The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 609 Soft Knife II

In this case, in order to keep the rights in hand, no matter how harsh the conditions are, they can accept it! For example, the Kaiser can propose Bavaria's greater independence and the sharing of territorial interests after the war. And the capitalists or the Social Democratic Party can even propose to abolish the title of Kaiser, or even allow Bavaria and Austria to merge, which is entirely possible! Of course, no matter who it is, it will definitely give Bavaria considerable benefits in the sharing of post-war benefits.

"Are you going to sell it for a price, and then change the balance of power in Germany? Which side do you plan to stand in the end? The Kaiser or the Parliament?" Countess Laura thought for a while and said.

"The German Empire should continue. Some provinces or free cities can be fully parliamentary, but the entire country cannot be turned into a republic. This is not in line with our interests. Although the Kingdom of Prussia will be weakened, it still needs to exist." Ruprecht thought for a while and said.

"You want to dismember Prussia?" A thought that shocked and frightened him suddenly popped out of Laura's head! Prussia rose after 1840 and has now become the main body of the world's second industrial power. In the eyes of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the power of this small country is terrifying! And the prince in front of him actually wanted to complete a task that even the Austro-Hungarian Empire could not complete!

"This is the only option. The Kingdom of Bavaria cannot complete a qualitative change in World War I. Even with the support of Austria, it is difficult for us to fight against the mighty Prussia. Local forces will instead stand on the side of Prussia. One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. As long as Prussia exists, the merger of Bavaria and Austria is impossible. Even the descendants of me and Mary cannot have two crowns at the same time, so Prussia must be weakened!" Rupre Hitt said in his heart.

Political struggle is a life-and-death struggle. Now the prince is ruthless in attacking Prussia, but once Germany wins, Prussia will never show mercy. After all, if Concubine Mary becomes Queen Mary , coupled with his own Bavarian government, the pressure on Prussia within the German system will be very high. Even if the prince agrees that his descendants will inherit the two kingdoms, Prussia will still not be at ease. Really capable!

Of course, Prussia can't really be finished. Democracy will spread, and Austria will not be able to integrate into the Greater German system in a short period of time. Even the weakened Prussia will not agree to this, because this It means that the original status of the two parties is completely reversed! If the Hohenzollern family is completely ruined, then the whole of Prussia will be reintegrated into a republican government. And the fighting power of this government is still very strong, as can be seen from the speed at which the red regime in Bavaria was destroyed.

Therefore, the significance of the existence of the Prussian royal family is to avoid the establishment of the Prussian Freedom Gang in later generations! What Ruprecht wants is not to change the government for Prussia, nor is it simply to promise benefits. What Ruprecht wants is a collapsed and divided Prussia. Two pieces that are almost equal, or a few pieces, so whether it is a republican or a royalist state, if they want to obtain greater benefits, they must win over Bavaria in order to overwhelm their potential opponents.

Maybe after the war, Bavaria might become the third largest state. But generally speaking, the first and the second are born enemies, and the two new states divided from the original Prussia have enmity from the beginning,

And if you want to gain the support of the parliament, it is essential to win over Bavaria, which is second only to them. And if nothing else happens, Bavaria can have both sides until Austria's conditions are ripe to form a new German Empire! At that time, the Kingdom of Bavaria-Austria will become the main force of the entire Greater German Empire!

Of course, it is still early to say these things. Although the prince trusts Earl Laura, he will not tell her some core secrets and steps. After all, there is a specialization in surgery, and what she does has nothing to do with these things, so it's better not to know.

As for when this matter will be launched, **** also has a rough plan. At least it will not be launched until after the end of the Eastern Front and then the problem of the Austro-Hungarian Empire is resolved. It will not work if it is too early or too late. It's too early, and the Communist Party can't come up with enough troops to assess the internal turmoil, and before Prussia can be settled, the prince must first let the dust settle on the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and only by pulling in some Austrian troops can it guarantee the war against both sides of Prussia. absolute advantage. Not to mention the combat effectiveness, hundreds of thousands of people can still scare people!

If the time is late, it won't work. If Russia is not settled, His Royal Highness will naturally have an excuse to stay on the Eastern Front instead of going to the Western Front. When civil strife broke out in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Ruprecht also has an excuse not to go to the Western Front. After all, maintaining the rear Stability and ensuring that Austria-Hungary remained within the Allies was the overriding task. Austria-Hungary's industry is still considerable, and it is also an important channel for Germany to obtain materials from Turkey. But if these two things are done and there is no accident in Prussia, then **** has no reason to continue to delay...  

And if Ruprecht's troops arrive on the Western Front, once the troops are united, the Prussian General Staff will have complete control, and at that time, they will deal with whoever they say they want to deal with. The prince has no chance in theory or in practice! Therefore, the internal problems of the Austro-Hungarian Empire must be dealt with, and the Prussian Parliament must be launched before the troops reach the Western Front! Only in this way can the prince jump out of the circle and decide the fate of both parties!

But the question is will the opponent cooperate with Ruprecht's schedule? After careful consideration, the prince thinks that as long as some parties in the parliament don't want to lose and want to make trouble, they will definitely cooperate with the Communist Party! First of all, according to the historical process, internal instability in Germany will not appear at the beginning, and it may only appear after consumption to a certain extent. And if they want to launch a coup d'état, they will naturally have to consider the attitude of the Eastern Front Army commanded by the Prince. For them, it is the best situation without outside intervention, so they will definitely not be able to withdraw from the Prince's Army. Launch a coup d'état when born!
