Chapter 1849： The final effort

After another half hour of chatting, Xiao Maoqi left with excuses. Now, only the senior German military and Prince Leopold are left in the meeting room. There are other things to talk about with each other!

"His Royal Highness, I feel that in this domestic game, the ultimate winner will not be the Kaiser, nor will it be the parliamentary faction, because all they have obtained are incomplete rights. If it is purely from the result of the war Look, I feel that the Kingdom of Bavaria is the biggest beneficiary. Of course, this is just an objective description, without any malice." Looking at Prince Leopold who was opposite, Crook sighed and said The above words.

Before this meeting, Admiral Howson would naturally tell Admiral Crook of his conversation with Lieutenant General Hall. And now, when General Crook enjoys its rights as a military representative, he must also bear obligations. For example, this time, when Crook explicitly pointed out this point, I am afraid that the opposite prince of Bavaria will be very upset. When it comes to the task of Prince Leopold's level, his dissatisfaction is not just a question of cursing you! Thinking about the stubborn energy of Scheideman and Bavaria before, Crook felt his scalp tingling!

At this time General Crook was really unwilling to discuss when Bavaria and Austro-Hungary decided to make Princess Mary the heir of the emperor, and he was unwilling to consider the grievances between Bavaria and the Kaiser, because it is unclear. Things are also very unpleasant things, especially now that Bavaria is clearly dominant. Looking forward to everything, what General Crook wants to do now is to see how the matter ends, and is ready to use the remaining power of the Prussian military to deter this already rising southern kingdom.

"Go on, finish all you want to say." Prince Leopold made a please gesture.

"In any case, even an ordinary German can feel that the relationship between Bavaria and Vienna is too close. Although there is no shortage of records in history that a family has two crowns, but now, the times are changing. I think this It will leave a deep gap between North and South Germany. No one wants to go back to the past German era, which was an era of scattered sand. Since Crown Prince Ruprecht can help Vienna solve the Hungarians, then He should understand that dispersion and lack of cohesion are the biggest internal problems of the empire. Therefore, I hope the Bavarian royal family can give the empire and our people a real guarantee."

Looking at Prince Leopold, who was expressionless on the opposite side, but his eyes became extremely sharp, Crook frowned and decided to say all the rest. "Simply inheriting the Austrian throne by the eldest son of the crown prince, instead of inheriting the Bavarian throne, and the statement that Bavaria stays in the German system does not make everyone feel at ease. After all, the Bavarian royal family still controls the Bohemia region of Austria. This kind of transnational rule is very difficult to understand."

"So, what we mean is, can the Bavarian royal family give up your ruling rights in Bohemia, Moravia, and Slovakia? We can consider compensation in other ways." Crook made a request on behalf of the military!

Everyone is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Although the Prussian regiment and the Bavarian royal family share the same views on many issues, there is still a gap between the two sides on the issue of fundamental attributes, because the former is Prussia and the latter is Bavaria. It seems that the Kaiser wants to weaken Bavaria and ensure the core position of Prussia. This is true in itself. What is wrong is that the Kaiser did not manage this matter well and instead put himself in! It also affected the situation on the front lines.

And now, the entire Prussia and the imperial government are in a mess. It is obvious that they cannot contain the overpowering of Bavaria. That's good. At this time, the high-level officers of the army can't be gangsters. These people have decisively stepped forward for their kingdom. Taking over the banner in the hands of the Kaiser, continue to complete the unfinished business of the Kaiser... Really think that Crook called Admiral Plitwitz to come over to balance Little Mochi? Isn't that too worthy of the current Kaiser? In fact, another commander of the group army was called to deter Prince Leopold! It is nothing more than telling the other party that we are still very united in the group armies on the western front!

As for how to weaken Bavaria? Not let Princess Mary be the Austrian emperor? That is impossible. From a theoretical standpoint, the election of the crown prince of the Austro-Hungarian Empire has a half-cent relationship with your Prussian army! Want to continue cutting dividends from Bavaria? Look at the Kaiser who overturned the car in front. This lesson learned has not passed long. Therefore, in the end, the Army Corps put forward the proposal to let the Bavarian royal family give up its rule of parts of Austria-Hungary. Of course, cutting three places at once is only the highest goal. Some problems can be bargained and even to avoid irritating the prince, leading to a complete quarrel between the two sides, Admiral Crook does not even Dare to use the words spoken by Admiral Hausen and Lieutenant General Hall before, saying that Bavaria has only rights but no empire and nation, because, this time, they are facing Prince Leopold, the Bavarian army except the crown prince The first person outside!

At least, in the eyes of Crook and others, his request is quite reasonable. After all, if Bohemia and Moravia were the fiefs of the grand duchess before, the prince can take charge, then now, Princess Mary will become The queen, there is no fief, and the sons of the crown prince and princess have become the second heir to the throne, so Ruprecht supposedly has no reason to continue to manage this area. Unless the Austro-Hungarian Empire abandons these areas and allows them to merge into Germany, in this case, Ruprecht can continue to manage these places, it is logical! Of course, it is estimated that the Austro-Hungarian Empire will not agree.

"I thought you would talk to Prince Ruprecht about this in person." Prince Leopold said with a smile.

"To be honest, I dare not." Crook said in his heart. Then I wiped my sweat with a handkerchief. The indoor stove is a little hot, even though it is winter. In fact, Crook and others have thought of the worst case, that is, Bavaria doesn't vomit at all! If you communicate directly with Ruprecht, if you have such a result, it will really be a shame. And if you talk to the prince, there is still some leeway.
