Chapter 1321： Shocking Project One

Slide 1321

"You know, Ruprecht, I have never been so at a loss as I am now. Even when we lost to Prussia and the country was facing a split, I was confident to tide over the difficulties, but only now, I don’t know. Is what I am doing right or wrong, pushing this country to new heights, or sliding into a bottomless abyss? Can you tell me the result?"

The gloomy voice of the emperor of the Austro-Hungarian Empire echoed in the hall. In this room, he and the prince were the only two. "One of the important reasons I have been unable to convince myself is that if Duke Karl becomes the emperor, my empire will at least be more stable. Maybe it will not reach a new peak, but at least it is a result acceptable to all three parties. The Hungarians will Accept, the Kaiser will accept, and your family, Wittelsbach, has already gained the rule of Bohemia and Moravia. You will not oppose it, will you?"

"If I say that Grand Duke Carl has limited abilities, or that he has a relationship with the Entente, you might think that I am clichéd or weak?" the prince said.

"Weak and weak? Why would you use this word? Bavaria is already stronger than an ordinary European medium-sized country in terms of economic and military power (for example, Spain). Would you actually use weak and weak to describe yourself? This is a bit too self-conscious. Are you modest?" Emperor Fritz was taken aback for a moment, feeling that the prince's statement was somewhat inexplicable.

"Yes, it is weak, because when you made this proposal, you sacrificed the interests of Bavaria. We helped the Austro-Hungarian Empire so much. We are connected by blood. At this time, it was just because of a little risk. You chose to lose Bavaria and lose the interests of the Wittelsbach family in exchange for stability, then tell me, what is your premise for doing this? Don’t you think that we are weak and can be manipulated by others?” The prince looked directly at him. The emperor, with a hint of coldness in his calm tone.

"You only considered the turmoil after Princess Mary succeeded to the throne, but did not consider the disaster if Grand Duke Karl becomes the emperor! Believe me, this is definitely more dangerous than the former and easier to collapse an empire!" When the prince said this sentence At the time, there was already a strong threat.

Sometimes, threats are also a very effective means of persuasion. Princess Mary told herself that the Austrian Emperor had agreed in principle with her succession to the throne, and the prince believed this. And this time, based on the conversation with the Austrian Emperor, the prince can clearly feel that Fritz still wants to find a way out, a way back if he can't step through it!

In fact, from the bottom of his heart, the Austrian Emperor still believes that Princess Mary, or the prince behind her, is more capable of governing this country. So he emphasized the meaning of avoiding risks in the conversation just now. What the prince had to do was to let the Austrian Emperor completely break this thought of taking a step back, and if he went forward, he would either succeed or fall to death.... Let Aohuang know that some issues cannot be discussed!

"Ruprecht, I always thought you were a sane person." Ao Huang was slightly taken aback. He was also a little surprised by the prince's toughness.

"You should know that from my birth until now, no one can owe me the debt without repaying it. I can pay for the overall situation, but I have to pay for it. I always thought you knew this!" There is no compromise.

"Well, then tell me, how do you deal with the anger of the Kaiser and the provocation of the Hungarians!" Fritz leaned back slightly to relax himself. Now, it's private time, the so-called majesty is worthless in front of this junior! It might as well make yourself more comfortable!

"Why did the Austro-Hungarian Empire cooperate with Germany? It is nothing more than two points. The first point is naturally the strong military power of Germany, and the second point is the strong national power and industry of the German Empire! Without these two points, then Austria Will the Hungarian Empire still be in awe of the German Emperor?" The prince paused and continued.

"And now? Most of the most terrifying army of the German Emperor was involved in the Western Front, and was caught in endless battles with Britain and France! At least 80% of the force could not move, then we imagine, if Princess Mary Becoming Queen Mary, then Germany might risk the collapse of the Western Front to carry out a real threat of force? This is the end of the game, isn't it?"

"But there are exceptions to everything. If the Kaiser believes that this will renew disputes within the German system, then he may still take action, especially when Wilhelm II and his staff assume that the Austro-Hungarian Empire disagrees. Princess Mary, as long as there is a little pressure outside, they will take action without hesitation. Have you ever considered this possibility?" The Austrian Emperor leaned forward slightly, staring at the prince in front of him. Kind of serious performance.

"Moreover, I always think that you are more sensible after all, and you would not allow this kind of dying to happen, right?" After speaking, the Austrian Emperor seemed to have won a game, accompanied by a meaningful smile. He leaned back on the chair.

"Of course I thought about it. When planning such a shocking plan, how could I not consider the most threatening point." The prince's words were full of ease.

"There are various problems within the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and the Kingdom of Prussia also has For example, the second point I just said, Prussia does have a strong industry and national power, but as the direct ruler of the German Emperor But they didn’t directly control these! These factories, fields, etc. were all in the hands of capitalists and Junker nobles. Although the emperor was noble, his rule depends on these people!"

"Well, you and I can see that if the war is won, Germany and Austria will have a huge cake. Can those people not see it? In fact, they have distributed this cake a long time ago. We already have opinions, so our Prime Minister spends half of his time actually coordinating relations with these people, such as the three-level parliament, such as universal suffrage, such as the rights of the imperial parliament. And you would not think of them. The way of fighting is just a bickering in the parliament, right?" The prince asked with a smile.

The prince’s expression was like saying: "Please, we are all old fried dough sticks. Are you afraid of this kind of bare-mouthed struggle? There is no real threat. You will choose to compromise? We know this. The German knows that those People are equally clear!"

"So, you plan to join forces with these people?! How do I feel that you are a little bit cocooned?" Ao Huang's expression was somewhat subtle.
