The War Court and Lap Pillow, Austria's Mandate of Heaven

Chapter 1094 Disgraced
The power shown by the Austrian Empire in the German Civil War frightened the princes, and the arrogant National Assembly was defeated in a crushing manner.

Some princes still can't believe it, because the National Assembly is so big that they feel very satisfied just by eating some of the National Assembly's legacies.

In fact, when Ludwig III spoke, the Austrian guards present started to move, but Franz waved his hand to stop him.

Franz is very well-educated, and he naturally has his own reasons for not respecting the other party.

"Open your eyes and take a look first."

"I do not watch!"

Ludwig III roared angrily.

Franz sighed helplessly, and then said to Bordeaux.

"Mr. Bordeaux, please read it to everyone."

"As you command! My Majesty."

"Hesse-Darmstadt, Ludwig III colluded with Eduard Simson to overthrow all orthodox dynasties and establish a constitutional government.
In the counter-insurgency war, he provided 678 soldiers and 13 million thalers to the rebels, and destroyed the railway in order to delay the counter-insurgency process, causing the death and injury of 3 our soldiers and civilians. He also destroyed a train and caused at least railways were damaged.
The total direct losses amounted to 1000 million florins.”

As soon as Bordeaux opened his mouth, Ludwig III's body softened, and he slumped in his seat unable to speak a word.

The label of conspiring to overthrow the orthodox dynasty was too big. If it weren't for the fact that there was no tradition of killing kings in Germany, he would have thought he was dead.

Fortunately, this is the German region, but if this big hat is removed, his position as Grand Duke will definitely be gone. Without any use value, his future life will undoubtedly be extremely gloomy.

Almost all the members of the National Assembly are in the hands of the Austrians, so now Franz says whatever he says, and they have no ability to refute it.

In addition, the butts of these monarchs are indeed not very clean, and there is a lot of dirty stuff on them. Especially these small countries are already weak, so they have to work hard on diplomacy.

"You are not worthy of my respect, and you are not worthy of being here. Someone, please get this gentleman out."

Ludwig III sat slumped in the chair, and the attendants behind him said nothing. After all, they had no place to speak here, not to mention that Ludwig III's affairs could not be cleared up at all.

Then Franz pulled out a few more files. The monarchs of the small countries who had just jumped out to oppose the merger of the same clan were all ashen-faced at this time.

However, Franz did not directly ask Bordeaux to read it out, but once again looked at the monarchs of small countries who opposed the merger of the same clan.

"Does anyone else have any comments?"

The monarchs of the small countries who were jumping up and down before had already lost their temper. Some of the quick-reacting ones had even begun to flatter Franz.

"His Majesty the Emperor is wise! It is precisely because of the division of power and land that has led to the decline of the government and the weakening of the country in small countries like ours that we have given opportunities for rebellion."

"His Majesty the Emperor is wise!"

"His Majesty Franz must have seen this hidden danger before supporting the merger of the same clans. We can't live up to His Majesty's kindness!"

"The merger of the same clan can concentrate our efforts on big things and reduce waste. Why didn't we think of it?" "Not only that! It can also enhance our strength and consolidate our political power. This way we don't have to be led by the nose by those businessmen and bankers!"

The sound of praise made William IV's eyelids jump, and the looks of the monarchs of the small countries made him feel on pins and needles.

"I support the merger of the same clans!"

William IV stood up and said without hesitation after thinking briefly.

At this time, coupled with the statement of the King of Prussia, it basically means that the motion to merge with the same clan has been passed. As long as Austria and Prussia agree, no one in the German region has the ability to overturn it.

Those monarchs of small countries who had not previously stood up to oppose the merger of the same clan, seeing that the matter was a foregone conclusion, all jumped out to express their support.

"Actually, I don't want to be the king for a long time. The country should still be handed over to talented people!"

"That's right, they are all brothers. Who is the king?"

"Same for me. I lack the talent to rule. Now I can abdicate and let others go. From now on, I can climb mountains, hunt, and travel around the world."

These people also look away. After all, as long as they are members of the royal family, they can always enjoy the treatment that others can only dream of.

But if someone is labeled as a deviant like Ludwig III, even if he doesn't die, he may never be able to get ahead.

Countries of the same clan quickly recommended a new king on their own. The Hesse family was in a special situation. The Grand Duchy of Hesse was the strongest and the country had the highest level. However, the bad things done by Ludwig III had already made Hesse Sen-Darmstadt was completely disqualified.

So the new King of Hesse fell on the ruler of Hesse-Kassel, Friedrich Wilhelm I. In fact, in addition to the King of Hesse-Kassel, he also had another successor from the Holy Roman Empire. The title of Imperial Elector.

Therefore, his election was considered to be Franz's preparation for the revival of the Holy Roman Empire. After all, the Habsburgs themselves did not believe that they had no such plan.

Then comes the important issue of the ownership of the four free cities. You must know that each of the four free cities is extremely wealthy and has a fatal attraction for any country in the German region. After all, no one can have trouble with money and power.

However, only the four major powers and the Austrian Empire are eligible to get involved in the four free cities. This is very interesting. How can the five countries be divided into four cities that are not connected?
It seems that no matter how you divide it, it will offend people, and it is unreasonable no matter how you divide it. Any exclusion would cause dissatisfaction unless the Austrian Empire voluntarily gave up and the four free cities were divided among the four great powers.

But what does Austria gain by doing this? It's just some false reputation and an experience of being in a position of power.

Who can guarantee that the four major powers will not join forces to restrict Austria after acquiring the four free cities? After all, they had done this during the Holy Roman Empire.

In the eyes of many people, the cancellation of the four free cities was a bad move by Franz. According to the theory that existence is reasonable, Franz was going against the will of nature and could only shoot himself in the foot.

To sum it up, it’s a good thing for young people to have ambitions, but don’t be too arrogant and be careful that you can’t get enough and walk around in circles.

However, Franz didn't feel that he was just out of breath. He had been planning for this for at least eighteen years. In his eyes, these princes and generals who thought they were scheming and scheming, and the nobles and nobles of Tianhuang were the challengers.

After the proposal to cancel the four free cities was passed, Franz did not raise the issue of distribution, but changed the subject.

"It's time for the Putan War to end."
