In the long run, it would not hurt him to cooperate with Dessau, who represented a huge political force, and Dessau, who represented a powerful force in the Prussian military, and the combination of the two would not allow even William to take action lightly against this huge force.
But Dessau also knew that William did not allow the military to participate too much in the domestic political game, so in the military reform, William also purged a group of unsightly guys.
In short, for Dessau, now his mood is entangled, although he expressed his support for Locks, but it does not mean that Dessau is ready to do his best to support Locks, in a word, the situation is not clear now, there is no problem for Dessau to wave the flag behind his back, but it is undoubtedly difficult for him to rush to the front line.
But now there is no room for Dessau to hesitate anymore, if Dessau is not ready to help Locks, or even ready to tell the Hohenzollern royal family, then it is obvious that Locks will definitely not let Dessau go, Dessau is certainly not afraid of Locks, but if Locks goes crazy, even William may not be able to please Locks.
Your Excellency Elstner, you can send someone back to report to Prime Minister Locks, and say that I agree to support his actions, but I can only send a maximum of five hundred soldiers to help him in this matter, and I can't do anything about the rest!
In Dessau's view, sending an army of 500 people to help Locks and his greatest efforts is his greatest effort, no matter how many troops are dispatched, they will definitely not be able to hide people, and at the moment these 500 people may not be able to hide the eyes of the royal family, now Dessau can only hope that Locks can win the support of Buel as he said in his heart, after all, only Buel can control the royal intelligence agencies, so that those spies who are staring at the boss in the country will not report the situation here to the Hohenzollern royal family.
Hearing Dessau's answer, although Elstner had also seen the tangled expression on Dessau's face before, but after all, Dessau had agreed to Locks's request at the moment, and the army of five hundred people was definitely not a lot, and the royal guards guarding Anna this time were only two hundred in total.
The Mission's own hundred men were undoubtedly in the hands of Locks, and with the five hundred men sent by Dessau, it was clear that Locks' side was three times as many soldiers as Anna in terms of the number of soldiers.
And Louise was able to send a secret line to protect Anna secretly, didn't Locks send someone?
Although the Kingdom of Prussia had abolished slaves, there was no shortage of dead men in families like the Locks family, in order to be able to complete the fatal blow to Anna.
Locks was also secretly sending out his own 300 dead soldiers.
Moreover, despite the fact that Dessau only sent 500 men, this already shows Dessau's attitude, as the supreme commander of the occupation forces in Bohemia, including the areas just ceded by Austria, Dessau had a decisive role in the operation to a certain extent, as long as Anna's escort was disabled.
As long as she appears anywhere in the Dessau defense zone, then not only will she not be protected, but she will even be hunted down by the people sent by Dessau and Locks in the first place!
Dessau, who was still sitting on the sofa after Elstner left, did not know whether his decision was right or wrong, but as a member of the war against the Austrians for generations, Dessau had long been a staunch anti-Austrian, and Dessau's father Moritz indirectly died at the hands of the Austrians in Dessau's view.
Dessau's father, Prince Moritz, was in the Battle of Hokzi when the Austrian army attacked the Prussian camp.
Seriously wounded and carried off the battlefield.
On his way back to Berlin after the war, he was intercepted and captured by the Austrians, and was soon ransomed by Frederick.
However, after redemption, he was found to have a malignant tumor on his lips, and finally died in 1760.
In Dessau's view, if it weren't for the fact that the Austrians had delayed his father by capturing him, his father would never have died.
Although it is said that the crockpot will inevitably break by the well, and the general will inevitably die in battle!
But Prince Moritz's death cast a shadow over the young Dessau's heart.
Because of this, in all the battles against Austria, Dessau always demanded to rush to the front line.
This was true not only during the reign of Frederick the Great, but even more so during the reign of Wilhelm, with the result that every time there was a dozen Austrians, the military hierarchy always thought of Dessau.
The power of hatred is endless, and although Dessau does not say it, every time he fights the Austrians, everyone knows that Dessau's heart is full of flames.
This flame is enough to blow people to pieces!
