Chapter 102: The Secret Plan
Back in Moravia, it was already getting a little dark, and because of the time issue, Ernst chose to go straight back to the castle rather than inspect Moravia.
The town of Ernst is still the same, and the castle is still the same, the only difference may be that there is a lot of new land added along the way, and the sheep herds are also driving dozens or hundreds of sheep to prepare pastures with smiles on their faces.
The Moravian Agricultural Machinery Factory also builds its own trucks, which are far inferior to those of Mercedes-Benz in terms of craftsmanship and appearance, but for the citizens of Moravia, it is enough to be able to run on the road.
Naturally, no peasant in Moravia could afford to buy a truck, which was now ordered by the nobles to facilitate the transportation of grain.
The low price was the main thing, and the appearance and the length of time it could be used were not considered by the nobles, even the Masséna.
Truckloads of loess and gravel were hauled to the embankment, which was a deliberate attempt to increase the height of the embankment after seeing the recent rise in the river and fearing another flood.
Passing by more than 60 acres of land reclaimed earlier, looking around, the area of land that has been reclaimed at this moment is 10 times larger than that of just coming here.
It's just that these lands have not been planted at this time, and the 60 acres of land on the side have been green, if it is not winter, it is estimated that the height of winter wheat here has reached the calf in two months!
When the truck driver in the cap saw Ernst and his party, he hurriedly drove the truck aside, took off his hat and saluted Ernst's carriage.
The cultivated land, the gradually developed industry and commerce, everything in the town were in their eyes, and they admired and respected Ernst, the little lord who was only seven years old.
"Trucks are ...... in military terms"
"Lieutenant Colonel Andrei has ordered thirty vehicles, and for this reason Mayor Stanis Gross went to the barracks to quarrel with Lieutenant Colonel Andrei."
The answer Ernst didn't ask, because it was obvious, how could Stannis Gross be compared to Andre? Andrei was a descendant of Ernst, especially at this time when the Moravian Army was united.
"Now Andrei is only the deputy commander of the lieutenant colonel, no one can say what the future will be, and he must be cautious where he should be careful, and don't leave a handle on people!"
The deputy head of the regiment was still not the head of the regiment even though he was temporarily acting as the head of the regiment, so Bert nodded very seriously, he knew the importance of Ernst's words.
Back at the castle, Cosimo went to the town to invite Massena and André to the dinner that Ernst had prepared for the evening, while Bert went to attend to the dinner.
Kurt appeared in front of Ernst for the first time, his cold face did not change, and because of the training with Leo and Kuipa, he had a scar on his face, which made the already cold Kurt look even more brutal.
"How's the Moravian Special Service?"
The Moravian special service was a jungle special soldier trained by Ernst with the help of the Indian Kuipa and the death gladiator Leo, and Kurt was their first commander, so naturally he was also training.
"There are 80 people left, all of them are the elite of the elite."
It was only a short sentence, but it contained dozens or hundreds of lives and endless torture, and the mere reading of the list of training programs was enough to give Ernst a headache, and it was hard for him to imagine how these soldiers could have persevered.
80 people, not a lot but enough, they are all absolute elites who can pick out ten, if there are too many of them, it is easy for Ernst to distrust their abilities.
In the 70s, the Soviet Union's military camouflage combat uniforms were very suitable for Kurt's body, but compared with the British military uniforms, they no longer had the feeling of aristocratic guards and domestic servants.
"How's the secret plan going?"
Not long after arriving in Moravia, Ernst asked Bert to use all his contacts to select talented children from South America, Africa, and Asia, and these children would be the basis for Ernst's future.
At that time, Ernst didn't have too many ideas, he just felt that he had the financial resources and the foundation, so why not get a private armed force that was absolutely loyal to him?
Moravian Army Regiment? No, that's just the power of Austria-Hungary, and it's a power on the surface. Death row? It was a gift from Archduke Ferdinand to Ernst, and although they had already pledged their allegiance to Ernst, they ......
The only useful thing is the more than 100 guards brought from the Vatican, but they are enough to be bodyguards and officers, and they still need special people to do some secret things.
There were still more than ten years to go in the First World War, and Ernst was only 5 to 8 years old, and under the crazy brainwashing, they would definitely be the most loyal part of Ernst's subordinates in the future.
For example, when the boy reaches the age of 12, he is integrated into the junior team. Their lives were cruel, they were not allowed to wear shoes, they wore only one coat in winter and summer, and they slept on straw. They don't use knives, but pull the grass by the lake with their hands and weave it with their own hands.
At the same time, Ernst was emulated by Sparta's contempt for education, and these killers only needed to know how to read, they only needed to follow orders like machines, and they only needed to know how to complete the task of killing (people).
Ernst did not have a good way to deal with these killings in the future, and it was equally inappropriate to kill them and not to kill them.
Ernst's inquiry was not answered, because the matter was not handled by Kurt, and Kuipa, as a top killer, naturally knew the importance of secrecy, so except for himself, Ernst, and Bert, who was in charge of helping to find the child, Kuipa did not pretend to be anyone.
Even Archduke Ferdinand didn't know that Ernst had a teenage killer training camp, and the town didn't notice the difference, even though hundreds of children were on the nearby hills.
While talking to Kurt, Bert had already arrived with Massena and Andre, who first saluted respectfully before asking about Ernst's gains.
"If nothing else, in the future, the wine business will surpass any industry in Moravia, and Moravian wine will first come to mind when people think of Moravia."
Although it was a dissatisfied tone, anyone could hear Ernst's happiness, in fact, it was not only Ernst, but also the corners of Massena's mouth raised at the thought of the huge benefits that would be brought by red wine in the future.
"The Count just said that Nicholas II wants to open a railway with us, does that mean ......?"
In the eyes of André and Kurt, there is no doubt that the military comes first.
In the face of Andrei's suspicions, the only thing Ernst could do was to shake his head, after all, he did not know the root cause of this matter, and now that the countries were still in a very peaceful environment on the surface, even Emperor Franz would not believe any malicious estimation of Russia towards Austria-Hungary.
At most, at best, it was just a threat, and such a thing as war was probably not even thought of by Wilhelm II, and the same was true of Nicholas II.
