Chapter 2262: Wind Rise and Cloud Chapter
Although Germany is now a three-part world, Bavaria, Kaiser-Prussia and Federal Prussia have their own systems, but the imperial government still has great powers, such as taxation, education, transportation, postal services, military, and righteousness. ! As the successor of old Prussia, both the Kaiser and the parliament have the ability to fight for the rights of this central government. Regardless of religion or history, it is possible for anyone to form a cabinet. Therefore, interest determines policy. On the central government issue that is of great importance, Bavaria has nothing to do with itself. As long as it does not go too far, the state of Bavaria will not be far from the state before the war. But for the Kaiser and the parliamentarians, there is no room for maneuver in the power struggle of the central government!
Therefore, at this time, the Grand Duke of Baden would rather suffer a little loss and ally with Bavaria to get the parliamentary faction, rather than risking the temptation to take more points and ally with the parliamentary faction to calculate Bavaria. This tm risk and return are simply not proportional!
"Politically speaking, your choice is right, but, do you know how many people are waiting for the reparations of the war of profit, whether it is us or the parliamentary faction, from nobles and capitalists to ordinary civilians and soldiers? They are all waiting to share the war dividends! We even need to use these war reparations to pay military pensions and disability subsidies! We need to use this money to repay loans! After the war, the military yoke was gone, but our necks There is also a rope called economy! We don't have many choices." This time, the Kaiser said to Grand Duke Baden with a rare stern tone.
Does the emperor know the political risks involved? of course I know! It's just that you know something, and you must make a choice! As the emperor, he actually represents the interests of a large number of people, including nobles, old Juncker officers, political parties that tend to the royal family, and some citizens. Everyone chooses you because they think you can lead everyone to get more benefits. , And if there is a problem in the final distribution of benefits, who can guarantee that there will be no problems within the unstable German Kaiser faction just after a political turmoil?
Money is not everything, but no money is absolutely impossible! Therefore, both the Kaiser and the Grand Duke of Baden made sense, but the Kaiser was from the perspective of the leader to choose one of the two not very good choices. It was reasonable, and the Grand Duke of Baden was on the staff. The angle said that he did not trust the parliamentary faction!
"Actually, we can have a frank talk with Prince Ruprecht. The issues we are discussing can certainly be thought of by the crown prince, and compared to the parliamentarians who have no faith, the reputation of the crown prince is still very good. At least from the current point of view, no matter whether it is an agreement reached publicly or privately, there has never been a breach of trust. Although it is a joke to put the hope of success on someone’s credibility, I think this is a good way to let me choose. "Little Maoqi thought for a while and said.
"Hehe, brother, do you think the same way?" The Kaiser looked at Grand Duke Baden and said.
"Prepare with both hands." Grand Duke Baden thought for a while and decided to give the Kaiser a step.
"Very well, I will let Prince Albert communicate with other principalities, and the parliament will ask Holweger to contact him, and you will contact Bavaria." The Kaiser thought for a while and said.
In the end, the Kaiser decided to walk on two legs, so what are the parliamentarians up to now? What are Albert, Landsberg, Barthes, Hassell, and Dietman discussing?
"The signal of temptation has been sent, but the Kaiser has not made a clear statement." Landsberg of the Social Democratic Party said first.
"It is normal. Compared to Bavaria, we have more conflicts with the Kaiser. If the Kaiser agrees in one fell swoop, it will be abnormal." said Barthes of the Social Democratic centrist.
"We are all for the good of Germany, aren't we? We don't want to take away what Bavaria deserves, but to exclude the Austro-Hungarian Empire. After all, the barbed wire and trenches on the Western Front neutralized more than 4 million Anglo-French forces. We are the one who has been playing for more than 2 years! Not Bavaria, not Austria!" Landsberg said.
"So you think the Kaiser should stand with us?" Barthes asked.
"At least on this issue, we can reach some intentions. The gains of this war are not as great as we expected. We have lost too much national power and money. After the war, it is impossible for Britain and France to pay enough in a short time. The funds to satisfy all aspects, so in this case, we can only do this, win some, give up some." Landsberg said.
"We want to exclude Austria and weaken Bavaria, but how do you ensure that the Kaiser chooses to ally with us instead of Bavaria?" asked Hasai of the Social Democratic centrist.
Someone may ask, why didn’t the Social Democrats choose to ally with Bavaria? The reason for this lies in the governance philosophy and goals of the Social Democratic Party. Albert and others are pursuing it. Otherwise ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ a politician can't get to this point with his wrist alone, you must Have your own ideas and guidelines, and let a group of people follow you sincerely, so that you can get things done!
The rule of the German emperor and the Junker nobles must be uprooted, and a country like Bavaria also needs to be eliminated! In the current situation, Bavaria is the strongest in Germany, and it has close ties with Austria-Hungary. Therefore, in the eyes of Albert and others, Bavaria, which is the largest and has too close ties with foreign countries, can at least not obtain too much. Many benefits, otherwise it will make the empire's internal tail big. It can be said that the idea of Albert and others is a bourgeois political party with a national nature, and the Kaiser is more based on the regime and the interests of his own country. The positions of the two sides are also somewhat different!
"Let’s not talk about Bavaria. At least, on the issue that Austria should not get a lot of compensation on the Western Front, the Kaiser should have a similar view with us. After all, apart from a little heavy artillery support and the final battle for Bavaria’s strength, Austria does not Didn't make any contribution on the Western Front, why do they share the benefits of going on the Western Front? We give Austria a part of the benefits just to take care of the face of allies." Landsberg said.
"Bavaria and Austria are actually one body. We let Bavaria gain some benefits from it. It is actually equal to Austria. To be honest, Crown Prince Ruprecht's marriage problem is a stain in North Germany. It is said that he and Mary The princess's future residence will be in Austria. Even for this reason, Ruprecht must consider avoiding suspicion for his own reputation." Dietman said.
