Chapter 611: Soft Knife 4
Although His Royal Highness **** may not be able to swallow Hungary as a whole, for areas beyond the control of the Hungarian government, His Highness **** still considers eating some at the right time! And if nothing else, the Hungarian government will definitely lose a lot of territory, even if there are no external reasons such as Poland, Romania, and Yugoslavia, Hungary, which does not even have half of the population, will definitely not be able to control so many places.

It's hard to say how much territory Hungary will occupy after independence, but one thing is certain that they will never go to war again, unlike Austria, Hungary's power is weaker, and the domestic situation is more complicated, so how can they continue the foreign war if they can't handle domestic affairs? Therefore, if it is not unexpected, Hungary will withdraw from the war, and for this result, His Royal Highness **** is also willing to accept it, after withdrawing from the war, His Royal Highness **** will not have to worry about feeding the tens of millions of people in Hungary.
Of course, at this time, after withdrawing from the war, it is absolutely impossible to participate in the distribution of war dividends, at least important parts cannot participate in the distribution, such as Russian Poland, Belarus and other places. However, if Hungary has the resources to spare, it is possible to get a piece of the Yugoslav pie. For such a fanatical country as Yugoslavia, the prince had no idea in a short time, not that he could not fight, but that it was too troublesome ....... Considering that Yugoslavia's extreme troop defeated Austria-Hungary in World War I, and Tito in World War II, I don't want to touch these troubles.
For the prince, the future Kingdom of Hungary was at worst a neutral country with no threat, and the best outcome was only an ally that could be icing on the cake, which was determined by Hungary's sad national conditions, Austria-Hungary's industry was relatively poor, and these industries were mainly concentrated in Austria and the Czech Republic, Hungary played more of the role of an agricultural country, and such a country was destined to play little role in the future competition, except for manpower, resources were very limited.
"Aren't you afraid that what I'm going to say tonight will leak out?" Countess Laura said meaningfully.
"I can assure you that during my absence, Kaiser Wilhelm had no less than ten reports on the preparation of a rebellion in Bavaria on his desk. Or rather, there have always been people in Prussia who are dissatisfied with us, but what is the result? There is no impact for us. You could have said it. Rupresit said unconcernedly. And have you ever wondered what the members of the Imperial Diet or the capitalists would do if they knew about you? In a way, I just went with the flow, and even in some ways I had the same purpose as the Prussian capitalists. ”
"And I think that you will not be able to swear allegiance to anyone other than me and the Hungarians, and your family, and the Hungarians, will not accept you, because what you have done in the last few years has been tied to Austria, and Prussia is unlikely to make a higher bid, and from a rational point of view, you will not get a higher position and power elsewhere than here. What's more, we don't have an essential conflict either, Hungary wants independence, I can allow it, and even I wish Hungary was independent. ”
"If nothing else, in ten years I will probably call you King of Bavaria and Regent of Austria?" By the way, maybe there will be a guardian of Ukraine to be added, right? Countess Laura said in a playful tone.
"What do you mean?" His Royal Highness said with a slight flush.
"Isn't it best for you to have that Countess Ajelina in charge of Ukraine in the future? Germany can't eat all of Ukraine, so the best outcome is naturally to choose someone you can trust to help you take control of this most important part of Eastern Europe. Don't tell me you didn't arrange it that way. Laura paused, and then said, "Have you not discussed this with Her Highness Mary?" ”
"Change the subject!" Rupresit's face tightened, and he said decisively.
"Well, if you can figure this out, I hope that one day I too will be given an unbetrayable guarantee that Her Highness Mary and your descendants will be able to get Bavaria-Austria, and that you and Countess Ajelina will be able to get Ukraine. I'm not very demanding. Countess Laura smiled charmingly.
"I'll consider your wishes." Rupresit's face flushed slightly.
"Okay, then, what are you going to do next?" Countess Laura did not dwell further on this issue, after all, it was not yet time to discuss these matters.
"We have money now, on the Prussian side, naturally Wilhelm II decides how to spend it, and we in Bavaria already have a plan, but Emperor Fritz does not seem to have a relatively complete plan, I think, as the son-in-law of His Majesty the Emperor, and the most qualified ally, we should help Austria-Hungary, especially Austria, to improve its combat effectiveness." His Royal Highness said without hesitation. Although Bavaria is now mixing very well, far exceeding the level of the same period in history, it is not to mention that it is not comparable with Prussia, even with Austria-Hungary, and if you want to quickly solve the Eastern Front, Austria-Hungary still needs strength.
Of course, you can also get reinforcements from Prussia, but these Prussian troops are not easy to grasp after all, and Prussia wants to transfer these troops, and His Royal Highness **** has no way. At the beginning of the war, there were more than 200,000 troops, referring to the ratio of less than 4 million troops and more than 60 million people in Germany, it would be good for Bavaria to save 600,000 troops. And relying on this, it is obviously impossible for the troops to push off Russia. Therefore, increasing the combat effectiveness of the Austro-Hungarian Corps became an inevitable choice.
In order to achieve this, Rupresit needed to do two things: the first was to persuade the Kaiser to put Bavaria in charge of the liaison with Austria-Hungary, and the second was to ask King Fritz to agree to at least send an army group to fight alongside Bavaria. The latter received moderation from the Kingdom of Bavaria.
To outsiders, the first point seems a little more difficult. However, considering that Bavaria has relatively independent diplomatic and military powers, it is not illegal to do so, and because of geography, in the event of a war, only Bavaria is best suited to help Austria-Hungary. So the first requirement is reasonable and legitimate.
The second point is troublesome, after all, this involves the issue of wartime command, although the German military advisory group in Austria eventually mastered the Austro-Hungarian Corps, but it was also after a series of battles that the German army told the Austrians that their fists were big enough. And when the war on this plane began, Austria was not necessarily willing to surrender military power.
