Napoleon II Reborn Chapter 140

"Maybe we shouldn't come here to negotiate with the French at all." After Xiao Jie and his party left, Alexander said angrily. For the first time, he felt ignored for the first time. Xiao Jie actually dared to leave without saying a word, which was completely disrespectful to him. Arrogant, arrogant. This is Alexander's evaluation of Xiao Jie. But at the same time, he had to admit that Xiao Jie did have the capital of arrogance. The majestic Russian Empire was forced to beg for mercy by an army led by a child. Has Russia really fallen? Is the Romanov dynasty really about to perish? Has God really abandoned us pious people? Otherwise, why would they treat us like this.

Friedrich William III also had a sad expression on his face. The conditions given by France were too harsh, so harsh that it was unacceptable. But what if you don't accept it? Does Prussia still have the strength to resist? Now there is only one legion in the French army that continues to attack the remaining land of Prussia. This has made Friedrich William III feel that he can't hold on anymore. If there is another legion or two legions, then Prussia will really die. up. Helpless, deeply helpless. Maybe I wasn't so impulsive at the time, and if I didn't declare war on France, I wouldn't be in this situation today. Friedrich Wilhelm III often blamed himself like this.

"I think we don't have to make a decision so early, maybe there is still room for reversion, and what is written in the peace agreement is not necessarily the bottom line of the French." Makovsky said.

Everyone also knows this truth. But the conditions offered by France are really scary. It can be seen from this that France's bottom line must also be frighteningly high.

"Yes, I think we should first figure out what the bottom line of France is before making a decision." Friedrich William III also echoed. He now only hopes that France's bottom line will be lower than what was written in the peace treaty. As for how low it is, he doesn't know, of course, the lower the better.

"But I'm afraid it's not easy to know the bottom line of France?" Alexander asked suspiciously. Although he is unwilling to accept the peace treaty with France, he also knows that Russia has no power to confront France now. If France's demands are not excessive, he is still willing to accept the peace treaty and stop the war. After all, the war is already taking place on Russian soil, and he won't feel bad if France is destroyed. In the end, it's only himself who suffers. As for revenge against France, we can only make plans after Russia re-emerges in the future.

"It is estimated that France will not really want to continue fighting with us. According to the information we have learned, after six months of war, France's already recovering economy has begun to deteriorate further. If it were not for France in the war If they win, it is estimated that the French economy has already collapsed. I think France has proposed such a high compensation to us just to restore the domestic economy. That's why they want to end this negotiation as soon as possible. After all, every France's economy will deteriorate one day later. France cannot afford to lose after a long time." Claude analyzed accurately through intelligence from France. At this time, the French economy was really bad to a very serious level. Since the French Revolution, it can be said that France has been in a war for years, and the economy has not been cultivated. Instead, it has to maintain a high war consumption. Over the years, the French economy has faced collapse several times. But at the last moment, France can always win on the battlefield and receive a large amount of compensation to restore the economy, which prevents the French economy from collapsing.

"Yes, if France refuses to lower its demands, then we will drag it on, preferably until the French economy collapses. At that time, let's see what else they can do to attack us." Alexander said viciously. Although Russia's economy is also very bad now, he can't care so much anymore. If the French economy collapses, they will no longer be able to launch an attack on Russia. By that time, not to mention defeating France, but keeping the draw possible.

"Okay, the matter is decided like this. Makovsky and Claude can see if you can get to the bottom line of France. If their demands are really too high for us to accept, then I will keep dragging on. At worst, everyone will fight to the death." Alexander said with a fierce light in his eyes.

Friedrich William III did not have any objection to this and obeyed Alexander's arrangement. After the discussion, the two parties left separately.

"Honey, what's the matter with you? Is there any problem in the negotiation?" Queen Louisa of Prussia couldn't help asking after seeing Friedrich William III returning listlessly.

"Oh!" Friedrich William III sighed a long time. Then Louisa was told what had happened in the negotiations and the peace proposed by France.

