Minister of War and Chief of Staff Feng? Field Marshal Falkenhayn is a little unhappy about the expansion of Marine Corps. There will always be some conflicts between the military services. Although, Marine Corps, even after expansion, is far from comparable to the army. After all, the Army now has 12 legions.
However, although Feng Field Marshal Falkenhayn was wary of the expansion of Marine Corps, he had to admit that Marine Corps's performance during the landing operation was indeed very good. If it weren't for Marine Corps, German Army would have paid a heavy price in the battle just now with landing in Britain.
However, Feng Falkenhayn also made up his mind and could only allow Marine Corps to expand to ten divisions. If Marine Corps wants to further expand the army, he will not agree to it at all.
"Everyone, this war is over. Empire has also achieved his wish and became the world overlord. In order to commend the officers and soldiers for their heroic fighting and to demonstrate Empire's powerful force, I decided to hold a grand Military Parade at Berlin. Let the whole world see the powerful military power of Germany, and let them be afraid of the German Empire! Let the people of the German Empire see with their own eyes how powerful their Empire is!" said Oscar.
"Military Parade?" Military and Political Ministers all looked at each other. They all know what Military Parade is, but if they follow the requirements of Oscar, the scale will be too big. Again, that's a lot of money.
Imperial Prime Minister Bülow opened his mouth, trying to persuade. However, seeing the excited expression on Oscar's face, he had no choice but to swallow back the words that were already on his lips.
Empire Since this war has been won, it is completely appropriate to show off the strong military power.
"Okay, Your Majesty, Cabinet supports holding a Military Parade. You can invite all the envoys from other countries to the Empire, or you can also invite Führer from other countries to participate. Empire has now replaced Britain as the world's hegemon, letting them see how powerful Empire is, which is also very helpful for stabilizing Empire's Hegemonic Status!" Oscar said.
"Well, let's do it! Führer Falkenhayn, Military Parade will be left to you. We must let other countries see how powerful Empire is!" Oscar said excitedly.
Now German Empire is the most powerful country in the world. The military strength is enough to crush any other country. After winning a big victory, Oscar would feel sorry for themselves if they didn't take this opportunity to give Military Parade a good show. Of course, Oscar also misses Military Parade from another time and space very much. The majestic and upright posture and vigorous and neat steps made his blood boil.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Feng Field Marshal Falkenhayn nodded. He naturally fully agrees with holding Military Parade and demonstrating Empire's military power.
"As for Your Majesty and Military Parade, only the Army and Army Air Corps can participate, and nothing will happen without our Navy! I strongly request that a Naval Review be held at Wilhelmshaven. Let other countries know that Imperial Navy is also the number one in the world!" Field Marshal Count Tirpitz, the First Sea Lord jumped out.
Since Military Parade is being held, and everyone is in the limelight, naturally the Army cannot take advantage of it alone, the Navy should also take care of it!
When Qin Tian thought about it, this was indeed the case. Whether it is the Imperial Army or the Navy, both are number one in the world, and they are important guarantees of force to maintain the Empire's world hegemony. When a military parade is held for the army, the navy naturally cannot treat them badly. It needs a bowl of water to be balanced.
"Well, after Military Parade is held at Berlin, Naval Review will be held at Wilhelmshaven!" Oscar said.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Grand Admiral Count Tirpitz replied excitedly. He made up his mind that this time he must prepare Naval Review well so that other countries can respect the powerful German Navy.
The time for Military Parade is set for next month, December 18th. Two days later, on December 20, Naval Review was conducted at Wilhelmshaven.
After the matter was settled, Imperial Army and the navy began to get busy. Each army group of the army needs to select troops to participate in Military Parade, and also needs to conduct long-term rehearsals.
Although the Navy's Naval Review is a little simpler, it will also take a lot of time to return German homeland from warships scattered around the world. What's more, some of German Navy's secret weapons, such as aircraft carriers, will not appear in this Naval Review.
German Foreign Ministry sent invitation letters to other countries, requesting Monarch and national Führer from other countries to participate in Germany's Military Parade.
Now Germany is the world hegemon. Almost all other countries that received invitations did not reject Germany's invitation. People have been sent to attend this Military Parade. Because it will be held in a month, countries farther away set off immediately after receiving the invitation.
For example, Island Nation, those participating in this Germany Military Parade are Crown Prince Hirohito and Minister of Foreign Affairs Kato Takaaki. There is something wrong with Island Nation Emperor's brain. If he is asked to represent Island Nation in Germany's Military Parade, they are still afraid of trouble. If this causes any diplomatic disputes, it will be troublesome. Although Crown Prince Hirohito is only 14 years old, he is mature and smart. There is no problem representing the Island Nation royal family.
President of the United States Woodrow? Wilson will not participate in Military Parade this time, but will let Secretary of State Bryan do it for him. After all, the current United States will undoubtedly be the main competitor of Germany in the next stage. Although the two sides did not openly disagree with each other, everyone knew what was going on, so naturally there was nothing to be polite about.
As an ally of Germany, Austria-Hungary was still represented by Crown Prince Karl. After all, Austrian Emperor Franz Joseph I did not have long to live. Crown Prince Karl is basically responsible for all major national affairs now. Of course, although Crown Prince Karl has not yet ascended the throne, he has gradually taken control of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. However, his hatred of Germany did not change much because of this. On the contrary, it became even worse.
Buru also received the invitation, although they were hostile to the whole world. But I have a pretty good relationship with my neighbor Germany. Comrade Joseph will serve as the special envoy of Ulyanov, attend this Military Parade, and have secret talks with German Emperor Qin Tian.
As for other small countries, almost all countries Führer attended. Now that Germany is the world's hegemon, of course they need to hug Germany's thick thighs!
