Warlock Royal Family

Chapter 492 Suffering

"As the enemy puts more and more drow and elite troops into the scout battle, our cavalry has been completely pushed into the ten miles around Esztergom. And several denser forests have not been Clean it up, and while the scouts are sure, I think it's possible the enemy has set up an advanced camp in it, as we did before the Battle of Pavia."

"The efficiency of our inland river fleet has been greatly reduced recently due to multiple missions. At the same time, the enemy has concentrated its combat ships as much as possible in the past few days and tried to counterattack our fleet many times. Although our side is still in an absolute advantage, this has also increased Increased the fatigue of our ships and crew."

"There are indications that the enemy's massive attack is imminent."

In the absence of Jones, Sarzastan was in charge of briefings, and he seemed to think that at any moment the Ottomans would storm Esztergom.

Frenzberg didn't think so, but his reasons Ladislaus didn't want to hear: "Time is on the enemy's side, they don't need to rush to attack." [

"It's true. Ice floes will appear on the Danube as soon as November. Although it will affect the enemy's shipping, it is obviously more disadvantageous to our side, which has the advantage of water. Even if they don't attack, our logistics will have problems."

"The enemy must have reached the limit!" Ladislaus retorted.

"Guess, Your Highness, this is just your guess. I don't know how much pressure the Ottomans' logistics will face. I only know that our logistics is about to be overwhelmed. Prague still only has symbolic food shipments. To Bavaria and Saxony’s purchase of grain on credit did not go as expected, and Austria itself could not squeeze out more grain. Excessive mobilization of peasants during the autumn harvest has even caused some sporadic uprisings.”

"Machiavelli assured me that he can last another month. Under the harassment of guerrilla warfare in the enemy's rear, the Ottomans will collapse at any time!" In fact, Machiavelli said under great pressure from Ladis Slaus I can only last for 25 to 30 days at most, and he has no guarantee whether the next food will arrive on time.

Grand Priest Hohenzollern has already killed Killing in Vienna, and Austria has also resisted the task of food transportation, but the scale is not large after all, and the militia of the Archbishop of Wuerzburg can handle it.

In his most recent letter he also mentions that there are still some nobles who openly talk about surrendering to Suleiman.They were all severely fined.

This is also an ominous sign.

"Recently, Deputy Chief Silica has missed two agreed supply plans. Jevich thinks that he is in danger. Although His Royal Highness Jones is going well, with the expansion of his army, I think the enemy will be encircled and suppressed at any time. He Those rabble-rousers can never deal with a thousand Sipahi cavalry." Sazastan's speech rate did not change at all, except when it did not involve the conflict between Austria and the Cuscus Church.He can always speak in the calmest and most indifferent manner.

Ladislaus tried to remain as calm as possible, but he couldn't help feeling worried in the presence of the ever-calm Sarzastan.

Horthy watched the discussion between the Austrian monarch and his subjects with trepidation. Is this the style of the warlock royal family?

Can you slap the monarch in the face so directly?

Although this seems to be the privilege of top civil servants, it is still amazing enough.

If Louis II did not kill such an offender outright, he would certainly have thrown him into limbo in the mountain provinces.

Treat important ministers preferentially.It is easy to say, but it is not difficult to give a little politeness and financial benefits.

But really being able to control one's emotions and listen to the fiercest objections has never been an easy task.

Horthy is not always impressed by Ladislaus's size, although he is already flushed.It seems to have reached the limit.

It is indeed difficult for Ladislaus to control himself, and Sarzastan's attitude is only a small problem.More because of the pressure he faced himself.

He couldn't help doubting his choice, whether the historical lines of the two worlds were really the same, he was somewhat doubtful.

But he didn't lose control. He knew that Sazastan said that because Sazastan was actually in a hurry. [

It cannot be said that his emotion is not for his own destiny, but it is certainly urgent for the destiny of Austria, which is closely related to his destiny.

"Do you have any suggestions, Your Highness Sazastan." In the end, Ladislaus, who was once blushing, also calmed down, and even put a charming smile on his handsome face again.

Of course Horthy believed that the monarch was already extremely angry. If Sazastan's answer below was not appropriate, he would be dispatched to a remote corner, such as the Alps?

Or would Sazastan's strength save him from this fate?

But a big fall from favor is certain, and Horthy wondered for a while whether the vacancy would change his situation if he was kicked out of the State Council.

Although Bohemia is in chaos, it has not experienced the ravages of war after all. An ambitious figure can mobilize more power, so he is still behind in the battle for the seat of the State Council.

Although the Austrian monarchs were very dissatisfied with the help provided by Bohemia, the Bohemia region was still much better than war-torn Hungary.

As for the role of intelligence, Horthy also felt a little uneasy.

After all, I didn't really help much, at least not big enough. Although contacting the enemy's rear was very brave, it was not enough for the members of the State Council.

His competitors also include those powerful factions who control a certain important town. At any time, such people have the highest possibility of getting a high position in the new system.

After all, he now only has a short title.

It would be much better to be able to have multiple positions, Horthy couldn't stop thinking.

That being said, it's not a bad thing for Sazastan to commit suicide.

But Sazastan knew Ladislaus better, he had enough experience, and this smiling face also appeared on the face of the old emperor Maximilian.

The same charm, the same fascination, and the same appearance after being outraged by one of his courtiers.

Although Ladislaus is not a descendant of the old emperor, the great leader of the Habsburg family is so similar to the monarch in front of him.

Sarzastan really knows enough about these Habsburgs, and they are indeed sensible enough for their ideals and careers.

What a great ambition, what a great opportunity now, I must participate and help this project, so now I want to stop you from doing stupid things, stop you from being blindfolded by ego.

"We should ask for negotiations." Both Sarzastan and Ladislaus understood that this was a cosmetic phrase.

"No, you must not surrender to heretics!" Queen Mary, who was also allowed to listen, jumped up, whether it was out of courtesy to the Spanish Supreme or through her goodwill to the Hungarian nobles to establish a relationship, Ladislaus Everyone needs their distant cousin.

"Our Habsburg family will never surrender to heretics." In the latter sentence, Mary said to Ladislaus. [

Her voice was so deep and hoarse that it oppressed Ladislaus.

Marie has been suppressed by her responsibilities to the family all her life, unable to love her husband and Hungary to the fullest and freely. She was very sensitive and angry because of Sazastan's proposal which aroused a special nerve.

She doesn't care about the man in front of her and his ambitions, even the fate of the family and her own life are temporarily separated at this moment, as long as her husband is not dead and worthless, his struggle is not ridiculous of.

Ladislaus could see it in her night-like eyes, as charming as his own.

"I have an army of [-] and an enemy fleet on the Danube. I will never negotiate with heretics." Ladislaus' eyes flicked across the faces of Sazastan and Mary.

Sarzastan opened and closed his lips, but in the end he did not continue to contradict his monarch. (to be continued...)
