Jagged Germany

   "Your Majesty, the Germans are really deceiving people too much!" Mario Weber said to Franz Joseph I angrily after von Kidren Wascht left the palace.

  Germany made peace with Russia first, and then distributed them a little bit of benefits at will, just like sending beggars, which is really indignant.

  The smile on Franz Joseph I's face also disappeared completely. His amiable face just now was simply an act of faking. As the emperor of an empire, even if he is old, he cannot tolerate others treating him like this.

"I am also very angry. But, Your Excellency, what do you think we can do now? Torn face with the Germans? Or, like the Italians, directly betray Germany and go to war with them?" Franz? Joseph I asked back.

   Suddenly, Mario Weber was speechless. He naturally knew that the Austro-Hungarian Empire would definitely not be able to tear itself apart from Germany. As for the betrayal of Germany, there is no way to talk about it. Anyone can see that the Allies have already gained the upper hand in this war. It doesn't seem to be a problem to win the final victory. If at this time, they still betrayed the German Empire and joined the Allied Powers, it would undoubtedly be something that a fool could do.

   If you betray the German Empire, join the Entente, and defeat Germany, that's fine. But if that fails to defeat Germany, it is really a dead end. Franz Joseph I and Mario Weber were very aware of the strength of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Although the Austro-Hungarian Empire also had two or three million troops. But if there is a real fight, it is estimated that Germany only needs to dispatch two or three legions to defeat them.

  Although, in the previous battle to defeat the Russian Southwest Front Army, the Austro-Hungarian Army also contributed a huge amount of strength. But they all know how much the Austro-Hungarian Empire has contributed in this. It can be said that the German 8th Army played a vital role in defeating the Russian Southwest Front. Without the German 8th Army, the Austro-Hungarian Empire would have been defeated. No, they launched another attack later, trying to gnaw off a piece of fat on the Russians when Russia was at its weakest. The result was defeated instead, and the loss was not small.

"Your Excellency, the Germans will do this, no wonder they, our own strength is too weak! If it were us, if our strength is much stronger than the Germans, we can simply ignore the Germans In this world, after all, the strong will prey on the weak!" Franz Joseph I said somewhat helplessly. The essence of this world is that the weak prey on the strong.

Mario Weber nodded: "Your Majesty, I understand. Judging from the current situation, the allies have a better chance of winning in this war. Therefore, we can gain more benefits by staying in the allies. In addition, if In this war, if we can take the Balkan Peninsula and cut off a piece of meat from the Italians, that would be good. The war reparations of two billion marks is not a small amount."

  People are often like this. If you change your thinking, many problems can be figured out. This is undoubtedly the case with the current Austro-Hungarian Empire.

   German Foreign Minister von Kidren Wacht did not stay long in Vienna. After meeting Franz Joseph I, he met with Archduke Friedrich and Baron Marshal Herzendorf respectively. The commanders-in-chief of the two Austrian armies also expressed their understanding of Germany's approach to Russia. After all, they all knew that such a change in Russia was entirely planned by the Germans, and the Austro-Hungarian Empire did not contribute much in the war against Russia. Of course, they paid a lot of casualties for this. But that was simply because the Austrian army was too weak. If they are strong, maybe Germany will have to consider their attitude and let them get a share.

  Von Kidren Wachter seems to have selectively forgotten to visit Crown Prince Karl. As the crown prince of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Karl's status is undoubtedly very high. In reason and reason, von Kidren Wachter should also pay a visit. However, von Kidren Wachter went directly back to Germany the next day, which made everyone's jaw drop.

   "Damn Germans, they didn't take me seriously at all!" After the German Foreign Minister left, Crown Prince Karl was furious in his palace. The actions of the Germans undoubtedly gave him a slap in the face, making him, the Crown Prince, not know where to put his face.

   Von Kidren? Wacht did this, of course, on purpose. On the one hand, the German intelligence agencies are well aware that Crown Prince Karl is fanning the ghostly wind and destroying the relationship between the German Empire and the Austro-Hungarian Empire. On the other hand, when Germany and Austria jointly dealt with the Russian army, Crown Prince Karl also targeted Qin Tian's von Kidren Wascht several times. This time, he took this opportunity to severely humiliate him. up.

  As Franz Joseph I got older, Crown Prince Karl's influence in the Austro-Hungarian Empire continued to increase. After all, compared with Franz Joseph I, Crown Prince Karl is not a wise king. But who told Franz Joseph I that he was not far from meeting God? Isn't the future empire all owned by Crown Prince Karl? This made the nobles and elites of the Austro-Hungarian Empire more willing to maintain a good relationship with Crown Prince Karl.

  However, after the German foreign minister did not give Crown Prince Karl face, many people quickly realized that Germany was not satisfied with Crown Prince Karl. Although, it was not Germany's turn to interfere in the internal affairs of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. However, once Germany wins the war, it will undoubtedly become the hegemony of the world. Even though Crown Prince Karl inherited the throne and became the monarch of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. However, if he offends the world overlord, even if Crown Prince Karl becomes emperor, he will inevitably be greatly suppressed.

   This also made many people who originally planned to get closer to Crown Prince Karl couldn't help but stop, planning to wait and see again to see if there would be any changes in the future.

  After Crown Prince Karl knew about this situation, he was so angry that he was about to vomit blood. In addition, Germany is very unwilling to monopolize a large area of ​​​​Russia's territory. In his opinion, those territories should have been part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
