Chapter 552: Mutation (400 votes plus updates)
Of course, this is undoubtedly of great benefit to Qin Tian. By doing this, Marshal Earl Tirpitz undoubtedly went to fight for Qin Tian. Before obtaining the exact information, Marshal Earl Tirpitz did this to further ascertain the situation.
Several group army commanders fighting in France rushed to Versailles overnight after receiving Qin Tian\'s order. Fortunately, France is not that big. Several legions are actually not far from Versailles, and it only takes a few hours to drive.
At 5 o\'clock in the morning, several legion commanders rushed all the way to Versailles. Everyone\'s faces were full of tiredness. After all, most of these legion commanders are not young. Except for Prince Ruprecht, the commander of the 6th Group, and Lieutenant General Ludendorff, the chief of staff of the 8th Army who commanded the 8th Army on behalf of Qin Tian, most of them were in their fifties or sixties. Everyone was a little surprised that Qin Tian summoned them in such a hurry. After all, the current war in France is already very beneficial to the German army. There shouldn\'t be anything major happening.
"His Royal Highness, has something happened?" Admiral Crook asked.
The gazes of other people also focused on Qin Tian. From the stern expression on Qin Tian\'s face, everyone also felt that something big had happened.
"Everyone, there is a rebellion in Berlin. The Imperial Guards have launched a mutiny. The Admiralty and the General Staff have been captured by the rebels. Your Majesty can\'t be contacted either. It is estimated that the imperial palace has also fallen." Qin Tian said .
"What? How is this possible?" The generals all had expressions of disbelief.
"Your Highness, this is not a joke, right? We are fighting on the front line, and we are fighting against many European powers that are not our opponents. Now, the Imperial Guard in the capital has launched a mutiny?" Admiral Bilo couldn\'t laugh or cry.
The other generals also expressed their own doubts. After all, the Janissaries were the confidants of Kaiser Wilhelm II, how could they launch a mutiny? This is so strange.
"Because I have limited information, I don\'t know what\'s going on. However, I received a telegram from Berlin a few hours ago. The telegram was sent in the name of His Majesty, declaring that His Majesty was seriously ill. , and asked me to rush back to Berlin immediately. When I was about to leave, His Majesty’s housekeeper, Kanjiao, sent someone to send a message, saying that a mutiny broke out in the Imperial Guards and the palace was under attack.” Qin Tian said.
"Trap, Your Highness. This is definitely a trap. Those guys really betrayed the empire. Letting His Highness go back to Berlin at this time is to harm His Highness!" Prince Ruprecht said immediately.
"Yes, Your Highness. They want to harm you." Even a fool can see such a strategy, let alone their generals who have been in command all year round.
"I also know that this is a trap. However, I have to go to Berlin! Your Majesty and the Queen have fallen into the hands of the rebels, and their lives are unknown. Besides, if I don\'t return to Berlin, how can the rebellion be put down?" ?” A murderous look flashed in Qin Tian’s eyes. Apparently, he had already planned to kill those rebels.
"Your Highness, I\'ll go back with you. Sending two infantry divisions from the front line to go back together is enough to put down the rebellion." Admiral Crook said immediately.
The other generals also asked for orders. After all, putting down the rebellion is also a great achievement.
"Everyone, I have already made arrangements to put down the rebellion. Marshal Earl Tirpitz has sent a marine division to Berlin. In addition, I have dispatched an infantry division and an armored division from the 9th Army to go to Berlin. Berlin is here. I think, two infantry divisions plus one armored division will have no problem dealing with the Imperial Guards!" Qin Tian said.
"Your task is still to defeat the British and French coalition forces on the French battlefield. No matter what the domestic situation is, the war must continue. We have paid a huge price to win this war. We must not give up halfway !” Qin Tian said.
"Yes, Your Highness." Several legion commanders nodded. Although they wanted to return to the country with Qin Tian to quell the rebellion. But they know that the current battle situation on the front line is tense, and they really cannot do without them.
In addition, they also knew that Qin Tian had sent two infantry divisions and one armored division to Berlin. Then, the rebels there probably won\'t be able to make waves.
"Your Highness, after catching those **** rebels, you must not let them go lightly." Admiral Howson said.
"Yes, Your Highness. Hang all those masterminds behind the scenes!" Admiral Dimlin also said.
They fought hard against the enemy on the front line, and those guys launched a rebellion in the rear. It was basically stabbing them in the back! This naturally couldn\'t make them very angry.
"I won\'t make it easy for them!" Qin Tian said.
At this moment, Major General Manstein walked in, his face a little ugly.
"Your Highness, there is a change in the 4th Army. Their troops are preparing to leave. According to the information we have received, they are preparing to withdraw to the country." Major General Manstein reported.
Qin Tian\'s complexion suddenly became very ugly. The 4th Army wants to withdraw to the country at this time, so it is naturally conceivable what the purpose is.
"Damn, I said how could the Duke of Württemberg return home at this time, so he wanted to launch a rebellion!" Admiral Crook cursed.
"Your Highness, the 4th Army must not be allowed to return home. Otherwise, the situation will become even more chaotic!" Admiral Howson also said with a serious face.
Qin Tian nodded. If it was just the rebellion of the Imperial Guards, then there were only about 20,000 Imperial Guards, which was nothing at all. The army he sent was enough to crush those rebels. However, if the 4th Army is also involved, it will be completely different. The 4th Army has 200,000 people. Even if it lost a lot in the previous battles, there are still more than 100,000.
