"Believe me, Mr. Buhler, I am not a reckless person. I know how serious it is. I don't have a good impression of the parliamentarians. If it weren't for the empire, I could have killed the parliamentarians completely during the civil strife! At that time, I was very disappointed in His Majesty’s abilities, and at the same time I had some illusions about you. For the millions of officers and soldiers, and their millions of family members, we must teach Albert and others a lesson!"
"Mr. Buhler, I hope that you can use your influence to control the police. I can guarantee that before the police use violence, all the armed forces will not intervene. If the parliament faction wants to solve the problem by violent suppression , We will seek justice for those colleagues!" Admiral Crook said word by word, his words full of threats.
"Fuck." Buhler really regrets it now. He really didn't expect things to go to this level. After all, military rebellion has never happened in the history of the Second German Empire! Even though there are incidents of military intervention in politics, there is absolutely no rebellion. But now, how could this be?
In fact, the reason is very simple. In the era of the German Emperor, the German Emperor had both military power and political power. The army was controlled by the imperial power, and the interests of the German Emperor and the Junker nobles were the same. As long as the Kaiser is willing, he can easily replace all high-level military officers, including the Minister of War and the Chief of Staff, without worrying about counterattacking. But in the current parliamentary faction? The control of the army does not fall into the hands of the government, and when the government overly harms the interests of the army, the army will naturally launch a counterattack. Of course, the rebellion is a bit serious, but all kinds of boycotts and protests are necessary.
In fact, during the Weimar Republic in history, the government never really effectively controlled the army, and there were also rebellions by the army. (The specific content can be seen in the study of war history.) In terms of the control of the army, the Weimar Republic was inferior to the German Emperor... And because the right wing and center of the Social Democratic Party were in power, they had to compromise with the Junker nobles and officers for their own rule. In history, there were measures to return the property of the German emperor and nobles and guarantee the rights and interests of the Junker nobles.
"I think we can still talk about some issues. You know our situation is the worst among the three countries. Mr. Albert is indeed in trouble." I have felt that something is wrong. Buhler tried his best to ease the antagonistic relationship between the two parties. If it was before, Crook might still want to talk to the other side, but now, after reaching an alliance with Crown Prince Ruprecht, Crook has decided to take strong measures.
"Because the situation is terrible, the interests of ordinary people are lost in exchange for the appreciation of the master behind?" Crook sneered. "Well, Mr. Buhler, I hope that we can still cooperate in the future. My previous pledges still work. As long as the police do not use violent measures against our former colleagues, the army will remain neutral and the army will not seek to establish a military government. Neither the Kaiser nor Bavaria would agree to this, nor is it the tradition of the German army. As long as we have our own legitimate interests and arrange a way out for our officers and soldiers, they should be treated like this."
"Mr. Buhler, now there is an opportunity before you. One option is to stand aside, and then wait for things to calm down, and we will continue to cooperate. The other option is to stand on the opposite side of us and be affected." K said.
"I reserve my opinion, Mr. Crook. I hope you can do it for yourself. It is not normal for the army to interfere in the operation of the government. This is a regression of society. I think you, as a patriot, don't want to see such a day come. ?" Bühler said to Crook before leaving.
"It is indeed wrong for the army to interfere in the government, but it is wrong for the government to owe soldiers who fought for the country, legally and morally, no matter what kind of high-sounding reasons you find! The country has only 20 million people, and the number of combatants exceeds 1 million, plus their family members, that’s a population of several million! Albert and others offend so many people, don’t they want to be good? To be honest, in terms of public interest, they are far inferior to the Social Democratic Left and inferior to Bismarck. Prime Minister, the latter has established Germany's first social security system! This injustice must be changed!" Crook reiterated his opinion again.
So, with the upcoming resolution of the Prussian government of the Parliament, a storm that gradually sweeps the entire Prussian Parliament is brewing. After the talks ended, Buhler regretted his actions. He even thought that his actions directly detonated the army's counterattack ideas. He could not prevent the passage of relevant resolutions, but he also used his own means to remind Albert and others of possible overreactions by the military. And on the grounds of easing the contradiction, I hope Albert can give in a little bit.
However, Buhler’s warning Albert and others do not think it is true, or just think it is military intimidation. After all, if the military is really going to do something, then why should Crook tell Buhler? Is their relationship good?
Moreover, judging from previous performances, both Ruprecht and the Kaiser, both of them were very vigilant in their military interventions. For example, at the quasi-federal conference held in Bavaria, Ruprecht decidedly Rejecting the suggestion of the military to send representatives to participate, this statement has been very clear. The Kaiser has also tightened its control over the army after the civil strife. In their view, if the Parliament sends an army to do things at this time, it will undoubtedly touch the sensitive nerves of Bavaria and Kaiser. The latter pressure is enough to suppress Crook and others. Of course, Albert did not know that Crook and others had reached agreement with Ruprecht on certain issues!
Ruprecht, Crook and others prepared their plans, Buhler was running around in order to eliminate the conflict that was about to break out, and the Social Democratic government easily passed the bill on the placement of veterans and began to implement it. The Kaiser is considering how to discuss the distribution of compensation in the next meeting with Bavaria. All contradictions and conflicts are brewing and seem to be waiting for a tipping point.
It didn’t take long for all this to happen. A seemingly very accidental time finally triggered the entire storm, and the beginning of this incident did indeed start at a retired military personnel distribution station in Hanover!
