The Yugoslav capital commander took a look at the telescope and gave a battle order to his adjutant. Five minutes later, an infantry battalion soldier charged from the front of the villa. The scratching gun lasted for just three or four minutes, and the area was completely quiet after the explosion.
The Yugoslav capital commander since a face of proud police chief.
Soon, the commanding attacking officer came back with the news of minor injuries and victory. His soldiers still held a seriously injured suspect, and the commander of the Yugoslav capital didn’t say much about letting his soldiers go back with the only one alive. The other four suspects’ bodies were left to the police chief and his hands to clean up the mess.
The police chief who left the Yugoslav capital army was a little confused. Instead of cursing the family, he let his hand comfort the families of the dead.
Less than half an hour after the arrest, the news of the arrest of the murderer spread all over Vienna. The citizens were incredulous and cheered when they saw the withdrawal of the army. It seemed as if they had won a decisive victory, but what followed was far from simple as people thought-trial, hanging and then punishing those behind the scenes.
After the arrest of the suspect, the martial law in Vienna was temporarily lifted, but the main roads leading to the outside world were still closely monitored by the Yugoslav garrison and the Royal Guards. All the trains entering Vienna had to be inspected carefully before entering the city.
The surprise trial was held in the Vienna Yugoslav capital headquarters in the afternoon. After roughly dressing the suspect’s wound, the Yugoslav capital commander asked him to bring a lot of torture equipment.
The whip served the man with clenched teeth.
The man was once in a coma when he was tortured with a soldering iron.
The man hesitated again and again after being lured by money, color and profit!
Before dusk, the Yugoslav capital commander entered the palace in high spirits with the results of the trial to meet the Austrian emperor. Later, he came out of the palace with a serious face and then returned directly to his Yugoslav capital headquarters. Since then, he refused to meet anyone on business, and even the Albert family came to celebrate his success, and the nobles were politely declined.
That night, the intelligence personnel of Germany, Russia and other countries noticed that the Sixth Army of the Empire stationed in northern Austria had a certain scale of mobilization, and about 10 infantry divisions were drawn from the station to Bohemia, and finally camped on the spot 5 kilometers away from the border of the Principality, but the Austro-Hungarian government did not indicate that this mobilization had taken place.
At the same time, the Imperial Sixth Army suddenly entered a state of secret martial law in the main barracks in Hungary and Bohemia, and officers and soldiers were on standby at any time, and no one was allowed to enter or leave the barracks.
It’s a night in Vienna and a night in peace, but the whole Austro-Hungarian Empire is full of hidden dangers.
Early the next morning, the central government of Austria-Hungary announced the results of yesterday’s tracing operation, and claimed that the only lucky murderer died last night because of his injuries. As far as we know, the assassin suspected that Serbia would be reunified. Austria-Hungary will investigate and search the Serbian occupied areas in order to catch the behind-the-scenes finger as soon as possible.
In the afternoon, the supervision department of Austria-Hungary received a report that the Hungarian nobles led the door? Lentz accepted foreign political bribes, and the total amount of 2000 million marks was remitted from the German central bank to a private account of the Swiss bank, which belonged to the Hungarian aristocratic leader? Rentz owns it
After a secret investigation, the imperial supervisory department quickly verified the situation and reported it to the Vienna court.
In addition, the secret police of Austria-Hungary monitored that the special envoy who arrived in Prague three days ago had returned to Berlin, while Olga, the general of the German Sixth Army, was still playing around Budapest and was sent by Damen? Accompanied by Luntz’s confidant Cheng, this information was also reported to the palm of the Vienna court at the first time.
On January 21, 1916, the day before the Austro-Hungarian Empire voted for the imperial candidate, leaders of Hungary, Bohemia and other countries gathered in Vienna. Everyone was expecting to vote the next day, but they didn’t expect that the night before Lebanon would be more strange.
That night, the 77th and 1st Light Infantry Regiments of Austria-Hungary and Scoop Cavalry Regiment stationed in the suburb of Prague jointly raided the Bohemian Palace in Prague, except for the head of the Bohemian Grand Duke in Vienna, and the main family members were under house arrest. By dawn, the whole Bohemia was under the control of the 6 armies loyal to the Austrian emperor.
On the same night, five senior generals of the Hungarian Sixth Army, including General Nohrlander, General Lasnik and Lieutenant General Stansted, suddenly disappeared, and the Hungarian Sixth Army was temporarily caught in a situation of dragons. In this case, the whole Hungarian can lift the secret martial law of each military camp the day before, and these troops will remain in a state where officers and men are not allowed to go out and outsiders are not allowed to enter until they get the order signed by the Austrian Emperor himself.
On the morning of January 22nd, Vienna declared martial law again.
