Romanian Eagle

When proposals for Soviet peace talks reached Bucharest, Eder was also grieving over the war.

Although the results of this war were good, four divisions of the Soviet army were annihilated and four divisions were severely damaged. The other battles added up to the loss of the Soviet army to 112,000. However, the Romanian soldiers were not invulnerable, and the losses were not small. According to the statistics of the military, more than 47,000 officers and soldiers were killed, missing or injured.

The pensions of these people alone are a lot of money, and together with the loss of weapons and equipment, as well as the consumption of military supplies, the total cost of this battle is about 50 million US dollars. It can be said that the sound of a cannon is a thousand taels of gold, and the ancients did not deceive me.

And this battle made Eder also know that the danger of hitting the edge ball is easy to overdo it if you are not careful. The conflict with the Soviet Union was a sign of his own failure. He originally planned to have a Zhang Gufeng incident, but ended up playing a local war. Fortunately, both sides had scruples to control the scale, otherwise a full-scale war is likely to break out.

But the final result was good. If the war was lost, it would be the loss of the wife and the loss of the army.

And this also reminded Edel, don't take drastic actions thinking that you know the trend of history, or you might shoot yourself in the foot.

And it was here that Prime Minister Caraturi hurried over with Foreign Minister Kostel.

"Your Majesty, this is a proposal for peace talks from the Soviet Union."

Prime Minister Karaturi handed the Soviet diplomacy. The happy expressions on the faces of both of them were, after all, both high-level government officials, no better than those civilians. I still know very well the gap between the two countries, and I also know that the smaller the scale of this battle is, the better it will be for Romania. And before that, what the government was most afraid of was that the Soviet Union would launch a larger-scale war because of its defeat in the battlefield. Although this possibility is very small, it is also a possibility.

And let Romania practice against the Soviet Union alone, not only the government has no confidence, even Edel and the military have no confidence in this. The main reason is that the population gap is too large. Even if a few Soviet soldiers kill a Romanian soldier, Eder cannot afford to lose.

So when Edel saw the news about the proposal for peace talks, he was relieved.

"What advice do you have on peace talks?"

Edel looked at the two and asked.

Facing Edel's question, Costel, the foreign minister, answered immediately. "According to the wishes of the government, it is naturally willing to negotiate with the Soviet Union. However, we need to choose a place as the place for the peace talks, and we also need to negotiate with the Soviet Union in terms of time.

"

"That's Warsaw."

As for the location of the peace talks, of course, the country concerned cannot be chosen, so it can only be negotiated in other countries. And Eder took into account the current relationship with various countries, and set up this location in Poland, which has the best relationship at present. It can also be regarded as helping Poland to improve its international status, and it can be regarded as a benefit given casually.

"As for the specific time, it can be discussed with the Soviet Union. I believe they, like us, are willing to end the war as soon as possible."

After Edel finished talking about the time and place, he continued. "And in terms of conditions, Mount Helmek must be ours."

For the Helmek Mountain, which caused the conflict between the two sides, it must be under the control of Romania. This is also Edel's explanation to the Romanian people, otherwise why let the domestic media publicize the meaning of this battle. What can you do to improve the self-confidence of the domestic people? You can't just talk about it, you need to show evidence. The fact that Mount Helmek is under Romanian control is the best proof.

"And other issues regarding the return of weapons from the exchange of prisoners, we can also discuss with the Soviet side."

Edel still doesn't understand the communist country, don't even think about reparations.

It's hard to say that, unless you can knock it down, it's impossible. As for the Brest contract signed by Lenin at the time, it was under the weight of the question of survival. And after seeing the opportunity, didn't Soviet Russia tore up the contract? As for Stalin's quest for peace in World War II, it was nothing but a tactic to delay troops. If Hitler really agreed, he would get two years of peace at most. When the strength of the Soviet Union recovered, he would continue to fight. This is also the reason why Hitler refused Stalin's request for peace. He had already seen that Stalin was just asking for a breather.

After Edel explained the basic conditions of the peace talks, they both breathed a sigh of relief. They also didn't know that their king knew the Soviet Union very well, and they were most afraid of the king's radical ideas. This will make the peace talks more difficult, and the possibility of a collapse of the talks cannot be ruled out.

And now the conditions given by Edel make the success rate of the peace talks very high. So the two left contentedly after receiving Edel's reply.

When the Prime Minister and others left, he saw his son Victor's face was blue and purple, and he ran to him in a military uniform with a look of grievance.

Now Victor sent him to the military academy to study, and he was not allowed to reveal his identity as a prince.

"Have a fight with someone?"

Seeing the tragic image of his son, Edel asked.

"They beat me."

Victor said aggrievedly that he was beaten.

According to Victor, he got into an argument over a trivial matter and then got into a fight.

Of course, Edel wouldn't listen to his son's words completely, and saw that he recruited a guard to let him know the situation. It wasn't until the guard informed him of what he had learned that Edel knew that this matter was not as small as his son said.

Victor, who concealed his identity in the military academy, was disliked by other classmates because of his mischievous nature. Then he was beaten up by someone for arguing with others.

"Do you know why you were beaten by others?"

Looking at his son who was still aggrieved, Edel asked.

"Because they don't like me."

"A person doesn't like you, maybe it's his reason, but a group of people don't like you, it's their reason?"

Victor, who was educated by Edel, was speechless.

I saw Edel continued to speak. "If it's your own fault, then you need to make a change. Find out why you're unpopular."

Edel regretted not being able to discipline his son after he sent away Victor, who didn't know much. Now that Victor still has a shapeable form, he needs to be trained in the military academy. If the personality is fixed after adulthood, it will be troublesome.

Peace talks between Romania and the Soviet Union are progressing rapidly, with both sides intent on ending a war that has become meaningless.

So when the Soviet representative Molotov and the Romanian representative Kostel signed in Warsaw, it represented the end of the Russo-Su war.

As a result, the territories of the two countries remained unchanged except for the return of Mount Helmek to Romania. In addition, the two countries will return the weapons of the prisoners to each other, and the living expenses of the prisoners also need to be paid by themselves. The main reason was that the Soviet army had more prisoners, and more than 10,000 prisoners needed expenses, and naturally the Soviet Union had to pay the bill.

Overall it was a mutually satisfactory contract, Romania turned its attention abroad, and its national self-esteem was boosted after the victory. The Soviet Union saw its gap in this war, and believed that the next step would be to catch up.
