"Your Majesty, is it really necessary to use force against the Austro-Hungarian Empire? Although the strength of the Austro-Hungarian Empire is far inferior to the Empire, they are still a powerful country! The World War has only ended for a year. If another war breaks out, it will be a huge threat to the Empire." I am afraid it will cause adverse effects. It would be best if this issue can be resolved peacefully." Prime Minister Bilo suggested.

After all, the Austro-Hungarian Empire was a powerful country with a population of more than 40 million and a well-developed industry. Although, there were many internal contradictions in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and the combat effectiveness of the army was not strong. However, if Germany invades the Austro-Hungarian Empire, no one can guarantee whether the Austro-Hungarian Empire will launch a strong counterattack. Once the war has turned into a protracted war, the consequences will be very difficult to say.

"Peaceful solution? I'm afraid it will be difficult, or even impossible. As long as Crown Prince Karl does not change his hostility to the German Empire, then they will pose a threat to the Empire. Even if it is to sign a treaty or something, They are completely useless." Qin Tian shook his head. He had already made up his mind that once the Austro-Hungarian Empire dared to withdraw from the Allies, then he would use this as an excuse to attack the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

"Your Majesty, once the war between us and the Austro-Hungarian Empire breaks out, will the United States and other countries take the opportunity to declare war on the Empire? If it turns into a world war again, it will be somewhat disadvantageous for the Empire." ’” Foreign Secretary Wahit said.

"Of course, the United States and other countries will have this plan. But they will not have this opportunity. Although the Austro-Hungarian Empire is a powerful country, they will not be able to last long under the condition that the Empire is fully committed. Unless the Austro-Hungarian Empire They can withstand our attack on the battlefield. Otherwise, they would never have the guts to intervene." Qin Tian said very confidently.

Qin Tian is very confident in the combat effectiveness of the German army. At the same time, he also believed that the combat effectiveness of the Austro-Hungarian army was still very rubbish. He even doubted whether the Austro-Hungarian army had the courage to resist the German attack. In that case, it would not be a delusion for Germany to quickly defeat the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

"Your Majesty, if we can quickly defeat the Austro-Hungarian Empire, we can give it a try!" Prime Minister Biluo said.

If the Austro-Hungarian Empire can be defeated, it will undoubtedly solve this trouble once and for all. This is undoubtedly very beneficial to Germany.

Qin Tian looked at Marshal von Falkenhain. It would undoubtedly be best for the military to answer this question.

"Your Majesty, Your Excellency Prime Minister. Once the empire really decides to use force against the Austro-Hungarian Empire, there will be no problem for the Imperial Army to defeat the Austro-Hungarian Empire within a month." Marshal von Falkenhain said.

"Where's the navy?" Qin Tian asked.

"Your Majesty, once the two countries go to war, the Imperial Home Fleet and the Indian Ocean Fleet will enter the Mediterranean to assist the Mediterranean Fleet and eliminate the Austro-Hungarian Navy!" Marshal Reinhard Scheer said.

Although, the Austro-Hungarian Empire purchased a number of capital ships from the Empire, and at the same time the self-built "Austro-Hungarian Sovereign Class" battleships have also entered service. However, compared with the German navy, the Austro-Hungarian navy is still too weak. Gathering three fleets, a total of 22 capital ships, and defeating the Austro-Hungarian Navy will be no problem at all. When necessary, the Imperial Navy's carrier-based aircraft units can also participate in the battle.

In addition, the beginning and end of the Mediterranean Sea are under the control of Germany, and the Mediterranean Sea is too small. It can be said that the Austro-Hungarian Navy had no room for maneuver in this battle.

Qin Tian nodded in satisfaction. Since the generals are confident in defeating the Austro-Hungarian Empire, this also means that his plan is likely to succeed.

"Actually, we only need to defeat Austria. The other states of the Austro-Hungarian Empire simply don't have the courage to fight against the empire. At that time, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs can send special envoys to secretly contact the other states that make up the Austro-Hungarian Empire. I think Well, many states will be very interested in being able to become independent. At that time, as long as they remain neutral, Austria will be powerless. Therefore, this time our plan will be very likely to succeed !” Qin Tian said.

The other military and political ministers also nodded repeatedly. The ministers of the military naturally hope that there will be a battle. Civil servants, too, supported war if it benefited the empire.

Austro-Hungarian Empire, Vienna, Schönbrunn Palace.

Austrian Emperor Franz Joseph I has not many days left. Even, the court doctor has asserted that His Majesty the Austrian Emperor will die soon. This made the entire upper echelons of the Austro-Hungarian Empire shrouded in gloom.

For the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the Austrian Emperor Franz Joseph I was the pinnacle of the sea. Without Franz Joseph I, the Austro-Hungarian Empire may not have much time before it collapses. Especially the Crown Prince Karl, who didn't know if his head was caught by the door, and he was hostile to the Austro-Hungarian Empire, which has become the world's hegemon, and turned to the United States. This is clearly a dead end!

In a room not far from the bedroom of Franz Joseph I. Crown Prince Karl is staying inside. The expression on his face was very complicated. Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria was about to die, and he should have been deeply saddened. After all, Franz Joseph I was the beloved emperor of the entire Austro-Hungarian Empire. However, on the face of Crown Prince Karl, there was no trace of grief, but a trace of joy.

Yes, it is joy. The blood relationship between Crown Prince Karl and Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria is quite far away. Therefore, he did not have much affection for Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria.

Even, because Franz Joseph I believed that Crown Prince Karl was not capable of being a good emperor, this made Crown Prince Karl somewhat hate Franz Joseph I.

Now, Franz Joseph I will soon be alive, and he will soon inherit the throne and become the supreme ruler of this huge empire. This made him very excited.

Crown Prince Karl believes that he is a very capable person. As long as he is given a platform to play, he can do better than Franz Joseph I. He believed that he could lead the Austro-Hungarian Empire to a stronger state.

On November 18, Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austria passed away in Schönbrunn Palace.
