Chapter 11 The Austrian Who Killed People

() In early April, the Prussian army's backbone member of the royal party and the famous general Prince Leopold I of Anhalt-Dessau called on the Prussian troops loyal to the royal party to gather in the Principality of Anhalt-Dessau. This response was received

With the positive response of the Prussian army veteran and important minister Kurt Christoph Graf von Schwerin and the Altmark royal party, when Vienna received the news, it was said that the Prince of Anhalt-Dessau had already

An army of more than 12,000 people was gathered.

Immediately afterwards, the news from Berlin was very dramatic. Otto's party claimed that Prince Frederick in Vienna was a fake, and the real one was always in Constantinople. The pro-Austrian faction said that Otto and his party

The party intends to rebel, while the Otto party is pro-Austrian and attempts to betray the country.

In this way, amidst the controversy, the ruling parliament of the kingdom composed of Otto and his party members began their first meeting. Their first meeting bill directly hit the lifeblood of the royal party, considering abolishing King Frederick and depriving the Junkers of the rights of the nobility.

The terms of the agreement returned the control rights of the serfs to the Junker nobles. After paying one hundred thalers of silver coins, the Junker nobles could enjoy the entire inheritance of their ancestors.

As a group of bourgeois camps emerging from the northern trade, Otto's party, which represents the advanced and enlightened faction, actually proposed to restore the power of the Junker landowners. This is a bit surprising. You must know that they were in order to recover the power of the Junker nobles from the serfs.

Control has been jumping up and down for several years. What he is doing now feels like he is slapping himself in the mouth, but isn’t this politics? Otto’s blow was enough for Philetlia to endure. Unless Philetlia completely

Abolish the reform achievements of his father.

A few days later, on April 17, the sky in Vienna was clear. However, on such a sunny day, Assassin brought back even more exciting news to the uproar-ridden Kingdom of Prussia.

According to Assassin's investigation, in the face of the soft and hard tactics of Otto's party, the northern Junkers were the first to defect from the camp, and they appeared at the meeting of Otto's party. They were followed closely by the Junkers in Berlin, who also insisted on

Neutrality. To make matters worse, 3,000 Swedish troops appeared from Pomerania, and a large number of Swedish soldiers

Ships gathered in the northern Prussian province of Stettin. Two thousand Swedish troops took off their military uniforms and put on vests to become the new Prussian infantry regiment to defend Berlin. It is said that a larger Swedish army will gather in the Ridland Peninsula. At the same time, Otto

They borrowed a large amount of money from the Swedes and began to arm a team of their own.

After reporting this, Assassin smiled playfully and said, "What are you thinking about?"

"I'm thinking about how to prevent Austria from eating the Prussian cake alone!" The troops from the Principality of Anhalt should be regarded as the main force supporting Feletelia, with a total of 13,000 people, but Otto's party was the Swedish

There are more than 9,000 people, and there is a larger army gathering on the Ridland Peninsula. This kind of strength is really

It’s not enough. If the female literary youth wants to revive the country, they can only rely on other forces. Austria, which has the best relationship with the female literary youth, will obviously not miss this opportunity. I don’t know what the cheap dad thinks, but if

If Rome wants to join Prussia on this side, even if we include me and the embassy cook, we won't be able to gather 200 people.

"If that's the case, you don't have to worry. This is a letter from Caesar." Assassin took out a sealed letter from his corset.

I opened the letter and glanced at it hastily. I was immediately convinced. I knew it, I knew it was impossible for a cheap dad to do this to me!

The letter said that a reorganized front-line Roman legion from Anatolia was on the way. This imperial legion was the bet that the empire placed on Philetlia. He appointed me as that

Aide-de-camp to the Legion Commander.

"Good job, my son!"

Looking at the name signature and encouragement, I couldn't help but tremble and burst into laughter: "Hahahaha!"

"What makes you smile so happily?" Assassin was curious.

"A Roman legion is coming towards Vienna! It doesn't take a second thought to know that the commander of that legion is a character who will be blamed if something goes wrong, so the command of the entire empire's first-line legion is delegated to me. Think about it.

, Assassin, a Roman legion from Anatolia! A first-line Roman legion from Anatolia!!!”

Hippias's Fifth Spartan Legion is just a second-line legion. If it can compete with the elites of the Russians, then the combat effectiveness of the first-line legion can be imagined. More importantly, the first-line legion is not

Consumables like the second-line legion and the third-line legion, how can a cheap daddy use them like this?

Give me a treasure, and all the unhappiness I felt from Poland has disappeared! Of course, my current responsibilities are also very heavy, and the cheap daddy said that his follow-up arrangements will be based on my results!

I don’t know what cheap daddy wants to do, but I know that the more people I kill, the better!

Now that my arrangements are in place, Cheap Daddy must have also made arrangements for diplomatic matters.

Werner disappeared for a day, apparently on the orders of the cheap daddy.

On the second day, Leopold III officially held a public position. Austria began to prepare for war. Leopold III did not have us and Rome was holding back. Their army to conquer Prussia Otto was immediately mobilized. Within a week,

At this time, the Austrian army's troops were released to help the female literary youths recover their country.

Assassin reported the news of the discovery.

15,000 infantry, 2,500 cavalry, and 30 artillery pieces, commanded by Ludwig Wilhelm, Margrave of Baden-Baden.

