Chapter 565： Funeral (700 votes plus more)

Time passed little by little, and when the sun rose, the residents of downtown Berlin finally walked out of their homes. The sound of gunfire has long since ceased, and the smell of gunpowder smoke in the air has completely dissipated. However, it seemed that a little residual **** smell could still be smelled.

On the street, bomb craters and some buildings that were blown up can also be seen. There are even dense bullet holes on the buildings around the street. People started talking about what really happened last night.

Some people speculated that it was enemy forces who had infiltrated Berlin. Our army fought a fierce battle with the enemy.

Some people also speculated that there was a rebellion, because the two warring parties were obviously the Guards and Army guarding around Berlin, as well as soldiers wearing another kind of military uniform.

Ordinary people know very little information, which makes them naturally develop various guesses and associations. If they are allowed to continue to speculate and associate, the rumors will inevitably intensify, and even endanger the stability of society.

Fortunately, Qin Tian already had a countermeasure against this. Early in the morning, there were publicity vehicles organized by the government and the military to publicize what happened to the public. Confidentially to the people about the rebellion masterminded by Crown Prince William, Prince Ettel Friedrich, Little Moltke, Duke of Württemberg, Marshal Goltz, Lieutenant General Prittwitz and Marshal Graf.

Qin Tian, ​​Prime Minister Bi Luo and others discussed whether to conceal the truth. The government originally planned to cover it up, but Qin Tian did not agree. After all, William II was killed by Crown Prince William during the rebellion, and this must be known to the public. Otherwise, there will definitely be a lot of speculation among the people about the death of William II. At that time, it will inevitably cause unnecessary troubles, and even lead to Qin Tian. Qin Tian didn't want his right to inherit the throne to be questioned because of this.

However, it was obvious that Qin Tian himself was worrying too much. After the war broke out, the army commanded by Qin Tian won major victories on the Eastern and Western Fronts. This has already made countless people of the empire pay homage to him. Although William II broke the law of succession to the throne and made Qin Tian the crown prince of the empire, which caused dissatisfaction among some people. But in front of Qin Tian's achievements, those dissatisfaction and doubts have long since disappeared.

"God! Didn't Crown Prince William become a vegetable? Why did he suddenly wake up again?"

"I don't know, maybe it's a medical miracle. However, it is God's blessing that he can wake up. But why did he launch a rebellion? He also killed His Majesty the Emperor. This is really despicable and shameless. You know , His Majesty the Emperor is his father!"

"Hmph! Isn't it for inheriting the throne? After waking up from a vegetative state, he found that his crown prince had flown away. Moreover, His Royal Highness Oscar still did such a good job, he must be jealous. In such a situation Now, of course, anything can be done.”

"Yeah! For the sake of the throne, even family affection is ignored. Such a person should not live in this world at all. It was a complete mistake for God to wake him up from a vegetative state. Let him sleep all the time and die in a deep sleep. It's the best!"

"The most pitiful ones are undoubtedly the soldiers of the Praetorian Guards. They are the ones who are innocent! It was the commanders who asked them to do that. They were just obeying orders. Now it's all right, take yourself It was taken in."

"In addition to Crown Prince William and Prince Friedrich, there are so many big figures involved. Even Moltke, who was the former chief of staff! There are also big figures like the Duke of Württemberg. This Wouldn't it cause chaos in the empire?"

"Hmph! These guys are even more damnable. Now is the time for the empire to fight against Britain and France. Seeing that our army has already gained the upper hand on the battlefield. The army led by His Royal Highness is defeating the enemy and winning the victory. But they But doing this in the rear, isn't this going to make us lose the war? Once the war is lost, everything will be over."

"Yeah! It's too bad. If we lose the war, then they are the culprits. They should all be hanged."

"Fortunately, it didn't cause too much impact. But even so, they can't be spared lightly. Hanging them is absolutely right."

The people of the empire almost unconditionally sided with Qin Tian in this rebellion. After all, Qin Tian's side is obviously victorious now. People also hope to be on the side of the winner. In addition, Qin Tian's performance is undoubtedly much more dazzling than Crown Prince William, who has made no achievements in the position of Crown Prince. The people of the empire naturally hope that the empire will develop better and better. In this way, they will be able to enjoy a series of benefits after the empire becomes stronger.

Although, there are still some unfavorable voices against Qin Tian. However, generally speaking, the people of the empire are on Qin Tian's side. This made Qin Tian heave a sigh of relief.

Qin Tian discussed with the cabinet and military ministers about the funeral time of William II. Since William II has passed away for three days, if it is delayed any longer, the body will rot.

So, Qin Tian and the cabinet set the date of William II's funeral as April 30th.

Although, time is very tight, and the funeral cannot be prepared too well because of the rush of time. But now is the period of war, and it is understandable to keep everything simple.

On the morning of April 30th, the heads of states of the empire, important members of the cabinet and military leaders, as well as the nobles and representatives of all walks of life of the empire, attended the funeral of William II. The whole funeral, although simple, was solemn and solemn. For Wilhelm II, although he was a bit headstrong and conceited, he led Germany to become stronger step by step. Many of them attended the funeral to see off their beloved emperor.

William II was buried in the Royal Cemetery. Although, his hegemony has not yet been completed. However, the empire has shown signs of final victory. It can be said that the victory of the empire in this war is already foreseeable.

"The hegemony you haven't achieved, I will definitely achieve it for you. The future German Empire will definitely become the most powerful empire in the world." Qin Tian said in his heart in front of the tombstone of William II.
