Chapter 168: When I Wake Up

Secondly, in addition to the destruction of the three divisions, the situation in Krakow was not optimistic, and the newly formed Krakow City Defense Army and the Guards of the Kingdom of Poland were attacked outside the city and suffered heavy losses.

Originally, Landre Promi's Polish Restoration Army was torn apart due to his own troublesome operations.

In fact, the original goal of this revolt was to establish a republic, and it was a republic between merchants and nobles, not between nobles and kings, let alone kingdoms.

But Landre Promi had his own plans, and the so-called uprising was just a show, to show the old men who wanted to see it, to prove the value of the Polish Restoration Army.

One city against three countries, don't joke, only a fool would believe such a thing.

If you could become a king, then the future life in exile would be completely different. And becoming a king is equivalent to having a talisman, after all, according to tradition, the king cannot be executed.

Historically, Napoleon turned the whole of Europe upside down, and the final outcome of the two defeats was only exile.

However, Landre Promi's approach was incomprehensible to many Polish reverters, because it was contrary to their ideals, so division and infighting were inevitable.

The newly formed Krakow City Defense Army and the Guards of the Kingdom of Poland were just young men who had never been on the battlefield, or a group of surrenderers and coerced people drawn from inside and outside the city, who could surrender to Poland as well as to Austria.

Theoretically, Landre Promi had 50,000 troops in his hands, but in practice the gang could not even contain the serfs outside the city, but in a few days the number of troops dropped from 50,000 to 30,000.

Obviously, this could not have been killed by serfs, after all, even if it was 20,000 pigs, they would not be able to eat them all these days.

However, the biggest blow to Landrey Promi was the priest Peter Szczegeny, who was supposed to crown him, who was hung from a tree when he instigated a rebellion by the serfs, and is now dried into a sunny day doll.

The Polish Peasant Union was the organization that suffered the most losses in the uprising, and their top ranks were almost slaughtered, and even the so-called foundations were almost uprooted.

Because it turned out that the serfs and peasants did not listen to them at all, the so-called influence did not exist at all, and they were only stained with the light of the Church and the emperor to drive the believers.

So when these people tried to revolutionize, the people at the bottom first sent them to the guillotine.

Some serfs even felt that the priests had been deceived by the devil, and the simple countrymen decided to save the poor people by their own means, such as cow dung and gold juice, or let the fire purify everything.

In short, there are all kinds of "cures", and the organization has also died out.

Landre Promi's dreams were shattered, and he had to find a random assistant priest and appoint him Archbishop of Krakow.

Then in the historic Wawel Cathedral, a simple coronation ceremony was held in a hurry, and not even a procession took place.

At this time, the top brass of the Polish regents in Krakow were a little confused as to what the new king wanted to do.

There were not many kings who temporarily ascended the throne when the army was overwhelmed, but most of the time it was to boost morale, but Randere Promi didn't even make a march.

So what's the point of his enthronement and coronation? Although Russia and Prussia are still in a wait-and-see state and have no intention of sending troops to Krakow to quell the turmoil, the Austrian Imperial Army is already on the way.

Even without a large army from Austria itself, the garrison of Galicia alone would have been enough for the nascent Kingdom of Poland to drink a pot of wine.

In Krakow at this time, there was unease, hesitation, fear, confusion and ambition, everyone was doing what he wanted, and even the atrocities that happened every moment were considered necessary evils.

The entire nascent kingdom of Poland was in danger of extinction at any moment, and the Austrian newspapers had even arrived in Krakow, but Bem, the only general of the Restoration Army, was still locked up in a dungeon.

It is not that Poland does not have military talents, on the contrary, there are countless Polish regents who came from Prussia, but most of them are not in the right composition, and these people did not join the Polish reincarnation.

Moreover, these people are relatively young, and there are even many Germans and Polish mixed-race children, who are not accustomed to the warlord style of their predecessors, and they want to make contributions on the battlefield more than fighting for power and profit in the city.

In addition to this, there is another problem, the European continent has been peaceful for a long time, and several wars have taken place on a large scale, but they have been of short duration and low intensity.

Therefore, the middle and low-level officers are similar to soldiers on the battlefield, either on an outing or on the run, which leads to the fact that none of these officers obey anyone at this time.

The upper echelons of the new Kingdom of Poland did not know how to fight, but even if there was a part of the manpower that was overwhelmingly delegated to the non-commissioned officers and students who had come out of the Prussian military academy.

The latter is also not qualified enough to convince the public, and it is simply wishful thinking to want to make the army like an arm.

At this critical moment, Landre Promi disappeared out of thin air, and the leaderless Poles had to meet to relieve their worries, but some things became more and more urgent.

For example, the Austrian Imperial Army was far outnumbered and was approaching them step by step.

And the most desperate information was that the team sent to bomb the railroad was attacked by serfs on the way, so the railroad between Krakow and the Austrian Empire was open so far.

However, the Austrian army was still moving slowly, because they did not know that the Poles had failed to sabotage the railway.

After all, Franz had already received the news that the Poles had sent someone to destroy the railway, and because of the hurry, the pigeon letter was not written in detail.

He couldn't even tell whether the Poles were going to blow up the railroad or if they were going to do something about it.

Fearing an ambush or for security reasons, Franz would send troops to clear the field at each stop, and refused all invitations from local nobles and merchants to stay in the heavily protected train cars.

The railways on the road, including both sides of the railway, will be sent to search carefully.

Although Franz was not idle, and even led people to carry out the Austrian version of "fighting local tyrants and dividing the fields" in a safe area, it would be a ghost if the speed of the march could be fast.

The so-called Austrian version of "fighting local tyrants and dividing the land" has been mentioned above, but it is more appropriate to say that it is a looting or forcibly nationalized land.

But since the Poles knew, then Franz was about to know. He wasn't in a hurry at all, wishing that the fire would burn as long as possible.

But at this time, Britain and France could no longer sit still, and the French wanted to send a volunteer army to support Poland, and the night charity balls in Paris were held one after another.

Legend has it that the good people of the British Empire wept every day, and even the natives under its rule were eager to go to the European continent to support the Poles.
