Berlin, Moltke's mansion.

After dinner, Moltke went to the office as usual after chatting with his family for a while. Although he has been dismissed, he still has a great influence in the German Army. He was able to receive a lot of battle reports here.

Although, Qin Tian led the German army to fight an unprecedented victory in France. But Moltke Jr. didn't give in the towel. He believed that his ability, at least in terms of military command, was much more powerful than Qin Tian's. In order to prove this, Moltke Jr. came up with a solution, and that was to start writing books and sayings. That is, to pass on his own military command ideas through books. He believed that future generations would be able to distinguish between the superior and the inferior.

That night, Moltke had just put on his reading glasses and was getting ready for work. The waiter came to report, and Lieutenant General Plitwitz asked for an audience.

Moltke Jr. frowned, although his personal relationship with Lieutenant General Plitwitz was not bad, but after he was dismissed, Lieutenant General Plitwitz rarely came to him. After all, Moltke Jr., who had lost the post of chief of the General Staff, could no longer help Lieutenant General Plitwitz. At the same time, both of them are people who have had a holiday with Qin Tian, and if the two are in contact with each other, it will inevitably not reach Qin Tian's ears. In that case, it would make Qin Tian have bad thoughts in his heart. This is undoubtedly not a good thing for both of them. Therefore, the two took the initiative to reduce their meeting.

Although it was not clear what Lieutenant General Plitwitz was doing so late, Moltke Jr. asked the waiter to bring him to his office.

"Good evening, Your Excellency the Count!" Upon seeing Moltke Jr., Lieutenant General Plitwitz immediately greeted him. Moltke Jr.'s title was that of earl, and of course this title was not earned by himself, but inherited.

"Your Excellency, Lieutenant General, hello." Moltke nodded.

"Your Excellency, I have heard that you are writing a book on military command, and I have been waiting to see when I will be able to read your magnum opus." Lieutenant General Plitwitz said.

"Your Excellency Lieutenant General, I am just writing casually, and it is difficult to say whether it can be published or not." Moltke shook his head modestly.

"With His Excellency's military command ability, the book he writes will inevitably be sought after by everyone. You must know that there are still many people in the Imperial Army who have respect for His Excellency the Earl. Even after that guy came to power, everyone was suppressed. However, we have not given up, and are still waiting for the day when His Excellency the Earl will be able to lead us again to a greater victory. "Lieutenant General Plitwitz was very excited.

Little Moltke's eyes flashed with a hint of relief, and it was undoubtedly a relief for him to have so many supporters in the army. Of course, these people who are close to him are not in a good situation now, and some even choose to retire. Feng? After Falkenhayn came to power, he naturally cleaned up Moltke's lineage. This is a very normal thing, and anyone who comes to power will definitely do that. But little Moltke was still a little uncomfortable in his heart.

However, Moltke Jr. has little hope for returning to power. Now, Qin Tian's influence in the empire and the army is in full swing. Feng? Although Falkenhein's ability was not very good, the army won one major victory after another under his leadership. From the point of view of indication, these are much better than when Moltke Jr. was in charge of the army. Ordinary people can't see what is deep, they only think that Moltke Jr. is incompetent, so he can't lead the army to victory. And Feng? Falkenhein's ability is strong, so the band can lead the army to victory. Plus with the support of Qin Tian, the imperial crown prince, Feng? Falkenhein's position is naturally as stable as Mount Tai.

"Your Excellency, I am now a dismissed person, but I don't think about those unrealistic things anymore." Moltke shook his head. Although, in his heart, he is also very eager to return to the army, preferably to be able to return to the post of chief of the army staff. Of course, he knew that this was already impossible. If you insist on finding a way in that direction, it will cause Qin Tian and Feng? Falkenhein's displeasure. When the time comes, he's probably in big trouble. Therefore, for the sake of his own interests, and even for the sake of his own life, little Moltke can only press the unrealistic thoughts in his heart.

"Your Excellency, why should you be presumptuous? With your ability and qualifications, and your prestige in the army, there is absolutely no one who can compare with you. I think you'll have a chance. Lieutenant General Plitwitz said.

Moltke shook his head: "Forget it, Your Excellency Lieutenant General." People should be aware of the status quo. Otherwise, you'll only get yourself into a crisis. I advise you, from now on, you'd better be honest. Although, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince may not embarrass you. But there are many people who know about your feast. Those who want to show favor to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will inevitably not take advantage of this opportunity to deal with you. If I were you, it would be best to ask for a retirement from active duty at once, leave Berlin, find a small place, and live in peace. ”

Plitwitz's face turned blue and white. Although, he knew that Moltke was doing it for his good. However, he was really a little unwilling in his heart! Let him just give up the power in his hands and leave the bustling Berlin, he will not be willing.

What's more, after meeting that person, a glimmer of hope has been rekindled in his heart.

"No, we haven't lost yet, we still have a chance, we can't just give up!" Lieutenant General Plitwitz said secretly.

Lieutenant General Plitwitz took a deep breath, calmed his mood, and began to organize his language. The main purpose of his visit to Moltke this time was to persuade Moltke to act with them. After all, although Moltke Jr. was dismissed, he still had unparalleled influence in the army. With Moltke Jr. on board, their chances of success are undoubtedly much greater.

"Your Excellency, I am very unwilling. You know, the position of commander of the 8th Army was originally mine. However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's sudden intervention prevented me from getting this position. Otherwise, I am afraid that I would have been the one who commanded the 8th Army Corps to shine on the battlefield on the Eastern Front. Say, "Can I be willing?" Lieutenant General Plitwitz said with red eyes.
