Holy Roman Empire

Chapter 119: Hongmen Banquet

The meeting between Franz and Alexander still achieved constructive results. Russia-Austria relations quickly began to heat up, because the small contradictions caused by the Putin war disappeared.

Kingdom of Sardinia

The Austrian army is packing, the armistice treaty has been signed, half of the war compensation has been paid, and the rest is also guaranteed by the British government.

Franz didn't mean to cheat. If possible, he didn't mind the immediate withdrawal of the troops. The army was expensive.

However, since the occupation of the Kingdom of Sardinia, it is naturally impossible for the Austrian army to go away. It is impossible for Qiu to commit no crimes, and almost all soldiers are now returning with a full load.

There are too many spoils, and it is very troublesome to carry them. If you sell them on the spot, in the Kingdom of Sardinia, which has just been baptized by war, you can't sell them at all, and some products cannot even be found by buyers.

Marshal Radsky is a good marshal. In order to protect everyone's interests, he immediately decided to transport it back to the country for sale, and then everyone would divide the money.

...

A major officer in the Turin industrial zone was commanding: "Tom be careful, these machines are babies, it is said that they are worth tens of thousands of dongs. You ca n’t turn it into scrap iron. Then we ca n’t make enough freight. ! "

"Relax, Major. These darlings, I dare not let them break." Tom replied

Bandits are like combs, soldiers are like crickets.

Since the decision of the Vienna government to abandon the Kingdom of Sardinia, the Austrian army has fully exerted its subjective initiative and began to make a fortune.

Of course, ordinary people are too lazy to grab it, they wo n’t squeeze out oil and water, and they waste time.

The gains of robbing a nobleman or capitalist are greater than the gains of robbing a village. This multiple-choice question is easy to do.

Marshal Radsky is strict in governing the army. Everyone is organized to make a fortune. Each army has divided its area and started to operate.

This also needs to test professional knowledge. The European army has always had a tradition of looting. The Sardinian kingdom has been patronized by the French army many times in the anti-French war.

In the process of robbing and being robbed, everyone also learned to hide wealth.

Don't worry about real estate and land. These real estate that can't be taken away are very safe. Everyone should be careful about how to hide cash, antique calligraphy, etc. that are easy to carry.

Nobles and capitalists are not stupid, they start to hide their goods before the enemy arrives. Anyway, as long as they do not resist, the army usually only robs and does not kill.

How much you can hide is your own ability. Those with experience know that they need to hide some of the most valuable goods and leave some cash outside for robbery by the soldiers.

If all were hidden, most of them would be lost, how could the soldiers give up? Get anxious, what if someone severely confesses?

Copying is not Li Zicheng's patent. Many people have done this kind of thing, but others are not as fierce as he is.

A person with such discipline in Franz would naturally not let the Austrian army do such a non-technical thing.

Before the operation, people were sent to train the soldiers. For example, the cultural relics in antique calligraphy and painting must be carefully stored, and mechanical equipment must be handled with care.

What kind of basement, hidden cabinet, empty wall, new ground breaking ... These places where the goods may be hidden are all the targets of the search.

Nothing is afraid of professionalism. The combat effectiveness of a robbery team with high quality is very good. This is no longer a spoils of war.

In this era, the Kingdom of Sardinia did not have a railway running through Austria, and the transportation mainly depended on human and animal power. This speed is naturally not fast.

Since August, the Austrian army has begun transporting these household goods to the country, and it is still working hard.

A soldier reported: "Major, we found a warehouse with a large amount of triticale, which is said to be stored by a grain merchant."

The major officer frowned, hesitating, and said, "We have already seized a large amount of food, and now we are about to evacuate, we can't finish it at all. Seal it there, don't move it, wait for the order, I will report it first. "

There is no shortage of food in Austria, and it costs a lot to transport it back from the Kingdom of Sardinia. It earns little money at all, which is a worthless booty.

...

Expeditionary Forces Command, Marshal Radsky has received too many reports of seizing basic materials such as grain, coal, ore, and industrial raw materials.

For Austria, these things are completely tasteless. They are not profitable at all when shipped back.

