"Then what should we do," Ludendorff looked at the Chief of the General Staff, Seckert, with a blazing eye.
"Germany is facing a catastrophe, should we still let traitorous criminals stay on stage" He meant to launch a coup d'état to overthrow President Albert, but Admiral Seckert remained silent.
"Your Excellency General, now is not the time" Hersman saw the scene a little embarrassed, and quickly took over the topic, "After all, the disaster has not happened, the people have not fallen into hell, and now our people stay on the stage with the Social Democrats, and the responsibility is not Albert alone, but everyone." ” At present, the political situation in Germany is very strange, the Social Democratic Party is "semi-opposition", the president of the German Empire is the Social Democratic Party's Albert, but the cabinet is composed of non-socialist parties such as the Catholic Center Party, the Democratic Party, the People's Party, and the National Party.
In other words, the SPD has a president and is the largest party in parliament, but the cabinet is not in the hands of the Social Democrats.
Moreover, the president of the Weimar Republic was not a ceremonial vase, but a super-president with more power than the emperor.
According to the Constitution, President Albert could even impose a state of emergency rule and turn himself into a dictator "The current situation is that all the major parties are tied together, and everyone is responsible for the disaster."
Hersman said.
"It reminds me of Russia before Kerensky's offensive" "The Bolsheviks were in the opposition," Ludendorff interjected.
In fact, the National Socialist German Workers' Party, which he cooperated with, was also an opposition party.
"Yes, we shouldn't go with the Social Democrats to carry the black pot," Hersmann paused, his gaze slowly swept over everyone present, and finally stopped at the fat, mustachioed Gustav Tremelmann.
"I propose that the existing cabinet be dissolved."
"Dissolution of the cabinet," Gustav Strizemann mused, "should the SPD be held responsible?"
He understood what Hersmann meant, and from the point of view of democratic politics, whoever is in power now is unlucky and the Entente will not be able to take out the reparations extorted by the Entente at all, but the German government will not dare to resist to the end, and in the end it will inevitably be that the mark reserves will become a huge negative number, and then the German currency will become waste paper.
In such a situation, the opposition parties can attract voters to grow and develop in a high-profile manner, while the political parties in the DPRK can only carry the black cauldron on their backs and finally be crushed to death by the black cauldron.
"Someone has to take responsibility," Hirschmann nodded, "and if we put Ebert's SPD in full responsibility, Germany will be back on track by 1923 at the latest." ” In his memory, in 1923, when the German super-inflation was at its worst, it cost hundreds of millions of marks to buy bread, and finally when Germany issued a stable currency for land rent marks, it was a trillion old marks for a land rent mark It is a miracle that the Weimar Republic did not collapse immediately after this inflation, which caused all Germans to suffer.
And the reason for this miracle is probably the Weimar political model of "everyone carries the black pot together".
"But the power of the president is great," Gustav Stresemann looked at Hersmann for a long time, knowing his role in the Russian Revolution.
Then he glanced at Admiral Seckert and said: "The president can use the state of emergency authorization to establish a near-dictatorial rule with the support of the SPD." ” "It depends on the support of France."
Hersmann shrugged his shoulders, knowing of course that a figure like Stresemann would not have feared a dictatorship by the Social Democrats without the barrel of a gun, and that the great politician, who had won the dynamite prize in history, must have been worried about the military doing so after the fall of the Social Democrats.
After a pause, Hersmann continued: "The choice is now in the hands of France, and if they do not take away our monetary sovereignty, the fully ruling Social Democrats will not need a state of emergency at all to consolidate power."
Conversely, if Mark collapses.
Germany would then be plunged into an unprecedented crisis, in which whoever becomes the new president will have to deal with it.
Only if the German economy is saved first, then there will be a popular basis for the establishment of a dictatorship.
Mr.
Stresemann, I don't think you would think that in a country like Germany, with an internal economic collapse and an external Entente being aggressive, the guns of a few people alone can suppress public opinion and establish a dictatorship."
Hersmann's analysis reassured Stresemann that he was not opposed to Hindenburg or Ludendorff being dictators, nor was he very much in favor of republican democracy.
But he worries that the military will do whatever it wants after putting their bigwigs on the presidency.
The current Germany is not the Germany of 1914, and it really does not have the strength to confront Britain and France.
"Who will be president," Strasemann asked.
"We want Field Marshal Hindenburg and Admiral Ludendorff to be President and Vice President, respectively."
Admiral Seckert replied.
"Vice President" Stresemann thought for a moment and nodded, "There really should be a vice president." ” The establishment of a vice president was Hirschmann's proposal, because the president of the Weimar Republic was so powerful that in the event of his death in office, it was a question of who would take the presidency.
Under the Weimar Constitution, the acting president would be Chancellor, a position that belonged to Hitler in the year of Hindenburg's death in 1934.
"What about the cabinet," Stresemann asked again.
"Is it still accountability?"
"Of course," Mr.
Seckert said, "the constitution will not be amended, the active military will not interfere in politics, everything will be the same as it is now, except for a new president." ” "Well," Stresemann was silent for a moment, "the People's Party could consider quitting the cabinet."
He glanced at Dr.
Shacht, one of the leaders of the Democratic Party.
"The Democratic Party and the People's Party advance and retreat together."
Schacht also immediately took a stand.
However, Colonel Papen of the Catholic Centre, representing the largest party in the coalition government, did not say a word.
Although there were more than 100 political parties in the Weimar Republic, only the Social Democratic Party, the Independent Social Democratic Party, the Catholic Central Party, the Fatherland People's Party, and the National Party, which split from the Central Party, entered the National Assembly.
Now the Central Party, the People's Party, the Jatiya Party, and the Democratic Party have formed a majority coalition government.
If the BJP and the DPJ withdraw, the majority government will not be maintained.

Seeing Stresemann's support, the military politician Schleicher smiled and said: "Now is not the time to collapse the cabinet immediately, it will be a few months, and when the negotiations with the Entente cannot make satisfactory progress, we estimate that Albert will issue a presidential decree asking the cabinet to agree to pay reparations."
It was at this time that the BJP and the Jatiya Party withdrew from the Cabinet in protest against President Albert's order.
Chancellor Felenbach will then ask the president to dissolve the parliament and hold new elections. ” The plan for the overthrow of President Albert was, of course, drawn up by the head of the Political Division of the General Staff, Colonel Schleicher.
He paused, then continued: "If in this election, no matter how many seats we can get, we must first let the Social Democrats and the Independent Socialist Party form a minority cabinet."
We are in opposition and are calling on the public to continue the run on gold, and if we have enough seats after the collapse of the German currency, we will initiate an impeachment case to remove Albert from office.
If it is not enough, a no-confidence motion will be passed, forcing Albert to dissolve parliament again and call for a general election.
If Albert uses the state of emergency, then we will mobilize the masses to surround the presidential palace and force him to resign."
