Chapter 540 Crown Prince William

Little Mao Qi quietly listened to the nagging of Lieutenant General Plittwitz, although he didn't think that Lieutenant General Plittwitz's complaints were all right. However, he knew that Lieutenant General Prittwitz had resentment in his heart, and if he was not allowed to vent it, it might cause more serious consequences.

Lieutenant General Prittwitz knew Lieutenant General Plitvice very well. He didn't have any abilities. Apart from being able to figure out other people's thoughts and please others, he had no abilities. Even if he became the commander of the 8th Army, he would definitely not be able to lead the 8th Army to a brilliant victory on the Eastern Front.

Although Xiao Maoqi was dissatisfied with Qin Tian, ​​he still recognized Qin Tian's ability. Originally, the 8th Army was the army with the worst combat effectiveness in the German Army. However, after Qin Tian became the commander of the 8th Army, through a lot of investment, the 8th Army has been completely changed, so that the combat effectiveness of the 8th Army has become the most powerful among the several German armies. .

Moreover, in the subsequent war on the Eastern Front, Qin Tian's command of the 8th Army was also very appropriate. Whether it was luring the enemy to go deep, or uniting with the Austro-Hungarian Empire to severely damage the Russian army, he performed very well. Xiao Moqi even thought that even if it was him, he probably wouldn't be able to do better than this.

As for Lieutenant General Prittwitz, if he was the commander of the 8th Army, it is estimated that the German army would not only fail to win on the Eastern Front, but would suffer a disastrous defeat. In that case, it is hard to say whether Germany can win the war.

Of course, these are what Xiao Maoqi thinks in his heart. However, on the surface, he didn't express anything, let alone say it. Although he is not happy with Lieutenant General Prittwitz, he will not offend Lieutenant General Prittwitz either. After all, the current him is no longer the chief of the general staff who holds a lot of power, but just an old man with leisure time at home.

Lieutenant General Prittwitz complained for a while before stopping. Then he looked at Little Mao Qi, and continued: "Your Excellency, I know, you will definitely not be reconciled!"

Xiao Maoqi smiled wryly: "If you are not reconciled, what can you do? Now, we are all losers, and we can no longer confront His Royal Highness. He led the army and won a crucial victory in this war. He has won. It is foreseeable that in the future, his position will be more stable, and no one can fight against him. If we persist in our obsession, the final result will be to hit the stone with the pebble."

Lieutenant General Prittwitz nodded: "Your Excellency, that is indeed the case. That kid Oscar is very lucky."

"However, Your Excellency Earl, it is not that we have no chance at all. Now, we have an excellent opportunity. If it works well, it may not be impossible to pull him down. Even, we can all get huge benefits ’” Lieutenant General Prittwitz said.

After Xiao Maoqi heard this sentence, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows. It would be the best if Qin Tian could be pulled down from the position of crown prince. But is it that easy? At least, Xiao Moqi thinks this will be very, very difficult.

"Your Excellency, Lieutenant General, what do you want to do? Launch a coup d'état?" Little Maoqi looked serious.

No matter which country, it will not be too tolerant towards those who launch a coup. Once successful, they will certainly be able to gain high positions and wield enormous power. However, if you fail, you may lose your life.

"Your Excellency, it's not a coup d'état. I promise, we have absolutely legitimate reasons. How about it, Your Excellency, I will take you to a place and meet someone. After that, you will understand everything." Prithvi Lieutenant General Ci said.

Little Maoqi didn't answer immediately, but fell into deep thought.

Reason told him that the actions of Lieutenant General Plitvice and the others were too risky. If you don't pay attention, you will lose your wealth and life. However, the ambition that had been suppressed in his heart resurfaced again. He is also a person who is extremely greedy for power. Otherwise, he would never have tried to rely on his relationship with William II to keep his position after failing to achieve the expected success on the Western Front.

Now, Lieutenant General Prittwitz suddenly told him that there was such an opportunity, which naturally moved his heart.

"Okay, I'll take a look with Lieutenant General Prittwitz. I want to see what they're up to. If it's unreliable, then I will refuse to participate." Xiao Moqi secretly made up his mind determined.

"Your Excellency, Lieutenant General, let me go with you!" Little Maoqi said.

"Yes, Your Excellency the Earl. I believe that you will definitely make the right choice." Lieutenant General Prittwitz had a happy expression on his face, as if he had confirmed that Little Mao Qi would join them.

Xiao Maoqi was also guessing in his heart, who Lieutenant General Plitvice would take him to see. One name after another flashed through his mind. However, no one can compare with Qin Tian, ​​the current crown prince of the empire.

Little Moltke and Lieutenant General Plittwitz left Berlin overnight in a car and headed for Potsdam. The car did not go to the imperial palace in Potsdam, but to a remote estate.

After the gate of the manor was opened, the car drove directly in.

"Please, Your Excellency the Earl," said Lieutenant General Prittwitz.

Under the guidance of Lieutenant General Plitvice, Little Moltke entered the hall.

A young man was standing inside with a small face. Little Maoqi naturally knew this person, he was the second son of William II, Prince Ethel Friedrich.

"Your Excellency, good evening!" Prince Ethel Friedrich greeted.

"Hi, Your Highness." Little Maoqi nodded.

At the same time, he also thought about it in his heart. Could it be that Prince Ethel Friedrich wanted to connect with Lieutenant General Prittwitz and others to launch a coup?

However, Xiao Moqi obviously didn't like them. After all, although Prince Ethel Friedrich is the second son of William II, he absolutely cannot compare with Qin Tian in terms of ability or influence in the country. Little Moqi thought that if they launched a coup, they would definitely lose.

"Your Excellency, please come with me." Prince Ethel Friedrich said.

Little Maoqi was taken aback, why, isn't the person he wants to meet Prince Ethel Friedrich?

Little Moltke followed Prince Ethel Friedrich to the bedroom on the second floor. When the bedroom door opened, Little Maoqi froze for a moment. What appeared in front of him was a man in a wheelchair. And this person, Little Mao Qi knew, and was very familiar with him. He was the eldest son of Emperor William II, the former Crown Prince of the Empire.
