Chapter 1510 Timetable
From the current point of view, there is at least one and a half years left. The prince also needs to speed up the many plans at home and abroad. Now the prince’s attitude towards Russia cannot make them collapse too quickly, because if it is too fast, the Bavarian army will inevitably advance westward. The prince can delay it for a month or two, but it must not delay it for more than half a year... And the best time to collapse is in winter! In winter, even if William II wants the Bavarian army to return to the Western Front, the prince can still avoid the climate problem and inconvenient mobilization.
Then there is the problem within the alliance. If possible, the prince hopes that the Social Democratic Party will attack next spring! Why is this time? The reason is very simple. After Russia's defeat, the Allies will definitely feel a great crisis. Think about it, if more than 700,000 Bavarian and Bohemian Legions all came to the Western Front, what is that concept? In terms of quantity, Germany is equivalent to having two additional armies out of thin air, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is three armies in terms of combat effectiveness! Is Britain and France still fighting against Mao? Just gg!
Therefore, next spring, before the Bavarian and Bohemia advance westward on a large scale, Britain and France will inevitably launch a huge offensive against Germany's Western Front. In this case, it is not to mention whether Britain and France can achieve great results, but for a considerable period of time, it is inevitable that the German army's strength will be tight, and this is also the time when the German Emperor is unprecedentedly weak. If the Social Democratic Party can seize this opportunity and contact some military personnel, even if the uprising cannot be rebelled, the German Emperor will still feel a lot of pressure!
Of course, the prince also needs to seize this opportunity! At this time, Emperor Fritz should issue an edict, that Princess Mary will be promoted to Queen Mary, and her son, Albrecht, will also become the heir of the Austro-Hungarian Empire! The capture at this time is definitely perfect!
Because, no matter how angry the German emperor is about this matter or unwilling to accept it, so what? The front is the British and French allied forces attacked like a tide, and behind them are the Social Democratic Rebels constantly stabbing the knife in the back. And what about the prince? His wife only "accidentally" won the throne of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and the prince's son just won the crown of a future king and an emperor because of this! Do these things have something to do with you Prussia? Is it related? You haven't even made things clear at home, and you still have time to care about these things? What are you thinking?
Therefore, the German Emperor will not only not pursue Bavaria's relentless pursuit of Ruprecht in this matter, but will instead reduce his identity and reach an agreement with the prince. The content of the agreement will definitely involve Bavaria's future status, the division of war interests, and most importantly, the handling of domestic political turmoil! Because at this time, only the Kingdom of Bavaria has sufficient military strength to suppress the domestic Social Democratic Party. The strong combat effectiveness of the Bavarian Legion is one aspect, and another very important aspect is that the Junker nobles and capitalists, and various parties and groups have been integrated for decades, and a situation in which you have me and I have you have been formed, so that they can suppress it for an emperor? I am afraid they can't do it?
In fact, even at the end of the war in history, after the turmoil, some German officers still agreed with the rule of the German Emperor, but the senior officials may not think so. For example, at 10 a.m. on November 9, 1918, when the German Emperor arrived at Sba, at least one-third of the 50 divisions who came from the nearby ten army commands expressed their willingness to support the German Emperor in suppressing the rebellion, while Hindenburg himself expressed his silence. Coincidentally, the day before, when the German Emperor asked whether Lieutenant General Grena could suppress the first commander of the German Army (equivalent to the deputy chief of staff), Lieutenant General Grena, could suppress it, the latter also expressed his refusal. Although the prince had limited knowledge of this history, it was obvious from these things that a considerable number of German middle-level officials were willing to serve the German Emperor, but unfortunately, many of the German senior officials did not think so!
The reason is very simple. In the eyes of these real senior leaders, the German Emperor was just a person who could abandon allegiance. Anyway, with his own status, no matter who comes to power, he must give Junker a position. Later, this was true, the German Army Officer Corps maintained a detached attitude. The newly-employed Weimar government did not change the structure of the German Army! Therefore, even if the Prussian Legion had spare energy, in that case, there was not necessarily anyone who did this. Only Bavaria was truly capable and willing to do it! Only Ruprecht!
Of course, it is impossible for the prince to slap the Social Democratic Party completely to death, because if Prussia is allowed to be fully protected, it will be fine in a short time. After a long time, when the German Emperor recovers, he will definitely attack Bavaria. Don’t believe in William II’s moral integrity. No ruler will allow Bavaria to act like this. He will definitely draw a list and prepare for liquidation. At this time, with the support of his wife and the backing of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Bavaria may not lose, but it is a troublesome thing after all, right?
Therefore, Prussia is absolutely impossible to preserve in this political storm! Prussia, which accounts for more than 60% of the territory of Germany and more than 60% of the population, will inevitably split! Some of them will continue to be ruled by the Prussian king William II, while the other part can exist as a new state! No matter what, there must be a place for those capitalists, right? In this case, after the political territory changes greatly, neither the weakened Prussia nor the new free state will be able to form an advantage over Bavaria (don't forget that the prince and the rule of Bohemia-Moravia). Bavaria will naturally be stable.
As for whether William II can continue to maintain the title of German Emperor in the end, is this? The prince has not yet thought about it. But in the future, the situation of Prussia's dominance will become history, and a three-way system with mutual checks and balances will be established within Germany. Of course, the prince can go further, that is what happens in the future, and that is all a story, and I will talk about it later!
As for what to do if the domestic matter is handled? It goes without saying that? Of course, I tried hard to confront the French on the Western Front, and then the High Seas Fleet launched a "destined showdown" with the British Fleet in the North Sea. At this point, Germany will not lose anymore. Without the help of the Americans, Britain and France will not be able to continue to fight. As long as Germany does not ask for a price too much, it is still okay to make a fortune. So, by then, nothing will be a problem!
