Long before the war broke out, when Oscar's German Arms Company produced a series of advanced weapons, German Army specifically recommended that German Army purchase those weapons and equipment to enhance the firepower of the troops.

But unfortunately, Moltke the Younger blocked this purchase plan due to personal reasons at that time. Although, due to pressure, I purchased some, it was only a small part. These weapons and equipment were evenly distributed to the various troops on the Western Front. Although, it played a certain role in improving the firepower of the troops. However, because the quantity was too small, it did not have a very obvious effect.

"If the troops on the Western Front were also armed according to 8th Army Corps, maybe we would have defeated Anglo-French Allied Forces, right?" Wilhelm II was extremely angry. His trust in Moltke the Younger has completely disappeared. In his opinion, if it were not for Moltke the Younger, maybe German military would have won the victory on the Western Front, and would not be in an increasingly disadvantaged situation like now.

"Maybe it's time to replace Moltke the Younger. His existence will not be of any benefit to the German Empire in winning future wars." Wilhelm II thought secretly. Although, Moltke the Younger was once his friend. However, in the face of the Empire's great cause, friendship can definitely be abandoned.

"Father Emperor, if we can cooperate with the Austro-Hungarian Empire and eliminate Russians's Southwestern Front on the Eastern Front, this will cause the Russian army to suffer unprecedented heavy losses. Especially their elite standing army, which is almost completely lost. Even if they mobilize and arm more troops, they will all be the same. It is undoubtedly very difficult for these troops with weak combat effectiveness to pose a threat to the Empire. This can also free up a large number of the Austro-Hungarian Empire troops, whether they are deployed on the southern front or remain on the eastern front to guard Germany people, "Oscar continued.

Austro-Hungarian Empire indeed performed very poorly in this war. Not only were they defeated by Russians on the Eastern Front, but they still did not win the war with Serbia on the Southern Front. Although, the troops they dispatched were two or three times the size of Serbia, and their weapons and equipment were much more advanced than Serbia's army. However, it was still like this. This makes Oscar have to admit that none of Germany's allies really know how to fight, almost all of them are pig teammates!

This means that Germany cannot expect much help from these allies at all. If they don't hold them back, God will bless them.

And Germany, like a lone hero, has to fight against the whole world with the power of one country. Under such circumstances, if Germany can win, then it is really a ghost.

Wilhelm II nodded and expressed support for Oscar's Eastern Front strategy.

"Father Emperor, in addition, we are still on the Eastern Front, preparing some secret means. You know, over the years, I have been secretly supporting Russian Bolshevik Party. The situation in Russia's country is very bad. Tsarist government's brutal rule has made many Russians dissatisfied. Now, on the battlefield, Russian Army was defeated one after another and suffered heavy losses. This will make Russia's domestic conflicts more acute. Perhaps, Russia will have civil strife. This will be of great benefit to the German Empire." Oscar continued.

Wilhelm II was stunned at first, but then his face became ecstatic.

Oscar is supporting Russian Bolshevik Party, and he knows this. Although, he didn't have a good impression of Russian Bolshevik Party, and even warned Oscar not to let Russian Bolshevik Party develop into Germany. However, if Russian Bolshevik Party can really mess up Russia, this will undoubtedly be great news for the German Empire. Russia is experiencing civil strife. No matter what, the war may not be able to continue. In this case, Eastern Front from Germany can completely resolve the crisis. They no longer have to worry about fighting on two fronts. You can put more effort into Western Front and strive to win on Western Front.

"Very good, very good. Oskar, we need to continue to strengthen our support for Russian Bolshevik Party. It is as close as possible to help them launch an uprising in Russia. This will be crucial for the German Empire." Wilhelm II said.

"Yes, Father Emperor!" Oscar nodded.

"Your Majesty, once civil strife breaks out in Russia, we can completely solve Eastern Front. At that time, if we attack Western Front with all our strength, we may not be able to completely defeat Anglo-French Allied Forces and win the war." Feng Falkenhayn also said.

Wilhelm II nodded, he thought so too.

"Father Emperor, if we can unite with the Austro-Hungarian Empire to eliminate Southwestern Front of Russians. Then, in order to stabilize the battle situation on the front line, there is a great possibility that Tsar Nicholas II will kill Guard 1st Army Corps was transferred from St. Petersburg. Without the threat of Guard 1st Army Corps, the possibility of Russian Bolshevik Party and other political forces of Russia launching an uprising will be very high," Oscar continued.

Wilhelm II and Feng Falkenhayn both became excited. For them, this is undoubtedly excellent news. Once successful, it is very likely that Germany will further gain an advantage on the battlefield.

"Oskar, what do you think of the situation on the Western Front?" Wilhelm II asked.

"Father Emperor, I have to say that Western Front fought very poorly. When the war broke out, we had such a huge advantage, but we failed to defeat France quickly. This was definitely a fatal mistake. Although, now I They still have the advantage. However, this advantage is quickly disappearing. Even if we try our best to defeat Anglo-French Allied Forces, it will definitely be a miserable victory, and the price we pay will not be small." Oscar said.

"Alas!" Wilhelm II sighed heavily. He obviously did not expect that the battlefield on the Western Front would evolve into what it is now. Before the war broke out, he was full of confidence in the war situation.

"The reason why Father Emperor and Western Front are like this is that Moltke the Younger, as the chief of general staff, bears unshirkable responsibility for this. I propose that Moltke the Younger be removed from his position as chief of general staff." Oscar said suddenly.

Wilhelm II's face became serious. He is also very dissatisfied with Moltke the Younger. However, if he was asked to make an immediate decision to replace Moltke the Younger, he still hesitated. "Oskar, I understand your attitude. I will think about it carefully!"
