Chapter 828: Military parade plan (seeking monthly ticket)
??Minister of War and Chief of the General Staff Marshal von Falkenhain was a little unhappy about the expansion of the Marine Corps. There will always be some contradictions between the military branches. Although, even after expansion, the Marine Corps is far from being comparable to the Army. After all, the Army now has 12 legions.
??However, although Marshal von Falkenhain was wary of the expansion of the Marine Corps, he also had to admit that the performance of the Marine Corps during landing operations was indeed very good. If it weren't for the Marine Corps, the German Army would have paid a high price in the battle that had just landed in the UK.
??However, von Falkenhain also made up his mind that he could only allow the Marine Corps to expand to ten divisions. If the Marine Corps wants to further expand its troops, he will not agree to anything.
"Everyone, this war is over. The empire has also become the hegemony of the world as it wished. In order to commend the bravery of the officers and soldiers and demonstrate the powerful force of the empire, I decided to hold a grand military parade in Berlin. Let the whole world Seeing Germany's powerful military power made them fear the German Empire! It also made the people of the German Empire see with their own eyes how powerful their empire is!" Qin Tian said.
?? "Military parade?" The military and political ministers all looked at each other. They all knew what the military parade was all about, but if it was held according to Qin Tian's request, the scale would be too large. Again, that's not a small expense.
??The Prime Minister of the Empire Biluo opened his mouth, wanting to persuade. However, seeing Qin Tian's excited expression, he had no choice but to swallow the words that had come to his lips.
??Since the empire has won this war, it is entirely appropriate to demonstrate its strong military power.
"Well, Your Majesty, the cabinet supports a military parade. You can invite all the envoys of other countries to the empire, or you can invite the heads of state of other countries to participate. The empire has now replaced Britain as the world's hegemony, let them see The strength of the empire is also very helpful for stabilizing the dominance of the empire!" Qin Tian said.
?? "Well, let's do this! Führer Falkenhain, you will be in charge of the military parade. We must let other countries see the strength of the empire!" Qin Tian said excitedly.
??The current German Empire is the most powerful country in the world. The military strength is enough to crush any other country. Taking advantage of the big victory, Qin Tian felt sorry for himself if he didn't take advantage of this opportunity to hold a military parade properly. Of course, Qin Tian also misses the military parade in another time and space very much. That majestic and tall figure, vigorous and neat steps made him excited.
?? "Yes, Your Majesty!" Marshal von Falkenhain nodded. He naturally fully agrees with holding a military parade to demonstrate the military power of the empire.
"Your Majesty, for the military parade, only the Army and the Army Air Force can participate, nothing to do with our navy! I strongly request that a parade be held in Wilhelmshaven. Let other countries know that the Imperial Navy is also the number one in the world !” Marshal Earl Tirpitz, Minister of the Navy, jumped out.
??Since it is a military parade, this kind of thing that everyone is in the limelight, naturally, the army cannot be alone, and the navy should also take care of it!
??When Qin Tian thought about it, it was indeed the case. Whether it is the imperial army or the navy, they are the number one in the world, and they are an important force guarantee for maintaining the imperial world's hegemony. To hold a military parade for the army, the navy naturally can't treat it badly, as long as the bowl of water is level.
?? "Well, after the military parade in Berlin, we will hold a ship review in Wilhelmshaven!" Qin Tian said.
?? "Yes, Your Majesty!" Marshal Earl Tirpitz replied excitedly. He made up his mind that this time he must prepare well for the ship review, so that other countries can stand in awe of the powerful German navy.
??The time for the military parade is set for next month, December 18. Two days later, on December 20, a ship review took place in Wilhelmshaven.
??After the matter was settled, the Imperial Army and Navy began to get busy. The various armies of the Army need to select troops to participate in the military parade, and at the same time, they need to conduct long rehearsals.
??Although the navy's ship review style is simpler, it will take a lot of time for warships scattered all over the world to return to Germany. What's more, some secret weapons of the German Navy, such as aircraft carriers, will not appear in this ship review.
??The German Ministry of Foreign Affairs sent invitations to other countries, asking the monarchs and heads of state of other countries to participate in this military parade in Germany.
?? Germany is now the hegemon of the world, and almost none of the other countries that received the invitation rejected Germany's invitation. People have been sent to participate in this military parade. Because it will be held in one month, countries farther away will set off immediately after receiving the invitation.
??For example, in the island country, Crown Prince Hirohito and Foreign Minister Takaaki Kato participated in the German military parade. The emperor of the island country has a problem with his mind. If he is allowed to represent the island country to participate in the German military parade, they are afraid that there will be troubles. If any diplomatic disputes are caused by this, then things will be troublesome. Although Crown Prince Hirohito is only 14 years old, he is mature and smart, and he has no problem representing the royal family of the island country.
??US President Woodrow Wilson will not participate in the military parade this time, but let Secretary of State Bryan do it for him. After all, the current United States will undoubtedly be Germany's main competitor in the next stage. Although the two sides did not tear each other up, everyone knew what was going on, so naturally there was nothing to be polite about.
?? As an ally of Germany, the Austro-Hungarian Empire was still represented by Crown Prince Karl on behalf of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. After all, Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria did not have a long life to live. The current national affairs are basically in charge of Crown Prince Karl. Of course, although Crown Prince Karl has not yet ascended the throne, he has gradually mastered the power of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. However, his attitude of hating Germany has not changed much because of this, but has intensified.
??Bu Russia also received an invitation, although they are hostile all over the world. But the relationship with Germany, a neighbor, is pretty good. Comrade Joseph will serve as Ulyanov's special envoy to attend this military parade and hold secret talks with Kaiser Qin Tian.
??As for other small countries, almost all heads of state attended. Now Germany is the hegemon of the world, of course they need to hug Germany's thick thighs!
