The Great Ming Dynasty Dominate Overseas

The movements of the South China Army are not slow, but Baipi's movements are faster.

When Yin Youlong, the vanguard of the First Army of the South China Army, arrived in the outskirts of Vienna, what they saw was a large-scale fortification defense system!

Deep trench --- a trench five meters deep and five meters wide.

Thick base---a retaining wall with an average height of more than five meters and a thickness of one meter.

There are also tall arrow towers, artillery fortifications, and artillery positions, layered on top of each other, continuously surrounding Vienna, as if wrapped in a thick layer of armor.

These fortifications were built at the beginning of Raimondo Montecuccoli’s army. At that time, he was attacked and said that he was as timid as a rat and wasted public money. Our army was invincible under the guidance of Christ. Grams!

Fortunately, Leopold I supported him, and now the fortifications come in handy.

Moreover, the soldiers and civilians in the city continue to excavate and build: they have to dig deeper, wider and more, and they are also building fortifications in the city, preparing for street fighting, day and night.

Paired with the solid fortifications, there was a flood of people, a large number of soldiers enriched them, watching the incoming heathen army vigilantly.

Hasn't Baipi lost a lot of military strength? Why are there so many soldiers?

What the Chinese didn’t know was that just the day before they arrived in Vienna, the Austrian Habsburg Emperor Leopold I called the army and the civilians on the Heroes’ Square in front of the Hofburg Palace in front of more than 20,000 people. In front of him, he delivered a passionate speech: "Austria will never give up!"

"...The yellow peril is here. Under the guidance of Christ, the Austrian people will never stop fighting, never weary, never give way to fighting. All Austrians, no matter how high or low, no matter their race, will unite and vowed to bear it. Take up this task: to clean up the poison of the Eastern pagans in Europe, and save the land of Christ from the new dark age... We will not reconcile the pagans. We will fight against them in the mountains, forests, plains, and rivers. Drive the pagans of the East from the land of Christ, and we will never give up!"

Leopold I said that he would not go anywhere, so he would sit in the Hofburg Palace and coexist and die with Vienna!

It's a kind!

His speech quelled the dissatisfaction of the military and civilians, stabilized the military and stabilized the people's sentiments. Since the emperor has adhered to the capital, everyone will accompany him to the end.

Is Leopold I afraid of death?

of course!

But he knows better that as soon as he leaves Vienna, the entire Austria will no longer exist, not only the fall of the land, but the decadence of the people's hearts. Since the upper ranks do not love Austria, then I have to die for Austria?

Therefore, he could not go. In the face of a strong enemy, the Austrians could only stand firm and resist.

The Vienna government issued a notice to urgently enlist all people to join the army. All people, starting from the age of fifteen, have no upper age limit, no difference in gender, no difference in identity, and they will all join the army!

All criminals are amnesty. Those who committed previous crimes, whether serving their sentences or fleeing abroad, will be pardoned. National disasters are at stake. As long as they are loyal to the country, all sins will be pardoned.

It is declared that Austria has reached the most critical juncture. All the people are able to contribute their strengths and have money to pay, and they must protect their hometowns!

After the notice was issued, the Viennese supported the official recruitment notice with a high degree of patriotism. In just the first four days, 110,000 applications for enlistment were sent to various neighborhoods to recruit soldiers. There were official officials who came to join the army. , Craftsmen, composers, pianists, poets, veterans of the Thirty Years’ War, and many young soldiers who joined the army at a young age.

In the past, government officials were not forced or mobilized to join the army. After all, a regime’s decree requires manpower to be uploaded and issued. Once there are no officials, the implementation of the decree will be in great trouble.

During the war, the status of craftsmen has been greatly improved: they make guns, build weapons, construct trebuchets, etc.... The Austrian military production is developing rapidly, and craftsmen are indispensable.

Vienna is a city of culture and music. There is a strong cultural atmosphere. Composers, pianists, and poets are the guests of the powerful and powerful.

The veterans who participated in the Thirty Years' War in Europe were either fame or profit, or were full of pain, but they resolutely declared that they would return to the team!

The government said that it only accepts people over fifteen years old, but some tall teenagers who are twelve or thirteen years old have also joined the army!

These people are the last manpower in Vienna, and they are now also on the battlefield.

Of these 110,000 applications, more than 40,000 were women, young women, and girls to join the army, and many of them were women from noble families!

The Austrian nobles also showed great blood in this disaster. Although they sent some children abroad, more of them stayed in the country, actively participated in the war, donated money and materials, and the ladies accepted the wounded. Careful treatment is given at home, and they also participate in the military preparations.

As Leopold I said, "No matter how high or low, they must serve the country." They applied for the army and joined the army. They first participated in the construction of fortifications, fed horses and cooked food for the army, conducted military training, and mobilized all of Vienna. He got up, showing a tragic atmosphere.

Yin Youlong tried to attack, and found that Vienna's defense was very stable, and the defenders were firm. Even if they were attacked, their resistance was not affected much.

The South China Army and the Imperial Confederate Army arrived one after another, including 130,000 South China Army, 120,000 Imperial Confederate Army, 30,000 Chinese civilian workers and 70,000 migrant workers from all over the world. The number of combat personnel reached 350,000. people.

The second prince of the empire, Yan Yu, came in a ceremonial battle with half of the emperor, which greatly boosted the morale of the army!

First, they strengthened their battalion defenses and established themselves in an invincible position. At the same time, they sent Crimean archers to cooperate with Yin Youlong to sweep around the city of Vienna.

It was only then discovered that the Austrians had made the greatest possible solid walls and clearing of the wild. On the road leading to the rear, there were many fortresses. The population moved into the fortresses, and there was no one in the wild, and no one could be found. Fill the gully.

Then expand the scope of aggression, it will take time.

On the outskirts of Vienna, the South China Army launched an attack. Baipi laid down artillery and infantry in the barracks. Even if the South China Army’s fire attack knocked down the wall and collapsed the camp, it caught fire everywhere, but when the South China Army approached thirty At the meter, the white skins popped their heads, and the bullets swished towards the South China Army. Then the bomb fell in the South China Army and exploded, and arrows flew in the air!

After three days of attack, the results were few.

Zeng Ying said: "Now Vienna, just like the situation when we first arrived at Bratislava Castle, with high morale, sufficient vitality and a lot of munitions, it is very difficult to speed down!"

He pointed out that only the defensive power of Baipi has a chance to win. The key is that the South China Army does not have an absolute advantage. The source of the White Leather is actually more than that of the South China Army. Although the quality is worrying, it is made up by their morale.

Yan Yu said helplessly: "Yes, then it's a waste!"
