Chapter 705 Luan Tail Flower and Crescent Moon

As long as the frenzy like drunkenness passes, people will wake up.

In fact, the reason why most werewolves followed Fenrir and others to seek rebellion was because they had nowhere to go. The werewolf code deprived them of the opportunity to work. As long as they had a house to live in, food and a stable life, they would be honest.

The problem is that humans want all werewolves to die. In this case, even if the werewolves don't want to resist.

This train will arrive in Vienna around lunch time. It is estimated that this station will stop for an hour. Passengers going to Venice or Florence can get off the train and take a stroll.

It is really necessary to get off the train for a breath of fresh air during long-distance travel, but the real reason is that the relationship between France and Italy has not been very good. After arriving at Vienna Station, the train has to replace the wide gauge with a narrow gauge.

After Qin Shihuang unified China, he implemented the same track for cars, the same text for books, and the same way for travel. Maybe the "track" he said was the track spacing.

The unimpeded trains in France and Germany are blocked when they arrive in Italy. After France's independence, it has been expanding to Italy and occupying Italian land. For this reason, Italy lost a lot of territory.

The Nice region in the south of France has beautiful scenery and is very beautiful, but before the 16th century, it belonged to Italy and was snatched by France. There is also the island of Corsica at the gate of Italy, which was also Italian and closer to Italy, but it was also snatched by France in the end. Although the Italians surrendered when they encountered the British during World War II, the war with Cheese France has not retreated. In May 1940, the German army invaded the French territory in one fell swoop. In less than a month, During the time, France was beaten to the ground one after another. In June, even its own capital, Paris, was captured. At that time, Italy, seeing France's disastrous defeat, could take advantage of the opportunity, so it immediately announced that it would send 320,000 The army launched an attack on France. At that time, the French army stationed on the border between Italy and France was pitifully small, with less than 5 divisions, about 50,000 people, and the fortifications were also at the end of the Maginot Line, and the fortifications were very weak. , logically speaking, such a defense is almost to give Italy a head.

But what happened next made countless people dumbfounded. Instead of breaking through the fragile defense line of the French, the 320,000 troops were beaten to pieces by the French's fierce counterattack. The Italian army was beaten into a panic. The evacuation and eventual attack on France never dare to be mentioned again.

After the French Revolution, Napoleon led the French army to invade Italy, which was ruled by the princes, and claimed to be the emperor of France and the king of Italy. After Napoleon's defeat, Italy was divided again. Later the King of Sardinia unified Italy with the help of the French Emperor Napoleon III.

Corsica belongs to Italy, but the Italians are always bullied by the French, so they turn to the Germans as allies.

Napoleon's "French First Empire" was an era when France was proud and proud, and it almost conquered the whole of Europe.

In August 1769, when Napoleon was born, the handover of the rule of Corsica between France and Genoa had not been completely completed, so Napoleon was also considered a "Genoese" when he was born. Genoa later became the main part of the unified Italy, and Napoleon was regarded by some as "Italian".

But many Italians didn't like Napoleon. When the French army's battlefield moved to Italy, the holy land of art, in 1796, an inevitable search spree began.

In just one year, major cities in Italy faced the fate of being sacked. Napoleon reaped so much that he said, "Except for Turin and Naples, we have taken away all the things of artistic value in Italy."

However, it is not so easy to transport the treasures back to France. After the booty is packed, it departs from the port of Livorno, takes the sea to Marseilles, and then is transferred to barges, passing through countless canals and inland waterways before entering the Seine River .

Later, when the railway was built, the Italians also maintained the principle of "I will never let you have a good time if I can add a little trouble to you" when building the railway tracks. The transportation is convenient, so there is this railway with different axle distances.

Italy is a victorious country in World War II. Yes, they are really a victorious country, but they are a victorious country with restrictions. After the Allied forces landed in Sicily, Italy saw that the situation was not good, so it communicated with the UK in private, so that the UK would not hold the main personnel accountable. The war criminal responsibility is a conditional surrender.

Churchill, worried about British casualties, agreed, and Italy imprisoned Mussolini, withdrew from the Axis, then declared war on Germany, and they were victors.

The Soviet Union and the Germans fought bloody rivers on the Eastern Front. Although the Soviet Union did not inherit the territory of the Byzantine Empire, it inherited the traditional culture of the Eastern Roman Empire. There was no "cheese" and "macaroni" on the Eastern Front, only ice and snow and hail of bullets.

It was a warrior's battle, and it was a brutal one at the same time.

Those who have seen the horrors of war do not want to see another war. The war is wonderful only when it ends. I hope that the Second World War will be the last world war.

