The Rise of the Empire

Do you know the current situation in Türkiye? Do you know how many people were working on my previous project in Turkey? Do you know the consequences of the so-called paralysis of the state machine? The data provided by Sudan is inaccurate. In fact, Sudan's control in Asia Minor has also declined significantly. Although this is the core gathering area of ​​the Turkish nation, there are still a large number of Arabs and Kurds. The Sudanese government's control of the region has been reduced to urban-centered areas. You are not out to defeat the opposition, but to rebuild a broken country. "The crown prince said seriously. He looked like you were in trouble.

"Is this preparation for blackmail?" The Crown Prince was very confused. On the one hand, he vaguely felt that what the Crown Prince said was right, because Prince Albert had told him before that resolving the situation in Turkey would be very troublesome. From a rational point of view, what the prince said makes more sense. If 150,000 troops can be completed in 3 months, this effort is really nothing to Bavaria! On the other hand, he was a little unwilling. After all, what was there to say? You have to walk the road you choose with tears in your eyes! He had no way out, not even the Kaiser could allow defeat.

"Okay, just think that I have said too much. The conditions you proposed are very consistent with the requirements of this plan. I can guarantee that His Majesty the Emperor will agree to it. So if you have no other requirements, can we break up the meeting?" the crown prince said.

"Hold the grass! Is this the end?" The Crown Prince felt a drop of cold sweat fall from his head. Many times, there is no choice, which makes people more comfortable, because there is only one way to go! But if you have a choice, and each of the choices seems very uncomfortable, then you will be very confused. How should you answer? Should we agree to adjourn the meeting and prepare to meet in Berlin tomorrow, or should we continue to test things out? None of them seem to be good choices!

On the one hand, the Crown Prince also has doubts about the plan and is unwilling to let it go. On the other hand, if the wrangling continues, let alone the bickering between the two parties, the Crown Prince may not be interested in continuing negotiations with him. . You may not even be able to find anyone by then, so how can you go back and recover? In fact, at the suggestion of Prince Albert, the original plan had been changed before it was finally released. The logistics and engineering troops were increased by 10,000 people, and the time was extended by one month. I thought it was enough, but the crown prince pointed out that the Sudan's control over Turkey was already very weak, and this was very troublesome! After all, helping others solve rebellions and reintegrating a country are two different concepts!

As for whether the Crown Prince believes what Crown Prince Ruprecht said, will he regard these words as alarmist? The crown prince still believed it, because in his opinion, it would not be beneficial for the crown prince to lie on this matter. After all, his army would soon return to the country, and if he lied, he would soon be exposed. Moreover, if the stationing time is extended, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, not Bavaria, will benefit. Although the two have a special relationship, Austria will not give the base use fees and logistics procurement costs to Bavaria, right?

"I feel like we have been cheated?" Prince Baden said in his heart. He vaguely felt that the Turkish issue was really a big trap. Bavaria's delay was not simply due to threats, but was really difficult to handle. And when Prussia expressed its willingness to take over,

Bavaria threw the blame directly on Prussia...

At the critical moment, Prince Albert, who was good at doing things, spoke: "The key to the problem is to quickly deal with the rebels. Therefore, our attack goal is very clear, that is, to quickly land in several selected ports in Turkey, and then move towards the rebels." We launched a quick assault in the direction of the main force of the army, just like the plan we made to blitz the French. However, it is obvious that the Turks will not be as capable as the French, nor can they build a strong defense line. As long as we can If their main armed forces are eliminated, then it won’t be a problem all together.”

"The Turks cannot defeat us, but what if they choose to retreat? Evacuate from here all the way to the Mesopotamia and leave some cavalry to harass your supply lines. How far is it from the port to the Mesopotamia? At least here With a territory the size of Germany before the war, how can you ensure a long supply line?" The crown prince stood up, walked to a map, and pointed with the putter in his hand to the current confrontation location between the Sultan and Pasha's armies. This place will be used in later generations. The border area between Syria and Turkey, and then pointed to the two river basins.

"Maybe the situation is not so bad after all," the Crown Prince said.

"The actual situation will only be worse than we imagined! Just imagine, during the war, if we wanted to kill countries like Greece, Serbia or Romania, how many troops would we need to use? To fight Romania, Bavaria alone would have to invest a lot of troops. to 150,000. And now, you actually want to solve the chaos in Turkey with only 150,000 front-line troops. What a naive idea." The crown prince sneered.

The Crown Prince's words made everyone present feel a kind of pressure, because in their opinion, there was no reason for the Crown Prince to say such words simply to ridicule them? As for using retreat as advance and allowing the Kaiser to re-hand over command? This is impossible. If the crown prince wants to do this, then he should not directly hand over the command, but should apply pressure first and then negotiate conditions. But now that the agreement has been signed, it's too late.

"All of you think that I am a selfish person. You think that I use blackmail to gain more benefits in some things. You think that your own level is high enough and you can do everything well. You think that the war is over After that, the entire earth will succumb to the will of the empire. This idea is too childish. You know? Since Bismarck left, I can't find anyone in Berlin who can completely open up and discuss some things." The Crown Prince said .

"You have taken over this matter, so well, you can do it yourself. Bavaria has the ability to protect its own interests. You don't need to worry about this. What I just said is a reminder. If you are not in your position, I have done my best to pursue my political goals, and the stage is ready for you, so you can perform on your own." After that, the crown prince stood up and said: "The meeting is dismissed!"
