Chapter 1873: Articles of both parties

"It seems that our opinions have diverged again, but at least, we have reached an agreement on some issues." Grand Duke Baden said.

"Today we have taken a step forward. We all need to go back and think about the following things. How about we adjourn today?" Barthes asked.

"Very well, we adjourn the meeting. I will let my person inform you of the specific meeting time." Grand Duke Baden nodded. After confirming the other party's attitude, Grand Duke Baden didn't want to stay in the meeting room anymore. As a monarch, he really didn't want to stay with the parliamentarians. What's more, he has more important things to do.

Now the situation is very clear. Whether it is the Kaiser or the parliament, they want to get enough benefits in the subsequent negotiations, so they must first obtain the support of the Kingdom of Bavaria. Because the officer corps is already listed as the target of defeat, and the navy is neutral, and Ruprecht has a great influence on the navy, to persuade Ruprecht is to persuade the navy!

Both sides believe that they are capable of persuading Bavaria to stand on their side. The Grand Duke of Baden has such confidence more because of the aristocratic status of the two sides and the fairly good intersection. Class attributes and personal emotions determined Ruprecht's relationship with the Kaiser to be closer. After all, although Wilhelm II has done too much recently, they have been cooperating with each other for 20 years! After giving up the unrealistic fantasy, the two parties can still sit down and talk about things slowly.

As for the parliamentary faction? How can I say that, historically speaking, the relationship between Ruprecht and the parliamentarians has never been harmonious. For this party, whether it is the memory of the prince’s own past life or the experience of this life, he is very much towards the Social Democratic Party. Don't catch a cold. And from time to time the two sides will be hostile. So, in terms of perception, the situation of the parliamentary faction is very bad.

However, this time, the parliament must win the support of Bavaria, because it is already obvious that the two sides will divide the 13 provinces under Prussia, and Bavaria in the south may allow one of them to gain or lose one more province. ! What is the concept of a province? Probably equivalent to a state! Therefore, at this time, the parliamentary faction must also obtain the support of Bavaria, at least to let Bavaria not be too inclined to the Kaiser.

And soon, the Kaiser and the parliament sent a signal requesting contact. Envoys from both sides came to Vienna at the same time. And this also means that the political situation in Germany has also entered the most critical moment, and this annual political drama is about to end! However, the most important thing is when it ends.

"His Royal Highness, this is a gift list sent to us by the representative of the Kaiser and the representative of the parliament." Earl Schelling said to the prince with a smile, and then delivered two documents. Since it is a request for help, it must show sincerity, and this sincerity is the benefit and benefit.

The Kaiser stated that Bavaria can freely allocate the new territory currently under the control of the Bavarian Army and the Bohemia Army, whether it is under its own control or handed over to other states, and expressed its willingness to do so in Poland and Belarus-controlled areas. Make some transfers. All these transfers will be confirmed through public statements and will be recognized by the Kaiser. At the same time, the Kaiser also stated that in the future, Bavaria could also have a share of overseas colonies. For example, once the Belgian Congo is acquired, Bavaria can delineate some resources such as diamond, copper and tungsten.

Looking at the things in front, the prince didn't care very much, because now in the new territory, he can definitely get his own. No one can divide Bavaria's interests when Bavaria does not allow it. As for the colony to get a share? This Ruprecht didn't care too much, after all, Prussia after the war would definitely not be able to eat it, and Bavaria would always get some. Moreover, after the rapid increase in area, Bavaria could not take care of the development of new European territories, and did not have much thoughts about African territories in a short time.

But the prince is very concerned about the next advantage! Because in this document, the Kaiser stated that if Bavaria is willing to support the Kaiser, then the Kaiser allows Bavaria to have a veto in the Federal Parliament! This makes Ruprecht feel a little interesting, veto! This is only available in Prussia, and now the Kaiser has agreed to let Bavaria have this veto power! It is impossible to say that the prince does not want it!

Then, the rest of the document also introduced the use of this veto power. This veto power does not mean that Bavaria has a quarter of the votes to veto the Federal Parliament. Rather, it is a rule outside the system, which has nothing to do with the number of votes you have. But if you want the Federal Parliament to pass its own resolution, then you can only rely on votes.

If you make it clearer, you can understand it like this If everything remains the same, a total of 58 votes, 50 of which agree, but Bavaria disagrees, then this resolution can be rejected. But if Bavaria wants to pass a certain resolution to the Bundestag, it still has to collect 42 votes or more.

"You seem to be a little moved?" Earl Schelling looked at the prince and said.

"Yes, the right to veto everything is almost equal to Prussia's political status. A very good offer, and their consideration is to keep the parliamentary control of the area within the current scope, especially the Brandenburg province. It must be divided into at least half and Berlin as an independent administrative division." The prince closed his eyes and took a deep breath to calm his mood. I have to say that such an offer is really good! He needs to calm down, and then think about it.

"It is not difficult to do this, but it does not match our strategy." The prince said a moment later. "Just the separation of Brandenburg, Lower Saxony, most of the eastern part of Hanover, and parts of the Hesse-Nassau province currently controlled by the parliamentarians cannot effectively weaken the power of Prussia. After all, the Rhine-Ruhr area And Alsace-Lorraine, the largest coal and iron area in the empire, is in Prussia, and Silesia is also in Prussia. The largest industrial zone and textile and chemical zone within Prussia have been preserved. Prussia still has a lot of A big advantage, not to mention that now, the Kaiser wants to divide the Brandenburg area into another part!"