In the 16th century, not only did France's ambitions for Italy go bankrupt repeatedly, but the domestic Burgundy region was in jeopardy due to inheritance disputes with Spain. Under such a premise, France opposed the religious fanaticism of the Middle Ages and chose to form an alliance with the pagan Ottoman in the face of national interests.

It was notorious in Europe at the time, so everyone named it the League of Blasphemy.

When the Arab Empire rose rapidly in the 8th century, the Byzantine Empire relied on Constantinople and the Golden Bay to defend the Arabs from invading Europe by land. However, the Arabs expanded rapidly with the power of religion, and Spain was also their territory at that time.

These Arabs crossed the Pyrenees to attack France. In the 8th century, the relationship between wizards and Muggles was not so tense, and the wizards of Beauxbaton also participated in the war to protect the country.

In this war, Frank's Merovingian royal family did not show any performance, but Palace Chancellor Charlie became famous in the first battle.

Fortunately for him, the Spanish governor who was in charge of commanding the war was shot to death by an arrow in the chaos. The aggressive Arabs were forced to cancel the attack, and Charles became a "hero" protecting France.

France was the first country to popularize Christianity. After four centuries of missionary work, theocracy has become very appealing.

The pope had no right to crown the emperor until Charlemagne, the son of Pepin the dwarf, proclaimed himself emperor.

Three generations of grandparents, Charlie, Pepin and Charlemagne, succeeded in usurping the throne of the Merovingian royal family as powerful ministers, but left behind a big trouble-"the divine right of kings", and the church based on "Isidore the False". The Decrees declare that the power of the pope is higher than that of the emperor, and opposes the secular kingship to control the church. This is why European emperors had to be crowned by the pope in the past.

People have lost their minds in their religious fanaticism. The common people listen to the priests more than the lords. The Eastern Roman Empire is smashing icons. The secular power is higher than the divine power. Beware of Western Romans stabbing in the back.

In fact, the Romans in the West really did. During the Crusades, those countrymen sacked Constantinople, and countless Greek documents were transported to Venice, and then the Venetian fleet transported the spoils to Western Europe.

In the 16th century, the Eastern Roman Empire was gone, and the alliance between the Austrian Habsburgs and Spain was the strongest force in Europe at that time.

The powerful Ottoman has always maintained an advantage. Under the leadership of Suleiman, Ottoman captured most of Hungary.

After the wedding of Iberia, Spain, which combined the kingdoms of Aragon and Castile-Leon, became the strongest country in Europe in one fell swoop. Due to the marriage with the Austrian Habsburg family, the Spanish throne also became the territory of the Habsburg family. At the peak moment, King Charles V of Spain was even elected as the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire.

France was very geopolitically dangerous because of the Spanish-Habsburg alliance. The lowlands of the Netherlands to the north, the Rhine and the Alps to the east are the territories of the Holy Roman Empire, and the Pyrenees to the south are the territories of Spain. It can be said that France was surrounded by the Habsburg League.

The Ottoman army began to besiege Vienna on July 14, 1683, with an army of about 138,000 people. The decisive battle took place on September 12, when 70,000 reinforcements from the Holy Alliance arrived.

Another part of the French of the Allied Forces of Sacrifice turned their backs in this war. The French Sun King Louis XIV supported 6,000 soldiers for the Holy Roman Empire. Kingdom battle.

The Grand Duke of Russia became an Orthodox Christian because he married the princess of Constantinople. At this time, most of the Tatar nomadic forces had been resolved, and the colonization of Siberia was also fruitful. More importantly, in the Polish-Russian War of 1654-1667, Russia defeated Poland for the first time and ate a large area of ​​Ukraine and Belarus, becoming a new force that cannot be underestimated in Europe.

In 1679 Vienna suffered the worst outbreak of the Black Death, killing two-thirds of the population.

The Ottoman Empire secretly instigated an anti-Habsburg and Protestant rebellion in Hungary. Finally, in 1683, Ottoman decided to do it himself and sent the declaration of war to the court in Vienna. The Great Turkic War broke out.

In 1683, the most ambitious emperor in Russian history, Peter Romanov, came to the throne. During the Ottoman siege of Vienna, the Ottoman army had 130 field guns and 19 medium-caliber guns. The defenders of the Holy Roman Empire had 370 artillery pieces, so the number of Ottoman artillery pieces was insufficient.

There is a great conflict between Russia and Ottoman's national interests in the Black Sea. Russia has always been eager to obtain the mouth of the Black Sea, but Ottoman controls the tribes of the Crimean Tatars. What's more unfortunate is that in the 20-year Russian-Ottoman contract signed in 1682, after Peter the Great learned that Ottoman declared war on the Holy Roman Empire, he immediately tore up the armistice treaty, joined the Holy Alliance, and joined hands with his old enemy Poland. It was Russia's first active involvement in a European alliance.

