The Second Reich: Beginning with the Prince of Prussia

After listening to Andrews's explanation, Prince Karl was silent for a while, then nodded and said:

"What else can be done for the Father, I will do everything for you!"

He didn't say much, but his attitude was extremely resolute.

If someone really wants to do something to his son, then even if he gives up his old life, he will have to fight with the other party!

"Thank you, father, but things shouldn't be so bad, and I have other arrangements on Bai Lin's side. "

......

March 8, 1788, Second Empire, capital Bolin.

In the palace of the Imperial Prime Minister Bismarck, the Second Imperial Prime Minister Bismarck's face showed a rare trace of nervousness and anxiety.

This is a subordinate who hurriedly walked in from the twilight.

Without waiting for the other to speak, Bismarck grabbed the other man's hand and asked:

"How's it going?

"I didn't see His Majesty in person, Empress Augusta sent the Praetorian Guard to control the entrance and exit of the City Palace, blocked the news, and we couldn't get in!"

"Did you tell the Praetorian Guards that I sent you?"

"Well, I said it, but the forbidden 26 guards still refuse to let go!"

The man shook his head, looking very angry:

"Prime Minister, I think something must have happened in the palace, otherwise, why is it the order issued by the empress and not the emperor himself?

Besides, why did you send the Praetorian Guards to seal off the palace?"

Although he did not see the emperor himself, from the tense atmosphere inside and outside the city palace, this subordinate still sensed something.

Bismarck was quite angry in his heart, the Praetorian Guard was loyal to the emperor and obeyed the emperor's orders, but they should not stop their own people.

The Emperor's trust in himself, and his privilege to enter and leave the palace freely in the past, these Praetorian Guards all saw it, and it was impossible not to know it.

But now, they still block their own people and don't let him in.

This is so abnormal!

Considering the emperor's age, Bismarck suddenly had some kind of ominous premonition in his heart.

Could it be that something is wrong with His Majesty the Emperor's body?

"Prepare the car, I'm going to go to the palace in person!"

Since it was not possible to send his subordinates over, Bismarck decided to go in person, he wanted to see if the other party dared to obstruct him!

......

Bai Lin, City Palace.

Empress Augusta Victoria, the wife of Emperor William I, was sitting in a wheelchair, watching the royal physicians come and go.

Her eyes were hollow, as if she was thinking back to the path that their husband and wife had traveled along the way in the past sixty years.

The emperor's sudden illness caught Empress Augusta a little off guard.

She originally thought that her frail and sickly self should be the one who left first, but she didn't expect that the emperor's pace was more hurried than her.

"Her Royal Highness the Queen, the imperial doctors have seen it. "

"How, what did they say?"

"They say Your Majesty may not survive tomorrow......"

Although she was mentally prepared, the maid's words still made her feel very sad.

Is her husband about to leave her?

"Nicholas and Victor, are they here?"

Nicholas was the former Crown Prince Frederick and the only son of her and William I, who was previously suffering from throat cancer and was being treated at sunset.

And Victor is the son of Crown Prince Frederick, the historical Wilhelm II, who is currently settling in the Dutch Kingdom.

After learning the news that the emperor was seriously ill, Empress Augusta immediately informed the two men by telegram. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

It was the last time they rushed back to see their father and grandfather, and it was also the last time to help them.

After all, the current crown prince is not in Bailin now, so there is no definite number on who will win the throne.

"His Royal Highness Nicholas has already bought a ticket, but it will not arrive until the day after tomorrow at the earliest, and His Highness Victor has already taken the train to Bailin, and he should be able to arrive tomorrow morning. "

The maid was brought by Augusta from the Kingdom of Saxony and was her confidant, so Augusta ordered her to do many things.

"Is there a response from Saxony?"

Because the sun never sets on Princess Victoria, Augusta has average feelings for his son, but he is very fond of his eldest grandson, Wilhelm II.

And now the situation is that Wilhelm II is closer to Bolin and is the most likely to arrive first.

Therefore, she naturally hopes to support her grandson to ascend the throne and keep the throne of their family.

However, Wilhelm II was too young to have the prestige and deep roots in the army like his father's.

If he returned to Bai Lin alone, it would not have any effect at all.

Although they can control the Praetorian Guard, the Praetorian Guard is at the emperor's orders after all, and it is their duty to let them protect the safety of the palace, but let them participate in the coup d'état, I am afraid that they will not agree.

In this case, a strong external force must help Wilhelm II in order to succeed in seizing power.

The three major armies of the empire were stationed far from the capital, and their mobilization required orders from the General Staff and the War Department.

The commander of the Second Legion was Prince Frederickar, who would never have been involved in the coup, so the Second Legion could have been ignored.

There are only the two main forces of the First and Third Legions that can be wooed, but the Empress and Wilhelm II don't have much influence in these two armies, so she can't count on these two armies.

In this case, she can only start with other kingdoms.

The Kingdom of Saxony is very close to Bolin, two hundred kilometers to the south of Bolin.

If you transfer troops from Saxony, it will only take half a day to reach Bolin.

At that time, Wilhelm II also happened to be in 170, and if the two sides joined forces and entered the city together, they would immediately be able to control the entire Bailin and allow Wilhelm II to ascend the throne smoothly.

As long as Wilhelm II succeeded in his coronation, the time would come to order the First and Third Legions in the name of the Emperor to march to East Prussia, where the Second Army was based, even if Frederick Carr and Andrews were not happy.

I'm afraid I will also have to accept the reality and admit the results of this coup!

Empress Augusta was born into a noble family in the Kingdom of Saxony and was related to the current king of Saxony, Albert I.

She had promised to return to Albert I the lands that Prussia had taken from the Kingdom of Saxony, thus agreeing to send the Saxon Royal Guards Division and the 9th Infantry Division to Berlin.

If the coup was successful, the Kingdom of Saxony would also benefit enormously, so she was confident that the Saxons would do their best.

Things have come to this point, and Queen Augusta has done everything she can.

Now she could only wait patiently, waiting for Wilhelm II and the army of Saxony to enter the city!

However, in her heart, there was still a strong feeling of unease.

Something seems to be missing!

Moreover, will the crown prince of East Prussia really accept his fate so obediently?

At this moment, there was a cry from inside the palace, and someone was heard shouting:

"Your Majesty, I'm dead!".
