Chapter 88: Offensive and defensive battle in Budapest-Undercurrent

The church in Austria is not a soft persimmon. Although it is now declining, the church has colluded with the local nobles. The high-level churches are basically side branches of the nobles.
This is why Franz was not in a hurry to start the fight against the church and moved his whole body. Eat bite by bite, and kill the enemies one by one. It is better to be able to turn the enemy into a friend.
There is no doubt that the members of the Austrian church are not worth him to draw in. The richness of these people has hindered the development of Austrian society and is a true gold reactionary.
Prime Minister Felix said, "His Royal Highness, it is best to defer the Church. Not long ago, something happened in the Papal State, and the Pope Pius IX in exile in Naples has rescued us.
The Cabinet decided to speed up the rebellion, defeat the Kingdom of Sardinia, and then send troops to the Papal State to help asylum IX take power! "
Obviously, the cabinet government is not a fool, knowing that the church cannot act rashly. Since the Middle Ages, theocratic power has begun to play against the royal power. Now the secular royal power has gained the upper hand, but the divine power still cannot be underestimated.
It's definitely not a good choice to deal with them directly. But these clergy are not without their nemesis, and the Austrian Catholic Church is subject to the Holy See's leadership.
Now something has happened in the Papal States, and Austria needs a helping hand. After the incident, can the asylum IX still not repay the peach?
Franz nodded with satisfaction, thinking in his heart: Sure enough, these old foxes in the political arena are not fuel-saving lamps, and they are accurate when they seize the opportunity.
The Pope was too self-conscious to betray the Austrian church for his own benefit, without hesitation. With the Pope's top tank, the pressure they will have to bear is much smaller.
...
With the order of the Vienna government, the offensive and defensive battle began in Budapest.
Now Lieutenant General Julius does not have to worry. According to the plan of the Vienna government, Budapest will be dispensed with in the future division of the district. Don't worry about the destruction of the city by the war.
Budapest was actually formed by the merger of Buda and Pest. As early as the medieval era, Pest became the capital of Hungary. Buda is just a city separated by Pest.
When referring to two cities, usually everyone is connected, Budapest or Pesbuda.
After the establishment of the Hungarian Republic, the two cities were merged. After the war, it was naturally to be split, and it would still be under the jurisdiction of the two provinces.
"Governor, the War Department has issued a siege order, asking us to take Budapest as soon as possible. What's your opinion?" Lieutenant General Julius asked with interest.
The Bohemia Army and the Croatian Army complement each other. This attack on Budapest is only a temporary joint headquarters. Julius must consider the opinion of Governor Josip Jelacic.
"His Commander, the Hungarian Chaos Party is already in the middle of it. It is not a problem to conquer Budapest. The key is whether the Chaos Party can be completely wiped out!
At this time, the Transylvanian Army had reached the banks of the Tisza, and the Austrian Army was marching along the Danube. Outside our encirclement, a larger encirclement was being formed.
The only way these chaotic parties survived was to flee to the Ottoman Empire. The Sudanese government began a major reform as early as 1839. They have been hostile to the empire for a long time, and it is very likely that they will host these chaotic parties.
If they were allowed to converge, this would be very detrimental to the Empire's future rule in Hungary. Therefore, whether the enemy can be wiped out is the key to this war! "
Governor Josip Jelacic is a military politician. He sees the problem more politically. In the long run, it is more meaningful to completely extinguish the Hungarian Revolutionary Party than to conquer Budapest.
Lieutenant General Julius said with a bitter smile: "This is difficult to achieve. Revolutionaries are not as brave as they brag. Once the momentum is wrong, they run faster than rabbits.
It is estimated that now that they are ready for the back road, we will start the siege of Budapest and they will run away. Unless they can be blocked in the city, they will not be destroyed. "
As a loyal member of the Habsburgs, Julius was very hostile to the Revolutionaries, and he would not mind hanging them all if possible.
Franz asked him to be the chief commander, and the main purpose was to kill him and kill all the criminals involved or suspected of participating in the rebellion.
Regardless of whether the rebels could be wiped out, the Austrian army launched the Budapest siege on May 24, 1848. In order to wipe out the leader of the Revolutionary Party, Julius even chose a military siege on all sides.
The Hungarian Republic ’s external ties were completely cut off, and Budapest has become a lonely city. Perhaps it was put aside the concern that the Austrian army unleashed artillery fire into the city.
Budapest
Since the siege of the siege, the ancient city has become noisy. The main faction and the main faction have been arguing constantly. Some clever men and women have searched for a way forward, and the pressure on the Kosut government has increased.
"Count Shamir, the revolutionaries are still unwilling to compromise, what shall we do now?" Gorgay asked with a headache
"General Gorgue, how many people in the National Guard listen to us?" Shemir asked with concern.
"Kosut has already begun to doubt us. He asked Bem to take over the military power in my hand half a month ago, and now he has invited Polish star Henrik Denbinski to preside over the defense.
If I were to do it now, there would be 13,000 troops under my command, but these people are still scattered among the troops and cannot be brought together! "Gorge replied somewhat awkwardly
"waste!"
This was Shemir's first reaction. As the army secretary of the interim government, he did not have a reliable army in his hands.
More than 13,000 people? This is obviously flickering. If there were so many unrelated troops in their hands, they would have turned face with the revolutionaries.
You know, the Hungarian National Self-Defense Forces Gorge was involved in the formation of the first hand. As a member of the bourgeois nobility, they can plug many people into it.
Up to now, it has been overtaken by the revolutionaries. Except for using "waste" to describe it, Shemir can no longer think of a better vocabulary.
"General Gorgue, I'm not asking how many people are inclined to us, but I'm saying how many people you can use without attracting outside attention right now, not how many troops you can focus on!" Shemir explained helplessly
"Without attracting outside attention, more than five hundred people can only be used." Gorge answered with a frown.