The devil Chapter 36 The candle goes out
In 1916, Iraq’s optimistic and harmonious atmosphere ruled Europe.
In the first three weeks of January, according to the Washington Naval Treaty, Germany will transfer Nassau-class battleships, westfalen, Rhineland, large cruiser blucher and battle cruiser von? 110,000-ton warships of the Titanic were retired from active service in the navy, and the disintegration of these warships continued under the supervision of the joint observer mission of Austria-Hungary, the United States, Japan, Russia and Turkey.
For peace-loving people, another good news comes from the fact that the new queen of Russia, who spans six huge empires in Europe and Asia, began to reform the country after she ascended the throne, and the reform was directed at the bloated and inefficient army.
Disarmament 30 million!
This is the first command of Queen Di Anna I to the Russian Sixth Army. Regardless of whether disarmament can raise the combat effectiveness of this army to a higher level, the Russian Sixth Army still retains a huge number of 1.5 million after the reduction, but in the eyes of ordinary people, this is suspected to be a signal that Russia is far from the war.
In such a flat surface phenomenon, several European powers have come to a crossroads with uncertain future.
The large-scale demobilization and demobilization of the German Sixth Navy has been completed, and the number of the Sixth Army has been reduced from the highest of 3.5 million in wartime to 1.1 million, but the number of the Army has been reduced by less than 10%. The navy has been reduced from a maximum of 150,000 in wartime to 120,000. The tonnage of warships has been reduced by 150,000 tons, but the annual budget has been reduced by 20%. The army has been reduced from the maximum of 50,000 in wartime to 42,000 at present, and the number of aircraft has decreased by 30%, but the annual budget has increased by 50%.
On January 5th, Turkey built the new battle cruiser "Salonika" in the name of its navy in Blom, Hamburg? Foss Shipyard started construction of this new warship oil-fired boiler with a design tonnage of 1oooo tons. The designed maximum voyage will reach amazing endurance, and the main gun armor defense and structure with a diameter of 13 inches (35omm) 45 times in the sea will continue the consistent style of the German Navy-attaching importance to productivity, adopting small compartments, installing watertight doors and separating turret ammunition. The ship is expected to be completed in 25 months, but it is expected to be shortened to 2,120 at this time due to the reduction of the shipbuilding plan of the German Navy and sufficient labor force.
Although the "Salonika" was built by Germany on behalf of Turkey at present, many people predicted that it was a small trick of the Germans in the Washington Naval Treaty-Turkey has the quota of building five capital ships in the next decade, but the Turks’ strategy and economy do not allow them to invest so much money in naval construction. Therefore, the "Salonika" represents a German-made Turkish warship and is likely to be a new warship built by the German navy.
According to the annual plan of the Russian Sixth Army Command, Russia will cut 30,000 people, and the funds saved will not be transferred to political construction, but will be used to build an artillery factory, an aircraft research institute and an armored vehicle research institute. In addition, a new round of encirclement and suppression against the remnants of the national revolution is being actively prepared, which will be an excellent training opportunity for the newly reorganized Russian Guards. Because the top management of Queen Di Anna’s navy has only made small-scale adjustments, the investment in naval construction in the new annual budget of government departments has remained at a wartime level.
In January 1916, the 6th Army of Turkey made up 21 infantry divisions, 2 cavalry divisions, 33 independent infantry regiments, 17 independent cavalry regiments, 2 armored regiments and 7 flying squadrons, all of which were modeled after the 6th Army of Germany, and were heavily equipped with German equipment. In addition, the Turkish government assisted the German government in establishing "a large and medium-sized arms factory to produce German-made firearms, ammunition and light artillery". The Turkish navy has two fleets; the Black Sea and the Mediterranean Sea; with a total for 10 battleships and 57 small and medium-sized warships; and a medium-sized naval fleet with more than 20; 000 combatants and non-combatants. The newly-built Turkish Army’s 45 aircraft department imported instructors from Germany. At present, the German army has 12o pilots and 56o crew members.
The German-Turkish Coalition forces are still headed by Ollie, the confidant of the German emperor. After Lieutenant General Kahn commanded Africa to stabilize, the size of the coalition forces has not been reduced. At present, it includes the German Expeditionary Force, which consists of 35,000 combatants and 6,000 non-combatants, five integrated infantry divisions and a cavalry unit, with a total of more than 70,000 Turkish troops. These more than 100,000 soldiers are now stationed in the southern part of Turkish Iran, and when they are rested and ready for adequate supplies, the coalition forces will attack the south, which will still be controlled by the exiled British government in Pakistan and India, while the Sixth Army of Japan Sea is also preparing to attack British colonies such as Myanmar and India from north to
When the German-Turkish Coalition forces were ready to stay, the German Mediterranean Fleet was not idle. The scheduled project of Tunisia military port and fortress has been completed, from the investment of manpower, material resources and funds to the scale of port fortress, The equipment, the new stronghold, is the first in the Mediterranean. At present, only two ships, Mao Qi and Ge, are in service in southern Spain. The main force of the Mediterranean Fleet has been transferred from the port where it was previously docked in Gibraltar to the port of Tunisia. According to the Washington Naval Treaty, Hippel will command several warships in the Mediterranean Fleet. However, as these ships are included in the second batch of delisting and disintegration sequences, they are still in service. This includes the Italian battleships "Da Vinci" and "Julius", which were repaired and modified not long ago. Caesar and heavy cruiser Brouty, now renamed as William II, Heinrich and Thomas, William II and Thomas have crossed the Red Sea with oldenburg and Hindenburg and entered the Arabian Sea. They will cooperate with the German-Turkish joint forces to attack from the sea.