The Austrian army seems to have a small number of troops, but this Ludwig William is not just a cat or a dog, because his name is known even to us Romans as far away as Constantinople.

He began to serve Leopold III thirty years ago. He fought 33 battles in his life and was never defeated. During the Polish War, he made great achievements in the war against the Dutch and Poles. The Poles even gave him a

The nickname "Red King" came from William's habit of wearing red robes during wartime.

However, the Austrian army did not come together at once. Although we have already heard that the Austrians plan to requisition the Bohemian army, the meeting in Bohemia is still arguing about which army to send.

.And the Prussian pro-Austrian Junkers have patched things up here and there, and have only now managed to gather 800 people to serve as the leading party. As for us in Rome...

The 33rd Spartan Legion will arrive in Venice from the port of Anatolia on a sea ship. This Roman Legion with a combat strength of over 9,000 will arrive in Vienna in early May!

While the Austrians were gathering their troops, Otto's party was not idle either. It turned out that the Kingdom of Prussia had a total army of more than 60,000 people, which was a very large force in Germany, and even the three nearby countries were afraid of it.

But for the so-called reform, the army of more than 60,000 Junker nobles in the Brandenburg area was reduced to 44,000, including zi

There are more than 27,000 people in the new army. They defend Berlin, while the Royalists in the Principality of Unterhal occupy more than 10,000 people. It turns out that these people are stationed in the west, and there are still some left.

These eight thousand people were in Newmark, and they neither corresponded to Otto nor to the important Prussian minister Schwerin. In order to ensure the fruits of victory, Otto and his party used

With the borrowed money from Sweden, he first cobbled together a new army of 3,000 men. However, Otto also knew that the new army was not powerful enough, so he simply hired mercenaries from the Principality of Hesse and bribed Hanover.

Open the way for this group of mercenaries. If nothing unexpected happens, five thousand mercenaries from the Principality of Hesse will appear in Prussia in a month.

Otto's party has a total of 33,000 troops so far. The royalists gathered in Frietlia have a similar number. Schwerin and Prince Dessau have 13,000 troops. The Austrian army has 13,000 troops.

Seventy-five hundred people. We in Rome have a total of 8,000 people. Adding in the motley crew of cats and dogs, there are nearly 40,000 people.

It seems that our advantage is not small, but there is always a huge difference between ideal and reality. On May 11th, just when Austria gathered 11,000 people and prepared to set off, the 33rd Spartan Legion arrived in Vienna, and I counted them.

Counting the number of people, a total of 3923 people….

After receiving the 33rd Spartan Legion into Vienna, I looked at the young man who claimed to be the adjutant of the legion commander in amazement: "How come there are not even 4,000 people? Don't the average first-line legions have more than 9,000 people?"

?”

"Yes, sir, the 33rd Spartan Legion does have a strength of 9,756 people, but!"

"But what?"

"Because the Austrians were afraid of a full Roman legion staying in Vienna, we only came less than half way!"

Hippias, who was full of joy just a moment ago, now spat on the ground with a dark face: "Cowardly Austrian guy...!"

"Habsburg!!! Give me back my legion!!!!!" He let out a roar from the sky, startling the birds all over the sky. I looked down and saw a group of officers around me, all with their mouths wide open and their eyes dull.

Assassin asked fearfully: "Your Highness, what are you doing?"

"It's nothing, I just couldn't help but want to perform a loving performance of the roar of ancient Rome when Augustus lost three Roman legions. Of course, I also wanted to vent my resentment."

"Oh, I see."

"Your Highness indeed has the demeanor of a king. This roar almost made me think Augustus was alive." Hippias responded quickly. Then I saw the officers of the 33rd Spartan Legion with black lines on their heads.

He looked at me and this fat man.

It is said that the Austrians cheat the team members. When I saw it today, it turned out to be true. Damn it, we didn’t even start a fight, but half of the main force was already cheated! If there is a fight in the future, we won’t be completely wiped out!?

"But your highness, don't worry, we have brought 25 artillery pieces and two battalions of Chasseurs from the 33rd Spartan Legion!"

"Very well, Roman, your name!"

"My Excellency, Leon Komnenos! I have just been promoted from regimental affairs officer to the position of adjutant of the regiment by the commander of the regiment!"

Anna Komnenos's same clan? Another collateral royal family. No wonder he became the adjutant of the legion at the age of less than thirty. I patted his shoulder: "Welcome to Austria."

“Nice to serve you!”

That night, I spent my own money to buy a welcome banquet for the soldiers.

Thousands of marks were spent to put out fine wine and delicious food, and five Viennese concubines were summoned, with a total of hundreds of prostitutes to entertain the soldiers.

However, soldiers can live and drink. Leon Komnenos, an old man from the 33rd Spartan Legion, is not so lucky. Not only does he have to let me know the combat effectiveness of each company and the character and ability of each company captain,

Also had to participate in the discussion of the war against Prussia.

"What do you guys think?" I was brainstorming.

Hippias had only one request: "We had better act separately from the Austrians."

I deeply believe this.

Leon Komnenos questioned: "If we don't act together with Austria, where will we fight?"

"That's a problem." However, just as I said this, my eyes were attracted by the force on the map. I raised my head suddenly and looked at the two people. I had an idea.
