It was now clear that Alexander could no longer count on the Hungarian nobles to support him in the early winter, and that the only way out was cut off, so he was now left with only two options.
One is to pay some price and ask the Prussians to intervene, and the other is to fight Karl to the death in the city of Wagram, and the final winner will become the master of Austria!
At this moment, Alexander was like a beast cornered, his eyes red and his head in his arms.
"Your Highness, we can't hesitate any longer, we can't resist Karl for long at Wagram, and if the time drags on for too long, then without waiting for the Prussians to intervene, I'm afraid we will already become Karl's ghost!"
Looking at Alexander, who was still unable to make a decision, Daniel hurriedly spoke on the side.
Daniel's words seemed to stimulate the man who was cornered, only to see Alexander slap the wall beside him, and then said with red eyes: "Daniel, send someone to contact the Prussians immediately, and I ask Prussia to mediate!"
"Your Highness not!"
Hearing Alexander's decision, Nuhad hurriedly opened his mouth to dissuade him.
But now it was clear that Alexander had made up his mind, so he did not respond to Nohad's dissuasion, and immediately turned back to the city of Wagram.
When Alexander had left with a group of men, he saw Nouhad standing on the city wall with his eyes distracted, muttering: "It's over, it's all over!"
After Daniel received an order from Alexander.
He immediately sent to České Budějevice, where the base camp in Dessau was located.
But after sending the fastest messenger, Daniel had an even more important thing to do.
That is to strengthen the defenses of Wagram City.
You must know that from Wagram to České Budějevice, even the fastest fast horse takes half a month to go back and forth, and now that the Austrian army led by Karl is about to enter the city, how to ensure that Wagram will not lose at least half a month is the biggest problem at present.
Less than thirty miles west of Wagram, Karl was now leading his army there.
At this moment, in order to attack Alexander, Karl mobilized more than 30,000 troops, which is also the largest force he can draw at present.
After Karl took over Vienna.
The area around Vienna fell in favor of Karl, and not only that, but also the southern and western regions of Austria began to worship Karl.
"Ferdinand.
Alexander still puts on a posture of fighting to the end, which is really a headache for me, I really don't want our brothers to fight in the same room, do you have any good ideas to change the current situation?
” Karl said to Ferdinand, who was sitting in the tent.
This is the time to go on the expedition.
Karl took Ferdinand with him.
Although Ferdinand and Alexander are very affectionate, but at the moment Ferdinand is still on his side, and it is precisely because of the relationship between Ferdinand and Alexander that Karl is not at ease to let Ferdinand out of his control.
If Ferdinand was left in Vienna, then if Ferdinand had any other thoughts, Karl and the tens of thousands of troops under his command would be threatened, and Karl knew this.
And Carl's precautions are not only clear to Carl.
Ferdinand also knew it.
Although after Ferdinand took refuge in Karl, Karl was promoted to the rank of knight.
It was a lot of rewards, but Ferdinand knew that Karl had not let his guard down.
But for now, Karl is the trend of the times, so Ferdinand said: "Your Highness's thoughts really move me, so why don't I write a letter to Alexander later and persuade this younger brother of ours!"
Hearing Ferdinand say this, Karl nodded noncommittally and said: "Well, then give it a try as you say!"
In fact, both of them knew in their hearts that it was impossible for Alexander to surrender because of a letter from Ferdinand, and even when Ferdinand's letter was handed over to Alexander, Alexander would have a strong indignation in his heart.
After all, Alexander could be said to have trusted Ferdinand before, but who could have known that Ferdinand actually threw himself at Karl at the most critical time instead of supporting Alexander as always, which also made Alexander very sad.
But no matter what the people concerned think, this letter still has to be written, after all, it is an opportunity to show his loyalty to Karl, and Ferdinand has no reason not to seize it. .................................
Sitting in the city hall of České Buděvice, Marshal Dessau's face looked very sullen.
The reason for Marshal Dessau's bad mood came from two aspects, one was the reprimand of William some time earlier, and the other was that the military department rejected his proposal to send troops to Austria.
It has been said before that most of Marshal Dessau's military exploits can be said to have been brushed on the Austrians, and now that there is another civil strife in Austria, this is undoubtedly another excellent opportunity for Prussia for Dessau.
But now the military department has actually given up this opportunity, preferring to watch the life and death in Austria and choose to ignore the low-hanging benefits.
Of course, during his time in České Budjevice, Marshal Dessau was not constantly depressed, after all, the region had just been occupied by the Prussians, and the occupation after the war was undoubtedly the most exhausting.
