After leaving Vienna, Anna and her group headed north towards Brandenburg without any pause. Just as Anna and her group arrived at the Austrian border, Werner, who was escorting Anna, spoke surprisingly to Anna.
:
"His Highness, we are not far from the Prussian border, but according to His Highness's instructions, everything from entering the Prussian border must be safe. Therefore, I think our route is worse than change!"
Anna, who was sitting in the carriage, looked stunned when she heard Warner's words.
Warner is right. Louise is worried that Anna is attacked by some people in Prussia, and in this way, those remote areas on the Prussian border are undoubtedly the best areas to start. After all, if Anna is in these
If an unexpected happens in the border area, local officials can completely shift the responsibility to other places.
"If we don't walk the main road, where will we go?"
Anna asked to Werner.
The Prussian senior officials knew very well that to get rich, they should first build roads, and the primary condition for a strong country was to build roads. After all, a well-connected and flat road can not only strengthen trade exchanges in various places, but also provide convenience for military mobilization of the army.
Of course, not only the Prussians understand this, but also the Austrians understand that Prussia and Austria have competed for so many years, and both sides have built many major roads between Brandenburg and Vienna, and captured Bohemia in Prussia and seized it.
After part of Austria's territory, the arrival of these territories was renovated by the Prussians. In this way, you can not only go directly to Vienna but also to Brandenburg along this road.
This road was personally named "The Road of Hope" by William. Of course, it is unknown whether the hope on the name of this road has a different meaning. However, many Austrians have always called this road "The Road of Ambition" for this road.
", In the eyes of the Austrians, William's purpose of building this road is very simple, which is to provide him with a convenient and fast road to attack Vienna in the future.
Werner asked to change the itinerary because of this road of hope. This road is valued by the upper Prussian levels, and the road can accommodate four carriages to travel at the same time. It can be said that in this era, such a road is absolutely unique. Of course, this is built.
The roads of Prussia also cost a great price. There are a large number of corpses buried under the road. Of course, these corpses were not from Prussian civilians, but mainly those prisoners of war captured in Prussia's previous wars!
In the war, prisoners of war captured by the enemy have two ways to be redeemed. One is to redeem these prisoners of war by the state, and the other is to private redemption. These two ways are also determined by the tragic extent of the war.
If the enemy has too many prisoners of war or the ransom is beyond their ability, then these prisoners of war can only count on their families to pay the ransom to redeem themselves, but in this way, if the family has some savings or nobles, they can certainly be redeemed.
But most civilians and some poor people had no choice.
For these prisoners of war, the Prussians never kept them for free to eat and live, and building roads could undoubtedly make these prisoners of war very useful.
Of course, if both parties have each other's captives in their hands, they can also be exchanged.
However, because the early stages of the project, the monarchs of Pu'ao and all dynasties have done a lot, William paid a lot of money for this road, at least within an acceptable range.
"His Highness, we walked from here to Caprice, and then went from Caprice to Prahadice. After arriving at Prahadice, we took a detour to Vorine to Pearson. After arriving at Pearson, we headed straight for the first time.
Dresden. It is already the mainland of Prussia, and I think it can ensure your safety!”
After hearing Warner say this, Anna thought for a while and agreed to what Warner said. The most dangerous thing on the whole route is the original Austrian territory occupied by Prussia, followed by the Bohemia region.
After all, these areas have not been ruled by Prussia for a long time, and the dangers along the way are also expected.
Soon in the afternoon of that day, Anna and her group arrived at the Prussian border. When the Prussian soldiers at the border outpost saw a carriage passing by with the Prussian royal flag, the outpost lined up to greet Anna and her group, and at the same time, they were also quick.
Send a messenger to Budjeevice, Czech Republic.
When Dessau learned that Anna and his group had entered the Prussian border, although he was prepared, Dessau was still surprised by the speed of Anna and his group. You must know that Anna and others' actions were only more than Elsterner
The informant sent was just a beat slower.
"Send people immediately to secretly monitor the course of His Highness's convoy!"
Dessau immediately sent people to monitor Anna's whereabouts, and Dessau immediately met with the person in charge of Locks who sent to the Czech Republic Budjeevice.
"Branton, the frame of His Highness the Queen has entered the border. I have sent someone to monitor their whereabouts. This time I will only provide you with five hundred people. The rest depends on your own abilities!"
Hearing Dessau's words, Brandon, who was a close confidant of Locks, hurriedly said:
"Thank you for your cooperation, please rest assured. This time, with the troops sent by the Marshal, we can mobilize more than 1,000 people in total. There is absolutely no problem in dealing with His Highness's 200 guards!"
Listening to Brandon's words, Dessau was not relieved by Brandon's promise, but frowned and said to Brandon:
"Branton, don't be careless. I believe that since Locks can send you, then the smart Queen's Highness must have sent someone to protect the queen in secret. You have to be in your heart.
There are some ideas, and if you fail, then I will send troops to wipe out all of you as agreed with Locks!"
As he said that, Marshal Dessau's face showed a sharp look.
Seeing the expression on Dessau's face, Brandon was also secretly shocked. As Locks' confidant, he naturally knew his mission. At the same time, he also knew the danger of his trip. Now Dessau's words
It was still echoing in his ears. It was obviously also reminding him that if he could not fulfill his mission, he would definitely be dead!
