After the talks ended, he immediately prepared to set off to Vienna, the capital of Austria. With the coordination of the diplomatic departments of the two countries, the whole process went very smoothly. Three days later, Grand Duke Baden and his entourage arrived at the Hoffman Palace.

"Full of respect and reveal a sense of alienation." Looking at the meticulous staff of the Austro-Hungarian Empire next to him and their official expressions made Grand Duke Baden feel a little uncomfortable. In fact, as a prince of Prussia, Grand Duke Baden knew that he was not popular now. This was completely different from the feeling he felt when he came to Vienna a few years ago. As for the reason? I can only say that before, when the Crown Prince Ferdinand was still there, the Crown Prince and the German Emperor were very good friends, so he also received good preferential treatment. However, this time, Austria was deeply alienated.

Of course, as a grand duke, he knew very well that the fundamental reason for this alienation was due to the deviation of the interests of both sides. Not to mention the far-reaching situation, Hungary was simply turbulent. The German Emperor banned the Bavarian army from entering the Austro-Hungarian Empire and made the Austro-Hungarian Emperor very unhappy. After all, the Bavarian army's combat effectiveness was sufficient. Grand Duke Baden estimated that if the German Emperor had not made a thug, the Hungarian problem might have been solved now.

To talk about the actual situation now, it is better to say that the German Empire helped the Austro-Hungarian Empire to capture a huge territory than the Bavarian army fighting the entire Eastern Front with the Austro-Hungarian Empire to beat the Russians to death. As for the East Prussian Army? If there is no contribution, it is definitely not objective, but seeing the East Prussian Army's less than 400,000 combat troops took away half of the spoils, it is impossible to say that Fritz had no objection!

"Your Majesty, your Majesty is inside, please come in." Just as Grand Duke Baden was thinking about it, a waiter whispered. Then Grand Duke nodded and walked into the hall.

"The Emperor Ao is in a good mental state?!" Looking at Emperor Fritz sitting in the upright position, Grand Duke Baden's left eye twitched slightly. He is in his 80s. Judging from his mental state, it seems that the old emperor has been doing very well recently. Grand Duke Baden said in his heart.

Facing the German Emperor's special envoy, the reception of the Ao Emperor was quite polite. However, Grand Duke Baden came here this time and obviously did not eat, drink and chat. After a brief greeting, both sides wanted to see the truth!

"His Majesty the German Emperor is very dissatisfied with your country's actions in the Polish region recently. The unauthorized defense replacement operation of your country and the Bavarian military directly harmed the interests of the German Empire and violated the prior agreement reached between us." Grand Duke Baden said as tactfully as possible.

"First of all, the defense replacement operation was carried out in accordance with the orders of the Eastern Front General Command of the Allied Powers. This does not mean that if there are some misunderstandings between the Eastern Front General Command and your General Staff, then the General Staff and your General Staff should first communicate with each other, rather than looking for me."

"Secondly, as for the agreement reached in advance by the Grand Duke, I just want to say that this is a verbal agreement after all, and the responsibility for truly breaking this balance is not me, nor even Bavaria. Do you agree with what I said?" Emperor Ao said solemnly.

"Damn it, old fox!" Grand Duke Baden cursed in his heart. The other party put all his responsibilities in a few words! But he couldn't say anything! Because they also acted according to procedures, and the Bohemian Legion also acted according to the orders of the Shangfeng. If you have the ability, you can ask Germany to veto the orders of the Eastern Front General Command from the General Staff! If you are more powerful, you can replace Ruprecht!

In fact, let alone the General Staff, even the German Emperor dared not remove Ruprecht's position as commander-in-chief of the Eastern Front, because this means a complete fall between the two sides! Therefore, in this case, as long as Ruprecht ignores the orders of the General Staff, the Austro-Hungarian Empire's defense replacement will be completely legal. The person's boss is the Eastern Front Command, not the German General Staff...

As for the second point, it was indeed the German Emperor who first broke the consensus of the three families to divide Russian Poland. The so-called "you have been on the first day of the lunar calendar, then you can't blame the other party for doing fifteen. This is what it means.

"However, this seriously damaged the relationship between the German Empire and the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and your intervention in disputes within the empire was obviously a very irrational act." Grand Duke Baden decided not to reason with the other party, and directly took out the banner of the German Empire to suppress people.

"The German Empire is powerful, but it is not a reason to invade other people's interests at will." Austrian said leisurely. "Of course, for you and me, politics is profit-oriented, and various means are also for their own interests. However, no matter what, our cooperation must maintain the most basic bottom line, and mutual benefit can lead to win-win results. Otherwise, if we break up, we will not get any benefits."

"Haha, do you have the nerve to say that it is mutually beneficial? Hungary has also participated in the war. Look at what Hungary is like now?" Grand Duke Baden said in his heart. Of course, his statement is actually a bit biased. Don't say that the Emperor of Austria would not agree with it because of the butt problem, and even obtained the German General Staff, the German generals would not agree with it. According to the mainstream view of the German military, even if Ruprecht did not help the Hungarians like protecting the Austrian army, he did not subjectively deal with Hungary in his approach. As for providing help, it is human favor for others to be willing to help, or it is inconvenient to help because of special circumstances. That's nothing wrong. After all, after taking Romania, the Hungarian army also herded sheep, and he was also slandered for Ruprecht's orders. He had to finish his own death with tears!

"You want to preside over justice for the Kingdom of Bavaria?" Grand Duke Baden said with a smile.

"He will naturally ask the German Emperor for his justice. I am confident in his ability. I can tell you clearly that this time, the territory received by the Bohemia Legion is not for Bavaria, but for Bohemia and Moravia!" Emperor Ao said seriously.

"What does it mean?!" Emperor Austria's words hit Grand Duke Baden's heart like a bomb. He suddenly felt that he was a little confused about Fritz's attitude! The Grand Duke was a little confused now. He clearly said that things about Prussia, Bavaria and Austro-Hungarian Empire were happening again, why did Bohemia emerge again?