At least those Austrian partisans who were unwilling to submit to Prussian rule, and some of the bandits still needed to be exterminated by Marshal Dessau.
For Prussia, every time it conquered a region, Prussia always kept all the local books and documents in a centralized manner, and the books in the post-market, especially the textbooks of the schools in the occupied areas, were all replaced with books written in Prussian, and Prussia had a strict order.
That is, it is forbidden to circulate any written language of the previous dynasty.
I'm sure you've all studied a text called "The Last Lesson" that mentions Prussia after the occupation of Alsace and Lorraine in France.
The story of a total ban on French and a change to German.

Centennial plan, education-oriented!
This is not only familiar to William from later generations, but even in the original history, Prussia did quite well.
Prussia was the first country in the world to implement a census and the first country in the world to implement a six-year compulsory education system, and as early as the end of the eighteenth century, the illiteracy rate in Prussia was kept below 3 percent.
After William came to power, he intensified his efforts in education.
Of course, this education does not refer to all kinds of miscellaneous education.
After all, Prussia is still a monarchy at the moment, and the books of the famous Voltaire and some so-called democrats are in circulation in Prussia in addition to the upper classes.
The rest of the private ownership and circulation are considered anti-state.
Even though the land at the foot of Dessau had only been divided into Prussia for less than a few months, books in Prussian had begun to be distributed to all schools in the region, and only a few of the former teachers in those schools had been selected.
Many teachers who have tendencies in teaching have been dismissed.
Of course, the vacancies vacated by these teachers will be allocated by the Prussian Ministry of Education.
Many people may think that the lingua franca of the Holy Roman Empire is German, but is it a bit of a superfluous move for the Prussians?
In fact, the question is completely absurd.
The current official language of Prussia is German, which originated in the Brandenburg region, and although it is also German, it is a branch of German called German in the Eastern Lowlands. among them The difference between the German language spoken in Prussia and the spoken language in Austria is no less different than that between the Northeast dialect and the Shanghai dialect in China.
As for the writing of the text, there is a difference, as if Chinese mainland and Taiwan currently use simplified and traditional Chinese characters respectively.
Many people who learn simplified Chinese characters can't read traditional Chinese characters at all.
In addition, if Mandarin is not taught in schools, do you expect a northeasterner to be able to chat with a Shanghainese as soon as they meet?
(As an aside, I am from northern Jiangsu, but I heard the Suzhou dialect of southern Jiangsu or something.)
I was almost desperate, and I lived for almost two years.
But I still don't feel like it's clear) A person's life can be said to be the most important period of childhood, and only when those children are allowed to grow up in an environment from an early age, will they develop a sense of dependence and belonging.
Education in the occupied territories has always been a priority for the Prussian government.
And at the moment Marshal Dessau is upset by such a thing, there is a small town called Lisov, in the east of České Budějevice.
Austrian German was spoken in this town, and after the Prussian occupation, the schools in the town were also remodeled, but who knew that the two dozen or so teachers in the town all refused to teach the Prussian language and script.
There was nothing to be fuss about, since there were many schools that did not cooperate with the policies of the Prussian Ministry of Education, and many of them refused to teach Prussian textbooks, language, and writing to the Prussian textbooks.
But to Dessau's trouble, just as he was about to dismiss all the teachers and arrest the leaders of them, as was the case with Prussia, he aroused the hatred of all the townspeople.
The thirty or so Prussian soldiers who had been sent to arrest the teachers, as well as a few officers and policemen who had been assigned to Lishov, were all driven out of the town.
Originally, because Lisov was only a small town, Prussia did not have any troops.
You must know that the occupied area is so large, if Prussia had stationed troops in all these places, Prussia would not have been able to divide the 200,000 troops.
Therefore, for these relatively remote areas where the strategic position is not important, Prussia often arranges a few officials and a few policemen to complete the work.
But who would have known that Lishov's gang had the audacity to not only openly resist arrest, but also to drive out all the local Prussian officials and policemen, and their nature was undoubtedly rebellious.
What made Dessau even more troublesome was that Lisov had a very bad head, and after Lisov drove out the Prussians, several surrounding towns followed suit.
In accordance with the meaning of Dessau.
Then the army must have been sent to re-wash all these areas, but Dessau's opinion was considered by the staff to be out of place.
In addition to advising the commander in wartime, the staff officers in the Prussian army were also responsible for analyzing every order of the commander-in-chief.
If they think there is a problem, then these staff officers have the right to dismiss it.
The commander can also ignore the opinions of these staff officers, but in the same way, these staff officers also have the right to report the matter to the Military Department, which will make a judgment.
