Chapter 555: Rebuilding the Imperial Diet


It is undeniable that Alexander was a resolute man, and after making up his mind, Alexander immediately announced his plans to the nobles around him and the government officials of St.

Petersburg.

As Alexander had imagined, his idea of a conquest was met with great resistance, with almost everyone opposing Alexander's trip to Estonia, and even Alexander's mother being adamantly opposed to Alexander's trip to Estonia.

But Alexander was a stubborn man, in other words, no one but himself could change his mind, and in the face of the weeping mother and the opposing courtiers, Alexander said: "Do you want me to stay in St.

Petersburg for a long time, or let me fight the enemy on the battlefield with a bang!

Our Russia has shed too much blood, as a descendant of the Romanov family, I can't stand all this in front of me, this is a great cause that my ancestors have passed down to my hands, I must not watch Russia fall apart in my hands, the empire has suffered too much, as God's chosen emperor, I must end this suffering with my own hands, even if it is at the cost of the Romanov bloodline, I will not hesitate to do the same!

” What Alexander did not expect was that his words would win the support of the soldiers of the Guards, and when the nobles and officials bowed their heads and were speechless, the soldiers of the Guards both inside and outside the palace shouted "Ula!"

” "Listen, this is the cry of the soldiers, and this is also the cry of the Empire!

The soldiers fought for me, regardless of life and death, as the monarch to whom they were allegiant.

How can I be indifferent!

God is with the empire, God is with me!

” At the end of October 1791, Alexander decided to lead 3,000 soldiers of the Guards on a personal expedition.

And his destination is the Estonian frontline, and at this moment on the Estonian front, Bagration is leading the Russian army to fight to the death against the Kutuzov rebels day and night.

After Bagration's defeat of Kutuzov at Narva, the rebels entered the stage of total defense, and with the Estonian capital of Tallinn being capitalized, Bagration pushed the front to the Kilingjiname line, if all went well.

In the next month, Bagration will be able to regain all of Estonia.

But what made Bagration very unhappy was the news of the death of Paul I and Alexander's decree brought by Alexander's envoy some time ago, and Bagration knew that it would not do him any good to anger Alexander.

But after learning of the death of Paul I, Bagration decided to make his voice heard.

Paul I not only had the grace of knowing Bagration, but also had full trust in Bagration, and this trust was especially precious to Bagration.

It is too rare for a person to meet such a person who trusts him so much in his life.

That's why Bagration was so uneasy after learning of the death of Paul I.

After all, to him, Paul I was not only a monarch, but also his bosom friend and elder.

The death of Paul I made Bagration's heart very angry, and even Bagration wanted to raise an army to seek justice for Paul I, but Bagration knew that he could not do that, and once he did, he would not only lose the trust of Paul I in him, but also let himself be condemned by his conscience for the rest of his life.

So in such a situation, Bagration turned his grief into strength.

Several fierce attacks were launched against the rebels, and the front was advanced to the border area of Estonia.

The other side.

Kutuzov's attack on Bagration is also gnashing his teeth, but the current Kutuzov is not as good as before, and the repeated defeats not only consume Kutuzov's strength, but also make the morale of the rebels fall rapidly, Kutuzov knows that if he can't play a beautiful counterattack to improve morale, then his consequence can only be failure. ..................................

William looked at the information coming from all sides in his hand, and his mood was also very complicated at this moment.

Except for the Bohemian front, the situation in Prussia was good in all other theaters, but it was the Bohemian front line that decided the outcome of the war between Prussia and Austria.

Both sides invested a lot of forces in the Bohemian front, although the current Prussia is not at a disadvantage, and even after waiting for Dafilia to lead the army to join the Bohemian line, Prussia is still expected to defeat Austria, but the intelligence from Austria makes William not optimistic.

Austria had mobilized more than 50,000 troops throughout the country, and Hungary had contributed an additional 30,000 troops to Austria, bringing these troops together to more than 80,000.

Although Prussia also mobilized tens of thousands of troops, the huge losses of various divisions made all the mobilized troops replenish the divisions.

