Chapter 498： So be it! (1/2)

Now the situation is very clear. Prussian companies are sharing the market with the Bavarian royal family in the name of cooperative research and development. In return, Bavaria has given some help and support in the reserve army and financial financing. With only armored vehicles, Bavaria can get a slightly stronger one-third of the profit. Then it will drive the development of other industries, such as trailers, engines, and machinery manufacturing. If there is to be real cooperation, then these aspects must be discussed. Generally speaking, the prince is quite satisfied, but in some aspects, the prince still wants to fight for it.

To be honest, since the prince decided to let Bavaria take a share of the fruits of victory on the eastern battlefield in the future, the prince has been making various preparations, wanting to make the Kaiser acquiesce in the expansion of Bavaria and let his own Wife ascends to the throne of Austria, it is impossible to not have enough strength, relying solely on the Austrians is not enough, and the original size of Bavaria's army is not good, after all, it now only accounts for less than 20% of the imperial army. This weight is still low!

Since nominally it is impossible not to expand the organization of their troops, they can only use their heads in terms of form. For example, an armored battalion in Prussia has 45 tanks of various types, and the prince can let an armored battalion in Bavaria get it. To 60 cars...

This seems to be a bit over, but in fact it is normal for troops to be overstaffed or missing. For example, most of the German armored units in World War 2 were missing, and the super-compiled, for example, the Grand German Division during the Battle of Kursk, If I remember correctly, all Panther tanks were incorporated into the Grand German Division. So now the question is, why does Prussia have to accept the small establishment and allow Bavaria to maintain the large establishment?

The original is very simple. In terms of the current military scale and economic level, the situation in Bavaria is much better than that of the German central government. Except for Prussia, which feeds larger troops with a smaller proportion of funds, almost all of the German navy is Germany. The central government is building, and other German kingdoms have invested very little for this, so Bavaria can enter as many armored units as possible for each army, which Prussia can never do.

To give an example of an image point, for example, Prussia has raised a 500,000 army with 1 million marks, while Bavaria has raised a 100,000 army with 30 marks. The funds allocated to each military unit are obviously different! The prince has always planned to do some tricks in the establishment...

”I want to take the lead in armored force construction.” The prince thought for a while and said.

”What do you mean?” Arnold Siemens was suddenly alert. Although the rise of the Siemens family is closely related to politics, Arnold himself does not deal with politicians less, but he only knows that some things are beyond their reach!

”Now Prussia has not conducted any research on the armored forces, and the Kingdom of Bavaria has undoubtedly come to the fore. Therefore, I hope that the specific preparation and construction plan can follow our opinions.” The prince explained.

”This has nothing to do with us, we are just businessmen.” Arnold himself seemed to refuse. ”And this kind of thing will be very resistant to the Kaiser.”

”Some of the things you have done are already very resistant to the Kaiser. In other words, what we are talking about now makes Germany very dissatisfied. Your purpose is to make money and put the country's funds in your pockets in the name of military expansion. It is certainly wrong to restrain, but at the same time, your approach is actually not appropriate. Is it true?”
