The town of Myers at the junction of the Tamina Gorge and the Rhine Valley in Switzerland is the intersection of the Graubünden region and the three principalities of the Principality of Liechtenstein and St. Gallen, which belongs to the St. Gallen region.
At this time, the St. Gallen region has not yet established the state of St. Gallen, and its political forces are relatively complicated. Some regions have joined the Swiss Alliance, while others remain neutral. St. Gallen counts strictly as a diocese. However, forces such as Appenzell and Togenburg in the jurisdiction were not under the control of the church. These forces are inclined to the Swiss Union, but have not stated their position. After all, the Swiss haven't completely defeated the emperor right now, and the three forces decided to wait and see.
But in the Swiss attack on Graubünden, the forces of St. Gallen allowed the Swiss army to pass. Because from the north into Graubünden, only the Tamina Gorge from the southeast of the St. Gallen region enters the Rhine Gorge. Then, follow the Rhine Canyon up to the Graubünden region.
After learning that the Swiss army was about to kill, the emperor sent troops to cross the fast-flowing upper Rhine river (in this area, the eastern canyon of the Rhine belongs to Graubünden, and the narrow Hexi area belongs to St. Gallen), Occupied Myers, and built strong fortifications to withstand Swiss attacks.
Because the valley was narrow, the Swiss could not play, so they had to mobilize artillery to bombard the line of defense and try to break through the Tamina Canyon. At the same time, the Swiss would send people to climb the city wall ordered by Maximilian I in the shelling space, trying to forcibly seize Myers and open the road.
The Swiss did not have artillery themselves, but King Louis XII supported the Swiss to win Graubünden. Because, Louis XII hoped that the Swiss would seize Graubinden and cut off the way that Maximilian I interfered in Italy-the Mistelle valley. So the French sent a lot of artillery for free, and they also sent artillery to help the Swiss attack. Coupled with the Swiss's fearless attack, the Myers line was in distress several times.
But Maximilian I knew the importance here and sent a lot of elite guards. If the Orly soldiers were on the plains, they might not beat the Swiss. However, relying on their solid defense, they can barely withstand the Swiss offensive. However, under the fire of the French, they were also uncomfortable and the damage was relatively large.
底 At the end of November, Flenzberg finally took the reinforcements and entered the Emperor's area from the Liechtenstein direction along the Rhine Valley.
The Principality of Liechtenstein and the Swabian League are neighbors and have close relations. Therefore, Frentzberg's reinforcements passed smoothly, including 20 front-mounted bronze three-pound guns brought by Frentzberg. Fortunately, a three-pound gun that is easy to maneuver. If heavier artillery can't pass the rugged mountain road, it can't reach Myers in the plateau valley.
After arriving in Myers, Frentzberg went to Chur first, and met Maximilian I, who was here, to express his loyalty. The emperor was glad that Marin could send reinforcements. Although I feel that there are few people, taking into consideration the situation of Marin, I can express my understanding.
After encouraging Frenzberger, Maximilian I sent Flenzberger to Myers again, and he was responsible for blocking the Swiss offense. Of course, the emperor also needed to provide enough gunpowder and lead blocks, as well as artillery shells, for the Flenzberg army. After all, Frenzberg brought 800 musketeers and 20 three-pound cannons, and the gunpowder was in great demand.
However, it is very worthwhile, although it consumes a lot of gunpowder. After Flenzberger took his men to the Myers line, the power of the Musketeer immediately became apparent ...
Although the Swiss were not afraid of death, many pioneer soldiers also wore breastplates and helmets, but they encountered muskets. Those brave Swiss mercenaries who climbed the high walls had to be bombarded by the gunners down the walls ...
You know, Frentzberg brought 800 musketeers and fired in three stages. Each round also had 266 musketeers shooting at the same time. The Myers defense was not wide. The 266 muskets opened fire, and the Swiss mercenary's offensive was immediately hit back.
The reluctant Swiss stopped the storm and pulled out 20 rear-mounted bronze cannons presented by the French and began to blast the city walls. But Franzberg also brought artillery. So, Fronzberger also pulled the three-pound bronze gun mounted on the wall, and began to fight with French guns ...
I should know that the rear-loaded guns (that is, Fran machine guns) of this era are not as powerful as the front-loaded guns because of their poor air tightness. Therefore, in the artillery battle, the artillery of Franz Berger prevailed, and the Swiss had to retreat.
After a few days of fierce fighting, the Swiss suffered huge losses and had to stop the storm. Of course, Maximilian I also spent a lot of gunpowder, which made him very distressed. You know, gunpowder is very expensive these days. Therefore, while Maximilian I enjoyed victory, he also felt very distressed about the consumption of gunpowder. But anyway, victory is the most important. Compared with the control of the huge Graubünden area, the large investment in gunpowder is negligible.
Under the attack of the soldiers and guns under Franz Berger, it was very difficult to attack Meiers. In desperation, the Swiss had to find another way. After all, Graubünden and the West Gate can attack. As a result, only a part of the Swiss army on the North Road was left, and the rest were pulled to the west, intending to open Graubünden's defense from the west. As long as they enter the Graubünden region, the Swiss have the confidence to defeat the Austrian army and complete the occupation and control of the Graubünden region of more than 7,000 square kilometers.
Even after controlling the Graubünden region, the Swiss can directly threaten western Austria and can also cut Austria's route south to Italy.
I can say that whoever controls Graubünden has the initiative. When Maximilian I took control of Graubünden, he had the ability to intervene in Italy, and at the same time he could use the steep terrain to block the Swiss.
瑞士 The Swiss also have their own strategic goals, not to occupy Graubünden, but because they control Graubünden, they can threaten the security of Austria. Threatening the security of Austria would allow Maximilian I to yield and agree with the autonomy of the Swiss.
最大 The biggest wish of the Swiss ~ www.novelhall.com ~ is to hope that the Habsburgs will give up the 觊觎 of the Swiss territory and allow Switzerland a high degree of autonomy. But this is very difficult, because most of Switzerland was originally the territory of the Habsburgs, but was forcibly separated from the Habsburgs during the Luxembourg Dynasty. Therefore, the Habsburgs have been grieving, hoping to regain these territories.
You know, the canton of Aargau, Switzerland, but the birthplace of the Habsburgs. In the face of their ancestral homes, the Habsburgs certainly refused to give up.
So, the Swiss wanted to force the Habsburgs to give up their puppets to Switzerland and obtain a high degree of autonomy by force (in fact, it is no different from independence).
In the original history, Maximilian I was persuaded by the Swiss after he entered the Swabian War and was forced to agree to Swiss autonomy.
But because of Marin's intervention, in this time and space, Maximilian I was busy occupying Graubünden, and did not rush into the war with Jinshiwaben. Naturally, he was not persuaded by the Swiss and signed the agreement to the Swiss autonomy.
Therefore, it is natural that the Swiss did not achieve their political goals. Originally, Maximilian I did not fight against Jinshiwaben, and the Swiss were not proactive. However, after Maximilian I could not help but come in, the Swiss suddenly aimed at the emperor in order to force the emperor to agree to the autonomy of the Swiss and to ask the Habsburg family to give up the puppet of Swiss land.
Therefore, the Swiss are reluctant to give up until this goal is achieved. Although Mels did not win in the north of the Graubünden area, the Swiss quickly mobilized the main force to attack the customs on the west of Graubünden. In short, the Swiss would not give up if they did not advance to Graubünden, forcing the emperor to agree with their political demands ...
