Chapter 1500： Undercurrent surging three

Chapter 1500 Undercurrent surging (3)

Compared to the history, General Erich von Falkingham was very bad. This buddy was the Prussian Minister of War and once served as the Chief of Staff. He initiated the famous battle of Verdun in history. After the final defeat, he was drawn to the Eastern Front as the commander of the group army. Although the evening scenes are not good, they have been beautiful.

But on this plane, General Erich von Falkingham was not so happy. Let alone the first pinnacle of his life-the Prussian Minister of War did not become. After the war, he did not become the chief of the general staff, because with the help and coordination of Prince Ruprecht, Xiao Moqi was very stable in the position of chief of the general staff. So naturally nothing will happen to him.

What's more sad is that this buddy had a bad relationship with the Bavarian royal family, but this time, he was sent to the Eastern Front again, and Fakingham felt that this was the case in his life. After all, the highest commander on the Eastern Front was Prince Ruprecht, and the one who directly commanded the Germans in East Prussia was Mackensen. Although Falkingham would be treated as the commander of the group army when he arrived on the Eastern Front, most of them were still in Malaysia. Work under the leadership of Kenson.

"Here, I suddenly felt like fighting on the Western Front. Soldiers on both sides were fighting frantically in pieces of rubble, artillery roared, and we had to pay a heavy price every step of the way. We used a few troops. To attack the outlying areas of the capital of a European power, but the most powerful army on the Eastern Front carried out an armed demonstration in Ukraine thousands of miles away. This is simply incomprehensible." Outside Tallinn, I scanned the distance. The city of Tallinn was still in fierce battle. After putting down the telescope in his hand, Admiral Falkingham said to Mackensen next to him.

"War comes at a price. It is impossible for others to automatically deliver what you want." Mackensen said with a slight frown.

"I mean, it would be better if the Bavarian Army came to attack the fortress. They have more heavy weapons and more troops. Now, they have thrown this hard bone to us. They went to Ukraine. Enclosure. Carve up the territory that originally belonged to us with Austria-Hungary." Falkingham felt that Mackensen would be wrong, so he said more bluntly.

"I did not understand it wrong. I know what you are trying to say." Mackensen naturally knew what Falkingham meant, and what he said just now was not wrong, but Falkingham understood in the wrong direction: "German Army Some people in the senior management have very good ideas. They always think of letting others do things well and then come up to share the fruits of victory. For example, let the Bavarian Army clean up the Russian troops outside St. Petersburg, and then let the Prussian Army Conquer this city. I understand this idea, but it is not realistic! No one will give each other wedding clothes for nothing. Every inch of land under our feet must be obtained with our own saber!"

"However, the elite of the Prussian Army are concentrated on the Western Front, and we have undertaken most of the pressure of the Allied forces, so we should get most of the proceeds of this battle! They are more like a group of speculators!" said Fakingham.

"However, Bavaria has never intended to occupy most of the benefits. Judging from the current occupied areas controlled by Prussia and Bavaria, we are not at a disadvantage. You can't let Bavaria take down the entire eastern front, but we take all the benefits?" Mackenson asked rhetorically.

"If I can, I don't mind doing this. The empire can only have one voice. The weakening of Bavaria is good news for the smooth flow of German decree, and it is also very important for consolidating Prussia's position in the empire." Farkingham did not hesitate. Said.

"So, your political inclination is more like a politician than a politician. The former is only about how to get the biggest piece of cake under the current situation. The latter is about how to make this cake bigger. In order to make ourselves more divided, the weakening of Bavaria is indeed meaningful for the consolidation of Prussian rights, but have you ever thought about it, if Bavaria is the same as Saxony and Württemberg, can we stand here today and watch? Tallinn made some talk?" Mackenson asked rhetorically.

Mackensen explained why so far, most of the top empires, including the Kaiser, the Prime Minister, and the Chief of Staff Moch, have acquiesced in the development and growth of Bavaria, because the growth of the latter is also the growth of Germany. The current Bavaria The legions and the Bohemia legions account for at least about 30% of the total German legions in terms of combat effectiveness! It is also because of the strength of Bavaria that the two-line predicament faced by Germany has been greatly eased. If Bavaria were to weaken, then today's strategic advantage would never exist! And if the war fails, everyone will be finished together!

"From the current point of view, the cooperation between our two sides is very good. The Bavarian Army has provided us with their extra heavy equipment and some heavy artillery units. I don't want some words from my army that affect the cooperation between the two sides, so please be careful. . "Mackensen has just stopped at Farkingham. He will not take the initiative to report the unfair remarks made by his subordinates, but he will never let it go.

So the so-called words are not speculative. In the end, General Farkingham was arranged by Mackensen to Königsberg to be responsible for the logistics supply of the Prussian Army on the eastern front and the supplement of the army. It's half idle. And because of this arrangement, Philips Shedman got the opportunity to contact Fakingham!

As an important figure in the parliament, it is naturally impossible for Schedmann to go to Falkingham at the beginning and say, Bavaria is not pleasing to your eyes, I think they are not pleasing to your eyes, so let's work together to suppress it, it is too LOW! Scheidemann first made some East Prussian groups through his own relationship, such as the East Prussian Lutheran Church and the German Colonial Association. The Protestant tendency of the former made them inherently hostile to the Catholic countries of southern Germany, and even A similar view is held on the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Claim that their existence directly threatened the interests of Protestants.

Needless to say the latter, Prussia has just occupied some areas, and some colonists hopefully want to obtain land and resources. As one of the heads of military management in the occupied territories, their contact with Falkinghan has become a matter of course. And when these groups have figured out Fakingham's ideas and routines, it's time for Shedman to take action in person!
