Chapter 142: Aftercare measures

The great powers are the great powers. Even the parallel imports among the great powers, the strength of the Austro-Hungarian Empire is still not covered! The problems in the eyes of the Serbian government were easily resolved as soon as the Austro-Hungarian Empire came forward!
Is this really the case?
斐 After receiving the information, Ferdinand laughed, but he knew how powerful the Serbs were to die!
The calm water on the surface of the ravioli, in fact, do not know how much undercurrent is surging! !! That is, I have just been hit hard now, and I am still licking the wound.
At the end of 1894, Serbia had a population of more than 2.3 million, but this time and space will be much worse! !!
First, the economic crisis was overshadowed by Ferdinand, with heavy losses; and because of the arms race provoked by Ferdinand, the domestic contradictions were intensified. Two years later, more than 100,000 Serbs died in the civil war;
Immediately afterwards, the war broke out again. This time, nearly a third of the territory was lost. The direct loss of the population was more than 300,000, and the economic loss was countless! !!
As of now, the total population of Serbia is less than 1.7 million, and there is a serious shortage of young labor force. Most of the young people have been wrapped up in horse leather, naturally they lack the main force of trouble! !!
On the surface, it seems that the Austro-Hungarian Empire helped Serbia stabilize the situation. In fact, there are nearly 300,000 irregular bombs that have not been removed! !!
Long-term upbringing? ? Austro-Hungary is not a philanthropist! !!
Give them a way to make a living? ? Most of the 300,000 people are old, weak, and sick. What can you do? ?
This is not all the case, in fact, there are still resources to use, after all, all the young men on the battlefield have little relationship with women!
Even so, in the short term, the 300,000 population will still be the burden of Serbia, and the Serbian government is now bankrupt, and the Austrian-Hungarian boss can only help for the time being!
No one can stand it for a long time, and at that moment it will be the moment when the contradictions between the two parties intensify!
However, this has nothing to do with Ferdinand. After crossing Serbia, the border line has advanced more than 100 kilometers, and it is mainly in the hilly region. The strategic security of the capital Sofia has been guaranteed!
And within 20 years, Serbia has not given Bulgaria the ability to make chaos. Twenty years later, if Bulgaria still has to worry about Serbia, Ferdinand will not have to confuse and find a piece of tofu and knock it to death! !!
阴影 The shadow of the failure of the Second Balkan War has completely disappeared! !! Without Serbia as the main force, several other small countries in the Balkans, even if added together, Bulgaria is enough to cope! !!
各国 Balkan countries at the end of the 19th century: Montenegro has few people and can be ignored directly; Greece's poor finances and a navy, so it is natural that the army's combat effectiveness is deserted; what really poses a threat to Bulgaria is Romania! !!
Romanian Carol I was of military origin and has always attached great importance to the development of armaments, but what about the combat effectiveness of the army? It can only be regarded as careless. The soldiers in the plains can't afford the soldiers in the mountains. There is nothing unexpected! !!
以 Originally, Romania had the opportunity to develop based on the natural conditions of Romania. Unfortunately, who is called Romania's position is not good? ?
The west is connected to Austria-Hungary, the north is connected to the bears, the south is connected to Bulgaria, and the direction of expansion is blocked! !!
On the surface, the only breakthrough direction seems to be the annexation of Bulgaria to the south, and then the of the Balkan region! !!
In fact, history proves that this simply does not work, regardless of the attitudes of the two major powers around them. In terms of pure military strength, the Romanian army from the Plains region can't do the sturdy Bulgarian army! !!
Then there is no more. As neighbours with ambitious fur bears, you must be careful. There is no residue left that will be swallowed! !!
It can be said that as long as the powers do not go all out, the Balkans can no longer threaten Bulgaria's existence!
The question of Serbia can be left aside for now! New land governance is the big problem now!
The population is hard-wound. On a land of 18,000 square kilometers, the population living on it is less than 20,000! There is no previous 5%. There is nothing we can do to develop and use this land!
Who can tell Ferdinand to send everyone back to Serbia? The local Bulgarian population is small, and some ethnic groups that are easy to assimilate, still less than 20,000 people!
Immigration is a must. How to settle the difficult problem facing the Bulgarian government?
Obviously, it is necessary to develop industry. Later generations have proved that the most suitable area is Nis, but unfortunately, Nis is now the new border of Posse!
Jeff Ferdinand is so confident that he will not be stupid enough to put industry on the border. In case the Serbs suddenly go crazy and come over to disrupt it, the losses will be great!
Industrial is not enough, you just need to engage in agriculture! !! Except for the riverside areas and some plains, most of the other areas are mountains and hills ~ EbookFREE.me ~ It is more difficult to develop!
However, Ferdinand is not worried about this problem. There will be more rural poor in the future, and the outbreak of this problem is at least a problem in the middle and late 20th century!
末 At the end of the 19th century, everyone's living standards were not bad. Although the incomes of urban residents and remote mountain areas were somewhat different, their living standards were similar, struggling on the poverty line and the life and death line! !!
Jeff Ferdinand thought about it, and decided to take out a part of the land in the plains and reward it to soldiers who have fought for merit, stimulate morale, and cultivate a group of high-quality military aristocrats! !!
When I read the history book, we know that the officers of civilian origin are not as good as the aristocracy! !!
Germany in World War I is the best example. Even if the Junker aristocracy controls the high position of the army and prevents the fair promotion channels of civilian officers, their fighting power is still the highest in the world! !!
Isn't Bulgaria called Prussian Balkan? ? Let them be more real now! !!
As for the aftermath? ? Ferdinand believes that the rising military aristocracy can still suppress himself! !!
As for the future? ? After two world wars, the birth of nuclear weapons, and the stabilization of the world situation, military aristocrats in peacetime will naturally have a much smaller influence, and there is no hidden danger! !!
For the remaining part, farms will be established in the plains; in mountainous areas, the direct operation will cost too much, and the bankrupt farmers will be recruited for reclamation.
Now that a decision has been made, Ferdinand has not procrastinated, leaving the matter directly to the cabinet government.
After all, it is easy to make a plan, but the implementation is very troublesome. Ferdinand does n’t have that much energy to ask, of course, the main thing is
lazy
