The torrent of history is rolling forward. After the end of the Putin war, the situation in Europe has also changed dramatically. Reform seems to have become the mainstream of society overnight.
In addition to the Russians in the country of ice and snow, they are still doing their part. Most countries on the European continent are undergoing social reforms. Austria is reforming, France is reforming, Prussia is still reforming ...
The reforms are good, everyone is busy with internal reforms, and there is no energy to do things. The situation in Europe calms down, as if it has returned to the Metternich era.
Franz knew that this was all an illusion. The contradiction had not disappeared, but only temporarily lurked. How can the bears who are ready to break the international order and the John Bull who fears no chaos make Europe truly peaceful?
The Austrian government has speeded up its internal rectification. Today, this official was warned to punish him. Tomorrow, that official rolled back home. Occasionally, a bad luck was brought to court by the Anti-Corruption Agency.
Since the decree to clean up the official style of the government was issued, the officials are not talking. Since March, dozens of officials have been laid off for various reasons almost every day, and one tenth of them have been sent to court.
As far as Franz knows, this is still merciless by the government, otherwise the number will easily increase tenfold. Perhaps the emperor is far away, and the more remote the district, the bolder the bureaucrats will be.
For example, in the province of Dalmatia, there is a mayor named Alligues. He believes that Latin is the best language in the world, and then promotes Latin for decades.
The cabinet government is naturally rude to such bold officials.
In this pit, one third of officials in Dalmatia Province went home to plant potatoes, and 300 of them were unlucky to accompany him to prison.
In a fury, the Prime Minister Felix dispatched them all to the army of railway construction to contribute to Austria's modernization.
Since it is a chicken and tamarin, how can it not be cruel?
It was not the Austrian government that had not been sentenced to death. Rather, it is a negative teaching material that is alive and suffering, which can shock people for a longer time than sending it directly to God.
Ordinary officials were bribed and bribed, and most of them were arrested for confiscating stolen money, and then they decided to go home or go to prison depending on the severity of the plot.
All officials who are opposed to government orders, whether incorruptible or not, must go to jail, or be the kind of "focused master".
Any identity background is useless this time, and some of the typical figures are not one in jail but the whole family together, and nobles are no exception.
The prestige of Felix "The Prime Minister of the Butcher" came into play, making the bureaucrats frightened. Even if they were very dissatisfied in their hearts, they did not dare to act, for fear of being burned.
Not only is the government working hard, the Austrian army is also reorganizing its military discipline. The Army has already fired 12 generals and 361 school-level officers, and lower-level small fish have cleared countless numbers.
Most of these people were driven home for malfeasance and misfortune, and a few were sent to military courts for corruption and bribery.
I have to say that the military aristocrats still pay attention to food, probably because they are afraid of being shot by black guns on the battlefield, and there are still very few people who seize military sacks. Most of them sell military supplies in private, or take back the bucks when purchasing .
It is ridiculous that many bad generals with personal conduct and corruption have a good reputation in the military.
Unfortunately, these talents have gone to the wrong set. If it is in a government department, they may still be raised as pigs. In the military, they think they are unlucky. Find one to deal with one. Do n’t think about exceptions.
The officers and men at the bottom did not know, but the high-ranking military had realized that the government was preparing for a big war.
Any individual or interest group that affects the combat effectiveness of the army must be defeated.
Just look at the current training situation. You know, each marshal and general often go to the training ground in person to supervise the training of officers and soldiers.
At the same time as rectifying the training of the army, the military has organized training courses for the professional quality of officers, which are specifically aimed at training officers. Many noble officers who are mixed in life often are served by army sticks and leather whip.
In the evening, in a military camp outside Prague, the exhausted noble officers were exhausted and returned to the collective dormitory to rest.
Gelnia asked: "Casamen, your kid is always well-informed, do you know when this special training will end?"
"Isn't that nonsense, Gernia. If I knew the news in advance, I would have thought of a way out and would suffer with you here," Casamen replied weakly.
"No, isn't your uncle at headquarters? Isn't there any news at all?" Gelnia asked in confusion.
"Yes, he told me that I must perform well, or it will be bad. Now it is true. Look at Ke Ling's Salks, the is blooming. The people in the military law department are really fierce, a little. No face was left for him. "Casamen replied wryly.
"It's nothing. The next-round Ban Alta tried to escape over the wall. The soldier on duty was shot to the right leg and almost amputated.
Even so, he was sent to a military court in the name of desertion, and his life was considered dead. "Gernia said with a little apprehension
...
Schönbrunn Palace Vienna
Prince Wendy Schgrez submitted a document to Franz, saying, "Your Majesty, this is our comprehensive reform plan for the War Department, please look at it."