Although the Lishov affair could only be regarded as a civil dispute, after all, these towns had begun to openly resist Prussia, so these staff officers had the right to express their opinions on the matter.
If it weren't true that Dessau had been reprimanded by William some time ago, then he wouldn't have cared too much about the objections of these staff officers.
But the point is that he has just been reprimanded by William, and at this time, if he still insists on going his own way.
If things are not handled well, then he Dessau will definitely not have good fruit to eat.
It is in this situation that Dessau feels a little constrained.
And at this moment, a man dressed as an official walked into Dessau's room "What did the man who sent him say?"
Saw the officer walk in.
Dessau frowned and asked.
"Your Excellency, Marshal.
The people of Lishov and several surrounding towns still did not give up their plans, and they not only demanded that we release all the teachers we had arrested earlier, but also demanded that we stop interfering in their local education problems!

” "It's just nonsense!
It seems that if you don't give these people some power, they really mean how capable they are!
Education in Prussia has always been the focus of His Majesty's attention, and several regions have been severely punished for this!
Before, it was just that I was a little unbearable, but now it seems that I have to let them see the stakes!
” This official was sent to Lisoff by Dessau to communicate with the people of the town, but it was clear that the reply brought by this official was very undesirable to Dessau.
Prussian education in the occupied territories is Prussia's unchangeable state policy!
There is no doubt about that!
Since in this case.
Those people still dare to provoke Prussia, then they will have to pay for it!
After making up your mind.
Dessau immediately ordered the Prussian Twentieth Division, stationed in the České Budějice region, to mobilize and prepare to go to Lisov.
And the next day, just as Dessau was preparing to give the order for the 20th Division to march on Lishov, Alexander's envoy arrived in České Bōdějevice.
In the official residence of Dessau.
"Greetings, Your Excellency Marshal!"
Looking at the dusty man in front of him, Dessau's nose twitched imperceptibly.
"I wonder why His Highness Alexander sent you?"
Dessau was not prepared to make a detour with this man, knowing that it was because of this man's arrival that Dessau had to postpone the departure of the 20th Division, and if the people of Lisov had known, they would probably have burned incense and worshiped the Buddha to thank the messenger of Alexander, because it was he who bought the people of Lisov a few more days to live.
Seeing that Dessau was not prepared to make a detour, the messenger also made a long story short and immediately said: "Your Excellency Marshal, His Royal Highness the Regent of our country has sent me in the hope that in view of the present state of affairs in our country, Prussia will be able to come to the rescue!"
As soon as he heard this man's words, Dessau meant that this man had come to apply for assistance from Prussia on behalf of Alexander, so Dessau immediately waved his hand and said: "Your Excellency, less than half a year ago, my country and your country signed a peace agreement, and this agreement is valid for five years!
The Kingdom of Prussia is a very trustworthy country, so that in five years' time, unless there is an unforeseen and important situation between the two countries, we in Prussia will never interfere in your domestic affairs!
” Indeed, from Prussia's point of view, Prussia really cares about its credibility so far, at least in the Second Austro-Prussian War, Austria first started the war against Prussia.
Hearing Dessau say this, the messenger immediately shook his head and said: "No, no, no, Your Excellency Marshal, I think you have misunderstood, His Royal Highness the Prince Regent Alexandria does not mean to ask for your ** assistance, His Royal Highness the Prince Regent just hopes that your country can mediate the current civil war in our country!
Although the cause of the war in our country was Karl's rash rebellion in Vienna, after all, Karl and His Royal Highness the Prince Regent were brothers, and in this case, His Royal Highness the Prince Regent wanted to restore the brotherhood between him and Karl, so he wanted to ask Prussia to mediate!
” When Dessau heard the mediation, he was stunned, but then joy ensued.
Although Prussia is not prepared to intervene in the fraternal rivalry in Austria due to the current plans of the Prussian leadership, for Dessau, the so-called high-level involvement is only military involvement, which does not mean that it cannot intervene diplomatically.
The fact that the areas that Austria had just ceded to Prussia were still being executed meant that Dessau was not only the top decision-maker in the region, but also the most crucial link in Austro-Prussian relations until there was accurate information about Brandenburg.
Even for Dessau, as long as he can bite a piece of fat on Austria, then it is a credit to him Dessau anyway.
"Oh, please mediate, yes, but ...................................."
Saying this, Dessau groaned, and Dessau's performance seemed to this messenger, and what Dessau was thinking was clear at a glance, and making this gesture was nothing more than wanting benefits!
