Chapter 2804 Black Wing Knights 2
He does not believe in anyone, he does not believe in the imperial government, nor the army. He only believes in the power he possesses in his hands. Therefore, in order to successfully ascend the throne in the future, and to be able to reproduce his original glory in his hands, he must make a difference! A party or powerful group that obeys the order is an important tool to achieve this goal! Therefore, he wants to establish his own power and he will become the Black Wing Knights! Inspired by the Black Hawk Knights, which have been loyal to the Hohenzollern family for generations. The most powerful group in the empire!
Earl of Marwitz, has the remaining land situation in the Polish Governor's District been sorted out? The crown prince turned around and looked at the court housekeeper who had been with him for more than ten years. He is now in charge of the daily administrative work of the Polish Governor's District.
It has been sorted out. In addition to the land legally held by local people and land requisitioned by official background, we also have more than 500,000 hectares of arable land and forest land ponds. At least half of these land can be used directly. How do you plan to deal with these lands? Count von Marwitz asked.
If we sell it to our supporters, what do you think of this? The Crown Prince asked.
If it is a small amount, it will naturally be no problem, but if it is too large, it may cause criticism. After all, there are regulations on idle land in the empire. Farmers who have lost land can rent some of the fields first, and the resettlement of retired personnel also requires land. If we sell the land to a very small number of nobles, it may cause a huge shock. Don’t forget how the parliamentary faction was almost removed from power. People’s livelihood issues, especially the people’s livelihood issues of retired soldiers, are red lines that cannot be reached within the empire. Earl Marwitz said.
But I need money, I need a lot of money! I need to use tangible interests to tie those nobles who are loyal to me to my chariot. Without interests, the loyalty of those Junker nobles is not worth mentioning at all! The crown prince said impatiently.
Your Highness, we can share profits, but we must not easily distribute means of production, because the latter is the source of wealth. We can let those nobles join our industry in the form of shares. But the control can only be in our hands. The right to allocate land and the right to infrastructure construction of the Polish Governor's District you now have are all available to us. We do not need to give them land. Hopman, who is responsible for the finance of the Polish Governor's District, helped him and said, "
If I hand over this to you, can you handle it? I need to increase my wealth in my private account by 10 million marks within one year! And those who swore allegiance to me in the venue today, I hope to increase by 20 in one year! The prince looked at Hopman.
That is my honor, Your Highness Hopman bowed and said.
If you do, then I promise you can become a real-powered Count, and your fiefdom and brand new mansion will be in the outskirts of Poland, next to my palace! The crown prince said.
Your generosity makes me unable to repay you, and I will give you my abilities and loyalty. Hopman said.
Very good, I hope you don't let me down. The prince nodded and said, and at this moment, the phone on the table suddenly rang. After a moment, the prince knew that his other loyal minister, Lieutenant General Feng Esterov, was coming.
Although the German Emperor's loyalty target greatly reduced the imperial majesty during the coup during the war, no matter what, the accumulation over hundreds of years still gave the Hohenzollern family a considerable foundation in the army. As the eldest son of the royal family and the future heir to the throne, the crown prince could naturally gain allegiance from some military personnel, such as Lieutenant General von Estrov, during the domestic coup, he strongly supported the army to return to Berlin from the eastern front to pay the king! After some investigation, the crown prince thought this person was credible, so he transferred him to his command.
Lieutenant General, is there any important news when visiting late at night? The crown prince looked at the wall clock that had already pointed to two o'clock on the wall and said.
Yes, Your Highness, I have just returned from Berlin. I had just participated in the discussion of Türkiye's operation strategy by the General Staff of the Imperial General Staff. Lieutenant General Estrov said.
Let me tell you. Is there anything new? The crown prince asked.
There are some things, simply put, the contradictions in Turkey have intensified to a certain extent. Even if there are external factors, a turmoil is likely to break out. If the current Sudan collapses, the empire must choose a suitable spokesperson. Bavaria chooses General Kemal and hopes to send troops to support it in the name of the empire. However, there are different opinions within the empire. Lieutenant General Estrov said.
Kemal is also one of the few famous generals in the Turkish army, so why did the Imperial General Staff oppose it? The crown prince has also heard of Kemal's name, and it is appropriate to describe it as young and promising. He is also curious why the center opposed it.
First, Kemal wanted to completely abolish the system of pioneering sultan, and they wanted to establish an administrative system similar to Britain and France, which made many people in the empire feel dissatisfied. After all, before the war, we were the Three Emperors alliance, but after the war, we wanted to help Kemal overthrow the rule of the sultan, which made many people uncomfortable and worried that this trend of thought would affect the country.
Second, Kemal's outstanding ability is the reason why Bavaria supports him, but such people are also the most difficult to deal with. They are very autonomous and capable. Today they choose to rely on us, and if they betray us in the future, the result will be very bad. Therefore, many people in the empire hope to support a relatively weak and easy-to-control person, such as Demarpasha, is a good choice.
The third is the issue of support and situation. Bavaria hopes to end everything through a clean and neat military operation, but you know that the Imperial Navy and Army need to detour to enter Turkey. After all, it is impossible for us to cross the Austro-Hungarian Empire directly. The cost and risk are relatively high. Lieutenant General Estorov replied.
So if the Kingdom of Prussia and the Prussian Federation of Parliament are unwilling to help, then Bavaria is also able to perform this task alone, so why will it remain stalemate? The crown prince asked.
