"However, the British Empire could not fund an enemy. The Austrians had occupied Slovakia and Croatia and penetrated into other parts of Hungary. At this time, do you think Hungary can still become an equal existence with Austria? Stop dreaming!" William said loudly.

"Your Excellency is here today, which means a problem. The British Empire does not want our cooperation to collapse. We will never join the Allies under the current circumstances, because this is equivalent to suicide, but we can guarantee that the new Hungarian government will withdraw from the war and will fight against Austria for the territorial integrity of Hungary. Your country's purpose is to restrain the power of the allies, and sometimes tactful political confrontation can involve the energy of the opponent more than military confrontation."

At this time, the latter of Asia Oscar, who had never spoken, represented the bourgeois radicals in Hungarian society, who advocated the complete breaking of the old Hungarian system and establishing a political system similar to France. He once had a great conversation with William, but now, even though he has opposed joining the Allies.

The British regarded the Hungarians as cannon fodder, and the Hungarians were also very wary of the British, but what was unexpected was that the two sides did not hide their ideas this time, and to some extent, they were open and honest? As for why this situation occurred? The reason is very simple. Both sides have some places to seek each other, that is, everyone has a trump card!

The British were going to cause trouble. They finally chose the faction led by Caroli. It was not just because the two sides were closer in terms of "political tendencies". More importantly, the nobles led by Count Oberni refused to give up the results they had obtained in Romania! Although Hungary is now in chaos, and although the Austrian government has begun to attack the ethnic minority areas of Hungary. However, I don’t know what Austria thinks, the benefits Hungary gained from Romania are still retained by Vienna. In the eyes of the British, this may be a sweet date for Vienna.

This plan seems to be really effective. The nobles led by Count Obernie still seized part of Romanian territory at this time. With this alone, the British could not cooperate with Count Obernie. And the attitudes of Yasi, Oscar and others were more in line with the appetite of the British. They expressed their willingness to maintain the territory before the war with the Romanians, and they clearly proposed the tendency of independence. Even if the territory controlled by the Kingdom of Hungary is no longer comparable to before, the British believed that Hungary's independence would still have a heavy blow to the Allies at this time.

After compiling the pros and cons, the British chose to stand on Caroli and Yashi's side. How could the British, who were a mixture of merchants and pirates at heart, not take some precautions? So, the British also tampered with help to the Hungarians. They said they could recruit some "Alliance military personnel" to help Caroli and others, and many of these "Alliance military personnel" were the Romanians and Russians who were currently confronting the Transylvanian and Hungarian troops!

Whether it is Caroli or Yasi, it is really impossible to refuse this practice of putting poison in the pie, because they lack armed personnel! Especially the commanders who lack combat experience, it is not that the commanders who have no experience in the Hungarian army after participating in World War I are also countries with millions of troops mobilized. Although the main army has been broken, there are still some grassroots officers to find, but unfortunately, in this complex situation, most of the soldiers chose neutrality, and the main force of the remaining Hungarian troops is still fighting with the Romanian guerrillas in Transylvania.

Although Caroli and others expressed their willingness to return the territory obtained from Romania, they would never give up Transylvania! Earl of Oberni did not move the troops here, and Caroli and others also had no such plan or ability!

Therefore, buying some officers who had served in the army and some of the scraps of the army through a large amount of money became the top priority for Caroli and others to expand their military and prepare for war! However, in the current economic collapse and shortage of materials, even if there are some people in the army who tend to them, Caroli must use real money and silver, at least enough bread to buy these people and their troops! But unfortunately, Caroli and others are not even enough bread now, and they plan to play the tyrants to share the land to make up for the deficit. So, now, no matter what, Caroli and others realize that if they want to win, they must rely on those "foreign mercenaries" who are still considered enemies! This is also the biggest trump card of the British!

"I was very angry and surprised by your reply. At this critical moment, your country is still illusory about Vienna and Poland? We have provided you with a lot of help, and you cannot stand on our side when you are about to succeed." William said.

"I am sorry for this, but this is forced by the situation. Both us and you are like this. We cannot face the German blade. If your country has a better choice, you probably won't hand over the precious materials and equipment to us, right?" Caroli's seemingly tactful but tough reply showed his attitude. On this issue, his side has no way out!

"Your actions have reduced our trust between us to the extreme. In order to ensure the interests of the British Empire and its allies, we need to be reserved. Therefore, in special circumstances, we cannot guarantee that the ceasefire agreement in Transylvania can be perfectly implemented." William said regretfully.

Although William did feel very regretful, the result was still expected. After all, when the German and Austrian soldiers are in full swing, if the other party agrees to join the Allies immediately after taking power, it is unbelievable. Even the deductions made by the British army have come to such a conclusion. If Hungary really decides to join the Allies, then Austria and the Germans will kill Hungary for less than a week! After all, Hungary itself is on the verge of collapse, and it does not mean that a government can become stronger! Therefore, as long as a brained person controls Hungary, he will not confront the Allies head-on after controlling Hungary!
