Chapter 661: It's Settled
And what about the Bavarian Army? Although they strengthened an armored battalion, that is, there were about 50 guns of various calibers, but the number of artillery belonging to their own divisions declined, although the quality was improved, but there were 12 heavy guns on the Prussian side, and the artillery of the Bavarian regiment of more than 6 tons could not exceed this number. www.biquge.info Then Prussia's 105mm howitzer and 77mm rapid-fire gun could be matched in any proportion, while Bavaria could not. Moltke Jr. estimated that Bavaria, counting the tubes of assault guns, the number of artillery guns above the medium caliber does not exceed 100 by visual inspection, and its own side has a quantitative advantage of 4%. There is no gap in quality. The number of troops increased by 10,000 .......
And then Moltke Jr. wondered, how could the Prussian legion lose in such a situation?
"So can we first look at the bombers that the Bavarian Corps is equipped with?" Hindenburg asked.
"Sorry, due to time constraints, we didn't have any itinerary for you. Now that the exercise is about to begin, shouldn't you immediately go back to Berlin to report and prepare after we have finished talking here? Ruprecht said, the pirated Gotha bomber naturally can't be seen by these people, see, then pay it back?
"But we will eventually leave a group of liaison personnel, and Prince Albert and Ludendorff will be responsible for the liaison of relevant parties, and there should still be time for this, right?" Moltke Jr. said.
"Anyway, after dozens of days, you can know everything, so why be in such a hurry? Even if I leave the Kaiser with a surprise, is that okay? Although Ruprecht was smiling, everyone knew that it was completely useless, and the other party did not agree!
"We can also send fighter and reconnaissance aircraft? How about 30? There are also observation balloons and airships. "Little Moltke is like a merchant.
"Yes, but there are up to 2 airships. After all, now there are not a few airships in the entire German Army, are they? The prince thought for a moment and said.
"Then if the fighters of the two sides meet, how will the winner be judged?" Prince Albert said.
"The problem? I wonder what weapons are now equipped with Prussian planes? When the other party asked this, Ruprecht was also a little wilted.
"A machine gun, a 7.92mm machine gun fixed to the front of the aircraft, fed using a drum." Moltke Jr. said.
"I think this question of victory and defeat can be decided before the exercise, and the distance can be shortened to 500 meters after entering the rear of the enemy fighter at 6 o'clock. And hold for 20 seconds to win. On the plus side, I think if it's right, your odds of winning are no more than 30%. ”
"Why?" Moltke Jr. said.
"First of all, you can't fire in the front direction, because the front is a propeller, and you haven't made a coordinator, which is a huge disadvantage in itself, and our fighter weapons are 2 7.92mm machine guns or 12.7mm machine guns. There is a coordinator. The prince said with a smile.
"Well, we need to talk about it again." Moltke Jr. did not make an immediate decision.
"With the exception of that bomber, we have already touched all of Bavaria's cards. Shouldn't there be any problem, right? I think it can be agreed that, of course, with regard to the hunting grounds of His Majesty the Emperor, His Majesty's consent is still required. Back at the hotel, Moltke Jr. immediately called an internal meeting.
"I think it's okay, after all, we don't have much time, if we raise counter-arguments at this time, and then the two sides fight again, our 1907 annual exercise may become a winter exercise." Hindenburg also said with some concern.
The Kaiser suddenly convulsed and decided to let the Bavarian legion play, if Bavaria did not agree, it would naturally not be possible, and the Kaiser had no other way than to curse the other party for two sentences at most, after all, it was a short notice. The Prussian General Staff did not have the power to command military in peacetime. Then in the end, only Moltke and others are the ones who bear the blame, and the reason is also very good, and the work efficiency is low. And everyone here is unwilling to carry this pot.
"Since everyone has no opinion, then we will pass it." Moltke glanced at the venue and said when he saw that there was no objection.
"Well, we are now divided into two parts, and General Hindenburg and Mackensen and I will immediately return to East Prussia to prepare, and Ludendorff and Prince Albert will be in charge of the Bavarian side of communication. Move fast, and we don't have much time left. Moltke finally said.
Little Moltke is telling the truth, there is no problem for 30,000 troops to enter the exercise ground, but it also takes a long time to prepare, and this time Little Moltke also plans to form a high-mobility corps, not to mention anything else, all artillery and ammunition supplied need to be towed by trucks, not to mention, this thing is really good, a 210mm gun is directly taken away by a 3-ton truck. However, a single division will certainly not be able to make up these vehicles, and they need to be transferred from various departments, and if they are allocated, it will take time, and coordination will also take time. The entire tactical campaign system has to be reformulated, this is all time, and Moltke really can't afford to delay.
"Agreed?" Prince Leopold said as he walked into the prince's study.
The next day Moltke agreed, and on the fourth day, the Kaiser called and said that he could temporarily provide the land, and all the problems were solved. Just waiting to play. The prince said with a smile.
"You don't have a score in mind, do you? It's a reluctant smile, but unfortunately, you don't have a chance to regret it now. Prince Leopold said.
"Don't regret it, uncle is going to see my brilliant victory this time?" The prince asked.
"Of course, not only me, but also your father, and the Duke of Württemberg, Alberecht, has returned, who is likely to command an army group in wartime." The prince said, snapping his fingers.
"As for the likes of Crown Prince Wilhelm, Kruger, House, Heilingen, they all go back. These old guys and little ones don't have a single fuel-efficient lamp. ”
"Hehe, plus the group of people from Austria-Hungary, when World War I broke out, the commanders of the Allied army group were basically all there, which is very face-saving." Ruprecht said in his heart after handing another list to Prince Leopold.
"Have you started preparing?" Leopold asked.
"Of course, our side is ready, just wait for the news from the Prussian railway, and then we can load the car and leave." The prince said.
"You seem to have guessed this outcome a long time ago?"
"Sure, if you think about it, what both the Kaiser and the Austrian Emperor want to see, the people below will have to achieve their goals no matter what. And we all paid such a big price at the beginning, and when it comes to the success of the test, we are not too much to tremble, are we? Ruprecht replied.
"So, you replaced all the half-tracks in the Lao Tzu Army?" Prince Leopold said angrily.
"Didn't I say it all? It's not bad for that trembling. The prince said.
