Chapter 337

This time, the French Empire launched an invasion of the Kingdom of Siam. In fact, in European history, this is a very common thing, especially at high levels.

But the low-level people don't think so. Wars are initiated by the high-level people, and the low-level people are guided by public opinion and bound by the righteousness of the country. They finally achieved a sense of pride.

Therefore, when William IV understood this principle, he chose to use the newspaper to enlarge the Siam Kingdom in the invasion of the French Empire in the Siam Kingdom, which caused social unrest, the killing of civilians, the cold invasion of the French Empire, and the The combination of the ambitions of the French Empire and the damage to the interests of various countries finally compiled the mentality of hatred of the law in various countries.

The anger at the bottom eventually rose to the upper level, so under the pressure, the top leaders of various countries could only join the Dutch team. Let the ropes prepared by the Netherlands wrap around their necks, give the other end to the Netherlands, and be remotely controlled by the Netherlands to the French Empire. Initiate sanctions.

Easier said than done.

Anyway, this is the result of many calculations by William IV.

And the several major organizations that were originally founded are even more powerful on it.

In a word, the French Empire this time was an indirect confrontation before the Franco-Prussian War launched by the Netherlands in the future in Prussia. Although it did not directly crush the French Empire led by Napoleon III in the future as Bismarck and William I led Prussia, it also created Now, Holland Jin has forcibly opened the door to the clubs of European powerhouses and squeezed in. Although there are still some inappropriate names, they have already entered, haven't they?

As for the future, if you want the Netherlands not to be kicked out, you will have to rely on hard power to see the truth.

But William IV put his hope in the development of the Far East. As long as it develops there, these big powers must recognize the status of the Netherlands even if they do not recognize it.

The French Empire launched a war to invade the Kingdom of Siam. In fact, France also launched a public opinion war. Its characteristics and effects are worth commenting on by William IV.

At the beginning of the war, the French Empire kept training troops between the Kingdom of Siam and the border of South Vietnam, a colony in the Far East of the French Empire. The public opinion before the war seemed not to be very high.

At that time, the civil war in North America and the participation of the United Kingdom were far from comparable to the Far East, let alone the wars in the Balkans, Russia and other countries. This also made it difficult for the international community and the people of the French Empire to judge the true intentions of Napoleon III.

Many people think that Napoleon III just saw the rapid expansion of the Netherlands and Britain in the Far East, so he hastily declared his presence.

It now seems that Napoleon III was underprepared before the war, and part of the misjudgment of the entire strategic form during the period, that is, he believed that he was in a position to win, that once the French imperial army advanced, and the countries focused their energy on the European and American continents, there was no time to do so. While he was taking care of it, he suddenly made a surprise attack, creating a fait accompli in one fell swoop, so that the UK and the Netherlands and other countries could not stop it and complete the established task.

But he never expected that the Kingdom of Siam was not knocked down by a single blow, and there would be no pigs. The fierce and effective resistance and wars, coupled with the previous wars of the French Empire in history, would be supported by the proud French. , So this time Napoleon III also thought that Discord had done much pre-war public opinion preparation.

It was not until before the war that Napoleon III of the French Empire issued a statement and made a random excuse to say that the Kingdom of Siam threatened the security rule of South Vietnam, so the French Empire needed to send troops in order to demilitarize the Kingdom of Siam and no longer have the ability to threaten the French Empire. rule in South Vietnam.

Although the French Empire initially took a few cities in the east by surprise, the others encountered strong resistance. The French Empire suffered even more.

Thousands of lives were left in the Far East forever.

This made the French Empire an object of ridicule in the international community, and its image changed from being tall to an ugly duckling.

William IV analyzed the words of Napoleon III: the invasion of the sovereign kingdom of Siam was decorated as "the threat of French rule in South Vietnam by the kingdom of Siam".

France therefore needed to wage war to relieve this threat from the Siamese kingdom, and to make France at ease.

This reason is not even believed by a 3-year-old child. After all, an 18-year-old adult said that he was threatened by a 5-year-old child, and everyone would find it inconceivable.

The French Empire could not produce concrete evidence that the Kingdom of Siam had invaded them.

This approach has touched the definition of threats in countries around the world, which makes the rulers of various countries very dissatisfied.

In addition, the people of various countries were annoyed by the brutal and ruthless killing of civilians by the French Empire's invasion, so they also participated in the anti-French operation.

Therefore, after the outbreak of war between France and the Kingdom of Siam, it is understandable that the newspapers of various countries began to oppose the French invasion almost uniformly.

Although the French Empire later reacted and wanted to let the newspapers of various countries help its official propaganda to help improve its image.

But at this time, how could William IV do what he wanted? Therefore, the Dutch government ordered the prohibition of official propaganda of the French Empire in the Netherlands. Other countries followed suit and participated in this move launched by the Netherlands. , making the image of the French Empire plummeted.

As for the international exchanges, the French Empire offended the massacre of civilians in the Kingdom of Siam, although the French Empire denied it, and in turn accused the members of the International Court of Justice in The Hague of the Netherlands and the United Kingdom and other countries.

France also quibble about itself and played word games, arbitrarily controlling quality control everywhere, and rhetoric. Unfortunately, there is no evidence and facts to support the accusation. In addition, various countries have blocked France's debate channels~www.mtlnovel.com~, making them more and more muddled. High-level officials and people of various countries are even more disgusted.

At this point, William IV knew that the overall situation was set, and the French Empire could not escape the trap he set.

In the history of letting go, the French Empire and Germany are the most tragic empires in history. Every time they want to truly rise, they are defeated by the United Kingdom and the Tsarist Empire. This is the case with Napoleon III, William II in World War I and World War II. The same is true for the moustache.

The historical epitome of the Austrian Empire is the future of the two countries. Therefore, the power of the 19th century and the first half of the 20th century was only a flash in the pan. By the second half of the 20th century, they had actually become the followers of the two superpowers. , and by the beginning of the 21st century, it has become a so-called first-class power beyond the two and a half superpowers.

Until William IV passed through, the so-called European Troika was surpassed and approached by several other emerging powers, and the status of the first-class powers was in jeopardy.

It is because of this familiarity that Wilhelm's Dutch migration to the Far East is so firm.

"Without the Far East, the Netherlands can't survive in Europe like Britain, France, Germany, or even Sweden and Spain. The Far East, as the land of prosperity for the Netherlands, is imperative."