After listening to Friedrich William III's narration, Louisa was also very surprised, and she did not expect that France's requirements would be so harsh this time. I remember that after France defeated Austria last time, it only cost tens of millions of francs, but now it directly asks Prussia for 600 million francs, and it will also occupy Prussia's most developed industrial area and split Prussia. It is estimated that no country will accept such harsh conditions.

"Are we really planning to drag the negotiations with Russia if France's demands cannot be lowered?" Louisa asked with some concern.

"What else can I do? I can't agree to France's request. If this is the case, Prussia is not far from being destroyed." Friedrich William III said with a sigh. At this moment, he has long since lost the arrogance he had when he declared war on France. Now all that remains is the decadence of failure, the desolation. If he had known that he would fail, and that the outcome would be like this, I am afraid that he would not have dared to declare war on France anyway. But there is no regret medicine in the world, he must bear the price for his original decision.

"William, but have you ever thought about it? Our country is not comparable to Russia. Russia has a vast territory, which they can afford to consume with France. What about us? The area I control now is only a small part of the north. If France sees through our intentions If so, do you think we can stop the attack of the French army? Now there is only one legion in France still in Prussia, which already makes it very difficult for us to deal with it. What if there are two more? Can we still handle it?" Louis Sarah reminded. Prussia is not Russia. Russia can fight France to the death, but what about Prussia? If you fight recklessly, there is only death.

"So what if it's not like this? Are you going to give in to that dwarf? Why don't you just kill me if you want me to sign such a harsh peace treaty?" Friedrich William III roared loudly. You must know that he is also very depressed now. The glory of Prussia is about to be buried in his hands. How does this make him face the tens of millions of Prussian people and the ancestors of the William family.

"He's mad at himself." Louisa couldn't believe it. Since she and Friedrich William III have been married for more than ten years, Friedrich William III has never been obedient to him. And this time, she was just reminding him kindly, but he actually treated her like this. This made her really unacceptable, and her eyes turned red all of a sudden.

Friedrich William III gave Louisa a complicated look, and left with a long sigh. He loves his queen very much. Although this queen is 20 years younger than him. But besides the first queen he died, Louisa was his favorite. Although Luisa was a little vain, and a lot of little problems of this and that kind, he could live with them. Even declaring war on France this time, he made the final decision only after listening to Louisa's suggestion. When England approached him, he hesitated all the time, but in the end when the wind blew on Louisa's pillow, he made a decision in a daze.

Luisa looked at the lonely back of Friedrich William III, and felt very uncomfortable. She also knew that without her suggestion, Friedrich William III would not have easily agreed to join forces with Britain and Russia. Allied. Although it will be threatened by France at that time, it will definitely not be like it is now, almost to the point of being wiped out. Since Berlin was captured and she fled to the north of Prussia with Friedrich William III, she fell into a deep self-blame.

"No, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com I must help William get through this difficult time." Luisa thought secretly. But is this easy to talk about? 600 million francs is almost the annual gross national income of Prussia. She doesn't have that much money, and the wealth of the entire Prussian royal family may not add up that much. Even if the money problem can be solved, how can the land problem be solved? Louisa thought deeply.

Although she is not benzene, nor is she a vase with **** and no brains, thinking about this thing has been rarely used since she became a queen, so she thought for a long time but couldn't figure out a way. "By the way, I can bribe Andresi, the Crown Prince of France. I heard that the general is in charge of all the affairs of this negotiation. If he agrees to help, then things will be much easier. What can be used to bribe him? Money This may not work, it seems that the little guy has a group of his own. Rights? This is even more unworkable, as the crown prince of France, the future emperor of France, who has more power than him in the world? Beauty? By the way, it's beauty." Luisa cheered up. She knew exactly what happened to Xiao Jie in Poland. Although it was carried out very secretly, Prussia also had countless intelligence personnel in Poland. So Luisa is also very clear about Xiao Jie's persecution of Mary. So Xiao Jie was directly equated with a satyr.
