With the thorny problem of the Serbs solved, a small trouble of Schwarzenberg also disappeared, of course, the most important thing is that Duke Alexander is satisfied, so he has no reason to continue to watch Schwarzenberg's jokes , which means that the main obstacle preventing Archduke Franz Karl from ascending the throne as emperor disappeared.

What happened at Schönbrunn Palace did not shy away from outsiders. A large number of nobles saw the scene of Schwarzenberg and Duke Alexander having a drink and chat. They all knew that this meant that the abdication of poor Ferdinand I was just around the corner. Stupid Grand Duke Franz Karl is about to officially become the new master of Austria!

Schwarzenberg didn't keep the outsiders waiting too long. In the next day, he took the support of Duke Alexander and started to deal with the fencers. After pulling and beating, the group could only raise their hands and surrender. Immediately afterwards, this guy used various reasons to seek out those old-fashioned people who stubbornly stood up to Ferdinand I, repaired a few thorns severely, and after driving him out of Vienna, Schwarzenberg was finally clean .

Interestingly, what surprised Li Xiao was that Wendisch Gretz didn't respond during this period. To be honest, he couldn't figure it out. Because logically speaking, as Schwarzenberg's political opponent, Wendisch Gretz must do something to add to the opponent's obstacles anyway.

Whether it's revenge or taking the opportunity to make a deal, you shouldn't be so indifferent. But the reality is that Wendisch Gretz watched Schwarzenberg complete the integration, and he really didn't do anything!

"You still don't know that one too well!"

After hearing Li Xiao's doubts, Duke Alexander laughed and explained: "That one is a pure soldier, who is used to going straight and straight, and doesn't understand this kind of operation at all... Besides, that one didn't like Fei Dinan I, taking the opportunity to embarrass Schwarzenberg, he is willing to do it, but he will not do it if he dies to keep the emperor on the throne!"

Li Xiao nodded, it made sense to say that, but he still felt that it was a pity for Wendisch Gretz, no wonder Sheng Sheng played a good hand of cards into his current virtue, his level is not ordinary!

If he had been Wendisch Gretz, he would definitely have peeled off Schwarzenberg this time, but he gave up such a good opportunity, it is really stupid!

"That's not true!" Duke Alexander said suddenly: "As far as I know, he still did something. It seems that he has attracted a group of people who are not satisfied with Schwarzenberg. It will be even more difficult to deal with him!"

Li Xiao scoffed at this, because Duke Alexander made it very clear that Schwarzenberg's dealing with Wendisch Gretz has only become a little more difficult, that is to say, as long as Schwarzenberg is ruthless, he can still win the opponent. of.

And Li Xiao hoped that they would fight each other evenly and no one could do anything to them,

This is more beneficial to Russia. Because he knew how ruthless Schwarzenberg was in history, it was a snap to deal with Wendisch Gretz's brother-in-law.

Moreover, in history, this guy is not usually tough after he has secured the position of prime minister. He is not ambiguous at all about the secret police or the black means of strict monitoring. Especially when he dealt with Prussia, he made a very hot call, which made the Prussians experience another fiasco like Jena.

Of course, it is not a bad thing for Austria and Prussia to turn their faces. Li Xiao wished that this pair of brothers would fight against each other. Anyway, under the framework of the Holy Alliance, the worse the relationship between Austria and Prussia, the better it would be for Russia. Looking at the first battle in history, basically these two brothers joined forces to challenge the powerful European powers. The power is indeed a bit scary.

When Li Xiao was thinking about how to help Wendisch Gretz strengthen his strength and cause trouble for Schwarzenberg, Duke Alexander suddenly said: "Mikhail has wiped out the rebels in southern Wallachia. Ready to march west!"

Li Xiao was taken aback for a moment, not understanding why Duke Alexander suddenly mentioned this. Aren't we talking about Wendisch Gretz? Why did you go back to Wallachia again?

Glancing at Li Xiao meaningfully, Duke Alexander said slowly: "Mikhail hopes that you will return to Wallachia as soon as possible to assist Earl Speranski to stabilize the local situation. It has been eliminated, but the small remnant party is still very active, the task His Majesty assigned to Earl Speranski is very heavy!"

Li Xiao understood what Duke Alexander meant, but he didn't express his opinion right away, because he wanted to see if his guess was accurate enough. Sure enough, seeing that he was still "indifferent", Duke Alexander sighed and said:

"Stop cooperating with the Hungarian rebels, you've sold them enough weapons to cause Paskovich a lot of trouble, and now the old guy is furious!"

Li Xiao smiled, and it was exactly as he had guessed. The real reason why Duke Alexander wanted to send him back to Wallachia was the war in Hungary. Some time ago, Paskovic suffered another big defeat, which made the old man ashamed. It is said that his vanguard collided with more than 50,000 people of the main force of the Hungarian rebels under extremely unfavorable terrain.

Where did these 50,000 people come from? Almost half of them were militiamen armed with Wallachian weapons. This group of people was sent by Kossuth to Joseph Bem. I was beaten so badly.

This battle greatly boosted the morale of Hungary. After all, Paskovich’s excuse for the previous defeat was that he had a small number of people, but this time more than 30,000 Russian troops were repelled by more than 50,000 Hungarian militiamen. It's very embarrassing.

Of course, Duke Alexander and Duke Mikhail liked to see Paskovich's jokes. What really made Duke Alexander decide to send Li Xiao back to Wallachia was his ability to do business.

Because at the end of the day, Li Xiao got through the door of the Turks through David Lebouf's relationship, and sold tens of thousands of additional rifles to the Hungarians. This was completely out of Duke Mikhail's estimation. He was very worried that Li Xiao would continue to sell weapons to the Hungarians regardless of making money!

You must know that although Duke Mikhail likes to see Paskovich's jokes, he never wants to make jokes like Paskovich himself. And now that he has a full understanding of the fighting power of Wallachia and the Hungarian Revolutionary Party, he will not allow someone to continue selling arms to them...
