Vol 4 Chapter 75: Chaos in the Balkans

With the orders of Ferdinand, the Balkans became lively again, and countries crackled.
Nicholas I regretted it again. He was only trying to help Romania share a little pressure, but he did not expect it to catch fire.
The Kingdom of Montenegro is now mobilizing the whole country, but it has only made up 150,000 troops, and the military-civilian ratio has reached 1: 7. If the 200,000 people in the concentration camp are deducted, this ratio is as high as 1: 5.
Obviously this has reached the limit of their mobilization, which is still based on the premise that the Austro-Hungarian Empire provided them with material assistance.
Originally, if the Kingdom of Montenegro relied on the mountain defense, there would be nothing, and Ferdinand would not have the energy to find their obscurity, but this time they came out.
First, they attacked the Kosovo area with the Austro-Hungarian army, but they failed; then they also attacked Albania, although it was only a tentative attack.
Unfortunately, Ferdinand decided to strike them ahead of time for post-war stability. The army, originally intended to board the 6 Asia Minor Peninsula, first used them.
The reinforcements of the Twenty Division and the local garrison totaled 400,000. Under the leadership of Lieutenant General Parif Kristof, they counterattacked the Kingdom of Montenegro.
The strength of the two sides is not at the same level. In the era of aircraft + artillery, it is already difficult to win with weakness.
In addition, Lieutenant General Parif Khristov strictly implemented Ferdinand's regional policies, occupying one place under military control and one place, and cleaning one place.
In just one week, Nicholas I lost Gusine, Ivango-Zinapal, and Lake Skutai, and he was about to surround Podgorica.
Unfortunately, the Kingdom of Montenegro is too small, but the Bulgarian army has only advanced the front by dozens of kilometers, and they cannot stand it.
"What did the Russians say?" Nicholas I asked expectantly.
Lost soldiers, lost soldiers and lost ground!
Knowing that this war could no longer be fought, Nicholas I placed all his hopes on the Russians, hoping that the tsarist government would come forward to reconcile and give the Kingdom of Montenegro the opportunity to return to the Allies.
After the Allies win the alliance, the Kingdom of Montenegro can share another loot in the future. Out of balance, the Russians in Bulgaria will definitely support the Kingdom of Montenegro to establish the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. By that time ...
Unfortunately, he forgot that this is not the time of Alexander II, and the Russian royal family's patience with the Kingdom of Montenegro has been worn away.
The Foreign Minister smiled bitterly: "His Majesty, the Tsarist government stated that only if the Kingdom of Montenegro can surrender unconditionally, they are willing to come forward to mediate the conflict between us and the Bulgarians."
"Unconditional surrender" Nicholas I almost vomited blood. If this is agreed, let alone the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, even the preservation of the Kingdom of Montenegro is a problem.
Well, the words of the Foreign Minister are already very mild. In fact, after the Tsarist government received the request from the Kingdom of Montenegro, they simply refused, or after his people in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs begged, the Russian talents reluctantly gave this answer.
Now the tsarist government is pinning its hopes on building a huge Slavic empire, and relying on this empire to dominate the world.
From the point of view of interest, in fact, the establishment of such a huge empire is very beneficial to both the Russians and the Bulgarians.
Once this empire is established, the world island will tremble under this behemoth. Theoretically, as long as the two countries reach an agreement, neither the British nor the French, or even the Americans, will be able to stop it.
From the point of view, the strength of this great empire is much more terrifying than the later Soviet Union. According to the Russian idea, after annexing more than half of Germany and the Austro-Hungarian Empire, plus the basic market of Bulgaria and Russia, this will be a behemoth with an economic aggregate of more than the United States and a population of more than 300 million.
Whether it can be achieved or not, the ambition of the tsarist government is so great. In this context, can the small Montenegro kingdom still enter their eyes?
Besides, the Russians did not support the Kingdom of Montenegro at that time, but Nicholas I missed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and did not display the Kingdom of Montenegro.
Step by step, naturally, step by step. Now no one thinks that the Montenegro Kingdom can balance Bulgaria.
"Hey!"
Nicholas I sighed and then said fiercely: "Since this is the case, it can only be desperate!
Order all the troops to give me resistance every day, if you can't win, drill me a ravine and drag me to Bulgaria. "
There is no doubt that when he said this, Nicholas I was not confident enough. The main reason is that the Kingdom of Montenegro is too small. If you look at the area, it will be a city.
It is definitely impossible to learn Boer to play guerrilla warfare, there is no place to run at all! What's more, Ferdinand is still migrating their population, hiding in the mountains for several months, and suddenly no one is there, which is guerilla!
...
