Vol 4 Chapter 27: ,condition


Successful politicians have no idiots, and Carol I is no exception. When it is time to admit it, you should admit it. If you ca n’t do anything, just call the boss!
The humiliating face is not worth mentioning in the eyes of politicians compared with benefits, especially when it comes to themselves!
Since I have to admit it, of course Carroll I did not intend to continue desperately with the Bulgarians. If he did not have the army in hand, why would he keep his throne?
He is a good king in the eyes of the bourgeoisie. His popularity in the public is not very good. Carol I did not think that a group of mud-legs would care about any international influence!
He decisively began to shrink the line of defense. Within a few days, the main force of the Romanian army retreated to the capital, Bucharest, and waged a capital defense battle.
Bucharest is located in the central part of the Wallachia Plain in southeastern Romania. It is located on the banks of the Danube tributary Dembovica. It is the largest city in Romania.
罗 Carroll I fought the capital defense war regardless of it, and Ferdinand's turn was dumbfounded. Should he still attack?
If you attack, the Bulgarian army will inevitably suffer heavy losses. The most important thing is that in a short period of time, the Bulgarian army may be difficult to capture Bucharest; if you do not attack, then Romania ’s largest city will be saved!
的 Things that cannot be obtained by force can also be obtained at the negotiating table. This does not apply to the current Balkan countries!
臣 Army Secretary Popov proposed: "Sir, we have now surrounded Bucharest, as long as one month, we can conquer this city, the plains of Wallachia are in our pocket!"
The Plains of Wallachia, also known as the "Danube Plain", is located in southern Romania. North to the Carpathian piedmont, south to the Danube, about 120 kilometers wide from north to south and 400 kilometers from east to west. The climate is mild and the land is fertile.
Ferdinand knew that many people in the military were stunned by this place. According to the practice of Bulgaria, as long as the plains of Wallachia are obtained, a group of military aristocrats must be sealed in the border area. Many people are eyeing here!
As for whether Bucharest can be defeated in one month, it is difficult to say. If Romanians fight hard, it may be possible for three or five months!
This is a figure inferred by Ferdinand from the stock of food in Bucharest. After all, this is the Balkans. Ferdinand dare not underestimate the stubbornness of any nation!
Jeff Ferdinand thought for a while and said, "Forget it! Since the Romanians are going to stay in Bucharest, then they are all done!
I ordered the troops to take advantage of Craiova, Slatina, Slobozia, and other places to turn Bucharest into a lone city, and negotiate with Romanians! "
In the end, Ferdinand decided to put the Romanian issue back. After all, the international situation is already very serious. In the case of World War I, it may take a long time to break out, it is still the most important to preserve strength!
As for Romania, you have already boarded the Confederate ship. Do you want to come down? Even if they want to be neutral, Ferdinand will drag them into the war as soon as possible!
In the face of the pinch between Bulgaria and Russia, even the Austro-Hungarian Empire can't stand it, let alone Romania!
I think it is a pity to think about Ferdinand. This time it is equivalent to letting go of both the Romanian and Ottoman empires. As for the Kingdom of Montenegro, this little point is really not seen by Ferdinand!
As soon as the war is over, the two youngsters in the group of Montenegro will find themselves in a deceit. The allies are not so mixed, and the conflict between them and the Austro-Hungarian Empire will not be eliminated in a short while!
Uh ...
I just dealt with the Romanian issue, and Foreign Minister Metev brought another message: "Your Majesty, the Italians want us to fulfill our agreement and hand over Tripoli to them!"
Ferdinand nodded and said, "Okay, tell Tripoli that the Italians can be handed over to them, but in the negotiations that follow, they will lean towards us, or at least stay neutral!"
It is now possible for the Italians to take over Tripoli's affairs, but the Bulgarian army will not withdraw until the negotiations are completed! "
Ferdinand is totally unbelievable about the Italian's martial arts. If there are no chips in the hand, who knows what moths will come out later!
As for whether the Italians will take action in other parts of Libya, Ferdinand said: In addition to Tripoli this year, Libya has several oasis in the coastal areas, and the rest is sand. Unless the Italians are crazy, they will make a pile of sand. , And wage war with Bulgaria!
Alas, the areas of these oasises are not small, and they add up to tens of thousands of square kilometers, but it seems that they can't do anything other than planting land!
