Chapter 1867： Military and Political One

When Mozzi came to the barracks of Frederick the Great again, the former chief of the German General Staff was very complicated in his heart. In his hand he held the Kaiser’s order to ask the German military to stand on his side in internal affairs. , But anyone knows that this so-called order is better than a request to some extent! Because the current emperor can no longer control the officer group, on the contrary, they have to get their support!

"Hey, I have to get to this point in the end." Xiao Maoqi sighed. He felt that the army was getting farther and farther away from his expectations, and that the army had become more and more involved in politics. This was completely contrary to the ideas of his uncle Mao Qi!

The old Maoqi, known as the "silent man," is extremely opposed to the military's participation in politics. He believes that the military's political creed is "order." The obedience to the leader must precede his own initiative and creativity. In fact, the old Mao Qi did the same and rarely directly interfered in politics.

As for the later Chief of General Staff of Germany, they diverged on this issue. For example, Wadsey, who succeeded the old Moch, was a political general who liked and was good at political activities and was destroying Bismarck’s The incident played an important role. It was dubbed "fox" by the German court at that time. After Wadsey, Earl Schlieffen believed that the army should not interfere in politics. When he was the chief of staff, the political influence of the army began to shrink.

It can be said that in the history of the Second German Reich, on the issue of whether soldiers were involved in politics, because of the different attitudes of the previous chiefs of staff, they always wavered between staying away from politics and interfering in politics. When Xiao Moqi succeeded as Chief of Staff, the political influence of the German army became the lowest in history, because Xiao Maoqi was a loyal admirer of his uncle!

But now, what he needs to do is contrary to his original intention. He wants to take the order of the emperor to ask the army to interfere in government affairs and stand by the emperor. And the exchange of benefits is definitely indispensable.

"Your Majesty, the army already has considerable independence. If you indulge them, once they taste the taste of political rights, they will not give up! This is a very bad thing for the empire and you. The army is the monarch’s sword, we are responsible for considering it, and they are responsible for executing it. And if one day, when this sword has its own mind, will he still obey the command of the master.” Before leaving, Xiao Maoqi Say so.

"It's not drinking poison to quench thirst, but without the support of the military, it would be impossible for me to take over a complete Prussia again. In comparison, I think that it is better to hold power with the military than with the Social Democrats. Cooperation should be better.” This is how the Kaiser replied to Xiao Maoqi. After the emperor gave the final order, little Moqi, who was accustomed to obedience, didn’t say anything anymore. He no longer considered whether the emperor’s opinion was correct, just like his uncle, he regarded following the emperor’s order as his own. First priority!

"His Majesty and the Parliament have disagreements on the supreme power of the central government. The Parliament demands that the Prime Minister of the Empire must be accountable to the Parliament. His Majesty the Kaiser requires the right to dissolve the Parliament. His Majesty believes that the supreme decision-making power should not be controlled by those erratic. In the hands of the political party, your Majesty needs the support of the military.” After briefly introducing the whole thing, Little Moqi finally said.

"It is not good to delegate the highest decision-making power to the parliament, because the parliament itself is the legislature. If they also have administrative functions at the same time, the rights within the empire may be out of balance. But at the same time, we do not think that the empire has all the rights. It's a good thing to concentrate on one person." Admiral Crook, who was sitting in the main seat, said after listening to Mooqi's statement.

"His Majesty the Kaiser, to a certain extent, I feel that I have some psychological problems." Admiral Crook's calm words contained feelings of resentment: "Your Excellency Little Mochi, do you remember what happened on the Hohenzollern in 1894? That thing on the yacht?"

"A group of highly respected old German generals sat in a row with frowning faces. In front of foreign diplomats, William II took a wooden stick and knocked them on the knees one by one, doing knee-jerk reflex experiments! Those who contributed to the empire The generals were forced to pretend to be very happy. While laughing, they squeezed their fists in their pockets and cursed this tyrant in their hearts! I will never forget that scene!” (This is from the 16th of the Research on War History Period. The matter has a source, but Crook may not be present at the time.)

"Your Majesty is sometimes extreme. I apologize to you on his behalf." Facing this incident, Xiao Maoqi had nothing to say. In fact, after this incident, Xiao Maoqi was also working hard to finish the Kaiser. However, this matter is still too much, so that up to now, some people can not let go of ~ www.novelhall.com ~ You can say it is a private enmity, but at the same time, William II's personal problems are indeed serious.

In fact, Wilhelm II not only fought the old general, but even the heir of the Grand Duchy, the Duke of Saxony-Coburg. Gotha was also beaten by the Kaiser when he was young. After he became an adult, William II even rode on On the duke's belly. What is even more incomprehensible is that this buddy also hit the country and hit the world, and the emperor's marshal's scepter fell on the back of the Russian Grand Duke Vladimir!

It can be said that except for a handful of people closest to the Kaiser, or the real top nobles, the Kaiser’s fists and humiliation will fall on anyone. When there is oppression, there is resistance. There are always real warriors who dare to face the bleak life and face the fist of the Kaiser!

In 1896, the Minister of the Army of Prussia, von Schlendorf, broke out in public with the Kaiser, and privately claimed that "Your Majesty does not look normal." The worst time in history was 1897. People who were insulted by the Kaiser were also very dangerous for the Kaiser himself!

In February 1897, William gave a notorious speech in which he described Bismarck and Old Mochi as "running dogs and dwarfs". This matter caused public outrage! Not only Prussia, the monarchs, princes and even members of parliament of other states began to doubt whether the Kaiser should really be sent to a mental hospital! To be honest, it is really enough for those who are in opposition to these positions to come to such a similar conclusion.
