What is Bavaria's ultimate goal on domestic issues? Isn't it just that the German Emperor faction and the parliamentary faction are stalemate and thus eventually split Prussia? This situation can only be achieved when neither side can handle the opponent. Judging from the current situation, the parliamentary faction is relatively weak on the surface and is at a disadvantage, while the German Emperor? Although the openly stronger, there are too many factors of instability within the army. Most of the German leaders do not want to fight, so the overall advantage is limited. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince balanced very well in the first half!

Fortunately, most of the top leaders of the German army on the Western Front were actually neutral. They had similar ideas to the navy. The reason why they felt it was not obvious was that the British helped them a lot. Crook and others used the excuse of dealing with British and French attacks to avoid participating in the domestic struggle.

Therefore, from the perspective of the German Emperor, Crook and others belong to the group that is not firm in their position and will liquidate when they have the opportunity in the future. Crook and others themselves are very aware of this situation, so they, like Schell, are looking for a way to avoid liquidation! Some of them may have thought of peace talks, but it is not convenient to raise them. After all, as Prussian soldiers, no one is willing to bear the charge of the possibility of secession of Prussia!

With a similar reason, Bavaria and other kingdoms, as "outsiders", cannot openly propose proposals to negotiate between the two sides. Because if it is proposed by Ruprecht or the Grand Duke of Württemberg, it will make Prussian insiders feel wary, because everyone knows that negotiations in such a similar balance of power mean division of rights. This division will inevitably lead to a decrease in cohesion within Prussia, which is exactly what Bavaria needs! Therefore, this suggestion can be proposed by people within Prussia or by a neutral party, but it must not be proposed by the Kingdom of Bavaria!

Now, Scher proposed in the name of the navy, undoubtedly the best result! First of all, the German navy was the navy of the entire empire and was not subordinate to a certain kingdom. This is different from the army and the air force, because the latter belonged to the king. The Second German Empire never had any imperial army. It was roughly divided into two types, supported by Prussia and supported by Bavaria... (Although Saxony and Wurttemberg could manage their own troops in peacetime, the military expenditure was all from Prussia, and only Bavaria belonged to them completely) So after Scher proposed this proposal in the name of the German navy, no one had any opinions.

Secondly, Schell's method was not public, but a suggestion was given to Markens and others through private meetings. This was a private exchange, and this was not a sin. As for the spread of news? Markens and his own political fragility. He could not make up his mind and would inevitably send telegrams to the bosses on the Western Front. In this way, the people who originally wanted to instigate peace talks also had excuses. Anyway, this opinion was not proposed by him. They were just "aware of it." This is the so-called herd mentality.

Of course, in order to identify with peace talks more senior military leaders, there is something else to do, that is, to put the German military out of the matter as much as possible. In this way, when they look at this issue with a neutral attitude rather than someone's subordinates, then the German emperor who further loses the support of the army will have to have one way to negotiate peace talks.

At the same time, General Markens also acted quickly. After returning to the command, he immediately sent a telegram to the senior army leaders on the Western Front to clarify the matter. During the day the next day, four German army commanders in Brussels gathered again to start discussing the telegram they received last night.

"General Schell raised the issue of peace talks. What do you think?" Relying on the support of other commanders of the army, Crook already had the temperament of a leader. He said with his hand to dot the telegram on the table.

"Negotiation means compromise. The possibility of acceptance by the parliamentary faction is higher, but the German Emperor may not be. His Majesty the Emperor should be very irritable now, and based on our contact with Moltke, His Majesty is still fantasizing about going back to the past." General Hausen said.

The German officers' regiment still controls the top leaders of the army. Indeed, people like Albrecht, Württemberg, are an anomaly and are not very popular, while Pinov and General Helingen are also an anomaly. Their political tendencies are too obvious, which may not be much in normal times. But now, it is obvious that most of the people in the army are still very different from Pinov and others. After experiencing these things, the officers' regiment is actually a semi-independent military force and does not rely on the German emperor. So at this time, the second person can only speak Hausen. Whoever speaks on the other two will make Crook dissatisfied.

"What's wrong with going back in the past?" Pinov said. "We can't let those MPs and capitalists step on our heads, right? Look at what they do, the front line is tight, and the back is tight!"

"However, is there nothing wrong with His Majesty the German Emperor? If His Majesty had not tried to weaken Bavaria again and again and put the relationship between the two countries into a trough, the parliament sent those guys to give him ten courage to make trouble." Admiral Hausen had a very bad impression of the German Emperor after being brainwashed by Lieutenant General Hall in the last round.

"However, it is correct to weaken Bavaria to ensure Prussia's position in the empire. Look at the Austro-Hungarian Empire before the war begins. A dual system is a complete disaster for the empire!" Pinov said with a glaring eyes.

"Very good, since you think you are right, Prince Leopold is here. When we meet him, you can personally explain your point of view to him. However, accusing him of Bavaria's uncooperation that has led to this situation." Admiral Hausen sneered: "Do you dare?!"

"Okay, everyone is quiet." Crook looked at the generals in front of him with a calm face: "From the perspective of the German Emperor, his starting point is not wrong, but the matter was not done well, but the whole situation worsened. This is a mistake in itself! Is there less such things in the world? Right and wrong have nothing to do with the starting point! And I agree with General Scher's statement that the imperial army should first be loyal to its own country and then the nation. If you have to be loyal to a certain person, General Pinov, you can first ask your soldiers what they think. Of course, before doing this, let me know first, and if there is a problem, I can also mediate it."

A hint of ridicule was revealed in Crook's words. After all, General Hellingen's past has not been long since passed, so did Pinov not know how to learn from some experience and lessons?
