the conditions of the empire, Austria would face a situation of being divided up.

By agreeing to the terms of the empire, Austria would be sacked in terms of trade, but even so, the interests of the Austrian royal family would not be damaged.

Even directly participating in the trade with the empire, the royal members will be richer. In this case, it is very cost-effective to sign a treaty.

Thinking of this, he said: I sign!

Tang Wenjie stood up and said, Congratulations, Your Majesty, from now on, the Empire and Austria are members of the Vienna Convention, and more countries will definitely join in the future.

Franz, a practical man, said: So how is the Empire going to help us through this.

In Suez, 2,000 kilometers away from Venice, there are 10,000 soldiers of the Empire. They can reach Venice in three days by steamship. Tang Wenjie's words were very powerful.

Franz laughed, Tang Wenjie's words were very straightforward, if France and Prussia did not retreat, the Empire would fulfill the treaty and intervene militarily in this war.

If this is the case, I will first announce the signing of a treaty with the Empire. If they don't listen to the dissuasion, I hope the Empire can help us repel these invaders. Franz said.

Of course. Tang Wenjie said with a smile.

Then the two further discussed the issue of the treaty, and agreed on some of the details, such as the provisions of which country to provide supplies when fighting on the territory of the country.

After successfully establishing the Vienna Convention, Tang Wenjie returned to Suez again, and Franz couldn't wait to announce the military defense treaty of the Vienna Convention.

In Paris, Henry threw an Austrian newspaper on the ground and stomped hard.

After the end of the French Civil War, Henry successfully took over France and achieved his goal of becoming emperor of France.

But he did not expect that the first war after his official coronation would face the constraints of the Empire.

Your Majesty, the Chinese Empire has gone too far. During the French Civil War, they captured all of France's colonies, which caused great losses to France. We must make serious representations about this.

Henry nodded. He didn't tell anyone about his dirty dealings with the empire. Now all the French believe that the empire took advantage of the opportunity to get into trouble.

That's why the Empire was spurned so quickly after France's popularity.

Any power that stops the French will be destroyed, the British before, and now Prussia and Austria. If the Empire tries to intervene in this just war against Austria, our soldiers will make them pay in blood. Henri High shouted.

The Louvre is filled with new nobles who benefited from the civil war and who are now very fanatical about war because it is the war that has made them lucrative.

In Europe, Austria has the largest land area, but Austria, which is lagging behind in firearms, is obviously unable to maintain its own territory, which is naturally a piece of natural fat in the eyes of the nobles.

Victory in the Civil War, combined with victories in the Prussian and Austrian wars, made Henry somewhat arrogant.

For him, there is now no enemy that France cannot defeat.

...

Konigsberg.

Ferrer II also received news from Austria.

Vienna Convention Organization? Ferrier II smiled disdainfully, Does Austria think that a newspaper can scare us?

Perhaps this is a lie at all, said one of the generals. Could the Empire fight us for an Austrian? If France and we are fully recruited, the two countries will be able to send at least 800,000 troops to attack Austria, based on their strength in the Mediterranean. Can ten thousand people stop us?

Impossible! Ferrier II was very confident. This war with France fully proved the superiority of their percussion guns on the battlefield. Although they suffered 30,000 casualties, Henry killed more soldiers.

Therefore, he firmly believes that Prussia's current military strength is enough to fear no country in the main battlefield of Europe. As for the warships rampant at sea, he does not care. Prussia is a land power, and there is no need to fight against the empire on the sea.

After thinking for a long time, he decided to ignore the so-called treaty signed by the empire and Austria, and even wanted to test the strength of the empire on the battlefield.

...

In Vienna, Franz received news of Prussia's southward march and France's eastward advance shortly after the news of the Convention was published in the newspapers.

The actions of the two countries have proved their choice, and Franz is now a little fortunate that he signed this treaty, because the two countries are determined to annex Prussia.

Abandoning illusions, Franz began to call for help in the city of Suez, now only the Empire could stop the expansion of France and Prussia in Europe.

After the news of the call for help was passed, Franz fell into an anxious wait, but only ten days later, a battleship full of imperial soldiers appeared in the port of Venice.

Upon hearing this news, Frats was ecstatic, and it turned out that the Vienna Convention was not just a piece of paper from the Empire.

The Empire is demonstrating its respect for this agreement with practical actions.
