Chapter 1717： Grand Duke and Little Mao Qisan

Slide 1717

"Could it be that we watched the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Kingdom of Bavaria continue to approach, even threatening the results of the Austro-Prussian War?" Grand Duke Baden asked rhetorically.

"It is impossible for Bavaria to separate from Prussia. If Bavaria makes a move to split the country, then the German military is duty-bound. However, if there is no definite evidence, or if the other party has not taken action, then sorry, your Excellency, the German military Will not take an offensive." Little Moqi is tantamount to giving the Baden Bus a bottom. That is, you can play politics, you can also weaken Bavaria through parliament or other means, but don't always think about relying on the German military to force your opponent to yield, because this threat is too great and accidents will happen....

"Your Excellency, I hope you can seriously consider the balance between the General Staff and the two kingdoms. If we can ease the contradiction with Bavaria, then as long as Ruprecht successfully commands the troops to enter the Western Front, then the whole battle will The overall situation is settled. We can mobilize troops on the Western Front to the Eastern Front, and then gain more territory. We can have an overwhelming advantage over Bavaria, but now it’s not the right choice to force our opponents too much. What's more, we have done recently. These things have made the Polish independence forces very active, which is very bad for the empire." Little Mochi said at last.

"But what use do you tell me about these words?" Grand Duke Baden asked.

"If I'm not mistaken, you will serve as the special envoy of the German Emperor to the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Therefore, I hope you can ease the relationship between the two parties and not overly intensify the contradictions. At the same time, you can persuade your Majesty." Xiao Maoqi sincerely Said.

"Hehe, General, don't you think that as a soldier, your behavior has been a bit arrogant?" Grand Duke Baden did not say yes or no, but took the topic in another direction. He wanted to know, what is the purpose of Xiao Maoqi doing this?

"Have you overstepped?" Xiao Maoqi smiled bitterly. "In this palace, our every move will not hide from your majesty's eyes and ears. You are your majesty’s in-laws and the prince of the empire. This is nothing to you. Isn’t it for me? ."

"I just do something that should be done. Even if it is arrogant, even if I lose my current position and power, but I do not regret it. I believe that if this problem can be solved, let Crown Prince Ruprecht command the Western Front. The battle will be better than me." Xiao Maoqi smiled slightly, with a relief on his face.

Grand Duke Baden suddenly felt that this topic could not continue. Prince Baden did not doubt the loyalty of Little Mochi. The direct result of this incident is very clear. Xiao Moqi met with the Grand Duke of the Empire in a public contract and discussed a very sensitive issue. With the German emperor's belly, he will definitely hold a grudge. It is entirely possible to find a reason to replace Xiao Maoqi.

In history, didn't Mochi, Falkingham, and Tirpitz all be taken directly by the Kaiser? Therefore, whether it is from ability or procedure, the Kaiser wants to win a chief of staff. As Xiao Moqi said, the Kaiser would not do anything to himself. Let alone the relationship between them, since the establishment of the German Empire, the Kaiser has never interfered with the leadership of any country! Because doing so is illegal!

Now the Grand Duke of Baden has some admiration for Little Mochi. Little Mochi used his political life to persuade himself to ease the contradiction between the two countries. At the same time, he also used his political life to give the Kaiser an explanation. The Kaiser’s authority must be upheld if the policy occurs. Change, then the emperor can also find someone who is holding the pot, this person is Xiao Maoqi. The portion is right, and no one can say anything. Xiao Maoqi admittedly opposed the Kaiser’s opinion, but he also saved the Kaiser’s face and maintained his dignity by using his offensives. This matter can also be passed.

In fact, if Xiao Maoqi thinks about it for himself, is there anything wrong with meeting him in a private occasion, even if the Kaiser knows it? There is no handle. And he wouldn't speak ill of Mooqi to the Kaiser. He could also deny the meeting between the two. However, this time, in public, Little Mochi gave the Kaiser the handle. As a general, he finally made Grand Duke Baden sigh with such a result. In fact, the starting point and approach of Xiao Moqi were all for the German Empire, but the result was that the Empire punished this loyal general. Thinking of this, Grand Duke Baden felt a little uncomfortable.

He is a little bit emotional now. As the top aristocrat of the empire, he has a very good understanding of the various forces within the empire. Regardless of how friendly everyone is, how many people are truly loyal to the royal family? Bavaria is an alien, almost monolithic from top to bottom, but in Prussia, I am afraid that quite a few Junker nobles have been defeated by capitalists' sugar-coated shells, right? How many people would be chilled by a situation like Xiao Maoqi? However, without the support of these people, is the Kaiser's crown really stable?

"I will try my best for the German Empire. Take care." Grand Duke Baden said. Then he got up and left the house. At the moment when he closed the door, he saw a lonely little Maoqi. In the hour just now, the German chief of staff seemed to have grown a lot older in an instant, like a dying old man. Maybe, he will go back tonight to prepare for his resignation. When the people from the Kaiser come to interrogate him, he will submit his resignation directly, right?

"Today you and Xiao Maoqi met?" Sure enough, after meeting the Kaiser, Wilhelm II's first sentence was this question.

"Yes." Grand Duke Baden was very upset, and the answer was very simple.

"What did you say?" William II stared at the archduke and said.

"Little Moqi hopes that the relationship between the two countries can be eased. We didn't say anything big, and Xiao Moqi has considered the consequences and is willing to bear it. You don't need to hold on to it." Grand Duke Baden's answer is already a bit thorny! The Kaiser also realized that there was something wrong with the atmosphere... It was naturally impossible for the emperor to take the fifth largest family in the empire, his own cousin, for this trivial matter, so he decided not to talk about it.

"Well, let's not talk about him." The Kaiser closed his eyes and calmed his emotions. "We need to talk to Fritz about Poland. We need to let him know that on the Polish issue, siding with Bavaria will lead to very serious consequences. I would like to know if it has not been settled in Hungary. Where did the emperor's confidence and energy entangle with the German Empire on this issue!"
