War Palace and Knee Pillow, Austria’s Destiny

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

Originally, Landry Promy's Polish Nationalist Army was torn apart due to his own unscrupulous operation.

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

But Landry Promi had his own plans. The so-called uprising was just a performance, performed for those gentlemen who wanted to see it, to prove the value of the Polish Nationalist Army.

One city versus three kingdoms, don't be ridiculous, only a fool would believe this.

If you can become a king, your future life in exile will be completely different. And becoming a king is equivalent to having a talisman. After all, according to tradition, the king cannot be executed.

In history, Napoleon turned the whole of Europe upside down, and the final outcome of his two defeats was nothing more than exile.

However, Landry Promy's approach was not understood by many Polish reunifiers, because it ran counter to their ideals, so division and internal strife were inevitable.

The newly formed Krakow City Defense Force and the Royal Guards of the Kingdom of Poland are just some fledglings who have never been on the battlefield, or a group of capitulationists and coerced people attracted from inside and outside the city. They can surrender to Poland. , can also surrender to Austria.

Theoretically, Landry Prome had 50,000 troops in his hands, but in fact, these people could not even deal with the serfs outside the city. In just 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 there were 20,000 pigs, they would not be able to eat them all in the past few days.

But the biggest blow to Landry Prome was the priest Peter Szczegheny who was supposed to crown him. He was hung on a tree when he incited the serfs to rebel, and has now dried into a sunny doll.

The Polish Peasants' Union was the organization that suffered the most heavy losses in this uprising. Their top leaders were almost slaughtered, and even their so-called foundations were almost uprooted.

Because it turned out that the serfs and peasants did not listen to them at all, and the so-called influence did not exist at all. They could only drive believers with the help of the church and the emperor.

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

Some serfs even thought that the priests were bewitched by the devil. The simple country people decided to use their own methods to save these poor people, such as feeding them cow dung and gold juice until they were full, or letting the flames purify everything.

In short, there were all kinds of "treatment methods", and the organization was declared dead.

Landry Promy's dream was shattered, and he could only find an acolyte and appoint him as the Archbishop of Krakow.

Then in the historic Wawel Cathedral, a simple coronation ceremony was held without even a procession.

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

There were many kings who temporarily ascended the throne when the troops were approaching, but most of them were to boost morale, but Landry Prome didn't even hold a parade.

So what's the point of him being crowned? Although Russia and Prussia are still in a wait-and-see mode and have no intention of sending troops to Krakow to quell the chaos, the Austrian Empire's troops are already on the way.

Even if there is no large army coming from Austria, the garrison in Galicia alone is enough to feed the newly born Kingdom of Poland at this time.

At this time in Krakow, there is uneasiness, hesitation, fear, confusion and ambition. Everyone is doing things according to their own wishes, and even the atrocities that occur every moment are considered necessary evils.

The entire new Kingdom of Poland is facing the risk of destruction at any time. Austrian newspapers have even reached Krakow. However, the only general of the Zionist Army who can fight - Behm is still locked in the dungeon.

This is not to say that Poland has no military talents. On the contrary, there are countless Polish restorationists who came from Prussia, but most of them have the wrong composition. These people did not join the Polish Restoration Army.

Moreover, these people are relatively young, and there are even many German and Polish mixed-race people. They are still ambitious and can't stand the warlord style of their predecessors. Rather than fighting for power and profit in the city, they want to make achievements on the battlefield.

In addition, there is another problem. The European continent has been at peace for a long time. The several wars that have occurred were large in scale, but they were short in duration and low in intensity.

As a result, middle and low-level officers were almost like soldiers on the battlefield. They were either outing or escaping. This led to the fact that none of these officers obeyed the other at this time.

The top leaders of the new Kingdom of Poland did not know how to fight, but even some of the manpower gave power to the cadets who came out of the Prussian military academy against all opinions.

The latter's qualifications are also insufficient and he cannot convince the public. It is simply wishful thinking to make the army act like an arm.

At this critical moment, Landry Prome disappeared out of thin air. The leaderless Poles could only relieve their worries through meetings, but some things became more and more urgent.

For example, the number of Austrian Imperial troops far exceeded their expectations, and they were approaching them step by step.

The most desperate information is that the team sent out to bomb the railway was attacked by serfs on the way, so so far the railways between Krakow and the Austrian Empire are open.

However, the Austrian army was still moving very slowly because they did not know that the team sent by the Poles to destroy the railway failed.

After all, Franz had already received the news that the Poles had sent people to destroy the railway. Due to the rush, the letter was not detailed.

He couldn't even tell whether the Poles wanted to blow up the railway or create something centered on the railway.

For fear of an ambush or for safety reasons, Franz would first send troops to clear the site at each stop, and would refuse all invitations from local nobles and businessmen to stay in the heavily protected train carriage.

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

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

The so-called Austrian version of "attacking local tyrants and dividing their land" has been mentioned before, but it is more appropriate to describe it as looting or forcibly nationalizing land.

But now that the Poles know it, Franz will soon know it too. He was not in a hurry at all, he wished that the fire would burn as brightly as possible as long as possible.

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

It is said that the kind-hearted people of the British Empire shed tears every day, and even the indigenous people under its rule wished they could go to the European continent to support the Poles.
