Chapter 1599 True and False 1

"Hungary is in continuous turmoil, and the frontline legions are even more demoralized. The Austrian legion has transferred some elites back to the country to stabilize the situation, and the Bavarian legion has been partially transferred to Asia Minor. Although the Russians are already declining, there is no problem in ensuring the stability of the front line. , but if we want to continue to advance, I am afraid that it is somewhat insufficient. If we cannot continue to advance before October, then at least we will not be able to count on the oil fields in Baku." Xiao Maoqi said.

"What a pity." The Kaiser shook his head reluctantly and said. The Russian war situation has reached its final moment, and it will not make any difference if the Russians jump again. However, the final moment often determines the final harvest! It's a pity that we can't take advantage of your illness to take advantage of your life at this time. Of course, the Kaiser will not propose a plan to transfer troops from the Western Front to the Eastern Front at this time, because the distance is too far and it will take too long. !

The Kaiser now felt that the Bavarian Army seemed to be overstretched. At this time, the Bavarian Army's strength had been greatly dispersed. In the Balkans, the Bavarian Army had to deal with the British and Greece. In Ukraine, the Bavarian Army must consolidate the occupied areas while continuing to liquidate the remaining remnants of the Russian army. And now, in Asia Minor, the Bavarian Army has to fight an army-sized battle with the elite British and French armies.

The Kaiser was very clear about the total size of the Bavarian and Bohemian Army troops. They totaled no more than 700,000, including a lot of air force. By the way, speaking of air force, a considerable number of the elite Bavarian Air Force were assigned to it. Naval aviation. Well, very good, now the Bavarian Legion has changed from a fist to 5 open fingers. Such dispersed power would not put so much psychological pressure on the Kaiser!

That's right, in the Kaiser's view, the Bavarian Legion was like a double-edged sword. While it killed the enemy happily, it also had a major impact on Germany! This is especially true when Bavaria can fully exist as a European power after finalizing the sharing of interests between the two sides on the Eastern Front!

When he was free, the Kaiser would always look at the map of Europe and fall into deep thought, Bavaria, and to the east were Bohemia and Moravia. Further north is the part of Poland allocated to Bavaria, about 40,000 square kilometers, and then parts of Belarus and western Ukraine. These places form a bridge through Western Europe and Eastern Europe, forming a zone of 250,000 to 300,000 square kilometers, and these places will be under Bavaria's control.

In terms of area, it is close to the area of ​​Italy, and in terms of industrial power, it crushes Italy and is as close as France! The Kaiser had already vaguely felt that even if his plans were successful, in the future, the two-headed pattern in the Allied system would inevitably develop in the direction of the Big Three! Because, as far as Bavaria's power is concerned, it is difficult to treat it as a vassal!

Therefore, at this period, in the view of the Kaiser, the Eastern Front has reached its final stage. Next year, when the German armies on the Eastern and Western Fronts join forces and fight for several months, they will defeat Britain and France.

The Kaiser must consider killing the donkey and cooking the rabbit to death. Otherwise, what else? After hunting the rabbits, wouldn’t it be a waste to keep the dogs? It is also a threat to the owner. Of course, it is absolutely impossible for the Kaiser to directly eliminate other kingdoms like during the Kingdom Unification War. As for the only kingdom that was eliminated during the German Unification War, the Kingdom of Hanover was eliminated by Prussia without causing dissatisfaction among other small princes. The fundamental reason is that the royal family of this kingdom has the same blood as the British king... ..

In the end, the Kaiser came up with the idea of ​​​​consuming the strength of the Kingdom of Bavaria. At this time, the Bavarian Army was already fighting millions of enemy troops on three fronts. This was nothing. The fighting area covered a wide area and the logistics supplies were The difficulty is so great that the pressure faced by Bavaria has gradually surpassed that of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and has become the second pillar of the Allied Powers. In this case, even if Bavaria can win, it will probably consume a lot of national power, right? The Kaiser thought in his mind, of course, these words must not spread. Otherwise the impact would be too bad... There are some things you can do but not say!

"By the way, this is a request for help telegram from His Highness Ruprecht. He hopes that we can mobilize at least three armies from the Western Front to the Eastern Front or the Balkan Theater." Just when the Kaiser was thinking wildly, Xiao Mao Qi took out another telegram that the General Staff had just received today.

"We need to launch an attack on the Western Front, so there is some tension in the strength of the troops. Ruprecht will understand. In addition, haven't we already transferred the Von Seeckt Army on the Eastern Front to him?" The Kaiser This time I thought for a full 5 minutes before answering. To be honest, the prince's request was not excessive. Before the Allies landed in Asia Minor, Bavaria was only responsible for two theaters. That is, the Balkan theater and some theaters on the Eastern Front. Now, the Bavarian Army has an additional strategic direction. Logically speaking, the Kaiser should have plugged this loophole.

And judging from the requirements, they are actually not excessive. The current size of the German army on the Western Front is about 2.5 million. Even according to the standards at the beginning of the war, the three armies only had about 120,000 soldiers. The current German division on the Western Front will definitely be downsized, and having 100,000 people is enough to give you face. It's not that the Kaiser couldn't draw these troops. After all, during this period, the British and French allied forces also drew many troops from the Western Front.

As for whether the Kaiser is afraid that Türkiye will really be doomed? To be honest, the current Kaiser is not afraid. William II and Ruprecht have been dealing with each other for decades. Both sides can feel some of the other's weaknesses. William II knew that the prince's integrity was very high, and he would never give up on some key issues because of personal or grudges.

For example, in the current Turkish war, Turkey cannot fail, so William II believes that even if the Bavarian Legion takes advantage of the family fortune, Turkey will never be finished. So, if this is the case, why do we still have to draw the Prussian Army from the Western Front? Even if Russia's millions of troops encircled the country, could they not deal with the more than 200,000 British, French and colonial troops in Asia Minor? The Kaiser didn’t believe it!

"Actually, I think if three armies are in trouble, it's totally fine to provide one army." Xiao Maoqi thought for a while and said. As a senior executive, he knew some of the Kaiser's thoughts, so he planned to coordinate the relationship between them.

"No need, we are about to launch an offensive. Please explain this issue to Ruprecht clearly, and he will understand." The Kaiser said.
