Vol 4 Chapter 145: , The relations between Russia and Russia in the new era

The Berlin General Staff, Hindenburg lit a cigarette and smoked it. The thing he worried most was that it happened. The defection of the Austro-Hungarian Empire meant that the most critical moment of the German Empire had arrived!
At this moment, he was extremely angry at Marshal August von Mackensen who refused to execute the order. In his opinion, if these German troops were withdrawn to Austria to "help the Austro-Hungarian Empire defend Vienna", then the Vienna government was absolutely I dare not surrender so easily!
Of course, the most likely thing is that they didn't even have the opportunity to enter Vienna, as long as Ferdinand II was not stupid, they would not be allowed in.
In this respect, Marshal August von Mackensen’s decision was correct. After all, before the fall of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, everyone was still an ally. If they refused to enter the capital, could it be possible that they could attack?
If you really want to attack the capital of your allies, it is estimated that the consequences will be more serious than the fall of the Austria-Hungary Empire! If this is born, who would dare to be an ally with the Germans in the future?
But now he doesn't care about finding August von Mackensen to settle accounts. For these military generals, the deterrent power of the General Staff has been getting lower and lower!
Under Ferdinand’s butterfly effect, the Junker noble government represented by Hindenburg did not have the opportunity to perform. In this war, the Germans fought several great victories, all during the reign of William II. .
Many Germans now think that the strategic level of William II of the two knives is better than that of the Hindenburg government. This is not good news for them!
As time goes by, Hindenburg is constantly lowering the bottom line to end the war. Now he doesn’t plan to take the French homeland. Even the Belgian territory, Germany can give up, and the eastern front will occupy the Russians. The territory of the country can also be returned, as long as the integrity of the land is preserved and the Allied Powers compensate them in the colony!
Well, his current bottom line is not as good as the conditions for peace talks put forward by the prime minister in black last year. At least people can add more than half of Poland to Germany after they operate, and they won't be in vain to start this war.
It is a pity that the interest group he represents does not agree! Including now, Hindenburg still cannot persuade the Junker nobles to accept his terms of peace talks!
The battle on the battlefield has been fought for more than two years. There have been thousands of Junker noble officers on the battlefield, but they have not obtained matching benefits. How should they explain to the families of these people? Regarding this problem, the military leaders also have a headache!
The smoke gradually burned out, Hindenburg extinguished the cigarette and sighed long. Now there is not much room left for him to choose. Either do a final fight regardless of recklessness, or immediately admit defeat and stop loss!
...
Hindenburg asked anxiously: "What did the English and French say?"
He knew that now that he is in contact with the Allied Powers, there is no need for Russia and Bulgaria to talk, and they have no bargaining chip to threaten the two countries at all!
Even if the Germans come here once and all the people are soldiers, they will not scare them! Fighting the war of attrition, who is afraid of whom?
Even if the Germans suddenly exploded and severely inflicted the Bulgarian army on the front line, Ferdinand would hurt at most once. Bulgaria has not suffered a major defeat after so long in the war. It doesn't matter if the defeat was last time. It is impossible for the entire army to be wiped out, right?
Not to mention the Tsarist government. Without these three million, it is a big deal to wait for another battle next year, and the soldiers will lose!
You know that the Soviet Union lost more than 27 million people in World War II, and most of them were the army. Didn't they persist in the same way? The population of Russia is now larger than that of the Soviet Union. It has only lost more than 10 million people since the start of the war. Even if the ruling power of the Tsarist government is weaker, it can still hold it!
Therefore, in this secret contact with the Allied Powers, Hindenburg focused on Britain and France. After all, at this time, if the Germans really struggle with Britain and France, they can still suffer heavy losses!
For example, if you get anxious, the German Navy will directly stud with the British Royal Fleet. As long as it can replace one-third of the Royal Navy's tonnage and sink, John Bull can't stand it!
Similarly, the French have all been exposed to the iron feet of the German army. As long as the defense of Paris starts, no matter what the outcome is, Paris will be in ruins and the French will be destined to lose!
These are all the bargaining chips currently in the hands of the Germans. As for the problem of pulling the tens of millions of people in northeastern France to burn, just talk about it, and it is impossible to implement it!
German Foreign Minister Simmons said with a wry smile: "The result was very bad. The British demanded that we hand over all the navy's capital ships and submarines free of charge, and signed a treaty to never show the navy before they agreed to end this war!
The French demanded that we withdraw from their territory immediately, and they also asked us for Lorraine and Alsace. As long as these conditions were met, they agreed to end the war! "
Hindenburg said coldly: "In other words, we want to restore to the pre-war period, but the Allied powers did not agree?"
Simmons thought for a while and said: "It can also be understood that the Allied powers have no sincerity in peace talks at all. Bulgaria has said that it is 200 million pounds of war reparations. The Russians even demanded the territory of East Prussia from us, simply treating us as fat. Sheep!"
Hindenburg did not answer. He knew that the Allies had made a choice for them. Only after they conquered Paris and severely damaged the British and French forces, could everyone sit down and negotiate peacefully again.
...
Well, if you change Ferdinand, it is estimated that you will compromise with Britain and France!
The British want Germany to abandon the development of the navy. This is no problem. It was originally a six-power country, so why not do business properly?
To surrender all the capital ships, do the two parties still have discussions, such as selling them all to John Bull, or for an exchange of interests?
The French want Alsace and Lorraine, this can also be discussed, such as changing the colony, so that everyone can have an explanation for the country!
It is a pity that Hindenburg is not a traverser. He still doesn't know what Germany has missed by suspending negotiations with the Allied Powers!
