On the evening of 10 March, Lüttwitz came with his staff to Ebert's office. Ebert had also asked Noske to attend. Lüttwitz, drawing on demands by the right-wing parties and adding his own, now demanded the immediate dissolution of the National Assembly, new elections for the Reichstag, the appointment of technocrats ("Fachminister") as Secretaries for Foreign Affairs, Economics and Finance, the dismissal of General Walther Reinhardt as "Chef der Heeresleitung", his own appointment as supreme commander of the regular military and the revocation of the orders of dissolution for the "Marinebrigaden". Ebert and Noske rejected these demands. Noske told Lüttwitz that he expected his resignation the next day.
