Chapter 128 Courage

Suppressing the anger in his heart, Qin Tian shook hands with a group of generals of the 8th Army with a smile on his face. These generals are all the chief officers of the troops of the 8th Army. If so, you must get their support.

Of course, there are undoubtedly very few people who are as ignorant as Lieutenant General Prittwitz. Qin Tian is not only the new commander of the 8th Army, but also the Crown Prince of the Empire. Under such dual identities, there are undoubtedly very few people who dare to provoke him. Unless the brain is flooded, otherwise, who would seek their own death?

After meeting with the generals, the group headed to the headquarters of the 8th Army. General Francois and the others had already prepared dinner, and they were just waiting for Qin Tian and the others to arrive at Königsberg.

Although, an important army commander is missing. However, everyone enjoyed themselves at dinner. Qin Tian's approachability made those generals put down all doubts in their hearts. What's more, Qin Tian also announced to everyone that he will provide more resources to the 8th Army in order to make the 8th Army even stronger. The generals of the 8th Army were very satisfied with Qin Tian's guarantee.

"Everyone, the current international situation is becoming more and more tense. I can assure you that war will definitely break out. And, the time will not exceed five years. Therefore, during this period of time, we must be ready to fight .Our enemy will be the Russians, and the Russians have almost no advantage except for a little more troops. It can be said that fighting the Russians will mean great military exploits. I hope that when the future war breaks out , We can beat the shit out of the Russians. As long as you have military exploits, don't you get all kinds of medals? Getting promoted is undoubtedly a matter of course!" Qin Tian said to the crowd.

As the saying goes, a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier. These generals naturally have higher pursuits. They want to go to the next level, get a higher rank, and even become a marshal of the empire. And all of this needs to rely on military exploits.

Although, they know that only the 8th Army against Russia will be under great pressure. But it's also a huge opportunity. The Russian army is poorly equipped and has poor combat effectiveness. Once the war starts, these German generals are confident that they will win more with less. If you can hit the Russian army hard and defeat the Russian army in one fell swoop during the war, it will be a great contribution! As Qin Tian said, it will be very easy for them to get promoted and get various medals. After all, for a soldier, as long as he has military achievements, it is undoubtedly easy to climb up.

Of course, it is undoubtedly very difficult to defeat millions of Russian troops with hundreds of thousands of people. But it is not impossible if Austria-Hungary can share a little for them.

The eyes of the generals looking at Qin Tian became hot. They now feel that there seems to be nothing wrong with Qin Tianlai being the commander of the 8th Army. Following Qin Tian's words, there may be more opportunities in the future.

Generals Paul von Hindenburg and Erich von Ludendorff stayed after dinner, and the rest returned to their units.

"Your Highness, General Prittwitz's behavior this time is a complete provocation to His Highness, and it is a great blow to His Highness's prestige. If His Highness cannot handle this matter properly, I am afraid that His Highness will be killed in the army." Prestige will be greatly reduced." Hindenburg said with some concern.

"If possible, it is best to transfer Plittwitz away from the 8th Army." Ludendorff also suggested.

Qin Tian nodded: "Of course I want to drive that guy out of the 8th Army. However, it's very difficult! After all, he is His Majesty's favorite. At the same time, he has a very good personal relationship with Xiao Maoqi."

Qin Tian was also very displeased with Prittwitz. Although, he was a favorite of William II. But he made his way to the top by winning the Kaiser's goodwill at the dinner table with hilarious sex stories. How much military talent can such a person be expected to have? In the army, it is simply a black sheep. Qin Tian hoped to build the 8th Army into the most powerful army in the German Army, and hoped that in future wars, one could beat ten and hit the Russians hard in one fell swoop. If Prittwitz is not transferred from the 8th Army, it will inevitably have a very adverse impact on his plan. Qin Tian didn't want everything he worked so hard to ruin just like that.

However, Qin Tian also knew that it would be very difficult to transfer from Plitvice. Not to mention whether William II will agree, but Little Moltke will definitely strongly oppose it. Little Mao Qi expressed clear opposition to the Marine Corps and Qin Tian's appointment as the commander of the 8th Army. Now the relationship between Qin Tian and Xiao Maoqi has deteriorated extremely. Although it has not reached the point of incompatibility, it is not far behind.

"Your Highness, this incident may be caused by Little Maoqi. No matter how difficult it is, we have to find a way to transfer Plitvicz away. Otherwise, with the relationship between Your Highness and Little Maoqi , Xiao Moqi will definitely continue to trip His Highness in the future. In this case, it will divert our great energy, and it will not be conducive to His Highness's next control of the 8th Army." Hindenburg reminded.

"Your Highness, you need an opportunity to establish your prestige in the military. This time Prittwitz undoubtedly gave His Highness an excellent opportunity. Your Highness should not give up this good opportunity." Ludendorff also strongly suggested road.

Qin Tian hesitated for a moment, then made up his mind. Even though this would further deteriorate the relationship between him and Little Mao Qi, he couldn't care less about it. There are only a few years before the war breaks out, and there is no more time to waste.

"Okay, I'll send a telegram to Berlin immediately. This time, Prittwitz must be transferred from the 8th Army. Regarding the successor of the 17th Army Commander, please think about it and report to me tomorrow!" Qin Tian Said.

"Yes, Your Highness." Both Hindenburg and Ludendorff smiled. Qin Tian was able to show his courage on this issue, which made them very satisfied. Although, Qin Tian has been kind to them in promoting them, they should try their best to help them. But they also hope that the monarch they assist is a courageous and talented person, not an indecisive person. There is no doubt that Qin Tian's current performance makes them very satisfied.
