Chapter 1841: Sher and Mackensen II
"Because His Royal Highness's decision is correct! The navy has guaranteed the stability of the northern port area with a neutral identity. If we choose to lean towards either side, the northern port area will face a bloody storm! This is for the supply of the empire. It is very deadly, but you should know that even when the domestic situation was the most chaotic, we did not stop the supply of materials and food to the Western Front. The fastest updated navy did not have any selfishness in doing these things!" Admiral Scheer Said.
"And to be honest, I am very disgusted with some of the actions of His Majesty the Kaiser, such as the Poles! Not long ago, the Polish armed forces actually entered the inherent territory of Prussia! And the Kaiser did not care about this, it is simply It is the shame of the empire! And in the end, it was the Bavarian Army that eliminated the Polish armed forces, so I would like to ask, General Mackensen, as the commander-in-chief of the East Prussian Army, are you not ashamed?" Admiral Scheer Said dissatisfied.
"I... I didn't have the strength to solve this problem at the time." General Mackensen blushed and said in embarrassment. In fact, the combat effectiveness of the Polish Legion is much worse than that of Albert's Parliamentary Army. Regardless of the fact that there are more than 20,000 armed personnel, in fact, a German brigade can easily rub its opponents on the ground. Although Mackensen couldn't bring back a large number of troops, it was no problem to get a brigade back. However, just when Mackensen wanted to act, a secret message from the Kaiser made him stop the operation.
Although Mackensen followed the order, in his heart, he was still very disgusted with this order, and he also had opinions on the Kaiser. And this time when General Scheer raised it, Mackensen was not easy to refute.
"The most important thing is that the attitude of the Kaiser to allow the Poles to establish an independent country has set a very bad precedent for the entire empire. General Mackensen, you have been fighting on the Eastern Front. You should know that in our How many foreigners are there in the newly occupied lands? There are tens of millions of Russians, a large number of Baltics, Poles, Ukrainians and Cossacks! Tell me, if one day the Poles gain a relatively independent status through riots, What about the others? Could it be that we have fought bloody battles for so long just to help them become independent?"
"The Kaiser is too obsessed with power and strategy. For the so-called safety and superiority in his heart, he did not hesitate to damage the behavior of the entire empire. When encountering major events or impulsiveness or hesitation, he never made the right choice. The parliamentary party The guy is not a good thing, but at the same time, I don’t think the Kaiser’s ability is suitable for ruling the future German Empire, because after this war, the Empire will become a big country with an area of more than 1 million ordinary kilometers. We have harvested enough At the same time as the dividends of war, it will also make domestic problems more complicated. If the empire is still infighting at this time, then this is simply a disaster!" Admiral Scheer said with a heartbroken heart.
The term political correctness has different meanings for different people. For example, for the Kaiser, suppressing Bavaria to ensure Prussia’s absolute advantage is political correctness, but for Admiral Scheer and Mackensen, the Kaiser’s suppression The behavior was a political mistake, because Admiral Scheer's allegiance was to the entire empire, not the Prussian royal family, and General Mackensen, although a Prussian, also believed that it was wrong to do these things in wartime. The so-called congeniality is precisely because Admiral Scheer and General Mackensen have the most basic consensus on these matters, the two sides can sit down and negotiate.
"So, Your Excellency, Admiral, do you mean to just sit back and watch the civil strife in the empire continue?" Mackensen said with some dissatisfaction. "It's an escape, it doesn't solve the problem."
"Actually, His Majesty the Emperor is already able to hold peace talks with the Berlin Parliament. The Parliament faction cannot win,
And if the army wanted to suppress the Parliament faction, wouldn't it destroy a dozen cities? Think about it, General Mackensen, the entire Social Democratic Party has nearly a million members, if you want to use violence to punish, then tell me, how many members of the Social Democratic Party do you plan to kill? And how many innocent people will be buried with them? And all you do is show your allegiance to a leader who isn't right for you. "
"I really want to know how cheap and bloody this kind of loyalty is!" After Admiral Scheer finished speaking, he stared at Mackensen on the opposite side. Looking forward to his answer.
"Maybe we can suppress some of the diehards, and just arrest the rest." Mackensen said with some embarrassment. Crook and others on the western front didn't want to get too much blood from their own people on their hands, but The same is true for Mackensen. As a person with a conscience, no one wants to do such a thing. Now, he can only hypnotize himself again and again, saying that such a thing is not a big deal. It's just to punish a few culprits.
"You are not His Majesty the Emperor. It is hard to say how many people will be involved in this matter, but one thing is certain is that Albert and others have no way out. Tens of thousands of social democrats who are with him and who are attached Their second-line army also has no way out, if they choose to suppress, let’s not talk about whether we can enter Paris, we are afraid that we will have to fight a siege of Berlin first!” Admiral Scheer said sharply.
"And on a deeper level, so what if the Kaiser wiped out the parliamentary faction? The Social Democratic Party has had a foundation for decades. Even if the superstructure is destroyed, their members and the people affected by it, these people may not be There are tens of millions of people! And tens of millions of people have hatred for the imperial government, what a terrible thing!" Looking at the stunned Mackensen, Admiral Scheer continued.
"And that's not the worst thing! The worst thing is that the seemingly bloody and thorough cleanup can't solve the problem fundamentally. Do you really think that the Social Democratic Party is the biggest black hand of the rebellion? You are wrong! Without those big capitalists and banks Where can they get enough funds and equipment to arm themselves? How can they get on the line with the high-ranking Junker nobles, and even buy Hindenburg? They are the biggest behind-the-scenes driving force of this coup!"
"But for these people, the Kaiser has nothing to do! Because these people have penetrated their tentacles into various important departments of the empire, and the Kaiser is also closely related to these people. Look at the assets and shares of the Kaiser, you should understand , these people are too big to lose their tails, and it’s okay to rectify one or two, but it’s impossible to completely eliminate them. This failure is nothing to them, and maybe this scene will happen again one day. Until they reach their own Purpose! In this world, money is sometimes more powerful than guns!"
