18th century total war

Chapter 305 Long Live Austria

"President Allen, we don't understand, why continue to maintain the Holy Alliance?
The French wantonly encroached on Hungary and Transylvania in the Balkans, but we are desperately resisting the combined attack of the Russian Empire and the Kingdom of Prussia.

In the face of the olive branches submitted by the Russian Empire and the Kingdom of Prussia, our Ministry of Foreign Affairs does not make any statement. Why is this?
Why use the future of the Austrian Republic to fight for the interests of the French? "

"Yes, why is that?
The Republic of Austria belongs to the Austrians, and we cannot shed the last drop of blood for the interests of France just because you are French! "

"Stop the war, we want peace!"

…………

Allen looked at the representatives of the people in the audience, his eyes gradually became cold.

If it weren't for the isolation of the Presidential Guard in the middle, this group of people would have rushed forward and used violence to get rid of him, the 'French President'.

Since the outbreak of the Fourth Anti-French War, the Republic of Austria has been losing ground in the face of the Kingdom of Prussia and the Russian Empire. More and more Austrian families have their relatives and friends died on the battlefield. The voice of peace in the Republic of Austria It got higher and higher, and until today, representatives of the people have coerced a large number of citizens and directly attacked the presidential palace!
Allen didn't answer the questions of the people's representatives who were at the forefront, but turned to look at his Minister of Police.

"Minister of Police, don't you have a reasonable explanation for this situation?
What about the police force you lead?
Oh my god, I actually saw people in police uniforms among the protesters, what a 'good news'! "

The Minister of Police bowed deeply to Alleyne and apologized: "Your Excellency, I am very sorry that I failed to do my job well. I came here to formally report the serious mistakes in my work and take the blame to resign from my current position.

I am ashamed to continue to stay in the Republic of Austria as Minister of Police.

This is the will of the Austrian people, who oppose the rule of His Excellency the President, including the police.

After all, the police are also part of the people, they are not fighting against the French, but they do not want the blood of their loved ones to be wasted meaninglessly in the fourth anti-French war..."

After hearing this, Allen laughed angrily: "Haha!
You are really a minister of police who does his duty for the people!
But, are you worthy of your loyalty? "

The Minister of Police did not join the demonstrators outside, naturally because he had been enlightened by Li Wei's administration.

Therefore, the Minister of Police immediately understood who the "loyalty" in Elaine's mouth referred to.

A ferocious look immediately appeared on the face of the Minister of Police, as if there was a serious contradiction between his heart and his loyalty. However, the horror of the total war system is far from being able to be resisted by a single person's will. This struggle quickly disappeared, and the police The minister bowed his head guiltily and replied:
"Your Excellency the President is right, I am sorry for my loyalty."

After finishing speaking, under the shocked gaze of Allen, he took out his own gun and aimed it at his chin, and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

There was a bang, and a few drops of the police minister's blood sprayed on Aileen's cheeks. Aileen widened his eyes, reached out and wiped off the blood on his face, and looked at the horrific police minister who fell to the ground. corpse.

Did the other party really commit suicide out of loyalty?

"The Austrians cannot continue to shed blood for the French, we want freedom, we want true equality and republic!

Long live Austria!
for freedom! ! ! "

boom!bang bang bang...

The slogan outside was suddenly raised, and soon there was a gunshot!

The first shot was obviously made by a self-made shotgun, and the subsequent uniform shots were the return fire of the presidential guard.

Allen walked towards the balcony with an ugly face, but was stopped by one of his presidential guard generals.

He persuaded Elaine very seriously and responsibly: "Your Excellency, the demonstrators outside have completely lost control, and it is easy to be shot by the mob if you show up at this time.

Please rest assured, Your Excellency, we will do our best to suppress this riot. Your Excellency only needs to decide how to deal with those mobs. "

The corner of Elaine's mouth twitched, took a deep breath, and roared without any disguise: "Kill all these rioters who betrayed His Majesty Li Wei!
In the Republic of Austria, whoever dares to stop me from being loyal to His Majesty Livy is our life and death enemy! "

"Yes, Your Excellency the President!"

