Bulgarian Empire

Negotiations are about to start, and all parties have been fighting openly and secretly for their interests!

At this time, Ferdinand was holding a secret meeting in Sofia's palace.

"Minister of Foreign Affairs, first introduce the positions held by various countries in this negotiation!"

"Yes!" The foreign minister replied heartily.

"Judging from the current situation, China, France and Russia are supporting us in this negotiation, while Germany and Austria are leaning towards the Ottoman Empire, and the attitude of the British is unclear!

However, according to the analysis of our Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the possibility of the British continuing to be neutral is very high. They suffered heavy losses in the Boer War!

And for a long time to come, their main energy will be concentrated on the Boers!

In order to reduce the pressure, the British may further provoke the confrontation between the French-Russian alliance and the German-Austrian-Italian alliance!

The poor performance of the lobster soldiers on the battlefield has seriously affected the support rate of the London government among the people. The Salisbury cabinet is under great pressure now!

This time, the British government strongly advocated that the venue of the negotiation should be in London, which is not without the purpose of diverting the public's attention!

Maintaining European balance has always been the most important diplomatic strategy of the British, and this time is no exception! Through the analysis of the international situation, we judge that in this negotiation, the British should make a series of small moves! "

Prime Minister Constantine thought for a while and said: "At present, the influence of the Franco-Russian alliance in the Balkans is much stronger than that of the German-Austrian alliance!

In other words, in this negotiation, whether we can get the benefit of the reservation depends to a large extent on the attitudes of France and Russia, or how much support the Russians have for us? "

The Foreign Minister nodded and said: "That's right! Now in the continent of Europe, the Franco-Russian alliance and the Triple Alliance of Germany, Austria and Italy are basically evenly matched, and the Franco-Russian alliance has a slight advantage!

Now the two major alliances are wary of the British. In order to avoid being profited by the fisherman, many times everyone is avoiding intensifying conflicts with each other! "

Ferdinand nodded in satisfaction. Now the Bulgarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has really grown up, and its judgment on these general directions is still very accurate.

Historically, the Franco-Russian Entente and the Triple Alliance of Germany, Austria and Italy have been confronted for more than ten years, and basically no major conflicts have arisen. Even if they have reached the brink of war a few times, they have been resolved under the restraint of both parties!

It wasn't until the British joined the Allied Powers that the conflicts between the two alliances began to intensify rapidly, eventually leading to war! It would be strange if there was no English handwriting in it!

Some people say that the hatred between Germany and Germany cannot be alleviated, but Ferdinand knows that it is all nonsense, as long as there are enough interests, there is no contradiction that cannot be resolved!

Franco-German cooperation in history is not unheard of. Whether it is the "three countries intervening to return the Liao Dynasty", or now Germany and France are working together to block the British in Africa, the governments of the two countries have cooperated!

If we really want to talk about hatred, Britain and France are deadly enemies. Both sides have fought for hundreds of years. Even now, the conflict of interests between the two sides is much greater than that of Germany and France!

There is no if in history, but the diplomacy of the British Empire is so awesome! The ability to manipulate public opinion is also leveraged, and republican France just wants to eat this again!

Now that the people of Germany and France are already at odds, in a few years, France and Germany will consider each other to be their worst enemies, and even the hatred between Britain and France will be suppressed!

"In this negotiation, what do we need to obtain and what do we have to give? Let's talk about what you think now!" Ferdinand asked

The Minister of Industry said firmly: "We must get all of the Kosovo area. There is coal we need for steelmaking, which is very important to Bulgaria's heavy industry!"

Minister of Education Chekhov went on to say: "China, Eastern Thrace, and Macedonian regions must also get all of them this time!

Since 20 years ago, Bulgaria has invested heavily in operations here, and now we occupy a dominant position in this region, with a solid popular base, and it is easy to integrate! "

The chancellor added: "The Istanbul region is the most elite region in the Balkans,

If we win this area, our financial revenue will increase substantially, which will help alleviate the financial crisis! "

"For the sake of long-term development, we must have an outlet in the Mediterranean Sea! It is best to annex Epirus and Albania!" The Minister of Trade said excitedly

...

Ferdinand thought about it, and it was almost the same. According to everyone, basically the area actually controlled by Bulgaria is now in his pocket!

It's similar to Ferdinand's idea, Bulgaria is too small, and the land in the Balkans is very important to Bulgaria!

Besides, the meat that has already been eaten in the mouth, why should I spit it out!

