(Chapter to!)
After a fierce quarrel, a final agreement was finally reached late that night between Russia, Austria, Great Britain, and Prussia. According to the agreement, France's reparations were divided into five parts, which were paid to Russia, Austria, Britain, Prussia and the Rhine Confederation. Among them, Russia got 300 million, Britain got 250 million, Austria got 200 million, and Prussia got Alsace and Lorraine, so it only got 150 million in reparations. The remaining 100 million was paid to the Rhine League. Among them, the Kingdom of Bavaria received 30 million francs, the Kingdom of Saxony received 25 million francs, the Kingdom of Thuringia received 20 million francs, and the remaining 25 million francs belonged to the small countries in the Rhine League.
The several countries that have received the benefits they deserve are very satisfied. Although the losses paid by the war are huge, the benefits they have obtained are also considerable. Maybe the benefit they get is less than the cost of the war, but they eliminated the opponent that they feared, and this is the biggest benefit they got.
With the last representative, the King of Thuringia, signing his name on the treaty, the spoils of the Anti-French League came to an end. The purpose of their coming to Paris was basically accomplished.
"Everyone, while everyone is here, I propose that we discuss a problem. That is, although the brutal Napoleon was defeated by us, but everyone must not forget that there is another member of the Bonaparte family that is more terrifying than Napoleon." Andresi, his Iberia will also become our confidant, and I hope everyone can come up with a solution to solve this problem." The British Prime Minister, the Earl of Liverpool, held a glass of wine and looked at the excited monarchs and ministers Said.
"Why is it so troublesome? Wouldn't it be enough to just defeat him?" The army commander of the Kingdom of Saxony said with a flushed face. It could be seen that he drank a lot of wine.
"Idiot!" Kutuzov yelled. If I could win the fight, I would have fought it long ago, and I still need you to talk too much.
The commander-in-chief of the Saxon army was a little confused, but he still heard someone scolding him, and was about to get angry when he saw that the man was Kutuzov, and he realized that this was Paris, not a place where he could do his best. The Kingdom of Saxony just pouted, and sat down on the seat resentfully, not saying anything, drinking wine in big glasses, as if the wine was his life and death enemy.
"Are we still going to continue fighting? The war that just ended has caused heavy losses to all countries, and I'm afraid they won't be able to fight another large-scale war." Clausewitz, chief of the Prussian General Staff, said worriedly. Leaving aside other countries, as far as Prussia is concerned, it has not been able to carry out large-scale wars for a long time.
Alexander agrees with Clausewitz. Now that the war in Europe is finally over, he has to get away to deal with the Turkish Empire and the Persian Empire? Naturally, I don't have the energy to deal with another war.
"Hehe. I didn't say that the war is about to start, and we, the UK, need time to recover. What I mean is how should we treat Iberia after the strength of all countries is restored." The earl of Liverpool said with a smile.
"Does it need to be said? Naturally, Iberia was rescued from the rule of the Bonaparte family. Don't look, we just rescued the Spanish royal family from Fontainebleau some time ago. Damn Napoleon, actually The royal family of a country has been imprisoned privately for so long. The Portuguese royal family is still in exile in Brazil. We should take on the responsibility of overthrowing the evil rule of the Bonaparte family and bringing Europe back to peace." King Friedrich William of Prussia Third said loudly.
Later, Emperor Francis I of Austria also expressed the same view, that is, only when the rule of the Bonaparte family is completely overthrown can Europe get real peace.
Alexander frowned. He knew from Kutuzov how powerful the Iberian army was. If there was a full-scale war with Iberia, all countries would suffer huge losses, and perhaps be defeated by Iberia. Russia is in the eastern part of Europe, and Moscow is 3,000 kilometers away from Madrid. No matter how powerful Iberia is, it is difficult to threaten Russia, so he is unwilling to offend this emerging power. But the other countries agreed, and it would be very detrimental to Russia if he didn't make a statement, so Alexander had no choice but to nod in agreement.
Seeing that the Earl of Liverpool was so well prepared, everyone felt fooled. Alexander also secretly cursed the old fox. But it has already been agreed, and there is no way to go back on it. Everyone still obediently signed the peace agreement.
