Mediterranean Hegemony Road

Time passed quickly, and half a year passed.

After leaving the three Nordic countries, Ferdinand has successively visited the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, Portugal and other countries. Now he is about to reach the last stop of the trip in London!

Ferridan has made a lot of progress along the way, and has also caused a lot of trouble. The big nations are just fine, but for the small nations, Ferdinand's arrival is like an enemy!

After all, a heavily armed army of more than 3,000 people is not so well placed. The housing problem alone is a headache!

To some extent, Ferdinand was also an armed march this time, showing Bulgarian strength to the outside world.

After Jeff Ferdinand left, his story remained on the way, letting many people see what the king of the new century is doing!

This is the third time Ferdinand has come to London. The last time she passed away was Queen Victoria's death. Only two years had passed.

Compared to the last time, Edward ’s aura is much stronger this time, and the hippie smiles of the past are not seen anymore. It seems that the emperor career is the easiest to change a person!

Everyone's relationship is good. After a few words of humiliation, I went directly to the topic.

Ferdinand asked directly: "Edward, I want to know your diplomatic position in the Mediterranean?"

愣 Edward a moment, without a direct answer, said with a smile: "I thought you would ask, what about our dispute with the Russians in the Far East?"

"No, the dispute between the Russians and you in the Far East has nothing to do with Bulgaria! You should know that in the Far East we have almost no interest, so what do you still love to do!" Ferdinand said lightly

"Aren't you allies? Now the world knows that Bulgaria is the most loyal ally of the Russians, wouldn't you care?" Edward asked in confusion.

Jeff Ferdinand smiled and said, "Come on! Allies are allies, but I know you can't fight for the Far East problem, it's enough to know that!

As for the contradictions between you, as a small country, Bulgaria still has to participate less!

Besides your doorstep, other areas are not within the care of Bulgaria. You can rest assured!

Global strategy is something that you should consider. Who is the world hegemony and the relationship with Bulgaria is really small! "

With a smile, Edward VII, he has determined the position of Bulgaria, there is no major conflict of interest between the two sides, and laughed: "This is the best way to know that France and Russia are adding you, the combined forces have exceeded the Mediterranean fleet We are also worried! "

Ferdinand was a little stunned, yes, he knew that the Russian navy was parallel imports, but the British did not know!

In recent years, the Russians have greatly expanded the navy, especially the original Black Sea Fleet. In just six or seven years, the number of battleships has doubled!

Now France and Russia rank two or three of the world's naval powers, especially after the Russians have taken control of the Dardanelles, they may enter the Mediterranean at any time!

Once the two countries joined forces, the fleet tonnage has surpassed the British's Mediterranean fleet. It is estimated that the British are now at the bottom of their hearts!

"What if the Russian Black Sea Fleet departed from the Mediterranean?" Ferdinand asked back

A moment later, Edward asked, wondering, "What do you want?"

如果 "If your country can abandon Greece, then we can cooperate to let the Russian Black Sea Fleet leave!" Ferdinand said lightly

Edward shook his head and said, "No! Your appetite is too big, Bulgaria's expansion should stop, or the balance in the Balkans will be disrupted!

Unless you can tear up the Bulgarian-Russian alliance and ban the Russians from using the harbor, blocking the Black Sea Fleet back! "

Jeff Ferdinand still smiled and said, "No, there is nothing impossible. The expansion of Bulgaria will not affect the interests of the British Empire. The real concern should be the Austro-Hungarian Empire!

Use a dispensable Greece in exchange for the disappearance of the Black Sea Fleet, for your country, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages! "

Edward thought for a while and said, "You first talk about how to make the Black Sea Fleet disappear forever, I'm making a decision!"

Uh ...

He ended his conversation with Ferdinand, and Edward VII held a cabinet meeting to discuss it.

"You guys talk, how do you think about this?"

The Minister of the Navy first said: "His Majesty, the Bulgarian proposal is theoretically feasible, but how can we guarantee that the Japanese can kill the Russian fleet?

Although the Japanese navy has developed very well, the gap in strength cannot be filled in a short time! "

Well, Greece has been automatically ignored by him! There is no way that the current Greek King is still George I, a typical pro-German, and their relationship with Britain is not as good as future generations!

If replaced by the Saxony-Coburg-Gotha king, Ferdinand would not even have this proposal. After all, if you start with your own family, even if Ferdinand has no psychological pressure and is limited by the rules of this era, you can't do it!

The prime minister thought for a while and asked, "If we help the Japanese expand their strength now, in theory, how long will they be able to fight the Russians?"

The Minister of the Navy thought for a while and said, "It depends on whether the Russians will do their best. With the Russian Far East Fleet now, the Japanese can do it now!"

But the Russian Black Sea Fleet and the Baltic Fleet ~ www.novelmtl.com ~ can add up to third in the world. As long as half of the warships are mobilized, the Japanese can't stop them! "

The Chancellor of the Treasury said, "You guys, the financial situation of the Japanese is not so good. I don't think they can win the Russians!"

Uh ...

Jeff Ferdinand was miscalculated. Now the British do not think that Japan can win the Russians. Therefore, his proposal was ignored by the London government!

Well, Ferdinand had no hope of annexing Greece. Even the British agreed, it was useless. Germany and Austria-Hungary would never agree!

This is just a test of his attitude towards the British. After all, Bulgaria needs to have the support of the British or be neutral if he wants to achieve further development, or stay at home honestly!

Sorry, his trip to London failed this time. Now that there are enough European powers, the British obviously do not plan to let Bulgaria join!

This is determined at the national strategic level, not his personal relationship with Edward can be changed!

The trip to London could not achieve the purpose, Ferdinand's trip around Europe seemed much bleak!

Just as he was leaving, Edward brought him good news, diluting the shadow of failure in Ferdinand's heart!