Regardless of what Nicholas I thought, Lieutenant General Parif Kristof moved forward steadily, and soon approached Podgorica, the capital of Montenegro.
That is to say, in fact, this is also a small city with a population of less than 100,000. It is located on the banks of the Moracha River in the Skotai Basin.
As a result, the battle for the defense of the Kingdom of Montenegro became fierce. Within a week, the Bulgarian Air Force dumped thousands of tons of bombs into the small city, including a large number of incendiary bombs.
The whole city is like a city of fire. The fire is burning and the smoke is rising. The siege war has not yet started, and the defenders in the city have suffered heavy casualties.
Not everyone has the spirit of seeing death, especially now, even without the shadow of the enemy, he was burned to death by the fire and smoked to death!
Many people collapsed directly, and a large number of the people of the Kingdom of Montenegro escaped from it. Naturally, a large number of garrison soldiers were also included. With fear and hatred, they were forced to surrender to the siege forces.
But it doesn't matter. Anyway, they have to be packaged and sent away. Even if they arrive in Syria, their hatred for Bulgaria is greater than heaven.
...
There is no doubt that the defense of Podgorica, the moving capital of the Kingdom of Montenegro, has failed, and the main urban area of ​​more than ten square kilometers has been baptized by artillery.
The remaining garrison in the city has been unable to withstand the footsteps of the Bulgarian army.
However, the Kingdom of Montenegro is no better than Romania. Even if they have defeated them, the subsequent war will continue for a long time. Anyway, according to the estimation of the General Staff, this war will continue until the first half of 1916.
...
At this time, the Romanian battlefield also had a change of situation. In order to keep the ally of the ally, the Austrian-Hungarian Empire transferred 40 million reserve teams from the country to join the battlefield. This was their last mobile unit.
With the joining of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the morale of the Romanians increased greatly and the war became fierce.
As for the consequences, naturally, Romanian casualties are even greater.
Bulgaria has simply wiped out the direct participants against the rebels, and their families have been exiled in Syria.
The bears are not so good at talking. In order to retaliate and vent their anger, from time to time they organize a slaughter and use the knife directly to deter Romanians.
Either way, the same effect has been achieved, that is, the Romanians in the occupied area were settled.
The Romanians in the unoccupied area also became entangled with their enemies, and their will to resist became firm.
Well, mainly Romanian nobles and capitalists whose interests are damaged are angry. Whether it is Russia or Bulgaria, after the occupation of the area, the first thing is to confiscate their illegal income!
It is naturally impossible for them to go to the front line and desperately. In order to get revenge, they naturally start to fool the ordinary people to go to the front line and desperately. In short, the hatred between the two sides is deepening.
Seeing the reports of casualties on the Romanian battlefield, Ferdinand finally understood why World War I had such a large number of casualties!
If the Romanians continue to strengthen, then they are Serbia in history, with a population loss of 30 to 40 percent. This is not impossible.
It can be seen from the casualty data that Bulgaria suffered 58,000 casualties on the Romanian battlefield in September, and the cost of Romanians was at least twice that.
The war broke out in Romania. How could their civilian casualties be less? Under normal circumstances, civilians often have more casualties than the military!
It is mainly a siege war. Basically, as long as every city has conducted fierce resistance, the number of civilian casualties is a huge number.
The shells have no eyes, and it is impossible to catch the army exclusively! And neither the Bulgarian army nor the Russian army have ever cared about civilian casualties in Romania, anyway, they are fighting hard!
The most important thing is that the Romanian government does not pay much attention to civilian casualties. In many cases, it is clear that people can be evacuated first, and they have not done so.
For example, the Bulgarian army suffered 58,000 casualties in September, but under effective treatment, the real death toll was 8,000, and everyone else could recover.
The Romanians are tragedy. There are not enough medicines and doctors. As long as the wounded soldiers are wounded, they can only take orders.
According to the General Staff's estimation, in September alone, the number of casualties in Romania exceeded 500,000, and only God knows how many died.
In this respect, the Mao bears have made great contributions. When it comes to destructive power or the Russian army, even the mercenary recruited by Ferdinand is amazing. This aspect seems to be their innate talent.
From Ferdinand's point of view, the Romanians are crazy now, and armed the people who have never been trained to the battlefield are completely killing them!
What's more important is that ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Most Romanian soldiers are strong men forced by the government. No matter how they propagate, the ordinary people have lost confidence in resisting the offensive of Bulgaria and Russia.
The reinforcements of the Austro-Hungarian Empire can inspire a wave of morale, but this effect is disappearing over time.
Many Romanians now believe that the combat effectiveness of the Austro-Hungarian army is much worse than theirs. They simply cannot stop the joint attack between Bulgaria and Russia.