Left to the Sardinian government, he was not reconciled. After this battle, it is not in the interests of Austria to weaken the national strength of the Kingdom of Sardinia for decades.

Want to destroy it? Marshal Radsky hesitated.

"Marshal, why don't you sell this to the merchant?" Lieutenant General Edmund Leopold Friedrich proposed.

Robbery must also be divided into objects. Naturally, foreign companies such as Britain and France are not within the scope of the robbery. Of course, this is limited to big businessmen with backstage, and small businessmen grab it.

After the Austrian army occupied the Kingdom of Sardinia, there were businessmen who wanted to buy the loot of the Austrian army, but because the bid was too low, Marshal Radsky did not want to suffer this loss, and chose to ship it back to the country to sell.

Marshal Radsky hesitated for a moment and said, "Sell it!"

You ca n’t live with anyone, you ca n’t live with money. With so many basic materials, no matter how cheap they are, they add up to a lot of numbers.

What would happen to these materials when they fell into the hands of these foreign merchants, Marshal Radsky was too lazy to think about it, it would not be a good thing for the Kingdom of Sardinia anyway.

...

A religious feast is taking place in the Stephen's Cathedral in Vienna, and Pope Pius IX "participates" in the meeting himself.

It is true that he attended the meeting. Although he is the leader of the religious world, he is in peace, although he has not yet been deceived by dogs, he has also lost his authority to say nothing.

Faced with the conditions offered by the Austrians, he could not find a reason for refusal.

The Holy See ’s headquarters fell, and in order to recapture the headquarters, it was logical to sell a portion of the teaching property to raise military expenses.

Who dares to oppose it is that there is not enough religion in God. An unreligious clergyman is not qualified to continue serving God.

This is only the view of Pius IX, which is very unreasonable to many Austrian bishops. With so many industries in the Holy See, why sell everything they own?

"Don't make a noise, this is an order. If anyone opposes the restoration of the Holy Land, I will now lift his bishop position!" Pius IX threatened

It is estimated that the dismissal is only the first step. If it is not possible, there will be another penalty, which is miserable.

They were not Protestants and could use the Pope's orders as toilet paper. It is not a vassal of one party, and can directly lead troops to Rome, threatening the Pope to revoke the order.

People blinded by their interests are never lacking in this world, and Bishop Monterey is one of them.

Unlike the veteran bishop who has already had enough money, he has just come to power. For this position, Monterey has taken all the net worth, and hasn't had time to pay back?

At this time, it is necessary to sell teaching property on a large scale. Isn't this to break his financial path?

Glancing at the audience, he saw that all the bishops were angry, and his courage came up.

This is not the Middle Ages, why is the Pope so cowardly?

"Her Majesty, the clergy also have to eat. If we sell the birth, what shall we eat?" Monterey asked.

"As servants of God, we are not greedy for pleasure. The church's income is enough to sustain the clergy." Pius IX said indifferently.

The church is not without business. In a country with a strong atmosphere of faith, Austria will not lack believers to raise funds.

Monterey continued to argue: "However, Her Majesty, the church also needs to operate, and if funding is insufficient, we will not be able to guarantee that the people's faith will not be reduced."

Pius IX said piously, "As a devout believer, you must overcome these difficulties. If you are not capable of this responsibility, let the capable person do it!"

Those who were about to help out quickly chose to shut up. This is obviously the Austrian government's attention to the wealth of the church, and Pius IX has sold them to regain the Papal State.

Not to mention the removal of a bishop, even if all of them are removed, it is a minor problem. Without a divine aura, they are not adversaries of the government.

Seeing the original indignant bishops calmed down, Monterey knew he was finished.

Accidentally, it turned out to be the chicken among the tamarins. At this time, he had no courage to justify.

If you confess your guilt, you can take it lightly. If you continue to fight, it will be light to die, and the whole family will be unlucky.

Don't think that there is no strain in Europe. Even if you ca n’t reach the nine members of the strain, it ’s still necessary to crack down on his family.

Looking at Monterey, who pleaded guilty, Pius IX was very satisfied with his prestige.

After no objections, Prime Minister Felix was called out.

Under the testimony of God, the Austrian government, represented by Pius IX on behalf of the Holy See, and Felix, signed a transfer agreement.
