Chapter 557: Vulnerable (seeking monthly ticket)
This rebellion is undoubtedly an opportunity for Qin Tian. As long as he can take this opportunity to step down Crown Prince William in one fell swoop, it will be done once and for all.
In Qin Tian\'s heart, an idea also popped up. Now that the palace has been contributed by the rebels, I don\'t know what happened to William II. If he was accidentally injured or even killed during the rebellion. Then, history changed completely. As the crown prince, he can justifiably inherit the throne and become the emperor of the most powerful empire in the world.
You know, before Qin Tian always thought that if he wanted to inherit the throne, he might have to wait another twenty years. By that time, he was already in his fifties. But he did not expect that the current historical trend is completely different from what he is familiar with. It\'s no wonder, because of his appearance, the history has already been falsified beyond recognition.
Although William II is his own cheap father, it would be somewhat treasonous to want him to die. But this kind of thinking, like a weed, grows uncontrollably and rapidly. The taste of power is like a drug, once you get it, it\'s hard to get rid of it. The same is true for Qin Tian now. If he wanted to let him give up the power in his hands, he couldn\'t do it at all. He has already enjoyed all the tastes of power. If someone deprives him of his power, it will make him more uncomfortable than killing him.
If William II really died in this rebellion, it would undoubtedly be the best for Qin Tian. In this case, he would not have to wait another twenty years to become emperor.
Of course, Qin Tian didn\'t know that William II had indeed died as he wished. And was killed by Crown Prince William himself.
After Qin Tianxia ordered the force to quell the rebellion, Admiral Hindenburg and others immediately carried out his order. Major General Rommel\'s 9th Armored Division became the main force to quell the rebellion. More than 200 tanks, divided into multiple units, launched an attack on the predetermined target. The 1st Marine Division and the 101st Infantry Division cooperated with the 9th Armored Division.
Although, it is already night. However, field battles are nothing to the elite German army. On the contrary, the Praetorian Guards did not expect that the German army would launch an attack overnight, which meant that they could not resist it.
"Crunch! Crunch!"
The tracks of the tank crushed on the streets of Berlin, leaving deep ruts on the ground. The headlights of the tank were turned on. Because the information obtained is that the Guards are not equipped with anti-tank weapons, so these tanks do not have to be afraid of being destroyed. After all, they would definitely not have the guts to let those pampered Janissaries explode explosive packs or grenades and rush towards these tanks.
"Boom!"
A tank aimed at the barricades set up by the Janissaries on the street. A violent explosion sounded, and the barricade was blown apart at once.
Immediately, the infantry fighting behind the tanks, under the cover of their own fierce machine gun fire, launched an attack on the barricade.
"Da da da!"
The dense bullets fired by the heavy machine gun left trails of flames under the night.
Facing the army\'s tank attack, the Praetorian Guards simply couldn\'t resist it. The moment the barricade was blown down, he fled immediately.
The 9th Armored Division and 101st Infantry Division of the German Army and the 1st Marine Division launched a full-scale offensive throughout the city of Berlin. The imperial guards stationed in various important places in the city were attacked fiercely. They were defeated one after another with heavy casualties. More and more positions were recovered by the Germans.
The Army Staff Headquarters became an important location where the German army first recovered. Under the cover of more than a dozen tanks, an infantry battalion defeated the Praetorian Guards stationed here. At the last moment, the imperial guards stationed here chose to surrender. This is why a group of army generals, including the Minister of War and Chief of Staff von Falkenhain, who were imprisoned here, survived.
Of course, the guards who rebelled may not really dare to kill these senior generals.
Marshal von Falkenhain rushed to meet Qin Tian immediately after he got out of trouble.
After seeing that Marshal von Falkenhain was safe and sound, Qin Tian also breathed a sigh of relief. What he is most worried about is the safety of these important imperial ministers during the process of armed suppression.
Fortunately, it seems that these rebels have not yet reached the point of madness.
A few hours later, other important ministers of the empire were also rescued. When the rebellion broke out, senior officials, including the prime minister, were put under house arrest by the rebels.
Crown Prince William did not embarrass them. After all, once his mutiny is successful, he will have to rely on these people to continue to manage this huge empire. Perhaps, Crown Prince William did not expect that his mutiny would fail so quickly.
All the important officials of the empire who were rescued came to meet Qin Tian. On the one hand, they were grateful to Qin Tian for saving them. On the other hand, they were a little confused about this rebellion, and they didn\'t know why such a rebellion happened.
After learning that the rebellion was actually instigated by Crown Prince William, these important imperial ministers were even more stunned. It is indeed a miracle that the vegetative person wakes up. However, it was indeed beyond their expectations that Crown Prince William would do such a thing.
Of course, this is not incomprehensible. After all, the original crown prince belonged to Crown Prince William. But after waking up, everything changed. Not only is the position of crown prince gone, but there is even no chance to regain the position of crown prince. Under such circumstances, Crown Prince William would naturally choose to take the risk.
Everyone knows the character of Crown Prince William very well. He was originally, like William II, a headstrong and conceited person. It is only human nature to choose such an extreme method for the sake of one\'s own crown prince.
