As winter turns to spring, the melting snow makes the roads muddy. A troop is advancing with difficulty, and yes, this is the Vienna City Defense Forces conducting field training.
The old soldiers couldn't bear this hardship, so Albrecht very understandingly approved them to stay, and unconsciously the command of this unit changed.
"Stop advancing, set up camp!"
Albrecht's order sounded. As the Vienna City Defense Force, it was impossible for them to run far, and the field training was only 180 kilometers.
"Franz, we can't go any farther. Otherwise, there's an accident in Vienna, and we won't be able to deal with it in time!"
Franz nodded and let the revolution break out in Vienna, but it did not mean that the revolution in Vienna would be successful!
The main force of the city defense army has been brought out, and there are more than 5,000 troops left behind on the surface, but the actual combat effectiveness is pitiful.
If someone wants to rebel, it is impossible to miss this opportunity, after all, such opportunities are rare.
"Well, the news should have been sent back at this time. How is the situation of the troops?"
Albrecht shook his head and said, "Not so good! We pulled them out for training at this time, and I guess they are all scolding their mothers in their hearts."
This is inevitable, and whoever encounters this kind of thing will have the same result. Franz thought of a way that was not a solution: "Then give them a day off and go out hunting to improve their food."
This is a bad idea. If this army is not 9,000 people, but 900 people, it is possible that the prey can really improve the food.
Now, even if there are more prey in the mountains, it is not enough for so many people. But it's good to let everyone relax, and Albrecht has no objection.
Time flies, the Labor Protection Act, which the Vienna government was supposed to implement on March 1, 1848, was indefinitely shelved, and what was worse was that the government did not give a clear explanation.
The inaction of the Vienna government greatly disappointed the working class, which gave the bourgeoisie an opportunity.
The cost of disinformation is the lowest, and under the manipulation of the revolutionaries, the working class believes that the capitalists have bought the government and their interests have been betrayed.
The situation in Vienna was very unfavorable for the government, and by March 4, 1848, news of the success of the French February Revolution had spread in Vienna.
Under the manipulation of the capitalists, citizens, workers and students of Vienna took to the streets to demonstrate on March 5.
Under the banner of anti-starvation, anti-economic crisis, anti-dictatorship and anti-corruption, the representatives of the parade submitted a petition to Ferdinand I, calling for the dismissal of Metternich's cabinet, the implementation of constitutionalism, and the abolition of serfdom...
It is very interesting that the Labor Protection Law was not proposed. Obviously, the representative in charge of drafting the petition at this time has betrayed the working class.
None of this request is acceptable to Prime Minister Metternich, and the petition is naturally impossible to pass.
As for His Majesty's wishes, of course, it was represented by the Council of Regents. Many of them really wanted Prime Minister Metternich to get out, but other conditions were not acceptable to them.
For their own benefit, everyone stood together for the time being.
At this time, except for the radicals, most people were not thinking about revolution.
Including the bourgeoisie, they just want to cut flesh from the aristocracy to get through this crisis and are not ready for revolution.
…
The carriage passed through the narrow streets, which were lined with small earthen houses, and a pungent smell came to my face.
The carriage stopped in front of a small house, and a young man in gorgeous clothes stepped out of the carriage, and when he stepped on it, he felt soft, and when he looked down, it turned out to be animal viscera.
"Hure!"
Cursing very depressed, the young man knocked on the courtyard door, and the carriage had already left first.
There is no way, the secret police in Vienna are not idle, and they are doing business.
At this time, the slum is the safest place, with the chaotic environment and criss-crossing alleys, where the police force is the weakest.
The courtyard door opened, and a naked man walked out. After looking around, he made sure that no one was following him, and let him in.
"Jack, you are finally here, everyone is waiting for you!"
The young man named Jack frowned, the disgust in his eyes flashed away, and said with a smile: "Sorry Cole, the enemy's nose is too smart, in order to get rid of them, I have to be careful!"
Cole was closing the door, didn't notice Jack's expression, and continued: "It doesn't matter, you really have to be careful at this time, let's start when you come!"
"Gentlemen, the time for revolution is ripe, and it is impossible for the reactionary government to agree to our demands.
The Metternich government has deceived us again, and there is no need to endure any longer at this time.
The Paris Revolution has been victorious, now is our turn, and now is the best chance.
The city defense army is training in the field, and if they want to return, it will take two days at the earliest..."
A man in gray clothes said embarrassingly: "Mr. Jack, I'm afraid the time is not ripe to launch an uprising. Although the city defense army is training in the field, there are still 5,000 people left behind. We can't..."
Jack frowned. He didn't like being refuted, especially those he despised.
If it weren't for the capitalists behind the scenes who needed them to launch an uprising and put pressure on the government at this time, he would not have come to meet the workers' representatives at this time.
According to his ideas, it is good that the revolution is directed by decent people like them, and it is good that these untouchables obey the command obediently.
However, now is the time for them to give their lives. They have little prestige among the working class and can only rely on the leaders of these labor movements.
Jack explained impatiently: "Don't worry, Mr. Powell, we have secretly purchased a batch of weapons, as long as there is something in our hands, are you still afraid of those old soldiers
Besides, the army is not our enemy, except for the noble officers, most of them are the same toiled masses as you, we can totally…”
Obviously, they are all revolutionaries in name, but in fact they are not all the way. The proletariat and the bourgeoisie are inherently opposed to each other.
It's just that in this era, the proletarian revolutionary organization has not yet been established, and it is mainly dependent on the existence of the bourgeois revolutionary party.
In the end, they were persuaded, perhaps because they were forced by reality. A large number of unemployed people are waiting for rice to take the pot
