Chapter 1843: Only requests made by others

What is the ultimate goal of Bavaria in domestic issues? Isn’t it the hope that the Kaiser faction and the parliamentary faction will stalemate and eventually split Prussia? This situation can only be achieved when neither of the two parties can deal with the opponent. Judging from the current situation, the parliamentary faction is relatively weak and at a disadvantage, but the Kaiser? Although the apparent strength is stronger, there are too many unstable factors in the army. Most of the high-level Germans do not want to fight, so the overall advantage is limited. His Royal Highness has a very good balance in the first half!

And fortunately, most of the high-level Germans on the western front are actually neutral. They think similar to the navy. The reason why it is not obvious is because the British helped them a lot. Crook and others used the pretext of responding to the British and French attacks. Avoid participating in domestic struggles.

Therefore, from the Kaiser’s point of view, Crook and others also belong to the group that is not firm and will go to liquidation if there is a chance in the future, and Crook and others are also very aware of this situation, so , They are looking for a way to avoid liquidation like Scheer! Some of them may have thought of peace talks, but it is not convenient to bring them up. After all, as a Prussian soldier, no one is willing to bear the charge that may lead to the division of Prussia!

　　Similarly, Bavaria and other kingdoms, as "outsiders", cannot openly propose a negotiation between the two parties. Because if it is proposed by Ruprecht or the Grand Duke of Württemberg, it will make Prussian insiders wary, because everyone knows that negotiation in such a situation of balance of power means the division of rights. And this division will inevitably lead to a decline in the cohesion within Prussia, which is exactly what Bavaria needs! Therefore, this proposal can be made by people within Prussia or by a neutral party, but it must not be made by the Kingdom of Bavaria!

　　 And now, Scheer proposed in the name of the Navy is undoubtedly the best result! First of all, the German navy is the navy of the entire empire and does not belong to a certain kingdom. This is different from the army and the air force, because the latter belongs to the king. The Second German Empire has never had an imperial army, roughly divided into two types. , Provided by Prussia and provided by Bavaria... (Although Saxony and Württemberg can manage their own armies in peacetime, the military expenses are paid by Prussia, and only Bavaria is completely theirs.) So after Schell put forward this proposal in the name of the German Navy, no one had any objection.

　　Secondly, the method proposed by Scheer is not public, but a suggestion to Mackensen and others through a private meeting. This is a personal communication, and this is not a sin. As for the spread of news? Mackensen is relatively fragile politically. He can't make up his mind and will inevitably send a telegram to the big bosses on the Western Front. In this way, those who originally wanted to make peace talks on the Western Front have an excuse. Anyway, this opinion He didn't bring it up either, they just "feel reasonable". This is the so-called herd mentality.

Of course, in order for more senior military leaders to agree with the peace talks, there are other things to do, that is, to keep the German military out of the matter as much as possible. In this case, when they look at this issue in a neutral manner, rather than someone’s When he was a subordinate, the Kaiser, who lost further support from the army, had only one way to negotiate.

At the same time, General Mackensen moved quickly. After he returned to the command post, he immediately sent a telegram to the senior army group on the western front to clarify the matter. In the next day, the four commanders of the German army group in Brussels once again Gathered together to discuss the telegram received last night.

　　 "Admiral Scheer raised the issue of peace talks, what do you think?" Relying on the support of other army commanders, Crook already faintly has the temperament of a leader, he said by tapping the telegram on the table with his hand.

"Negotiation means compromise. The parliamentarians are more likely to accept it, but the Kaiser may not. His Majesty should be very irritable now, and based on our contact with Little Mochi, His Majesty still dreams of returning to the past." Will say.

The German officer regiment still controls the upper ranks of the army. It is true that people like Albrecht, the Grand Duke of Württemberg, are an anomaly and are not very popular, while Pinov and General Helingen are also anomalies. Their political inclinations are too obvious, and they may be nothing in peacetime. But now, it is clear that most people in the army are still very different from Pinov and others. After experiencing these things, the officer corps is actually a semi-independent military force and does not rely on the Kaiser to exist. Therefore, at this time, the second person to speak can only be Hausen. The other two people will speak. Make Crook dissatisfied.

　　 "What's wrong with going back in time?" Pinov said. "We can't let those congressmen and capitalists step on our heads, right? Look at what they do, the front is tight, the rear is tight!"

"But at this point, is there nothing wrong with His Majesty the Kaiser? If it weren't for your Majesty’s repeated attempts to weaken Bavaria~www.wuxiaspot.com~, the relationship between the two countries was at a trough, and the parliament sent those guys to ten dare not to make trouble. "After being brainwashed by Lieutenant General Hall in the last round, Admiral Howson had a very bad impression of the Kaiser.

　　 "However, it is correct to weaken Bavaria to ensure that Prussia's position in the empire is correct. Look at the Austro-Hungarian empire before the start of the war. A dual system is a disaster for the empire!" Pinov stared.

"Very well, since you think you are right, Prince Leopold is here. When we meet with him, you can explain your views to him in person. However, he accuses him of Bavarian's non-cooperation. Such a situation." Admiral Howson sneered: "Do you dare?!"

"Okay, everyone, be quiet." Crook looked at the generals in front of him with a calm face: "From the Kaiser's point of view, his starting point was not wrong, but things were not done well, which made the whole situation worse. Now, this is a mistake in itself! Are there too few such things in the world? Right and wrong have nothing to do with the starting point! And I agree with General Scheer’s statement that the imperial army should first be loyal to its own motherland and then the nation. If you have to be loyal to a certain person, General Pinov, you can first ask your soldiers what they think. Of course, before doing so, let me know first. If something goes wrong, I can also mediate."

　　 There is a hint of sarcasm in Crook's words. After all, it hasn’t been long before General Heilingen’s lessons have passed before Pinov knows how to learn a lesson?
