"Any efforts should be rewarded! The German Empire, Austria, Bavaria and Hungary all participated in this war as independent or semi-independent forces, so they should get a share of the spoils. If, according to this principle, as the female grandmother of Bohemia-Moravia, Princess Mary and her descendants should also share their spoils. Do you agree with this matter?" said the Austrian.

"Damn!" In this regard, the Grand Duke of Baden really didn't know what to say. He knew what the so-called independent or semi-independent powers meant by Emperor Ao. Powers such as Württemberg, Saxony and his own Grand Duchy of Baden are definitely not counted. Not only because these kingdoms or principalities are too weak and cannot be considered as numbers. More importantly, in the entire German Empire, except for Bavaria, all the armies of other kingdoms or principalities were supported by the German central government. This is also the fundamental reason why in history, when describing German military power, only the Bavarian legions could be named after the titles of the First and Second Army of Bavaria, while other kingdoms could not be.

If the standard is to support one's own army, then the Bohemia-Moravian Legion is really a prince... Because the military expenditure of this legion is really a man of Mary's grand duke at least from the surface! When I think of this, Grand Duke Baden was so depressed. Everyone is also a grand duke. His grand duke is also well-known in Germany, and he is also a first-class nobleman in Europe. But compared with Grand Duke Mary, this gap is really big!

"But you did not mention it before. When the three families negotiated, there was no female grand duke. If you were willing to give your daughter some compensation, you could take out some of the spoils of the Austro-Hungarian Empire." said Grand Duke Baden.

"However, in the case where Prussia first violated the results of the negotiation, do you still expect others to follow it? Don't you find this idea ridiculous? There is nothing wrong with the Prussia behind you on moral matters."

"And now, it is completely legal and reasonable for Bavaria to deal with the territory in his hands. After all, the so-called Polish Kingdom has not been established yet. The occupied area on the Eastern Front should be under the control of the Eastern Front Command. Ruprecht is willing to give it to us and we obey the orders. There is no problem. As for the German Emperor who believes that we have provoked his dignity, I can only say sorry, because he first broke the rules of the game. What he did must endure after all!" said Emperor Ao.

Although the relationship between the Austro-Hungarian Empire and Germany has been pretty good recently, there are still some problems between the two sides, especially during the Bismarck period, when the German Emperor rejected the request of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and as the prime minister, Bismarck was always restricting the ambitions of the Austro-Hungarian Empire in the Barr area. This is what it means to not allow the powerful Germany to be kidnapped by the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Now, the Austro-Hungarian Empire has admitted that he has stood on the side of Bavaria in this matter, and at the same time he has also found a reason that is quite reasonable.

After all, if we were to say that when fighting in the Polish region, the Bohemia-Moravian Legion's contribution was definitely much greater than the 200,000 troops started by the East Prussian Legion. As a relatively independent military force, you really can't say anything if you want to get a share of it!

Of course, the most important point is what Ao Huang said just now. Since everyone has broken the rules of the game and has no previous trust, then you can get it by your ability! If Prussia wants it, Bavaria just doesn’t give it. What can you do to me?!

"This attitude is very unfriendly!" Grand Duke Baden said in his heart. However, at this time, when the Ao Emperor dared to show off against him, it means that he had the confidence. He came here to coordinate the conflict, not to create conflicts. Grand Duke Baden knew that he could not tell the German Emperor intact just now, which would only lead to the tension between the two sides. To be honest, even if he told the German Emperor about this, what else could the German Emperor? When most generals of the General Staff did not support the German Emperor, the German Emperor had lost the ability to use powerful means to solve the problem. At this time, Grand Duke believed that even Prime Minister Holvig in Berlin did not dare to promote Polish independence!

"Your Majesty, believe me. If things go on, this result will definitely not be what you and I want to see." Grand Duke Baden's face was already a little anxious.

"If you want to solve the problem, you should not come to me, but to find the main master. Prussia tried to win by poaching, which was originally full of hostility. As you said just now, everyone should negotiate a solution, and the premise of negotiated solution is goodwill between each other. When you come to Vienna instead of Hagia Sophia, there is absolutely no kindness, right?" Emperor Ao asked back.

"This is the rhythm of turning the blame!" Grand Duke Baden could clearly feel that it was Austria asking him to find Ruprecht to solve this problem. However, he really didn't want to face the Bavarian crown prince, because the other party seemed to be more determined than Austria and could not solve the problem...

"I will go to Hagia Sophia, but before that, I want to remind Your Majesty that you should be out of the matter within Germany. Now, the affairs within the Austro-Hungary are enough for you to work hard." Grand Duke Baden took a deep breath and said. "In addition, as an ally, I really want to know how you want to deal with Hungary. We do not mean to interfere in your internal affairs, we just want to know."

"Is this your other mission?" said Emperor Austria with a smile. "A centralized and efficient country is the same as the German Empire. Hungary will be weakened, but it will still exist. The empire will become a federal system, and Austria will become the most powerful existence in the federal government, with an overwhelming advantage over other states. In addition, the Grand Duchy of Bohemia and Moravia will be hereditary, which can be regarded as a father giving his daughter a little selfishness. After all, you know that there is no suitable person in my lineage in the Habsburg royal family! I always have to leave something."

"Hmm?!" Unexpectedly, it's reasonable! How could a person have no selfish intentions? The Austrian Emperor took heavy measures to deal with Hungary in order to centralize power, and at the same time supported Bohemia-Moravia, which was obviously for his daughter. Princess Mary's eldest son is now a nationality of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. In theory, in the future, the throne of Bavaria should be inherited by another son. This seems very good!
