In the Governor's Office of Silesia, Desai was listening to the report of the military commander. When Colonel Poch talked about Blücher talking nonsense and being crazy in the British carriage, he couldn't help laughing, naturally he was not blinded by the Prussian tricks.

"Haha, my colonel, you're fooled. That old guy Blüchel is just pretending to be crazy and stupid!"

Who is Blüchel?

The Prussian cavalry general, the future field marshal!

He has a reckless temperament, but is good at accepting advice; he has a eccentric personality; but he acts bravely. How could an old soldier who has been struggling among the dead on the battlefield for more than 50 years and has seen life and death care about the lives of 55 unknown people?

At the beginning, Desai did have the idea of ​​executing Blüchelle immediately to reduce the trouble of future wars, but this desire is not very strong and is optional.

Time travelers despise the "command art" of this "attack marshal". They have been defeated repeatedly, fought repeatedly, and fought recklessly and blindly rushing and killing hard, but they rely on the lives of soldiers to fill the big hole of death on the battlefield.

If the wise Gnezenau had not been to the wise supporters and, after Blüchelle was seriously injured, he personally led his army to rescue Wellington, who was about to be defeated, wouldn't have had the wonderful scene of the Battle of Waterloo.

As long as Desai finds another opportunity to annex East Prussia, reduce the land area and population of Prussia by half or even more in 1807. He wants to see how many Prussian soldiers there will be for Blücher to consume.

Therefore, when the British envoy arrived and the requests of the two subordinates, Desai also gave up the idea of ​​executing the Prussian general and secretly instructed Colonel Poch's military police to suffer for Blüchel, which would be best to annoy the Prussians, let Gnezenau and others raise troops to invade Silesia, and continue the unfinished war.

Unfortunately, Sharnhorst and Gnezenau were not fooled.

This disappointed Desai because his Duchy of Warsaw had no excuse to continue to expand his "unilateral invasion" of Prussia.

Prince Eugen sent a telegram (robot arm telegram) from the Governor General Danze's office, telling him and his Danze's army could no longer cooperate with the war of Desai. That was a news from Paris that Napoleon seemed to have committed an old habit of being ruthless and seemed to have forgiven King William III of Prussia. The alliance between the two countries of France is expected to be signed in the Duille Palace in early November.

This was 3 months ahead of the original historical events, which of course belonged to the time traveler. If Desai had not been resolute and had no choice but to suppress the Prussian Kingdom's living space in Central Europe, and swallowed the Danze Corridor and Silesia, the stubborn Prussians would not have surrendered so early, seeking the protection of French allies and escaping Desai's invasion.

Desai was unhappy to spit out the territory that had already been eaten, and no one would force the winner to give in;

However, Desai wanted to continue scraping a large piece of meat from Prussia, the "Central European fat pig". Napoleon, as an ally, would definitely interfere, and perhaps also add dissatisfied Austrians, as well as poor-minded Russians and Swedes.

Desai will never send troops recklessly in a situation of unfavorable diplomacy, and can only stop, calmly develop, and wait for the opportunity.

However, there is also good news. After being tortured by the plague and food shortage for more than a month, the arrogant Prince of Austria finally surrendered.

In exchange for the medical treatment and food aid of Desai, Prince Schwarzenberg, who was desperate, had to order the full Austrian army in early November to withdraw from the town of Riali between the two tributaries of the Oder River, between the Nice River and the Bubu River, to the starting point, the southern foot of the Sudet Mountains, and voluntarily give up control of the middle reaches of the Oder River.

Therefore, two months after Desai took the swearing battle in the southern suburbs of Warsaw, he occupied the entire Prussian Silesia, with 36,000 square kilometers of land and 1.16 million people. Another 320,000 people crossed the Oder River and migrated westward into Prussia.

On November 5, when news of the official conclusion of the alliance between Fanpai and France reached Wroclaw, Grand Duke Desai also officially announced that the war in Silesia had all ended and the entire Silesia was re-emerged into the territory of the Duchy of Warsaw.

Desai appointed General Malusevsky as the governor of Silesia, with his subordinate Second Army stationed in the area. Colonel Pochi of the Ministry of Military Police serves as the deputy governor. The two will jointly handle all military and political affairs in Silesia and report directly to the Grand Duke of Warsaw.

Before this, Desai had ordered the recruitment of 12,000 infantry in Silesia to replenish General Mokronovsky's first army as soon as possible; then 3,000 veterans were assigned from the First Army and transferred to the Second Army commanded by Governor Malusevsky to increase the strength of the local garrison in Silesia.

After Malushevsky successfully digested 5,000 Rhodes volunteers, the Second Army had expanded to 14,000; in addition, Desai also left Colonel Poch and his 2,000 military police forces to fully cooperate.

When everything was ready, on November 12, Grand Duke Desai led his guard division to leave Silesia and turned eastward toward Poland and Krakow, claiming to inspect the defense of southern Poland. Three weeks ago, General Mokronovsky's first army had arrived in Krakow and met with Spelansky, who had been working here in the early stage.

