v3 Chapter 493： Does the Philippines have a secret?
On February 8, 1869, the British Empire's foreign secretary, Russell, believed that the defense white paper issued by Spain two days ago "seriously violated the basic norms of international relations and the spirit of peace between the United Kingdom and Spain for many years." The British Empire expressed strong dissatisfaction and firmness. be opposed to.
The British "London Times" commented that the release of the 1869 White Paper coincided with the bad relationship between the French Empire and Spain, and the relationship with the United Kingdom was not friendly. The Spanish government hopes that by emphasizing the international situation related to the war between France and the Kingdom of Siam and the surrounding military threats, the government of the ruling Prime Minister Ramon Narvaez's cabinet will increase military spending and greatly increase defense spending.
The newspaper emphasized that the Spanish defense white paper emphasized the escalation of threats from Britain, France and the Far East as an excuse to obtain approval for a sharp increase in military spending and to increase defense spending.
Queen Victoria frowned at Prince Edward's analysis report and said dissatisfiedly: "That is to say, Spain's current dissatisfaction with the United Kingdom is obviously unhappy with the British control of Gibraltar."
Prince Edward embarrassedly said: "It does seem to be the case at the moment"
Queen Victoria: "If this is the case, from 1704 to the present 165 years ago, Spain would not dare to use this in the defense white paper to oppose the British, but chose this time?"
Prince Edward was even more embarrassed.
Queen Victoria said angrily: "If you govern with your analysis, it will be inevitable for the British Empire to enter a period of decline. Come back and give me a new analysis report. Go back."
Edward's face changed, and the Queen's intention was obvious. It was to drive him out, which meant that he did not want him to listen to the conversation between Prime Minister Disraeli and Foreign Secretary Russell. This was to drive him out of the core team of governing the country.
Just as he was about to speak, Disraeli shook his head at him, meaning to tell him not to fight hard against Queen Victoria and try his best to protect and please.
Originally, he was very afraid of this powerful mother in front of him, but now Disraeli's reminder gave him a good step down, and then left.
After Prince Edward left the waiter and closed the door, Disraeli said with a wry smile, "Your Majesty's treatment of His Royal Highness seems a bit too much."
Queen Victoria said, "As a qualified king, you must have a clear mind at all times to deal with everything, and Edward, at present, seems to be far from qualified, and even the crown prince is barely able to do it. Prime Minister I understand what it means, but the situation facing the British Empire is very dangerous and Edward is not yet competent enough to overcome these huge waves."
Disraeli disagreed: "But there should be some opportunities for exercise. William IV ruled the Kingdom of the Netherlands at the age of 21 in December 1861, and Louis I, born in 1838, was also born in November 1861 at the age of 23. Prince Edward, who is a month older than William IV, is already 28 years old and is still doing his homework, which seems to be of little use to him.”
Foreign Secretary Russell stared at Disraeli from the side with scrutiny eyes, thoughtful.
Disraeli has a close relationship with Prince Edward, which is known to the whole of the UK. At this time, he will help Prince Edward to fight for it. Whether it is successful or not, Disraeli will be able to obtain the recognition of Queen Victoria as the mother of Prince Edward. After all, no mother would like to see her son abandoned, even though Prince Edward was not welcomed by Queen Victoria. But whoever thinks that a mother doesn't love the son because of this is a big mistake.
Apparently, Disraeli understood this, so he prescribed the right medicine to improve the image of himself and the Tories in Queen Victoria's mind.
Queen Victoria was noncommittal and asked Foreign Secretary Russell: "What is the current reaction of the French Empire?"
The latter responded: "Olivier is currently following Napoleon III to criticize Spain's policy, but in general, the situation is still under control"
Queen Victoria sneered: "That is to say, His Majesty Yinsabel II was sure that Napoleon III and Olivier would not dare to make big moves, that's why they are so 'nonsense'"
"Almost" Russell sighed: "Since this General Ramon Narvaez became a confidant of Insabel II and became the new Prime Minister of Spain last year, Spain's external posture has become tough."
Queen Victoria asked Prime Minister Disraeli: "Has anyone been sent to check the details of this Prime Minister Ramon Narvaez?"
Disraeli: "Originally a Spanish conservative general, he had a bad relationship with the previous prime minister, so with the support of Yinsabel II the former prime minister was ousted and became the new prime minister. . As for the details."
Disraeli suddenly thought of something and said, "Many members of this General Ramon Narvaez's cabinet have stayed in the Philippines from the Far East. This is what MI-6 analyzed."
Colonial Philippines in the Far East?
Queen Victoria and Russell were both curious, and the Queen said with great interest: "Find out what happened there, I don't believe that so many Spanish elites will suddenly appear in Manila"
......
Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
William IV: "The wave of Yinsabel II really made Napoleon III dizzy, but the unpredictable disaster of England may make Spain be missed by the United Kingdom"
William IV frowned displeased.
The only people sitting across from him were Prime Minister Tolbeck and Foreign Minister Heisbet Von.
Both of them could hear His Majesty's anger.
William IV asks: 'Will the UK be aware that we are behind the scenes'
Hesbet Feng Wenyan said: "The British military intelligence-6 is very large, and the intelligence collection capability is very strong. In this regard, I am not self-defeating. Our two major intelligence organizations cannot compare with each other in a single word, so they still Hard to draw conclusions"
"It's like saying nothing for a long time." William IV glared at him and asked Tolbek: "The Netherlands in the Philippines should speed up the project to support Spain, where the Netherlands' influence over Spain is located, and it is also where the Netherlands will fill the gap in the Far East in the future. Here, as long as the Philippines is taken, even if the southern part of Mindanao is taken, and their hearts belong to the Netherlands, the Netherlands can use this to control Spain.”
William IV sneered: "At that time, Spain's status as a great power will depend on our mood to decide whether it is suitable or not."
The British "London Times" commented that the release of the 1869 White Paper coincided with the bad relationship between the French Empire and Spain, and the relationship with the United Kingdom was not friendly.
