Chapter 1262： Game One

Chapter 1262 Game 1

"If this is the case, Xiao Moqi, look at our reserve team on the western front and the troops resting in the rear, and draw up a table." The Kaiser said to Xiao Maoqi.

"Holwig, please contact the Bavarian side and let Prince Ruprecht prepare. We need to talk about something." The Kaiser turned and said to his prime minister.

"It seems that I still need to talk to Ruprecht about some issues." The Kaiser said in his heart. He enjoys this feeling a bit now. If all military affairs can be discussed by people of different forces, what use is there for an emperor? The feeling of centering and arbitrating everything is really great! At present, the Prussian Junker nobles control the western front, and the troops dominated by the Bavarian army control the eastern front. This arrangement has reached a military balance, and will not make one of them bigger or let themselves. Was overhead.

Long before Ruprecht came, the Kaiser had already considered the issues that needed to be discussed during the meeting. It was not impossible for the Kaiser to temporarily transfer some troops from the Western Front to the Balkans while ensuring that the strategy on the Eastern Front remained unchanged. In fact, the pressure is not great. After all, in history, during the Dardanelles battle, Mackensen took the German army to get Serbia. And on this plane, the situation in Germany is better, even to put it bluntly. If the Turks can’t handle it, it’s all right to send 15 divisions in one go.

Well, then, why did the Kaiser make such a big battle when he clearly has an answer to this question? The reason is simple. The Kaiser needs to let Prince Ruprecht understand that there are many people in the Prussian General Staff who cannot understand you. Therefore, you must rely on the Kaiser, rely on the royal family, this is also a kind of beating in disguise. No one will remember your benefits for the icing on the cake, but giving charcoal in the snow is different!

Look, when everyone asked the Bavarian Legion to bleed, it was my brother who helped you resist the pressure and let your plan be completed. You have to know the gratitude! You must surround yourself with the group with the Kaiser as the core leader, otherwise, be careful of the Prussian Junker nobles who will settle accounts for you in the future. Well, that's what it means!

Of course, another purpose is to touch the family of the Bavarian Army... How strong is the prince's legion? It is estimated that people including Xiao Maoqi can only answer very strongly. But there is absolutely no specific and convincing information available, although the prince’s report on the organization and equipment of the Bavarian Army is still in line with the facts. Military production in Bavaria is also controllable.

However, the situation of the prince’s other regiment, the Bohemia-Moravian regiment, is unknown to the Emperor. This regiment is not even clear to the General Staff of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, because the prince’s wife Her Royal Highness Princess Mary is the Grand Duke of Bohemia and Moravia. The army belongs to her in name. Germany certainly cannot obtain relevant information directly. As for the Austro-Hungarian Empire?

how to say? The Kaiser could feel the chaos in the current Vienna court. It has been a year since Grand Duke Ferdinand was assassinated, and now Fritz still has not determined his successor, and several distant princes are all eyeing. At this time, the identity of Princess Mary, the Grand Duke of Bohemia and Moravia, and the Asian-Pacific concubine of Bavaria are naturally the key to winning in all aspects, so no one will delve into the former's unwillingness to explain things clearly!

The Kaiser felt a little uncomfortable with this incomprehensible situation. Or to be clear, the Kaiser would be even more uncomfortable if he knew that these powers were held by the prince instead of being used out. So the Kaiser arranged all this. And as usual, the arrangement of things has no effect on Ruprecht, who is hard enough.

"In other words, in March, the landing battle in the Gulf of Riga will begin. At the same time, the Bavarian and Austro-Hungarian regiments deployed on the north and south sides of the battle line will go into battle. Our troops in the winter will work hard to form two blockades. In order to prevent the retreat of the Russian army, is that right?" At the beginning of the conversation between the two, the Kaiser listened to the prince's report on the Poland pocket battle again.

"This is the case. The entire campaign will last from one month to one and a half months. During this time, we will encircle and annihilate nearly one million Russian troops. We must mobilize at least 300,000 troops for long-range interspersed operations. The materials and logistics they need will be an astronomical figure, but for the upcoming victory, all of them are worth it." The prince said.

"If this battle goes well, then after encircling and annihilating the Russian Polish Front, the Eastern Front will enter a long rest period, right? Considering the traffic situation in Poland, if the troops want to continue to advance, then You need to set up military depots, repair railways and roads in newly occupied areas. This time may be longer, and because of the leveling of the front, you will accumulate a large amount of mobile forces. If these forces are left unused, it is a kind of Waste, isn't it?" the Kaiser asked rhetorically.

"Before and during the Polish Pocket CampaignThe Bavarian Army will not be involved in the Turkish war. But if the battle can be successfully completed, then my Army can be stationed in the Balkans. The strength of the 6 divisions.” The prince naturally knew the opinion of the Kaiser. He was not unwilling to take responsibility. It was a matter of priority. After the Kaiser indicated that the deployment could be postponed, then according to the principle of negotiation, the prince Appropriate concessions are also necessary. The strength of the six divisions is nearly 100,000. Whether it is the pure-blooded Bavarian Army or the Bohemian Army, it is a powerful force.

"However, these forces are not enough to solve the problems in the Balkans." The Kaiser shook his head and said. "Although the Serbs are poorly equipped, they can fight very well. They are completely different from the Romanians you face. Now you have to add a Greek. And a large number of British and French forces. By the way, there are also Japanese! This war is over. Later, I will definitely find a chance to tidy up those dwarfs in the Far East."

The power provided by Japan in this war has been sent to the fourth place of the Allied Powers, and the existence of hundreds of thousands of Japanese army and the Japanese fleet in the Mediterranean has brought some trouble to Germany. This was enough to disgust the Emperor, and the fact that a backward country in the Far East actually intervened in Europe made the Emperor feel that Japan was unforgivable.
