Chapter 129: Kill chickens to warn monkeys (for collection)
As for the issue of loyalty, Qin Tian is not worried at all. The Jonalight family originally served the Hohenzollern family. Now, he is the crown prince of the empire, the future emperor of the empire, and the Jonalet family will naturally be loyal to him wholeheartedly. Especially when his future was almost ruined, Carter von Jonarete undoubtedly cherished this opportunity even more. If Qin Tian also had an accident, or missed the throne, then Carter von Jonaret would not have achieved much in his life.
"Yes, Your Highness." Carter immediately sent a telegram.
"Plittwitz, I\'m really sorry this time, who let you bump into my gun? I have to borrow your head to use it." Qin Tian said secretly.
If you want to establish your prestige, there is nothing more suitable than killing chickens and monkeys. Now, Prittwitz himself jumped out to be the chicken, of course Qin Tian would not let it go. Although, this time Qin Tian couldn\'t get Prittwitz\'s head, but transferring the emperor\'s favorite from the 8th Army was undoubtedly a severe slap in the face, which was also a great blow to other generals Big shock. In this case, it will be much easier for Qin Tian to establish his prestige among the Eighth Army.
Of course, Qin Tian was not at all sure whether William II would support him. Qin Tian could only hope that William II would remember the love between father and son, and help him a little more. Otherwise, it would be impossible to transfer away from Prittwitz under the objection of Little Mao Qi. Qin Tian also had someone notify von Falkenhain, asking him to support him on this issue.
Berlin, the office of Kaiser Wilhelm II. Although, it\'s already late at night. However, William II did not rest, but continued to deal with official duties. It is not so easy to manage such a huge empire. Even though William II boasted that he had extraordinary talents, he still needed to spend a lot of time on official duties.
"Your Majesty, your coffee is ready." Essen von Jonalet walked in with a cup of coffee.
"Put it on the table!" William II didn\'t even raise his head.
However, he soon noticed that after Essen von Jonareit put down the coffee, he didn\'t leave.
"Is there anything else?" William II raised his head and asked. For this playmate who grew up with him since he was a child, William II has no airs of the emperor at all.
"Your Majesty, Crown Prince Oscar seems to be in trouble. Here is a telegram from him." Essen von Jonneret handed the telegram to William II.
William II received the telegram, and soon his face became very ugly.
"Damn it, that Plitvician guy, who gave him the guts to provoke the imperial prince?" William II was furious. Even though Prittwitz is his favorite, he is still very dissatisfied now.
"However, Oscar seems to have gone too far. Prittwitz just missed the ceremony and dinner to welcome him, so should he be transferred?" William II obviously thought that Qin Tian had gone too far.
"Your Majesty, His Majesty the Crown Prince is still young, and he is only twenty years old this year. Young people, it is inevitable that you will be a little more arrogant. However, this time, Prittwitz did something that should not be done, and His Majesty should not rely on His Majesty to treat him Even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince doesn’t pay attention to his trust.” Essen von Jonalet said. The Jonalet family has a close relationship with Qin Tian, so of course he wants to stand by Qin Tian\'s side and speak for Qin Tian.
King William II frowned, as if he was thinking about how to deal with it.
"You mean, should I agree to Oscar\'s request?"
"Your Majesty, the first time His Royal Highness took over the military power of a legion is the time when you need your support. Prittwitz\'s behavior is undoubtedly a blow to His Highness\'s prestige. His Royal Highness transferred Prittwitz from the 8th The legion has no choice but to maintain his prestige in this way. Otherwise, it will be difficult for His Highness to gain respect in the 8th legion." Essen von Jonalet suggested.
"If Plittwitz is transferred from the 8th Army, he will also lose face." William II said.
After all, Plittwitz was also one of William II\'s favorite courtiers.
Essen von Jonareit fell silent. The words have already reached this point, if he said more, I am afraid that not only will he not be able to help Qin Tian, but it will have the opposite effect.
King Wilhelm II thought about it, and then asked: "Is Prittwitz really sick this time when he returns to Berlin?"
"Your Majesty, as far as I know, General Plittwitz was not sick at all. After returning to Berlin, he went directly to the home of the Chief of Staff. It is said that the two drank until late." Essen von Joner Wright said.
Suddenly, William II\'s face became even uglier. If Plittwitz was really ill and returned to Berlin for medical treatment, then it is undoubtedly understandable that he was absent from Qin Tian\'s welcome ceremony. However, that now appears to be clearly not the case. Moreover, he also went to Little Maoqi\'s house to drink. It was hard not to make William II wonder whether all this was discussed between Little Maoqi and Prittwitz.
Although William II favored little Moltke and Plittwitz, it did not mean that he could condone their misconduct, especially when he bullied his son, the crown prince of the empire, which made him even more unacceptable.
Even if he is the most trusted subject, but a subject is always a subject, how could he turn around and bully his master?
"Let little Mao Qi come to see me immediately. In addition, let the Minister of War come too." William II ordered.
Now, William II has made up his mind and wants to help Qin Tian again. Since Qin Tian wanted to use Plitvice to establish his own prestige, then as a father, he naturally couldn\'t hold back by saying anything.