After the defeat, Italy lost a large area of territorial owners and naval capital ship, and the Sixth Army had to be reduced to a very low level, and it had to pay a large amount of compensation to the Austro-Hungarian Empire every year. Its national strength was declining and it was invaded and oppressed from time to time by the garrison of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. In five and a half years, thirteen workers’ strikes and seven peasant riots broke out in Italy. In the northern region occupied by the Austro-Hungarian Empire, more than 30 guerrillas were engaged in resistance movements.
Since France was divided into the southern and northern governments, the two governments have always claimed that they are legitimate. After the French government entered 1916, the northern puppet government held operations in Germany. They were trained by German instructors. The number of regular troops has reached 150,000, and their equipment has surpassed that of the southern French army. However, the fighting capacity and loyalty of this "puppet army" called by the French are not reassuring. So far, small-scale harassment activities have been carried out near the north-south boundary.
After the Gibraltar incident, the prestige of the Spanish royal family and government plummeted, and the revolutionary atmosphere in the country became more and more fierce. Even the army was shaken. Alfonso XIII had to seek help from foreign forces, but the German and Austro-Hungarian empires reacted coldly.
Austria-Hungary 6. The navy has not been greatly adjusted. According to politicians’ analysis, the Austrian emperor is in poor health and Austria-Hungary has different opinions on the future exhibition of the army. The annual budget of the Austrian-Hungarian army has not changed much compared with 1915, and the number of troops remains at around 1.2 million.
On January 22, 1916, the whole European focus came to Vienna, and the successor of Austria-Hungary will be elected today, which to a great extent realized that Austria-Hungary is the trend of European exhibition.
1o’clock in the afternoon. Franz? The command meeting hosted by josef i was held in the Vienna Palace Hall as scheduled.
Judging from the atmosphere in the hall, many people have learned about last night’s accident, especially the Grand Duke of Bohemia and the Hungarian aristocrat Damen? Luntz’s two distinguished family leaders look rather ugly to those who have little knowledge of the current situation.
When the Austrian emperor appeared in the public eye, people were surprised that the old emperor was so pale that there was no blood in his face. Even his walking pace was shaky, and his physical condition was much worse than that of a week ago.
People watched the emperor walk, sit down and speak in fear. His voice was so weak that his attendants had to repeat his words on the spot so that people could understand him.
"I have been blessed by the emperor for six spring and autumn years since I came to the throne. The Austrian emperors Hungary, Bohemia, Dalmaya, Croatia, Slovenia, Galicia and Rodomoria, Illyria, Lombardy and Venice have been working hard all the time, and I dare not neglect the establishment of the Austro-Hungarian Empire in my hands. This is the greatest pride of my life. However, the emperor prefers my heirs to call them to heaven early. Now I deeply feel that the Austro-Hungarian Empire will be the continuation of my life, so I will never allow anyone to betray it or split it!"
After saying this, the old Austrian emperor stared at the people closest to him-Austria, Hungary, Bohemia and other big families and nobles led themselves. Although they were nominal kings of these countries, the local affairs were in their hands and their cronies.
Looking at the emperor’s almost dry eyes, several nobles led him to look at him.
In a short time, the emperor’s eyes returned to their former gloom, as if he had just experienced a dead-end experience. His lips were hard and his attendants put their ears close to the past and then continued to convey them one by one.
"Imperial land strength is steaming. This is a fact that some foreigners don’t want to accept. No matter whether allies or enemies used to want to split, weaken or even perish, all kinds of dark means are around us! Only one candidate for the emperor voted to let me see clearly who is loyal and malicious in this world and who knows foreign countries clearly! "
In the hall, whenever there is one or more items mentioned by the Austrian emperor, it is not impossible to say that the palace and even Vienna are in the hands of the troops loyal to the Austrian emperor. Just because the Austrian emperor is kind and lenient does not mean that he will endure everything, it is not impossible to make an example at this extraordinary time of electing an emperor.
