In the dim environment, the chamberlain lightly added wood to the fireplace in the fireplace, Frederick III was warm and lazy in the wide fur sofa, and he was draped in a high-class fur cloak, but when the great war was approaching, he seemed to be very leisurely, which was really enviable.

"How's it going?"

His eyes were closed, but the movement of people behind him could not escape his ears.

"Everything is in our arrangement, the other side is fully moving, Brian agreed to our request, Laszlo is going to be anxious."

There was a hint of schadenfreude in his tone, and Frederick III naturally heard it, but he didn't stop it,

Laszlo, although he is also from the Habsburgs, is really uncomfortable.

Only Frederick III is worthy of inheriting the glory of the Habsburgs, and Laszlo, although he has found some opportunities outside, tries to shake the foundation of the Habsburgs, which is completely inadmissible.

The Habsburgs must have had their roots in the Holy Roman Empire, not the Roman Empire in the East, and Laszló unfortunately did not understand this, and he was doomed to failure.

"Brian is also ambitious, after the fight with Laszlo, don't forget to dispose of him, what grade, and dare to negotiate terms with me."

Frederick III snorted, very disdainful of this Brian.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, Brian's cronies around him are already completely our people, only he doesn't know yet, and when His Majesty wins, Brian himself will accidentally drown."

Listening to the conversation between the two, the chamberlain on the side lowered his head even more deeply, and he already felt a little fear in his heart.

This does not bode well.

"Laszlo thought he was doing something in Prague that I don't know? Hmph, I'm just going to wait for him to make a mess of the army before he calmly marches in, and he thinks I'm asleep in Regensburg. ”

Frederick III's words were smug in them, no one is a fool, everyone has their own judgment.

"Bohemia has always been famous for its mercenaries, and now there are many Bohemians in our army, they are free and loose by nature, Laszló wants to forcibly unite them, he wants to correct the centuries-old Germanic tradition, history will prove that Laszlo's approach is completely wrong, and we will step on Laszlo's fame and establish the feats of the great emperor."

The royal steward behind him patted Frederick III's ass, but it is undeniable that such thoughts pervaded Frederick III's court, and everyone thought so.

Lifting the fur cloak on his body, Frederick III stood up and said lightly,

"You should be vigilant against any tiny enemy, although Laszlo will definitely be defeated this time, but he obviously has someone else behind him, Laszlo is such a young boy, if it weren't for the help of the treacherous and cunning Constantine behind him, he would dare to do such a thing? This war with the Holy See was also assisted by the Patriarch of Jerusalem sent by Constantine, and the Greeks were all extremely cunning, which must be the nature of the Greeks, but the great Habsburgs will not decay because of the instigation of the Greeks, and the glory of the Habsburgs is destined to be established in my hands. ”

Frederick III was still eager to establish meritorious deeds, otherwise he would not have tried to consolidate his imperial power and expand the territory and status of the Habsburgs, but history has proved that his military strength is not strong, so he will die of depression in history.

Seeing Frederick III so happy, the royal family chief clapped his hands at the right time, and a team of excellent and dwarfs rushed in, and began to perform their newly rehearsed plays and dances on the cleared field, and a team of attendant nobles came in from the other side, and the nobles who belonged directly to the emperor such as the imperial barons and imperial viscounts hurriedly came to Frederick III, their faces were full of smiles, and people hoped that the people in power could look at themselves more, because it meant wealth and status,

Frederick III opened his arms comfortably in the wide chair, not caring at all about the nobles who kept coming over to kiss the surface of his feet, his heart was full of self-satisfaction,

Yes! Power! How many people have been fascinated by you throughout the ages!

And now you are prostrate at my feet.

Frederick III could not help but think of this poem written by the bard, and the more he thought about it, the more he realized that it made sense.

Frederick III's plan was clearly working, and it must have caused Laszlë a lot of trouble,

On March 28, 1460, three days after Frederick III and Laszllo declared war, an uprising broke out in the city of Vienna, and a group of rebellious nobles under the leadership of Brian de McKennie besieged the center of Vienna, and after a brief stalemate, the rebels broke through the city government, and despite the bitter pleas of Bradley de Mayer, regent of the Duchy of Austria appointed by László, Bradley was hanged above the gates of Vienna on Brian's orders, and Vienna fell.

