"Grand Admiral Count Tirpitz really took a big risk this time. My strong support for the development of Imperial Navy was not in vain!" Oscar couldn't help but sigh after hearing that Grand Admiral Count Tirpitz directly sent a Marine Division to Berlin.
Although, Grand Admiral Count Tirpitz is Imperial Navy Minister, and Empire is an absolute high-ranking official. However, it is undoubtedly very taboo to send troops to Berlin without the emperor's order. Once the responsibility is investigated, Grand Admiral Count Tirpitz will not be able to take it for granted. At worst, they may be dismissed from their posts, or at worst, they may be tried by a military court.
Of course, this is undoubtedly of great benefit to Oscar. By doing this, Grand Admiral Count Tirpitz is undoubtedly going to stand up for Oscar. Before you have the exact information, Grand Admiral Count Tirpitz can further investigate the situation by doing this.
Several Army Group Commander fighting in France rushed to Versailles overnight after receiving orders from Oscar. Fortunately, France is not big. Several legions are actually not far from Versailles, only a few hours' drive away.
At 5 o'clock in the morning, several legions Commander arrived at Versailles after a long and dusty journey. Everyone's faces were full of tiredness. After all, most of these legions Commander are already quite old. Except for the 6th Group Commander Rupprecht Prince and the Army Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Ludendorff who commanded 8th Army Corps on behalf of Oscar, most of them were in their fifties or sixties. Everyone was a little surprised that Oscar summoned them in such a hurry. After all, the current war in France is already very beneficial to German military. Nothing big should happen.
"Crown Prince, what happened?" General Kluck asked.
Everyone else's eyes were also focused on Oscar. From the stern expression on Oscar's face, everyone felt that something big had happened.
"Everyone, Berlin has rebelled. Imperial Guard has launched a mutiny. Naval Ministry and General Staff Headquarters have both been captured by the Rebel Army. Your Majesty cannot be contacted. It is estimated that the palace has also fallen." Oscar said.
"What? How is this possible?" Several generals looked in disbelief.
"Your Highness, is this not a joke? We are fighting on the front line, and Europe are fighting many powerful countries that are no match for us. Now, Imperial Guard in the capital has launched a mutiny?" General Bülow couldn't laugh or cry.
Other generals also expressed their own questions. After all, Imperial Guard is German Emperor Wilhelm II's confidant. How could they launch a mutiny? This is so weird.
"Because the information obtained is limited, I don't know what the situation is. However, a few hours ago, I received Telegram from Berlin. Telegram was sent in the name of Your Majesty, claiming that Your Majesty was seriously ill and asked me to rush back to Berlin immediately. When I was about to leave, Your Majesty's housekeeper sent a message saying that a mutiny broke out in Imperial Guard and the palace was under attack. "Oscar said.
"Trap, Your Highness. This is definitely a trap. Those guys really betrayed Empire. Letting Your Highness return to Berlin at this time is to do harm to Your Highness!" Rupprecht Prince said immediately.
"Yes, Your Highness. They want to harm you." Even a fool can see such a plan, let alone generals like them who have been commanding troops outside all year round.
"I also know that this is a trap. But, Berlin, I have to go! Your Majesty and Empress have both fallen into the hands of the Rebel Army, and they don't know whether they will live or die. Besides, if I don't return Berlin, how can the rebellion be put down?" Oscar's eyes flashed with murderous intent. Obviously, he had already murderous intentions towards those rebels.
"Your Highness, I will go back with you. Deploying two Infantry Division from the front line and going back together will be enough to put down the rebellion." General Kluck said immediately.
Other generals also asked for orders. After all, putting down the rebellion is also a great achievement.
"Everyone, I have made arrangements to put down the rebellion. Grand Admiral Count Tirpitz has sent an Marine Division to Berlin. In addition, I have dispatched an Infantry Division and an Armored Division from 9th Army Corps to rush to Berlin. I think there will be no problem at all with two Infantry Division plus one Armored Division to deal with Imperial Guard!" Oscar said.
"Your mission is still to defeat Anglo-French Allied Forces on French front. No matter what the domestic situation is, the war will continue. We have paid a huge price to win this war. We must not give up halfway!" Oscar said.
"Yes, Your Highness." Several legions Commander nodded. Although they really want to follow Oscar back to the country to put down the rebellion. But they know that the current battle situation on the front line is tense, and they cannot do without them.
In addition, they also know that Oscar has sent two Infantry Division and one Armored Division to Berlin. So, Rebel Army there probably can't make any waves.
"Your Highness, after catching those damn Rebel Army, we must not let them go lightly." General Hutier said.
"Yes, Your Highness. Hang all those behind the scenes!" General Dithfurth also said.
They fought hard against the enemy on the front lines, and those guys launched a rebellion in the rear, stabbing them in the back! This naturally makes them very angry.
"I won't make it easy for them!" Oscar said.
At this moment, Major General Manstein walked in with an ugly look on his face.
"Your Highness and 4th Army Corps have moved. Their troops are preparing to leave. According to the intelligence we have received, they are preparing to withdraw to the country." Major General Manstein reported.
Oscar's face suddenly became very ugly. 4th Army Corps wants to withdraw to the country at this time, so it is natural to imagine what the purpose is.
"Damn it, why would Duke of Württemberg return to China at this time? It turns out he wants to launch a rebellion!" General Kluck cursed.
"Your Highness, 4th Army Corps must not be allowed to return to China. Otherwise, the situation will become even more chaotic!" General Hutier also said with a serious face.
Oscar nodded. If it was just the Imperial Guard rebellion, then Imperial Guard with only about 20,000 people would be nothing at all. The troops he sent were enough to crush those Rebel Army. However, if 4th Army Corps also participates, it will be completely different. 4th Army Corps has 200,000 people. Even if they lost a lot in the previous battle, there are still more than 100,000 left.
