The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 292: Remuneration two

"What you said makes sense, so why don't you plan to let this fresh blood flow all over the empire? If I don't cooperate, one day it will not be impossible for you to become the chief of the empire's general staff or minister of war. "The Kaiser asked.

;Haha, the empty glove white wolf, the prince does not know whether the promise of the moral emperor can be realized, after all, there is no precedent in the history of other kingdoms serving as chief of staff. But the prince can be sure that if the prince let go, then the fresh blood of the Bavarian army will definitely be contaminated. Prussia is too strong, their military is too strong, the final result is that Prussia will not be transformed, and Prussia will in turn affect Bavaria!

; "Your Majesty, you cannot expect to use a puddle of clear water to irrigate a desert, let alone turn into an oasis in a day. You should be very aware of this, so you use the power of other kingdoms to slowly improve the Prussian military structure "The prince said.

; "Hehe, you have always been like this, you can always add so-called righteousness to those unreasonable things! I have already acquired, I can give you the organization of 4 mobile divisions, but the premise is that you I must help me to establish a complete mobile force system for Prussia!" The German emperor said with a sullen expression, angrily! But the prince was not afraid, because he knew that the Kaiser had agreed to a concession, and what he did was just take care of his own face.

Prussia uses 60% of its national power to support nearly 80% of its military power. In fact, the pressure is still relatively high. After Schlieffen and others returned, the Kaiser was ready to establish a mechanized army, but unfortunately, the German General Staff Headed by Schlieffen did not agree with this proposal.

; The reason is very simple, too expensive, Bavarian people are rich and oily, and almost all vehicles are produced locally in Bavaria. Part of the cost is reduced, so they can get a mobile division, but the initial investment of this mobile division is still more than twice that of an ordinary infantry division. If the German Emperor wanted to acquire a division, the cost would be even higher. According to Schlieffen and others' calculations, if an army was acquired, it would probably be more than three times the investment of the normal army! This is not something Prussia can afford now.

; Of course you can say that when the auto industry develops and the scale becomes larger, the cost will be reduced, but that will be a future thing, and it will definitely not work now. It is also a problem to pass these military appropriations in the Prussian Parliament. It is no problem to increase the money, but how to increase and how to spend the money is a matter of the Prussian War Department and the General Staff. The Kaiser does not understand this!

; So the end result is that the Kaiser’s request is overwhelming. Sometimes the Kaiser really wants to replace Schlieffen directly, but think about it, it may not be better to replace it with a new one, so bear with it first. The inability of his own teammates is also one of the important reasons why the Kaiser was able to condone Prince Ruprecht. Because it is really difficult for him to find a like-minded partner who has sufficient status and ability.

"I can’t give you the four divisions at once. They must be divided into at least two batches. The relevant capital empire will not issue a mark. How Bavaria and Austro-Hungary will share this is your business. In return, you need to The six guard regiments of China were trained as mobile regiments!" The Kaiser finally made the decision.

"Okay, no problem." The prince nodded and agreed. Prussia can't rush to mount a mobile army, so it is impossible for Bavaria to mount 4 mobile divisions at the same time. In fact, it would be good to complete one before 1901. Then the Austro-Hungarian Empire helped to complete one more. It is estimated that it will take around 1904 to complete the remaining two, depending on how the prince sells arms in Russia...

; As for helping the Kaiser train a mobile force? This is nothing, anyway, in history, the Kaiser has paid his own money to equip the Guards with machine guns. This time it was nothing more than buying a car. All I need to provide is some officers and training. The economic cost is almost nothing. As for whether the German emperor can continue to promote this policy, it depends on the battle between the imperial power and the Junker nobles. The prince does not intend to intervene in these matters anyway.

The final result is not bad, the mobile division is slightly larger than the ordinary infantry division, and a division can have a maximum of 15,000 people. The four divisions are 60,000. Even considering that these troops may have elements of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, after completing this period of refurbishment, Bavaria will have at least one more army. The 4 armies accounted for almost one-sixth of the Prussian 25 armies! This ratio is already very high.

; And after completing his military plan, the prince should think about how to help his old man in the future! The combat effectiveness of the Austro-Hungarian army is really a problem, but fortunately the internal chaos makes it easy to intervene. If the Austrian emperor is willing to provide military expenses, he might as well help them improve.

; So, this event was finally confirmed. The Kaiser promised that within half a year, the Kaiser will push Prussia to agree to the Bavarian military plan from the General Staff, but before that, the two sides still have one more important thing to do. Yes, it is time for the Portuguese colony in Africa to change its owner!

; "The British lost their troops in the war with the Boers, and the Boers are now almost in control of the entire Eastern Cape, and there are even signs of attacking Cape Town. The blacks can also try to get rid of the shackles of the British. During this period of time, it is very unlikely that the British will interfere."

; "The General Staff has discussed the plan to fight Portugal and believes that it does not need as many troops to face Portugal. Their estimate is that Angola needs 5,000 people ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ 3,000 people in Mozambique can disintegrate the local area. The Portuguese resistance force. Schlieffen even believes that the navy does not need to participate, as long as we can send the army there before. What do you think?" the Kaiser asked.

"This is true from a purely military point of view. The Portuguese can only have 3,000 troops in Angola at most. I didn't use 5,000 to beat them to praise them, but the problem may not be that simple! There is politics behind the military! "The prince thought for a while and said.

; "I am not worried about the form of Mozambique. Mozambique is surrounded by British and German colonies. The French have few troops in Madagascar, and Mozambique is not very large. We can relax without the British intervention. To occupy it."

"But Angola is different. Angola is more than 50% larger than Mozambique. To the north is the Belgian colony and French Equatorial Africa. Our troops want to advance south from Namibia when the roads are not good. That is very It's a waste of time!" The prince expressed his concerns.
