Chapter 411

Rebellion was not child's play, and revolution was not a meal. It was easy to get on the boat, but difficult to get off. Even though Ryan knew that he had fallen into a trap, he had no other choice. He could only go all the way.

They did not have a choice, but it did not mean that others did not have a choice. The well-informed nobles were now aware of the danger.

There was no doubt that this was a chess game against them, and they had jumped into it. Now that the rebels lacked weapons and ammunition, and they did not have the support of the people, there was no chance of success.

They didn't even have the power to negotiate with the Vienna government with their own power.

Most of the nobles in the Czech region were from the German Region, and they were inextricably linked to the nobles in Vienna. However, this connection was not enough to keep them safe in the rebellion.

In a luxurious residence in the noble district of Prague, seven well-dressed men gathered together. If anyone knew them, they would immediately realize that they were all big shots in the Czech region.

But now, these big shots all looked flustered, and they did not have their usual elegant demeanor. If word of this got out, it would probably shock the whole of Prague.

What was it that could make so many big shots tremble with fear?

"Count Karloch, what should we do now? I'm afraid that there is a traitor among us. Everything we have done has been exposed to the Government of Vienna! "

"Count Scott, don't worry. We did not personally participate in this rebellion. At most, only some of our collateral members participated, so there is room for maneuver.

Now, as long as we help Prince Windisgratz suppress the rebellion, we can be cleared of suspicion in this rebellion. The Government of Vienna will not kill us because of this! "Count Karloch said calmly.

They did not feel any pressure to betray their teammates. It was nothing more than giving up a few collateral members. The problem was that the Government of Vienna would not settle the score later.

Under normal circumstances, Europe did not kill nobles, but if an accident happened on the battlefield, then no one could say anything.

Perhaps only God knew what Prince Windisgratz was planning. He had set up such a big trap, so how could he not catch a few big fish?

Count Karloch's words obviously did not make everyone feel at ease. If it were any other crime, it would be fine. Everyone had connections, and there would be people who would speak up for them.

But this time was different. Although they did not really want independence, and only wanted to use this opportunity to fight for more power, in the eyes of the Government of Vienna, this was also a rebellion.

Since ancient times, the ruling class hated rebellions the most. Even if they did not immediately investigate who was responsible, they would still settle the score later.

"Count Karloch, I am not worried about personal safety. As long as we do not rebel directly, the Government of Vienna will not take our heads. But what price do we have to pay?

Everyone here has large families. Many industries in the Prague area. On the surface, many industries belong to capitalists, but in Prague., in.

These things can't be exposed to the public, so the Vienna government directly confiscated them, and we can't object. "They" and, and, and and, and they will to. "'s s.'s s.

Don't tell me that everyone has no contact with the rebel army. No matter how clean it is, it's useless at this time.

"As long as Prince Windisgratz thinks that we participated in the rebellion, then no one will have an easy time. We all know what happens to the nobles involved in the rebellion in Vienna.

Many of these families were implicated because their descendants or retainers participated in the rebellion, and in the end, they were stripped of their titles and properties! "

Count Scott's voice trembled as he spoke. Obviously, he was worried that what happened in Vienna would happen to him.

The European nobles were one, but their interests were not the same. They wanted more autonomy in the Czech Republic, so that they could reap benefits.

But the Austrian nobles wanted to centralize power. They wanted to use the influence of the central government to penetrate into the country. The interests of the two sides had already clashed.

This was what Scott was most worried about. Would the Austrian nobles, who dominated the Government of Vienna, easily let go of the opportunity to suppress them?

At this time, the old butler's voice sounded. "Count Karloch, someone outside claims to be a secret envoy of Prince Windisgratz. He wants to see you!"

Everyone's expression changed, but they quickly reacted. They had already been exposed, so it was not surprising that Prince Windisgratz's men came to their door.

"Let him in. Linda, take everyone to the next room to rest for a while!" Count Karloch said after some thought.

No one had any objections. The maid took everyone to the next room, where they could hear the conversation. Everyone also wanted to figure out Prince Windisgratz's purpose.

Seeing the man, Karloch asked in surprise, "Kundera, how come it's you?"

"Why can't it be me? My dear brother, don't forget that I have always served in the Austrian army. This time, I happened to be transferred to Prince Windisgratz's army, so I took the initiative to stop this errand!" Kundera laughed.

No one could understand how messy the relationship between the European nobles was. Kundera and Karloch were cousins, but Karloch's branch had inherited the family title, so Kundera, as a child of the side branch, had to fight on his own.

Since they were family, things would be easier. Karloch had already felt the kindness of Prince Windisgratz.

"Kundera, I'm relieved to see you at this time!" Karloch said with relief.

"No, my brother, it's too early to be relieved. I've brought the conditions of Prince Windisgratz, or rather, the Government of Vienna.

If you agree, then nothing happened this time. If not, I don't need to say anything.

If you don't want the family to decline, you'd better think about it carefully! "Kundera said seriously.

Karloch smiled slightly. There was always a price to pay for doing something wrong. If the Government of Vienna did not put forward conditions, he would be worried instead.

"Say it. As long as it can save the family, I can accept any conditions!"

Kundera looked at the traces left on the ground and said, "Since everyone is here, let's invite them together. Anyway, we can't hide forever.

Sooner or later, everyone will have to face these problems. The conditions I brought were set by the cabinet. There is no room for negotiation. Either accept or reject! "

Count Karloch looked a little embarrassed, but he quickly recovered and said calmly, "Well, you saw through it. Everyone, come out!"

Seeing everyone come out, they greeted each other. Kundera said, "The Government of Vienna's conditions are …"