The general snapped his heels together, his tough military boots made a crisp sound, and raised his right arm at a 45-degree angle as a military salute.

This military salute, popular in the French Wehrmacht, was also brought into the Republic of Austria by the Presidential Guard.

Urgent whistles sounded one after another in the city, and several Austrian citizens rushed to the clock tower frantically and sounded the alarm.

However, even though the demonstrators were well prepared, they were not facing the vigilant regular army.

Captain Joulton, who was resting in the barracks, suddenly received an order from above, began to gather his subordinates, and drove into the streets of the city.

It was an orderly attached to the Presidential Guard who came to give the order.

This is not an uncommon situation in the Austrian Republic. As Captain Joulton of the regular army of the Austrian Republic, he has long been accustomed to the fact that the Presidential Guard exists as a 'higher army'.

Of course, Captain Yeulton also admired the combat effectiveness of the Presidential Guard. Like the crazy French guys, they dared to step onto the battlefield carrying explosive bags and rush towards the enemy!

Based on this alone, Joulton knew that he and his subordinates would never be able to do it.

Joulton, who entered the city street, soon encountered a large group of people armed with various 'furniture', crowding together and walking forward.

Joulton looked at many of his familiar neighbors, and couldn't help shutting his mouth to let the soldiers under his command fire. He looked at the crowd suspiciously, and suddenly shouted: "Master Desen, why are you also in the mob crowd?" , do you know, this is treason!
Come home quickly, everyone, and don't do this dangerous treasonous move. "

Joulton looked at an old man he was familiar with and shouted loudly.

Uncle Desen is an old blacksmith who watched him grow up. Although he is not a relative, he is better than a relative.

Joulton is no presidential guard brainwashed by the barracks, he has feelings of his own.

Not only Joulton, but many of his officers and even soldiers recognized people they were familiar with from the crowd, and some even saw their relatives!
At this moment, Joulton knew that even if he gave the order to fire, no one would pull the trigger.

"What exactly is going on?

Why did we receive orders to suppress our relatives and friends? "

"Captain Joulton, President Allen, that Frenchman, wants to take the Austrian Republic to be buried with the French. All three of my children died on the battlefield of the Fourth Anti-French War. We cannot continue to obey the Allen government. order to continue this war that does not belong to the Austrians!

Even the rule of the Habsburg dynasty is not as brutal as the government of Elaine! "

The crowd, who were regarded as mobs, did not rush forward. They kept shouting the reason for their gathering, accusing the Aileen government of injustice and traitorous behavior!
After the Fourth Anti-French War broke out, the Austrian people realized that they had been completely deceived by the Alleyn government.

The Allen government is not the regime of the Austrian people at all, but the regime of Li Wei's lackeys!
At this moment, a group of Presidential Guard soldiers suddenly came up behind Captain Joulton, and the leading officer shouted to Joulton in a cold tone: "Captain Joulton, carry out the mission you have received, and conduct a thorough investigation on the mob in front of you." Suppress it, or you will be shot as a traitor!"

"Conderson, are you crazy?
Among those people was your old father, and you let Captain Joulton shoot and suppress him! "

Yolton's adjutant asked with a surprised look on his face.

The person who was replaced by Condeson was the leading officer of the presidential guard. After hearing this, his face remained calm as usual, and he retorted in a blunt tone: "In the face of national justice, the identity of a traitor cannot shake my loyalty. !

For Austria, I am willing to kill relatives righteously! "

Conderson's old father suddenly stood up at this moment, mocking himself to everyone: "Let everyone see a joke.

After my son came back from France, he seemed to be a different person. I suspect that his soul has been replaced by the devil, even though his appearance is exactly the same as my Conderson.

Conderson, if you want to prove your loyalty, shoot me. "

Conderson's father opened his hands and walked towards Conderson unsuspectingly.

