The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 665: Spectators in the stands

Five days later, the sky was finally clear. When Hindenburg continued to command the Prussian soldiers to fight against the muddy ground, when the Bavarian army on the opposite side was tired of instant noodles and began to eat black bread again, the audience in the stands finally It’s all here. Kaiser Wilhelm II, Emperor Fritz of Austria, King Ludwig III of Bavaria, Prince William, Grand Duke Ferdinand and the top high-level leaders of the Allied powers finally all came to a villa outside the exercise site. . Compared with the tension and killing on the battlefield before the war, in this high-level meeting, the parties are also full of gunpowder.

   "Fritz, I don't think what you have done recently is not friendly." The first words of Ludwig III after seeing Emperor Fritz made him unable to step down. The last king of Bavaria in history sometimes didn't even give the German emperor face, let alone the Austro-Hungarian emperor.

   "Hehe, you are worrying too much, maybe you won the war?" Emperor Fritz made a haha.

"What's the difference between winning and losing? If you lose, I will switch to another army to take charge of the Eastern Front. I hope he can lose this war. Ferdinand has a good relationship with the Kaiser, compared to what he hoped. The Prussian Legion will cooperate with the Austro-Hungarian Empire." Ludwig III said with a curl of lips.

   "There is no such thing." Emperor Fritz said.

   "It doesn't matter, I believe my son can prove that Ferdinand is not suitable for commanding the army at all." Ludwig III left with his entourage directly after speaking.

"Your Majesty, it seems that this time, the divergence between Bavaria and the Grand Duke has become a bit big." Not long after Ludwig III left, he had resigned, but still has considerable influence, Earl Tuft whispered to Fritz. Said the emperor.

  "Isn’t this what the Kaiser wants to see most? The attitudes are just superficial. Let outsiders say it, as long as the final decision is in our hands." Emperor Fritz said.

  "What if Bavaria really wins this time? Prince Ruprecht may ask for more command." Count Tuft said.

   "That can only be given. I will personally talk to Ruprecht about these things." Emperor Fritz said.

   "It's that simple?" Taft said unexpectedly.

"In the future, I hope that Germany and Austria-Hungary will be the most important poles in the military configuration of the Allies. But in addition, Bavaria should play an important role. In this way, the gap between us and Prussia will not be particularly large. In addition, if we If you can’t give Ruprecht what he wants, then he can choose the western front, and the eastern front can only be undertaken by us and a certain Prussian army alone. This is what I don’t want to see. One last word. In a war, the one who can fight is always the most delicious." The old emperor said meaningfully.

   "How are the preparations? The performance of the imperial army a few days ago disappointed me." On the other side, the Kaiser was summoning Xiao Moqi and others in a side hall, asking about the preparations for the final exercise.

   "Your Majesty, that is the irresistible weather. This can't be blamed on us." Xiao Maoqi defended.

"So you used a Bavarian half-track car to swagger from the Prussian Army to tow those big things? Well, now, even my son, the future fourth emperor of the German Empire, are starting to question you. They want to know why The efficiency of the Prussian General Staff will be so low."

"This is pretty good. The top nobles in Germany have seen all this. The princes of the Kingdom of Saxony, the Grand Duke of the Kingdom of Wurttemberg, the heirs of the Duchy of Baden, they have all seen it. Even Fritz's attitude There are some changes, this result is not what I want to see, do you understand? Little Mochi?" The Kaiser said with a calm face.

"I don't need to explain. We have an absolute superior force. We will win this war and tell them the strength of the Prussian army. You can go down and prepare now." The Kaiser did not want to hear any more explanations, and waved his hand to indicate that Xiao Maoqi could go down. Up.

While the first-rate kings are discussing this matter, the rulers and powers of the second-rate German states are also paying attention to this upcoming war. The Duke of Württemberg, Albrecht and King Frederick August III of the Kingdom of Saxony is also discussing this war.

  The Kingdom of Württemberg is the third largest kingdom in Germany, and it also has a certain amount of military strength. This state that has always been closer to Bavaria also hopes to adopt newer military equipment and systems. But because of Prussia's suppression, no large-scale cooperation with Bavaria was launched. In the view of the duke, as long as Bavaria can make do with this time, then the two sides can also be considered as an excuse for cooperation.

The Kingdom of Saxony, as the weakest of the four major kingdoms in Germany, does not actually have much thoughts, but because Saxony is in northern Bavaria and close to Russian Poland, it involves its own security issues. King Frederick of Saxony Lie August III also wanted to see how the Bavarian Army was. After all, theoretically the Prussian Army on the Eastern Front was used to defend East Prussia, and Saxony and Bavaria were both the prince’s defense zones.

"Perhaps after this war, the situation of the entire German military will change." Duke Albert Hitter said to Frederick August III next to him~lightnovelpub.net~What can be changed? ? The size of the Bavarian Legion is that big, and the overall structure of the empire will not change. "The King of Saxony said flatly.

"The military command system will naturally not change. I am talking about the military construction and equipment system. If it is really effective, I am afraid that the entire German military will undergo tremendous changes. As the leader of change, Bavaria will definitely enter the high-level military. As the highest level of the Prussian General Staff may also become the German General Staff, and we should all have a place." Duke Albrecht said.

  "This is difficult. I really want to know how much advantage the Bavarian Legion needs to play to induce the Kaiser to attack the Prussian General Staff?" Frederick August III said.

"Now is an extraordinary period. The entire empire has entered the fast lane of war. In the end, we will either stand on a new peak, or all kingdoms will fall into the dust. Prince Ruprecht has changed the Imperial Navy and the Imperial Army. The change may not be far away." The Duke paused and said: "But as you said, the performance of the Kingdom of Bavaria must be at least good enough this time!"

"Let's take a look, the exercise is about to begin. If Bavaria can really have a wonderful performance this time, I guess the Austrian emperor should be the happiest, and the Kaiser should be the one who has a headache. We are actually supporting actors." The Duke said thoughtfully.
