Chapter 2261 Storm Rising 3 "Page 1/1"

Of course, the Kaiser dared not say that Bavaria would be divided. After all, if Bavaria is allowed to digest the fruits of its victory, Bavaria after the war will even become a powerful country far surpassing France! A country of this size can already be called a great power! If the Kaiser eventually pushes out Bavaria, and then Bavaria and Austria-Hungary merge, then the balance of power between Germany and Austria will undergo a fundamental change! At that time, it will be hard to tell who is the younger brother and who is the older brother!

So, now for Bavaria, the Kaiser and the parliament can appropriately suppress them, but they must not make trouble! If it is said that the previous actions on Bavaria were done by everyone, then the result of the actions on Bavaria now is that Germany may be directly disintegrated into three parts, and then Bavaria and the Austro-Hungarian Empire merged, and then the internal structure of the German system returned to Vienna. In terms of the degree of dominance, of course, the future Austro-Hungarian royal family may be Habsburg-Wittelsbach!

When I think of this, William II feels liver pain! You can say that the previous Habsburg family’s political skills are no longer there. The Austro-Hungarian regiment that died carrying the Ottomans in Southeast Europe has also disappeared. You can even say that the Austro-Hungarian Empire has become a country that relies heavily on allies, but the German Emperor I have to admit that the marriage tactics of the Habsburg family are as strong as ever! Can't afford it, can't afford it! How about learning by yourself?

"On this issue, the parliament sent us a suggestion. Their idea is to settle the reparations for the war between the East and the West. Because the German Army is mainly responsible for the Western Front, the British and French reparations are mainly paid to the Empire, and the Austro-Hungarian Empire is mainly responsible for the Eastern Front. The Russians' compensation is mainly to Austria-Hungary." Little Moqi said.

"Hehe, do those parliamentarians still want to throw Bavaria out of this feast? After all, the Bavarian Army is mainly in the direction of the Eastern Front and the Balkans." William II said with a smile. To tell the truth, from the bottom of his heart, William II really agrees with the parliamentarians. After all, the compensation on the Western Front is big! The compensation for the Eastern Front? How do you say this question? There is still a melee in Russia. I don’t know who can win, and the peace treaty has not been signed. At this time, who are you looking for money? This clearly removed the Austro-Hungarian Empire and Bavaria from the largest cake on the Western Front. However, the idea is very beautiful, the reality is very skinny!

"If Albert dares to formally put forward this idea, then I doubt he can survive a week." Grand Duke Baden sneered.

"But this idea can be used for reference. On some issues, our interests are similar to those of parliamentarians." The Kaiser's answer was unexpected.

"Your Majesty, this will bring a very big political risk. We even have to consider this situation. When we put forward this opinion, if the parliamentarians suddenly turn against the water, then we are not human inside and outside!" Grand Duke Baden I hurriedly said, so good, now there is a question, why this proposal can only be made by the Kaiser, and not by the parliamentary party headed by Albert? This involves the current political situation in Germany.

After many compromises, Bavaria stated that it did not have much ambitions for Berlin government affairs, so there was not much power in the cabinet and the Reichstag. Bavaria’s influence on the German political situation was reflected in two points. The first point was its own strong national power and The second point of the deterrence brought about by military power is the veto power in the Federal Parliament! Of course, this veto power is effective only when Bavaria and his allies use it together.

The Imperial War cabinet headed by Prime Minister Holweger was retained, so some government issues were mainly controlled by the Kaiser. In the formulation of the negotiation policy and the sharing of interests, the Kaiser with the status of the central government obviously has the advantage, so it is logical for the Kaiser to propose the plan!

That's great, what did the parliamentary gain? Naturally, it is the absolute control in the Reichstag. That is to say, they can veto the bill proposed by the government or agree to it. Of course, after agreeing, the final effect depends on the game of the Bundestag, but in addition to Bavaria, The parliamentary faction can already veto over 80% of the proposals!

That's great, what is the political process after compromise now? The Kaiser proposes a resolution, and then everyone puts it in the Reichstag to vote, if it is passed, then enter the Federal Parliament! And the parliament cannot replace the government's authority! Therefore, the distribution of benefits can only be proposed by the Kaiser. Does it feel that it is highly weighted? Yes, it is true, but this is a matter of both opportunities and challenges!

If you come up with a proposal, you will first clarify your point of view. Of course, before the proposal, the Kaiser will definitely negotiate and exchange interests with the major powers in Germany. It's normal even to come up with some secret agreements, but when you finally come up with a proposal, how can you guarantee that those who had negotiated will support you in the Imperial Assembly or the Federal Assembly? This betrayal is very common! After all, it's a secret appointment! Especially when there are huge benefits! What is the saying? It doesn't matter loyalty but the benefits of betrayal are not high enough! No one can guarantee that the proposal made by the parliamentarians is not a trap!

If the Kaiser really proposes it, and then the parliamentarians will turn back! Then the situation becomes the parliamentary and Bavarian side against the Kaiser! The situation was reversed! Even if the Federal Parliament and the Reichstag simultaneously propose a motion of no confidence in the Prime Minister and the Cabinet of Holweger, the power of the Imperial government in the hands of the Kaiser will be lost! At that time, both Bavaria and the parliament will be the winners, and the only loser is the Kaiser!

In fact, the Grand Duke of Baden is very close to Bavaria. This closeness is not only because everyone was born as a top nobleman, nor is it simply because everyone has the same or similar views on certain things. Of course, there are indeed some reasons for this. , But the most fundamental problem is that Bavaria does not seek rights in the central government!

Ruprecht will not be the Prime Minister of the Empire. Other heavyweights in Bavaria have no foundation in Berlin. They currently do not have the conditions to form a cabinet of South Germans! And Ruprecht also wisely expressed his views, so this is equivalent to telling everyone that Bavaria and anyone are not enemies in the central power! Well, for such a powerful faction, for such a Bavarian kingdom that knows to advance and retreat, the Grand Duke of Baden thought, why do we have to come up and be the first to touch the tiger's ass?
