"Conscription!"
...
The annual Conscription Day is the most important holiday in Bulgaria, and it is nicknamed the "Military Day" by folks.
It is a pity that the world is now peaceful, and the number of recruits has been low every year. At the same time, without war, there will naturally be no military exploits.
For the younger generation of Bulgaria, this kind of life is really too difficult to "boil".
The great achievements of the predecessors, they can only look up, and they can't go on the battlefield, so how can they go beyond?
This is not the time for conscription. As usual, unless there is a war or the government is preparing for war, there will be no conscription in advance.
Burks is a member of the army of conscripts. He has already served in the military once. As a veteran, he is very advantageous in such sudden recruitment.
At the fastest speed, I ran to the bulletin board and carefully read the draft documents.
Soon he was disappointed. This time it was not government recruitment, but the Dutch recruitment of mercenaries in Bulgaria.
The Balkans is also a famous hometown of mercenaries. Turning the history back, almost all of their ancestors had done this "rich career" career hundreds of years ago.
At this time, the term mercenary has rarely appeared in everyone's sight.
If it were not during the World War, the Bulgarian government recruited millions of mercenaries, it is estimated that many people would have forgotten this familiar and unfamiliar term!
If the Bulgarian government recruits troops, there will naturally be a long queue. Are you still thinking about making contributions?
Now to be a mercenary for the Dutch, this temptation is much smaller, although the recruiters this time gave a high commission and the pension was also very generous.
But the title they want most, or social status, is not something mercenary organizations can afford.
The Bulgarian government has long established a complete system, with very strict regulations on titles, military field systems, other rewards and pension systems.
Now this mercenary obviously does not meet the requirements. They are employed by the Kingdom of the Netherlands in nature, so they are naturally not able to enjoy the benefits and social status provided by the Bulgarian government.
Burks is no exception. Money has never been his goal in life. Like many young Bulgarians, he aspires to make contributions and become a member of the nobility.
Obviously, this is not what the Kingdom of the Netherlands can provide, and this mercenary is still controlled by the Bulgarian government. It is only politically necessary that it is put under the name of the Dutch.
In terms of military pay, the mercenaries are really very generous. They pay a monthly basic salary of 280 levs. All the spoils seized on the battlefield can be divided into eight tiers, except for real estate.
Every time a war is won, there is a bonus, and the pension is as high as 80,000 lev. Including the usual supply standards of daily necessities, there is also an uninterrupted supply of meat, vegetables and fruits.
Unfortunately, the temptation of these benefits is not great for them. Except for some restless people, most people are not interested in it.
The current legal minimum wage in Bulgaria is 108 lev and 128 lev per month (note: the eight-hour work system and the ten-hour work system are parallel), the average salary is 176 lev per month, and the average salary of ordinary soldiers is the same as the average salary .
Although the salaries of mercenaries are high, they are not high enough to make them look up to them, especially the military aristocrats who are even more dismissive.
Even if the land area is the smallest, you can rent the land and go out to find a job. They can still get very moisturized, and there is no need to work for the Dutch.
Ferdinand had a headache, everyone had a pretty good life, and had no interest in being a mercenary.
Although the salaries of mercenaries are high, they are all one-offs. Once the battle is over, there is nothing left.
This is not like joining the army in the country. There are a series of benefits that can benefit you for life. If you make a war, you will make a lot of money, and you will be famous, and you will have everything.
As a mercenary, even if you make a great contribution, it is for the Kingdom of the Netherlands and has nothing to do with Bulgaria. Even if they make a fortune and return to the hometown, the villagers only regard them as explosive households?
"Are you saying that our conscription work has encountered difficulties and the number of applicants is too small?" Ferdinand asked in confusion.
The conscience of heaven and earth, this question is completely beyond Ferdinand's imagination. Since he succeeded to the throne for more than 30 years, he has never heard of Bulgaria not being recruited.
In the past, it was difficult for conscription, because too many people came to apply for conscription, and the workload of selecting soldiers was very heavy.
The Kingdom of Bulgaria is based on armed forces. Everyone has to receive military training from an early age. When joining the army, even basic training can be saved.
From the age of seven, he started to be involved in military training, and joined the army at the age of twenty. After 13 years, even the stupid people will integrate this training into their lives.
Every time when recruiting, everyone will find that there are too many qualified troops. There is no way. In the end, Ferdinand came up with a lottery method to determine the candidates, which avoided a series of troubles.
The number of people signing up to join the army is not enough. This is probably the first time since the founding of the Bulgarian nation. This kind of unexpected situation will not make everyone shocked!
"Yes, Your Majesty! According to past conscription practice, usually the number of applicants will exceed the first day when the notification channel is opened.
This time our registration channel has been opened for three days, and the current number of applicants is less than 30,000. If nothing happens, the number of applicants will not exceed 20,000 in the next four days.
In other words, the vacancies in this recruitment of mercenaries will be very serious. The number of soldiers recruited from the country may not even be half.
You know, this time we have relaxed the registration conditions. Even immigrants and even refugees can sign up! "The Chief of Staff Christophe said very distressedly
"Well, do you know what is causing the enthusiasm of everyone to sign up?" Ferdinand asked concerned.
"It should be an honor! Participating in the National Defence Force is to defend your home and the country. Not only is it generously paid, it will also be respected by the entire society.
The salaries of mercenaries may be higher, but they cannot be recognized by the society, and it is impossible for us to provide them with the same level of benefits! "Admiral Christophe thought for a while and said
Ferdinand nodded, the mercenary's salary is not low, in addition to salary bonus, the most important thing is to divide the spoils, which is equivalent to legal robbery.
