Struggle in Russia

Chapter 517 Depression

Wendisch Gretz was shocked, completely unable to figure out how Schwarzenberg did all this, and even wondered if the other party blackmailed him.

So is Schwarzenberg blackmailing him?

Certainly not. Schwarzenberg is not kidding on such crucial issues. He knew very well that with Wendisch Gretz's frizzy character, once he was not bluffed, the consequences would be unpredictable.

So Schwarzenberg didn't dare to joke. After being threatened by Duke Alexander Gorchakov, he first contacted Wendisch Gretz's subordinates and the governors of various places. After getting the desired result, he ran to talk to Wen Dischgratz's showdown.

"Don't believe me?" Schwarzenberg sneered, "You can ask first to see if I'm lying! See how many people in Austria are as self-righteous as you!"

Wendisch Gretz's face became more and more ugly, because Schwarzenberg's expression was too calm, as if he was determined by him, which made him wonder if his subordinates had betrayed.

He was very hesitant, he wanted to really ask first, but also wanted to compete with Schwarzenberg desperately before talking. These two thoughts kept intertwining in his mind one after another, but in the end he gave in.

Wendisch Gretz actually knew long ago that his subordinates did not fully support him, even if he led them to quell the rebellion in Prague, even if he is now the last military pillar in Austria. But these people did not follow him completely, especially after arriving in Vienna, more and more people began to tend to support Schwarzenberg, and they believed that the latter was more promising.

This is undoubtedly a great blow to Wendisch Gretz. After all, he is the first person to rebuild Austria, but what is depressing is that even though he has done so much, few people really recognize him. On the contrary, the big guy was more convinced by Schwarzenberg who didn't do anything.

Undoubtedly, Wendisch Gretz was very unconvinced. More than half of his arrogance and stupid actions were caused by wanting to be angry with Schwarzenberg. He thought he was no worse than Schwarzenberg, so he had to compete with him in everything, and then got into the dead end.

And now Schwarzenberg told him the cruelest truth with the bloody reality, and he really sprinkled a handful of salt on his wound. Suddenly Wendisch Gretz was depressed.

He just stayed on the spot so stupidly, without saying a word, and didn't respond to him. Even if Schwarzenberg left, he still stayed there until night, when he was in front of his adjutant When I came to ask him to have dinner, I realized that this high-spirited commander seemed to be ten years older!

I just heard him muttering: "Do you think I am really inferior to Felix? Why does everyone listen to him, why I have done so much... why I work so hard, but still no one listens to me!"

The adjutant could not answer this question, because even he felt that his superior was indeed inferior to Schwarzenberg. His officer is good at everything, but he is too easy to get into the horns and too extreme. It's okay when you're enthusiastic, but once you anger him, it's even colder than an iceberg when you're cold.

No one likes such a ruthless and extreme person, and no one wants to see such an extremely ruthless person control the power of the country. Maybe Wendisch Gretz is all about the good of Austria, but the way and method are too extreme and too unacceptable.

Wendisch Gretz suffered a heavy blow, no longer the high-spirited spirit he had just arrived in Vienna, appearing dull and lifeless. Especially when he participated in the highest-level political meeting in Austria, those dignitaries who had just abandoned him couldn't help sighing when they saw him like this.

To be honest, they were also very entangled when they abandoned Wendisch Gretz. After all, there was a period of time when this person performed really well, and they once thought he was the one who could turn the tide.

But then his performance became more and more outrageous and outrageous, so they had to choose to give up. It can be said that as much as the previous hope, the subsequent disappointment. And now,

After hearing that Schwarzenberg had a showdown with Wendisch Gretz, it was very distressing to see him who was hit hard.

Anyway, everyone's mood is not beautiful, I don't know why they came to such a field, or lamenting that it is really time and fate!

Compared with Wendisch Gretz's twilight, Schwarzenberg seems to have bloomed a second spring. Although his expression can't be seen, those tiny details show that his flower has bloomed!

"The top priority now is to eliminate the rebels in Vienna. We can only talk about other things if we recover the capital and deal a fatal blow to the rebels!"

"I hope that General Wendisch Gretz and General Jeracic will cooperate sincerely and work together to recover the capital as quickly as possible... As for later, I and my Russian allies have reached an agreement that we agree that His Majesty is no longer suitable to continue to lead Austria Now, the Crown Prince Franz Karl should succeed to the throne..."

With Schwarzenberg's strategy passed, it is impossible for Wendisch Gretz to object any more. He can only watch his uncle step on his head to reach the top, and he is a poor stepping stone .

The stepping stone Wendisch Gretz is naturally full of displeasure, but there is nothing he can do about it. Before this meeting, he may still have a one-in-ten-thousand chance of fluke, but the statements of various forces at this meeting undoubtedly made him ashamed. He knew I can no longer compete with Schwarzenberg, and I will never surpass him.

The depressed Wendisch Gretz didn't know that at almost the same time, another person who had just arrived in Vienna also came to the same conclusion. He said to Prince Alexander Gorchakov:

"From now on, our opponent should be Schwarzenberg. This person should not be underestimated. For the time being, we can overwhelm him because of our national strength, but once Austria regains its vitality, this person is bound to retaliate. We have to guard against it." !"

Prince Alexander Gorchakov looked at Li Xiao's immature face with a little confusion, always feeling weird about the old-fashioned words that the young Grand Duke said.

Of course, this is not the point. The point is that someone suddenly visited Vienna secretly and brought him a shocking news. He really needs a little time to digest all this.

After a while, he asked: "You mean, the Hungarians are actively preparing for war, and they are likely to counterattack Croatia and Vienna next?"

If someone told him so, Prince Alexander Gorchakov would definitely not believe it, but someone still has some magical powers. If what someone said is true, then the fun will be great!
