Chapter 1710: Berlin Conspiracy III
Chapter 1710 Berlin conspiracy (3)
"Hehe, I did not expect that the Kingdom of Bavaria is still our potential ally. To be honest, I have always wanted a unified and complete Germany, not a country with scattered sand. I have always believed that after the establishment of the German Empire, other kingdoms will be retained. And to give considerable independence is a very wrong thing!" Albert said a little unhappy.
"However, this is a historical problem, which cannot be solved or changed by us. I think our plan needs to be changed. It is enough to obtain Prussian and German central power. For Bavaria, it is better not to do anything in this operation. Reached," Landsberg said.
"Don't most of the factory owners and financiers in Prussia want Bavaria to be weakened?" Albert said somewhat unexpectedly.
"A philosopher once said that if the profit is as high as 300%, the capitalist will trample on all the laws of the world. If the price is right, the capitalist will sell the ropes that hang himself. The Prussian industrial giants have never been one. They are not one. Either you have a cooperative relationship with Bavaria, or you are afraid of the prince, so a considerable number of people will choose to wait and see.” Landsberg said.
"How much does it cost to buy these guys? Can Bavaria afford it?" Albert asked rhetorically.
"The oil in the Baku oil field is enough to buy a considerable number of investors, and the Ukrainian farms are enough to make the Junker nobles who yearn for land bow their heads. The former is an almost monopoly interest, and the latter? The post-war empire has a population of hundreds of millions. The question of eating in China is a very big cake! Even the Essen-Krupp family is negotiating with the Bavarian side." Landsberg said.
"Haha, it's hard to tell the question of the ownership of that place. The Kaiser didn't promise, and we can come back after we have the power!" Albert said with disdain.
"If you control the power, then it is impossible to obtain this oil field from Bavaria." At this time, Buhler, who had just been resting for less than two minutes, spoke again.
"Why?" Albert looked at each other complicatedly.
"Because, everyone, including me, will never fight a civil war with Bavaria because of the ownership of an oil field! You cannot convince the General Staff, let alone the right to order! Trust me, Mr. Albert, After this revolution, perhaps the imperial power of the German emperor is not there, maybe you will become the real prime minister of the empire, but the officer corps is still the officer corps, and the kingdom of Bavaria is still the kingdom of Bavaria." Buhler faced Albert's complexity and even disgusted. He said without hesitation.
"And you joined our team to change the German military." Albert said.
"Yes, but it is a very long process. The change of this class will even take longer than the overthrow of a dynasty. Moreover, all of us here hope that the German Empire has a better tomorrow, so, Military means is an impossible option. But if it is economic or other means, Bavaria has passed the most difficult period. After acquiring Bohemia and Moravia, Bavaria's comprehensive national strength is no longer weaker than that of Italy. After gaining more territory after World War I, the strength may be close to France's standards. And with the Austro-Hungarian Empire as Austrian aid outside, this is not a question of whether it can be defeated at all, but absolutely impossible. The problem of getting up." Buhler said.
"Will Bavaria really die?" Wells asked.
"You did not understand what I said, whether it is the officer group or other kingdoms, unless the Kingdom of Bavaria declares independence or treason, they will not meet each other at all. Because this is a zero-sum result! People with weapons in their hands do not want to fight. , Then in Germany, no one else can make them fight."
"Besides, believe me, Prince Ruprecht is a decisive, strong, and wise man. He will never succumb. He will use all his means to achieve victory. This is especially true for the distribution of benefits. !" Buhler said.
"You seem to admire this majesty," Wells said.
"I'm just stating a fact. We have to distinguish between primary and secondary goals. It is already very difficult to win the Prussian regime. At this time, the final result of setting two goals is very easy. The fundamental reason for our success is Prussia’s internal problems, while Bavaria is a seamless egg, we can’t find an entry point, and if we start from the outside, the cost is too high and the danger is too great.” Buhler said.
"Well, I will handle the relationship with the Kingdom of Bavaria cautiously. Now we discuss the next issue." Albert thought for a while and said: "At present, the best result the Navy can guarantee is to remain neutral. However, This neutrality may not take direct military action against us, so if the Mackensen Army on the Eastern Front uses civilian ships or asks the Navy to provide them with capacity, what should we do?” Although Albert is against everyone present Yes, but it is clear that everyone knows this is for Buhler.
"Two years have passed. Except for the merchant ships that are still used to transport iron ore with Norway, most of the merchant ships are in ports. They lack maintenance and sufficient crews. It is not easy to mobilize hastily. Although the Russian Baltic Fleet has already It's over, but there are still some submarines that survived. It is still very dangerous without the navy's escort. Therefore, if you want to leave the navy and do it alone, Mackenson has to take a considerable risk." Buhler thought about it and said.
"But it's still possible ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ We can't bet, after all, there is only one chance." Albert said.
"The best way is to wait and see the changes. When the revolution breaks out in Russia, at this time, the Kaiser will definitely order the Mackensen Army to launch an attack, because this is the final harvest period. And if Mackensen's army goes to the front If so, then under the current circumstances, it is not so easy for him to shrink his troops." Buhler said.
"It seems that we have to wait until the contradiction between the two kingdoms of Prussia and Bavaria has heated up, and after the revolution in Russia, after the Kaiser put the last maneuver power on the Eastern Front?" Albert asked.
"Yes, we have completed the layout, and the rest, just wait." Buhler nodded and said.
"We now need to control more troops, personnel and equipment, as well as sufficient materials. Everyone will work hard in these directions in the future. As for military matters, I will ask Mr. Bler." Albert said at last. .