At present, the progress of the new two divisions that Prussia was preparing was very slow, and most of the young and vigorous soldiers who were rich in combat experience were scrambled by the divisions on the front, and the soldiers left were simply not enough to fill the space of the two divisions.

In addition, at the level of Europe as a whole, the Prussian-British alliance is not very optimistic.

Although the British and Prussians encroached on more than half of the French and Spanish colonies overseas, the British did not take advantage of the continent.

Spain has regained Gibraltar, according to intelligence that the Spanish government is already considering sending land forces to Europe to participate in the attack on the British, and on the French front, Napoleon's 70,000 French troops have also set off for the Netherlands, and soon a major war with the British European expeditionary force can break out.

As for whether the British could bargain under Napoleon, William's heart can be said to be very worried.

Although Napoleon's fate has changed, but some people are favored by God after all, looking at Napoleon's achievements in recent years, it can be said that the day of Napoleon's ranking among the first-class European generals is not far off, in this case, the British want to defeat Napoleon with not superior forces, in William's view, a bit hanging.

In the event of a defeat of the British army, the French could advance directly to the Dutch front, and once the Dutch were defeated, Prussia would be exposed to the French.

Once Spain really sent troops to the European continent to participate in the war, then it was impossible for Prussia to face the three enemies of France, Spain, and Austria, and if Prussia wanted to defeat these three powerful enemies with the strength of Prussia alone, it could be said that there was no need to think about it unless it was a golden finger.

But how can the golden finger be so easy to open, William only knows more history than his contemporaries, and understanding history does not mean that William knows the formula of TNT explosives in later generations, and even any glass and soap, William will not be able to make it, all William can know is some historical process and a little bit of weapons knowledge.

Some people are extremely envious of the time-travelers, believing that they have the power to rule the world when they return to ancient times, but the question is that no one will prepare an encyclopedia after knowing that they are about to cross over.

Fortunately, however, the British had not yet been defeated, and Prussia had not yet reached a desperate situation, and in such a situation, the defeat of Austria in the shortest possible time became a necessary condition.

Maximilian in Cologne had organized an army of more than 20,000 men, all of which were formed in imitation of the Prussian military system, and the two divisions of the Cologne army, William gave them the task of immediately moving towards the Dutch border, and at the same time monitoring the line of the Austrian Netherlands to prevent the French army or the Austrian army from crossing the border.

After the capture of Frankfurt by Prussia, Wilhelm also ordered the reorganization of the Holy Roman Diet, with Joel, a former member of the Imperial Parliament, taking over the post of speaker.

The first thing the Reconstituted Imperial Council did was to recognize Maximilian as the most legitimate and sole emperor of the Holy Roman Empire.

Later, the Imperial Diet declared Leopold II of Austria a "puppet emperor" and called on the entire empire to crusade against the puppet emperor.

I have to say that the performance of Prussia shocked the princes of the entire Main, at least those princes who had not been completely annihilated by Prussia had to send troops to join the newly established emperor under the coercion and temptation of Prussia.

Among them, Württemberg contributed 4,000 men, Hesse contributed 5,000 men, Baden and Berg each contributed 3,000 men, Westphalia also contributed 4,000 men, plus other fragmentary princes, the total strength of this imperial ** reached more than 20,000 people.

Of course, William did not expect this emperor to bring much benefit to Prussia, and the composition of this army has shown that this emperor is completely like a wall-to-wall grass.

Of course, at the moment, this emperor ** can still come in handy, after all, the existence of such an emperor ** shows that the princes of the Main River and even the princes of the Rhine have recognized Prussia's dominance of the Main River Basin, and for those princes with bad intentions, such an emperor ** is also a deterrent force.

In William's plan, the princes of the Main and even the Rhine were to be abolished, and the entire German region and even the entire Holy Roman Empire could only be ruled by one, and that was William!

Although Maximilian ascended to the throne of the emperor, he had already written the edict of succession when he was crowned in Cologne, and everyone knew who the throne would be.

It's not that William is not at ease with Maximilian, you must know that Prussia is strong at the moment, and Maximilian does not dare to turn over any waves, and the edict of succession is just a precaution.
