Chapter 935: False Victory

Many factories are hidden in the mountains, with tall chimneys steaming black smoke and the roar of machinery.

The black and gold avenues lead to the sky, and the high-rise buildings on both sides are also majestic.

At this time, reinforced concrete structures were far from popular. The world's first reinforced concrete building in history was completed in New York, USA in 1872.

The popularization of reinforced concrete structures was not until humans entered the 20th century.

However, reinforced concrete structures are not complicated. After Franz explained it to the top group of architectural engineers and material experts in the Austrian Empire at that time, they understood it.

However, they did not understand the scientific theory very well, but believed in the words of the saints boasted by Archbishop Rauscher.

Hearing is false, seeing is true, and Franz had no choice but to let those engineers and experts make a simple model by themselves.

It was a scaled-down St. Stephen's Cathedral, and then began to create a series of man-made disasters to test the strength of the building.

These include, but are not limited to, knife hacking, axe smashing, gun beating, bombardment, flooding, fire, and meteorite falling.

After many struggles, they finally came to a conclusion that reinforced concrete structures have excellent impact resistance, explosion resistance, fire resistance, and moldability, and the building structure is stable and has excellent pressure resistance.

However, they did not mention the main advantage of modern reinforced concrete structures: cheapness!

In fact, steel was expensive at that time, and cement was cheap, but except for the British Portland cement, it was not very useful.

So those monarchs were shocked by reinforced concrete buildings. Half of them were because they had never seen such tall buildings in a row, and half of them were because they learned through explanations that the materials used actually included steel and cement, and they were shocked by Franz's handwriting.

Franz thought his experiment was very successful, but the reality was that those engineers and material experts did not care about the principle at all. They just needed to know that this thing was easy to use.

On the contrary, some physicists and chemists began to study the scientific principles behind it, and invented a simple expansion bolt by accident a few decades later.

At this time, let alone other countries did not master the technology of reinforced concrete, even if they did, the price of steel bars and Portland cement was unaffordable for them.

However, Austria was different. Due to technological progress, the prices of the two materials were always maintained within an acceptable range for the internal.

The reason why Franz built so many reinforced concrete buildings in Tyrol was actually to be prepared for any eventuality.

In case things were really out of control, or if that eventuality occurred, the jungle of reinforced concrete could still serve as the last line of defense. [ ]

Exposing Tyrol's military facilities was also a helpless move. After all, Franz was well aware of the huge waves in 1848. If he could not convince those monarchs that Franz really had the Dinghaishenzhen in his hand, it would be difficult to convince them.

Although it was rumored that the Austrian Empire was trapped internally and externally, with powerful enemies outside and tigers and wolves inside, it looked like a building was about to collapse.

However, judging from the Italian battlefield alone, Franz was able to quell the rebellion in such a short time and solve the Italian coalition forces. The so-called tigers and wolves and powerful enemies were nothing more than that.

Although the British media was still advocating the Bohemian Revolution at this time, it was said that the so-called "Bohemian Revolution" was confined to Prague, and the rebellion lasted only 38 hours, not even two days.

As for the Hungarians who were making a lot of noise before, they seemed to have been silent for a long time.

This is not that the Hungarians have learned their lesson. On the contrary, they have always wanted to make a big news. After all, the more they make a fuss, the more international support and compromise factions in Austria will have.

When the news that Bautjany broke through Pressburg was sent back to Budapest, the whole city and even the whole of Hungary were boiling.

Kossuth called it the "May Miracle", and Petofi also created a series of poetry collections for it.

The nobles and capitalists have already considered how to divide Austria, and some Hungarian extreme nationalists have begun to spread the theory of racial selection.

That is, only those with Hungarian blood are worthy of living, and foreign nationalities without Hungarian blood can only be second-class citizens, but they must be completely Hungarianized and accept the transformation of the great Hungary.

More people joined the army in order to participate in the feast of dividing Austria. The number of people who signed up could be lined up from Pest to Buda.

Kossuth and Petofi climbed the high tower of Buda Castle and looked out over the entire city. A steady stream of Hungarian nationalists, volunteers, ethnic minorities who supported the Hungarians, and a large amount of supplies were constantly gathering here.

"See? The great Hungarian nation has risen again. We are united! And our enemies..."

Kossuth raised his hand and threw countless letters written in German into the air.

"They sent us a letter of surrender!"

"Haha!"

"Haha!"

"Low-class people are like this! No! All Europeans are like this! Look at those Transylvanians, Croats, and Serbs!

Look at their faces! After hearing that we had conquered Pressburg, they rushed to join our cause with all kinds of supplies.

They even abandoned their ancestors and wanted to join the great Hungarian nation. We don't want these garbage! Don't you think so? Mr. Kossuth."

The speaker is Tyutkal, an extreme Hungarian nationalist.

Before the outbreak of the Hungarian Revolution, he sneaked into the student dormitory alone with a scimitar late at night and stabbed four German students to death. He was called "the bravest man in Hungary".

After the outbreak of the Hungarian Revolution, he was released. Because of his ruthless and ruthless behavior, he soon became Kossuth's right-hand man.

Kossuth always appreciated him very much, but this time he shook his head.

"No, Tyutkal, my brother. Our great Hungarian motherland still needs some people to do dirty work.

Do we want our soldiers to dig manure and dig for food in the fields? Noble Hungarians are born to rule, and we should follow our talents.

I believe you are more suitable to be a ruler, not a servant. My brother, in the future Hungary, every Hungarian will have his own suitable position.

This is our future, this is what we strive for. May everyone be like a dragon"

All Hungarians are immersed in the dream of breaking through Vienna, but the good news they have been waiting for did not come.

In fact, Baojiani also wanted to continue to win, but his strength did not allow it. It is true that he received a large number of reinforcements from Hungary, but they were all cavalry and infantry, lacking siege weapons.

Although Baojiani could trick a fortress outside Pressburg open, it was really a fantasy to trick the gates of every fortress open.

Baojiani did launch several strong attacks, but the result was that he was dispersed before he even touched the city wall.