Under these circumstances, Dessau did not want to see Anna sitting on the throne of the Prussian queen all the time, for it seemed to Prussia to be a mockery of him, who devoted himself to dealing with the Austrians.
But he didn't expect that there was an Austrian who was arrogantly entrenched in his head.
Even Anna's child was met with resistance in Dessau's mind, and in Dessau's view, if a child of half-Austrian blood ascended to the throne of Prussia in the future, his previous belief in revenge would not be as ridiculous as a small stone that could not move when he jumped into a small lake.
It is precisely because of this that Locks believes that Dessau will support him, if he is not more than ninety percent sure, how can an old fox like Locks reveal his old background and plans to Dessau. ................
After a day's stay in České Budjevice, the mission once again set out on its way to Vienna.
Along the way, Anna was in a very low mood, not only because of the death of Leopold II, but also because of the defeat of Austria.
In the past, during the reign of Joseph II, České Bōdějevice could even be described as the hinterland of Austria, because it did not take much time to get from here to Vienna, but now the region was occupied by the Prussians.
Looking at the Prussian flags hanging over the large and small towns along the way, Anna's urge to cry became stronger and stronger, all the Austrians live here, and their language makes Anna feel friendly, but this is all Prussian territory, and this is all land that was ceded after the war!
The great Habsburgs, the great Austria, are really decaying!
The people here have lived under the rule of the Habsburgs for hundreds of years, but now they are people of other countries!
It took another five days for the Prussian division to finally reach Vienna, and it was already July 15, 1794, nearly twenty days after the death of Leopold II.
But during these twenty days, Leopold II's funeral did not take place, on the one hand, Leopold II was the monarch of the Habsburg dynasty, and his funeral was not so simple and needed to be held quite grandly, and on the other hand, it took time for the various branches of the Habsburg family and the mourning missions of the countries of the European continent to arrive in Vienna.
After all considerations, Leopold II's funeral was set for July 25.
The arrival of the Prussian mission did not cause any waves in Vienna, Alexander only sent his favorite vassal Daniel to meet the Prussian group, according to the specifications, although Daniel was Alexander's favorite vassal this is well known, but Daniel's identity on the surface is only the commander of the Vienna city defense.
Whether compared to Anna's identity or Elsterner's identity, Daniel's identity is a lot lower.
The Prussian-flagged motorcade was slowly moving through the streets of Vienna, and Anna lifted the curtains of the carriage and looked out, only to see that on both sides of the street, her compatriots were now looking at the Prussian division with hatred.
When the convoy drove through the streets of Vienna for a while, two young men suddenly appeared on the window on the right side of the street, and these two young men saw the Prussian mission passing by on the street, and threw the eggs they had prepared in their hands into the Prussian mission's carriage, and even the carriage in which Anna was riding was attacked by an egg, which left a large stain on the window next to the carriage.
"Damn the Prussians, get out of Vienna!
Prussian mongrels are not welcome in Vienna!
” The two young men shouted as they threw the eggs, and as they threw the first eggs, the Prussian cavalry, who were guarding the side of the mission, rushed towards the house where the men were, but the men below the house were already locked up, and the two men upstairs shouted: "Austria will never perish, you damned Prussian mongrells, the Austrians will never succumb to your Prussian coercion!"

These two Austrians can be described as the angry Austrians of the present age, and just as the two kept yelling at the Prussian mission downstairs, the Austrians in the street saw that the Prussian guards were pounding on the door of the house and immediately rushed up, and when the Prussian guards stopped the Austrians, the crowd seemed to erupt.
"The Prussians are not welcome in Vienna!"
"Get out of Vienna !!"
"The Prussians are all mongrels!
Fuck the Prussians!
” The insults of Austrian civilians were incessant, and Anna, who was sitting in the carriage, burst into tears.
Yes, now I am also Prussians in the eyes of these residents of Vienna, and these civilians who attacked the Prussian guards with their flesh and blood are not a manifestation of the Austrian spirit, and how can I be called a qualified Austrian princess by the indifferent spectators of the Austro-Prussian War.
