Chapter 1716 The Grand Duke and Little Maoqi 2

"They are also unwilling to fight a civil war that is enough to destroy Germany." Moltke said. Xiao Maoqi was also unusually angry. The battle was about to be won, but so many nonsense happened. Is there anything we can’t talk about after the battle? Now he really wants to open the minds of those politicians and see what kind of brains these guys have to come up with such bastard ideas. If Germany lost the victory because of this, it would probably create a miracle in the history of world war, right? !

"So, why do you want to see me?" Grand Duke Baden said with a responsible look.

"Persuade the Kaiser to give up the plan for the Kingdom of Poland." Moltke said.

"That's impossible! The establishment of the Kingdom of Poland has spread throughout the country, especially in areas where Poles are concentrated! Especially now, when everyone knows that the Kaiser supports the establishment of the Kingdom of Poland, if the cancellation is suddenly announced , then it will be a heavy blow to the prestige of the Kaiser and the government." The Grand Duke of Baden paused and continued.

"And, to be honest, although I don't agree with the adventurous behavior of those guys in the Parliament, but to be honest, I think Bavaria has great ambitions. This time, they have gained too many benefits from the Eastern Front. If according to the current situation If divided into control areas, they can get nearly 40,000 square kilometers from Poland and at least 100,000 square kilometers from Belarus and Ukraine. In this case, under the crown of the Wittelsbach family, they will have at least 300,000 square kilometers. Square kilometers of land, this is a Hungary within the German Empire! The empire can easily become a dual system in the future! This is quite unfavorable for the center and Prussia!" On the issue of preventing Bavaria from becoming bigger, Bavaria Grand Duke Deng is more determined than Little Maoqi and others!

"By the way, this is not to mention the Transcaucasus region, which can also add nearly 100,000 square kilometers of land to Bavaria, not to mention the oil fields in Baku. Don't you want to see it on the German flag? What about the two crowns?" the Grand Duke of Baden said like an angry lion.

"We have considered this situation and have a response strategy, but His Majesty did not adopt it. He chose a more direct method but with endless consequences." Xiao Maoqi said calmly.

"Does your General Staff have any countermeasures?" Archduke Baden said somewhat unexpectedly.

"Yes, this strategy is to get more land from the Russians! The Russians cannot survive this winter, and the Nomanov dynasty will inevitably collapse. After the collapse, even if they can form a new government in a short time, but The combat effectiveness of the army will definitely drop significantly. At this time, we can work hard to push the front eastward to gain more territory." Xiao Maoqi said.

This is the difference between the consideration of issues by the German military headed by Moltke and traditional politicians, such as the Kaiser and the Archduke of Baden.

What they think about is how to get as big a piece of the existing cake as possible. But what Little Moltke and others were thinking about was how to make this cake bigger and get a bigger piece. From a strategic point of view, Little Moltke and others were obviously much higher than the Kaiser and others.

In fact, in this war, Prussia only gained a lot more territory. Let’s not talk about anything else. The three Baltic countries can provide Prussia with 174,000 square kilometers of territory. Poland can also provide 40,000 square kilometers. In the direction of Belarus, , Prussia can still get at least half of the territory, which will be another 100,000 square kilometers. Adding in the part of the territory occupied by later Russia, it can be at least about 100,000 square kilometers. This area is 400,000 square kilometers. The area directly under Prussia's jurisdiction more than doubled! Compared with the land that Bavaria got, Prussia made more money. Therefore, Moltke and others believed that it was not a mistake to completely stalemate Bavaria for Poland's 40,000 square kilometers of land.

"The idea is very good, but we don't have that much military strength on the Eastern Front." The Archduke of Baden said.

"After the Bavarian Army enters the Western Front, we will have abundant strength. According to our estimation, if Ruprecht cooperates with us, then the Bavarian and Bohemian Army can mobilize at least 600,000 troops to enter the Western Front. line. In this case, even taking into account the need to fight against Britain and France, we can still deploy 300,000 troops to the Eastern Front without affecting the front line offensive. You know, Mackensen now only has 400,000 troops, plus 300,000 If so, after the collapse of the Russian government, our army will roam freely." Little Moltke revealed his overall plan.

"With other fronts guaranteed, Ruprecht can mobilize 600,000 troops to go to the thin line?!" The Grand Duke of Baden was no longer simply shocked at this time, but a little scared! If calculated this way, the total size of the Bavarian Army may be close to one million!

"As long as he is willing, there is no problem. Don't forget, the total population of Bavaria, Bohemia and Moravia is over 20 million, and the industrial strength has reached 70% of France. Even if 1.2 million troops are really concentrated, Is it difficult?" Xiao Maoqi is a professional soldier after all. He only needs to look at Ruprecht's industrial capabilities and population to estimate the number of troops that the opponent can recruit. In Xiao Maoqi's view, the number of troops under Ruprecht's command was still low compared to the entire country. However, they won every battle and pushed the Russians from Poland to Ukraine... So it’s not convenient to say anything.

However, if Ruprecht really feels threatened and begins deep mobilization, then once Prussia decides to use military means, the result will definitely be death for both the stone and the stone!

"Your Majesty the Grand Duke, think about it, if Prussia becomes a big country with an area of ​​900,000 square kilometers, then do we still need to be afraid of Bavaria, which has an area of ​​only 400,000 square kilometers? The absolute power gap between the two countries will be More and more." Little Maoqi said.

"Haha, it seems so." The Grand Duke of Baden found that he could not refute the other party, "But the too close relationship between Bavaria and the Austro-Hungarian Empire is a very serious hidden danger after all. This time, the Austro-Hungarian Empire may also become A large country with an area of ​​more than 1 million square kilometers.”

"Your Majesty the Grand Duke, you know that since the founding of the Empire, three generations of Kaisers have never stopped receiving accusations of treason in Bavaria. But what is the result? Can we directly accuse a country whose strength is close to that of France because of some hidden danger? The powerful kingdom takes action?" Little Maoqi sneered.