The oil stuff, do n’t even have a shadow now? Otherwise, Bulgaria and Italy will not be able to make a turn, and they will have been divided up by Britain and France!
Uh ...
Time passed in a hurry, half a month later, and the time for negotiations between Ferdinand and the countries had arrived. The venue of this negotiation was Constantinople, which was also deliberately arranged by Ferdinand.
As for what it means, it can only be understood beyond words!
谈判 On August 28, 1909, negotiations were held as scheduled in Constantinople, and all delegations were in place.
The six major powers of Yingying, France, Germany, Austria, Italy, Russia and Europe, as well as Bulgaria are the protagonists of this negotiation. As for Greece, Montenegro, Romania and the Ottoman Empire, their voices are already very low.
一 At the beginning of the negotiations, consultations were held between Bulgaria and the six major powers. After the attitudes of the countries became clear, the four defeated nations of the Anti-Confederation Alliance took turns to express their opinions.
As a victor, at the beginning of the negotiations, Bulgaria's Foreign Minister Metev made conditions:
1. The four countries acknowledged defeat, apologized to Bulgaria, and paid 110 million pounds in war compensation;
Of which: Ottoman Empire paid £ 96 million, Romania paid £ 6 million, Montenegro paid £ 4.5 million, and Greece paid £ 3.5 million;
2. Ottoman ceding: Tripoli and Cyrenaica (ie: Libya), Zonguldak-Eskisehir-Afyon-Adalya (almost a third of the Asia Minor Peninsula , Directly turning the Marmara Sea into an inner lake), the islands in the Aegean Sea to Bulgaria;
3. Greece ceded all the islands to Bulgaria, including the Peloponnesian peninsula, and Bulgaria gained sovereignty over the Greek kingdom;
4. The Kingdom of Montenegro ceded the region of Tropoia and Ivangrad to Bulgaria;
5. Romania cedes the Wallachia plains to Bulgaria;
Uh ...
Well, after reading the conditions put forward by Bulgaria, you will find that none of the first five can be afforded by the Anti-Insurance Alliance!
Oh oh no! The representatives of Romania, Montenegro and Greece stated that if the land is not cut, war compensation can be accepted, and the specific amount needs further negotiation!
However, the Ottoman delegation chose to ignore it directly. Before the start of the war, Bulgaria had proposed a huge claim of 80 million pounds. Now even if we talk about it, it is not impossible!
In this case, they ca n’t afford any more than 8,000 pounds, more ca n’t pay any more. The issue of land removal, except for the Asia Minor Peninsula, they can agree!
There is no doubt that these are impossible for Bulgaria to promise! Millions of people have been mobilized back and forth, and a war has been fought. How can this benefit be fed?
Of course, if you ca n’t get the land, the anti-insurance alliance is willing to pay hundreds of millions of pounds in war reparations at one time, Ferdinand can also promise!
But this is completely impossible. If they have so much money, it is estimated that this war is still going on. Even recruiting mercenaries will be enough to entangle with Bulgaria for several years!
You can refer to the Boer Republic. People have smashed hundreds of tons of gold and they have been entangled with the British in the South African battlefield for several years!

Everyone knows this, and it is impossible to negotiate successfully anytime!
结果 The results of the first round of negotiations will know that Greece, Romania, and the Kingdom of Montenegro all attach great importance to the territory, and are still pinning their hopes on the Allies to put pressure on Bulgaria!
The Ottoman Empire is rich in experience. Since modern times, they have come all the way to pay compensations. As long as they are not in the core territory, they can be negotiated!
The main reason is that they can face the reality. After the navy is finished, it is impossible to spit out the meat that has entered the mouth of Bulgaria in Libya and the Aegean Islands.
But in core territories like the Asia Minor Peninsula, they don't want to give in!
The Turkish Al-Shabaab who just came to power is not stupid. It is already troublesome to be a neighbor of these emerging powers in Bulgaria. If Bulgaria gains a foothold in the Asia Minor Peninsula, it may not take many years for them to move their capital again!
Based on the intelligence feedback from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Jeff Ferdinand analyzed one side and found that the easiest to negotiate is probably the Kingdom of Montenegro!
No way, who told the Kingdom of Montenegro that there is nothing worthy of Ferdinand? The land is mountainous and has little strategic value!
