Chapter 2368 Failed Persuasion 2
"Damn it! If you have such a rich imagination?" Prime Minister Holwig complained wildly in his heart, but he couldn't explain it. How to explain it? Because Prime Minister Holwig really doesn't know why Moltke didn't accompany him. After all, he is just a politician, not a soldier. He doesn't understand Crook's emphasis on military relations. He thinks that both sides are just discussing political matters, so why should he take Moltke?
He couldn't explain it casually, because Crook on the opposite side would definitely not believe it! He would think that Prime Minister Hallweg was avoiding the important things...
So, the situation now becomes. I don’t listen to your explanation. Your explanation is just covering up the situation. So, Prime Minister Holwig found that he really killed the chat... What’s more sad is that Holwig didn’t know whether the current Moltke is really willing to follow the order to take action against Prussia, which is not only a problem before, but also because Moltke is not confident in the ability and control of the German emperor. He will just live with it now, fight and win, and win, and then lose, and then collapse and break the earth. I guess Moltke will choose to make do with it, right? Holwig said in his heart.
It’s over, Prime Minister Holwig, who is a lobbyist, has also voted. In this case, I still convince others to take a shower and go to bed!
"I hope you can consider my suggestions myself. The door to cooperation between us is always open. If you miss this opportunity, both you and we will regret it for life." The so-called "Tiger" will never lose his power. Before leaving, Prime Minister Holwig threw down a sentence.
"I hope that next time we meet again, this is not the case to be discussed." Admiral Crook said.
"Your Majesty, General Crook rejected our suggestion." After returning to the Worry Palace, Prime Minister Holweg reported to the German Emperor about the basic situation of the negotiations.
"It seems that our plan needs to be changed this time." To Hallwig's surprise, the German Emperor, who heard the news of the failure, was not furious. Although his face was a little angry, compared to the past, the German Emperor was already very "calm".
"Yes, it is really not easy to revive the glory of Prussia in one step. Marshal Moltke also disagreed with using force to solve this problem." Grand Duke Baden said. While Holwig and General Crook were negotiating, the German Emperor personally summoned Little Moltke to ask about his attitude. However, this time, Little Moltke once again voted against the German Emperor's suggestion, and his attitude was unusually firm! Little Moltke clearly stated that for the sake of the stability of the empire, he would never issue orders related to the civil war. Therefore, the German Emperor's plan has ended here, and it is impossible to solve the problem through violence.
Is there any way for the German Emperor to enforce it? This is theoretically possible, for example, to drive the little Moltke from the position of Chief of Staff of the German Emperor Prussian General Staff, and then change to someone who agrees. However, the German Emperor, who has experienced a political storm, is really afraid.
Although the refusal of Moltke made the German Emperor very angry, the only one whom the German Emperor truly trusted in the German army is now the only one left in the German army! Who can guarantee that the person who was replaced is not the second Hindenburg? Besides, even if there is another person, what will the German army think of the German Emperor? People are all thoughtful. Moltke was dismissed from his post, but in the most difficult moment, Moltke still supported the German Emperor. Now, Moltke was dismissed from his post again? What would others think? By then, the German Emperor was really afraid that he would become a lonely man! By then, let alone restoring the old Prussia, even the rights of the German Emperor Prussia may not be able to be preserved!
"What a pity, we can't do anything with such a good opportunity." Prime Minister Holwig said with some regret.
"No, we will not give up this opportunity. We want to give the Social Democratic Party a little color. If we don't want to annex the Parliament Prussia, then we stand with Bavaria and we can still get a lot." The German Emperor said.
"For example, control of the Imperial Parliament?" said Hallweg.
"Not only this, do you still remember how Silesia entered the parliamentary delegation? Didn't it be because the locals chose to vote to join the parliamentary delegation because they were dissatisfied with us indulging the Poles? In this case, we can completely repeat this operation and let the entire Hannover enter the German Emperor Prussia." The German Emperor said with a smile.
"However, if we want to achieve this, we must gain Bavaria's recognition, and then Bavaria comes forward to persuade the southern states, and with the states within Germany and you are close to, it is not difficult for us to pass this in the Federal Parliament." Grand Duke Baden thought for a while and said.
"Well, Grand Duke Baden, I will negotiate with Ruprecht in person about this matter. I hope you can inform me and then inform him of our general ideas. At the same time, we need to explain some things clearly to Marshal Moltke and Duke Württemberg." William II said firmly.
"I don't have to do it for you?" Grand Duke Baden said with some surprise.
"Thank you, cousin. You have always supported me. The friendship between us has surpassed the monarch and ministers and blood. Everything you have done to the Hohenzollern family will make me and my descendants remember it. But this meeting will determine the pattern of the empire in the next ten years. As the emperor, I must personally bear this kind of thing that determines the destiny of the country. After all, this is my responsibility." William II's words contain rare gratitude and firmness. After experiencing so many things, William II is indeed growing, although his growth is far from enough in the eyes of some people!
"What about Your Highness the Crown Prince?" Grand Duke Baden thought for a while and asked. He thought the crown prince should participate in this matter. After all, he will be the future German Emperor!
"He won't use it anymore, otherwise there will be too many people on our side, which will make other participants uncomfortable." The German Emperor said hesitantly.
"Okay." Grand Duke Baden looked at William II with a complicated expression. He could already feel the hesitation and entanglement in the heart of the Emperor, not for this matter, but for a more important matter! The Emperor of Germany was very dissatisfied with the current crown prince. He believed that the prince was more impulsive and incompetent than him. His life was very corrupt. If this kind of thing was placed before the war, the Emperor of Germany might tolerate it, but to now? Haha, William II was really afraid that once he gave the throne to the crown prince, the Hohenzollern family would be fallen into the mortal world next year!
He admired Prince Albert, but now, in the absence of other things, the German Emperor will naturally not cause trouble. Therefore, this time the German Emperor's idea is very simple, and neither the crown prince nor Prince Albert participated!
