At the beginning, Crown Prince William wanted to force William II to return the position of Crown Prince to him. However, later, under the persuasion of everyone, he decided to go a step further, that is, to let William II abdicate early, and he directly succeeded to the throne early.
Compared with re-becoming the crown prince, it is undoubtedly more tempting and less troublesome to directly succeed to the throne as the emperor. If he becomes the crown prince, William II is still the emperor, and the power is still in his hands. In other words, William II could depose him as crown prince again at any time, and that would be too unsafe.
If you directly succeed to the throne and become emperor, there will be no such problems. After becoming the emperor, all the power is in his hands, and there is no one to restrain him. He can do whatever he wants, and no one can threaten him anymore.
Compared with the two, Crown Prince William will naturally choose to directly succeed to the throne and become emperor. That would undoubtedly be more beneficial to him.
All, after seeing William II, Crown Prince William directly had a showdown.
"What? How dare you force me to abdicate?" William II was furious. He never expected that Crown Prince William would dare to be so bold and have such great ambitions. This disappointed William II very much. After all, he loved Crown Prince William very much before. Even after Qin Tian showed his outstanding talent, he didn't immediately depose Crown Prince William's position. Instead, he waited until he became a vegetative state and let Qin Tian inherit the position as a last resort.
In the eyes of William II, he has done his best to Crown Prince William. But I didn't expect that Crown Prince William would treat him like this now. This made William II very disappointed and very sad in his heart.
However, at the same time, he also felt a little lucky. That is, it was fortunate that the crown prince was passed on to Qin Tian, otherwise, he would never have known that Crown Prince William was such a person.
"Father, you are already old, and it is time to enjoy your old age. The government affairs of the empire are so heavy, let me handle them." Crown Prince William said. Now, he has fully revealed his ambition for the throne. Now that this is the case, there is no way out at all. Therefore, he has only one way to go to the dark.
"You are trying to usurp the throne! I absolutely do not agree!" William II sternly refused. European monarchs have always been succeeded by the prince after his death. Those who abdicate early are very few. In addition, William II is also a person who is very fond of power, how could he easily hand over the power in his hands? That hurt him more than killing him.
"Father, don't be obsessed with it!" Crown Prince William's face was ugly. He did not expect that under such circumstances, William II refused to pass on the throne to him. This also made Crown Prince William's thoughts even more extreme.
In Crown Prince William's mind, the reason why William II was unwilling to pass on the throne to him was entirely because William II liked Qin Tian more. This made him unacceptable. After all, he had always been Wilhelm II's most distinguished son. He thought that Qin Tian couldn't compare with him except for his better luck. However, William II valued Qin Tian even more, which undoubtedly made him very jealous.
"Your Majesty, this is the end of the matter, and you seem to have no other choice." Lieutenant General Prittwitz said aside.
The other generals who came with Crown Prince William also nodded repeatedly.
They have launched a mutiny this time, if they fail, then they will only have a dead end. Under such circumstances, of course they will try their best to ensure success. If William II is obsessed with his obsession, then they will have to take a more extreme path.
"Plittwitz, you ungrateful guy, I won't let you go!" William II stared fiercely at Lieutenant General Plittwitz.
Lieutenant General Prittwitz couldn't help being frightened, after all, William II is the emperor! If William II survives this catastrophe, he will definitely be attacked. At that time, he will be dead. This also made Lieutenant General Prittwitz determined that this time the plan must be successful.
"Little Maoqi, I have always regarded you as my closest friend. But I never thought that you would treat me like this?" William II looked at Xiao Maoqi, his eyes were full of disappointment. You know, they were playmates who grew up together. After he became the emperor, he even leaned on little Mao Qi as his humerus and used him all the time. Even if Little Maoqi made a big mistake while commanding the Western Front, he did not hold Little Maoqi responsible, but only dismissed Little Maoqi from his post. In William II's view, this is already special preferential treatment for little Maoqi. But now, little Maoqi is avenging him.
"Your Majesty, since you dismissed me, we have ceased to be friends. I am certainly responsible for not being able to accomplish the intended goals in the Western Front, but the responsibility should not be entirely on me, right? You let I'll be the scapegoat. Can this still be considered a friend?" Xiao Maoqi questioned.
King William II was suddenly speechless. Indeed, the Western Front failed to achieve the intended goal, and there are many reasons for this. But, who made little Mao Qi the commander? If he doesn't come out and take responsibility, who will? We can't let William II take the responsibility himself.
"Father, our time is running out, please issue an abdication edict!" Crown Prince William urged.
The reason why they launched a mutiny this time was able to succeed entirely because William II was not prepared. The longer the delay, the more prone to accidents. After all, the army in their hands is only more than 10,000 imperial guards. Once it is noticed by others, or if Qin Tian who is far away in France knows, the consequences will be unimaginable. Qin Tian sent troops into Berlin casually, and he was able to suppress them. Therefore, they could only seize the time as much as possible and force William II to abdicate before Qin Tian and others could react. In the name of William II, he tricked Qin Tian to Berlin and put him under house arrest. At that time, it will be considered a success.
"Delusion! I will never abdicate!" William II gritted his teeth and said.
"Father, don't force me!" Crown Prince William was furious.
"Forcing you, are you forcing me or am I forcing you? You bastard!" William II was furious, and rushed to Crown Prince William's body in two or three steps, and slapped him across the face.
"Snapped!"
Crown Prince William received a slap with such force that he was slapped directly under the wheelchair. Half of his face was swollen, and a trace of blood was left along the corner of his mouth.
"Damn it! I'll kill you!" Crown Prince William was furious, and directly pulled out his pistol.
"boom!"
Gunshots rang out, William II clutched his chest, and fell to the ground in disbelief.