Then needless to say, the two sides start a new round of pk! The main force of the Germans fought with one enemy and two on the western front, just pressing the British and French forces!
Since it is the defense of Paris, Paris has naturally become a battlefield. The two sides fought a cruel battle around the city until the Bulgarian army reached southern Germany and the Russian army entered East Prussia. The Germans gave up!
Of course, this is all in the future! Now everyone is still busy with the rebellion of the Austro-Hungarian Empire?
With the fall of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the Bulgarian army can naturally attack South Germany directly. In order to pay the vote, no matter whether the Vienna government wants it or not, they still sent 300,000 Austro-Hungarian troops to act with Bulgaria!
Now everyone is busy making preparations. The logistics of the millions of expeditionary forces is not a small number. Even Bulgaria’s efficiency is amazing, and there is no time for ten and a half months to get all these strategic materials together.
Without more than a month of preparation time, the Bulgarian army will not take the initiative to attack. After all, transportation also takes time. If there are not enough strategic materials, the frontline troops will not have the confidence to fight!
Bulgaria, as the active offensive party, only needs to prepare the supplies, but the British and French coalition forces that are crushed and beaten are miserable. They are being forced to head-on with the Germans!
But whether it is passive or active, the three British and French companies are doing their best to end this war as soon as possible. The other member of the Allied Powers is different.
Regarding the defection of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Nicholas II was more angry than happy, and the duck that was about to get it flew like this!
Obviously, everyone is restricting the exhibition of the Russian Empire, but the problem is that I know that Nicholas II can do nothing about it. The only thing he can do now is to urge the Russian army to move faster and win as many as possible. soil of!
Nicholas II said fiercely: "Order the frontline troops to speed up the offensive, and we must take East Prussia before the Germans surrender and turn the Baltic Sea into our inland sea!"
Anyway, as long as the established facts are created, no one can let the Russian Empire vomit out the benefits that they have obtained. If they can't eat enough in Austria-Hungary this time, they can only catch the Germans!
It can only be said that Teddy Bear has a good appetite, and a Polish can't feed them enough! Had it not been for their defeat in the Eastern Front last year, they would still be inseparable from the support of the Allied Powers. It is estimated that everyone would have fallen out!
Chief of Staff Brusilov persuaded: "Your Majesty, don't worry, Britain and France can let go of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, but they will definitely not let go of the Germans!
There is no way to alleviate the contradiction between Germany and France. After the war, the French will desperately suppress the Germans; the British want to destroy the German navy, and they cannot let the Germans retreat!
We only need to proceed according to the original plan. After the Baltic Sea is taken, the last shortcoming that restricts the Russian Empire will be made up! "
After listening to Chief of Staff Brusilov’s analysis, Nicholas II was in a much better mood. In any case, Russia’s most important strategy was realized in this war.
As for the Austro-Hungarian Empire that escaped, the defeated Nicholas II is still not in the eyes. In the future, there will be opportunities to deal with them. What makes him even more troublesome is the rise of Bulgaria in the Balkans.
It is no longer the "Prussia of the Balkans", it is about to become the Germany of the Balkans! Their industrial strength has become the greater the Russian Empire, and their military strength is enough to pose a substantial threat to the Russian Empire!
This is embarrassing. I was originally only going to support a little brother, but now he actually played and directly supported a competitor!
Of course, he cannot say this directly. The friendship between Russia and Russia is still the political correctness of the two countries. If the conflict between the two countries is provoked, the people below can say that only he and Ferdinand cannot say it, otherwise they will be undermined. People give wrong interpretations and cause unnecessary trouble!
Of course, this is also a sequelae of the Russian defeat on the Eastern Front last year, otherwise the Russian Empire still has the strength to suppress this little brother, and there will be no so much trouble!
As for how to restrict Bulgaria's exhibition after the war, Nicholas II really did not think of a good way. After all, the economic ties between the Russian Empire and Bulgaria are too close now, and economic sanctions on the other side might destroy themselves together!
At present, more than 90% of the import and export trade of the Russian Empire is carried out with Bulgaria. Of course, this is mainly caused by the war. After the war, this proportion will definitely drop~EbookFREE.me~ But no matter how it drops, Russia The two countries are still each other's largest trading partners!
According to the analysis of economic experts, building an integrated economic circle between Russia and Russia is the most suitable choice for the Russian Empire, using economic interests to tie the two countries together.
This is also a national policy that both Russia and Russia are currently implementing, so no matter how big the political differences between the two countries are, under the effect of common interests, the two are still the closest allies on the surface!
Nicholas II thought for a while and said, "Well, but we still have to get the Baltic Sea into our hands quickly. If it takes too long, the British will definitely make trouble for us again!
Now the Japanese in the Far East have become active again. According to the news from the Far East Front Army, they are going to carry out big operations again. They simply don't take the empire in their eyes! After the war is over, we have to deal with the trouble in the east! "
Brusilov was taken aback for a moment, and then reacted quickly. It seemed that His Majesty the Tsar still had a sorrow for the Japanese.
But for the Russian Empire, this is a good thing. Instead of focusing its strategy on Europe and the French, it is better to go to the Far East to pinch the Japanese persimmon!
Of course, this is the future. Even if the war is over in the short term, everyone will still have to lick the wounds. European countries will not be able to regain their vitality without a decade or eight.
After thinking about it, Brusilov confidently said: "Yes! Your Majesty, please rest assured, within a month at most, we can severely damage the German troops on the Eastern Front. The Baltic Sea is ours!"
Nicholas II nodded in satisfaction. It was the first time that generations of the Russian Empire had struggled for ocean strategy for hundreds of years, and it was the first time that they were so close to victory!
