According to Franz's previous plan, he should rush to Vienna now, take the victorious army to be crowned emperor, and then concentrate on dealing with Hungary.

As for Bohemia, as mentioned earlier, the uprising in Bohemia was very weak, so weak that the local troops were enough to suppress it.

Moreover, in order to prevent accidents from happening, Franz specially mobilized heavy troops to carry out a saturation attack.

In addition, Franz's vacation strategy also played a very important role. Since transportation at this time was quite expensive and inconvenient (compared to later generations), not many college students were willing to go to Prague to risk their lives.

If it weren't for Palacki's charisma and leadership, they wouldn't be able to recruit hundreds of college students.

The absence of these students leads to a very loose structure of the entire team. After all, the adult world only talks about pros and cons.

Without these students charging ahead and acting as lubricants, the rebel teams would be nothing but disorganized sand.

In fact, the reason why Vienna's parade was so weak was because it lacked this backbone, making it extremely loose and even vulnerable.

However, this does not mean that the participation of students will have any impact on the outcome. Franz is conducting a saturation strike, and their participation will not be helpful except for increasing casualties.

College students in this era are too precious, and Franz does not want to waste their lives.However, relatively speaking, those Prague University students who participated in the rebellion were Franz's key targets.

In fact, there is no contradiction between the two, because kindness to the enemy is one's greatest cruelty.

The momentum of the Prague uprising at this time was mostly created by the French and British. In addition to them, the Hungarians also hoped that the momentum would be as strong as possible.

However, the reality is that they cannot make any trouble at all. The rebel team can barely number a few thousand people, but not to mention the mercenaries sent by Franz, even without reinforcements, Prince Windischgratz still has [-] to [-] troops. It's enough to suppress them.

The reality is that Prince Windischgratz fell into Franz's provocation. He did not want those mercenaries to steal his limelight, and the Bohemian Front could not afford to lose face.

Needless to say, the outcome of the Prague Rebellion. The military talents of Palacki and Huss were not even close to each other. Not to mention counterattacking hundreds of thousands of troops, they could not even hold on for a day.

However, this was enough, enough for Prince Windischgratz to lose his command due to negligence of duty.

After all, the combat order was issued by Archduke Karl himself. Archduke Karl was not only Prince Windischgratz's old boss, but also represented the royal family and the imperial government.

Prince Windischgrätz's behavior had crossed the line, and Franz took advantage of him to show his authority.

In addition, there are some reasons. First, the prince's self-respecting behavior of raising bandits is disgusting. Second, his military level is really limited, and Franz does not want him to waste the lives of Austrian soldiers.

In fact, Prince Windischgratz did not have a professional background, and her actual command level cannot reach the average level, and can only be described as poor.

The battles he won were often unremarkable, but the battles he lost were full of flaws.

Most of the wins were crushing games, with tens of thousands of regular troops carrying heavy weapons and cavalry facing thousands of improvised militiamen.

The loss was outrageous, comparable to the previous General Li Qi who was in the Venetian region.

In short, he relies more on the shadow of his ancestors and the face of his father-in-law than on his ability.

However, Prince Windischgrätz is not someone who can be compared to Duke Fantero and Lieutenant General Molka. Although the latter may be considered a great nobleman in Vienna, he is still not worth mentioning compared with the real local powerful.

Franz could only adopt milder methods against him, after all, the other party did not make any serious mistakes.Franz also thought about the candidate to replace him later, and that was Prince Felix Schwarzenberg.

In fact, Prince Felix Schwarzenberg is the brother-in-law of Prince Windischgratz. According to the relationship of interests, the position of commander-in-chief of the Bohemian Army is still controlled by their family.

This can minimize resistance and will not cause other nobles to be overly vigilant.

But in fact, Prince Felix Schwarzenberg is an outstanding military strategist. After all, not everyone can be Marshal Radetzky's staff officer.

Secondly, Prince Felix Schwarzenberg and Prince Wendy Schwarzenberg have a bad relationship. The former feels that the latter is too incompetent.

Compared with Prince Windischgratz, Prince Felix Schwarzenberg is less selfish. The latter is a radical reformist and has a very tough attitude.

This kind of person is what Franz needs most at this time, and this is also paving the way for future reforms.

Prince Felix Schwarzenberg's status was sufficient, but due to Franz's intervention, the Italian battlefield ended too quickly, so the former actually lacked merit compared to the same period in history.

Franz handed over the Bohemian Legion to him in order to allow him to accumulate military merit as soon as possible.

At this time, Franz encountered a little trouble. In fact, from a certain perspective, this should not be a trouble, but a kind of happiness.

As revolutions broke out in other parts of Europe, the German nationalists in Frankfurt were not idle either.

These people planned to piece together the entire German nation into an empire, and letting the mighty general Frederick William IV of Prussia conquer Denmark was just their first step.

This group of people is also preparing to further expand the living space of the Germans and instigate West Germany (the Netherlands) to take back their own land.

This group of people set their sights on French Belgium, which made King William II of the Netherlands very worried.

To be honest, although it is said to be the Principality of Belgium, it is actually the territory of the French.Netherlands

William II's first reaction was to suppress, but the nationalists in the Netherlands were far more powerful than he imagined.

The suppressive troops sent out by Wilhelm II quickly joined the ranks of the nationalists.

At the same time, bad news came one after another in the German region, and even his most valued lover advised him not to act rashly. As a result, William II directly became a deflated eggplant.

In fact, Franz also contributed to this. On the other hand, the former King Leopold I of Belgium was planning a big event.

After the fall of the Orleans Dynasty, Leopold I's life became extremely difficult, especially because the French Provisional Government's attitude was too tough and arrogant for him to accept.

Officials sent by the French Provisional Government requested to directly receive the Principality of Belgium. The French took it for granted, but this was something that Leopold I simply could not accept.

The British were unreliable, the French were unreliable, and as for the Dutch, Leopold I could not accept them emotionally, let alone in terms of their actual rights.

So Leopold I, who was passionate about democracy and freedom, naturally approached the Frankfurt Constituent Assembly.

In fact, Leopold I himself was a German. He came from the Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld family.
