Prince William's attitude did not surprise Ron, although Prince William, who was close to the military in Ron's heart, was much better to serve as the regent of Prussia than the current King of Prussia, but it did not mean that he unconditionally supported Prince William to seek this position by means of a coup d'état.

Ron was well aware that King Frederick (William I's brother) was not the deposed Emperor Ferdinand of Austria, and even if his ideas were not popular with the military hierarchy, he still had a loyal army in his hands.

Not to mention the fact that the newly established Prussian Constitution allowed King Frederick to (forced) to win over a group of liberal parliamentarians, and if the military chose to depose the Prussian king, there would inevitably be large-scale unrest in Prussia, and a civil war would break out.

Under the internal and external troubles, the overall interests of the Kingdom of Prussia will inevitably suffer, and if it is not good, it will be in danger of overturning.

Ron regretted that William I could not become regent, but at the same time looked at William I with a look of relief.

Prince William already has the big picture that a king should have.

[Ron didn't know that Prince William chose to back down because he was afraid that he would not be able to deal with the complex problems at home. 】

"Your Royal Highness!" Ron asked scrutinically, "Do you want me to send someone back to Berlin to explain to the Count?" ”

"Go ahead!" William I nodded in agreement with Ron's idea.

"Yes!" Ron hurriedly gently strangled the horse under his crotch with the reins, and the war horse, which had been trained in Prussia for a long time, turned around after receiving Ron's signal.

Just as Ron turned his horse's head and returned to headquarters, William I's voice reached Ron's ears again.

"By the way, I ordered someone to tell my wife not to do anything detrimental to the Kingdom of Prussia during this time!" William I said in a slightly tired voice.

Ron turned to William I and nodded, leaving under William's gaze.

Looking at Ron's fading voice, William I couldn't help but sigh again.

I silently prayed in my heart that my ambitious wife would not do something stupid that had no meaning.

The Kingdom of Prussia can no longer withstand internal strife!

After Ron's departure, William I continued his safari.

……

On the other hand, after leaving the Prussian barracks, the mayor and the councillors went to the Austrian Imperial barracks not far from the Prussian army with the mentality of giving it a try.

When the "virtuous men" of Fulda first stepped into the confines of the Austrian Imperial military camp, they were subjected to several times more severe interrogations than those of the Kingdom of Prussia.

The Austrian Imperial Army of this period was different from the mixed army of landlords and nobles of the Kingdom of Prussia, and also different from the "burgher" army of the French Republic.

In the Austrian Empire, where the law of primogeniture was firmly enforced, many small and medium-sized nobles were willing to send their second sons to the army or the church to prevent them from conflicting over property.

In this era of aristocratic decline, there are very few nobles with ambition and deeds, and the vast majority of nobles are adhering to the style of eating and waiting for death, even more so after entering the army, not to mention that the salary of the army of the Austrian Empire is really pitiful, and they cannot survive on a meager salary, and they begin to eat empty salaries and make extra money, which has caused a serious decline in the combat effectiveness of the Austrian Imperial Army.

Marshal Radetzky's Venice and Lombardy are fine, at least under the care of Marshal Radetzky.

The armies of Hungary, Austria, and Bohemia were already seriously decayed, and the two years of the Great Revolution brought the armies to collapse at the touch of a button, and there were often groups of armies that were sent to their deaths, and many non-existent troops and soldiers were exterminated by the invincible Hungarian Revolution.

The new emperor of that time, Franz. Joseph couldn't help but be furious when he saw the battle report from the front. Schwarzenberg, of course, also understood the cattleness in the army, but he did not stop it.

Wait until the empty pay arrives at Felix. Schwarzenberg was expecting the time when Felix. Schwarzenberg decisively invited Tsarist Russia, and the Austrian Imperial Army also launched a counterattack in an instant.

During the attack on Transylvania, Russia and Austria staged another farce of massive war losses.

After a near-farcical toss, the Austrian Imperial Army finally eliminated most of its empty salaries and increased its combat effectiveness, but its innate aristocratic character did not disappear.

Arrogance still flowed in the bones of the Austrian Imperial Army.

After some investigation, the humiliated mayor of Fulda and the councillors finally arrived at the castle where Albrecht was located.

This castle on the outskirts of Fulda was originally the residence of a wealthy merchant, and after Prussia and Austria were stationed in Fulda, the wealthy merchant hurriedly took his family to Frankfurt.