Austria's military reform plan was formulated by the death of Grand Duke Carl, and Franz was also involved in it. It was full of his mixed private goods. Now the War Department is only perfecting on this basis.
In the 1848 battle, the Austrian army showed a lot of deficiencies, and people of insight in the army proposed military system reforms. At this time, Franz threw out the reform plan taught by Archduke Karl before his death.
Although once this plan was implemented, Archduke Karl's influence in the army would continue to increase, Franz chose to reform under his banner.
In the eyes of Franz, the death of the army is no matter how high, Grand Duke Karl, the first person recognized by the Austrian military, suggested that it was more influential than Franz, the emperor.
Reform leaders usually do not have good results, and they receive as much slander as they receive praise. If it is not possible, you will be retaliated by the interest group. The dead do not matter, and it is not enough to retaliate.
Many of the Austrian army generals have been influenced by Archduke Karl. For example, Marshal Radski, now the most prestigious, has served as Chief of Staff to Archduke Carl, and Prince Wendy Schgrez has even claimed to be his descendants.
Now is the best time for military reform. If after ten or eight years, the older generation retires, it will be difficult to raise it again.
Thinking of this, Franz had a headache. The talents in the Austrian army are showing signs of being out of touch. Now the generals in the Austrian army are not weaker than any other country.
However, these famous generals in the anti-French war are slowly getting old, and the younger generation has not yet made a few appearances.
Flipping around, Franz asked with interest: "Kick out the over-age officers in the army, are you ready to retire the veterans?"
Let the veteran retire think about it, if it is really difficult to do it.
People have made great achievements for Austria. They think that they can continue to fight for the country. You are too old to let them go home. It makes no sense to go out?
Moreover, in Franz's opinion, people are old and sophisticated. If they fought, the quality of the younger officers would not be as good as the older ones.
Talents emerged in troubled times. The older generation grew up in the era of Napoleon's fight against Europe, while Austria was the main force against Napoleon. Dozens of battles of all sizes were defeated, and the army naturally trained.
They also had many victories, anyway, the Austrian army also defeated Napoleon. Many military generals are dissatisfied with the French victory. In their view, if it were not for the government's hindrance, they might win.
The soul of the Austrian army was cast in that era. In the history of the French-Austrian war, the original owner personally went into battle to direct the battle, creating an epic defeat, and only lost this pride.
Without the army of the army, the combat effectiveness naturally declined all the way. By the time of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, it was able to bully Italy.
Prince Wendy Schgrez explained: "No, Your Majesty. These veterans are treasures of the Austrian Army and are now training the next generation of officers for the Austrian Army. How could the War Department retire them!
Our plan is to clean up officers in the army who are younger than 16 years old and unable to enter the army. "
Franz nodded, this is the dissolution of the legendary "Bottle Corps". The number of such young officers in the Austrian army is not small at all, and this is still led by the royal family.
Franz himself is the beneficiary of this policy, but this does not affect his despise of this policy, the determines the head.
At the beginning, he was the beneficiary. Naturally, he had to raise his hands to support him. Now his position has changed. This policy can no longer benefit him, and Franz's position has also changed.
If they reach the age of service, nobles become officers with superhuman military literacy, and no one can say that the army is a place of worship of the strong.
But this bottle of officers is unbearable, but no Austrian soldier will think that their military literacy is not as good as a child who is feeding.
Franz thought for a while and said: "Then change the overage to the younger, and remove all young officers who are under the age of service and have not entered the army, and the royal family is no exception."
He didn't think that the Army was partially unclear, and he mistakenly wrote "low age" as "overage". Obviously, it was a clean-up of the Bottle Corps while leaving a back door.
The purpose is very simple. The royal family's face must be taken care of. It cannot be generalized, and all are kicked out. Franz's three younger brothers are now one of them.
But in Franz's view, this is all it takes. The Baby Bottle Officer Corps does not have any substantial role. For the sake of a so-called face, it undermines the army's fairness principle.
"Yes, Your Majesty," Prince Wendy Schgrez replied.
With the royal family taking the lead, what else can the nobles say? Anyway, they just let the younger generation lose one title without any substantial loss.
The purpose of engaging such a young military officer was to inspire the next generation to study hard, always remembering that he was an officer.
Until now, this model of education has succeeded and failed.
The children of the aristocracy have indeed cultivated a self-conceived mind that they are superior to others. If they surpass their peers through hard work, their progress will continue after stimulation.
On the other hand, if you study hard, you will still be inferior to your peers. This pride will naturally wear off and become decadent.
