Chapter four hundred and sixty-ninth thunder
"What?! A fleet coming from upriver?" When the dizzy Fedtaler heard the news, blood immediately surged into his throat.
At this time, any accident is fatal.
"How many men and horses are there?"
"No, I don't know. There are always dozens of ships." The scout judged that the men and horses on land still had certain capabilities, but judged that the size of the fleet exceeded his limit.
The fleet upstream can only be composed of Austrian troops. If they choose to appear today, they must have a spy within their ranks.
There was no luck in his mind, and Feidtaler knew that something bad was going to happen.
He forced himself to swallow the mouthful of blood. After all these years of planning, he never expected that something like this would happen at the last moment.
"Second brother, let's immediately bring the troops we can control to join the rear troops." Fedtaler did not hesitate. At this time, he could only trust his family.
Those who did not enter Bratislava were also led by their own family members. They controlled the five thousand troops first before making any calculations.
"Your Highness, the Austrians may not be here to harm us. Maybe they heard that the Poles had entered from the north, and then they wanted to take over this important border town in advance to ensure that they captured Bohemia. Today is just a coincidence.
?”
"There is no such coincidence in this world!"
I have to say that Feidtaler's level is much higher than that of his subordinates.
There was another noise, and some soldiers reported that a city gate near the Danube River had been attacked by the enemy. It was unknown how many people there were.
All I knew was that the enemy was coming fiercely, with several powerful spellcasters, and nearly a hundred people guarding the city gate, and they were defeated in just a few minutes.
"We must withdraw from here first and take control of the natural sea, sea and sky of our troops." His mouth was bright red and he said in a hissing voice at the top of his lungs.
He invested generations of family savings and funds allocated by Louis II into the Bohemian Legion, and has achieved certain results.
The officers at all levels have been replaced by reliable ones. As long as this force is brought to the Hungarian mainland and the disordered middle Danube plains, there is still much to be done.
But this time his knowledge caused him to implicate others.
A flash of green light flashed. The cousin who was talking to Feidtaler just now was turned into powder.
Another member of the Fedtaler family a little further away had a distorted face and was scared to death.
After a long period of lurking, Misrilla and Enxi had already figured out which two enemies were the greatest threat. Each of them defeated the two powerful enemies with one instant death spell.
These two men are not only stronger, they are also the right-hand men of General Federthaler.
"It turns out you two are the stinkers..." Fedtaler saw his comrade and brother lose their lives in the blink of an eye, and his heart suddenly broke.
He finally understood more or less what was going on in today's farce of conversion. It was absolutely impossible for the Ottomans to deal with him at this time. The only way to do this was because someone had tricked the envoy.
But several groups of messengers are obviously followers of Demo Gauguin, are they all fake?
"According to the order of the King of Hungary, we will attack the rebellion and only ask the culprits. Never ask for threats!" A righteous voice penetrated into Feidtaler's already dizzy head.
This voice was so familiar that when Feidtaler heard it, he could no longer hold back the pain and vomited it out.
"You? You old man actually betrayed me?"
He reluctantly turned his neck, which was in severe pain from internal and external injuries, and saw a scene that surprised him even more. The old man who had served his family for decades was actually a traitor?
Or is he the mastermind?
It was none other than the old general Kirkland who commanded his men to attack the last few guards of Feidetaler with a righteous look on his face.
He is the most important core figure in the entire Bohemian operation, His Highness the Mage Misrilla of "Zhengguo".
Although Misrilla hooked up with many people, she did not dare to reveal her identity. General Federtal had been running the business for many years, and if she casually brought people on board, sooner or later she would encounter a hardcore person.
The key is to control a key figure who is powerful and can surprise others.
This person is Mr. Kirkland.
Age can give people experience, but most people do not become morally noble as they grow older.
It was he who mobilized the city gate defense forces for Boss Sirica's action team so that the Austrians could defeat them one by one, and it was he who led his company of cronies to prevent Federthaler from reacting.
General Kirkland did not become conservative because of his age.
On the contrary, these more than seventy years of ups and downs in life have made him better able to see the signs of Feittal's failure. It is absolutely impossible to raise the flag of rebellion in Bratislava. It can only be made public in areas close to the Ottoman forces.
Rebellion.
After Sazastan met with him and agreed to a series of conditions to preserve his family, the old General Kirkland changed his camp again and became Ladislaus's new subordinate.
Of course, Misrilla's "persuasion" was also very effective.
"I am not a traitor, never have been." Kirkland said with righteousness. "You who colluded with the heretics and gave up the honor of the believers of the true God are the traitors, shameless traitors."
It was clear that he was gaining the upper hand and his troops had taken control of the square.
He also had powerful allies. In the space of a few sentences, the Austrians took control of another gate.
Having lost their leader and opportunity, the troops loyal to Federtal were obviously unable to regain control of the city when the Austrian army was already close at hand.
In fact, too many core members of the Fedtaler Group died here, and it is doubtful whether that force can maintain its persistence.
For Ladislaus, this was really not a difficult battle, and everything went according to plan.
When he led a large force to arrive from the land, the fighting in the city had basically ended.
Austria came out with all its strength this time, mobilizing more than 30,000 land and sea troops. The quantity and quality of its standing army were far superior to those of the Hungarian army. This was not a large army mobilized to deal with the mere Fedthaler Group, but a large army mobilized for the Ottoman Empire.
It is like a thunderous blow when placed on the head of a mere Bohemian careerist.
In addition, there are the same number of civilians, which is the lowest number even if the Danube river transport is available.
These people will obviously not be able to participate in the autumn harvest, and Austria will face the crisis of huge military expenditures and agricultural failure in the next year.
The newly prosperous trade market in Vienna will also be greatly reduced due to this war. Although more and more merchants from the German princes' territories in the upper reaches of the Danube River are coming to Vienna, due to the navigability, the trade with Hungary and Bohemia is still limited.
Activities are more prosperous.
Without this financial income, Ladislaus's life would be difficult.
This is not all Ladislaus's troubles, there are still people threatening his black financial resources.
"This is what you said, a victory that was determined in the temple." Odd Kessler's explanation of "victory determined by the temple" was not precise, but he chose a good time to speak.
made a request. "Your Majesty the Habsburg Highness, since Bratislava is already under your control, and you have always not allowed domestic drug trade. I would like to ask if the temple of His Majesty the Knight of Vision can no longer be used."
Are those experimental narcotics for sale?"
Ladislaus's "medical experiments" made Ode Kessler very unhappy. Obviously, this was a business method that Barbarossa did not like, although Ladislaus gave his ancestors a lot of help from the Church of God.
