The establishment of the Secret War Department came to be known as the "Four Feats of Kuster's Life".

Although it is strict internally, killing people at the slightest disagreement, it is capable of exerting great power externally, and later serves Kuster and his heirs a great help.

Because they were made up of elite German spies, they were able to infiltrate anywhere, especially within the borders of the Allies, and they could get in with just a hello.

What is even more surprising is that Kuster attributed the department to his second son's company on the surface, which not only ensured the concealment of the department, but also ensured that the successor of the department could only be a descendant of Kuster.

Kuster told Kaiser Wilhelm about this, but he succeeded in fooling the Kaiser with half-truths, and even allowed Kuster to manage the department himself.

This gave Kuster a great deal of freedom to send them wherever he wanted.

What he fears most is his native Austria, that his rights will be hollowed out and that his ambitions will not be realized.

But there was a little chaos within Austria-Hungary, the factions led by the Austrians and Magyars were constantly strife, and the rest of the Balkan nations were also fighting for rights.

If some German spies were to come in at this time, it would certainly attract the attention of many parties, and any action would be hindered.

It's not unthinkable that Kuster is sneaky in action, but it will be unnecessarily hindered, and it will take time to even get through the levels.

And directly said that the Germans would interfere in Austro-Hungarian politics, and the British would definitely take the opportunity to hype up, which would cause an uproar in the international community, and the Kaiser might bear the consequences alone for the sake of face, but Kuster still didn't want to make enemies with the Kaiser, the big brother.

Therefore, if you want to infiltrate Austria-Hungary, you cannot rely on the personal ability of the members of the department, let alone rely on the position of Germany to suppress other countries.

Kuster's reputation in Austria-Hungary was very good, except for the Communists who denounced him as a "lackey of imperialism", the whole country worshipped him, and the Habsburg government also used his name to ease the people's uprising.

Maybe it would be better to write to the Emperor in person? Hopefully, he will be able to expand the size of the secret police and cram several of his own spies into it at the same time.

Unlike the Kaiser, neither of them was fools, they were both very interested in the interests of the country, and they would hardly agree to this request.

But Kuster kept a hand, he had a Hungarian friend and was an officer of the Austro-Hungarian intelligence service.

He could have used the letter as a cover to plant his own spy in the Imperial Diet while it was still arguing over the case.

As for whether it will be discovered, Kuster is not worried at all. Because of the bloated ethnic integration, the pluralistic society has made the country extremely chaotic, the communication is very serious, and the administrative efficiency is extremely low, and the officials are busy suppressing the rebellion of the local snake all day long, and there is no time for other things.

After infiltrating it, the first person to be eliminated was the Communist Party, and these people were extremely harmful to him.

But the Communists, as he said before, have the same red hearts despite their different skin colors, and those who believe in Marxism in this era are generally highly educated, and it may be very difficult to catch them.

The Austro-Hungarian government also wants to get rid of these people, if they find out that Kuster is also quietly engaged, maybe they will treat him as an accomplice, and acquiesce in Kuster's actions, after all, his efficiency is still very high, and his subordinates should be several grades better than the gendarmerie.

Thinking of this, Kuster added a few more words, saying that he had hated the Communists for a long time and longed to get rid of them in one day.

If government officials were suspicious of Kuster's intentions, he must have been right to get rid of the Communists.

Everyone knows that even if their interests are different, they are still of the same mind in terms of class, and they are all afraid of the rise of a new class. Kuster, who was the Imperial Chancellor, had to fight this class and prevent them from rising unless he was crazy.

When the letter was written, Kuster asked his civil servant to use it as a draft, slightly revised and sent it in the form of a telegram.

Then he was thinking about how to manipulate the intelligence organization, although the freedom of the members was firmly restricted, and they could not communicate with the outside world, loyalty could be determined, but whether they could do good things was also a question.

When the department was first established, two stunned young men thought that Kuster was not doing anything serious, and tried to make a phone call, but they were shot and killed by someone in the shadows, and they shot the corpse nine more times. Fortunately, Tbilisi has never been peaceful since the start of the war, and the citizens have long been accustomed to it, and there has been no negative news.

When the other Germans came back and saw the two of them, they knew that something was wrong, and when they thought of what Kuster said before, they were honest, and they just secretly scolded the eighteenth generation of the Kaiser's ancestors.

Unfortunately, no matter how angry the Kaiser was, it was impossible to investigate deeply, Wilhelm II was always a good person, and he did not put on a show with his close subordinates, and it was his arrogance that affected his rule.

And it was this arrogance that kept him from modifying what he did, which gave Kuster great courage and at the same time maintained friendly relations with the Kaiser.

With his name, Kuster got this department, except that the Germans in it did not respect him as much as the Austrians, and would not act exactly according to his will.

So how do you get them to do their job? Money power can only tempt a few of them, and force may distort their lives, but it cannot reverse their will.

Most of the ancient emperors used these three things to let the people work for him, and only physically oppressed the people, which obviously could not convince the people.

And the people who overthrew the emperor are not good birds, they still only oppress the people in a physical way, but slightly, and they belong to changing the soup but not the medicine.

Now the vanguard of the opposition to the bourgeoisie, communism, has much to learn, not least because they not only suppress the reactionaries by physical means, but also feed the people spiritual food, make them their own people, and then they can work willingly.

So Kuster wanted to learn from them, so that the ideas in the department could be unified, and the officers would be able to do it.

This should have been done when Kuster was in control of the Austrian military and government, but due to the pressure of the situation, the reforms had to be started within him in advance.

This also has the advantage of guiding future reforms as a guide for the country's development.

As for what good ideas are suitable for the current situation, Kuster thinks that the national society is very good.

[The National Society opposes violence and advocates top-down (initiated by the ruling class) reform and rectification of the social system, which is a combination of nationalism and socialism, similar to the Three Virtues. 】

In the context of the Great National Awakening, these Germans were full of national spirit, and some of them were radical Marxists.

Perhaps Kuster could have made them more conservative, not too xenophobic, and not so much as to overthrow the emperor's regime.

The national community is also a society, and there is no lack of nationalism, which should suit these Germans very well.

But Kuster made a slight modification to his propaganda to make nationalism less prevalent, after all, his country was being ravaged by nationalism.
