Throughout history, war has always been cruel and merciless. Indeed, throughout history, wars have been resolved peacefully, except by virtue of a three-inch tongue. Whenever there is a war, the death toll is by no means in the minority. Taking the Anshi Rebellion as an example, in this war that lasted for 7 years, the two sides invested as many as 1 million soldiers, of which more than 300,000 were killed in battle, and the casualties of the people had to be calculated according to tens of millions. And even if it is a small battle, the dead are not in the minority. In this battle in Europe, however, the small country sent only 80 men to fight, but not a single one died. Even when returning to China to count the number of people, the army even produced one more person out of thin air, which was jaw-dropping!
Liechtenstein is a landlocked pocket country in central Europe. Located between Switzerland and Austria, it has a total area of 160.5 square kilometers, and until 2018, there were only 37,000 people in the country. In the 1860s, the country's population was even worse, less than 10,000.
In 1866, Prussia and Austria disputed and decided to settle the problem by war. Faced with such a "huge" scale of the war, Liechtenstein decided to remain neutral and not to help each other. However, Prussia, because of its close connection to Austrian territory, sent emissaries to threaten Liechtenstein with troops. Seeing that its country was bound to be drawn into war, Liechtenstein, after a nationwide discussion, chose Austria, which had the highest support at the time. To this end, they also sent an army of 80 people to Austria for the Austrian side to dispatch.
In the face of reinforcements, O'o thanked him. They immediately sent all of these soldiers to the Tyrolean region to prevent rapid reinforcements from prussian allies.
This was the only way for the Italian army to reach Prussia, and soon an Italian army reached the Tyrolean region. Faced with an army far superior in number and more elite weapons, the 80 Liechtenstein soldiers hiding in the trenches were undoubtedly a little afraid. But compared with these 80 people, the Italian army was more panicked. They believed that this was an ambush arranged in advance by Austria and could not be easily moved. In this way, both sides hid in the trenches, and neither of them would do anything first, and waited until the end of the war to show their heads.
In the end, 80 people were released and returned to China because they did not resist. However, when returning to China to count the number of people, the chief wondered, obviously 80 people were sent, how did they come back to 81? After careful investigation, it turned out that the extra person in the army was a Prussian deserter. However, Liechtenstein, who was short of people, did not send him, but left him behind, and eventually became a citizen of Dunfang!
