Chapter 2803 Black Wing Knights 1
"Every knight who is loyal to the Hohenzollern family and the Empire, I, Crown Prince Wilhelm, welcome you on behalf of the Royal Family and the Viceroyalty of Poland! Here, we will witness the arrival of a historical moment, and we will relive our As they once swore, the nobles were loyal to the royal family, and the royal family protected the nobles!" In the General Palace of the Polish Reichstag of the Kingdom of Prussia, facing hundreds of nobles and officers who came from East Prussia and other places, Crown Prince William spoke with a passionate tone. Passionate and enchanting words were spoken from a high platform.
"I have always believed that the Junker nobles and the Imperial Officer Corps were the fundamental forces for the rise and development of the German Empire. Together with your predecessors, we rose up in the dense forests and plains of East Prussia. We defeated the Poles, defeated Napoleon, and The Prussian black eagle flag was hoisted throughout the German Empire! In the end, we excluded Austria from the empire's system, and even the southern states that had been independent for hundreds of years finally succumbed to the scepter of the empire. Come on, this is the result of our joint efforts!”
"We have protected each other until now! Together we challenge the most powerful enemies and suppress all opponents. Under the guidance of the royal family, our sabers are invincible! We are the masters of the new world. However, the external enemies have not defeated us. , but the traitors within the empire almost made us doomed! After a hard fight, with your support, we have at least preserved a considerable part of our interests."
"However, we should see that the current empire is no longer the empire before us! The authority of the Hohenzollern imperial power has declined significantly, your vital interests have been violated, and those upstarts are wielding big sticks to show off their power in front of us! Those speculators and the pagans in the south are eyeing the important weapons of the empire! Once upon a time, the empire based on the Hohenzollern family and the Junker nobles and based on Protestantism was so united and powerful! But now, we only have A weak government, Berlin wants to do something but still depends on other people's faces! This is the shame of all of us for hundreds of years! We won the war but lost the power!"
"Everyone! I want to ask you, should we take back everything we lost?" Crown Prince William said loudly.
"Yes! The glory of the Junker nobles and the sanctity of the imperial power should not be violated!" The audience shouted thunderously.
"Are you willing to unite with me, the Crown Prince of the Hohenzollern family, the future Kaiser, and the head of the family?" the Crown Prince said again.
"Our swords will be swung for you, and our blood will be swayed for you! All for the empire!" The atmosphere in the audience reached a climax!
"I, first of all, on behalf of the royal family and myself, would like to express my gratitude to you for your loyalty. I guarantee that all of you and your family will be rewarded in the future! And now, all of you are already members of the Black Wing Knights. ! And in the future, the Black Wing Knights will definitely replace the Black Eagle Knights and become the top existence of the empire! As a witness to this sacred contract, and as my response to your goodwill, everything will be revealed in a few days. Later, it was proved that starting from me, starting from the Consulate General of Poland,
This will become our common home! "Amidst cheers and applause, the Crown Prince completed this speech that was very important to him!
The carnival lasted until 11:30 p.m., and after all the activities were over, the crown prince did not rest. In an office in the Governor's Palace, the crown prince and his staff were discussing future matters.
"It seems that my father still favors me." The Crown Prince said to himself as he stood in front of the huge map of Germany in his office. After the war, the new territory of the Kingdom of Prussia was mainly composed of four parts. The former Prussian Poland and part of the later Belarus formed the current Polish Viceroyalty. This area covers an area of 40,000 square kilometers, including the former Russian territory. Northern part of Poland and Warsaw. The place was eventually handed over by the Kaiser to the Crown Prince.
There is also a governorate, the Baltic Governorate, which is located further north and was handed over to the Crown Prince's brother, Prince Albert. The third area is the eastern border area, mainly the border area with Russia. Because of the hostile relationship between the two countries, this area was handed over to Mackensen. To be honest, Mackensen had some conflicts with the Kaiser on some matters. After the falling out, this famous general in the war should have been idle at home. But I don’t know how the southern Kingdom of Bavaria operates. In the end, it was still retained in the army and was responsible for the military and political affairs of a military region.
As for the last region, it is the Transcaucasus region belonging to the Kingdom of Prussia, where there are rich products. But this part was firmly grasped by the Kaiser, and no one gave it to him! The person stationed there was former German Prime Minister Hollweg! One of the Kaiser's most loyal servants.
The crown prince was quite satisfied with this result. The Transcaucasus region is too far away from the core of Germany. Although it has products, it is unfamiliar with the place and cannot cultivate its own strength. The economic conditions in the eastern border area are very bad, and it faces certain military pressure, which is not suitable for its own development. Although the Baltic Viceroyalty is no smaller than our own, it also has ethnic issues, and it is still a bit far from Berlin, and its economic and infrastructure conditions are not as good as those of our own Polish Viceroyalty.
Look at the pocket kingdom in your hands now. It is larger than the Kingdom of Württemberg before the war. It has sound infrastructure and good agricultural development. After all, this is part of the Pod Plain. Industry is also considered okay, because this was also an important heavy industry base in Russia. And to the north is East Prussia, the land of the Hohenzollern family! Some nobles are fully interested in the land and resources of the Polish Viceroyalty, and the crown prince can use his power to facilitate them in exchange for their loyalty!
The coup during the war left a very deep impression on the crown prince! The body can be said to be scarred. When the entire Hohenzollern royal family thought they had won and were preparing to reach a new peak, the coup of the Social Democratic Party almost caused their crown to fall. In the eyes of the Crown Prince, there were too many people. Betrayed them! The officers on the front line, the parliament and the government, and Bavaria in the south, all count! They are all adding insult to injury behind your back! This incident made the Crown Prince extremely insecure! He has never been so paranoid about the power and strength he holds as he is now!
