Bulgarian Empire

Vol 4 Chapter 158: , The czar in action

In the golden autumn of October, the annual harvest season has come again. The joy of the harvest has smoothed the pain caused by the world war. The whole of Bulgaria is bathed in the joy of the harvest!

"Your Majesty, the Russian envoy, Earl Paul, is here!" The maid walked into Ferdinand's ear and whispered.

Ferdinand put down the documents in his hands, and the Russians still came to the door, both in his expectation and unexpectedly!

It stands to reason that the Russians should have come to ask for help a long time ago. Whether it is the Russian Civil War or the Paris Peace Conference, Nicholas II is now inseparable from Bulgaria's support!

Ferdinand did not expect that the Russians could wait until now. It is necessary to know that coming one day later would be a great loss to the Russian Empire!

The Russians are still in Germany with the largest force. Without Bulgaria’s support, it would be impossible for them to return home. The Czarist government is now simply unable to provide them with logistical supplies.

"Bring him here, I'll see him right here!" Ferdinand said lightly

Compared with the previous year, Count Paul is old, he has long lost his original spirit, and he is no longer the ambassador to Bulgaria, but his spirit is still very good.

They have been "old friends" for many years, and the meeting between the two is very casual. It can be seen that he is a little anxious, and Ferdinand is no longer familiar.

"What would you like to drink? Feel free to!" Ferdinand said lightly

"I still have coffee!" Count Paul replied

The maid handed him a cup of coffee as soon as he finished speaking, which was obviously already prepared. Not only coffee, but other teas and snacks are available 24 hours a day in the palace. In this regard, Ferdinand did not intend to treat himself badly.

"Paul, what do you still need to do?" Ferdinand said casually

Earl Paul smiled bitterly and said: "Didn't your Majesty ask knowingly? There are three things I came here today: First, we hope to get the support of His Majesty at the Paris Peace Conference; Second, our expeditionary force returns to China and needs His Majesty's support; Finally, in the upcoming civil war, we hope that His Majesty can block the Black Sea and cut off the channel of overseas supplies for the Rebellious Party!"

Ferdinand's face sank, and said solemnly: "These problems are very troublesome, let's talk about them one by one!

First of all, I want to know, what do you want at the Paris Peace Conference? Can you decide whether to support you? "

Paul thought that it was so. Now Bulgaria is no longer the little brother of the Russian Empire. He has to speak with interests in everything, but he is not unprepared.

"As a member of the Allied Powers, we also made significant contributions in this war. We eliminated at least 2 million Austro-Hungarian troops and 1.5 million German troops.

Even for the benefit of the alliance, there was a rebellion in the Russian Empire, so we need to get enough compensation! "

Ferdinand interrupted impatiently: "Paul, everyone is old friends, there is no need to come so many fakes, just say what you want!"

Count Paul's heart suddenly fell silent, and the situation was worse than they expected. From Ferdinand's attitude, it can be seen that Bulgaria's support for the Russian Empire has changed this time.

After all, he was accustomed to the wind and waves. Count Paul quickly adjusted his mood and did not try again. He directly showed the bottom line: "We hope that the entire Polish region and the Germans will be in the Baltic Sea port and Russia The Empire hopes to receive 8 billion pounds of war reparations!"

Ferdinand rolled his eyes, thinking that the Russians would really dare to speak. If it were the Russian Empire in its heyday, they would not be excessive at all, or even low!

But the Russian Empire, which is undergoing the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, is not qualified to do so. Even if Poland is given to them, is the Tsarist government still capable of ruling?

In the case of continuous civil unrest, you still want to expand the territory. How much water is in your brain to get it?

After a moment of silence, Ferdinand slowly said, "Is this your bottom line? With your current strength, you still plan to continue fighting the Austro-Hungarian Empire?"

This is not Ferdinand’s whispers. The Austro-Hungarian Empire has joined the Allied Powers. For the purpose of restricting the Russian Empire, Britain and France simply cannot support their annexation of Austrian Poland.

Without the support of Britain and France, the Russian Empire wants to obtain Austrian Poland. Now the Vienna government is not afraid of the teddy bears of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Count Paul's face sank. He knew that Ferdinand was rejecting their request. Originally, their plan was to use Bulgaria’s support to force the Austro-Hungarian Empire to make concessions, but now Ferdinand has already expressed his attitude. Will intervene in the dispute between them and the Austro-Hungarian Empire!

