Chapter 196: The Death Messenger Is Coming (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
"Your Royal Highness, war has broken out. www.biquge.info According to the information obtained by our insiders, the Tsar's army has begun to assemble in East Prussia. They formed the North-Western Front, under the command of the 1st Army and the 2nd Army, under the command of General Gilinsky, with a total strength of more than 500,000 men. Is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's army ready? We can provide intelligence support to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and in return for His Highness's support to us. Joseph said to Qin Tian.
In Joseph's opinion, more than 500,000 Russian troops are coming with great momentum, and the army of East Prussia is not even 200,000, so he should be panicked. However, to his regret, he didn't even see a trace of panic on Qin Tian's face.
"Thank you, sir, for the reminder, and rest assured that the army of East Prussia is ready for battle. As long as the Russian army dares to come, we will definitely be able to defeat them. Qin Tian said confidently.
Although Joseph didn't quite believe Qin Tian's words, he still didn't say anything. Now Qin Tian has become the biggest supporter of the Bu Party overseas, of course they don't want to offend Qin Tian, let alone Qin Tian has an accident.
"Sir, I would like to confirm that if the Russian army is defeated by us on the battlefield. Will you be able to take the opportunity to launch a revolution in Russia and overthrow the Tsarist dictatorship? Qin Tian asked. This is the reason why he supports the party. With the help of the Cloth Party, the revolution was launched at home, which led to civil strife in Russia. In this case, the Russian army on the Eastern Front will not have anything to worry about. And Germany was able to win the Eastern Front at the lowest cost. Once the Eastern Front was settled, Germany would no longer have to worry about fighting on two fronts.
In another time and space, the reason for Germany's defeat was that in addition to the sea trade routes being cut off by the British, there was another reason, which was the attrition of the two-front battle. At the beginning of the war, Germany set the goal of first defeating France on the Western Front, and then turning east and defeating Russia. Its fundamental purpose is to create a time gap so as to avoid falling into a two-front battle. It's just a pity that the Germans' strategy did not succeed. The huge attrition of the two-front battle made it impossible for Germany to support it very quickly. This, combined with the outbreak of civil strife at home, allowed Germany to lose the war without the German army being defeated.
In this time and space, Qin Tian naturally wanted to try his best to avoid all this. Only in this way can we truly ensure that Germany will win the war, not in the end.
"Of course, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. We're ready. The tyrannical rule of the Tsar has become unbearable for the people of the country. This time, the Tsar joined the war between imperialism in spite of the strong resistance of the people at home, which made the people very angry. Once the army loses at the front, it will inevitably cause consequences like an avalanche. When the time comes, we will certainly be able to call on more people to rise up against the tsarist government. The overthrow of the rule of the tsarist government is just around the corner. A flash of frenzy flashed in Joseph's eyes.
Qin Tian, Hindenburg and Ludendorff were all a little speechless, it seems that the German Empire is also an imperialist country in Joseph's mouth. However, it is a bit of a contradiction that they are now cooperating with the German Empire.
"That would be great. Mr. Joseph, do you need any more help? Just bring it up, and I'll give you my full support. Qin Tian said. He wished that the Bruines would start a revolution, in which case the pressure on the German Empire on the Eastern Front would be much less.
"Your Highness, we still need a batch of funds, and in addition, we need a batch of arms." After Joseph finished speaking, he looked at Qin Tian and waited for Qin Tian's answer. In fact, this was the main purpose of his visit to East Prussia this time to meet Qin Tian. In these days, if you want to start a revolution, you also need money. Without money, nothing can be done. Weapons and equipment are even more urgently needed, and they must not let their people fight the Tsar's doglegs with their bare hands.
"No problem, I'll give you a check for five million marks when you go. As for the weapons, I'll find a way to get them to you. Personally, I am very sympathetic to the situation of your party, and I also admire your faith. So, please tell Mr. Ulyanov that I will give you my full support. Qin Tian said.
"Thank you to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for your support. The leader said that once we overthrow the rule of the Tsar, we will definitely repay His Highness. Joseph said.
Qin Tian nodded, but didn't say anything more. Although he did not make a request to those in the Cloth Party, the Cloth Party should also know that there is no such thing as a free lunch in the world. Qin Tian had provided them with so much support, and when they were successful, they would have to pay it back exponentially. Of course, soon the people of the cloth party knew that they still underestimated Qin Tian's appetite. When they overthrew the rule of the tsar and wanted to withdraw from the war, they found that Qin Tian had already raised his knife and fork and wanted to have a good meal on the fallen Russia.
Joseph left with a satisfied smile, and Qin Tian's face was also full of smiles.
"Your Highness, it's hard to imagine that these people from the cloth party would actually betray the interests of the country for their own interests." Hindenburg shook his head, a look of disdain.
"Yes! Such a situation would never have happened in the German Empire. Ludendorff also said.
"Actually, I can understand them. All this time, they were oppressed by the tsar. If you want to get ahead, there is no way to do it. The only way is to overthrow the Tsar. In this case, anyone who supports them will be accepted by them. This is true even if it is a hostile foreign force. Because, they can't find any other supporters. So, they know that if they work with us, they will have a lot of trouble. But they had no choice. Soon, you will know how profitable my investment in them will be for us. Qin Tian said with a smile.
Both Hindenburg and Ludendorff shook their heads speechlessly, they were pure military men and did not do any of this.
"Well, General, let's not talk about it. I'll take care of the matter of cooperating with the Party. You just need to manage the army. The Northwestern Front of the Russians has already arrived. To be exact, he came in a hurry to die. Get our troops ready and eat them in one bite! Qin Tian said.
"Yes, Your Highness. Rest assured, we'll be able to eat them all! Both Hindenburg and Ludendorff laughed.
