Chapter 710： Rather with allies, not nobles
"The Russian Empire needs to compensate the coalition forces for part of the military expenses consumed by this operation!" Varevsky then put forward the final conditions to Ambassador Gorchakov.
When he heard the conditions, Ambassador Gorchakov was completely in Bengbu. At this time, he had some doubts that the real purpose of France was to let them die!
"Minister Warevsky, we don't have much money at all now! Not to mention the compensation for your country's losses, even the money to return to St. Petersburg may not be able to be collected!" Ambassador Gorchakov smiled wryly at Warai. Fsky responded, "Our country has no ability to fulfill this condition of your country!"
"This is also under our consideration!" Varevsky said to Ambassador Gorchakov with a smile, "Your country only needs to lift the restrictions on French merchants alone and allow our merchants to set up business in your country. Factories, railway construction, commercial establishments...the tax generated by this can not only be used to pay compensation in advance, but your government can also save money! Isn't this killing two birds with one stone?"
After listening to Varevsky's speech, Ambassador Gorchakov showed a hesitant look on his face.
This method of Valevsky can certainly promote the financial direction of the Russian Empire in a short period of time, but in the long run, it will undoubtedly destroy the hematopoietic capacity of the Russian mainland.
Once the French Empire took control of the railways and mines in the Russian Empire, the Russian Empire's diplomacy would have to be influenced by France to a certain extent.
Unless Russia can pull down its face and directly forcibly confiscate the capital of the French Empire in the Russian Empire, otherwise, France only needs to move a little bit and the whole of Russia will face a turmoil.
[PS: This condition proposed by Jerome Bonaparte is the trick used by the French Republic against the Russian Empire in the original historical line, except that the French Republic injected capital into the Russian Empire, and France did not participate in the operation. 】
"Ambassador Gorchakov, what are you hesitating about?" Minister Varevsky urged Ambassador Gorchakov to make a decision as soon as possible, "Do you think that the efforts of the Russian Empire alone can lead to Is your country on the road to industrialization?
In the future, countries without industrialization are simply not qualified to go to the stage! "
Afterwards, Jerome Bonaparte also casually told Gorchakov that the Austrian Empire had borrowed about 500,000,000 to 600 million francs from the French Empire for their industrialization. Borrow money!
If the Russian Empire is willing to be left far behind by the Austrian Empire, then Jerome Bonaparte also has nothing to say.
The thought of the Austrian Empire's betrayal of the Russian Empire made Ambassador Gorchakov grit his teeth with hatred.
If there is a chance in the future, he will definitely make the Austrian Empire pay the price.
Now that the Austrian Empire has begun to industrialize, if the Russian Empire does not act, it may be difficult to defeat the Austrian Empire in the future.
After all, the fighting between the British and French armies in the Crimea was there for all to see.
"Okay! I promise you!" Ambassador Gorchakov nodded in response to Varevsky, and then added: "However, I wonder if your country can lend us some loans!
We who have lost St. Petersburg will not be able to win without your help!
If we face failure, then all the treaties we signed will be void! "
"Loan!" Minister Wallevsky turned his attention to Jerome Bonaparte, and he asked for Jerome Bonaparte's opinion.
"Tell me! How much do you need?" Jerome Bonaparte said to Minister Wallevsky.
"300 million francs!" Ambassador Gorchakov said directly.
"300 million francs?" Jerome Bonaparte showed a sneer at the corner of his mouth. "Are you going to give your army a major makeover? Or do you think we are taking advantage of us!"
"We can pay it back at 6 percent a year!" Ambassador Gorchakov tried to attract Jerome Bonaparte with high interest rates.
However, Jerome Bonaparte did not care about interest rates, and in his mind high interest rates were not as valuable as throwing the Russian Empire into a **** civil war.
300 million francs is a full year of military expenditure of 550,000 French Army and part of the Navy. With such a huge amount of money, the Russian Empire can completely defeat the St. Petersburg regime in a short period of time.
In this case, the idea of Jerome Bonaparte continuing to bleed Russia will become empty talk!
"Impossible!" Jerome Bonaparte said firmly to Ambassador Gorchakov: "We can lend you a maximum of 100 million francs at an annual interest rate of 4.5%!"
"Okay!" Ambassador Gorchakov readily agreed to Jerome Bonaparte's conditions.
He had never asked for a loan of 300 million francs, and it was a pleasant surprise that Jerome Bonaparte could agree to them 100 million francs.
The soldiers of the Russian Empire are different from those of the French Empire. A little squeeze can still make up an army of 300,000-400,000.
