The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 1037: Deployment

Chapter 1037

As for, why bother with Hungary and Romania? This question is actually very simple. Is it impossible for the prince to allow Hungary to directly delimit nearly half of the territory, which is more than 200,000 square kilometers, as agreed by the previous Austro-Hungarian dual empire? It's not bad for these guys to think of it! If the time comes to split, the prince will naturally count as much as he can, and the prerequisite for the benefits is that Hungary is greatly reduced! They can't control some ethnic regions, and the way to weaken Hungary's strength is naturally to let them fight more!

Don't say that the prince did not give Hungary a chance to expand, we cooperate with you to fight Romania! We are down, but it's your business whether you can digest it, and if you die, you can't blame me! Therefore, the prince's idea is very simple, as long as the traffic flow, food and oil supply are guaranteed, the Hungarians are willing to do what they want. Anyway, no matter how you do it, as a country with a gross national product that is less than 60% as high as Bavaria, it would be unreasonable if you want to eat Romania, if something goes wrong!

Historically, after the Hungarians accepted the so-called national self-determination proposal, they thought it was enough to bring the Hungarian part of the original Austro-Hungarian dual empire to draw a line from Vienna. In fact, the Hungarian gang pattern Tucson broke. ! How could the Allies allow the existence of Hungary, which is a medium-sized power? ! Thus, after the war, Hungary only had more than 40% of its territory within the empire! It was sold decisively by the Allies. For the Allies, the so-called national self-determination also includes those ethnic minorities in Hungary! No more hugs with Austria to keep warm? Hungary is also the subject of liquidation!

In the eyes of the prince, the national issue is no less important than the military issue. What has the prince been doing for so many years? Apart from farming, all that is left is to buy off Czechs in Austria! Maintain a good relationship with the high-level, use profit to buy the middle-level and intellectuals, and at the same time use violent means to suppress the separatists. Now the Czechs are stable. Then, with the original Germans in Austria, the prince can guarantee that once the future is separated, Austria will The basic disk of the border will not change. As for the benefits, you can only use some tricks to make Hungary and the Balkan countries internalize!

What is the root of the rise of nationalism? One of the reasons is national self-determination, and the second reason is that the small country nearby makes trouble. And the third reason is that under the propaganda of intellectuals and the ruling class, the lower class believes that living independently will be better. Therefore, if you want to solve the problem of nationalism, you have to start with these three aspects, the first nationalism awakening, there is no way.... After all, once people agitate it is very extreme. Don't talk about adults, just go home and look at the bear kids in your own home.

As for the latter two, they can naturally be dealt with. The small independent country will be defeated, and it will be destroyed directly, so that they can not be relieved for more than ten years! This is how the Austro-Hungarian Empire dealt with Serbia. As for the latter, in fact, as long as the Serbs in Austria realize that their lives are much better than their poor relatives next to them. Over time, civilian standardism will gradually replace nationalism. There are also examples of this. For example, after the five Middle East wars, the oil tyrants in the Middle East no longer care about Palestine. Earlier, when Egypt took back its lost territory in the Fourth Middle East War, it stopped looking for Israel. To put it bluntly, nationalism is nothing more than a country that cannot improve the quality of life of the people after reunification. It's just a stimulant!

Therefore, in this war, the prince's principle for the nations and regions that belong to Austria or may join Austria in the future is to maintain vitality as much as possible. As for the other? For example, in Hungary, which tends to be very divided, how you like to toss and toss.

The guidelines are resolved, then it is time to make specific tactical arrangements. It is not an easy task to mobilize the forces of the entire 14 divisions and subordinates. Especially, the prince and prince do not know when Russia will launch an offensive. . Everything needs to race against time. The 2 divisions originally deployed near Lviv can quickly enter the fortress area, and then the 3 Czech divisions and 1 Bavarian division in the Bohemia region can also quickly arrive through the railway line fully loaded. This is the first wave of strike force that can be mobilized within 10 days. And these are ordinary infantry divisions.

And I want to transfer 8 divisions including 1 breakthrough division and 3 rapid divisions from Germany to the westernmost part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire... This matter is more troublesome. Even with the relatively complete railway network in Austria-Hungary, it would be troublesome to transfer these troops in a short time. After all, there are a lot of heavy equipment such as tanks in the breakthrough division and the rapid division. Chariots, artillery, and ammunition must travel by rail, which is nothing to say, and the wagons used by these troops are probably a very disturbing figure. As for more than 100,000 people, I am afraid it will be even more difficult to want to pass.

Really think that if you transport people over, everything will be fine? It's not that easy, UU reading www.uukanshu. Com because the prince and prince suddenly received a piece of information when they specified the battle plan. According to aerial reconnaissance, they found that this time the Russians planned to gather in a lot of positions and scattered. The staff can't figure out the direction of the opponent's attack, so they can't make effective preparations. After seeing the news, the prince felt a sense of deja vu!

"It must be Borusinov who specified this plan!" the prince said in his heart, because this plan is very close to a battle named after him in history! This battle, which claims to have defeated the two empires in one fell swoop, is known for its multiple strikes and lightning strikes! (The Austro-Hungarian Empire was hit hard, and Russia exhausted all its strength in this blow!)

And this time? The same is true. At present, more than a dozen Russian cavalry divisions have been found on the front line. According to internal intelligence, these cavalry divisions are completely different from the cavalry divisions at the beginning of the war. These cavalry divisions rely more on rifles, machine guns and rapid-fire guns. Fight, not Cossack's spear and saber! That is to say, in theory, these cavalry have strong maneuverability while also having strong firepower, and the problem becomes serious when these cavalry expand linearly!
