Chapter 683 The Culprit

The two royal guards covered their faces and reluctantly prepared to leave with Grand Duke Louis. Colonel Bordeaux felt that this was unfair, but he was his immediate superior and there was nothing he could do about it.

"Grand Duke Louis, I disagree with your sentence."

Grand Duke Louis was a little surprised. Although he had no real power, and even the royal guards nominally under his jurisdiction were dominated by factions, no one had really refuted him since the death of the old emperor.

"Franz, do you have any dissatisfaction? I am the commander-in-chief of the royal guard!"

Grand Duke Louis was far from his three brothers in terms of intelligence and emotional intelligence.

He didn't have the demeanor of his seniors at all, but he took on the airs of his elders.

Normally, Franz would turn a blind eye to other matters. But there is no need to discuss this matter at the moment. This matter is not a trivial matter.

This kind of muddled punishment not only fails to serve as a warning, but also encourages unhealthy tendencies.

"Grand Duke Louis, first of all, they violated the prohibition of the Royal Guards and disobeyed my orders, and these two people should be responsible for my safety.

What they did not only failed to protect my safety, but also put me in danger.

Isn't it a bit too frivolous for you to just let them change their guns and return to the Royal Guards? "

"Then get them out of your guard."

Franz forgot that Archduke Louis was not thinking well.

"Then what should we do if today they bring back not two guns, but two bombs?"

"This" Grand Duke Louis immediately felt that the problem was serious, so Franz took advantage of the victory and pursued it.

"What if they are not responsible for my safety, but the safety of His Majesty the Emperor?"

"this"

"What would happen if two bombs exploded next to the emperor?"

Grand Duke Louis swallowed a sip of saliva and pulled his collar. The assassination of the emperor would be a disaster for the entire family and the entire country.

"Then what do you want to do?"

Franz understood that talking to such people still requires some skills: "Although they two deserve to die, for the sake of not making a big mistake and for their hard work over the years, let them be exiled."

In this era, exile is a severe punishment second only to the death penalty, but it is still much happier than being hanged. Moreover, such aristocratic children will rely on family connections to find a place of exile with beautiful scenery, and some people will even be exiled to Paris, Go to a big city like London.

Or they could board the ship directly and become Americans, but Franz would not let the exile turn into tourism. Their destination would be Congo or East Africa.

Whether they can survive or not depends entirely on their luck. Of course, this kind of colony is also full of opportunities.

If these people really have the ability to completely complete the class jump in a curved way, Franz will give them a chance to change their ways, but it is up to them whether they can seize it.

In fact, in addition to the several troops mentioned before, the German militia in Hungary is also a trustworthy force.

Franz would slowly provide them with some weapons, as far as the Hungarians might recruit them.

Franz felt that was impossible, because the Royal Hungarian government had repeatedly organized operations and massacres against these immigrants, making the conflicts between the two sides overwhelming.

Moreover, one of the most important reasons why the Hungarian government failed in history was narrow nationalism. They could not even accept submission to their own nation, so how could they reach a consensus with these German immigrants?

After the completion of the Great Illyrian Railway, the Austrian Empire will form a semi-encirclement situation on the Kingdom of Hungary.

As for Transylvania in the east, Franz was not worried, because General Anton von was very unfavorable to the Hungarian government. At the same time, he was a veteran who had participated in the anti-French war and hated revolution and rebellion.

Similarly, Franz did not feel that the Hungarians could truly accept the Transylvanians.

Galicia in the north is in charge of General Stadion. Although this general is not very old, he is first-class in terms of family background, strategic vision and political sensitivity.

But he was not in good health and died suddenly in office just after the rebellion in 1849.

So if everything develops as Franz expected, the Kingdom of Hungary will be trapped in the pocket formation.

At this time, in the royal estate of St. Stephen's Crown Territory, some Hungarians who were saved by Franz discovered what kind of life they had lived before!

Some of the literate single-clothed nobles began to write letters to their relatives and friends. Anyway, the management of the royal estate was not particularly strict at this time, and they could sneak in at any excuse.

As for German, at least the nobles can still speak a few words.

In fact, the Hungarian serfs in the manor had similar thoughts, but unfortunately they could not write letters and did not speak German.

But this does not trouble them. After all, the manor is so big, and it is not obvious if there is one more person or one person less.

Although Franz had not anticipated this situation, he had already made similar regulations.

Anyone who can speak German can be treated as a German. Hungarians, the elderly, children, and women can be accepted. Young men can only provide necessary relief except for previously rescued refugees.

However, this was mainly for the sake of the safety of the manor. After all, there shouldn't be too many secret plots like this in the history of the world.

Even if it wasn't a covert operation, Franz was almost mad at the story of the farmer and the snake. The fighting power of the elderly, women, and children is relatively low, and they are usually weak-willed and easily influenced.

As for the young Hungarian men, they are also subjects of the Austrian Empire, so they will provide necessary relief when they encounter difficulties.

But Franz can't save them from suffering for the time being. If he forcefully rescues them, not only will he fail to save them, but he will also sacrifice himself, and then cause more people to suffer.

This is not incompetence, nor is it ruthless, but just doing what he can.

The cholera that started in 1846 was not the most serious in London, and the reason why it is so impressive is that there are more records of it.

Especially critical realist writers and humanists such as Dickens, who have completely nailed Britain and London to the pillar of shame.

In fact, the cholera epidemic in London is completely different from the cholera epidemic that Russia is experiencing. The death of tens of thousands of people is a disaster, and the death of millions of people is just a number.

In fact, in addition to the terrible cholera epidemic, Russia is still fighting a hopeless war. The Tsar's army only needed one victory to completely destroy Imam Shamil's army and crush the Chechens' resistance.

But God favored the weaker side at this time, and the war and cholera epidemic made Russia even worse.

At this time, Nicholas I inherited the Tsar's traditional skills very well. He announced that the Jewish talent was the culprit of this cholera epidemic!
