The city of Milan has now transformed into a military fortress, leaving only the Golden Horse.

Since the outbreak of the European War, the Kingdom of Lombardy has become the front line of the Fao confrontation. After the outbreak of the war, Prince Lutterbird issued the mobilization order for the first time.

In the middle and late 19th century, the Wittersbach family seemed to be cursed, and various misfortunes followed.

First, Maximilian II reacted a bit slower, stood in the wrong team in the international political struggle, and reluctantly retained the throne by political marriage.

However, as a cost of failure, the Wittersbach family still paid a heavy price, lost the long-term operation of Bavaria, and came to Lombardy to reopen the foundation.

Having just gained a firm foothold, the successor, King Ludwig II, suffered from mental illness again. Finally, Ludwig II was sent away. The successor, King Otto I, was also a mental patient.

Not to mention prestige, the Wittelsbach family is directly reduced to laughter, and the outside world ridicules them as the "psychotic royal family", and even unscrupulous guys bet that the next king of the Wittelsbach family is mentally ill.

Not only is it a misfortune, but Greece has a bad life. The same guy named Otto was not only extinct, he was also pinned to power.

Without the intervention of the Vienna government, the rule of the Wittelsbach family in Greece had long collapsed.

Good days have passed, and now it has caught up with the European War. The Lombard Kingdom became the front line, which was another major challenge for the reign of the Wittelsbach family.

The regent Prince Lutterbird was very upset recently, fearing that something might have changed at the front, and the Wittersbach family would go into exile again.

According to the laws of the new Shinra Empire, the king and the emperor have the command of the army at the same time, and there is nothing like him as the regent.

King Lombardy was mentally ill, unable to perform his duties, and the command of the army fell to the emperor.

It is easy to give up power, but it is hard to get it back. In the case of the Lombard Kingdom, if you want to regain command of the army, you have to wait for the next generation of kings.

In this context, Prince Lutterbird should not worry. In case the government of Vienna is playing the idea of ​​the Lombard Kingdom, and directly come to kill someone with a knife, it is over.

"Your Highness, Admiral Moores has arrived in the parlor."

The attendant's voice pulled Prince Lutbird out of contemplation.

"Okay, I'll go right away!"

After tidying up his clothes and looking in the mirror to make sure that he would not be rude, Prince Lutterbird strode out.

Don't talk about the general in the past, even if it is the marshal of the empire and the prime minister of the cabinet, Prince Lutterbird can also ignore it.

Empire law stipulates that the Lombard Kingdom is highly autonomous, and no matter how high these people are, there is no way to reach out to the Lombard Kingdom.

But not now. Admiral Moores is the commander of the Italian theater, and the Kingdom of Lombardy happens to be in his defense zone.

On the whole, as long as it can win, even if the Lombard Kingdom is ruined, the Vienna government will not be distressed.

As a front-line commander, the most important thing is to win. Others are minor issues, especially this time the enemy is French, everyone is prepared to pay a heavy price.

Others can think of it like this, Prince Lutterbird can't. Smashing any city in the Kingdom of Lombardy is a disaster for the Wittelsbach family.

This will make their rugged rule even more stormy. From the standpoint of the Wittersbach family, it is best to defend the enemy from the frontier.

...

After the greeting, Admiral Moores opened the door and said: "His Royal Highness, I am here to seek help.

In order to guarantee the logistic supply of frontline troops, I hope you can provide 350,000 laborers and requisition all Lombard railways. "

It only requires labor, not soldiers, because the army is not under the control of the local government, even in reserve.

Hearing these two demands, Prince Lutterbird frowned: "General, your demands are too high.

The Kingdom of Lombardy has a population of less than 4 million. At present, 200,000 people have entered the army to serve, and another 350,000 laborers have been recruited. Almost all our youths have been exhausted.

Especially if you have to requisition all the railways, domestic production and life will be disrupted because of this, I am afraid ... "

In the war years, the people in the border areas were a miserable one!

When the fighting started, the most advanced operatives in the border area should bear the heaviest military service and labor; when the enemy came over, the border area was also the first to suffer.

