Chapter 1269： Hidden dangers

Slide 1269

By the way, there is another faction that must be mentioned, that is, the big capitalists and bankers in Germany! These guys are in a very delicate position. First of all, they will not stand directly at the front desk, but no one can ignore their influence! They have money, people, and maybe a lot of armaments. The prince’s espionage agency investigated the production of certain factories and found that they sometimes periodically have the problem of excessive defective products. At the same time, the scrap rate of some items returned to the factory for repair has also been abnormal. Although these items account for the overall The proportion is small, but considering Germany’s huge arms production, that would be a very terrifying number. Coupled with the large amount of materials accumulated in those factory warehouses. Well, very good and terrible! They don't even need to send these things out, as long as they "tell" certain people with ulterior motives, they will soon be able to organize an army that looks like something on the surface!

Although they sit behind the scenes, their purpose is also very clear. It is naturally best to establish a bourgeois government. The attitude towards the emperor is currently unclear. But the prince can be sure that they will definitely attack Bavaria! After all, the strength of the latter directly affects their profits and income. There is no opportunity or ability in peacetime, and if there is a major change, it is hard to say that they will not push behind!

They don't want the Social Democrats to stand in the foreground. Even if the prince wins, if there is no conclusive evidence, it would be difficult to move them. So the prince really supports a small fight to some extent. By the way, get rid of some obtrusive people!

This is not because these capitalists and princes are stealing money. Of course, this is the most important issue in the eyes of the other party, but from the perspective of the prince, the fundamental reason why the prince must have had a fight with the other party is that these guys are too profiteering. , For his own interests more important than national interests, so good, as the future king, Ruprecht will naturally clean up them, not that the British and American capitalists are so patriotic, but because the German capitalists do That's too much! In the 2nd World War, Germany's production efficiency has been slow to improve, and they have a contribution to it! To some extent, it is not too much to be regarded as the enemy's internal response!

The prince knew very well that no matter how he operated or the result, after the war, the German regime would not be the same as before the war. The weakening of the emperor’s power is necessary. This is not only the idea of ​​capitalists and social democratic parties, but also Ruprecht's thoughts!

But at the same time, the relatively independent rights of the states within Germany and the status of the Bundestag must never be weakened! Of course, it’s clearer to say that Bavaria’s independence and basic political status cannot be weakened. In fact, apart from Bavaria, all the major duchy are already the younger brothers. It is very submissive. Saxony and Württemberg are better. But military power has also been greatly weakened.

Some people may say that doing so is tantamount to splitting Germany, which will make all parties unhappy. In fact, the prince has no choice. If he comes from the Prussian royal family, then all the problems will be gone. However, the prince is now the Crown Prince of Bavaria, and his **** decides his head. And to be honest, even if Germany is in World War II, it is definitely not a single one, and even the mobilization and unity are not as good as World War 1 in the German era. This is not to say that with a unified bourgeois government, the country is really cohesive...

Mustache's ability to control big capitalists is not even as good as the Kaiser. And those high-ranking Nazi officials' recognition and dedication to the country is definitely not as good as the Junker nobles in World War I. You can say that the Junker nobles finally abandoned the Kaiser, but it cannot be said that this class has not done its best! They do have all kinds of problems, but they also donated 100,000 blood for this war, and thousands of families died out. Of course, this is also one of the fundamental reasons for the decline of the German aristocracy as a whole.

The German Empire is originally a country lacking national identity and chaotic beliefs. It takes time to form a cohesive country, coordination from all sides, and some bad things need to be eliminated to determine whether a group and power meet the requirements of a strong Germany. It is not because he is in conflict with other forces, but whether what he is doing is conducive to Germany's progress.

At least in terms of productivity development, efficiency, and Germany's foreign expansion, the prince believes that he is doing much better than those capitalists and some Junker nobles.

In the future as a whole, the prince’s vision for the Federal Parliament is like this. In the future, the Federal Parliament should still override the Imperial Parliament and have the ultimate veto power. This is what the prince has always insisted on. Because the Imperial Council is not the battlefield of the kings. There are the sites of major political parties. This is also the last line of defense for maintaining one's own interests on the German political level. If the Federal Parliament is deprived and the latter is weakened, then the prince and the kingdom of Bavaria behind him will have no legal and political guarantees!

At the same time, the prince also needs to pursue the ability to veto disadvantages to him in the Federal Parliament! Previously, the German Bundestag had 58 seats. Although the Prussian family has only 17 seats, according to the principle of absolute majority in the Federal Parliament , three-quarters of the votes are required to pass. Therefore, although Prussia is theoretically unable to pass what he wants to pass, However, it can completely prevent the passage of any resolution that is unfavorable to itself, and the Kingdom of Bavaria has only 6 seats. And it is foreseeable that in the future, the number of votes and seats in the Federal Assembly will definitely change!

The reason is simple, because the population base controlled by countries has changed! And some new grand duchy or duchy, or free cities will definitely be added in the future. No way, even in history, the Kaiser did not intend to incorporate all the acquired land into Prussia, because the Treaty of Bristol got too much to eat! Historically, Germany planned to let a German nobleman go to Lithuania to be king... It was only because of Germany's defeat that it did not succeed.

If the Federal Parliament is redefined after the war, then Bavaria’s votes should be increased, because Bavaria’s population has risen after all. The Kingdom of Bavaria, which has a population of only 8 million in history, now has more than 13 million, and it must take into account the upcoming Poland. Regions, as well as Germans with dual certifications of Bavaria and Bohemia, the population will be larger. So if there are still 6 votes, it is obviously inappropriate.
