Christopher felt himself involuntarily tense-up at the general's reaction, responding, "I was never an assassin Herr, I flew ships und shot mein enemies."
Exhaling Christopher continues, "Taking down Rheinhardt...? It won't be easy, there is no quick option... first you would need to gather support," He gestures with his hand, "Which you already have with das Hessians und die other revolutionary groups. The hardest part would be the ehh... propaganda machines that are part of die school system, you'd need the full support, or at least most support of die civilian populace. Full frontal assaults against die Rheinwehr Fleet would be suicide, you'd need to harass die economy."
He smirks, "Well... what's -left- of it anyways. Eventually the civilian populace would rise up against the Bundstag." He thinks before concluding, "Without the support of the civilians you could never take Rheinhardt down. You might be able to destroy Rheinland as a nation, but what is then to stop Libertonians from installing their own ruler und a militar dictatorship over das Rheinlanders?" He shakes his head, "No you'd need to leave Rheinland mostly intact, just convert das civilians to your cause. Although, if you could convince die Rheinwehr to support you, I'd imagine you'd need the civilian support first, you could take over Rheinland in a day."
Leaning back in his chair slumping back exhausted, "Und as you can probably see, apparently the propaganda of Rheinhardt runs deeper than I originally thought so the practicality of that comes into question."
