Now, the prince understands very well that everything else may be empty, only his own strength is real! The gap between Prussia and Bavaria is too big, so even after Bavaria gained Bohemia-Moravia, Prussia's industrial and economic strength is still more than twice as strong as Bavaria! After this war, although Bavaria can also gain a lot of benefits, Prussia gets more! Moreover, most of Prussia has a German population. Under the same circumstances, they will digest the added territory faster and better.

If we cannot take this opportunity to weaken Prussia, then who can guarantee that after the German Emperor recovered, we will not have plans to deal with Bavaria again? After all, the two most important industrial areas and the northern port areas are still under the control of Prussia! If the German Emperor's request is agreed, then Prussia will be weakened, but not completely!

However, the veto power is still very attractive! Theoretically speaking, it can at least ensure the undefeated status of Bavaria!

"Your Highness, do you like privilege?" Suddenly, Count Schelling next to him asked.

"Privacy is universal, and you should be aware of it as a nobleman." The prince said unexpectedly. You should know that Earl Schelling is second only to himself in the civil service system, and has a lot of power compared to the Bavarian Prime Minister. He can definitely be called one of the top aristocrats in the world!

"However, what I can convince me to serve you is not because of your bloodline and status, but because your actions have been recognized by me. No one is born to be inferior. Although we are still maintaining the rights of the nobles, we all know that if the nobles do not actively seek change, then all they can leave in the near future is a memory."

"And your talent conquered me. You gave Bavaria the strength of today. There is no longer a threat to your existence in the empire. So why can't we look at it longer? Seek a better tomorrow for the empire?"

"In the Federal Parliament, Prussia actually used the lost rights to exchange for the unity of the empire. When Emperor William I and Prime Minister Bismarck were alive, they probably thought about the issues of the Federal Parliament for a long time, right?" Earl Schelling said meaningfully.

"I understand what you mean. One of them is that you think that Bavaria will cause dissatisfaction from other countries after having privileges. Do you even think that this is the German emperor's praise of us? Is that true? After all, we unite with other countries, within the federal parliament, just to reject what we don't like and agree with what we agree with. If we have the veto power, Bavaria will think that the value of allies will decrease, and other countries naturally do not like this option to destroy the rules."

"As for another reason, I'm afraid that if the two countries of the Empire have veto power, then the Empire will have two centers, which will make the already loose empire even more loose. Is that true?" The prince signaled Earl Schelling to sit down, and he wanted to talk about this matter carefully.

"It's so, Your Highness, in fact, I think the federal parliament that you originally designated has no veto power is the most reasonable, and can increase the recognition of other states. At the same time, we abolish the privileges of Prussia and have also improved our political status in disguise."

"Your Highness, you can think about it. Just now, it is not difficult for us to reject a resolution. We and our allies can easily gather votes. The veto power granted by the German Emperor is actually not as important as imagined. Even if we should change the rules of the Federal Parliament and adjust the pass rate of three-quarters to two-thirds, we can still veto all disapproval resolutions. Moreover, after adjustment, it is more suitable to pass the resolutions we agree with!"

"I think it is a very good choice to not veto power, maintain good relations with most states, and at the same time change the passing rate of the Federal Parliament. In my opinion, it is best not to accept the conditions of the German Emperor." Earl Schelling said.

"I understand." Ruprechite nodded. He decided to reject the German Emperor's suggestion, because from the perspective of weakening Prussia or from Bavaria's own perspective, this veto power is a bit useless and has future troubles. "Since that's the case, if the German Emperor still wants to continue doing business, then let him change to a more tempting condition." The prince ordered.

"As for your order, Your Highness." Earl Schelling stood up respectfully and said.

"Okay, let's take a look at the conditions of the parliamentary delegation." Ruprecht said.

"The first half of the document sent by the parliament is no different from that of the German Emperor. The second half is interesting. They said that the parliamentary troops can fully use Bavarian equipment in future military construction." Earl Schelling said.

"Haha, as expected." Ruprecht was not surprised by this. Because he knew that the parliamentary faction had only one way to choose military equipment!

Where is the most important army factory in Prussia? Take the two most famous ones as examples, one is Krupp in Essen, and the other is Rheinmetallurgical in Düsseldorf. Both military factories are located in the famous Rhine Ruhr area, which means that in terms of administrative divisions, it is in the current Rhineland area... This is the control area of ​​the German Emperor, and the German Emperor will never give up here. It is almost impossible for the parliamentary faction to obtain the Rhine-Ruer area, so the point is that if the parliamentary faction succeeds in separating the border, then they will not find suitable equipment even if they organize an army!

Now the entire Germany can provide complete army equipment except Prussia and Bavaria. In the case of a feud with the German Emperor, if they do not obtain equipment from Bavaria, can they still make it themselves?

"However, this condition is not as sincere as the veto power proposed by the German Emperor." The prince commented. Not to mention the issue of supply and demand, just from the perspective of actual interests, even if the parliamentary faction fulfills its promises, Bavaria probably won't get much benefit.

The reason is very simple. After the war is over, Germany will definitely reduce its troops. Although Germany's territory has increased a lot now, the maximum strength of the pure army is 1.1 million, and Bavaria maintains a force of about 250,000. If Prussia is not classified, it will probably be around 600,000, and the remaining 250,000 troops belong to other countries.
