Chapter 4: The script is wrong!
"Ready? Sir Arnaden Hauser. My uncle, Prince Leopold Maximilian Joseph Maria A**ff, was a stern and wise soldier. He was also an artilleryman and commanded the Bavarian 3rd Artillery Regiment in the Franco-Prussian War, and any omission on your part will be discovered by His Excellency the Prince and will have a direct impact on our future plans. Ruprecht looked at the pocket watch in his hand, and the hand was already pointing to half past two in the afternoon, half an hour at most, and the self-sufficient people would come.
"Your Royal Highness, everything is ready, and there will definitely be no problems with the newly produced oil-type hydraulic retreat device, at least not today." Arnaden Hauser, a German engineer who had just been awarded the title of knight and could barely be considered a nobleman, wiped the sweat from his head and said. This was a crucial step for him to reach the pinnacle of his life. This noble man promoted himself and gave him this opportunity to directly face the top of the army, he naturally wanted to catch him, but what made him feel ashamed was that he could not completely solve the leakage problem of the hydraulic device for the time being, so he really sweated.
"Your Highness, have we gone too far, the other party is the Prince of Bavaria, your uncle. This behavior is very impolite. Viscount Schmidt, the chief of the guard next to him, whispered.
"You should think of it as a drill." There was a hint of apprehension in the seemingly bland answer. Lao Tzu also wanted to observe the new weapons with his uncle normally, but some technical problems have not been solved, such as the leakage of hydraulic equipment, such as the ablation and overheating of the barrel of the machine gun. The former is naturally due to sealing and force problems, while the latter is caused by excessive energy after the machine gun is replaced with a new smokeless propellant.
If you have enough time, you don't want to do a half-baked project, but your uncle, Prince Leopold, is not on call! People have time to come and see if you are giving you face! As the most capable general in the Bavarian royal family, who has participated in wars, made meritorious contributions, and is highly regarded by the public, if you can convince him, if nothing else, at least the problem of changing clothes in the Bavarian army can be solved!
In extraordinary times, how to reflect the superiority of new weapons and hide various loopholes is a very difficult problem. For example, when the new hydraulic rapid-fire gun is firing, what do you say if it suddenly leaks? For example, what should I do if the machine gun overheats after a while after being replaced with a new type of propellant? It's all a nuisance. So, the traverser who racked his brains thought of such a way.
"Your Highness, the prince and his cavalry have arrived!" An officer next to him pointed to the hill in the distance and suddenly erected a red flag and said, which means that the guests have reached a distance of about 8 kilometers from here today, and there is not much time left for themselves! 、
"When you see the cavalry, first fire the empty cartridge with 2 guns, and if there is a malfunction, immediately pull up the other 2 guns before His Royal Highness arrives, remember, shoot 2 guns before pulling them up." Fooling his uncle with his subordinates, Ruprecht also feels a lot of pressure! "Sometimes, in order to achieve the goal, it takes any means, well, that's all!" This is how the traverser comforts himself in his heart.
"Your Royal Highness, in order to prevent some accidents, we must ensure that you and your subordinates push off all the actual ammunition in the rifle, there may be some surprises in the next situation, but I can guarantee that all this is safe, this is the royal hunting ground, and there is an army outside to take care of security, this is just a drill." In order to prevent accidents, Cheap Dad finally let his chief butler, Count Schelling, be responsible for communicating with the prince. And along the way, Schelling has said no less than 3 times, and he sees that the big drama is about to begin. He was still sweating.
"That little guy is getting more and more slippery! A person who was upright before the age of ten, why did he have so many weird ideas after the age of ten? Prince Leopold smiled slightly, and not only ordered the soldiers of the Bavarian Cavalry Division to push off all the bullets, but also handed the saber to those who did not participate in the exercise.
"It's a good thing that my dear nephew wants to learn the art of war in advance, why don't I support it? In order to let him fully experience the scene on the real battlefield, I made some special arrangements, I hope he can like it! A cruel smile appeared on the Prince's lips.
"Count Schelling, I remember you should have fought in the Franco-Prussian War, right? You should have been a cavalry company commander back then, was that right? The prince said thoughtfully.
"That's right, Your Highness, when my company, under the cover of your artillery, broke through the positions of the French. And for this he was awarded the Order of the Order of Bavaria. Count Schelling was slightly stunned, and thought, what tricks does this prince want to play now?" Now that it's time to exercise, you and your cavalry need to go into battle! ”
"Very well, in that case, then I hope you can be the arbiter of this exercise." The prince had no intention of asking the earl for advice, and said in an almost commanding tone. "I'm still waiting, as an exercise, how can I do it without artillery? Two of my artillery batteries will soon be back"
"But beforehand, you didn't say that you would bring artillery to this exercise!" Count Schelling said in surprise. "His Royal Highness only has 1 artillery company and an infantry company on his side, while you have two full cavalry companies and 2 artillery companies under your command, which is unfair in itself!"
"If this is a war, will the enemy tell you about his strength? Or will it remind you that the enemy has arrived? The prince smiled and pointed to the red flag erected on the hill in the distance. War is cruel, and I need to make him experience the cruelty of war before that! After speaking, he ignored the stunned earl, and began to move forward slowly with his troops.
"Your Highness, it seems that the situation has changed a little, if the flag is correct, His Royal Highness seems to have brought some other troops in addition to the cavalry! Oh my God, he really did think of this as a drill! Viscount Schmidt picked up the binoculars and looked at the signal flag on the hillside in the distance, and said in surprise.
"Holy! Play big! Ruprecht wiped a cold sweat, he now had a feeling of being targeted by a beast! If there is anyone he is most reluctant to face among the generals from the German royal family and nobles on the exercise ground, it is definitely his own uncle! This dude is so fierce! It is not an exaggeration to say that it is even the most capable of fighting among European royal families!
He fought with Prussia in the Austro-Prussian War, commanded an artillery regiment in the Franco-Prussian War, and these are nothing! The most NB thing is that this powerful uncle served as the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Front of the Allies in the middle and late stages of World War 1! He subdued Russia and signed the famous "Brest-Litovsk Peace Treaty". Although it was not carried out in the end, this dude still did what Napoleon and the mustache did not do - defeat Russia! In the end, he was awarded the Grand Iron Cross, Germany's highest medal of honor in World War I, and only five people received this medal, one for Kaiser Wilhelm II and one for Mackensen. The other two are familiar to everyone, Hindenburg and Ludendorff! The last one is him! Such a master, Ruprecht is not afraid of it!
"Send a signal to the man on the hill and ask him to try to tell His Royal Highness the Prince, because things have changed, and let him give me an hour to prepare." After Ruprecht finished speaking, the civil official in charge of the record next to him almost didn't stop, this is all a drill, has there been such a thing?
"He didn't follow the routine first, so he wrote like this! Then send it out! Ruprecht said through gritted teeth! This old fox! Brother will splash your face with blood even if he loses! ”
