Valkyrie Europa

Chapter 286 Learn to cook with me
Linz City is a big city, although it is not comparable to the capitals of big countries such as Paris and Berlin, but it is much larger than the Toulon City where Zhang Ang stayed at the beginning.

Here is the largest city in northern Austria. It is located at the junction of Germany, France, and Switzerland, with convenient transportation, busy trade, developed economy and a large population.

Zhang Ang brought the remaining 600 people to the outside of Linz City, and began to prepare to enter the city.

Of course, it is too obvious that more than 600 people appeared at once. In order to prevent unnecessary attention, Zhang Ang divided them into 12 teams, led by their respective team leaders, and entered the city at different times. After the team members settle down, they will meet Zhang Ang again.

After dismissing everyone, Zhang Ang entered the city of Linz alone.

Everywhere, the first thing to do, of course, is to collect information!

After all, Zhang Ang was still very puzzled by the cause of the war on the battlefield. Why did France go to Austria to fight against Germany after paying such a high price?Even if you want to expand the country, why not take down Switzerland first?Let Austria border on itself first?Do you have to cross a country and do such a wasteful thing?Also, what good would it do for Austria to be independent?
Following the old method, Zhang Ang walked into a lively tavern.

This tavern is very big, and it happened to be noon, and it was almost full of people, noisy, and it looked very lively.

It is not necessary for Zhang Ang to inquire, most people are discussing this war.

After finding a seat and ordering another glass of ale, Zhang Ang began to listen carefully to their discussion.

"Hey, you said it was fine, why did you fight the war? Wasn't the old life bad?"

"It's not that we Austrians want to fight, but those French guys provoked it! Who wouldn't want to live a peaceful life?"

"Yes! Those French guys are really sick! Okay, help us to be independent!"

"That's right, that's right, I think Deutsche has treated us very well. It was tense for a while when it first merged ten years ago, but it has been pretty good since then. There is no tax increase, and there are some subsidies."

"That's right, we are members of the same ethnic group. Although we have separated and reunited several times, it's all our own business. Why are these French guys making trouble!"

"Well, if the Kaiser is cruel and oppresses us Austrians, we will naturally start a war and become independent, but we are living well now. Is there any difference if we are independent or not?"

"Of course they won't pay in vain. Hundreds of thousands of troops have been transported over thousands of miles to fight. How could it be possible to fight for nothing? It must be beneficial."

"Yes, I heard that after the war, the new Grand Duke Louisa will marry their French Emperor Napoleon, and the two countries will be one family by then."

"Who the hell wants to be a family with them! I have never been to France, and I don't know much about the Emperor Napoleon, but this Grand Duke Louisa, I just don't know what kind of virtue her father is? Now she She sold her lust, invited the French to support her, and made Austria independent, who knows how many benefits she promised behind her back?"

"Yeah, a marriage can mobilize hundreds of thousands of troops? How is it possible! At that time, we Austrians will not be required to pay those benefits? Maybe we will become vassals of this France! Slaves! Let them oppress! Exploit! "

"Hey, what's the use of talking about it now? I think it's better for Germany to win in the end, defeat those Frenchmen, and then drive away that unknown Grand Duke Louisa. It would be great to go back to the past."

"Yeah, although Germany can't be said to be very good, at least everyone is a family hundreds of years ago, and they are all Germans. No matter what happens, it won't be too bad. But if the French control Austria, who knows what happens?"

"Anyway, I don't want to be a Frenchman, whoever wants to be whoever wants to be! I'm single, and if the Frenchman really wins, I'll swim to the other side! Be a German, and I won't be so mad again!"

"Of course you can run away by yourself. How can we run away with families and property? Sigh, I hope Grand Duke Luisa won't be as cruel and incompetent as her father."

"Hehe, Ferdinand's daughter, how could it be better? When she was driven away, didn't she have any resentment in her heart? After wandering around the mainland for so many years, did she have any resentment? She can betray the country and invite the French , can’t you take revenge on everyone?”

"We are all her people, what is she revenge for? Taxes? Fines? Killing?"

"Who knows, anyway, if a woman is in power, it's unreliable at first glance! I don't know how dirty it is behind the scenes!"

"It's better for everyone to say a few words less. Those French guys are still collecting supplies in the city and haven't left. Are you not afraid that they will come to your door?"

"Fuck you! This is our Austrian land! The Germans are nothing but the French, it's not their turn to be arrogant! The older generation of Austrian soldiers who have been disarmed and returned to the fields are not dead yet!"

"That's right! If the Grand Duke Louisa and the French are acting recklessly, we Austrians are not vegetarians either! Rebuild the army at that time! Drive them all away!"

After listening to the discussion of the people in the tavern for most of the day, Zhang Ang also had a certain understanding of the current situation in Austria.

Most people don't have a good impression of the newly succeeded Grand Duchess or the French, but many people have a sense of belonging to Germany. It seems that Germany has done well in Austria in the past ten years.

If Germany wins this war, then Austria will probably be re-incorporated into Germany and become part of it, depending on the will of the people.

And if France wins, it will take a lot of effort to persuade everyone to let Austria belong to France or become a vassal state of France, and it may take several years.

From this point of view, it is not too difficult to establish an organization, mobilize the Austrians to oppose France, and even form an army to attack the French.

But it is a bit more difficult for them to deal with Germany.

In this case, we can only establish a purely independent faction, advocating the independence of Austria, which is neither controlled by France nor merged into Germany, but is an independent country as before!

As for the leadership of the country after independence, Grand Duke Luisa is obviously unpopular, and Adolf will be the top one at that time.

It's just that it is a bit difficult to succeed on this road.

After thinking hard for a long time and sorting out his ideas, Zhang Ang started to walk to the square in the center of the city, where he and several captains met.

When they came to the square, the 12 surviving team leaders had already arrived.

"How is it? Has everyone made arrangements?" Zhang Ang asked directly.

"It's all arranged."

"As long as you have money, no one will care about your identity. It's easy to settle down."

"Yeah, no one here knows us, I just say our mercenaries."

"Chief of Staff, tell me, what shall we do next?"

Hearing what his subordinates were talking about, Zhang Ang waved his hands and said, "Don't rush to act. Many comrades have been injured along the way, and everyone is exhausted. Let's rest for three days before talking."

"What about three days later?" Someone couldn't help asking.

"Three days later" thought for a while, Zhang Ang replied: "Three days later, everyone gather together and learn how to cook with me first."
