Chapter 235 Romania's Temptation (1)

Prime Minister Bretianu is completely unaware of Karaturi's actions. Even if he knew, he would not have any worries about Karaturi's actions. Because Romania's rapid development is in his hands, and he himself

He is destined to be recorded in Romanian history. There is no possibility of bypassing him in later records of this period.

So now Prime Minister Brutianou's vision has been focused on the situation in Europe, and he is completely disdainful of the sneaky conspiracies in the country. Prime Minister Brutianou now has quite a sense of confidence that the general trend is in his favor.

The people who gave him this confidence were the ambassadors of Britain, France, and Russia. Now Germany is fighting to the death with France in Verdun, and both sides have exhausted their best efforts. In order to alleviate France's passive situation in Verdun, Britain also plans to counterattack in a reactionary manner.

The strength of the German army. Even Russia, which was severely weakened last year, was forcibly dragged into the war by Britain and France.

In the spring of this year, the Russian army of up to 2 million people launched a counterattack against Germany and Austria. Now the German and Austrian armies and the Russian army are fighting fiercely on the Polish plains. According to the latest information obtained by Prime Minister Buletianu, the Russian army Lu

Tsk defeated the Austro-Hungarian Fourth Army. Now the Russian army's breakthrough against Austria-Hungary is just around the corner. Under the command of the new Russian commander-in-chief Brushilov, the Russian army has formed multiple breakthroughs in the Austro-Hungarian defense line. It seems that

In this war, the Austro-Hungarian army could only regain some confidence in Italy.

Now every German and Austrian force is being used to the limit on every battlefield. If Romania joins the war now, no one will be able to defend them. Prime Minister Bretianu is a little moved. He thinks this is the best opportunity for Romania to join the war.

At the Prime Minister's residence, Bretianu was discussing with his cousin Ventille Bretianu.

"What are the conditions they are offering now?"

Facing his cousin's inquiry, Windy Le, who has been responsible for secretly contacting the ambassadors of Britain, France and Russia, replied. "The conditions given by the ambassadors of the three countries have been loosened. They no longer only give the Transiniva region as reward.

They have begun to agree to some of our other territorial claims."

"They agreed that those areas would be transferred to us after the war?"

“The region of Barnet and the area east of Saraished from Krisana to Sebis are all ours.”

Prime Minister Bretianu immediately found the above location on the map behind him. The concessions made by the three countries this time were relatively large. This is a territory that will cover an area of ​​20,000 square kilometers, and there are nearly one million Romanians, Hungarians, and others living here.

German, Serbian and other nationalities, but there is still a big gap between the requirements he issued. In this world, Prime Minister Bretianu relied on Romania's 400,000 sophisticated troops and 400,000 reinforced reserves, so he issued

On the condition that everything east of the Tisza River belongs to Romania.

The three Allied ambassadors were stunned by the prime minister's appetite. They wanted to push their national borders to the Hungarian plains and seize a lot of their plains. Mainly if they agreed to the Romanian prime minister's request

Under the conditions, its population will immediately double and its territory will expand 1.2 times. This is really a big opening for a lion.

Even though Prime Minister Bretianu put forward such unpleasant conditions, the ambassadors of the three countries did not close the door to negotiations, but tested Romania's bottom line bit by bit. However, Prime Minister Bretianu remained unmoved.

Still insisting on his own conditions. Because he has clearly seen the reality of the Three Kingdoms. Now the Three Kingdoms need Romania's entry, and this is also his trust in the Romanian army.

This is not Romania, which had not prepared for war in its previous life and could only rush to war. After ten years of military preparations, it can be said that the Romanian army has reached the same level as the great powers, and even surpassed it in some aspects after two wars.

Years of armies from various countries. In terms of weapons, equipment and training level, the Romanian army is stronger than Russia and Austria-Hungary, not to mention other small countries. Therefore, Prime Minister Bretianu can definitely put forward conditions that satisfy him.

Cousin Ventiler looked at Prime Minister Bretianu who had been staring at the map. After a period of inner struggle, he said, "Cousin, is it really okay for us to negotiate terms in private like this?"

Looking at his cousin's worried face, Prime Minister Bretianu smiled and said, "Why are you worried about me?"

"Yes."

Ventiler has been in the government for a long time, and he is very clear about who can make decisions about Romania now. So after his cousin found him, he was already very worried about negotiating with the Allies, for fear of offending the people who actually controlled Romania.

The powerful Edel was angry.

Now he finally couldn't help but ask his cousin about the doubts in his heart.

After hearing his cousin's concerns, Prime Minister Bretianu decided to explain to his cousin.

"Now it is Romania's opportunity to join the Entente. Our current situation is quite good. The main reason is that neither Germany nor our neighbor Bulgaria has the energy to take care of us. As long as we cross the Transylvani Mountains, we can directly enter Hungary.

Plain. By that time, Austria-Hungary will have no force that can stop our progress."

Prime Minister Bretianu said that he fully understood the future war situation. In fact, this was not imagined. This was Chief of General Staff Preshan explaining to Edel the plan for the war against Austria-Hungary. In addition to Austria-Hungary, Prussia actually

Lieshan also explained the country's plans against Russia and Bulgaria. Their general staff has made many combat plans for neighboring countries, but these plans have been left to gather dust in the combat staff office.

And Bretianu had a profound understanding of Austria-Hungary's battle plan, so he did not forget to think about his dream of becoming a commander in front of his cousin.

"Cousin, you know that I am worried about our current actions."

Windiller didn't care about his cousin anymore. He explained directly. "If the king finds out that we are privately contacting the Allies about the conditions for participating in the war, it will be a disaster. It will be a disaster for our family and the political party."

disaster."

Seeing that his cousin had made his words clear, Bretianu stopped interrupting him. He looked at his cousin and said seriously. "You think the king doesn't know what we are doing. You must know that the royal guard captain Carus

He is especially his eyes and ears, and this captain of the bodyguard receives a lot of government funds every year."

"you mean……"

The cousin said that he thought of a possibility and immediately looked at his cousin with wide eyes.

Prime Minister Bretianu understood what his cousin wanted to ask, but he did not give an answer. There are things that can be done but cannot be said. This is the state of Prime Minister Bretianu now.
