Holy Roman Empire

After exhausting his lips, Franz barely persuaded his mother to obtain the right to free time, but the class still had to be attended, but it was cut a lot.

For example, Franz believes that the less useful religious lessons, language lessons, and art lessons are all compressed. If it is not Sufi ’s insistence, he will even delete the political lessons.

The main content is that it still stays a hundred years ago, for example: the nobility is supreme, the knight spirit is sacred ...

Franz is most interested in the academic of the emperor, only the cut version is left, and the conspiracy and tricks are not visible, and the spirit of the king is left.

For example, when the emperor's tiger body shocked, the heroes bowed down and bowed their heads.

...

This is training the emperor, not fooling the people?

If an emperor was cultivated according to this standard, an additional person would have to be added to the guillotine due to the complicated situation in Austria.

It is now 1846. If nothing goes wrong, Franz will inherit this ancient empire two years later, and he has little time left now.

Join politics in advance?

This is obviously impossible. Anything that changes the overall situation of history will bring uncertainty to the future. Franz will not take risks before he succeeds.

Of course, he would n’t want to join in. How much can a 16-year-old kid fare in politics?

Even if Franz is the crown prince, he can't change his age.

However, this does not prevent him from doing things. In many cases, pushing hands behind the scenes is much better than directly charging in front.

For example, now Franz is going to visit a big man, the legendary Austrian Grand Duke Karl.

As the most legendary general of the Allied forces in the Anti-French War, he defeated the French many times and was promoted to marshal at the age of 25 due to merit. He was also the only general in the Allied Forces who was afraid of Napoleon.

Otherwise, the incompetence of the Vienna government destroyed a good hand. Perhaps the anti-French war did not have to wait for the Russians to save the field. It ended in advance, and Austria did not have to lose the Netherlands.

Such a marshal specializing in the emperor's incompetence will naturally have no good results, especially Grand Duke Karl or the royal family.

Fortunately, here is the European continent, and Emperor Franz I is also the grandfather of the protagonist, and it is not a cruel master. This marshal of the high-powered master can only be active until now.

A military strongman does not mean a political strongman. After using him to reform the Austrian army, the political opponents used a little trick to let him resign and go home.

From then on, Grand Duke Carl went home to study military theory and wrote military books such as "On General's Tactics", "From 1796 German War Situation Theory" and "1799 German and Swiss War History".

This is how a generation of strategists developed. Dagong Karl believed that military science is composed of two parts: strategy and tactics.

Strategy is the science of the supreme commander, and the task is to formulate war plans and determine military operations.Tactics is the art of commanders at all levels and is subordinate to the battlefield.

Both strategy and tactics are composed of certain rules or principles. The important principle of military science is to correctly calculate the weapons and weapons that can achieve the intended purpose. The strength must be adapted to the purpose.

No matter how strong the troops are, they can only be used in a timely manner at the time of decision to produce the greatest effect.

Therefore, it is the most effective way to win the battle by correctly judging the timing and concentrating the troops at the moment when the effect is most effective.

Another important point is to form an overwhelming advantage over the enemy in decisive places.The strength not only refers to the number of troops, but also includes the morale of the army, the ability to command, and the terrain conditions.

At the same time, it also divides the types of operations into offensive and defensive types, and considers that offensive is more advantageous, pointing out that defensive operations only make sense when they are scheduled to be turned into offensive.

He also clearly put forward the concept of a reserve team, and clearly pointed out that no matter whether it is offensive or defensive, the reserve team must be left to prevent unexpected situations on the battlefield.

Grand Duke Karl believes that the commander-in-chief is important to the fate of the country and the lives of millions of people, but the commander-in-chief is not born, but is built on knowledge and experience.

A true commander must deeply understand the essence of war, study the laws of war carefully, and learn and apply the experience of himself and others in practice in order to be able to use various military principles freely.

Such a talented military strategist would be sorry for the reputation of the traverser if he did not use it.

Military reform is not just about being correct. The conservative forces in the military are often stronger than ordinary people think. Franz knows this well.

Any reform is to violate interest groups, and a rebound is naturally indispensable. Franz said that he could not carry it.

For example, if Franz proposes reform of the staff system, it is estimated that everyone will laugh at it, and some people will even point out that the bear children are playing.

If you change this Duke Carl, it will be different, no matter if everyone disagrees, you must sit down and think about it.

"Your Excellency, wait a moment, the master will come out in a moment!"

The housekeeper said politely that there was still a bit of anxiety in his tone. Franz is not an ordinary prince. Is it really good to cool him like this?

But for Grand Duke Karl, these are clouds, and speaking of seniority in the royal family, he is the grandfather of Franz.

Leaving these aside, Franz had to give him a face because of his influence in the imperial army, because today Franz came to visit on the pretext of studying military affairs.

"It doesn't matter, I'm waiting here. By the way, make me a pot of tea. Recently I don't want to drink coffee!" Franz said with a slight smile

He is not angry at all, anyway, this old man will get lunch next year, there is no need to worry about a dead person.

Time passed in a hurry, more than an hour passed, and Franz was still drinking tea there, looking at the newspaper, without a trace of impatience.

"Little Franz hasn't seen you for a long time, you are all so tall!"

A hearty voice sounded, and Franz knew that the person was Grand Duke Karl, and no one here dared to talk to him like that.

"Dear Honorable Marshal, can you remove that small print when you call me, I am already 16 years old!" Franz said helplessly

"Really? My little Franz has grown up. What's the matter with me today?" Duke Carl asked with concern.

Franz didn't care about the details of Duke Karl's speech. Little Franz would be Franz. Who is Duke Karl's grandfather's brother?

"My Excellency Marshal, I have read your military works, and I have a deep sense of coming to ask for advice!"

"Speak, what do you don't understand, need me to explain it to you?" Duke Carl said with a laugh

"It's your idea of ​​commander-in-chief, I found that the Imperial Army did not do enough in this regard, and it did not substantially solve this problem!" Franz said.
