The War Court and Lap Pillow, Austria's Mandate of Heaven Chapter 33

vienna.

Since Talia had recently eaten too much food and her fat content had increased, Franz decided to supervise her weight loss.

Talia put her hands on the ground, and Franz put his legs around Talia's waist while reading the newspaper.

"As a teacher, you have to lead by example. You are so fat, it will affect the image of the royal family."

"Damn kid... I'm not a physical education teacher." Thalia was obviously very reluctant.

"But the pillow is too soft, it will affect the quality of sleep." Franz said casually, his attention was still on the newspaper.

Due to the crazy investment of Austrian railways, the problem of insufficient pig iron production in Austria was directly exposed.

Seeing business opportunities arise, businessmen will naturally not sit idly by. Within a year, Austria had ten more steel plants.

It is expected that within one or two years, it will surpass Prussia. Of course, there is still a big gap with Britain and France.

But this is a good start for Austria's industrialization.

After the death of the old emperor, the entire Austrian Empire fell into chaos.

In order to relieve the boredom in his heart, Franz continued to tease Talia.

"As the tutor of the royal family, you must be self-disciplined."

"You don't need to tell me, I know it too." Thalia replied angrily, after all, no girl likes to be told that she is fat.

"This is to help you strengthen your core strength. In addition, push-ups can also improve your shape. It can perfectly shape the muscle lines of your shoulders and upper limbs."

After a while, her face was already wet with sweat, and her arms were trembling uncontrollably. Franz knew that she had reached her limit, so he moved his legs away.

"Take a rest, don't force yourself."

"Why don't you do it!" Talia, who had just done 20 push-ups, asked angrily.

"Because I'm stronger than you."

"I do not believe!"

Franz lay on the ground and did 20 push-ups with one hand, and Talia was stunned.

The lighter you are, the easier it is to do push-ups.

Franz's child's body is still very advantageous.

Franz smiled at Talia, whose jaw dropped in shock.

"Fat Thalia."

 …

The news of Franz II's death quickly spread to Prussia, and William III was so happy that he almost fainted.

Because he believes that Austria led by an idiot cannot be compared with his Prussia anyway.

Also happy are the Russian Tsar and the French cabinet. After all, the recent strong rise of the Austrian Empire has made them feel like they are sitting on pins and needles.

The death of Franz II, who had ruled the Austrian Empire for forty years, and the ascension of Ferdinand I, who was mentally handicapped, would undoubtedly have a huge impact on everything in the Austrian Empire.

And how much impact this shock will have on Austria, no one knows now, only that the royal chief adviser who just took office frantically dismissed all the advisers of the former emperor.

Austrian real powers such as Prince Metternich and Kororav had to personally invite Baron Brook back to continue to preside over Austria's debt issue.

As for Ferdinand I's ascension to the throne, some ministers also raised objections, whether it is possible to allow Archduke Franz Karl, who is less ill, to be enthroned, but this will has been recognized by the Habsburg family.

The royal family's orders cannot be changed, so these people can only accept their fate.

They didn't know where the wrecked Austrian ship was going.

Franz read Ambrosius' letter and felt that there was no need to worry if he didn't see the princess.

They can completely regard the trip to Chenla as a tourist vacation. Of course, Ambrosius can think so, but the priests of the Catholic Church will not agree.

So Franz proposed to establish a base first, and as an excuse, use it to help the government and the army suppress bandits.

Don't be in Phnom Penh Port, because that is the sphere of influence of the Vietnamese, it can be in Kampong Xun (that is, Sihanoukville Port in later generations).

At this time, Kampson was just a small and inaccessible fishing village, and the lower the level of education, the easier it was to preach.

The royal family of Chenla will contact you when you gain a firm foothold in Kampong Xun.

Chenla, Phnom Penh port.

The news that Ambrosius and his party killed 14 bandits overnight spread like wildfire.

Banditry in Phnom Penh City was rampant, and the officers and soldiers were helpless. The sound of Ambrosius and his party using rifles was considered to be thunder.

So this rumor is changing in the direction that foreign monks will be able to demonize.

Guan Jinpan also heard the news, and while he ordered the rumors to be blocked, he started to arrange Ambrosius's itinerary.

Guan Jinpan realized that these people were not lambs to be slaughtered, but beasts with sharp fangs.

It's just that he didn't understand why such a group of people traveled thousands of miles to Chenla to be... military observers.

Guan Jinpan only felt that he was a Xiyi and wanted to learn advanced technology, but felt that something was wrong.

He doesn't want to care so much, and now he just wants to give these people a blow.

Let them see, one of the most powerful soldiers in the world, the Chenla Imperial Army.

Outside the city of Phnom Penh, the Chenla Forbidden Army Colonel Field.

This is the school ground of the strongest army in Chenla, the forbidden army.

Their duty is to defend the royal family. The irony is that the royal family is now under the control of the Vietnamese, and King Anzan is not even in the Royal Palace in Phnom Penh.

The Vietnamese also tailored the Chenla Forbidden Army, stipulating that the number of forbidden troops should not exceed 3,000, and they could not be equipped with iron armor.

Even so, the Chenla Forbidden Army still retains their last dignity. This army has never given up training, and it is definitely the strongest army in Chenla at this time.

The weather in Chenla is humid and hot all year round, but the soldiers of the imperial army are still fully armed.

They let out a roar that shook the sky, swung their swords vigorously, stabbed and stabbed with all their strength, and the tip of the spear almost pierced the air.

Hong Bufu, the commander of the Forbidden Army, is very satisfied with the performance of his soldiers, but it is a pity that the state affairs are in decline and there is no way to serve the country.

Guan Jinpan was also very moved. Every time he came to the Forbidden Army Grand Camp, he would sigh, if His Majesty could return home to cheer up, UU Reading www. uukanshu.com Why don't you worry about the east and the west (referring to Vietnam and Siam).

However, all this does not seem to attract the attention of the young man of the foreign race in front of him.

Guan Jinpan decided that he could only use his trump card. He looked at the commander-in-chief of the Forbidden Army. The latter also understood what the director-general of the Foreign Affairs Office meant, but he felt a little bit distressed by the bullet.

The commander of the imperial army, Hong Bufu, gave an order, and four rows of soldiers holding blunderbuss ran over.

Just fifty paces away from the soldiers, there are fifty straw figures with heads replaced by watermelons.

"Drug!"

Custodian soldiers began to introduce gunpowder into the barrel.

"Send medicine!"

The soldiers of the imperial army tamped the gunpowder in the barrel.

"Down the lead..."

After more than ten passwords, Hong Bufu finally gave the order.

"ignition!"

The fifty Chenla Imperial Guards in the first row lit matchlocks, but due to the different lengths and materials of these matchlocks.

In the end, when firing the guns, there was first and then thereafter, which sounded chaotic.

As for these musketeers who can only shoot 3 rounds a year, the hit rate is very poor, and only ten watermelons were blown up.

Seeing the splashed watermelon, Guan Jinpan and Hong Bufu couldn't help shouting.

Seeing that the two superiors were so happy, those forbidden soldiers thought that their owed salary had been settled, so they also cheered together.

A total of four rounds of shooting, 200 rounds destroyed more than 30 watermelons.

Guan Jinpan looked at Ambrosius, hoping to see feelings of surprise, fear, or admiration in the other's eyes, but Ambrosius only had disappointment and disdain in his eyes.

But Guan Jinpan still asked the question he had always wanted to ask.

"Is there any rival in Europe for our strong soldiers in Zhenla?"
