On the border between Bavaria and Austria-Hungary, the vanguard of the German 3rd Army was crossing the border and entering the territory of Austria-Hungary. Although, the vanguard was nothing more than a regiment of the 21st Infantry Division. However, they were not afraid at all.

Not far from the 211st Regiment of the 21st Infantry Division of the German Army, an infantry division of the Austrian Army was stationed here. They watched the German Army enter his territory and did not attack immediately.

"General, the Germans have crossed our borders, there is only one infantry regiment, are we going to attack?" The division chief of staff asked.

"Fools, this is nothing more than the vanguard of the Germans. Who knows how many troops are behind them. If we attack, as soon as the follow-up main forces of the Germans arrive, then we are not dead? The major general scolded.

"But the order from Vienna is for us to resist resolutely! If we don't resist, I'm afraid we won't be able to give an account to Vienna! "The chief of staff was a little worried. After all, this was an order personally given by Emperor Karl I. If you disobey even the emperor's orders, it will be a great crime! Once traced, they will all be court-court-martial if they are not sure.

"And what about the Viennese order? You can't let us die, can you? At the beginning on the Eastern Front, I was just a regimental commander. I fought alongside the Germans. The strength of the Germans far exceeded our expectations. Even if there is only one infantry regiment of the German army in front of us, even if we have a division, it will be very difficult to defeat them. A little German follow-up arrived, and we couldn't run even if we wanted to. The division commander said.

The chief of staff wanted to say something more, but he never said it. Although, such disobedience to orders and fear of the enemy are not the qualities of a soldier. However, he also knew that the division commander was thinking about the lives of all the brothers in the division. If they really fight with the Germans, I'm afraid that their infantry division, which is at the forefront, will really suffer heavy losses. It remains to be seen how many people will survive.

"General, our reconnaissance unit has discovered the follow-up units of the Germans, many of them, and the numbers of several infantry divisions have appeared. Even we found tanks of the 3rd Panzer Division of the Germans. A staff officer reported.

"Oh God! The main forces of the Germans were killed. Order the troops, retreat immediately! Without saying a word, the division commander directly gave the order to retreat.

Now, no one cared about any Viennese orders, and after the appearance of the main German forces, everyone thought that they should retreat immediately. After all, that's how you can save your life. If you continue to stay here, you will be killing yourself.

"Sir, did the Austro-Crarian army retreat on its own initiative?" Scouts of the German 211th Infantry Regiment also spotted the Austro-Hungarian Army. It's just that they thought there would be a fierce battle. After all, the opposing side has an infantry division with several times the strength of theirs. But what I didn't expect was that the Austro-Hungarian Army actually retreated directly on its own initiative.

"Good, that's great. The commander had already ordered that as long as the Austro-Hungarian Army did not resist, then we would not attack them. Order the troops, hit the road at once, our goal is Vienna! The colonel said.

The Kingdom of Bohemia, the border where the Austro-Hungarian Army was originally stationed, had already taken the initiative to open. Squadrons of Austro-Hungarian land forces were surrendering to the Germans. You know, after the Germans entered their borders, they didn't have a single shot, and they surrendered to the Germans directly under the leadership of their superiors.

Of course, this is mainly due to the fact that these armies were bohemians. Although, the military affairs of the Kingdom of Bohemia, were the responsibility of the central government of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. However, the Grand Duke of Bohemia still had a very great influence in the army. This made the Grand Duke of Bohemia, after giving the order, the vast majority of the troops obeyed the order, took the initiative to open the border, laid down their weapons, and surrendered to the German army.

The German 6th and 7th armies, without being hindered in any way, successfully entered the Kingdom of Bohemia. A large number of troops advanced along the road, capturing important cities and transportation nodes. Just a few hours later, German tanks appeared on the streets of Prague.

The police of the Kingdom of Bohemia, door-to-door notices, told everyone to stay at home and not go out, so as not to cause conflicts. It is clear that the Grand Duke of Bohemia will not resist the policy and will implement it very well.

Many bohemians, hiding in their homes, looked through the windows at the marching Germans with horrified expressions. However, after discovering that the Germans did not storm their homes, rob them of their wealth and beat them, these bohemians were much more relieved. Even some enthusiastic girls gave fragrant kisses to handsome German soldiers passing by.

"Father, the Germans have taken all of Prague. Their troops, are advancing southward. It is estimated that it will soon enter Austria! Prince Kalini said.

The Grand Duke of Bohemia nodded, though doing so made him feel a little complicated. However, everything he did was originally so that the Kingdom of Bohemia could get rid of Austria-Hungary and become an independent country. Moreover, he was able to take advantage of the opportunity to ascend to the throne of king.

Although, luring the wolf into the house made him a traitor to Austria-Hungary. But what is there compared to what you get, even if you are a traitor?

"The Germans will soon be withdrawn. When they defeated Austria-Hungary, the Kingdom of Bohemia was formed! Said the Grand Duke of Bohemia.

Prince Kalini nodded, his mood equally mixed. On the one hand, he was reluctant to be a traitor. On the other hand, he aspires to become a true prince and inherit the Kingdom of Bohemia. And not like his father, but just a nominal Grand Duke.

Like the Kingdom of Bohemia, the Kingdom of Hungary also chose not to resist. The Chief of Staff of the Hungarian Army, Baron Tobres, had already given the order that all Hungarian troops should stay in the barracks and not go out or fight against the Germans. This directly caused more than a third of the Austro-Hungarian army to choose neutrality. If we add in the other neutral states, there are not many troops that the central government of Austria-Hungary can use. Under such circumstances, it was easier said than done for them to resist the German attack!
