Chapter 1496 Interest Competition II

Chapter 1496 Competition for interests 2

It is definitely not an isolated incident that such a thing occurs in one's own control area. The prince believes that the current political situation in Germany, especially in Prussia, may have changed. This is naturally due to the triumphant advance of the Allied Powers on the Eastern Front, allowing everyone to see the dawn of victory. They can't wait to pick up their knives and forks and prepare to share some benefits. On the other hand, it may be that the Kaiser took action....

The prince has not received definite information on this point, but, according to Ruprecht’s understanding of William II, this guy who likes to play tricks, after getting the news that he will provide help, if he does not do something If he moves, then he is not William II! He must be looking for ways to consolidate his power, and control of Parliament, must be! As for how to do it, the prince still needs time to collect information.

"Ma Dan, you can't make a big news at this time!" His Royal Highness muttered in his heart. The prince wanted to make trouble, but the premise of Ruprecht's trouble was that the foreign aggression had almost been dealt with, so that he would not kill himself, but just these Prussian guys.... Needless to say, the center and right of the Social Democratic Party held large-scale strikes in Berlin, Hamburg and other areas in the past two days, demanding the abolition of three-level elections and requiring the prime minister to be responsible to the parliament....

To be honest, the prince always believed that the German government's control over the big bourgeoisie was not strong, and the First World War was not bad, at least it could be regarded as an honest production, but by the Second World War, Germany's national control ability was simply rubbish! The efficiency is the worst among the major participating countries! Military production can be described as chaos! The government has been completely infiltrated into a sieve by capitalists. As for this kind of pig teammate, the prince's opinion on how to deal with it is also very clear! Those who can be defeated will be defeated, and those who cannot be defeated will be killed! During the current national war, these political parties can still do these things. It's not too much to be charged with treason, is it?

Prince Leopold also sent part of the battle report on the northern front, the content of which was naturally the battle between the Mackensen Army and the Russian garrison on the Baltic Sea. Generally speaking, after some troops were transferred westward, the strength of Mackensen's legion remained at around 350,000 to 400,000, while the Russians' strength in this direction was probably more than 600,000. Therefore, the overall situation is that Mackensen has more than enough defense, but not enough offensive ability. The two sides have been engaged in a tug-of-war, the German army is advancing very slowly, but the pressure on the Russians is not small!

Now, with the help of the German High Seas Fleet Squadron, Mackensen has reached Tallinn, but in the final stage of the siege, the two sides fought very stalemate, and Mackensen has surrounded at least 100,000 Russian and paramilitary troops Units, but among the ruins of the city, the Russians resisted very tenaciously. Even though they had lost most of their foreign aid, they still struggled to resist in the streets, barricades, and even ruins.

Such resistance was not worthless. Just when Mackensen was besieging the city, the Russians re-mobilized troops from Ukraine and the Transcaucasus region, and together with the original troops, established a new line of defense. At the same time, Germany and Finland also began to contact,

Germany expressed its willingness to support Finland's independence and is willing to provide supplies and weapons, but the premise is that they must participate in the war against Russia. At present, this plan is going relatively smoothly. So far, Mackensen still hopes that this year, his Troops can step into St. Petersburg!

Judging from the news sent by the Kaiser, someone has returned to his homeland and started his work. The work is progressing smoothly, and dissatisfaction within Russia is rapidly increasing. Fortunately, the supplies obtained by Russian civilians can barely guarantee their lives. If the war is delayed until winter, Russia may not be able to hold on, right? The prince said in his heart.

"Actually, if possible, I hope that Mackensen's offensive will not be too aggressive. The target of the attack can be adjusted and shifted from St. Petersburg to other areas." The prince raised the pen in his hand and wrote on a piece of letterhead. On the eve of Russia's collapse, the prince believed that there was no need to exert too much pressure. The troops should move towards Belarus and occupy more territory, rather than entangled in occupying the capital, because an attack on the latter would make the Russians The resistance was surprisingly fierce. This is not a good thing for Germany. Relatively speaking, it is more important to occupy more territories and prepare for future negotiations.

After a general understanding of the situation on the entire Eastern Front, the prince began to adjust the deployment. Since the situation in the Balkans has been eased to a large extent due to the surprise attack of the Spey fleet, in a short period of time, continue to concentrate a large number of troops here. The military strength, especially the air force, has become outdated. After all, the prince's attitude towards the Allied Powers is not completely outside Asia Minor. The icing on the cake is never as good as the timely help. The prince needs Britain and France to land in Asia Minor. Only in this way can Turkey realize The importance of Germany as an ally, so we must create this "opportunity" for Britain and France!

It can be expected that the Russian Army seems to be planning to launch another large-scale offensive in southern Ukraine. This may be the last large-scale Russian offensive in Ukraine. Marching into Donetsk or going further away-the offensive in the lower Volga region will become quite smooth. The reason is simple, the Russians have no soldiers.

Therefore, the prince plans to mobilize some troops from the Balkans and supply most of the newly supplemented equipment to Prince Leopold. His task is to take advantage of the Bavarian Army in the north when Russia launches an attack on the Hungarian Army in the lower reaches of the Dnieper River. Forcing the Dnieper River and then quickly going south along the confluence, a large-scale encirclement is in progress!

As for how to fight after this battle is over? Does that need to be said? Pushed it directly, and in order to ensure the speed of advancement, at the right time, Ruprecht will ask the Army and the Allied Mediterranean Fleet to cooperate with each other to conduct landing operations in the coastal areas of Ukraine and Transcaucasus, and if possible, fall into civil strife in Russia After that, see if you can take Sevastopol cheaply and remove the last nail. In this way, a large amount of supplies and troops can be transported by sea, the logistics pressure will be greatly reduced, and the marching speed will also increase a lot. And the purpose of the prince is to occupy Baku this year!
