Chapter 1,265 The Road to the Future

Chapter 1265 The road ahead

When it comes to farming, the prince believes that, let alone being number one in the world, at least Germany is number one. Ukraine and the Transcaucasus region have a lot to offer. And according to the agreement, the area here will be the territory of the Austro-Hungarian Empire or a vassal state of the Allied Powers in the future. It was not land that Prussia wanted to annex. The prince could save himself a lot of trouble.

"It still feels a bit pity." After the Kaiser finished speaking, he glanced at the prince and was not satisfied with the prince's answer. However, the prince's request was not directly vetoed, which shows that in principle it can be accommodated, but specific conditions need to be discussed.

"If the Nomanov dynasty collapses and an agreement is reached with the Russian government, Bavaria's military production can be tilted to the Western Front. We will successively dispatch no less than 8 combat divisions and 8 reorganized divisions, with a total of 15 Ten thousand people! This is already the limit. Since the beginning of the war, the Bavarian Army has fought hard on the Eastern Front, the Western Front and the Balkans. We have fulfilled our obligations. The entire Germany has a population of more than 70 million, while Bavaria only has 13 million. We I have paid enough." The prince gritted his teeth and said.

"Sending 8 divisions to the Western Front, taking into account the control of the occupied areas and the Balkan theater at the same time, this condition is not bad." The Kaiser thought in his mind. Is 8 divisions too many? Of course not much. But considering the size of the Bavarian Army and the huge area that needs to be controlled on the eastern front, it would be good to squeeze out these troops. This was very close to the Kaiser's psychological price, but he still wanted to continue to fight for something.

"These troops must carry no less than 7,000 tanks, assault guns and armored vehicles. Half of the Bavarian Air Force should also be deployed to the Western Front and placed under the command of the Western Front General Staff." The Kaiser thought. Want to say.

"Yes, I don't need to keep so much heavy equipment, but my troops can be used as sharp spears for charge on the Western Front. But they must not be used as cannon fodder!" After thinking for a moment, the prince said. Naturally, it is impossible for all the 7,000 battlefield vehicles to be tanks and assault guns. This is almost more than 70% of the current front-line armor strength of the Bavarian Army. Although the prince's army will expand, even considering next year, when the prince realizes his plan , the number of Bavarian tanks, assault guns and heavy armored vehicles can never exceed 1,500, which basically means that more than 50% of the Bavarian Army's armored units have been deployed.

But the prince believes that this is still a good deal. First of all, the Kaiser could only mobilize the troops of the Bavarian Army, but he could not take action against the Bohemian Army, which was nominally affiliated with the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The prince could command this army because he had the authorization from his wife, Crown Princess Mary. . Therefore, although most of the Bavarian Legion's armored elites have been deployed, Bohemia's armored strength is completely sufficient.

Secondly, after the collapse of the Nomanov dynasty, during the battle between the Red Army, the White Army and various miscellaneous forces, the heavy technical equipment in their hands was actually not very useful. After all, whether it was the Red Army or the White Army, The combat effectiveness cannot be compared with that of the previously organized Russian regular army.

To put it bluntly, they just beat the remaining Russian troops in various ways.

The Red Army's will to fight will be higher, but if nothing else happens, it will be the Red Army that finally signs the "Treaty of Bliss" in this dimension with the prince. Without internal clarification, the Red Army will not dare to fight with the prince's legion. Warring. As for dealing with the White Army and the independent national strength, do we still need a large number of tanks? These things are no longer necessary. On the contrary, upkeep and maintenance require a lot of manpower and material resources. It is better to support the battle on the Western Front.

As for the military strength that may be needed to deal with some domestic incidents in Austria-Hungary and Germany in the future? The prince also considered, paying attention to the previous premise, that after the large-scale fighting on the Eastern Front ended, the prince needed to maintain the Ukraine, Transcaucasus and Balkan theaters. On this basis, after excluding the legions and air force heading to the Western Front, Bavaria does not have many remaining troops. But what if the prince only needs to maintain two regions by then?

That’s right, there are two regions! When the war on the Eastern Front is basically over, the war in the Balkans is almost coming to an end! It’s not that the prince will concentrate his superior forces to drive Britain and France out of the Balkans, but by then, Britain and France will probably leave first, right? As for why? The reason is very simple!

The Russians on the Eastern Front are finished, then a considerable part of the force will be transferred to the Western Front, and Germany will launch the most violent attack in history! At this time, even the French's main base is not sure whether it can be defended. Who will care about the Balkans, a place where nothing matters? ! And without the British and French troops, Greece would have no choice but to hesitate. What? You ask Serbia? Don’t worry, maybe during the Battle of Dardanelles, it will be easily solved by the Bavarian Army heading south! Greece could rely on British bombers and naval guns for protection, but Serbia could not.

"If you consider allowing the Hungarians to be autonomous, it will not be difficult to deal with Austria with Emperor Fritz's acquiescence. As for Germany itself? The Kingdom of Bavaria also has its own garrison, the Social Democratic Party and the Spartacist Regiment. Although a type of radical left-wing force can confuse some people, it cannot face the real army. Their success depends on two things. The first is war weariness, and the second is that a large number of troops are fixed on the front line. But now , the first point may be weaker than in history, the second point? Haha, refer to the historical cleansing operations of the Freedom Corps, which did not require too many troops at all. As long as someone dares to do it, then those who just picked up the gun are definitely not The Bavarian Army’s opponents, even without tanks and heavy artillery.”

The prince has a basic prediction of what will happen two years later. In fact, after the demise of the Nomanov dynasty and the Americans remaining silent in this dimension, Germany has basically become invincible. Then before the whole of Germany "unifies its thinking and pushes a wave of French people", the prince must consider his own interests and the future internal situation of Germany! If I want to put it more clearly, I am preparing to switch from foreign war to internal war... After all, the prince is not preparing and fighting so hard for a simple thousand-year-old second child!

"This condition is acceptable. Anyway, we must leave a certain amount of troops on the Eastern Front and the Balkans." The Kaiser nodded in agreement. At this point, the goals of both sides have been achieved, and the Kaiser believed that he had made maximum use of and restricted the Bavarian Army. The prince also retained his right to remain on the Eastern Front. Everyone is happy, right?
