Chapter 2907 different ideas
We sincerely invite the Bavarian Legion to participate in this operation. Your status and benefits will not be lower than those of the Prussian Federation. You have said that all our actions are for the Empire. Although we have conflicts and differences in some matters, on some unavoidable issues, I hope that we will abandon past grudges and work together. I can guarantee that Bavaria has sufficient say in the entire command system. In the talks before the final farewell, the crown prince almost didn't tell Ruprecht that we only have nominal command power, we only have one face, and everything else can be discussed! Almost all Prussians believe that this condition is rich enough!
Our philosophy is different, and I even suspect that you do not understand our plans and ideas about Turkey. I have said countless times that we need not just a submissive vassal, but we also need this vassal to grow into useful helpers. Just like the British support Japan, the empire's energy is limited, and the enemies they face are unprecedentedly powerful, so in some secondary strategic directions, we must use the areas we support to help us stabilize the situation.
From an economic perspective, it can only be developed when Turkey changes from a religious country to a secular modern country, and the development of Turkey has enough ability to digest our products, from tanks, warships and aircraft to chemical dyes and drugs and cars. A wealthy Turkey is in our interests, and through mutual cooperation, we can develop better.
So, from the above perspective, the Turkish Sudan you support cannot build such a country. We need not only Turkey's oil, but also the market and Turkey's strength. If the Turkish market can meet the empire's growing production capacity and make Turkey a reliable helper, we must give him a person who can shoulder the heavy responsibility. I think Kemal is a very good choice, but you all rejected it. This is the biggest difference between us. The issue of Turkey's positioning in the future. Ruprecht said.
Your idea is a bit too ideal. How do you ensure that the strong Turkey will not betray us? In fact, I have always believed that as long as there is a strong man in this world, the strong have absolute advantages and dominance over the weak. Whether internationally or domestically, I have this view. Many people don’t like my way of dealing with the Slavs and the Poles, but I think that only by maintaining the strong position of the Germans can our empire be stable and Germany is our empire. The crown prince said.
Your idea is too narrow. Look at the current Junker nobles in East Prussia. If you go back to 5 generations, they are all Poles! Look at the current German Empire, the foreign population has accounted for a considerable proportion. In this case, it is unrealistic for you to try to permanently isolate and oppress them. What you do can only make the crisis accumulate and will break out one day. By that time, no one can save you. Think about the Social Democratic turmoil in the late war. They just incite and deceive some people and almost make the Hohenzollern family crown come to fruition! The lesson of the former!
Well, some problems cannot be solved simply by language. Now we are back to the initial problem. I will give you the opportunity and time to solve this problem. If you solve it, then the Prussian Kingdom will gain both fame and fortune. If it cannot be solved, then I will naturally solve it according to my requirements. The Crown Prince said at the end.
You have underestimated our perseverance and determination a little. I believe that as long as the Kingdom of Prussia goes its best, the Turkey problem can definitely be solved. I can tell you clearly that even if we lose this war, we will be able to defeat Turkey! The crown prince said gritting his teeth.
Haha, it's so naive. The Crown Prince sneered in his heart. He believed that the words said by the Crown Prince were sincere. He really wanted to do this for his face at all costs. But if the things in this world were done by you and you made up your mind, then wouldn't this world be too beautiful? Do you think you are God? Even if the Crown Prince really has this determination, would the German Emperor think so? Will the Junker nobles and the Prussian Federation, who pursued interests, put the empire in this quagmire and could not extricate themselves and simply for the face of someone? Take a shower and go to bed. Even if the American and the Soviet Union in the next world still have to be cowardly when it should be!
Maybe our considerations are indeed inappropriate, and maybe you are a little worried, but no matter what, I think we are consistent in listing on one issue, that is, we must let Turkey stand on our side. We cannot accept Turkey's fragmentation, nor can we accept other major powers to control Turkey. So for this common purpose, I think we can still cooperate in some things. We do not ask your country's army to be included under our command, but we just hope that the Bavarian Legion can have some positive effects and can maintain contact and coordination with us. This is OK, right? Our previous conditions remain unchanged. After a while, Prince Baden said that this time, he took a step back and the Bavarian Legion can act alone in the Middle East.
The crown prince did not answer but looked at the crown prince and Prince Albert. The crown prince naturally looked dissatisfied and did not respond, but did not object. After hesitating for a moment, Prince Albert nodded in agreement. So, on this issue, two people agreed, one abstained, and passed!
Well, we are like this, when the Prussian Legion takes action from the Mediterranean and Black Sea, the Bavarian Legion will land in Basra and Kuwait in the Persian Gulf. We will set a nail at the entrance of the Mediterranean Basin and closely monitor the movements in the Persian direction. We are not worried about the Persians, but we are worried about the Russians armed by the Americans. We will at least maintain a combat force in the Mediterranean Basin, the crown prince thought for a while and said.
I think if there was an army, then we could solve the problem by attacking north and south. Prince Albert said.
Solve the problem? It's impossible. You underestimate the bets placed by the Americans and the Russians this time. Remember, the only thing that can fundamentally solve the problem is under my command, and the entire empire works together. It doesn't matter if you don't believe it, let's wait and see. The crown prince said at the end.
