Welcome to 19th-century Europe, where strength reigns supreme

To be honest, the equipment of the Italian army can be ranked among the top five in Europe. How can it achieve such a [-]-[-] situation when facing the Austrian army with worse equipment than its own?

Tina breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the telegram. Finally, she did not embarrass Prussia. Prussia's donation of kidneys was still of some value.

Vittorio finally calmed down and asked Garibaldi for help. There was no other way, Garibaldi could only take Vittorio, who almost rushed into the cafeteria, to fight again.

After Garibaldi came up, he immediately sent three infantry divisions to stabilize the front and let Alfonso advance forward. Don't retreat. Even if it is forced, I have to withstand it in a desperate battle.

After receiving the order, Alfonso immediately organized a new line of defense and successfully withstood several waves of small-scale attempts by the Austrian army. The situation on the southern front finally became clear.

Austria found that it seemed that it could not attack Italy, and the momentum of the Italian attack was not strong. Alfonso's troops had not moved for several days, so I might as well pull the troops back to fight Prussia.

Franz ordered the Southern Front to mobilize one-third of its troops to Bohemia. This made the generals of the Southern Front very angry. Damn it, did you make a mistake? Adjust it at this time?

Angry as hell, the emperor had to listen to what he said no matter how outrageous. The Southern Front could only mobilize [-] troops to go north to fight Prussia.

Compared with Austria's hectic situation, Prussia seems to be more at ease here. Prussia has invested [-] Prussian troops in Bohemia. As long as it can cross the natural chasm of the Sudeten Mountains, it will be smooth sailing and go straight to Vienna.

Moltke could only let the troops pass through the narrow valley directly into Bohemia, while the Prussian Second Army took the lead in passing through the valley and reached Theodonau.

Before the Prussian army arrived, the Austrian army had already made strategic arrangements. On the morning of May 5, the troops commanded by the Austrian general Mondel occupied the highlands near Traudonau, and the current Prussian army was also in Traudonau. Defenses were deployed in Nau's area, waiting for the follow-up troops to cross the mountains.

If the Austrian army could organize a favorable offensive at this time to launch an attack on the exhausted Prussian army, it would cause extremely serious trouble for Prussia. Moltke estimated that the Prussian army would have to pay a price of at least [-] people, but in the end Austria did not launch an attack because their tactical thinking was very backward. They believed that instead of launching an attack when they were not well prepared, it was better to wait until the subsequent large forces came up before attacking.

Moreover, Austria's mobilization speed is also slow. Their railways are already struggling to transport soldiers, not to mention the continuous supply of ammunition and food to the front line. The lifeline of the Austrian army is those two railways. They really cannot organize them effectively. attack.

But the Prussian army is not much better here. The Sudeten Mountains are like a fortress, and the roads inside are very winding. In this era, there is no such black technology as satellite maps. Purely hand-drawn maps will inevitably have errors. Prussian’s The General Staff was anxious to get the troops through the Sudeten Mountains quickly.

As a result, the Third Army and the First Army circled the Sudeten Mountains several times. Ron was confused when he looked at the map at the headquarters. This map was drawn by someone two months ago. In theory, there should be no The question is correct, but the actual situation is that this map is inaccurate and has certain deviations.

There was no choice but to send a telegram to the troops of the Second Army that had passed through, asking them to try to contact the troops of the two armies and find a way to bring the First and Second Army out.

After Manteuffel saw the telegram, everyone was dumbfounded. I didn’t even know how I got here. You asked me to take the two lost troops, and I brought a hammer?

But there was no other way. He could only try to call the First Army, which was the army commanded by Moltke. Moltke was a little confused when he saw the actions of the troops. He didn't know why the First Army was going in this direction. The direction he said That's right. The First Army was heading in the direction pointed by Moltke, but even if they couldn't get around, their generals would feel very uncomfortable.

The Third Army went around, but after passing through the valley, it went directly to Nahod. The Austrian army here collided with the Prussian Third Army before they could react. They had not received any information before. There was no news about the Prussian attack here, so they were not prepared. The Prussian sudden attack defeated them and occupied Nahod's position.

When the Austrian general Gablenz was retreating to the rear, he was successfully blocked by the Third Army. The Austrian army was unprepared when passing by and was caught off guard. In order to prevent the main force from being completely annihilated by the Prussian army, Gablenz had no choice but to choose Abandoning the vehicles to protect the commander, leaving behind one brigade of defenders, the main force bypassed the Prussian defense line and retreated to the rear.

In the end, the Prussian army annihilated the remaining brigade, but the main force of Austria ran back to the rear.

The Battle of Traudonau caused great losses to the Austrian army. They lost troops here and paid more than [-] casualties and dozens of cannons. However, they failed to stop the Prussian army. Instead, the two main attacking armies of Prussia were defeated. After passing the Sudetenland, the balance of victory began to tilt towards Prussia.

General Benedek, the commander of the Austrian Northern Army, seemed to be a little out of his depth. He found that most of the Prussian army had crossed the Sudeten Mountains and the situation was very dangerous. He immediately called up his reserves to attack in order to quickly stabilize the situation.

At this time, the most dangerous news reached the headquarters. The First Army led by Moltke and responsible for the main attack had crossed the Erzgebirge Mountains. Now the Austrian troops were besieged by Prussian troops from three directions. The First Army was in Ise On the west side of the river, they encountered an Austrian force. However, the Austrian army did not dare to defend along the Ise River. Instead, they fled all the way back.

At this time, Benedek summoned another [-] Austrian troops to the advancing direction of the Prussian Second Army to block the Prussian army. When the Austrian reserves met the frontline troops, the Prussian army immediately launched a powerful offensive to block the Prussian second army. The group army spent four days to buy time for subsequent reinforcements.

But when Benedek sent troops to block the Second Army, he suddenly found that he no longer had troops. He could only ask the headquarters, "Are there any soldiers left? We are in urgent need of manpower. Haven't the troops from the south arrived yet?"

It is clear that he still has [-] reserve troops on his troop establishment list, but now that he is in urgent need of soldiers to fill the front line, he can only go to the military headquarters, but the military headquarters has given all the troops to Benedek. what to do?

Then there are less than [-] people on the front line? What about the rest? Where have I gone with my two hundred thousand troops?
