A New War
Winter may be coming ,but no one can see the end of this brutal war.Actually,it seems that it is only going to grow as more countries enter the war.South Germans are rallying to the Bavarian banner.The rebellion is still ongoing, and the rebels even managed to stop the Prussian advance at Hesselberg on the 23rd of September ,where a small South German force had fortified itself.Most of the Bavarian army decided to side with the Kingdom and protect the South German ideals.The few generals that stood by the Empire fleed to the northern parts of Germany.The Bavarian government didn't wait to call them traitors and Prussian puppets.The main Bavarian forces,led by Prince Alfons,quickly moved north,hoping to slow the Prussians down until help comes from somewhere.However,it looks like no one wants to help this failed cause.In Munich,anarchy reigns as some people think that this rebellion was a mistake and small street fight are occuring in the city in the last few days and no one does anything,because all Bavarians are divided on this issue.This effectively paralyzes the government,which knows that the Prussians will soon break through thir defenses,if no on one comes to help
The Bohemians and the Hungarians are starting two offensive,named by the outside world as the,,20 day offensive",because their plan is to reach Vienna in 20 days.The young and disorganized Bohemian army lost a battle to the experienced Austrian army near Krumau.The Hungarian front turned into a stalemate,after both armies tried to secure higher points,even though the Hungarian army scored a few victories in the south.Archduke Joseph(who was promoted to Feldmarschall)said that something new will have to be developed in order to break the stalemate on the front.The Austrian General Staff reported that work has been started on new and more modern rifles and artillery.The people rally behind the Kaiser like never before.The war support is incredibly high and new recruits come to the army every day.
The French government stated that a peaceful solution should be found.However, everyone knows that the French will not just stay and watch without doing anything.The French Prime minister,René Viviani,is known for protecting the socialists and the trade union workers.
On the next day,the Bulgarian government announces these shocking news to the public-the Tzar was killed by people who hated him for creating the first National Catastrophe.His son,Boris,acceded to the throne of an already unstable country,and to make evrything worse,the Prime minister resigned.
