Chapter 34： Panicking Grand Dukes

In the Hofburg Palace, after receiving the news, a group of royal dukes were anxiously thinking about the countermeasures. They don't want to run, they can't run anymore.

Before the situation got out of control, the Vienna court was holding a secret meeting to consider whether to replace Prime Minister Metternich and calm down the anger of the people.

The result was a sudden chaos that broke the deployment of many people. Now there are rebels everywhere, and they dare not risk leaving.

The lessons of the French Revolution told them that the rebels could be noble, no matter what the noble status was, they would kill the nobles.

In fact, at this time, as long as the palace guards go out to level off the chaos, there is still a great chance that this rebellion will be wiped out in the cradle.

Unfortunately, there is even one of the nobles who dares to take charge. No one dares to make this decision, not even the courage to go out to command the city defense forces to riot.

The attitude of Emperor Ferdinand I can already be ignored. Suddenly receiving such a great stimulus, epilepsy has been committed again, and he cannot be expected to make a decision.

No one wants to be a scapegoat, and Queen Anna is not stupid. She never likes to participate in politics. At this time, she will naturally not express herself.

Prince Franz Carr, who was second only to the Emperor, was so pale at this time that it was obviously impossible for him to make a decision.

The only Archduke of Louis, who was somewhat capable, was not able to cope with such a big scene, otherwise he would not be suppressed by Prime Minister Metternich in the Regent Committee.

"The news has been sent out. For a maximum of two days, the city defense forces will come back to counterinsurgency and order the troops to stand by for help!"

The frowning Grandpa Louis finally made a decision that was not decided.

Quit Vienna for escape?

No one can afford this consequence, nor can the Grand Duke Louis.

Once Vienna was abandoned, the impact would be great. The Habsburgs would have to accompany the Orleans royal family in France and lose the throne together.

At this time, everyone looked at Ferdinand I as a child, and everyone felt that there was no bright future.

If Ferdinand I was a normal person, this one could also call the rebel leaders to negotiate, after all, most of the rebels in the city were uprising under the banner of the emperor.

Using political means, it is still possible to win over some of the rebels, and later things will be easy to handle.

They consider themselves capable of political struggle and will not lose to a bunch of upstarts. As long as it is within the scope of the rule, everyone has a way to deal with it.

This is a good thing for Franz. For their own benefit, the nobles now need a promising monarch to reshape the majestic protection of their rights.

...

The news of the Vienna rebellion has been passed to Franz, but only a day later than the government order.

"Albrecht, something went wrong in Vienna, and there was a clash between the opponents of the demonstration and the army blocking them on March 7th, and the rebellion broke out in Vienna that evening."

Upon hearing the news, Albrecht's face changed, and he hurriedly asked, "How is the situation now, has the rebellion been suppressed?"

Franz shook his head and said, "I don't know yet. But the possibility of the rebellion being suppressed is very small. Prime Minister Metternich is old, and no one in the Vienna government has this responsibility!"

The Austrian Empire is old and no one wants to bear the consequences of suppressing the rebellion.

The emperor could not do the normal business. Whoever made this decision would mean the end of political life.

This is not only from the enemy's hacking, but also from the internal attack, the executioners, butchers, etc. will be charged a lot of overhead.

In this case, in order to avoid becoming a scapegoat, many people would be afraid to order the **** suppression from the beginning of the rebellion.

Basically, we have to wait for things to get serious. Everyone is aware of the threat before conservatives can work together to suppress it.

This is the commonality of the old European empires. Take the Paris Revolution as an example. The death toll is just a single digit. Where is the revolution? It is clearly a village-scale fighting.

The March Revolution in Vienna is almost the same. The casualties caused by the crossfire between the rebels and government forces are definitely not as many as those caused by rogues.

The so-called military sympathy for the revolution in many history books maintains neutrality in the revolution. In fact, no one gave them an order to suppress it.

In this era, "traffic depends on communication, communication depends on roaring". Information transmission is very inconvenient. No repression was ordered from the beginning. When the rebellion became loud, even the order to suppress the repression could not be passed.

This is European politics. The officers at the bottom did not dare to decide. The suppression of the rebellion had to be reported at various levels, waiting for the cabinet to make a decision. When they made a decision, the daylily was cold.

Albrecht sighed, looked in the direction of Vienna, and said helplessly: "Let's speed it up!"

"No need! At the current speed, we can reach Vienna the next morning, and even if we speed up, we will not be able to launch an attack at night!

Vienna will not fall so fast. There are still so many police officers and five thousand city defense forces in the city. Even if they are all waste for a while, there should be no problem?

I have ordered the court guards to make them more vigilant. A group of Wuhe people cannot attack! Franz explained

It is impossible to march overnight. The troops must maintain sufficient physical strength, otherwise how can they ensure combat effectiveness?

Franz's military command capability, although only general, he still understood the "tiring principle".

The main reason Albrecht wants to speed up is political. Originally, the city defense forces went out for training, causing the Vienna rebellion not to be suppressed in a timely manner, and his commander of the city defense forces would have to be blamed.

Now that I have got the news, I haven't rushed back as fast as possible, and it is politically tainted.

All these responsibilities will be borne by his commander of the city defense army. He has nothing to do with Franz. Who makes him the coach?

Franz also knows these issues, but now he can't take risks, and it is the most important thing to fight down the rebellion steadily.

The problem of carrying a blame, how many subordinates do the subordinates carry for the leader?

"But now, the chaos is still a group of black people. If it is a long time, it may become a climate, it will not be easy to fight!" Albrecht thought for a while

"Albrecht, don't worry about this. I promise that the longer the chaos, the more chaotic the party will be, and the decision is impossible to integrate!" Franz said with confidence.
