"Your Royal Highness, you are a little nervous." Prince Baden looked at Prince William who was sitting on the side and said. The welcoming ceremony has ended. In this welcoming ceremony, the Kingdom of Bavaria still gave the German emperor a lot of face. The Bavarian King Ludwig III, Prince Ruprecht and Prince Liopold are all present. This solemn atmosphere In front of the media, the two sides demonstrated the unity and good relations within the German Empire. However, all the core personnel know that what is going on in this conference hall is the key to this trip. In the waiting room of the conference room, the crown prince and his entourage are waiting for the arrival of the crown prince. After all, as the master, there are still some issues to be dealt with after the ceremony outside. Of course, this kind of thing can also be left to others. It all depends on the attitude of the owner.

"I feel that this time the Bavarian side may not be so easy to talk." The crown prince whispered to the Prince of Baden. To tell the truth, in Prussia, the crown prince can make some small movements under the agitation of his men, but deep down, he is still very afraid of the actual controller of the Bavarian kingdom. In other words, in Germany, the senior officials who know some insiders are afraid of the crown prince! Back then, Bavaria and Prussia could not even have one-eighth of Prussia's comprehensive strength! But now? Bavaria not only survived the chaos at the end of the war, but it also became one of the empire's three giants! The strategies and methods in this one have to be in awe!

"His Majesty has communicated with the crown prince, and there should be no problem in the whole process. Moreover, if the crown prince wants to retaliate, he would not choose this method of stumbling others at the negotiating table, because This is too petty." The prince said to the prince. In fact, he was not satisfied with the performance of the crown prince. When the opponent didn't care about him, the crown prince took the initiative to ask for trouble, but he was afraid when he needed to face it directly. Although it can be interpreted as seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, this kind of disposition is really not suitable for being an emperor.

"Well, I hope so." said the crown prince.

The crown prince and his party did not wait for too long. After half an hour, the crown prince arrived at the venue, and then the two sides quickly entered the subject. After a brief greeting, the crown prince sent a document to Crown Prince Ruprecht. This document is an explanation of the transfer of related matters in the Middle East, which clearly stipulates the transfer of rights between the two parties and the division of their interests. After a careful review, the crown prince happily signed his name. From the beginning of the meeting to the present, only 40 minutes have passed. On the surface, the main content of the meeting has been completed. The crown prince was very simple, without any muddles, and smoothly surprised all Prussians!

"You should be very clear that if the empire wants to use force to intervene in the situation in the Middle East, then we must obtain a stable forward base, and both the Balkans and the Black Sea are now the territory of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, so we want to pass You are here to seek the help of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. After all, you should be very clear that it is very troublesome for hundreds of thousands of troops and logistics personnel to enter another empire," said the crown prince.

Is it okay for the Kaiser to directly discuss this with the Austro-Hungarian Empire? Naturally it is possible. But the unequal status of the two sides will make the Kaiser very disadvantaged. To be fair, because the German Emperor did not operate this matter in the name of the hub, he could only negotiate with the Austro-Hungarian Empire as the Kingdom of Prussia, that is, a state under the empire. As a state, its sovereignty was incomplete. of!

The opponent can use this as an excuse to threaten the Kaiser. Considering the fact that the German Emperor is bound to advance the base, and the Austro-Hungarian Empire knows very well, the cost of this matter will be very high. If the Austro-Hungarian Empire proposes that everyone should do it together, the German Emperor will agree. , Or do not agree? This is very tangled! What if you are unwilling to pay a high cost? Naturally, it is directly related...

"What's the price?" the crown prince asked.

"We will pay for all actions and expenses, and can advance 300 million marks. We guarantee that after the war, in Turkey, the Austro-Hungarian Empire and us will enjoy equal trading opportunities. And the assets and assets of the Austro-Hungarian Empire in Turkey The project will be protected, and if there is any loss, the Turkish government will compensate after the war. His Majesty the emperor can endorse this point," the crown prince said.

"Take out your plan first. When I meet my father-in-law, I must at least tell him that this time the Kaiser is going to rent those bases, how many troops will be deployed, how much logistical supplies and time will it take?" Rupley Prince Hitt said.

"This is natural." Prince Albert on the side handed over the document. Then the prince began to read page by page and saw that he was very serious. He exchanged views with Prince Leopold next to him on some issues, and even asked the attendant to come up with some information. One minute and one second passed, and the ten-page report took an hour for Crown Prince Ruprecht to read it, while the Prussian delegation on the other side was left in the air for an hour.

"I feel he is targeting us." The crown prince said to Prince Baden with some irritation.

"There is a way of negotiation called sit-in. Both parties may not say a word for a few hours~lightnovelpub.net~ and do nothing. Today, our opponents are at least seriously studying our plans." Said the prince. (The so-called sit-in negotiations really exist, and the longest sit-in negotiations in history occurred during the negotiations between the two sides during the Korean War. Interested readers can check it out.)

"So, you are going to spend 150,000 troops and 4 months to completely solve the Turkish problem?" the crown prince said after putting the documents back on the table.

"We think this is enough. The Sultan of Turkey is our partner, and he controls the entire Asia Minor. We only need to defeat Pasha, who controls the Fertile Crescent," the crown prince said.

"If it was really simple, then we would have done it a long time ago. It is impossible to end the Turkish problem in such a short time according to your solution and military strength. Let's talk about the simplest problem, a German division. How long does it take to get to Baghdad from Constantinople? If I remember correctly, even an elite Prussian infantry division, a divisional unit can advance up to 35 kilometers a day. You wouldn’t think that , Can the troops go by train, right?" the crown prince said.
