Chapter 83: Bo Lin Peace Talks!!

The Russian Empire and the Austro-Hungarian Empire, although still in the war.

However, from the beginning, neither side really declared war on the other.

It’s just that it’s de facto at war.

Under the threat and oppression of the Germanic Empire, the Russian army stopped its offensive and put its main offensive on the side of the Ottoman Empire.

And Austria-Hungary also began to lick its wounds. Although they re-sent a large number of troops to assemble on the front line.

However, many of these recruits have not even been able to complete their training.

How much combat power can be possessed, it is natural to imagine.

Therefore, even the main forces of the Russian Imperial Army were engaged in the attack on the Ottoman Empire.

Austria-Hungary had no intention of attacking and regaining its field.

I am afraid that if the counterattack fails, it will be defeated by the Russian Empire again.

Then, the consequences are very dangerous.

At the same time, it will be slapped in the face again.

Especially when Austria-Hungary learned that the Russian Imperial Army had easily defeated the Ottoman Empire in the Balkans, it was very tight.

Once the Ottoman Empire was also defeated.

Then, the Russian Empire can draw more 060 troops to deal with them at any time.

This made little tension throughout Austria-Hungary.

Austrian Emperor Franz Joseph I hoped to end this damn war with the Russian Empire at an early date.

Of course, Austria-Hungary suffered heavy losses on the battlefield, and even Archduke Ferdinand was captured by the Russian Empire.

For the Russian Empire, Franz Joseph I naturally hated it to death.

If he could, of course he would want to defeat the Russian Empire.

However, use that for later.

Now they must find a way to end this war as soon as possible before they can quickly stabilize the situation in the country.

Then lie down and try your luck and revive your armaments.

In the future, if the time is ripe, it will be a shame to go to war with the Russian Empire again.

Austro-Hungarian, Vijena, Royal Palace.

Baron Berhidold, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Empire, is about to take a train to Berin to hold peace talks with Izvorsky, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Empire.

Before leaving, Baron Bergiddold asked Austrian Emperor Franz Joseph I for advice on the bottom line of the negotiations.

“Your Majesty, the Russians are already on their way. It was expected that I would arrive in Bolin in two or three days, and I had to leave immediately. ”

Baron Bergirdor said.

“Your Excellency, this time it will be hard for you. However, I hope that you can protect the interests of the empire as much as possible in the negotiations. The Germans will be on our side and put pressure on the Russians. ”

Franz Joseph I said.

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

Baron Bergirdold nodded.

However, they are all well aware of being losers on the battlefield.

What was lost on the battlefield, they want to get back at the negotiating table, it is undoubtedly very difficult.

Even with the support of the Germanic people, this is also true.

After all, iron needs to be hard!

“The Russians have occupied large areas of our territory, and the Russians must be allowed to withdraw from these territories. In addition, we have a large number of troops captured by the Russians and need to be rescued, including His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. ”

Franz Joseph I continued.

“Yes, Your Majesty. However, the Russians will certainly take the opportunity to put forward some harsh conditions. Even if the Germans were on our side, it would not have been possible for the Russians to abandon those conditions altogether. After all, our gate failed in occupying the battlefield. ”

Baron Bergido you de reminds the head.

Since ancient times, the loser has ceded land and paid compensation, which is a matter of course and custom.

This was true even if Austria-Hungary was supported by the Germanic Empire.

Franz Joseph I thought for a moment and then said: “We must not lose land. War reparations are even more impossible. We and the Russians did not declare war. This war can even be said to be a conflict. It’s just that the scale of the conflict is slightly larger. Of course, we can pay a sum of reparations to the Russians. ”

Even at this time, Franz Joseph I wanted to save face for himself and Austria-Hungary and did not want to admit defeat.

Otherwise, it would have dealt a heavy blow to the prestige of Franz Joseph I and Austria-Hungary.

As a result, it would seriously affect the internal stability of Austria-Hungary.

“Yes, Your Majesty, I see!”

Baron Bergirdor nodded repeatedly.

“Also, you need to speed up the progress and not let the peace talks drag on too long.

The Russians, on the Balkans, are rapidly gaining victory. The Ottomans, having been completely defeated, are about to be unable to hold on. Once the Russians have won the war completely, then they have more room to turn around.

That would be even more disadvantageous for us. ”

Franz Joseph I said.

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

Baron Bergidotus replied.

Undoubtedly, this trip to Bolin to participate in peace talks was undoubtedly a shame for the diplomats of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

But what can they do?

And who let their country lose the battle on the battlefield?

In such a situation, naturally only let them clean up the mess.

Later, Baron Bergiddold and other diplomats took a special train from Viena to Paulin.

Both the Germanic and Austro-Hungarian railways were well developed, and the railways were connected.

Therefore, Baron Bersidord left much later than the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Empire, Izvorsky.

However, he still arrived in Bolin before Izvolsky.

Upon arrival in Berlin, Baron Berchedold met with Germanic Prime Minister Schillingsfister and Foreign Minister Bernhard von Bilow in the hope of gaining their support.

The Germans, of course, said that they would stand behind them and put pressure on the Russians.

After all, they are allies.

At the same time, the Germanic Empire naturally did not want to see the rise of the Tsarist Empire and wanted to curb the Sand Empire’s submission.

The next day, the Russian Foreign Minister Izvorsky also rushed to Bailin to rest for a night, and negotiations between the two sides began.

Bernhard von Bilow, the foreign minister of the Germanic Empire, presided over the peace talks.

And Baron Bersidold and Izvorsky, representing Austria-Hungary and the Russian Empire, respectively, attended this peace negotiation…