"Well then, we can always get German Poland?" Earl Burrow said unwillingly

As a staunch supporter of Great Chauvinism, letting him make concessions on the territory is undoubtedly a knife in his heart!

After thinking for a while, Ferdinand smiled and said: "This is your problem. I first declare that Bulgaria can support you at the Paris Peace Conference, but there is no guarantee that it will succeed!"

Ferdinand had a secret smile in his heart, this is not sure whether it will succeed, but it must be impossible! Thinking that Britain and France are still their allies now?

Or could it be said that Nicholas II thought that he had made concessions to Bulgaria in the partition of the Ottoman Empire, in exchange for Bulgaria's full support?

Now the Caucasus region, but the territory of the little Nicholas I, even if it is profitable, it is also an enemy for Nicholas II. Can they do it?

Moreover, even if he could get it, little Nicholas I did not have the energy to expand the territory of the Russian Empire. People who have this energy might as well use it to grab land in the country!

Wait until the day after tomorrow's Paris Peace Conference, when the three Russian Empire delegations appear, there will be a lively watch!

I really want the lion to speak up. It is estimated that Britain and France would not mind changing to a Russian delegation to participate in the peace meeting. Anyway, there are two spare tires. They are all representatives of the Russian Empire, right?

Without the full support of Bulgaria, Earl Paul said with some disappointment: "Well then! Your Majesty's matter about the expeditionary army returning to China, you see..."

This time Ferdinand said very readily: "No problem! Bulgaria will provide them with one month's logistical materials free of charge to ensure that they can return home smoothly!"

Count Paul hesitated to speak, and frankly said that Ferdinand had done enough in this regard. He didn't embarrass them at all, and provided them with one month's provision for free. He was embarrassed to speak again!

Ferdinand looked at Paul’s performance and knew what he was thinking, so he said with great pride: "In view of the friendly relationship between our two countries, then I will give you another 500,000 rifles, 3,000 machine guns, and Eight hundred cannons are ready!"

Well, these weapons were all needed for the previous war. The Russians had been equipped with weapons. Somehow they helped to fight the Germans. He was too embarrassed to take them back.

Anyway, the world war is over, weapons and equipment are really worthless at this time, and they can only be scrapped when they are returned. However, weapons and equipment can be given away for free, but the Russians have to buy the ammunition at their own expense, and this business will never lose!

I don’t know about the Earl Paul who fell into the pit, and he said very happily: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your help. The Russian people will always remember it!"

"The Russian people will always remember it." After hearing this, Ferdinand almost choked. If the Russian people knew what he did, they would really remember it, and it would still be the kind of gritted teeth. !

I want to return, but Ferdinand is still very happy on the face, waiting for the words from Earl Paul.

After a pause, Earl Paul continued: "Your Majesty, the question of blocking the Black Sea?"

Ferdinand's face suddenly collapsed, and he sighed and said: "This matter is very troublesome. It is not convenient for our status to do it personally. Why don't you send someone over to do it yourself!"

Anyway, our two countries also have a covenant ~www.novelmtl.com~ to share military ports, we sell you a few warships, and we can lend you two more ports! "

There was also this kind of operation, Count Paul was dumbfounded, but after thinking about it, he suddenly realized that there was still a precedent. Didn't they just stabbed the Ottoman Empire like this before? Is there any problem with the operation now?

The task was simply completed. Count Paul was a little unbelievable. He was planning to take the harem route, but now it seems that he doesn't need it anymore.

Count Paul was a little excited and said, "No problem, thank you so much!"

Ferdinand smiled slightly, and did not forget to remind him kindly: "It is best that the people you send are clean and have a higher level of ability. With regard to the current level of integrity of your country's officials, I very much doubt that your blockade will exist in name only! "

These words embarrassed Earl Paul. There are really not a few clean officials in the Russian Empire. Even he himself is not a good product. However, this time it is of great importance and it is related to the survival of the tsarist government.

"Your Majesty, please rest assured, this time we won't be in trouble!" Earl Paul said with a guarantee.

Ferdinand smiled slightly, thinking that ghosts worried that you would have trouble, if it were not for making money, he would not care whether the Russian blockade could be established!

If Nicholas II really sealed off the Black Sea, then the Moscow government and the little Nicholas I would have to go by land if they wanted to buy supplies. In this regard, Bulgaria’s geographic location would not have a natural advantage. ?

Without attacking competitors, when will Bulgaria’s scrapped weapons and equipment and remaining strategic materials be disposed of?
