Chapter 2361 Fermentation II
The Kaiser knew that Bavaria was now the strongest within the Reich. The Kaiser could gain an advantage only by joining forces with the Parliamentarians. But in the face of huge interests, the Kaiser still hesitated. He was always hesitant to weaken Bavaria and severely damage the parliamentary faction and then take a share of the pie, and now it seems that he is more inclined to the latter.
"Can we see the situation first?" Holweger asked.
"It's best to prepare immediately. After all, we don't know when the parliament will negotiate with Ruprecht." The Grand Duke of Baden still insisted on his opinion.
"Will this make us appear to be too weak? In fact, judging from Bavaria's behavior, they chose to attack the parliamentary faction, so it is very likely that there will be no reconciliation, because from the analysis of Crown Prince Ruprecht's personal behavior and character , he is a person who takes the interests of his allies into consideration. If Ruprecht chooses to reconcile with the parliamentary faction, then Crook and others may end badly. Therefore, if we are similar to the conditions proposed by the parliamentary faction, Ruprecht is likely to choose us instead of the parliamentary faction." Prime Minister Holweg thought for a while and said.
"Even if there is a reconciliation, it's okay for Crook and others to die well. Bavaria wants to arrange a few people easily. We have to be quick. If we operate properly, we may get extraordinary benefits this time! Even reconfirmed that the emperor is here. The status of the empire is possible. For example, if we are the ones who attack the parliamentary faction this time, then we will have a great advantage in terms of public opinion and public opinion. Even if we cannot directly negotiate peace with Bavaria, we must Show our attitude! Don't forget how Silesia entered the parliamentary faction at the beginning, isn't it because we hesitated on the issue of the Poles?" said the Grand Duke of Baden.
"You mean, take this opportunity to restore our lost provinces?" The Kaiser said excitedly, why did the Kaiser's authority decline? Isn't the root cause the division of Prussia? It is almost divided into two equal parts. If the current Prussia is still a unified Prussia, no matter how strong Bavaria is, it can only continue to be his second child! Therefore, the sensitivity to the territory made the Kaiser more inclined to the opinion of the Grand Duke of Baden.
"Will this alert Bavaria? The current situation is the most favorable for Bavaria, and they will not allow us to regain our advantage. If the crown prince feels a crisis, he may choose to cooperate with the parliamentary faction." Although The Grand Duke of Baden's speech was very tempting, but Prime Minister Holweger still prefers more conservative measures.
"So we have to negotiate, talk to Bavaria this time, what can we get. Ruprecht is good, that is, things that are decided will not change. He prefers to use conspiracy rather than conspiracy, so his politics His reputation is very good, and this is one of his strengths, although in politics, cunning and wisdom are synonyms, but no one likes to cooperate with capricious people." The Grand Duke of Baden said.
"Okay, stop talking, Grand Duke of Baden, you are in charge of contacting Bavaria, and start this plan as soon as possible. One day, I will take back all the territories that originally belonged to Prussia!" The Kaiser finally decided.
However, the Kaiser was a step too late in making this decision. Before the Grand Duke of Baden contacted Ruprecht, the parliament faction had already begun to implement remedial measures. Through various intelligence, Albert and others could naturally think of Bavaria's It must have played an important role in this matter, and under the current situation of being unstoppable, the right-wing and centrists of the Social Democratic Party decisively chose to compromise, and at the same time as the Kaiser held a meeting, the leader of the Social Democratic Party, Hasse, had already arrived in Luxembourg. Precht's official residence, launched a secret consultation.
"If we know this is the result,
Then the Social Democratic Party will never choose to go to war with you. "Looking at the calm and composed Bavarian crown prince opposite, Hase said with a complex expression. The Social Democrats can't win this war at all. Hase and others have realized that the Kaiser may betray. The reason is very simple. If the Kaiser is firm If you stand on the side of the parliament faction, then the Kaiser and the parliament faction will jointly suppress this matter from the very beginning, at least the current Kaiser’s Prussian newspapers will not hype this matter all day long! The parliament faction has also sent people to contact Germany Emperor, but the other party's answer can be described as prevarication. In this case, how can the parliamentary faction, which is alone and alone, deal with the attacks from inside and outside at the same time?
Therefore, this time Hassai's attitude is very positive, and coming here is to admit "mistakes". Then ask the other party to let the parliament send a horse, and other things are easy to talk about, whether it is the distribution of compensation or other requirements, you can talk about it! This is what is meant by the so-called admitting mistakes and standing at attention when being beaten.
"We can cooperate on compensation, increase the proportion of Austria-Hungary or Bavaria, and reduce the share of old Prussia. If it is convenient, state your conditions, and believe me, if the Social Democratic Party fails this time, then the biggest loss It will definitely be Bavaria, and your country will lose its current detached status. The empire's current appearance is entirely the result of your deliberate guidance." Hasai continued.
"So, does your Excellency think that the fundamental purpose of our big move is to pay compensation?" Ruprecht asked.
"Isn't it? Other than that, I don't think there is any major conflict between the parliamentarians and you. After all, we will not interfere in Bavaria's internal affairs, and you are not interested in the correctness of the central government of the empire." Hasse asked.
"So you think so, well, let's discuss this matter today. We have a lot of time, one afternoon and one night. We can seriously discuss the role of the political party system within the empire, and Your mistake," Ruprecht said.
"Yes, it was your mistake. Some people said that during the critical period of civil strife, I was inclined to the Kaiser, because I asked to guarantee the status of the Kaiser. In the end, I prevented the Kaiser's crown from falling into dust. But in fact, I also There is no plan to wipe out the Social Democratic Party, not only because you need to contain the Kaiser, but more importantly, I think you will also have a certain positive effect on the German Empire." The crown prince said with a smile.
After hearing what the crown prince said, Hassey couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It seems that this time, the crown prince does not intend to completely kill the Social Democratic Party as a whole, but for some individuals, it seems that the crown prince is still planning to liquidate it. But judging from the Crown Prince's attitude, the target of the liquidation is not himself?
