Chapter 571： Ascension to the throne and proclaiming the emperor (800 votes plus updates)

A vanguard of the German 9th Army arrived in Stuttgart first. Originally, they were ordered to protect those important factories. However, it was only after arriving in Stuttgart that the angry people had surrounded the palace of Württemberg, and most members of the guard had surrendered. Only a few people were entrenched in the kingdom, trying to resist.

The head of the regiment immediately changed the target of the battle and led the troops to the palace. When a large number of elite German troops arrived and surrounded the palace, this immediately made the two brothers Fortunatus and Gregor in the palace very nervous. Those guard soldiers also turned pale. Obviously, they all know that the consequences of confronting the elite army will inevitably be very miserable.

"Order the surrender in the palace, otherwise, we will launch an attack!" The regiment leader ordered.

Although, the royal palace is solemn. However, during this rebellion, fighting broke out even in the palace of Berlin, let alone the palace of the Kingdom of Württemberg in front of them.

When the cannons were erected and aimed at the palace, the artillerymen were ready to fire. Those guys who were stubbornly resisting in the palace couldn't hold on loyally anymore. Immediately they laid down their weapons, opened the palace gates, and surrendered to the Germans. Brothers Fortunatus and Gregor were also arrested. This time, the rebellion of the Kingdom of Württemberg came to an end. The entire rebellion had almost no substantial adverse effects on Germany. It was like a farce, which ended just after it started.

Of course, this rebellion also had an extremely profound impact on Germany. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Germany began to take back the power of local governments and further strengthened centralization. To ensure that the rule of the entire German Empire can be more effectively established.

As for the two brothers Fortunatus and Gregor, they naturally did not end well. They were tried by a special court, and in the end, the two were sentenced to hang for the crime of endangering national security and sabotage of war, following in the footsteps of their father. The Württemberg royal family, after being hit hard by this, was even more devastated. When faced with the central government's request to revoke the Kingdom of Württemberg and change it to the state of Württemberg, it was even more powerless to resist.

The rebellion in the Kingdom of Württemberg was easily suppressed, which allowed the internal problems of the German Empire to be temporarily resolved. Although, there are more or less some remaining problems, but generally speaking, it will not have any impact on the empire. Under such circumstances, Qin Tian's enthronement ceremony was naturally on the agenda.

After the death of William II, Qin Tian, ​​as the Crown Prince of the German Empire, was naturally the only heir to the German Empire's throne. If it wasn't for this rebellion that led to the death of William II, Qin Tian probably would have to ascend the throne for another 20 years if he wanted to inherit the throne. Therefore, to a certain extent, Qin Tian should also thank Crown Prince William for allowing him to become Emperor of the Empire more than twenty years earlier.

Of course, Crown Prince William has long been hanged. Even if I want to express my gratitude, I can't find someone to thank.

"Your Highness, the cabinet has discussed it. It is necessary to slow down temporarily when the kingdom of the Duke of Württemberg is changed to a state. It is best to wait until the empire wins this war. With the opportunity of a big victory, no one can oppose us Yes. At that time, it will naturally be able to get twice the result with half the effort." Prime Minister Bilo suggested.

Qin Tian nodded. If Germany won the war, it would indeed save a lot of trouble. It is also conducive to ensuring the social stability of the empire. Although the current empire has already won a key victory in the war. But there is undoubtedly still a long way to go before the final victory. France has not yet surrendered, the British are even more persistent, and Italy is still lingering. Therefore, next, Germany needs to work hard to defeat all these enemies. Only in this way can Germany win the war without any variables.

"Well, let's put it after the war." Qin Tian said.

"Your Highness, the next most important thing is your enthronement ceremony. The empire cannot be without an emperor for a long time. You are the crown prince of the empire, so you are naturally the sole legal heir to the imperial throne. We all believe that the enthronement ceremony of your highness, It needs to be held as soon as possible to stabilize people's hearts," Prime Minister Bilo said.

"Well, I have no objection. You can hold it whenever you want. However, I only have one request, and that is to keep everything simple." Qin Tian said. He didn't want to make it too troublesome, just like when William I was crowned emperor of the German Empire, it was very troublesome. Now is the war period, Qin Tian doesn't want to waste too much time on these aspects.

"Yes, Your Highness. The enthronement ceremony of His Highness will be held in three days!" Prime Minister Bilo said.

Qin Tian nodded in agreement.

On the morning of May 6, 1015, in the main hall of the Berlin Imperial Palace. The military and political officials of the empire, princes and nobles, representatives of big capitalists, big factory owners and big landlords, representatives of the scientific and cultural circles, and other celebrities all gathered together to participate in Qin Tian's enthronement ceremony .

The archbishop of the German diocese presided over the ceremony. Originally, the Pope intended to preside over the enthronement ceremony himself. After all, the possibility of Germany winning the war is very high, which makes theocracy have to bow to secular power. But it is a pity that the Pope is surrounded by the Kingdom of Italy, and the Kingdom of Italy is a country that is hostile to the Empire. This makes it impossible for the Pope to arrive in Berlin to attend Qin Tian's enthronement ceremony in person. God's blessing.

The archbishop told the people attending the enthronement ceremony that Qin Tian is a monarch blessed by God. His succession as the emperor of the German Empire will be expected by all, and God will allow it.

"Under the witness of God, Crown Prince Oscar, from now on, becomes the emperor of the German Empire!" The archbishop finally announced.

"Long live! Long live His Majesty the Emperor!" Everyone who participated in the enthronement ceremony shouted loudly. They were sincerely happy that Qin Tian could become the emperor of the empire.

When the bishop picked up the crown and was about to put it on for Qin Tian, ​​Qin Tian took the crown and put it on himself, which made the archbishop feel a little embarrassed. But no one noticed it.

Afterwards, Qin Tian picked up a smaller crown and put it on Princess Gundlinde, which represented that Gundlind would officially become the queen of the German Empire.

After Qin Tian succeeded to the throne, he became His Majesty Emperor William III, or His Majesty Oscar the Great!
