Struggle in Russia

Brasov County is located in the southeast of the Transylvanian Plateau. The capital is Brasov, the northeast is Moldavia, and the west is Transylvania.

Of course, Transylvania does not have a dime relationship with Wallachia and Romania in the future. This land now belongs to the Habsburg family and Austria, and more specifically it should belong to Habsburg. Hungary under family rule.

It was not until the end of the First World War that the Habsburg family was terminated and the Austrian-Hungarian Empire was divided by five horses. As a reward to Romania for joining the Allies, Transylvania was cut from Hungary and allocated under the Treaty of Trianon. To Romania.

Of course, this is still something to do after 70 or 80 years. For the time being, Wallachia wouldn't mention covetous Transylvania, even the courage to provoke Austria.

It should also be noted that Brasov is located in the basin at the northern foot of the southern Balkans. From here to Prahova County and Bucharest, the mountain is about to be turned over, which means that it is a pass on the foot of the mountain.

Therefore, Brasov is very important from the geographical environment. It is a hub connecting Bucharest to Moldavia and Transylvania. In other words, if the Russians want to enter Wallachia from the northwest and capture Bucharest, Brasov must be a must.

And this is why Dimitri invited Li Xiao to play, and someone just agreed in one go. He is very interested in the defense situation of this traffic arteries and hub. Although the country as long as he knows the situation in Bucharest, considering the urine of the old Yin Nicholas I, the scope of this "area" is very It's hard to say, it's good to be a little more proactive and do more preparation.

Because Brasov is a transportation hub, trade and handicrafts are very developed, and the economy is also one of the best in the country. It is second only to Bucharest in the country. Consider it a big city!

Of course, this big city must be quoted, because Brasov's population is really not large, at least it is not comparable to the big cities of the East Asian monster houses in the later generations. The population in the heyday was more than 300,000. At this time of the year, the population was even smaller, and at most it was a level of a small fifth-tier county.

Brasov, as the capital of Brasov County, is actually a county town. It is no problem to call it that. The entire county town is an ancient Eastern European style, with Gothic architecture everywhere. For example, the famous Black Church is located in this city.

"Really burnt?" Li Xiao asked curiously like a serious tourist.

The guest guide Dimitri immediately replied: "Yes, Mr. Diomede, the outer wall of the church was indeed blackened by the fire ... It was still 1689, because of dissatisfaction with the Austrians, the angry Braso The husbandry craftsmen were uprising ... Panic Austria saw that the situation was over, and ordered the city to be set on fire, trying to block the insurrection of the people of Wallachia with fire, and then ... "

In fact, Li Xiao knows the history of this black church. As an encyclopedia of human figures, he knows much more than Dimitri, a half-drilled tour guide (who really carries private goods).

The Black Church was indeed blackened for the first time in 1689, but the church was blackened not only because of the fire. After that, the largest Catholic church in Transylvania also experienced Two fires.

And to be honest, this church is not so dark, and the outer wall is just a faint tan, which is really black compared to the surrounding buildings. And please note that this is a Catholic church!

Why is it particularly Catholic? Because in the description of Dimitri's tour guide, the Black Church seems to be a witness to Wallachia's resistance to the tyranny of the Habsburgs. In fact, the Austrian ruling group represented by the Habsburgs is Catholic. Laguia people are more Orthodox Christians. Although everyone is the product of the same mother's separation, the two can really hit the dog's head.

The Austrians burned their own churches and had a woolly relationship with the Wallakians. Of course, the fire in 1689 burned more than a black church, but this most famous church was not very good as an Orthodox Wallachian resistance to Catholicism. Symbol of Austria!

Actually, on the other side of the Town Hall Square where the Black Church is located, the St. Nicholas Church of the Orthodox Church and the Brasov Orthodox Church stand there. Even these two churches have a longer history than the black church, except that there is no super-famous pipe organ in the black church, and no music dish of the same name in later generations.

In Li Xiao ’s view, the Black Church is not as famous as it really is. It is not tall and majestic, and the light in it is really unbelievable. The black paint is so dark that you ca n’t see anything. The only thing that makes Xiao Xiao more shocking is the pipe organ's song The choir and the choir are singing.

It's just that Li Xiao's interest in this set of things is not particularly great, but the newsboys who came out of the church to cross the street have aroused his interest.

"The Ploiesti Massacre!"

Li Xiao looked at the impressive headline on the front page and inadvertently glanced at Dimitri next to him. According to the news, a shooting case occurred in Ploiesti City Hall yesterday, causing two deaths and two deaths. Injury is truly terrifying.

OK ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ Li Xiao thinks that newspaper editors of this era should study the shocking editors of later generations to learn how to attract attention. This title is not shocking at all! Besides, it was only two people who were dead. What is so terrible? The beacon nations in the later generations were not embarrassed to be involved in the shooting. Ten or eight of them were in the news.

However, when Li Xiao noticed the title of the casualty, he probably understood why the Wallakians felt terrible. He died of an earl and a viscount, and seriously injured an earl and the county magistrate of Prahova. All big names!

This year, Caomin's life is worthless, not to mention the death and injury of big men, hair loss is a major event. Wouldn't it be miserable if so many big aristocrats died today? Even if the grassroots don't feel miserable, the ruler also feels miserable, after all, isn't it?

And today I can kill the count and the viscount, and shoot the magistrate. Will it be possible to kill the marquis or duke tomorrow and shoot the mayor and cabinet minister? It must be terrible, it must be highly valued, and it must be a killing!

Li Xiao suddenly smiled and asked Dimitri, who was pretending to know nothing about me, and asked, "Mr. Bretianu, the injured Count Petrescu seems to be the largest in Prahova County. Landlord? The dead Viscount Brest and Count Bines are also great landlords like him? "
