BXBX NOVEL Chapter 226: Battle of the Marne (seeking monthly ticket)
Other people also complimented Qin Tian. Actually, that\'s hardly a compliment either. Qin Tian\'s performance was indeed very dazzling.
Although little Moqi was smiling, his heart became more and more uncomfortable. Looking at the compliments on those guys\' faces, he knew that Qin Tian\'s influence in the military would become bigger and bigger. With Qin Tian\'s victory on the battlefield, this will make Qin Tian\'s position unshakable.
"No, I can\'t go on like this. I have to find a way to stop that guy\'s upward trend. Otherwise, I\'m finished." Xiao Maoqi secretly thought.
Based on the enmity between him and Qin Tian, Xiao Maoqi knew that after Qin Tian took power, the first thing he would do was to kick him from the position of chief of the general staff and replace him with von Falkenhein Enter that guy. Little Mao Qi has always been very clear about von Falkenhain\'s thoughts. However, relying on his personal relationship with William II, he has been firmly suppressing von Falkenhein. Now, after Qin Tian became the crown prince, he undoubtedly became a huge variable. Von Falkenhain has a great possibility, relying on Qin Tian\'s support, to squeeze him out.
"Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, the current situation seems to be a bit bad for us!" After William II left, Lieutenant General Prittwitz immediately got into Little Moltke\'s office.
As a general of the Janissaries, Plittwitz still has a lot of power. However, he was still very unwilling. To be kicked out of the 8th Legion is a lifelong shame. This is especially true when the Eighth Army has won successive victories.
Lieutenant General Prittwitz even believed that without Qin Tian, he would have become the commander of the 8th Army now, his rank had been promoted to general, and he had led the 8th Army to defeat the Russians on the battlefield. With such credit, he even has the chance to be promoted to marshal. In his opinion, it was no big deal for Qin Tian to lead the 8th Army to defeat the Russian Army. The main reason is that the Russians are too weak. If it were him, he could easily do it. Therefore, his heart became even more unbalanced. Seeing that the marshal is promising, but his path to promotion has been blocked, he is still only a lieutenant general. This made Lieutenant General Prittwitz full of resentment towards Qin Tian.
"Hmm! No one thought that Oscar could actually lead the 8th Army to such a great victory on the Eastern Front." Xiao Maoqi\'s face was gloomy.
"Hmph! In my opinion, the Eighth Army\'s victory has nothing to do with Oscar. He is only in his twenties. Could it be that he is really a genius? I don\'t believe there are any geniuses in this world." ...I think the reason why the 8th Army won the victory is entirely because the Russians are too weak. In addition, the generals of the 8th Army are still very capable." Prittwitz said disdainfully.
Little Maoqi glanced at Plitvich and sighed inwardly.
Although Xiao Maoqi considers himself an enemy of Qin Tian, he will not deliberately belittle Qin Tian, nor will he turn a blind eye to Qin Tian\'s ability. As an enemy, he also admired Qin Tian very much. Qin Tian is indeed a genius. Otherwise, it would be impossible to achieve so much in my twenties. Any one of these achievements, if it is an ordinary person, is enough to strive for it for a lifetime, and it may not be possible to achieve it.
"Your Excellency Chief of Staff, it can be seen that His Majesty the Emperor is paying more and more attention to Oscar. I think the word \'generation\' on his head will be removed soon, and he will become the real crown prince." Prithvi Lieutenant General Ci said.
Little Mao Qi nodded, he was very clear about the gradual change in William II\'s attitude. At the same time, he also knows. If Qin Tian changed from the acting crown prince to the real crown prince, then he would never have the chance to touch Qin Tian again. Even William II, whom he relied on the most, would never allow him to do that. At that time, not only his personal relationship with William II will be severed because of this. Even face the blow of William II.
"Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, have you decided what to do?" Lieutenant General Prittwitz urged. He was a little summoned, and Qin Tian\'s performance was getting better and better, which made him feel more and more desperate.
Xiao Maoqi nodded. He has been thinking of ways to deal with Qin Tian all along.
"With Oscar\'s current status and status, it is impossible for us to directly attack him, let alone make small moves. That is to provoke His Majesty\'s bottom line. Therefore, we can only defeat him in a dignified manner. The only way is to command the army, Winning greater victories on the Western Front will completely cover up his brilliance. In that case, His Majesty the Emperor may not pay too much attention to him. In addition, I hope His Royal Highness Crown Prince William can recover soon. As long as His Royal Highness Crown Prince William can Oscar came to his senses before becoming emperor, so it\'s hard to say who will succeed to the throne." Little Maoqi said.
Lieutenant General Prittwitz nodded, he knew that Little Mao Qi was telling the truth.
"Pray to God, pray that God will bless us! Otherwise, we will be finished." Little Maoqi said with a smile.
"God will definitely bless us." Lieutenant General Plittwitz seemed very confident.
On August 28, Little Moltke officially submitted the battle plan for the Battle of the Marne to William II. Xiao Maoqi is trying to launch the Battle of the Marne at the end of August or early September, in one fell swoop, in the south of the Marne and the Verdun area, and severely damage the British and French allied forces. It is best to annihilate the main force of the British and French allied forces in this battle. Advance to the city of Paris, and take Paris down in one go.
William II approved Moltke\'s battle plan, and he also hoped to get rid of France as soon as possible and win the war.
The German army began to actively mobilize, and the British and French allied forces were also on the verge of a formidable enemy. This battle will directly affect the fate of both sides. If Germany wins, the Anglo-French coalition forces will be miserable. After losing Paris, whether the French will have the courage to continue fighting is probably hard to say. And if the British and French allied forces win, Germany\'s attempt to quickly defeat France will be completely defeated.
