Chapter 1881: People are divided into two groups

"Prussia is very powerful, but the rift cannot be bridged. This is like a power dispute within a large family. If no one can overwhelm the other, what is the best option to avoid the same death? You should be clear." Hesitated. At once, August III finally said some very important things rather obscurely.

"This... They actually want..." Albrecht's pupils shrank suddenly. For a moment, the grand prince seemed to realize something extraordinary. After a few minutes, the prince who was sweating cold took out the handkerchief from his pocket tremblingly.

　　 "If this is the case, the situation is complicated." The Grand Duke said with a sigh.

"Actually, the parliamentary faction is stronger than we thought. Don’t forget that there are three free cities and the Alsace-Lorraine region within the empire. These places are not traditional domains of the nobility, and some small states are also It is easy to be captured from the inside." Auguste III said. "So, do you understand what I mean?"

　　 Listening to the low voice on the opposite side, Albrecht was lost in thought. The Grand Duke who could reach 80 points in politics naturally understood what the King of Saxony meant! He had thought that Prussia would be separated in the future and a country dominated by party politics would be established. Then the future empire would be the Big Three. After Auguste III emphasized the possible allies of the parliamentarians, the Grand Duke realized a problem. , That is, Bavaria, Kaiser Prussia, and Parliament Prussia are all capable of vetoing a proposal on the empire level. After all, it is now three-quarters of the pass to be effective!

　　 If you can see the above two points, the political level must reach 70 points. Then, as a good student with 80 points, what can Grand Duke Albrecht see? That is, as a second-level player, the future of the Kingdom of Württemberg may be difficult...

　　 How was it back then? The Prussian family dominates. Sometimes for their own interests, the three southern kingdoms need to work together, and there is bound to be some exchange of interests. Württemberg is important to both Prussia and Bavaria. You can go both ways. If Bavaria wants to veto a proposal, it must have the support of Württemberg. After all, the difference between 6 votes and 17 votes is a bit big...

　　 But the situation is different now. After this war, the number of votes of Bavaria in the Federal Parliament will increase, and the proportion will increase. Coupled with the Grand Duchy of Saxony and the two Mecklenburg families that helped them restore the country, Bavaria has the ability to independently reject proposals.

The Kaiser Prussia also has it, because after all, the Kaiser has the support of the Grand Duchy of Baden and the Grand Duchy of Oldenburg. (The daughter of the Grand Duke of Oldenburg married the son of Wilhelm II.) After the support of the two Grand Duchys, the Kaiser Prussia also has the ability to reject a proposal.

　　Even the weakest parliamentary faction among the three parties, they can also get the support of the 3 free cities (Bremen, Hamburg, Lübeck) and the empire of Alsace-Lorraine! Many places in the pro-kingdoms and principalities of the empire are only square kilometers. In fact, the significance of this state to the empire lies in the vote of the Federal Assembly... It is really difficult for them to resist such a behemoth as the Social Democratic Party! Therefore, it is possible to recognize counsel when necessary and follow one party.

As a result, the status of the Kingdom of Württemberg is a bit embarrassing. Any party can easily veto a proposal without the help of Württemberg. If a proposal is to be passed, the Big Three must agree. What happened to the Kingdom of Württemberg... So from the perspective of political pragmatism, Württemberg's status has been reduced!

　　 Now the question is, what should the Kingdom of Württemberg do if it wants to guarantee its own interests? The current way to be sure is to hold the thigh. The only difference is which thigh to choose? Parliamentary Prussia can be skipped directly. This time the parliamentary faction has caused an extremely negative impact on the kingdom. The bourgeois parliamentary system and the king are inherently hostile. Württemberg will never follow the parliamentary faction.

　　The German Emperor is not a good choice, because, from the perspective of Württemberg's history, the key between this kingdom and Prussia is not much harmony. Now that the power and prestige of the Kaiser have dropped drastically, Grand Duke Albrecht also expressed doubts about the Kaiser’s own capabilities, so the Kaiser option can also be removed.

So now it is obvious that the best choice is naturally to cooperate with Bavaria, which has a good relationship with the Kingdom of Württemberg in history. Now, Grand Duke Albrecht finally understands the purpose of what the King of Saxony said. I wanted to persuade the kingdom of Württemberg to form an alliance with Bavaria.

However, Albrecht expressed his gratitude for the help that Bavaria gave to the Kingdom of Württemberg during the turmoil, but at the same time, the interests of the kingdom made him have to fight for the part of the benefits that the Kingdom of Württemberg deserves~www.wuxiaspot.com ~Maybe the Grand Duchy of Baden and the Kingdom of Saxony are not very interested in opening up their territories, but Württemberg is different.

"The Kingdom of Bavaria is a trustworthy friend. Before the establishment of the empire, Bavaria has ensured that the surrounding states will not be squeezed by Prussia and Austria. Our friendship is very long." The Grand Duke said: "Then the distribution of benefits this time How to proceed? Do the king and the crown prince have any ideas?" In fact, the Grand Duke is also asking how much Württemberg can get this time!

"There are two options. The first option is to directly select Russian Poland. Bavaria and Prussia are preparing to allocate 30,000 square kilometers of territory to other kingdoms. The second option is more remote Ukraine, the Baltic coast, and In other regions of Russia, more land can be allocated here." Auguste III said.

　　 "What about Transcaucasus?" the Grand Duke asked.

"Theoretically, the Transcaucasus region can also be distributed, but because it is at the crossroads of the entire Eurasian continent, with Russia to the north, Turkey's allies to the south, and the Caspian Sea to the east and the Black Sea to the west. The strategic position is very important and the ethnic issues are also more complicated. If you want to be there, there must be a large number of garrisons, and the garrisons must be placed under the command of His Royal Highness Ruprecht. Saxony is not interested anyway.” August III said.

　　 "In comparison, what Saxony wants is Poland, and we can probably allocate a square kilometer of land. Although it is less, the foundation is not bad." August III said very candidly.
