Holy Roman Empire

"War must serve politics", this is the best excuse that Franz has come up with. He can't always say that he is worried about the repetition of history. The Hungarians suddenly broke out and pushed back the Bohemian Army

There is no one to believe this. The Bohemian Army has 100,000 troops. Even if it is a 50% discount, there will be 50,000 regular troops.How many Hungarian troops is Budapest now?

There are many nominal troops in the Republic of Hungary. In fact, the forces that Kosut can support are very limited. Local governments at all levels have National Self-Defense Forces, many of which are empty.

The Kosut government has collected some of the frontline defeats. Budapest ’s nominal total strength has reached 80,000, with an average of two or three men and one gun, and the moraleless troops, how much combat power can they have?

At the same time as Prince Wendy Schgratz is a soldier, he is also a politician, and he will naturally not refute this statement.

"His Royal Highness, is there any plan for the government?"

Franz smiled and said: "His prince, did you forget the Italian battlefield?"

Prince Wendisch Gretz nodded. Although he did not think that the Kingdom of Sardinia was a trouble, he would not refuse to win the war more easily.

Austria ’s main forces are coming out, the Republic of Hungary is at stake, and the Kingdom of Sardinia will not attack Venice, so the future will not be faced with 100,000 Austrian troops, but may be 200,000 or 300,000.

There can be no more. The suppression of the Hungarian rebellion is a local battle. The Habsburg family did not make the country angry and angry. Only with a popular base can we support a war of this scale.

"Order the troops on the front line, give me a steady fight, move forward step by step, don't leave the enemy with an opportunity!" Franz added

...

The territory of the Kingdom of Hungary is actually not small, with more than 300,000 square kilometers, which is more than three times that of the later Republic of Hungary.

At this time, two-thirds of the area had fallen to the Austrian government. From a political point of view, the previous political offensive of the Vienna government was very successful.

The Bohemian Legion closest to Budapest is only a few dozen kilometers away, and the Transylvania Legion, the furthest away, is no more than 300 kilometers away from Budapest.

Since the outbreak of the war, the Hungarian government has been panicking, and many people regret it.

Austria ’s response is much larger than they expected. Normal operations are not all about sending police to arrest people. After failing, they will send thousands of troops to suppress, then fail and continue to increase troops ...

In short, the Republic of Hungary relied on the Austrian copy to continuously win, and then forced the Austrian government to recognize their independence. This is the Kosut government's reference to the American War of Independence and the imagined Hungarian War of Independence.

There may be setbacks, they may encounter defeat, and the final victory must belong to the Republic of Hungary.

The highest level of deception is to deceive yourself together.

Well, they may not be liars, but they did compile such a beautiful dream.If such a dream does not exist, it cannot support them to the present.

It's a pity that the director got the wrong script at the beginning, and it was obviously a novice copy to send experience upgrades. Suddenly it became a copy of hell, and he would directly hit the big boss, but are they at level 0?

Budapest

Due to the situation, Kosut had to turn to his biggest political opponent, Earl of Estefan.

Estefan Szechenyi, one of the great aristocrats in Hungary, is also the greatest reformer in Hungary and has a high reputation in the country.

Unlike Kosut who relies on his speech, this is a doer, who has made outstanding contributions in the fields of education, transportation, culture, politics, and economy, and is known as the greatest person in Hungary.

Facts have proved that in terms of influence, the realist can't do anything but the Republic of Hungary, because Eastfan remains loyal to the emperor and opposes any violent revolution.

Politically, Eastfan believes that any economic, political, and social reforms must be carried out slowly and carefully to avoid unpredictable consequences.

Suter advocated the establishment of a rapidly industrialized country, while Eastfan advocated the preservation of traditional and powerful agriculture and continued to follow the path of an agricultural country.

The biggest conflict between the two sides is about ethnic issues. Eastfan believes that Hungary is a multi-ethnic country, and people are cut apart by language, culture, and religion. It is very dangerous to promote nationalism.

He believed that what Hungary needed at the beginning was progressive economic, social and cultural progress, and opposed excessive radicalism and nationalism.

Facts have proved that the nationalism promoted by Kosut will not work, and the Vienna government easily divided Hungary internally.

In desperation, Kosut had to seek help from former political opponents.

"My Excellency, for the future of the 13 million people of the Republic of Hungary, I will invite you out of the mountain!"

Eastfan shook his head, and said after a short ringing: "Your Republic of Hungary does not have more than 13 million people, maybe not even 500,000 people, and the rest are Ferdinand. His Majesty's subjects! "

The invisible outfit B hits the face the most, and Eastfan directly named the real reason for the troubled Republic of Hungary.

Because the government pursues a radical ethnic policy, the ethnic minorities of the Hungarian Republic have chosen to remain loyal to the emperor.

The Republican government did not solve the land problem, and then the farmers decided to be loyal to the emperor; the Republican government did not consider the interests of the working class, and then the workers decided to be loyal to the emperor.

The last remaining are the capitalists and nobles. There is no doubt that a considerable number of them are still loyal to the emperor, and not many people really agree with the Republic of Hungary.

"Your Excellency, now that the Republic of Hungary has been established, the Austrian army is about to be killed. Do you have the patience to watch Hungary finish?" Kosut asked angrily.

Eastfan said calmly: "Mr. Kosut, don't say that these are useless. I started to join the army at the age of 17 and participated in the anti-French war. I spent 18 years in the army before retiring.

I understand military matters better than you. From a military perspective, I see no possibility of winning.You tell me, what can I do now?

Of course, if you want to give up independence and prepare to negotiate with the Vienna government, then it is another matter!"

Kosut's face was dreadful and horrible. Although he also agreed with Eastfan's statement in his heart, he couldn't admit it.

As the head of the Hungarian Republic, he has no choice but to die in the end, and peace talks are the end of political life.