But for Osman, it is a bad news, which means that Osman will be under pressure from three parties, Russia in the east, the Holy Alliance in the west, and his own internal problems.

From 1669 to 1676, although it once defeated Poland and Russia and captured Ukraine, after 1681, it was defeated by Russia, Venice and Austria successively. The successive defeats caused dissatisfaction among the Ottoman soldiers, and the Sultan longed for a victory.

When it comes to the history of Poland, many people will regard the Polish cavalry who rushed to the German tanks in World War II as a typical symbol of a weak country, and use it as a talking point for this country that has been divided up many times. As everyone knows, the same Polish cavalry once saved the Western Christian world at a critical moment in Europe, and made world-renowned feats. The Polish hussars are the symbol of the pinnacle of Polish military power.

The armor of the Polish cavalry has a set of wings on the back. The original use of this set of wings was to deal with the Ottoman Turks. In the Turkish army, there is a method of throwing a lasso to kill the enemy cavalry, so the Polish hussars are on the back. Insert two barriers to prevent being pulled off the horse by the lasso. They look like angel wings, which fit the setting of the Holy Alliance very well.

On September 12, when the Austrian and Saxon troops in the city went out for the final decisive battle with the Ottoman army, and when the elite cavalry and musket guards of the Ottoman army were all concentrated in besieging the Germans, the Polish hussars fought against King Sobieski's army. Under the leadership, they rushed out from the hillside suddenly, and the swift and fierce blow of the hussars broke through multiple fronts of the Ottomans, and finally completely collapsed the Ottomans who could not take care of both ends. After this battle, the Polish King Sobieski was hailed as a hero who besieged Christian civilization and went down in history forever.

That scene is said to be like a fucking angel descending. When the cavalry charged, their wings fluttered with the wind. The visual effect was very shocking. The hussars were not as bulky as the French heavy cavalry, nor as lightly armed as the Tsarist Russian Cossack or Tatar cavalry. , He is a kind of cavalry unit with both offensive and defensive capabilities. It is not only strong in armor but also fast and light.

The Battle of Vienna marked a turning point in a 300-year struggle between the kingdoms of Central Europe and the Ottoman Empire.

In the 16 years after the battle, the Habsburg dynasty of Austria gradually recaptured southern Hungary and Transylvania from the Ottoman Empire, and eliminated the large Ottoman army. The two countries signed a peace treaty in 1699, ending the expansion of the Ottoman Empire to Europe.

Things such as myths and beliefs are blurred by conflicts of interest in state-to-state diplomacy, but they are no less powerful than a nuclear bomb in the extreme environment of the battlefield.

Chapter 6 of Revelation, the last part of the New Testament of the Bible, records the four horsemen of the apocalypse. The first knight is a white horse, which traditionally represents the conqueror, the son of the devil. The second knight is a red horse, which traditionally represents the king. Lord, the broadsword symbolizes war and destruction. The third knight is the black horse, which represents famine and unfair trade, which is the symbolic meaning of the balance. The fourth rider is the green horse, which represents pure death and endless suffering.

The Austrians saw so many "Apocalyptic Knights" helping in the Battle of Vienna, their morale was greatly boosted, and the shadow of the Black Death disappeared all of a sudden.

Merlin's beard seemed to be really helped by God.

The original Bible uses a Greek root word for "green", which represents the color of a living being dying or just dying, but the English "green" cannot express this meaning, so "pale" is used, which does not Express that state exactly.

Pomona looked at the green plants outside the window in the observation car, recalling that period of history in her mind. No one played music in the second-class car, only the whistle of the steam train could be heard.

It sounded like the sound of an angel blowing a horn, and it also sounded like a charging knight blowing a horn. The sound was by no means as beautiful as the symphony sounding in the Golden Hall of Vienna. It was monotonous and boring, but it ignited blood more than any battle song.

Many flowers have their own flower language, and the flower language of luanwei flower is good luck.

"Good luck, Harry Potter." Pomona said softly, hoping that he could escape the Avada Kedavra curse for the second time as he did in the last battle at Hogwarts, turning things around and turning defeat into victory.

"Why did you say that name?" The revived Potions professor said disgustedly, he was still holding the newspaper with the photo of Harry Potter. At this time, Harry was no longer dressed as a student. The director was wearing a black and white formal suit, and the strong light from the flashlight shone on his already angular face, as well as the not-so-clear lightning scar on his forehead.

"I think he needs this," she sighed. "I don't think he'll want to drink Felicia."

"beep"

The whistle sounded again, and now it didn't sound like a horn. It was originally the same model as the Hogwarts Express, so the whistle sound should be the same, but she just heard it wrong.

MMP, why do I write so many wars, romance novels, dating! I'm going to write a date!