The embarrassment of Prince Lutterbird, Admiral Moores understands it very well, and he is not willing to do so if possible.

But the soldiers are very fast. The recruitment of labor from the Kingdom of Lombardy is the fastest, and the requisition of railways is a must.

"His Prince, I am very clear about your worries. The Empire will compensate the people of the Lombard Kingdom for their contributions.

I will truthfully report the situation here, with specific compensation measures. Talk to the cabinet yourself.

The requisition of railways is not negotiable. Not only railways, but also highways must be given priority to satisfy the army. If the transportation capacity is rich, we can open it up to private use.

In addition, I hope that you will be able to confiscate some vehicles from the private sector, trucks, carriages, ox carts, donkey carts ... all visitors will not refuse. "

Before the war breaks out, you will never know how lacking your preparations are.

Austria is fully prepared, but as soon as the war broke out, it was found that it was not the case.

The preparation is indeed adequate, but there are many soldiers who can't stand the front line!

Franz doesn't think that a war with the French needs a national mobilization. The problem is that others don't think so!

Under the repeated persuasion of everyone, Franz decisively admitted. More people are better than less people, although the consumption is a bit bigger, but the odds are also up.

In order to defeat the French, the government of Vienna was ruthless, and the cabinet planned to mobilize five million troops.

There are one and a half million troops assigned to the southern line alone. It turned out that the various preparations were not enough at this time.

There is no doubt that this 1.5 million is just a figure on paper, or a theoretical value. At present, the Lombard Kingdom has a total of more than 300,000 troops.

No one knows what will happen to the follow-up troops. Everything must be based on the actual situation on the front line, and no one knows more or less.

Admiral Moores just started preparing ahead of time, lest the frontline attack, and the embarrassment that the logistics could not keep up.

After listening to Admiral Moores ’s explanation, Prince Lutbird ’s expression was slightly slower, and the central government would have to pay compensation. The most feared thing was to let the Lombard Kingdom bear the losses.

"I remember that after the reform of the Imperial Army, trucks and motorcycles were equipped on a large scale, and the logistics have been semi-mechanized.

Now that so many vehicles need to be requisitioned, is the general ready to take the initiative? "

Admiral Moores laughed: "The news of His Royal Highness is not very accurate! Mechanization is just a concept put forward by the military. It is the trend of future military development, but not now.

At present, we have only a small number of troops that can achieve semi-mechanization. If we want to fully realize semi-mechanization, it will be difficult to achieve within ten years.

However, the logistics forces did equip a large number of trucks and were at the forefront of mechanized roads. It is just that after the military expansion, some of them are not enough.

Considering the complex terrain and poor traffic in the Italian region, we must have a variety of transportation means, so as not to get time ... "

After getting the desired answer, Prince Lutterbird was relieved. Then I got a headache again, and cooperation is necessary.

France came over and the Kingdom of Lombardy was the biggest victim. Regardless of the military ’s excessive demands, as long as the French can be kept out of the country, he will agree.

The problem is that it is not easy to cooperate with the work, and not to mention whispering with the central government to compensate. It is enough for him to use roads and vehicles alone.

...

Everything needs to be compared. If you know the difficulties facing the French, Prince Lutterbird will not have a headache.

In the Turin French Army Command, Marshal Adrien was looking at the map and was worried. According to the plan, he should have launched an attack on the Kingdom of Lombardy.

But the Italians came out with moths, and anti-war movements broke out in many cities, including Turin, delaying the operation of the army.

If you do n’t make trouble early, do n’t make trouble at night, and wait until the war breaks out, the anti-war will start. If no one controls it, Adrien wo n’t believe it.

It should be known that before this, the Italian people still held the banner of supporting the emperor and demanded that the government declare war on the three kingdoms of Biedeo.

Now that the matter is over, Adrien can only find a way out. He couldn't even report to the country.

Because the cover is lifted, many people will be unlucky. If there are too many offenders, his marshal will not be mixed up.

"Did the mouse catch it?"

The mouse is synonymous with the Italian independent organization. Since the French annexation of the Italian region, the bureaucrats have added an activity to catch the mouse.

"Marshal, you know, these mice are so timid, they just don't show their heads ..."
