Chapter 613: Go to vienna

"I will let Xiao Maoqi communicate with the General Staff of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, but you cannot get the authorization of the General Staff. You must rely on your own strength to convince Emperor Fritz." The German Emperor thought for a while and said. . If it was authorized by the Prussian General Staff to the prince, then Prussia would need to endorse what the prince had said. The Austro-Hungarian Empire could not help Germany in vain to resist the Russian attacks. They would definitely offer conditions, and Prussia would naturally not be willing to waste too much. More energy is on the Eastern Front. The Emperor's meaning is very clear, since His Highness is willing to be responsible for the Eastern Front, then he must pay for it.

"I can endorse the conditions put forward by the Austro-Hungarian Empire, but I need a name." Ruprecht felt a little dissatisfied. Bavaria is just a state. Historically, the German troops on the eastern front have been maintained at 70. Million or more. It was not enough to throw all the Bavarian army in, and this time, the Kaiser did not seem to plan to put in extra troops, which made Bavaria very embarrassed.

  "With the border between Prussia and Bavaria, the Prussian legion is responsible for the north, and you and Austria-Hungary are responsible for the south to Austria. The imperial government will not interfere more." The Kaiser thought for a while and said.

  "This is not possible at all. The relationship between the two sides is unequal. It is impossible for the Austro-Hungarian Empire to obey the arrangements of a state, and it is impossible for us to act as the firefighting team of the Austro-Hungarian Empire." Ruprecht flatly refused. A state and an empire are negotiating terms, and the son-in-law makes a request to the old man. How can this be unreliable!

"Well, you were responsible for our economic assistance to the Austro-Hungarian Empire! This is the bottom line! We gave the Kingdom of Bavaria the greatest degree of freedom, and you only need to be responsible for blocking the first wave of Russian attacks. The safety of Silesian Industrial Zone." The Kaiser waved his hand, indicating that this was the final concession. In history, Germany did not have any financial assistance to the Austro-Hungarian Empire, but on this level, because Germany is close to the big benefactor of the United States, it has spare capacity to attract friends. 10% of all military loans are used to improve the combat effectiveness of the Austro-Hungarian Army, and the latter must firmly attract the Russian Army after the war!

   "Well, I will try my best." For this reason, Ruprecht couldn't help it. After leaving the palace, the prince immediately notified Earl Schelling to arrange the itinerary to Vienna. The Kaiser did not do everything right. This time, the prince went to Vienna with the first batch of 5 million US dollars in military aid!

  "Are our plans about to begin?" Three days later, when Ruprecht returned to Neuschwanstein and told Princess Mary of the matter, the latter said calmly.

   "Isn't this what you hoped? Directly intervene in Austrian affairs from a deeper level, so that Bavaria and Austria are closer together." The prince was a little surprised by his wife's performance. He originally thought she would be very happy.

"But this time, it was Bavaria and Austro-Hungary that resisted the powerful Russia. This huge European road roller is too powerful. We can't despise them because of their failure in the Far East. I feel the pressure is a little bit heavy." Mary was a little worried. Said.

"However, we have no retreat. When we fight on the Eastern Front, everything is doomed, and the Kaiser agrees, then we have to take responsibility. Believe me, Mary, I have never underestimated the Russians. Fighting power, only if we can persuade your father to proceed according to my plan, we have a complete chance to defeat Russia! And we will be given the fruits of victory.” Ruprecht said.

"Father, it is not so easy to compromise, and Grand Duke Ferdinand is also full of confidence in his own strength. They may not embarrass you in public, but it may be very difficult for them to cooperate with our actions." Mary He still knows a lot about the Austro-Hungarian empire. The ambition and strength of the Austro-Hungarian Empire have never matched. After Italy’s independence, it was unable to regain Northern Italy. The Austro-Hungarian Empire chose to expand in the Balkans, and the Austro-Hungarian Empire’s military power was really unable to match that of Serbia and behind it. Russia competes. But even in this case, the Austro-Hungarian Empire still wants to make a breakthrough in both the Polish defense and Serbia. This is very unrealistic.

   "If we want to make my father surrender, I am afraid that only an unforgettable failure can make my father understand the reality. We now want the Austro-Hungarian Army to cooperate with us, I am afraid it is a bit difficult." Mary said.

   "This is the easiest, but the most useless way." Ruprecht shook his head and said. "In order to achieve our goals, perhaps we do need the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, but this collapse must come later, and we must also retain as many troops as possible that are willing to accept us."

  "The army is loyal to the country, loyal to the emperor. Even Grand Duke Ferdinand is more suitable to represent this country than me. The basis for their willingness to cooperate is the friendly relations between Bavaria and the Austro-Hungarian Empire!" Mary said.

"Trust me, Archduke Ferdinand will not be an insurmountable obstacle. Don't ask why, do you want to worry, I won't do anything~www.wuxiaspot.com~ But Archduke Ferdinand will not be our obstacle ."

  For Grand Duke Ferdinand, the prince is not very worried, if nothing happens, he will become the fuse of the first battle. After he was assassinated, Grand Duke Carl was inferior to Princess Mary in terms of blood relationship and influence. The prince even thought that he was very sure that Fritz could not choose the crown prince for the time being. From the perspective of Princess Mary of this plane and the resources he possessed, it was more likely that the upper class in Austria would choose themselves instead of others. The lineage and status of Princess Mary, as well as the power in the hands of the prince are better conditions than others!

"Do your own thing. Our power in Austria needs to be maintained and expanded. It is a long-term process to seek a country. We must have allies and maintain our exposure in Austria. We cannot let the Austrians feel about us. Unfamiliar. We need to make friends with valuable people who are willing to help us. You need to do all of these. Leave the rest to me, especially those related to the military.” Ruprecht comforted.

"Of course, the most important thing is that we must give birth to a qualified successor for the future empire. My father is very concerned about this matter." A moment later, Ruprecht's words made Princess Mary's face lighten. red.

   "Okay, let's enjoy our two-person world. A week later, we will go to Vienna together, where there is a fierce battle waiting for us!"