The castle was also turned into an Albrecht line.

When the mayor and the councillors met Archduke Albrecht, they were amazed by Albrecht's age.

Albrecht, who was born in 1817, is now only 33 years old, and it is astonishing that he is already the supreme commander of an army at the age of 33.

When the adjutant told the mayor and councillors about Albrecht's lineage, they realized that the young general was the son of Archduke Karl.

No wonder he could be the commander of the Austrian Empire at this age.

Everyone subconsciously labeled the head of the Archduke Albrecht as the second generation of the military, and their eyes revealed a trace of contempt.

In their hearts, how could a second generation of a military like this command a good war!

Archduke Albrecht, who had been looking down at the map, did not notice their eyes, and in the face of the arrival of Fulda and the others, Albrecht also calmly asked them about the purpose of coming to the barracks.

"Your Excellency!" The mayor respectfully spoke: "On behalf of the inhabitants of Fulda, we hope that your army will be able to fire artillery during the day!" ”

Albrecht jerked his head up, and the mayor, who felt like he was being targeted by a wild beast, instantly held his breath, and he smiled more ugly than crying.

The city councillors also swallowed with difficulty, they were a little afraid that Archduke Albrecht would pull them out and shoot them if he gave the order.

After a while, Albrecht finally spoke: "I will not be able to agree to your terms!" All military deployments of the Empire are planned, and even I, as a commander, cannot change these plans without permission. We're here to help you defend yourself against the invasion of the Kingdom of Prussia! If nothing else, then it's up to you to leave! ”

Archduke Albrecht issued an eviction order to the mayor and city councillors of Fulda, and then looked down and continued to look at the map of the Fulda area.

Seeing this, the adjutant hurriedly ordered two soldiers to "invite" the mayor and his own city councillor out.

The mayor and councillors were "invited" out of the Austrian Imperial tent, and the mayor and councillors who returned to Fulda explained to the people of Fulda the situation of the Austro-Prussian army.

The citizens of Fulda had no choice but to continue to endure the abuses infringed upon them by Prussia and Austria.

Of course, it is not that no one has thought of leaving Fulda for refuge in Frankfurt.

However, all the roads along the same Frankfurt were blocked by Prussia and Austria, and everyone who wanted to go to Frankfurt or elsewhere had to pay a large amount of tolls, goods, and army maintenance...... To put it simply, Prussia and Austria had begun to loot the entire Duchy of Hesse-Kassel with impunity in order to compensate for the military expenses of the long occupation.

In the early morning of 3 November, before the fog had cleared in the woods, a carriage entered the tent of the Austrian Imperial Army, escorted by a group of Austrian hussars wearing eagle helmets.

The top brass of the military, led by Albrecht, went out to greet them, and the carriage slowly stopped in the garden outside the castle.

The door opened, and the Austrian Imperial Chancellor, Foreign Minister Felix. Schwarzenberg gets out of the car.

"Your Excellency the Prime Minister!" Archduke Albrecht hurriedly stepped forward to Felix. Schwarzenberg said.

"Mr. Commander!" Felix. Schwarzenberg bowed slightly at Albrecht.

The two entered the castle with a group of Austrian generals.

After everyone was seated at the long table, Felix sat in the main seat. Chancellor Schwarzenberg roughly swept the generals in front of him, cleared his throat, and said lightly: "I know that you want to teach Prussia a hard lesson, and I think the same as you. The German region can only have one leader, and this leader must be the Austrian Empire, and the Kingdom of Prussia only needs to obey the arrangement of the Austrian Empire and be an honest follower! ”

Felix. Schwarzenberg's words resonated with the Austrian generals present, and many of the Austrian aristocratic officers, whose minds were still stuck in the Napoleonic Wars, still believed that Prussia had succeeded by picking up leaks.

If it weren't for the fact that the Austrian Empire had been so badly overdrawn in the confrontation with Napoleon that the subsequent Congress of Vienna had to compromise with each other, where would there still be Prussia's later bravado.

The self-proclaimed Big Brother of the German region would never allow any transgression by Prussia.

"As you must be aware, I have been ordered by Your Majesty to go to the Russian Empire to discuss with the Russian Empire the punishment of Prussia. Emperor Nicholas I of the Russian Empire has promised us that he will not interfere in our punishment of Prussia again. So, you can do what you want to do with confidence! "Felix. Schwarzenberg gave the order to mobilize in a veiled manner.
