"Well, we can discuss the next issue now." Ruprecht did not imagine that this meeting could completely finalize the matter. The issue of the parliament can be finalized because they have been in contact with each other many times before. As for this question, Little Mochi and Buhler have already expressed their support, and Grand Duke Baden is also in good faith. Albert and Bart are two great hammers in this regard. As long as the economic situation is not ugly, it is estimated that the plan is not difficult to pass.
And now, the last question is very important, and that is the question of the future German army. Now, in Prussia, both the Kaisers and the parliament are very dissatisfied with the army, and once Prussia is divided, it will definitely be involved. After the two states have established new armies, the question now arises, how should the imperial military system be constructed in the future?
"His Royal Highness, we first need to ensure the stability of the military during the transition period. After all, the country is currently in a war period. If the internal military is unstable, it can lead to very serious consequences." Grand Duke Baden said, everyone here naturally knows the so-called What is meant by the transition period, naturally, is the negotiation period when the former Prussia becomes the federal Prussia and the Kingdom of Prussia. Neither the Kaiser nor the parliament wanted the army to interfere.
"First, I need you to jointly issue a formal reconciliation statement, expressing that the problem should be resolved through negotiation rather than violence. Second, I need you to issue a limited offensive order on the front line to put pressure on the British and French coalition forces. Third, I will at least Send 400,000 Bavarian troops into the western front to stabilize the war. The last point is that I will serve as the commander-in-chief of the western front.” Ruprecht said.
"The first three points you raised are fine, but as for the last point? Are you planning to launch a large-scale attack?" asked Xiao Maoqi, the former chief of the general staff. "With all due respect, although we have successfully withstood the attacks of the British and French coalition forces, in the current domestic political situation, it is not good to launch an offensive."
"It's okay, this will be a limited offensive. The purpose is to mobilize the attention of the British and French coalition forces. I have already figured out the means to truly end the war. Maybe the victory can be secured in one afternoon!" Ruprecht said with a smile .
In fact, Ruprecht knows very well that the current domestic political instability has had a very negative impact on the imperial frontline army. The army is even more chaotic than the navy. After all, there are fewer naval personnel and one third of the Bavarians. The most important naval aviation force also came from Bavaria. In addition, Scheer and Hipper have handled them properly, and the navy The status of political neutrality has not lost much of the morale and organization of the Navy, and the training is still in training now.
But the army is different. Even before, there was almost a fire within the army. Therefore, the prince asked the German emperor and the parliament faction to issue a reconciliation statement in order to stabilize the military spirit and reassure the factions on the front line. The Bavarian Army was stationed to stabilize the line of defense. As for making Ruprecht the chief of staff? There is nothing more to say about this. With the prince’s status and record today, being the Chief of Staff is something everyone hopes to return to. Even if there is no parliamentary disturbance, the Kaiser will have the upper hand. If the Bavarian Legion enters the Western Front in general, no matter if it is a small Maoqi Hindenburg still has to say that the command of the chief of staff is given to the prince. After all, war is a serious matter, and fighting is the last word!
Of course, Ruprecht's appointment as the chief of staff also meant to suppress the high level of the Prussian army. With the prince and his Bavarian Legion, Crook and other high-ranking German soldiers can't make any waves. In this way, negotiations between the Kaiser and the parliament can proceed smoothly.
As for the future completion of negotiations, how to deal with military issues? Ruprecht has considered it. If he wants to win directly from the land, the price may be high. It does not mean that the Germans can't beat the British and French forces. In fact, if the prince wants, he can parade on the Champs Elysées again. , Celebrating his victory in the Hall of Mirrors in the Palace of Versailles.
But what's the price? Even if the Germans succeeded, they would have to pay hundreds of thousands of lives and hundreds of thousands of casualties! You know, the Anglo-French coalition still has more than 3 million troops on the western front! Maybe they have been exhausted in the winter offensive, maybe their equipment and ammunition have also consumed a lot, but after all, they still have millions of troops! In such a narrow area on the Western Front, I want to forcibly tear a gap from the more than 3 million Anglo-French allied forces and the dense cobweb-like defense line and then go in! What is the price for this TM?
Therefore, from the perspective of the prince, the German Empire has shed enough blood in this war. If it can, in order to preserve more vitality for the empire and to allow more people to return home safely~www.novelhall .com~The years to come will not be tormented by injuries or disabilities. Ruprecht believes that the Empire can achieve victory in another way!
"The French are ready to succumb. As long as our demands are not excessive, they can accept the armistice. According to the Americans, as long as we promise to return to the borders before the war, then the French colony in Central Africa and the issue of Belgian Congo All are easy to discuss. Now the only people who have to fight the empire to the end are the British, and the British are only honoring the English Channel and their navy. Therefore, I decided to kill the British navy to force the British to surrender!" Rupp Recht said.
"But now the Royal Navy still has a great advantage. This time, you and the High Seas Fleet will no longer fight and leave, but will kill the British Fleet through a long battle. This is completely different from the previous battle, and The danger is too great. We can hardly accept your safety and the risks involved." Xiao Maoqi said.
What Xiao Moqi said was sincere and sincere. It was not only a decent personal relationship between the two parties, but more importantly, now, neither the Germans nor the parliament allowed the prince to be surprised. The reason is very simple. In other words, Ruprecht can suppress the German officer regiment. If the prince fails to govern due to an accident, even if there is a powerful Bavarian legion, even if Prince Leopold is still there, it is difficult to say whether it can suppress the officer regiment, and the Kingdom of Bavaria May choose a more conservative strategy, regardless of the Kaiser and parliamentary affairs, the final result is most likely that the German army is in control of the situation...