After Brandon left, Dessau was still a little worried, and he started back and forth in his office.
After leaving the command center in Dessau, Brandon immediately went to his own gathering point in the city of Budjeevice, Czech Republic. In the city of Budjeevice, Czech Republic, a total of 800 powerful people from the Locks party.
The dead soldiers in their house.
"This operation has already issued a death order. If it fails, it will be successful. I think you have heard of our mission this time, but in order for your family to be not implicated, I will not be able to do this operation.
I can’t tell you openly, in short, everyone will follow my commands at that time!”
Although these dead soldiers sent by the great powers are trustworthy people, it is obvious that the nobles of each family did not tell these dead soldiers who their targets were. After all, the danger of this trip is too great. It is difficult to guarantee these
No one among the dead soldiers will have any strange intentions.
Therefore, except to warn them to obey Brandon, these dead men from the rest of the families still knew nothing about the purpose of the trip.
After listening to Brandon's words, these people did not object.
These people all know their identities. They are nothing more than killers in the captive families of major powerful families. The meaning of their survival is to do things that are not easy to see for the powerful people they serve. Dealing with life and death is even more important.
A common place.
Seeing that these people did not raise any objections, Brandon's face relaxed and then continued:
"This time we will receive support from another group of people. Don't ask too much, just complete the task with peace of mind. The rewards for this task are generous. I think everyone has received the promises of their respective owners when they come.
, I won’t say more!”
After saying that, Brandon ended his meeting with these people.
....................................
"Werner, why do I feel someone following us along the way!"
Although she was sitting in the carriage, Anna was still very nervous, and this mentality directly led to her feeling that she seemed to be being peeped at all times.
"His Highness, it is true. We have found that someone is following us! But for now, we are not suitable to deal with these tails, because our whereabouts are very obvious on this road. If we deal with those tails here,
, then the enemy will definitely send people to come again, so we will deal with these tails behind us after we arrive at Caprice!”
When Anna, who was sitting in the carriage, nodded when she heard Warner say this.
In the blink of an eye, two days passed, Anna and others arrived in Caplice, and Brandon also led his people to sneak into Caplice in batches.
For Brandon, it is not a good choice to attack Caplice, because Caplice is also a relatively prosperous city, and it will be quite conspicuous to attack here.
So Brandon was waiting, and he was waiting for Anna and his group to leave Caplice to continue on the road.
At the same time, after arriving in Caplice, Anna and her group stayed for a day. During this day, Werner did not waste it. He and Louise secretly sent people to protect Anna to connect.
This situation was not discovered by others, after all, the people sent by Louise are also very professionals to some extent.
After Caplice set out again, Werner had quietly ordered everyone with him to stay alert. After leaving Caplice City, they did not continue to follow the original route but headed to Vitzioni in the northwest direction.
.
By the time Anna and her group arrived at a small town between Caplice and Vitzini, Brandon had gathered all the eight hundred people under her, and the five hundred people sent by Dessau were also
I have arrived not far from the town.
Warner quietly held the saber tightly. The scouts he sent had sent back the news, that was that there were a large number of armed personnel gathering behind them, all of whom were riding war horses and trying to throw them at speed.
It is obviously impossible to get rid of these people.
"Prepare for the fight!"
Werner, who was riding on the horse, immediately shouted at the cavalry around him.
The cavalry then surrounded Anna's carriage in the center, and Werner personally led a hundred cavalry to block the front line of the carriage.
Soon, eight hundred messy-clad cavalry appeared not far ahead of Warner. Although the dress of these people was not uniform, Warner still felt murderous and disciplined in these people.
Discipline is very rare for the death warriors to appear. After all, these death warriors rarely act collectively. But don’t forget that these death warriors are used by major families to protect their families’ safety, and every death warrior is
I have experienced the most rigorous training in the army.
Therefore, it is not surprising that discipline is present in these dead men.
Warner's face was very serious. He looked at these enemies from afar, and his lips were tightly pursed together.
"attack!"
When he saw the royal guards setting up a formation in front of him, Brandon knew that these people had discovered the whereabouts of his and others, but Brandon didn't care. His subordinates from various major families were good players
, otherwise they would not have been sent here by various families.
So after just reorganizing the formation, Brandon waved his sword forward and shouted at the dead soldiers beside him.
Hearing Brandon's order, except for a hundred dead soldiers from the Rocks family who did not take any action, the rest of the people rushed towards the enemy opposite.
The sound of horse hooves was deafening on this small plain, and Werner's expression became more and more cautious. When he saw that the enemy was less than three hundred meters away from him and others, Werner also shouted loudly:
"The first team follows me to attack, and the second team protects His Highness's carriage!"
Hearing Werner's voice, the hundred royal guards cavalry who followed him quickly mobilized the war horses under their crotch to launch a counterattack towards the attacking enemy, while another team protected the royal family near Anna's carriage.
Fifty people from the guards left the war horses and stood on the ground and formed a gun formation. The other fifty people pulled a little distance backward to break into the battle as the situation changed.
The collision between one hundred cavalry and seven hundred cavalry can be said to be quite shocking. At least if you look down from above, everyone will be worried about Warner's hundred men.
In fact, Werner did not act recklessly. After joining the five hundred people sent by Louis, the five hundred people followed quietly behind the team. As long as the battle here lasted for a long time, Werner's reinforcements were
