Chapter 252 The Iron Triangle of Asia, Europe and Africa
As Franz expected, no big noble would support such a foolish move. Similarly, ordinary people have not reached the point where they cannot survive, and they do not want to participate in such an action that is doomed to fail from the beginning.
The future described by Kossuth, in which every Magyar can live on an equal footing, obviously cannot move other ethnic groups in Hungary, and even those foreign ethnic groups should have been expelled and enslaved.
The so-called "Hun Legion" did not have the record of their ancestors, and it was difficult to take advantage even when facing untrained German immigrants.
When facing the dragoons led by Albrecht, they were defeated in a row and were beaten everywhere, without the strength to fight.
These people are not good at fighting, but they are quite good at wreaking havoc. "Hun" is the whip of God. How can it be done without killing some people? Some experts even put forward the idea of cultivating murderous energy.
Then the Hungarian peasants and serfs living in the countryside suffered, but the "Huns" who did such things had no sense of guilt at all. Most of them did not think that they were of the same race as those serfs.
Kossuth was also of noble origin, and his main supporters were also single-clothed nobles and urban nobles.
As for the life and death of those serfs, since he did not participate in the massacre, he naturally had no knowledge. Although Kossuth was elevated to the same level as Mandela and Gandhi in later history, as one of Hungary's supreme rulers, he participated in and planned countless massacres against ethnic minorities.
"Angel of Hungary" Kossuth, "Light of Africa" Mandela, and "Mahatma" Gandhi were once promoted by the United States as the three greatest nationalists in human history.
The glorious deeds of this group of people, "Mahatma" Gandhi, as the founding father of India and the founder of "non-violent non-cooperation", was "shot by Hindus" during the "Partition of India and Pakistan".
"Light of Africa" Mandela, "Tears Behind Bars", "I Resigned Looks Like Washington", "After Death Floods", "Black Lives Matter", "Mandela Effect".
"Hungarian Angel" Kossuth, "The Purification Agreement Is Signed", "I ran away, but not completely." "A contract worth three million francs", "About the fact that he boasted about American freedom and ended up causing discomfort to abolitionists and being sprayed all over him." ”, “The tutor commented sharply, he is not innocent. 》.
Moreover, due to the impact of the "Reichstag Fire", the power of Hungary's "rural aristocracy" has been severely weakened, and the few brave men are a joke in front of the regular army.
The dragoon regiment that Franz lent to Albrecht was not useless. Everyone knew that they were the future emperor's personal soldiers, and in the future they could at least work in the Forbidden Army.
If you are lucky and become a colonel, you will become a local tyrant, and you can become a general or marshal without any upper limit.
But if he becomes a deserter, even if the Grand Duke and the Military Law Society let him go, his family will not allow such a big stain to remain in the world.
Archduke Karl also sent his own guards to Hungary. Although father and son were at odds, it was impossible to say that an old father of an ancient family was not worried about his eldest son.
Although this guard looks similar to the guards of other royal princes, it is actually composed of veterans who have experienced many battles, and there are even many retired officers.
(In fact, the size of the entire Austrian Empire’s private guard rarely exceeds 200. The Grand Duke of Tuscany’s guard only has 200 people, and Archduke Karl’s guard has a total of 2,000 people. However, it does not exceed the limit because the Austrian Empire has strict regulations on noble private soldiers. There is no limit on the number of guards.)
After half a month of fighting, more than 10,000 horse bandits were killed and captured.
Faced with such two monster legions, the Magyars are not fools. They look for soft persimmons if they can't chew the hard bones. There are also many "horse bandits" raised by the nobles who are also fishing in troubled waters.
All promotion of Magyarism has now become a tool for profit.
The internal fighting among the "horse bandits" made Franz very happy, and he was eager to use this to continue to weaken Hungary's strength.
But Albrecht couldn't sit still. He was a general who advocated offense, and training militiamen was not his specialty, let alone what he wanted.
Albrecht's initiative took everyone by surprise. Experienced scouts first went to check on the spot, tracked and locked the target, and then a large group of people arrived to launch a surprise attack.
This new type of rodless spin rocket is much more convenient than the previous model and can be carried directly by soldiers without the need for a carriage.
This is simply a doomsday scene for those horse bandits who want to resist in their own manors.
Countless rockets flew into the houses in the manor from all directions, and the wooden buildings quickly caught fire. At first, some people tried to put out the fire, but soon they discovered that this was no ordinary fire. Those who tried to put out the fire all turned into firemen.
The fireman ran through the house, igniting more flammable materials, and the constant explosions were destroying the building structure of the house.
Occasionally, some firemen tried to escape from the house, but they were quickly killed by soldiers outside.
When the local serfs discovered that the attackers seemed to have no ill intentions towards them, they gathered around to watch the grand fireworks.
At this time, someone will explain to the Hungarian serfs in the local language that the people in the house colluded with the horse bandits to kill civilians and passing business travelers. They were all guys like Countess Bathory with human faces and animal hearts.
The story of Countess Bathory, the famous Hungarian vampire countess, was widely circulated due to previous attempts by some Magyar nationalists to portray her as a national hero in Hungary.
It's just that anyone with a normal mind would not think of her as a national hero, but as an out-and-out vampire countess.
Traditionally speaking, the only two vampires in European history should be Gilles de Rais, a French marshal during the Hundred Years' War and a follower of Joan of Arc, and Countess Elisabeth Bathory of Hungary.
However, both countries refused to admit their fault. Later, a novel in 1897 described Romania's national hero, the famous Impaler, as the ancestor of vampires.
Since then, with the continuous fermentation of novels and movies, people have finally forgotten this period of history, but the only vampire in Eastern Europe in this era was Countess Bathory.
The serfs immediately understood this, and they all talked freely about how weird, cruel, and often blasphemous the nobles and the people around them were.
Soon, the soldiers became very angry after hearing the local people's exaggerated remarks, which further confirmed the "justice" of their actions at this time.
The evil "vampires" have been eliminated, and all that's left to do is divide the spoils. But since a fire burned down the house, the soldiers didn't know what else to loot.
These people really look down on those wheat, flour, farm tools, etc. He wanted to snatch a girl, but the Grand Duke was following him, so he simply announced that everything would be divided among the serfs.