Even if Germany and Austria support the Ottoman Empire, so what? Could they still send troops directly to help the Ottomans recover their lost ground?

If you can't send troops directly, what are you afraid of them doing? The Germans today are not as proud as Germany during the First World War. They donated money and supplies to make the Ottomans fight. They still don't have that family background!

Ferdinand finally decided: "In this case, let's negotiate with the Ottoman Empire based on our actual dividing line!

What the Ottomans couldn't get on the battlefield, they couldn't even get it on the negotiating table!

In addition to the territory, other war reparations and captive ransom issues can be handled by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs at its discretion! "

Well, it's all up to this point, and neither side has any bargaining chips to let the other party continue to bleed!

The territory of the Ottoman Empire in Europe is almost lost, and now it is broken! If it weren't for the "Bulgarian Navy" still patronizing the Ottoman coastline, it is estimated that they would not even bother to negotiate!

Similarly, now Bulgaria has nothing to do with the Ottoman Empire. Apart from Constantinople, it will be Asia Minor.

As for the issue of captives, it is estimated that it will have some effect on other European countries, but the Ottomans said that they don't care about it, and if they want to kill them, they will do as they please!

Like Ferdinand, Nicholas I is also preparing to establish the Kingdom of Montenegro. Of course, they are farther away, and now they can't reach the Ottoman Empire!

"Bastards! They're all a bunch of bastards..." King George I yelled angrily

Since the defeat in the Greek-Turkish War, he has basically never seen his smiling face. Now both allies are busy dividing up the Ottoman inheritance, but what about the Greek government?

They don't even have the ability to regain lost ground. Even because of the existence of the Greek navy, after the defeat of the Ottomans in the Marmara Sea Battle, they have control of the sea, which is still useless!

The Edhe-Pasha Legion set up their headquarters in the Royal Palace of Athens with great fanfare. The Greeks could only watch angrily and could do nothing!

The army can't beat it, and the navy can't bombard its own capital with naval guns, and it's still the palace, right? Even if it is now fallen, you still can't do this!

As for supplies, let alone. With its own ammunition reserves, plus the seizures in Greece, and no major battles, the ammunition is basically enough!

food? Anyway, it's not his own land, Edhe Pasha can search as much as he wants, and before the Greeks starve to death, they won't be short of food!

The foreign minister said tragically: "Everyone, now Bulgaria and Montenegro have reached an agreement on the division of the European territory of the Ottoman Empire, and Greece has been ruthlessly abandoned!"

"How can this be done? This is naked betrayal, and the great Greek kingdom will never tolerate this kind of betrayal!" Xiang said excitedly

"Bulgaria and Monte Negro require us to be completely consistent with them in the negotiations. In return, they will ask the Ottomans to withdraw from our land, otherwise~~" Foreign Minister Zhan Keke said

"Otherwise what?" demanded the Home Secretary.

"Otherwise, in this negotiation, they will not support any terms that are beneficial to Greece, even if they only require the Ottoman army to withdraw from the Greek territory, they will not support it!" George I said coldly

"Are they using the interests of Greece to make a deal with the Ottomans? Aren't the Bulgarians afraid of future revenge from the Ottoman Empire?" Xiang said in disbelief.

But as soon as he finished speaking, he regretted it. With the status quo of the Ottoman Empire, it might collapse one day. Just think about revenge. Now the Sudanese government can solve internal problems!

At this time, George I was distraught, and the victory he had been waiting for came, but he had no share in the fruits of victory!

Bottom line? Does this have anything to do with the Greek government now? Being able to keep the mainland is the only bottom line for the Greek government now!

In fact, Greece is not the most tragic situation now. Although it has suffered heavy losses, it has gained the title of a victorious country. The strategically important island of Crete has also been included in the bag, which is better than nothing!

The Sudanese government is the real big loser. In addition to losing all the territory in Europe, the political influence is fatal!

The weak nature of the Ottoman Empire has been exposed. It is conceivable that a carve-up frenzy against the Ottoman Empire is coming soon!

As for recovering losses? The Sudanese government is still very experienced in this regard. Since entering the 19th century, basically every time they are defeated, they have to be cut off, and they have never been taken back!

Now they are still struggling, just to lose with more dignity!

After the Black Sea Fleet entered the Sea of ​​Marmara, it was impossible for the Russians to let go. Now even if the British Mediterranean Fleet comes over, this situation cannot be changed!

Controlling one side of the Dardanelles, plus the Black Sea Fleet, if the Russians still can't hold it, they can't afford the name of a great power!