Less than a day later, Frederick III's edict of canonization arrived in Vienna, and Brian was appointed regent of the Habsburgs in Austria and made him an imperial count, and then, under the pressure of Frederick III, the local nobles of Austria began to gradually declare their independence from Laszlo's rule and swear allegiance to Frederick III.

"Your Majesty, the high-ranking officers and nobles in the army are very resistant, they believe that such rules will only weaken their combat effectiveness, and at the root, they still think that they cannot abandon the Germanic traditions, and there is no need to establish serious rules and regulations, but rely more on personal bravery."

In the serious atmosphere, Ulrich bowed his head slightly, and Laszlo's gloomy mood made everyone present dare not be angry.

Although Laszlo was not in a very beautiful mood, he had been by Constantine's side for so long, and he also knew that he could not lose his temper with his subordinates at will, let alone show his emotions on his face at will, so he still looked relatively calm,

"Is it only the high-ranking nobles who think like this? What did the soldiers at the bottom say? The homeless and workers, who had recently been reorganized into the army, who also believed that bravery was the only factor in victory in the war? ”

It's better if it's just that the top is unwilling, as long as the bottom soldiers are willing to obey, if the bottom soldiers also think that it doesn't matter, then it's not easy to operate.

“... It's the same, Your Majesty, the main thing is that everyone has been exposed to this situation since childhood, and it's not that it's making things difficult for us. ”

Ulrich's tongue was dry, and if nothing else, Laszlo's majesty was growing day by day.

Laszlo's heart sank, and it was no wonder that the power of habit was still indelible for a short time,

In the long-term melee in Europe, wars of ten, hundred, and thousand men are the norm, and in skirmishes, individual bravery obviously occupies a considerable position, especially between Christians, because the Pope has repeatedly decreed that civil wars between Christians are not allowed, so skirmishes are very common.

And even on the battlefield against the infidels in the east, the mercenaries from Bohemia were mostly small legions, large-scale wars, and at this stage, there has not been a situation in Europe, in history, that is, the Thirty Years' War has shown everyone the length of the war, the Napoleonic Wars have shown everyone the intensity of the war, and the Battle of the Somme has shown everyone the intensity of the war.

"We have to let them know that we are facing a very strong opponent now, which cannot be faced by individual strength, and this requires us to fight as a unit, don't they want to?"

It's hard to say that soldiers will compromise because of such words, people are always focused on immediate interests, and of course, if you let the soldiers with their heads on their belts focus on long-term interests, they will surely answer you, "Please let me live for now, sir, because I may not be able to hear you say this tomorrow." ”

Seeing that none of them replied, Laszlo also knew in his heart that such a statement was to deceive those who were not deeply involved in the world, and for these people, there was nothing more exciting for them than safety.

"Bravery? Bravery, huh? ”

Laszlo muttered, so low that even Margash, who was beside him, couldn't hear it,

"What do you say? Your Majesty? ”

Without responding to Ulrich's question, Laszlo grabbed the cloak beside him and flicked it to himself.

"Magash, Ulrich, come with me to the barracks."

The two hurriedly responded, the three of them were fully armed, stepped on their tall horses, and came to the army camp outside the city at a gallop, due to Laszlo's ban, the barracks were not as crowded as before, and there were people on duty at the wall, but people could still be found coming in and out at the back door, dressed like a typical merchant,

Laszlo's eyes flickered, knowing that this was the officers in the camp enjoying the high-quality supplies brought by the merchants, but he didn't plan to use this matter to attack, the purge of military discipline should be after the army was established, and now the system of the army has been questioned, so what do you care about.

"Gather all the soldiers and officers and come together in the central square, I have something to announce."

Laszlo's attitude affected the soldiers, seeing Laszlo so serious, the soldiers also felt that something big had happened, the herald hurriedly rushed to the officer's tent, and one by one the officer nobles came out of their tent, but fortunately they were not in a hurry to get dressed, indicating that even if Laszlo was occasionally absent, the army could maintain it for a period of time as usual, probably because of the best efforts of Ulrich and Magash.

Some people died, but not completely......