"In addition, there is another problem that needs to be resolved urgently, that is, how do we guard against Iberia. Not to mention northern France, we must deploy heavy troops here to protect the safety of our friend King Louis' country. In addition , in the east, it is bound to be Iberia's entry into Central and Eastern Europe, and our allies on this channel - the Rhine Alliance, I doubt that they have the strength to stop Iberia, so I think their strength must be obtained Strengthen. The only way is to end the current division of the Rhineland League and form one or several powerful countries. In that case, Iberia's eastward path will be completely blocked by us." The Earl of Liverpool said calmly.
However, his words brought a huge shock. Especially small countries such as Bavaria have cast grateful glances at him. Everyone already understood what the Earl of Liverpool meant, which was to support the three countries in unifying the Rhineland League. same. Prussia and Austria, which are next to the Rhineland League, also made small calculations, and they also hoped to get some benefits in the process.
What followed was another inevitable quarrel, and it was not until dawn that a final agreement was reached. Prussia expanded its territory to the south, Austria also gained several city-states, and the remaining territory was divided among the Kingdoms of Bavaria, Saxony, and Thuringia.
At 7 o'clock in the morning, these monarchs and ministers walked out of the meeting room with dark circles under their eyes. Although their faces were tired, their eyes were shining with excitement. It could be seen that everyone's harvest was very good.
Since the representatives of the Anti-French Coalition stayed overnight, the peace talks originally scheduled for the 11th were canceled and postponed until the 12th.
At 10 o'clock in the morning on the 12th, the peace talks started again. After a day's rest, the faces of the monarchs and ministers were much better. The last topic of the peace talks was the restoration of the Bourbon royal family. There is nothing to say about this, the restoration of the Bourbon royal family supported by the Anti-French Alliance is irreversible. The only thing worth negotiating is the number of troops stationed by the Anti-French Alliance in northern France and the Iberian troops stationed in southern France.
After another quarrel, it was finally determined that the Anti-French Alliance would station 200,000 troops in northern France, which would be dispatched by the countries of the Anti-French Alliance, and all the expenses of the garrison would be paid by the Bourbon royal family. On the Iberian side, only one legion can be deployed in central France, and the other legion must be deployed to southern France. After persistence, Xiao Jie finally succeeded in deploying the 88th Army in central France. He believed that it should be very easy for the 88th Army to defeat the 200,000 anti-French coalition forces.
Finally, Louis XVIII announced that a restoration ceremony would be held half a month later to rebuild the Kingdom of France, and the monarchs of all countries were invited to stay and watch the ceremony. It’s not difficult to read the book. His decision was very sudden. After all, the establishment of a country is a major event, and it takes half a month to prepare well anyway. Louis XVIII was so anxious because he hoped that the monarchs of various countries could participate in the wave. It's just the restoration ceremony of the Pang Dynasty.
As for the invitation of Louis XVIII, the monarchs of all countries accepted, except Xiao Jie. He felt disgusted when he saw that big fat pig of Louis XVIII. Besides, he had already been thinking about northern France, so how could he be willing to participate in the restoration of the Bourbon royal family?
"By the way~www.mtlnovel.com~His Royal Highness Andresi, you now control the central and southern parts of France. I am afraid it would not be appropriate to call it Iberia. I wonder if you have thought about re-establishing a country. ?” Alexander asked with a smile. Hearing this question from him, all the people turned their attention here to see how Xiao Jie would answer.
"Of course I have thought about it. I have already thought about the name of the country. There is no need to change it. It will still be called the French Empire. As for the capital, I haven't decided yet. I'm afraid it will take a while to establish the country." Xiao Jie said with a smile. In fact, he has already determined the capital, which is Paris. In other words, if you want to establish a country, you have to wait until he captures Paris.
After hearing Xiao Jie's answer, everyone was stunned. One French Kingdom and one French Empire. What's going on?
"You...!" Louis XVIII was very angry, he thought that Xiao Jie was against him on purpose.
Xiao Jie glanced at Louis XVIII provocatively, and then left with Ike and Gregor. He didn't pay attention to Louis XVIII, a stupid pig at all. Under the **** of the army, Xiao Jie left Paris that afternoon. After leaving the city, Xiao Jie looked back at the city where he had lived for a long time: "Just wait, I will come back soon."
