1498 Undercurrent Surges 1

"We need to unite more people and groups, such as the Central Federation of Industrialists, the Federation of German Industrialists, the Colonial Association, the Bankers' Association. There is also the Lutheran Church in East Prussia, these are all the help we can seek, after all , Germany’s chariots need industry to provide power, banks to provide funds, and religious groups to stabilize the mood of the people.” Scheidemann thought for a while and then said: “And in terms of class, we are natural allies with them. We have a common goal, let German products and capital go to the world, and replace the shackles imposed on us by those decadent Junker nobles and imperial power!"

"Did someone tell you something?" Albert frowned slightly, and looked up at Scheideman, who was a little unnatural.

"Yes, Rissel, chairman of the Bankers Association, and Streismann, legal adviser to the Federation of German Industrialists, found me in Hamburg, and expressed their dissatisfaction with the current distribution of rights, and hinted that they can provide us with various Help." Scheidemann did not deny it.

"And you promised them?!" Albert asked sullenly?

"No, I'm expressing our goodwill." Scheideman looked at the gloomy Albert and felt a little guilty. He really couldn't understand why his boss was unhappy when he brought in such a bunch of foreign aid?

"They are definitely not sending charcoal in a timely manner, but using us to deal with a more terrifying enemy that has nothing to do with us. Our goal now is to solve the problem of Prussia, not the problem of Germany." Albert said in a deep voice.

"Isn't it the same? By taking control of Prussia, we control Germany. The Prussian chancellor and the German chancellor are one person, and if the German chancellor is chosen by a parliamentary majority and answers to the parliament instead of the emperor, then we control German executive power," Scheidemann said.

"I know what you are worried about. You are worried that the Kingdom of Bavaria will be hostile to us. However, we are solving the problem of Prussia and have not taken action in the Imperial Parliament. They have no reason to interfere in Prussia's internal affairs." Scheidemann said.

"But what if the Kaiser asks the Bavarian military to interfere in the internal political situation of Prussia?" Albert asked rhetorically. "If in peacetime, we have no ability to limit the imperial power, but now, the most fundamental reason why we have this opportunity is because the country is in a state of war and the army is unable to grasp the internal power? As long as the Kaiser dissolves the parliament ability, then we will never win!"

"Even if the military power is sufficient, the Kaiser will never do this, unless they are willing to lose the war. Without the support of big companies, bankers, and us, the war is unsustainable!" Scheidemann said.

"What are you thinking?! Although we are the largest political party in the country,

But we only have 1 million party members! How many people are there in Germany now? 79 million people! Do you really think that those big capitalists will fight with us to the end? ! impossible! They are scumbags and will only stand with the winners. The Krupp family sold part of their shares to the Kaiser. Siemens has a close relationship with the Bavarian royal family. Daimler Benz has a dual background in Württemberg and Bavaria. The Niah Shipyard and the Royal Wilhelm Shipyard are the private property of the Kaiser. They are ready to retreat, as long as the Kaiser raises the sword in his hand. They turn around and point their guns at us! said Albert.

"The Kaiser is ready. Bavaria, Skoda, and the military enterprises controlled by the Kaiser can provide arms to the front-line army in a short period of time. As for other industries? Those industrial associations and business associations do have some influence. power, but during the war, their role was reduced to the minimum! Believe me, relying on some of their hidden weapons and some so-called paramilitary personnel, they want to force the Kaiser to make concessions? It is impossible! The South Those Catholics will not show mercy to them!" Albert snorted.

"But the Bavarian Army was pinned down on the Eastern Front! It is impossible for them to have enough troops and time to deal with domestic emergencies," Scheidemann said.

"Do you know how many people there are in the Bavarian Army? Tell you, even the German General Staff doesn't know what the upper limit of the Bavarian Army's mobilization is! To deal with those mobs, I tell you, 70,000 elite light infantry is enough! Relying on German troops The transportation network, within a week, can tear the poor armed forces of those guys to pieces, and then these messengers will be executed for treason," Albert said.

"We even opposed the Kaiser, but now we want to throw a mouse at a king. If we follow your ideas, we will never succeed." Regarding Albert's statement, Scheidemann wanted to refute, but he didn't know where to say it From now on, I can only say one angry word.

"Bavaria is also our enemy and will not be our friend. We will meet them sooner or later, but not now! What we have to do now is to use some people in Prussia to cause a conflict between Prussia and Bavaria. If we If Bavaria can guarantee neutrality when Prussia begins its operations, then our chances of victory will be great."

"Don't forget that some of the Junker nobles in the Prussian army, as well as the Prussian Lutheran group, and some other economic and social groups have great opinions on Bavaria. Especially now, the distribution of newly acquired regions in Germany , Some people in the parliament have already proposed to receive the newly acquired territory as soon as possible and distribute the war dividends. In this regard, some Junker nobles are more impatient than us. They are eager to get the land and land of Russian Poland. Resources. And this is something we can use!" Albert said meaningfully. "Let the Junker nobles deal with Bavaria, and then we will deal with the Junker nobles!"

"So, the task we have to do now is not to continue to promote political reforms, but to focus on the distribution of war dividends. We must promote the distribution of occupied territories in the parliament! Force Bavaria to hand over their control area, Then quickly establish an administrative system to effectively manage the colonies. These places have sufficient interests, enough for us to buy some middlemen." Albert explained his plan.

"This is also a good stopgap measure." Scheideman said.

"No, this is not an expedient measure. If we want to establish a centralized parliamentary country, then suppressing and weakening the Kingdom of Bavaria will be our important task!" Albert said firmly.
