……
The collapse of the Second German Reich and the collapse of the Kingdom of Prussia will not have anything to do with Rich.
Prussia is the stronghold of the Junkers military group, which can be said to be run like an iron bucket, even if the Kingdom of Prussia is gone, the inheritance must be inherited by the Junker military group.
Don't forget that the Second German Reich consisted of kingdoms, city-states, free cities, Bavaria, Saxony, Württemberg, Hesse, Mellenburg, in addition to the Kingdom of Prussia...... and many other kings and city-states. Of these, the Kingdom of Bavaria was the largest kingdom in the Second German Empire after Prussia.
The Kingdom of Bavaria, the second largest kingdom in the Second German Empire, was only fourth in terms of industrial power, even after Saxony and Hanover, but Bavaria's agriculture was the best in the Second German Empire.
"In the future, Germany will inevitably go through a difficult period, when industry is important, but even more important is the food that people eat."
It had been three days since Richie arrived in Eldin, and he had summoned his followers to make the necessary arrangements.
For more than two years, Li Qi did not do nothing, and he used the heroic aura of the Imperial Propaganda Department to bring it, and won the recognition of many people. Subsequently, he began to systematically cultivate his network and build his own team.
Before there was no great chaos in Germany, Li Qi could only build a team in secret, mostly through some formal means, such as investing in companies and operating veterans' funds, and taking the official road.
In fact, whether it is those companies or veteran funds, the previous top leader is not Li Qi, his identity is similar to the CEO, he is the executive officer, the chairman, the director, etc. are the crown prince and the prince ~ prince and so on.
As a CEO, the biggest advantage is to be able to actually manage and select talents who are useful in special times. Li Qi has always been doing that, and he has indeed gathered a lot of talents.
Now that the Second German Reich is about to collapse and the chairman and directors are about to go into exile, it's time for Litchie to step up to the fore and play Game of Thrones as a leader.
At the beginning of this Game of Thrones, Richie will not play the role of a shady power grabber, he will be a protector, providing a safe escape for some of the groups that once led him, and in return, those who will transfer some assets that they cannot keep at all to some names under his control.
If Li Qi's biggest advantage is now, it is undoubtedly still a "prediction" of the future. He knows what to expect and can prepare in advance, which is a great advantage compared to those who need to take it one step at a time.
"But...... We need industrial ones too, right? "Sgart. Wirtz is the head of Elding's side. He was a thin-looking, lean-looking man who said hesitantly: "Although Bavaria is only fourth in terms of industry, it is still better than countries like Belgium and the Netherlands. ”
Richie didn't like it when he was talking, especially when he retorted, and he glanced at Sgart. Wirtz, the warning is strong.
Originally with Sgart. Among the few people who stood very close to Wirtz, Hermann. Goering and Alfred. Rosenberg involuntarily consciously left the Sgart. Wirtz is a little farther away.
"Yes, we need industry, but for us, we can only have industry if we first guarantee food!" Li Qi glanced around and looked at the various people present, some of them were soldiers, some of them were members of society. He looked at each of them before he said, "In the next few years, whoever has the food will be supported." Compared with filling the stomach, what ideas, beliefs, isms, they are all false castles in the air! ”
Herman. Goering seemed to listen very attentively and approvingly, and couldn't help but nod his head.
Next, Leach announced a number of plans of action, including the organization of existing contacts and groups, and it was the order for the formation of the "Free Corps".
The so-called "Freikorps" actually had one, called the "German Freikorps", and they fought against Tsarist Russia on the Eastern Front and the Anglo-French forces on the Western Front.
The armed force, called the Freikorps of Germany, is a militia of about 130,000 people. Later, the rule of the Second German Reich collapsed, and they were acquiesced in by the Entente countries after the war to maintain their establishment, and became a major armed force to prevent Germany's "red~", and they successively fought with the German Bolsheviks, Polish government forces, Czechoslovak local armed forces and other forces, and all of them were victorious.
The Freikorp that Litchie wanted to form was in fact to absorb some of the backbone of the "German Freikorp", such as some of the generals in the legion, Karl Brown. Strecker, Carl. Adolph. Hollitt, Carl. Hilpet, Hans. Jeshunek was absorbed. (a lot of Carl)
Despite its initial formation, the number of Freikorps belonging to Richie has exceeded 30,000. At present, most of this force is scattered in the Kingdom of Bavaria, Baden-Württemberg, Saxony and other regions, and has not been concentrated.
The reason why Li Qi did not concentrate his troops was very simple, everything was too chaotic in the early days of the collapse of the Second German Reich, with all sorts of socialists jumping up and down one by one, and then the garrisons in various places gradually diverging into soldiers of various parties. He did not have the strength to destroy the Socialists at the first time, nor did he have the strength to make enemies of all the people, so he could only disperse first and take advantage of the chaos to occupy some areas that he considered important.
There was nothing too complicated about the meeting, what should be done, what steps were taken, it was very clear that after Litch disbanded the meeting, he needed to immediately go to Bockhorn, northwest of Eldin, to fulfill his duties at the Air Ministry.
Herman. Goering is not out of work from the Air Force now, after all, the German Air Force has not yet been disbanded. It was he and Richie who would go to Bokhorn together.
Why did Litch get in touch with Herman. Goering mixed up? It was Litchie who took the initiative to find Herman. Goering, after some temptation, this captain became one of Richie's followers.
Many people may wonder that Richie should understand Herman. Goering is a "rat", knowing that it is rat poop why would he still be with Hermann. Goering stirred it all together. That is the opinion of some people who know little about the "three virtues" with the "vision of God".
Herman. Goering has a good family background. Richie may not need his family background, but he has amazing talents in economics and aviation planning, and Richie needs anyone who can do it.
Know a little! The mustache did not have an air force at first, and the Entente countries restricted Germany from having an air force. From scratch, Goering developed the huge German Air Force at the beginning of World War II!
In line with the idea of "making the best use of things", Li Qi put Herman. Goering pulled over to be a strong man, which will give him more energy to do other things, as for the direction of the development of the Air Force, will it be led crooked? Isn't there a Li Qi gatekeeper!
