Chapter 441 Trieste Fighting Again

"Good time! Immediately inform Kessell-Weiting to act according to the predetermined plan." Ladislaus's spirit was lifted. It is an effective palliative strategy to severely damage the main force of the pirates, and it will be of great help to Austria's coastal defense.

If you don't invest a huge amount of money in the navy for 20 years to solve this kind of thing, don't think about it.

"Check their potions and scrolls, equip armor and weapons." Frundsberg began the final military preparations.

As long as he is present, Frundsberg is naturally the commander of the front enemy.

"Go, go." [

"Hurry up."

According to the response plan that had been formulated long ago, Ladislaus and his men began to move.

Trieste has woken up in the early morning, and some industrious small businessmen on the street have already started doing business.

"The pirates have landed, everyone go back to their homes and close the door."

"Don't worry, Master Wang will be here soon."

Although it was better than talking, Ladislaus still asked his subordinates to speak out to reduce the degree of loss. At this time, it was impossible to talk about keeping it secret, and Hayreddin would not retreat just because someone in the city shouted that there was an ambush.

"Pirates, pirates."

Fortunately, there were not many people on the road, which did not hinder the actions of the Austrian elite.

The Ladislaus headquarters did not immediately leave the hotel for the dock area, but approached the seat of the government in the Port of Trieste.

Although there are still a large number of late civil servants, Ladislaus is satisfied that at least the government does open on time.

Generally speaking, the building complex where the government is located is not only strong, but also has some security personnel here.

In order to prevent the inevitable pirate spies from detecting this trap, the militia troops were not mobilized in advance. This is the key point of the early defense.

In fact, when Ladislaus took out the token and revealed his identity, the bureaucrats at all levels in Trieste didn't know what was going on, and it was just a surprise inspection by the leadership.

Fortunately, the security officer headed here recognized Frenzberg, so the whole process didn't take too long.

Within 10 minutes, Ladislaus had seen the governor who was asking his secretary to give him information on pirates.

"Haleddin. Your Highness, you mean that Hayreddin came in person?!" After confirming that this was not a surprise inspection, the governor took a few minutes to figure out the situation and immediately directed his subordinates like burning his ass. Start defensive work. "Mobilize the militia, ring the bell, ring the bell."

The governor looked very young, not a few years older than Ladislaus, and he was obviously a generation of officials.

Ladislaus is not very clear about the heels of every governor.

Before the vanguard of pirates begins to attack the government gates.Not many militiamen came in. [

Like the useless Port Watchers, the Militia basically doesn't do much.

Although Ladislaus was disappointed, he also understood that it was difficult to defend land against an enemy who could use the sea to maneuver.

The Barbary pirates criss-crossed the Mediterranean, and only a very limited number of raids ashore were repulsed by the garrison.

Either the defenders had the sharpest officers, or the pirates were simply unlucky.

The important towns along the coast are like the city of Venice if there is no naval protection.Or it is the headquarters of a large corps such as Naples, and the others cannot escape the attacks of pirates.

Even the city of Naples, as the location of the Spanish "Italian" Corps, has a very limited range of protection, and many daring pirates with high skills are still able to attack small towns very close to the Spanish Corps.

The limited resources of the Port of Trieste are even more helpless.

It is good, however, that by Ladislaus' strict order the Austrian administration of the port of Trieste was so close to the docklands that the prefect was compelled to guard the most dangerous areas.

Although the early warning measures failed completely, Ladislaus believed that the militia could not perform any miracles.But at least for his own safety, the governor built his office quite solidly.

"Your Highness, we should stick to the wall that separates the city from the docks!" In addition to the early warning system and the militia system, the governor has another achievement. He built a wall between the docks and the city after the last enemy attack.

Separating the docklands from the city reduces the area that pirates can destroy.

It's a good idea, as are the other two failures.

"The wall is well repaired." Ladislas first affirmed the governor's efforts.

"Where, where..." Although the noise caused by the enemy had already been heard, the governor was still overwhelmed by the leaders' boast.

Of course, this is not only because of his desire for power, but also because he saw the murderous and well-trained elite guards of Ladislaus.He was less worried about the threat of pirates.

"The wall is too close to the dock area, and there is not enough security force. By the time we get there, the pirates must have taken control of the city wall." Because of the above, Ladislaus first affirmed the other party's efforts. Rendsberg would point out the problem for Ladislaus.

"The farther away, the more people will be sacrificed outside the wall. I have no choice at all." Ladislaus also understood the governor's explanation.The merchants and nobles near the dock area are the guarantee of his resources and administrative power. If a wall is destined to sacrifice their interests, the governor simply cannot build a city wall.

In fact, he can demolish part of the building, and it is not easy to build such a wall.

"It's not your fault. Governor Gundogan." Ladislaus is still very satisfied with the governor's ability, but he still needs more experience. "But next time, or don't do it, you have already spent [-]% of your effort, just put in more effort."

"Thank you for your understanding, Your Highness. I will definitely continue to work hard in the future." Although in fact, it takes more than "a lot of effort" to repair the city wall a bit further back, but of course this young and handsome governor will not continue to entangle with the leaders. this problem.

He already understood what Ladislaus meant.

"The enemy's forwards can already be seen." The warehouse in the dock area and the wall have obviously fallen into the hands of the enemy, but Ladislaus also said that the enemy will definitely come to attack the seat of the government next. [

"Governor Gundogan, His Royal Highness Frenzberg will take over the defense work, and you and I will take a look at the overall situation." This is the tallest three-story building in the city, although the view from the top platform is actually very good Limited, but somewhat higher.

When Ladislaus went up to the roof, Earl Slam and several of his subordinates had already found a shooting angle here.

They weren't shooting, though, and if they were too impenetrable to begin with, it wouldn't hold the pirates long enough.

It wasn't the robbery that worried Ladislaus the most, but the few flames in the docks. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to the starting point to vote, monthly pass, your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile phone users, please go to read.)