With this army, they were able to fight each other with the rebels in St. Petersburg.
(Duke Golitsyn already has nearly 20w of the Finnish Army and about 10w of the Petersburg Army, which adds up to about 30w.)
"By the way, we also hope to use this money to purchase a batch of the rifles you are using now!" Ambassador Gorchakov then said to Jerome Bonaparte.
"Yes!" Jerome Bonaparte also readily agreed to Gorchakov's conditions.
Ambassador Gorchakov was a little surprised that Jerome Bonaparte could so easily agree.
"Fairy Wood"
At this moment, he did not know that Duke Golitsyn, who was far away in Petersburg, also sent batches of gold sealed in small Russian vaults to France in exchange for the Mignet rifles and production lines in the hands of France.
It won't be long before they see two Russians firing at each other absolutely simultaneously!
"By the way, we also have a rifle production line and a bullet production line in Rhode Island. I wonder if you are interested!" Jerome Bonaparte asked Ambassador Gorchakov.
"Yes! Of course there is!" Ambassador Gorchakov nodded hastily in response.
"That's good! I will give it to you after the war is over!" Jerome Bonaparte responded to Ambassador Gorchakov.
Immediately afterwards, Jerome Bonaparte handed over the stage to Wallevsky and Gorchakov.
"Your Excellency Ambassador, these are all our conditions! If you agree, then we have reached an agreement!" Warevsky ordered his entourage to hand over the documents to Ambassador Gorchakov.
"Can I pass this document to the crown prince for a look!" Ambassador Gorchakov responded to Ambassador Varevsky.
Although it is said that he has been given the right to represent Russia with full authority by the crown prince, the conditions put forward by France really make him a little afraid to make decisions alone!
After all, in the document they want to cede Crimea, Finland, Poland, and compensate France for the economic losses!
"Of course!" Varevsky nodded to Ambassador Gorchakov: "However, we hope you can give us an answer as soon as possible!"
"Definitely! Definitely!" Ambassador Gorchakov said to Varevsky.
After the negotiation, Ambassador Gorchakov said goodbye to Jerome Bonaparte!
Jerome Bonaparte and Wallevsky warmly bid farewell to Gorchakov, the "traitor".
"Walevsky, do you think they will agree to our terms?"
"Your Majesty, I don't think they have any choice at all!"
…
Ambassador Gorchakov, who returned to Simferopol, handed over the document to Alexander II as soon as possible. After reading the conditions, Alexander II also felt dizzy!
"That guy Jerome Bonaparte, it's better to destroy us!" Alexander II said in a self-sacrificing sentence, "If these conditions are signed, they will be regarded as traitors of the entire Russian Empire!"
"I heard that the traitor Golitsyn also signed a similar treaty with us!" Ambassador Gorchakov quickly relieved. UU reading www. uukanshu.com
In fact, he knew in his heart that Duke Golitsyn's treaty would not be as traitorous as theirs.
Now they can say that there is no other way than betraying the country.
And Golitsyn's new government has more mediation possibilities!
"You said, should we sign!" Alexander II turned to Commander Gorchakov and Count Orlov.
"Sign it! Your Highness!" Commander Gorchakov said immediately, "In their (France) hearts, we still have this value!
If we are not willing to sign, then they are likely to abandon us!
By then, our situation will only get worse! "
"Your Majesty, I agree too!" Count Orlov also said to him.
The support of the Gorchakov brothers and Orlov made Alexander II make up his mind, and he ordered Ambassador Gorchakov to implement it as soon as possible!
Early the next morning, Ambassador Gorchakov went to Bakhchisaray early, and he told Jerome Bonaparte that he was willing to sign this treaty on behalf of Crown Prince Alexander.
However, he hopes that the French Empire can uphold the idea of helping people to the end, and let the Caucasian Ottoman army not pursue them!
Gorchakov also hopes to use the influence of France to keep the Caucasus!
"I can promise you this!" Jerome Bonaparte said to Ambassador Gorchakov.
The Crimea Peninsula was exchanged for the Ottoman Empire as Jerome Bonaparte's compensation for the occupation of Rhodes!
The Caucasus region should still be handed over to the Russian Empire for management. His purpose was not to revive the Ottoman Empire.
When he heard the conditions, Ambassador Gorchakov was completely in Bengbu. At this time, he had some doubts that the real purpose of France was to let them die!
"Minister Warevsky, we don't have much money at all now! Not to mention the compensation for your country's losses, even the money to return to St. Petersburg may not be able to be collected!"
