The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 1697: Hungary II

Chapter 1697 The situation in Hungary (2)

What if the country is unstable? Naturally, it is to maintain stability. Of course, Earl Albany’s stability maintenance is not only to use violence to make the opponent submit, but also to solve the winter problem of most people, at least most Hungarians. Similar to the idea that the bourgeoisie wants to fight against the property of nobles and landlords, this time, Earl Albany intends to fight against the ideas of some big bourgeoisie, bourgeois radicals and some minorities! Of course, the so-called ethnic minorities are Romanians. After all, Slovaks, Croats, and Germans are now under the control of Austria, and it is impossible for the Hungarians to sweep the autumn wind!

Prime Minister Tisza did not agree with Count Albany’s proposal. In fact, he was very opposed to this. It’s not that the parliament could not pass this resolution. It was easy for the parliament to pass this resolution, because now the Hungarian Parliament is The big aristocrats and big bourgeoisie are in power, but what about this authorization? Really attack the already fragile Hungarian national power? !

Regardless of the outcome, after this storm, the opposition between the aristocratic class and other classes in society will become more serious! And it will consume the strength of the Hungarian nation! In this case, Prime Minister Tisza was really the opposite, but he also knew that even if he opposed it, some people would still do it. Moreover, Prime Minister Tisza can sit in his current position, which is also the result of the support of Earl Albany and others!

The talks ended in the silence of Prime Minister Tisza, which also made Count Albany see Tisza’s attitude clearly. Since the possibility of implementing this plan through the Hungarian government is not high, then there are certain things that must be done by himself. Up! Really think that those noble powers that have lasted for hundreds of years in the Kingdom of Hungary have no foundation? You underestimate them! These nobles are not only deeply rooted in Hungary, but also have very close relations with foreign forces! After leaving the prime minister's residence, Count Albany came to a villa of the Esterhazy family in Budapest, Hungary.

In this villa, Esterhazy Morris, an important figure in the Esterhazy family, received the leader of the Hungarian Independence Party!

"Prime Minister Tisza is still very hesitant. He is not clear about the difficulties we are facing and what needs to be done." Count Albany said. "Since he is unwilling to do it, then we must rely on ourselves, and in this turbulent era, it is absolutely impossible to do without weapons and troops."

"So, what's your purpose in coming here?" Morris asked.

"The army confronting the Romanians in Transylvania cannot be transferred, and a considerable part of the army and personnel remaining in Budapest is untrustworthy, and it is said that the British and French are also in some places. People do things, so their military strength should not be underestimated. We have to build an army of our own, and this army needs first-class weapons!" said Count Albany.

"So, you come to me? Want my family to pay for the military expenses and equipment?" Morris pressed forward slightly, forming a sense of oppression. "So, what are the benefits?"

"The next prime minister can be a member of the Esterhazy family! The government that has survived the crisis will have the right to pay off the debt, and before it is cleared, you and your family can get a part of the state-owned assets as collateral!" Earl Bernie sent a document.

"This is what you need." After reading the documents, Morris also took out a document and sent it to Count Albany. "These equipment is enough to arm two infantry regiments and an artillery battalion. This is the first batch of equipment. The rest will arrive soon."

"Awesome, really worthy of being the prince of the Habsburg dynasty! The methods are amazing, not only the Skoda rapid-fire guns, but also the standard machine guns of the Bavarian Legion." Count Albany said meaningfully, in that tone. The unidentified taste is very unpleasant.

Yes, the Esterhazi family has the title of Prince of the Habsburgs! Just as the blood and control of the Habsburg royal family are not limited to the Austro-Hungarian Empire, in fact, the noble family of NB in ​​this era also extended their tentacles to the entire Europe, and the Esterhazy family is the capital of Hungary. The top nobles, naturally so too!

This family emerged in the seventeenth century. As early as 1683, the eldest son of the family led the Hungarian cavalry to fight in Vienna and Turkey and won the title of Prince of the Holy Roman Empire. In the following years, the descendants of this family were even more Austria and Hungary play a pivotal role in the political arena. For example, the famous Austrian Marshal Pal Antar, Hungarian Foreign Minister Paul Anton III, and Croatian Governor Esterhazy Joseph are all from this family. . It can be said that this family has very important influence in Vienna and Budapest.

The economic tentacles of this family have even extended to foreign countries. For example, the Bavarian Kingdom now has a large number of their industries. At its peak, the family owns 1,200 square kilometers of territory in Austria, Hungary, Croatia, Slovakia and Bavaria has more than 40 manors, palaces and castles. Even according to history, after the Hungarian bourgeois revolution and the subsequent World War II, this family still holds a trust investment of 600 million euros, as well as the Esterhazy Palace and a castle in Austria~www. lightnovelpub.net~ is still a prominent family on the European continent.

Therefore, relying on strong economic power and intricate relationships, this family can obtain a lot of scarce supplies and a large amount of armaments for Albany and others from Austria and even Bavaria, and it is precisely because of this family that Count Albany dared One of the important reasons to take risks!

In fact, when the main military forces within the Kingdom of Hungary remained in the southeast of Transylvania and the Romanians were confronting, neither the nobles nor the radical bourgeoisie would be able to create a large-scale attack of hundreds of thousands of troops. How many people did Horti’s navy and the "National Army" used to control the entire Hungary by the great aristocratic bourgeoisie, who had subverted the Hungarian red regime in history? But only 50,000 people. Among them, there are only a few thousand elites.

And also in history, how many troops did the Hungarian Red regime send when it faced the Romanians after the hastily completed the integration of Hungary? There are only 50,000 people, and all the artillery together can only be 69.... So, don't look at the equipment given by the Esterhazy family this time is only enough to arm two regiments, but it has given Count Albany the confidence to solve the problem with force!
