Chapter 26, Pig Teammates Rescue Diary
The days of hard work were short-lived, and after more than half a month of polishing, these noble officers finally looked like they had a bit of a military temperament.
At this time, the content of the training also changed, and in addition to the simple physical training, there were also military command classes.
This study is very targeted, and the cases explained are all street fights, which are carefully selected by Franz, and the reason is naturally interested.
Everyone has a military foundation, and it is not difficult to listen to these classes, and compared with the previous physical training, many people are showing great interest.
That's what we're good at, training us as big soldiers, like what?
Albrecht sneered and said, "Okay, I'm done!" You take the squad as a unit, assume that the enemy is attacking Vienna, and draw up a corresponding defensive plan;
Or let's say that the enemy has already occupied Vienna, and we are conducting a counteroffensive, drawing up a corresponding battle plan.
The time is three days, I will give you a score, if you fail the grades, it proves that your military command ability is not up to par, you can only be a reckless man, so go back to participate in physical training! ”
A chill fell from the sky, and many people showed a bitter gourd face, and could only look at their teammates expectantly.
"If you don't have good military command ability, you can only be a reckless man." If you end your military career with this comment, it's a small problem, and the key is that everyone still has face?
Everyone is a young person, who wants to admit that he is a reckless man with no brains?
No one doubted that Albrecht could not do it, and that their family had traditions.
When the Grand Duke Karl carried out military reforms, he did the same thing, turning a group of nobles who he thought unfit to be officers into big soldiers, forcing them to retire themselves.
Those retired aristocratic officers, that is really "no bright future"!
In aristocratic circles, their legends are still circulating, claiming to be the shame of the Austrian aristocracy.
The nobility of the German region retained the tradition of serving in the army, and everyone was trained as an officer from an early age. After more than ten years of hearing and seeing, even if it is a pig, it is also a literate pig!
In short, the Austrian aristocracy in this period has not completely degenerated, and everyone still has a sense of honor.
Even during the Austro-Prussian War, the combat effectiveness of the Austrian army was in the forefront of Europe.
Of course, the city defense army may be an exception, perhaps here represents the lower limit of the Austrian army, and the prosperity of Vienna has corrupted the will of the officers.
Who can say this clearly? The most important thing now is to save these 800 runaway teenagers and pull them back from the brink of degeneration, and the next Vienna March Revolution will not be a problem.
……
"Albrecht, are there any good seedlings among these people?" Franz asked
"I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, the level of these people can only be said to be reluctant, they still have too many debts to make up, let's wait until this knowledge is made up!" Albrecht shook his head and said
"And what about serving as a company platoon officer? Even now, if we put them down to the troops and command a company or a platoon to fight, how much combat effectiveness can we exert? Franz asked with concern
"Your expectations for them are really low, and now the vast majority of them are not suitable to be front-line commanders, if they are reluctantly used, they will probably be able to exert six or seven points of combat effectiveness of a unit." Albrecht thought for a moment and said
After getting this answer, Franz couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, with this combat effectiveness, he could almost cope with the next situation.
"Then let's make up for them again, no matter what their ability is, at least these people are loyal and enthusiastic enough, you don't have to worry about them becoming deserters!" Franz said with a smile
It's not in vain that he came over in person to take a wave, with the city defense army and the royal guard in hand, basically the overall situation has been decided.
"That's right, they're better than the old fritters in the city defense army. But Franz, what's the use of this, and now there will be no war? Are you going to replace those old fritters with them? Albrecht asked, confused
"The impact of the one-time dismissal of so many officers is too great, and we can arrange them to serve as deputies in the army in the name of training.
Then organize an armed training, let them command, and see the effect! Franz lied without changing his face
When he said this, even he didn't believe it, and wasted so much effort just to let these people replace the moths in the city defense army?
Fortunately, this is the European continent. If it was the East, the prince dared to do this, and people's first reaction was: It's not good, the prince wants to rebel!
Franz didn't say anything, and Albrecht didn't bother to ask. Anyway, it was an order given to him by Ferdinand I himself, and Franz was now in charge of the city defense.
There is no need to consider the issue of rebellion, there is no market for doing this in Europe. Besides, Franz didn't have to do anything, and he could be regent in two or three years.
The situation of Ferdinand I is well known to everyone, there can be no next generation, but when the age comes, he will exercise the power of the emperor as the crown prince, which is a few points greater than the power of the current regency committee.
If you want to be the emperor, you can wait for his uncle to hang up! There's no reason for Franz to take the risk?
Otherwise, Albrecht would not have bothered to toss with him? These noble officers won't buy his account like this!
"Okay, whatever you want, anyway, as long as you don't make a mess, I'll cooperate with you!" Albrecht said helplessly
In Albrecht's view, Franz was a teenager who wanted to make a career.
He has also experienced it at this age, and knows that it is useless to oppose it, and the more you don't let him do it, the more he has to do it.
Judging from the current situation, what Franz did was still within the scope of the rules, and he didn't mess around.
Outwardly, Franz was ready to replace the already degenerate aristocratic officers with young ones, which would not cause a strong backlash from the aristocratic class.
This is not out of line in everyone's opinion, anyway, the meat is rotten in the pot, and these nobles also count on this military position to eat.
Perhaps a noble officer was driven home, and his place was either his own son, or brother, or even a distant relative.
If he had promoted civilian officers, Albrecht would not have been so eloquent, and the class position could not be abandoned.
If Franz knew what he was thinking, he would have told him that he was thinking too much. Isn't it to promote civilian officers in this era?
Putting aside other external factors, just looking at military literacy, the two sides are not on the same level.
Unless he is a genius, it will take years to train a soldier who cannot read a lot of characters to become a qualified officer.
