"Can't we use other methods to obtain these loans?" asked Earl Schelling.

"Other way? Americans are very smart. They know that we are going to go to war with the Allies, so they cannot hold a large amount of German assets in their hands. If we are in terms of overseas assets and investment, we are far inferior to Britain and France. Their control over the offshore is not only reflected in the vast colonies, but also in the economic interests of the colonies and the market. They are also the makers of international financial rules, and they are also the largest creditors of the United States. Therefore, Americans would rather hold pounds and francs than accept the Mark."

"We can't endorse the United States' loans, right? Germany's gold reserves are limited, and to some extent these gold reserves will also be used as payment means and outsourced funds within the wartime alliance. These precious metal reserves are not necessarily enough for war, so how can they be consumed before this? So we have no choice!" Ruprecht said.

"Of course, the most important thing is that once war begins, our overseas assets will be swallowed up by the Allies soon. Not to mention countries like Britain, France and Russia, Japan will also have a share of the pie. The so-called neutral countries will also intend to get a share of our pie in various names. We have no choice for this kind of thing. Instead of cheapening these jackals, it is better to hand them over to the Americans as collateral. At least we can reduce our debts and provide guarantees for our resources during wartime."

"Think about it, for those assets located in neutral countries, we can convert them into real money and silver to reduce our debts with just one statement or one formality. Britain and France will never relax easily for certain assets. These things are as important to Britain and France as the United States, and the competition for these assets will inevitably lead to tension in the relationship between the two sides. This is very cost-effective both politically and economically."

"Doing this will lead to instability in domestic politics! The government will use the assets of those factory owners and financiers as collateral for war! Of course, Emperor William would provide these people with an IOU or set it as domestic debt, but this instability factor has been buried and may not be a big deal in peacetime, but once war begins, if these people do something, it will be a very difficult or even disastrous thing for the empire!" Earl Schelling said.

"This question? How to say it? If Germany wins, then they still have a chance to be compensated for what they lose, but what if they fail? They will not get anything. Even if they have dissatisfaction, they should be clear. They are tied to the interests of the empire. So there will be no problem." Ruprecht frowned slightly and then said.

"This, what you said is logically impeccable, but I don't think it's really foolproof. You don't have much contact with those capitalists. You don't know much about their greed and power. They only care about interests, not the country, and may even cooperate with the enemy in some cases. Their power is also very powerful. Their resources and products are very important to the military. They are good at agitating and propaganda. Sometimes the regime may not be overthrown by military forces."

"Think about it, when our army is fighting on the front line, what should we do if there is great turmoil in the rear? Should we continue to resist the frontal enemies, or turn around to suppress the rebellion? And will our army really obey the emperor and your orders in this situation?" Earl Schelling said worriedly.

Ruprecht's eyebrows couldn't help but jump slightly, but Count Schelling's answer was somewhat unexpected. Because what Count Schelling said was indeed possible. During the war, the Germans' will may not be so firm. In other words, except for Britain, France, Germany and Russia had mutinies or revolutions in the first world, France blocked it, and Russia and Germany were both finished! Although there is the main reason for the failure of the battlefield situation, from the subsequent perspective, the German bourgeoisie can still control a considerable military force during the war. In other words, they have the possibility of rebellion!

You should know that in history, when the November Revolution broke out in Germany, the result of the simultaneous operation of bourgeoisie and communism. Even the Bavarian Kingdom established a Soviet regime! The Red Guards of 30,000 people were established, but what was the result? Comrade Lenin just sent a congratulatory message on April 17, 1919. The German government's 60,000 troops surrounded Munich on April 30, and the war ended on May 3......

Friedrich Ebert, the first president of the Weimar Republic and chairman of the German Social Democratic Party, not only dealt with strength such as the Bavarian Soviet government, but also hired the Free Legion to deal with dissident members such as the Spartacus Alliance on the left of the Social Democratic Party. Without sufficient military power, how could the first president of the Weimar Republic accomplish this task? The biggest supporters behind them can only be the German bourgeoisie and the German army.

In the last stage of World War 1, after seeing that the situation could not continue, the German Emperor planned to establish a constitutional monarchy to overcome the crisis, and even prepared not to be a German emperor and only the Prussian king. At that time, the upper and middle classes of German society also had the idea that the empire could continue, but none of these prevented the riots in the rear. The German November Revolution killed the Second German Empire, and the Social Democratic Party and the Army in the Weimar Republic then killed the red forces in Germany. The final result was that the big bourgeoisie mastered the securities, and the integration system within the German army was retained. The army became a country in the middle of the country. What a good deal! And for ****, this was obviously impossible to accept!

Historically, in the face of increasing internal and external pressure, the German Emperor is very likely to make concessions. One thing that can be confirmed is that although the external environment of Germany has improved a lot, the domestic situation will still be relatively bad, and the possibility of outbreaks of forced palaces and political changes is still very high. Once the German Emperor makes concessions, the impact will be very far-reaching, and Bavaria cannot not be avoided.

At least in Earl Schelling's view, Prussia and Bavaria are one. If a revolution breaks out due to some people's incitement, everyone will be ruined! Just from the fact that Earl Schelling can see that other domestic forces have the ability and ambition to achieve changes in the state's regime, His Highness ****'s evaluation of Earl Schelling will be increased by several levels! This buddy's vision is so poisonous!

"This is something that the Emperor of Germany is considering. We don't need to bother, or it's useless to bother. But I will seriously consider what you say." After thinking for a while, **** gave an ambiguous answer.
