I don't know exactly, but since no one else has decided to answer, it's similar to declaring martial law in civilian clothes. Ie. freedoms will be curtailed (there is a question of what can be restricted on the freedom front ...) and they will introduce stricter penalties and faster sentencing (especially the death penalty) for some offenses. I think a specific list of what that means is part of that martial law order, I don't know that there are general rules.

Dear colleague jok1955,
according to the student work of Kateřina Nová: Czech soldiers during the First World War in the Austro-Hungarian army, it happened at the beginning of the war with Serbia, I quote: " On August 14, 21st Army Division (see Appendix 10), where they expected a clash with the enemy.The marching formations gradually disintegrated as a result of the fighting of individual groups with Serbian committees. General Giesl decided to withdraw the troops and then concentrate them in the village of Lipolist, based on information from the commander of the Army Division Przyborski. Major General Alois Podhajský was trying to capture and organize a new fight. retreat to Lipolist on August 17, so that the important area of Cerska planina was left to the Serbs voluntarily and at the cost of great lives. The commander of the Balkan forces, General Potiorek, subsequently declared martial law over the entire division, as even Chief of Staff Conrad von Hötzendorf saw the failure of the August offensive as a failure of the 21st Army Division. This martial law was subsequently abolished by Emperor Francis Joseph I. On August 19, Austro-Hungarian troops began to retreat to Drina. The landlords of Pilsen retreated beyond the river Drina a day later and found themselves in the village of Amajlija again.[/I] "
