Chapter 1708 Berlin conspiracy (1)
"Regardless of the outcome, an invisible war has broken out in the German Empire, but what makes me uneasy is that I can't even tell who is our friend and who is our enemy. The original allies have been pushed to The position of the enemy, and what will happen to the previous enemy, is it a new friend or still an enemy? I don’t know. However, the emperor’s order cannot be disobeyed. He personally ignited the fuse to detonate everything.” In Holvig In the Prime Minister's diary, he wrote so worried. He suggested that the Kaiser consider it carefully, and the Kaiser seemed to have listened to his opinions and decided to proceed slowly, but God knows, will everything proceed as he thought!
However, at this moment, in the villa of the right-wing leader of the Social Democratic Party, Albert, a group of people were celebrating their phased victory. If Prime Minister Holvig was present, he would find that the entire East The main members of the right and centrists of the Prussian Social Democratic Party are here!
In the middle of the venue was a long table, and the right-wing leader of the Social Democratic Party, Albert, sat in the middle of the main seat. On the left is Wells, the head of the Social Democratic Party in Berlin. On the right is another tycoon of the right wing of the Social Democratic Party, Landsberg, who is now very close to people in industry and finance. The second on the left is a person that everyone is not familiar with, but watching Albert's respectful attitude towards him, although the others present have opinions, they did not show it.
And this person is Mr. Buhler, Albert’s "action adviser". He has been on various fronts in Germany and has rich combat experience. It can be said that the combination of theory and practice has just made up for the rumors within the Social Democratic Party, but Can fight an uncomfortable situation!
The second on the right is Nosk, the right-wing leader of the Social Democratic Party in the Kiel area. He mainly does naval work. The German High Seas Fleet is an important force that can affect the country. They have an independent military. System, and the members are mainly civilians. A considerable part of the fleet commanders, including Scheer and Hipper, are non-aristocratic elements. Therefore, in the view of the Social Democratic Party, this is an object that can be fought for.
There would have been Scheideman's position, but it is a pity that the one who was the first to pick things up is now in a prison in Berlin. Albert repeatedly requested parole. But none of them passed and we can only give up.
"Just this morning, the information provided by our insiders said that the Kaiser has agreed to the proposal put forward by the Independent Social Democratic Party, and a new kingdom is about to emerge. The conflict between the two kingdoms will also be ignited. The Kaiser will forever lose the support from Bavaria, and Bavaria will also lose the ability to influence the central government! This is a great victory and laid a solid foundation for the success of our cause!" Albert’s opening was full of passion and joy!
After a round of applause, Wells, the head of the right-wing Social Democratic Party in Berlin, also began to introduce the situation here: "Although we cannot guarantee that all newly formed troops staying in the Berlin region will obey our orders, at least 40% of them will be The officers and personnel of the United States are willing to stand on our side, and the remaining 30% or so will remain neutral. Therefore, we have an absolute advantage in this German political center!"
"However, those high-ranking officers are all Junker nobles, and they are not that easy to persuade." The operations consultant Mr. Buhler said somewhat unexpectedly.
"Haha, Junker noble? Even in Germany's top aristocracy, the Black Hawk Knights, we still have supporters. After all, people like Xiao Maoqi who do not enter, and who are loyal to the decadent monarchy are rare. Among them thinks of it. Some people have become one with us. They may still have some nostalgia for the monarchy, but at least they will not raise the butcher knife to us. And what I have to say is that the tragic war has brought us a big advantage, those nobles The officers suffered heavy casualties. Their control over the army has dropped drastically, and many people have cooperated with us with the idea of wanting to be superior. In addition, we have enough money to buy some people." Landsberg said with a smile. At the same time, he showed a look of scrutiny to the "action consultant" sitting opposite.
"How is the Navy situation used? Wells, this is our top priority." Albert did not pay attention to the careful thinking of the people below, but said to Wells.
"The situation is not very good. I have contacted Admirals Scheer and Hipper. They are very satisfied with the current situation. The middle and lower-level naval officers and soldiers also have this idea. They seem to be preparing something. They are all very busy. They are very indifferent to politics, but they are more sensitive to the relationship between Prussia and Bavaria." Wells said.
"Mr. Buller, the Navy's attitude is the same as you expected, so tell me your opinion." Albert frowned slightly after listening.
"Unexpected, reasonable." Buhler smiled and said: "Perhaps, everyone here feels that the navy is mainly from the civilian class, so you should agree with the theories and practices of the Social Democratic Party. I don't deny this, but I What I want to say is that as a soldier, there are two most critical points. The first is faith and victory, and the second is the vital interests of officers and soldiers."
"As for the first point, I can understand to all of you who are here even just reading the newspaper That is, since the war started, the navy has rarely suffered setbacks, and they have been thinking about how to treat the opposite Royal Navy. If you kill it, how can you mix these things? Even if the class attributes of the middle and lower classes are close to yours, a general who can win the battle and satisfy the interests of his subordinates does not have to worry about betrayal!"
“As for the second point, it’s easier to understand. The treatment of naval officers and soldiers is higher than that of the army, and they can also receive additional rations from Bavaria. In addition, the war at sea is not terrible, and they are not afraid of war. Some yearning. As for the upward channel you gave? The upward channel within the navy is inherently fair, and the relationship between officers and soldiers is relatively stable. Therefore, the stability of the navy is far more stable than that of the army." Buller talked freely.
Historically, it was the sailors of Kiel Harbor who ignited the German revolutionary beacon, but it was the most gentle on this plane. After all, on this plane, no one asked the High Seas Fleet to launch a battle with no chance of winning. The described offensive did not endure the pain caused by the shortage of supplies. If we only look at dietary standards and wages, the current level of treatment in the German Navy is much higher than before the war. Therefore, they will naturally not rebel.