And Conderson didn't even look at his old father, but turned to Captain Joulton and his party and warned for the last time: "If you don't fire again, I will execute you as traitors!"

"Kanderson, you unfilial son, look at your old father. Did you abandon your own family just to be loyal to Alleyne?"

After hearing this sentence, Conderson nodded slightly and replied: "Very well, I know your choice.

Everyone is here, take aim! "

The presidential guard in front of Conderson's old father suddenly formed two rows of guns. The first row half-knelt on the ground and the second row stood, raising their muskets.

Captain Yelton's soldiers hurriedly turned around and turned their guns towards the people.

After Captain Joulton saw this scene, he looked at the familiar faces in the crowd, and his expression suddenly became firm.

He shouted to Conderson: "I'm sorry, I can't shoot at my familiar friends. No matter what the direction of the Austrian country, my guns will not be aimed at my own people!"

As soon as Joulton finished speaking, the crowd burst into cheers: "Long live freedom!
Long live Austria! "

Conderson slammed down his command knife and ordered in a cold voice: "Fire!!!"

bang bang bang...

With the sound of the salvo, Conderson's old father was the first to bear the brunt, and was beaten into a sieve on the spot, and Captain Joulton's troops who were closer also fell several people!
"Everyone fight back, kill these lunatics who even slaughtered their own relatives!"

Captain Yelton waved his command knife and shouted loudly.

However, the presidential guard on the opposite side is too close, and they naturally know how to achieve the most efficient results at such a short distance.

Seeing Conderson looking over, five infantrymen came out of the queue. They skillfully lit the explosive packs behind them, and the rest of the infantry quickly turned around and retreated.

Without waiting for Captain Joulton's troops to fight back (the turn of the battle was so sudden that they had no time to fire a volley), the five infantrymen suddenly rushed into the crowd of Captain Joulton's team with lit explosive packs on their backs and bayonets pointed out.

Boom boom boom...

After five violent explosions, Captain Yelton was knocked to the ground by a shock wave in the distance.

When he stood up again, the formation of his troops had already been torn apart, and many soldiers were still stunned by the shock of the self-detonation of the infantry guards, with dull faces.

Even the soldiers of the regular army were like this, not to mention the ordinary mobs. At some point, the slogans of "Long Live Austria and Long Live Freedom" never sounded again.

However, Condeson's team would not give the enemy a chance to breathe. With the sound of charging, before the smoke cleared, grenades fell from the sky one after another!

First use self-destruction tactics to disrupt the enemy's formation, so that the enemy cannot shoot a volley of guns, wait until the enemy's formation is blown up, and then rush up to bombard a wave with grenades. This is the latest street fighting tactic of the guard infantry.

Cruel but highly effective.

Captain Joulton, who was already in a daze, was sent directly to God by a series of subsequent grenades...

This bombing was more lethal than the first time, because the guard infantry could keep throwing grenades until all the grenades were consumed before rushing up with bayonets.

When the guard infantry rushed up, not to mention the 'rebellious' Austrian regular army, even the mob crowd dispersed one after another.

Such a tragic battle had too much visual impact on the mob.

Conderson stepped on Captain Joulton's body, spat, and mocked in a cold voice: "The trash traitor, with this level, dares to betray President Allen, beyond his control!"

With a bang gunshot, Conderson's body trembled, and he fell to the side without saying a word.

On the window of a nearby building, a woman with tears in her eyes slowly put away her musket and began to load ammunition.

"Jolton, I'll see you in heaven soon."

This woman is Joulton's new wife. She witnessed the death of her lover, and killed Conderson, the murderer, with the steps Joulton had taught and the musket used for hunting together.

After the gunshot rang out, it immediately attracted several infantry guards to fight back, and this young woman is not a real soldier, how could she know how to dodge?
Under the aim of several muskets, he was quickly shot and fell from the window.

The whole city was weeping and crying under the ruthless suppression of the presidential guard. There were too many human tragedies going on at this moment, and Allen, who led all these, was writing a letter to Levi in ​​the presidential office to report the incident!