...

In the 19th century, Little Poland was not just one province, but like the Great Poland in the north, it belonged to an ancient geographical noun. Its regional scope covers the entire southern Poland in the 21st century, Little Poland and the Carpathian Foothills (Galicia).

Its capital is located in Krakow, with its full name "Krakow Royal Capital". It was built in the 11th century AD and is one of the oldest cities in Central Europe. It is located on both sides of the upper reaches of the Vistula River, about 250 kilometers away from the Polish capital of Warsaw, with a population of less than 90,000.

In 1320, after King Vladislav reunified Poland, he established his capital in Krakow. He flourished rapidly in the next three hundred years and became one of the famous cultural centers in Europe at that time. In the 18th century, the Polish king ordered the capital to be moved to Warsaw in the north, so this city that had been intoxicated for nearly 700 years was forgotten.

In the eyes of time travelers, the historical comparison between Krakow and Warsaw is like the relationship between Chang'an and Beijing.

However, what impressed Krakow most was not the historical glory of the Polish capital for the past 400 years, but the infamous Osve concentration camp opened by later German Nazis near it.

What made the time travelers laugh and cry was that this small place called Auschwitz was actually classified as an exclusive territory of the Grand Duke of Desay by the Warsaw Parliament in October 1811, aiming to reward the monarch for his contribution to regaining the lost land in Poland, Silesia.

The moment he received the parliamentary resolution, Desai secretly swore that if he saw the gas chamber and death workshop in his territory, Auschwitz, he would definitely send all the opposition members of the Warsaw Parliament to this concentration camp.

Perhaps it was precisely because of this kind of strange idea that before arriving in Krakow, Desai, accompanied by a large number of guards, drove to the town of Auschwitz, 40 kilometers southwest of the capital, and made a special trip to inspect his exclusive territory.

In the early winter envoy, the first snowfall in Warsaw in the north was early, and the middle and lower reaches of the Vivas River entered a cold winter. However, in Auschwitz in the south, it was still in the clear and crisp autumn, and the scenery was beautiful everywhere.

Desai was riding in a four-wheeled convertible carriage and was moving fast and steadily on the quiet road. He looked at the lush forests on both sides, the clear streams flowing, and the manor fields where farmers worked hard, which made people feel refreshed.

However, when inspecting manors in various places, the facts encountered made the great Duke of Warsaw, who was in a good mood, become very angry.

...

In Poland's historical geography, it can be simply divided into central Poland with the Greater Poland region and the capital Warsaw as the core; in the Little Poland region, southern Poland centered on the old capital Krakow, and Pomerania in the Baltic Sea.

Since the political power of the Warsaw Parliament mainly comes from central Poland, the Grand Duke of Desai, who was afraid of the weapons, seemed extremely cautious in choosing the issue of releasing serfs. Just after winning the judicial power of the serfs under the nobles in Warsaw and Greater Poland, Desai announced that it would stop and no longer force the nobles' parliament, so as not to eventually break the blame and fight.

So, instead of looking for the second best, Desai placed the reform base for releasing serfs in southern Poland. Because it was long dominated by Russians or Austrians. In 1809, when Napoleon launched the Second Danube War against Vienna, a national war was also launched in southern Poland, Krakow and other places occupied by the Austrians.

During this period, countless town manors were destroyed, all kinds of livestock and most of the means of production were turned into ashes, and a large number of southern nobles fled to the north. More than a year later, many serf owners who were still scared were unable to return to their southern homes.

When Desai ascended the throne of Warsaw Grand Duke, he summoned representatives of the southern nobles at the Wajinki Palace and expressed his willingness to contact the Mediterranean Bank to assist the southern lords in terms of funds and technology, and restore and develop the local economy.

In addition, Desai also made a generous commitment to the southern representatives, and will jointly establish a series of joint military supplies processing plants in central cities such as Krakow, Katowitz and Rzesov, and make canned military supplies in central cities such as Krakow, Katowitz and Rzesov, and supply them to all over Europe.

But there is a major premise, that is, the southern nobles and serf owners from all over the country must strictly follow the schedule set by the Grand Duke of Desay, and within one year, gradually release their serfs, and dissolve their personal dependence, so that they can become free people in law and personality.

With the coercion and inducement of the Grand Duke of Desai, these southern nobles and serf owners who were exiled to Warsaw, after several days and nights of fierce debate, and repeatedly weighed the pros and cons, they collectively accepted the political transaction of using economic aid to exchange for serf freedom. In fact, they were already tired of the discriminatory look of the Warsaw nobles towards themselves, and it became a natural thing to rely on the powerful monarch.

In late August, just two weeks before Desai led his troops to Silesia, Russian Spilansky was appointed as the southern inspection commissioner by Desai, and went to Krakow and other places to supervise the release of serfs, actively cooperated with the Mediterranean Bank to restore the local economy.
