Iron Germany

Berlin, the mansion of Little Moltke.

After dinner, Xiao Moqi chatted with his family for a while, and then went to the office as usual. Although he has been dismissed, he still has great influence in the German Army. He can receive many battle reports here.

Although Qin Tian led the German army to an unprecedented victory in France. But Little Mao Qi did not admit defeat. He believed that his ability, at least in terms of military command, was much stronger than Qin Tian. In order to prove this point, Xiao Maoqi thought of a way, that is, he started to write a book. It is about to pass on your own military command ideas through books. He believes that people in future generations will be able to tell the difference.

That night, Little Mao Qi had just put on his reading glasses and was getting ready for work. But the waiter came to report, and Lieutenant General Prittwitz asked to see him.

Little Mao Qi frowned. Although his personal relationship with Lieutenant General Plitvice was not bad, after he was dismissed, Lieutenant General Plitvici seldom came to him. After all, Little Moltke, who lost his position as chief of the general staff, could no longer help Lieutenant General Prittwitz. At the same time, both of them were people who had a feud with Qin Tian. If they were in frequent contact, it was inevitable that Qin Tian would not hear about it. In that case, Qin Tian might have bad thoughts in his heart. This is undoubtedly not a good thing for both of them. Therefore, the two took the initiative to reduce their meetings.

Although he couldn't figure out why Lieutenant General Prittwitz was here so late, Little Moltke still asked the waiter to bring him to his office.

"Your Excellency, good evening!" Lieutenant General Prittwitz immediately greeted Little Moltke after seeing him. Little Mao Qi's title is earl, of course, he did not earn this title, but inherited it.

"Your Excellency, Lieutenant General, hello." Xiao Maoqi nodded.

"Your Excellency, I heard that you are writing a book on military command. I have been looking forward to when I can read your masterpiece." Lieutenant General Prittwitz said.

"Your Excellency, Lieutenant General, I'm just writing casually. It's hard to say whether it will be published or not." Xiao Maoqi shook his head modestly.

"With the Earl's military command ability, the book written will definitely be sought after by everyone. You know, there are still many people in the Imperial Army who respect the Earl. Even Falkenhein After the guy came to power, everyone was suppressed. However, everyone did not give up, and they are still waiting for the day when His Excellency the Earl can lead us again and achieve greater victories." Lieutenant General Prittwitz was very excited.

A gleam of relief flashed in Xiao Maoqi's eyes, he was undoubtedly very pleased to have so many supporters in the army. Of course, these people who are close to him are not in a very good situation now, and some even chose to retire. After von Falkenhain came to power, he would naturally clean up little Mao Qi's direct line. This is a very normal thing in the first place, and anyone who came on stage would definitely do that. But Xiao Maoqi felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

However, there is no hope for Xiao Moqi to come back to power. Now, Qin Tian's influence in the empire and the army is at its peak. Although von Falkenhain's ability was not very good, under his leadership, the army won one major victory after another. From the performance point of view, these are much better than when Mo Qi was in charge of the army. Ordinary people can't see the deep-seated things, they only think that Maoqi is poor, so he can't lead the army to victory. And von Falkenhain's ability is strong, so he can lead the army to victory. Coupled with the support of Qin Tian, ​​the crown prince of the empire, von Falkenhain's status is naturally as stable as Mount Tai.

"Your Excellency, Lieutenant General, I am now a dismissed person, and I don't want to think about those unrealistic things anymore." Xiao Maoqi shook his head. Although, in his heart, he is also very eager to take up the military post again, and it is best to be able to serve as the chief of the army's general staff again. Of course, he knew that this was impossible. If he insisted on finding a solution in that direction, it would cause dissatisfaction with Qin Tian and von Falkenhain. By then, he might be in big trouble. Therefore, for the sake of his own interests, even his own life, Xiao Maoqi can only suppress the unrealistic thoughts in his heart.

"Your Excellency, why do you want to belittle yourself? With your ability and qualifications, and your prestige in the army, absolutely no one can compare with you. I think you must still have a chance." will say.

Xiao Maoqi shook his head: "Forget it, Your Excellency the Lieutenant General. People should recognize the status quo clearly. Otherwise, they will only fall into crisis. I advise you, from now on, you'd better be more honest Right. Although, His Royal Highness may not embarrass you. However, there are many people who know about your holiday. Those who want to show their favor to His Royal Highness will inevitably not use this opportunity to deal with you. If I were you If that’s the case, it’s best to request to retire from active service immediately, leave Berlin, find a small place, and live in peace and stability.”

Prittwitz's face turned blue and white. Even though, he knew that little Maoqi was doing it for his own good. However, he was really not reconciled! He would not be willing to let him just give up the power in his hands and leave the bustling Berlin.

What's more, after meeting that person, a glimmer of hope has been rekindled in his heart.

"No, we haven't lost yet, we still have a chance, we can't just give up!" Lieutenant General Prittwitz said secretly.

Lieutenant General Prittwitz took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and began to organize his words. The main purpose of his coming to see little Maoqi this time is to persuade little Maoqi to act with them. After all, although Little Maoqi was dismissed, he still had unparalleled influence in the army. With little Maoqi joining them, the possibility of their success is undoubtedly much greater.

"Your Excellency, I am very unwilling. You know, the position of the commander of the 8th Army originally belonged to me. However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince suddenly intervened, so that I could not get this position. Otherwise, commanding the 8th Army I’m afraid I’m the one who made the 8th Army shine on the Eastern Front. Tell me, can I be willing?” Lieutenant General Prittwitz said with red eyes.
