Jagged Germany

Chapter 553: return to berlin

"Manstein, send me a telegram to the Deputy Commander and Chief of Staff of the 4th Army to come to Versailles to meet me immediately! Tell them that the 4th Army will immediately stop moving and return to its station. The Duke of Württemberg is suspected of participating in the rebellion , if they follow the order of the Duke of Württemberg, it will be tantamount to rebellion!" Qin Tian said with a serious face.

?? At this time, you have to be more ruthless. Otherwise, once the 4th Army is allowed to return to the country, the consequences will be disastrous.

?? "Yes, Your Highness." Major General Manstein immediately went to send a telegram. He also knew that the situation was urgent.

?? "Your Highness, we still need to make preparations early. If the 4th Army doesn't obey His Highness's order, the problem will be serious." Admiral Crook reminded.

?? "Yes, Your Highness. No one can guarantee whether the generals of the 4th Army participated in it." General Bi Luo also said.

?? "General Ludendorff, the 8th Army immediately turned around and went north, preparing to intercept the 4th Army. If they don't obey the order, I authorize you to launch an attack." Qin Tian ordered.

?? "Yes, Your Highness." Lieutenant General Ludendorff stood up and saluted before leaving immediately.

??Although, the strength of the 8th Army is similar to that of the 4th Army. The 8th Army was formed later than the 4th Army. However, after the 8th Army's strength has been reborn, it is far stronger than the 4th Army.

?? "General Crook, after the 8th Army is temporarily transferred, the battle against the British Expeditionary Force will rely on the 1st Army. If necessary, the attack can be suspended." Qin Tian said.

??After all, there are still more than 300,000 troops assembled by the British Expeditionary Force in Le Havre. In terms of strength, it is not much less than the 1st Army.

?? "Yes, Your Highness." Admiral Crook nodded.

"Okay, everyone. Go down and have a rest, and then return to your respective troops. I will deal with the rebellion with all my strength. And I will ensure that it will be quelled as soon as possible, and the country and the army will not be affected too much. And you What we have to do is to defeat our enemies on the front line and not give them any chance to take advantage of it." Qin Tian said.

?? "Yes, Your Highness." Several legion commanders replied.

??They all know that Qin Tian's arrangement is already the best. Although there was a rebellion, they all believed that it would not have much impact on the German Empire.

??The current task of the 4th Army is to ensure the safety of the army's logistics supply line and suppress the resistance forces in France. Therefore, their headquarters was located in Compiègne, a little further north.

??The Duke of Württemberg, the commander of the army group, has returned to the country, so now it is Lieutenant General von Fabeck, the deputy commander of the army group, and Lieutenant General Kurus, the chief of staff.

??The two received a telegram from the Duke of Württemberg at two o'clock in the morning. The Duke of Württemberg asked them to lead the troops back to the country immediately. Although, the two don't quite understand what's going on. However, they carried out the telegram from the Duke of Württemberg. After all, most of the members of the 4th Army came from the Kingdom of Württemberg.

?? "Report to the general, the 15th Army has completed preparations and is ready to go." A staff officer reported.

??However, Lieutenant Generals von Fabeck and Lieutenant General Kurus did not immediately issue an order to allow the departure. This made the staff officer a little puzzled. However, there was no urging.

"Kulus, I always feel that something is wrong this time! His Highness the Crown Prince's previous order was to let the 4th Army ensure the smooth flow of the logistics supply line. Your Excellency Commander, now let us go back to the country. But we did not Received an order from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. If we carry out the order of His Excellency the Commander in this way, once the Crown Prince pursues it, the problem may become serious." Lieutenant General von Fabeck said.

??Lieutenant General Kurus nodded: "Yes! This is really strange. Your Excellency Commander's order is indeed a bit confusing." Lieutenant General Kurus said.

?? "Kulus, do you think this will involve political struggle?" Lieutenant General Von Fabeck asked.

?? Lieutenant General Kurus' face suddenly changed. They are all soldiers and don't know much about political struggle. However, I know that every political struggle is cruel. Once involved, the consequences will be unimaginable, and if it is not done well, it will lose its life.

?? "Then do we still have to fulfill the orders of His Excellency the Commander?" Lieutenant General Kurus asked.

?? "This..." Lieutenant General Von Fabeck also hesitated.

"How about we send a telegram to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to inquire. After all, His Highness the Crown Prince is the commander of the Western Front, and can be regarded as our immediate superior. It is always right to ask his opinion." Feng ? Lieutenant General Fabeck said.

?? Lieutenant General Kurus nodded: "Okay, in this case, it is undoubtedly the safest."

??At this moment, a staff officer ran in anxiously.

?? "General, a telegram from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

?? Lieutenant General Von Fabeck and Lieutenant General Kurus immediately took the telegram, and the two got together to read the telegram. After reading the telegram, the faces of the two of them were already pale.

??The content of the telegram was precisely Qin Tian's request that their troops stop marching and return to the barracks. In addition, there is the involvement of the Duke of Württemberg in the rebellion.

?? Lieutenant General Von Fabeck and Lieutenant General Kurus were both shocked. Obviously, the Duke of Württemberg would actually participate in the rebellion, which was completely beyond their expectations.

?? "Kurus, what should we do now?" Lieutenant General von Fabeck wanted to cry but had no tears. They didn't even know that the Duke of Württemberg would participate in the rebellion, which made them feel like they had encountered an indiscriminate disaster!

"It seems that we can't follow the command of His Excellency Commander. What he did has nothing to do with us. We can't get involved because of it. That would be too unfair to us It is." Lieutenant General Kurus said.

?? Lieutenant General Von Fabeck nodded again and again.

??Under Qin Tian's strict order, it was obvious that they had decided to betray the Duke of Württemberg's order.

?? Lieutenant General Von Fabeck and Lieutenant General Kurus quickly sent a telegram to the Western Front Command, informing Qin Tian that they had ordered the army to stop their operations, and they both rushed to Versailles to see Qin Tian.

?? After meeting Lieutenant Generals von Fabeck and Lieutenant Kurus and knowing that they did not know, Qin Tian did not hold them accountable. Instead, they are required to continue to perform the task of ensuring the safety of logistical supply lines. After all, millions of troops are fighting in France, and the safety of the logistics supply line cannot be underestimated.

?? After that, Qin Tian set off for Berlin. And this has already delayed a lot of time.