The Indonesian area is very wealthy, and their trophies from a battle may be their military pay for several years.
Theoretically, after helping the Dutch suppress this rebellion, everyone gets tens of thousands of levs of spoils, which is not a problem at all.
In one or two years, they can earn tens of thousands of levs. This is almost the income they can accumulate after working in the country for ten years.
This income must not be increased, otherwise the Bulgarian government will not be able to bear the military expenses.
In the case of non-combat, a monthly salary of more than 20 million levs has to be paid. Even if the daily supplies are provided by the Dutch, the monthly expenditure of this unit will not be less than two thousand. Three million lev.
If there is a fight, it will be even more costly. Ferdinand will not be surprised at the cost of four to five billion levs of war funds a year.
If Nanyang is the territory of Bulgaria, don't say four or five billion levs, even if it is four or five billion levs, he doesn't need to hesitate, but this time he is just helping the Dutch?
"Well, first find a way among the refugees. If you still don't have enough numbers, go to the Austro-Hungarian Empire or the German region to recruit!
The big deal is to recruit two German divisions and give priority to several major kingdoms. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs can coordinate with them. Given their current economic situation, people who are willing to come out to serve as mercenaries are definitely indispensable! "Ferdinand thought for a while and said
"Your Majesty, is it a bit untimely to recruit a large number of mercenaries from Germany? This will increase their military strength?" Christoph Zou asked, frowning.
"I also know this, so I asked you to recruit people in which kingdoms?
Except for the Kingdom of Prussia under the jurisdiction of the central government, the military strength of the other kingdoms, no matter how they expand, their populations are very limited.
Even the Kingdom of Bavaria, with the largest population, has a population of less than 10 million. No matter how strong their military strength is, they do not have the strength to unify Germany.
Besides, aren’t there still French? In the face of a unified Germany, the French government is expected to admit counsel, but in the face of a small part of Germany, it is impossible for the French to counsel.
Unless they want to see Germany reunite again, and then launch a war of revenge against them.
Even the Austro-Hungarian Empire cannot tolerate German reunification, and traitors are not so good! "Ferdinand said calmly
Bulgaria now needs a stable European continent. Only when the European continent is stable can it be impossible to create an empire that threatens Bulgaria’s national security.
The current European hegemony, the French, has done a very good job in this area, unswervingly promoting the contradiction between Germany and France. As long as Germany and France cannot compromise, then the countries on the European continent will not threaten Bulgaria's security.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Admiral Christophe replied
"Your Majesty, I am afraid that the military expenditure for recruiting mercenaries this time will be overspend.
According to our previous plan, mercenaries are recruited in China, and they can be sent to the battlefield without any training.
But now, to recruit troops in Germany and Austria, this will greatly increase our training funds, including the expenditure on command and coordination, and will also greatly increase! "The chancellor said with a gloomy face
"Probably how much will it increase?" Ferdinand asked concerned.
There is no other way. The mercenaries recruited from Bulgaria have all the same training modes and can be used directly.
And these foreign recruits, even if they are all veterans who have retired from the World War, are now degraded. They must be re-trained and then run in for a long time to achieve consistent command.
"According to the calculation of recruiting 30,000 people, at least 35 million levs of training funding will be increased, and at least 800,000 levs of translation funding will be increased every month.
Your Majesty, this is far beyond our budget, and the government will face great financial pressure! "Kennedy thought for a while and said
Ferdinand frowned Zou. On the surface, this number seemed to be small. In fact, when the war is over, perhaps this part of the additional funds will be hundreds of millions of levs.
Don’t look at Bulgaria’s current fiscal revenue. There are already tens of billions of levs. In fact, they are still very poor.
The ongoing "Ten-Year Plan" consumes a lot of government financial resources, so Ferdinand has to live his life carefully.
"Well, let's do it like this! For the overspending, use our colonies in Southeast Asia as collateral and borrow from the bank!" Ferdinand Zou frowned.
Lack of money, UU reading www.uukanshu.com This is also a common problem of governments all over the world. The financial situation of the Bulgarian government is estimated to be the best in the world in this era.
At the very least, the government's debt ratio, which has been suppressed by Ferdinand, has dropped from seven or eight times the debt leverage at its peak to less than 30% now.
This is still because of the "10-year plan", otherwise the Bulgarian government would have been debt-free and light.
The fact that the government has less debt does not mean that it owes less money to the bank.
For example, the Bulgarian railway company still owes more than 10 billion to the bank; the Bulgarian road construction group is even more ruthless, owing more than 20 billion to the bank.
There are still many state-owned enterprises inside. Of course, the Bulgarian Highway Group is not a state-owned enterprise. It is a social welfare enterprise.
If nothing else, the Bulgarian Railway Company will become a public welfare enterprise in the future. There are many similar enterprises. Almost all state-owned infrastructure construction enterprises will eventually become public welfare enterprises.
Monopoly companies are not so easy to do, especially these industries that are related to the international people's livelihood, which are typical of scolding.
In the future world, spit stars can also drown people!
Many industries do not make much money in the first place, but in the eyes of the outside world, they think it is a profitable industry, and Ferdinand is not going to stay.
Anyway, no matter how the nature of the company changes, the government's control over it will not be lost. It is nothing more than making no money from it.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Kennedy replied
Let's take a loan. Anyway, the Bulgarian government has always been a high-quality customer of the bank. Compared with the high debts of governments around the world, the debts of the Bulgarian government have fallen all the way.
