War Palace and Knee Pillow, Austria’s Destiny

"Hungarian hussars? Do they deserve to be called an army? I dare say they can't even walk forward even when they dismount!"

One or two Hungarians may be really brave, but a group of Hungarians are the target of our infantry! As long as we deploy the hollow phalanx, the Hungarians will definitely be defeated!

No matter how powerful the Hungarians are, can they still be stronger than the French cuirassiers? Could Barniat be more cruel than Napoleon? "

Everyone in the cafe smiled when they heard this. After all, comparing Duke Barniat with Napoleon can not only enhance the confidence of the Austrians, but also play a role in insulting the law.

Duke Banjat was the nominal supreme commander of the Hungarian army at this time, but in fact this man had always ignored military matters.

At the same time, the control over the army is limited to those private soldiers raised by one's own family and the vassals of one's own family.

In addition, the stupidity and dissoluteness of the Duke of Banyat's family are also well known in the upper circles, such as the various rumors between the Duke and his granddaughter-in-law, as well as the Duke's second heir and his stepmother.

"That's right! After Austria unifies Germany, we will have an army of one million people. By then, one person can break down the city wall of Budapest with just one pee."

Amidst the laughter, these people took out a prepared action plan and asked people in the coffee shop to join their camp.

In addition, they will take to the streets to seek more supporters, and together they will persuade the imperial government to let Archduke Franz accept the title of German Emperor.

With the nobles taking the lead, and the fact that Vienna had just been purged, the people left behind were originally Austrian obedient people, and at least they would not have obvious anti-Austrian tendencies, so their organization could easily gain public recognition and expand very quickly.

In fact, usually these nobles would not go to a public cafe to "plot" on such things, but they witnessed Franz's determination during the previous cleaning.

Those great nobles can be said to be ruthless characters who truly transcend the Three Realms and are not among the Five Elements. Theoretically speaking, if the sky falls and the earth falls, no one can shake their status.

However, such a group of people insist on touching the core interests of the Austrian Empire, but even so, if those wise and benevolent monarchs in the past were still alive, they would definitely forgive their sins.

However, Archduke Franz was obviously different from those traditional monarchs. He did not forgive these privileged families, and even eliminated their chance of making a comeback in the "Wartime Measures".

Although Franz did not kill everyone, he only made it more difficult for the privileged class to make a comeback.

But these measures are completely different in the eyes of the nobles. After all, many nobles seem to have nothing but the shadow of their ancestors in their own eyes.

In fact, the knowledge and circles of these nobles are already a huge advantage, not to mention the explicit or implicit advantages that their noble status brings to them.

In a country like Austria, at least no one would deliberately embarrass a nobleman if they were too full. Even if it was a declining nobleman, few would humiliate him face to face.

To be able to get the most basic respect, he has achieved a lifetime dream that many civilians in this era cannot achieve.

It is definitely easier for the great nobles to make a comeback than it is for ordinary people to start from scratch. Although there are such convenient conditions, few people in the affected families can stand up and turn the tide.

On the contrary, Franz received many death threats, and his bounty in the underground black market had reached an incredible level.

But Franz is not worried at all. After all, he is the real boss behind the underground black market in the Austrian Empire.

It may not be easy to completely eliminate the darkness with national-level power, but if someone with national-level power wants to control the darkness, it will be easy.

Of course, there will always be a few people who do not believe in evil in this world, and they will most likely be killed without even meeting Franz.

There are also a small number of people who will be arrested during the inspection, and if they can survive the brutal interrogation, then there is a high probability that they will be sent to the colonies to open up territory for the Austrian Empire, or they will be sent to the mines to shine. fever.

Back to the topic, this gathering of nobles in Vienna was not directed at Franz, they were just expressing their determination to the future emperor.

However, in Franz's view, these people were still causing trouble for him. After all, it was too late for him to take off the crown, so how could he take the initiative to put on this tight curse.

In addition, the so-called revival of the Holy Roman Empire is just their first step, and regaining the territory of St. Stephen's Crown is just a small test.

Later, they will definitely ask for troops to be sent to France to help France restore its monarchy.

After all, it is their ultimate dream for nobles and monarchs around the world to unite and rule the world together.

Paris France.

The mutiny of the Grand Eastern Fleet and the successive defeats of Bono de Coulen and Emmenable Pélissier shook the confidence of government officials of the Second French Republic in the war.

At first, almost everyone believed that this war would end with France's epic victory. After all, the Austrians next door seemed to be unable to fight, and the Germans had always been like a backdrop and had no atmosphere at all.

In addition, the revolution of 1848 made the French feel that all revolutionaries would love France, and those German states that were powerless against their own revolutionaries would surrender as soon as possible.

It was based on this misjudgment, coupled with multiple impacts such as economic crisis, political crisis, and trust crisis, that ultimately led France to declare war on Austria.

However, the reality is that after the war started, something called nationalism overrode "freedom, democracy and equality."

Instead of surrendering to the wind and embracing France's "liberty, democracy, and equality," the revolutionaries in Germany broke away from a state of disunity and clung to an evil and powerful royal power.

The French, who were keen on exporting violent revolution to foreign countries, encountered backlash for the first time, so at this time the French government was in a state of confusion from top to bottom.

"Obviously we are the righteous party. But why do they want to go against us?

We obviously want to liberate them, but why can’t they understand? .”

The congressmen have heard this kind of words countless times, and Dan Gila will ultimately conclude that the enemy is an inferior nation, so it needs to be civilized with French civilization, and concludes that the war is necessary and just.

"Mr. Dan Gila, the barbarians you call are about to invade Rome again!

Oh, no, they've captured Rome and are now heading towards Paris.

I suggest you take action before our newspapers do, otherwise our noble lords will have to change the 'De' in the middle to 'Von'. "

Before the French Revolution, the middle names of French nobles generally had "De", while "Von" was used in German regions including Austria.
