The trial of the red party was a big deal in Romania, but it was all a scandal against it.
Every conscientious Romanian would gnash his teeth at the red party that dared to collude with the Soviet Russian party, reach an agreement with it, and offer Western Ukraine and Eastern Moldavia as a reward, inviting it to help it become the ruler of Romania.
This is the inherent territory of Romania, where the Romanian people have lived since ancient times. These damn traitors dare to do this. It is unforgivable and they should all be hanged. For this reason, many members of the party who were deceived were left in court.
With tears of repentance, they spoke passionately about their experiences of being deceived by the organization.
Therefore, the court gave them a lenient sentence in a punitive attitude. These people who have returned from their lost ways will be subjected to 5-15 years of labor reform, and during this period they will learn the patriotism spirit every day. And for those who do not repent.
People, the court also severely punished them. They will be sentenced to death for treason and deprived of political rights for life. As for the leader of the political party, Karl Morley and others, who have not yet been arrested and brought to justice, the court was also absent from the death sentence.
.
The court trial also made the red party appear in front of everyone, and at the same time deterred many people with ulterior motives. According to subsequent investigations, many Hungarians in the new territories left in a hurry with their families.
When Romania was in an uproar over this incident, negotiations on the navies of various countries in Washington were also coming to an end.
The five naval powers, the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Italy, and Japan, signed the treaty after some scrambling negotiations. The treaty mainly stipulates that the total tonnage of each country's capital ships is: the United States, 525,000 tons (533,400 metric tons); the United Kingdom, 525,000 tons (533,400 metric tons)
Moreover, each country's single ship must not exceed 35,000 tons (35,560 metric tons), and the caliber of the main gun of each country's warships must not exceed 16 inches (406 mm). And the main battleships are more than 10,000 tons, which will also usher in the era of heavy cruisers.
In addition, various countries have also stipulated that for new types of aircraft carriers, a single ship must not exceed 27,000 tons (27,432 metric tons).
At the same time, the total tonnage of aircraft carriers in various countries has also been stipulated. The United States, 135,000 tons (137,160 metric tons); the United Kingdom, 135,000 tons (137,160 metric tons); France, 60,000 tons (60,960 metric tons); Italy, 60,000 tons (60,960 metric tons); Japan, 81,000
tons (82,296 metric tons).
Among them, the warships that have been built beyond the standard have also been fiercely quarreled in the negotiations. The United Kingdom and the United States have requested to dismantle them, while Japan has requested to retain them. The reason is that the Nagato class was donated by elementary school students and they cannot dismantle it.
Faced with Japan's stubborn attitude of refusing to retreat, the final result of negotiations was to retain this class of warships.
However, Japan can only retain two Nagato-class ships (Nagato, Mutsu), and in response, the United States will also retain three Colorado-class ships (Colorado, West Virginia, Maryland), while the United Kingdom can build two
Nelson-class ships (USS Nelson, USS Rodney). These seven most powerful warships are also called the "Big Seven" by naval personnel.
In addition to reaching an agreement on the navy, various countries have also reached an opinion on the division of power in the Far East. The island fortresses occupied by each country in the Pacific region will maintain the status quo and are not allowed to build new naval bases and fortresses. However, the Hawaiian Islands, Australia and New Zealand, etc.
Except land.
In addition, the China issue has also become the core of negotiations among various countries. Regarding Shandong occupied by Japan, various countries have expressed their request for its withdrawal, and some provisions of the Twenty-one Articles signed with the Republic of China must also be abolished. Faced with pressure from various countries, Japanese representatives
Kijuro Shitahara issued a statement, abolishing provisions such as dispatching consultants to China, Sino-Japanese joint establishment of police and arsenal, and railway construction rights.
At the same time, various countries also signed the Nine-Nation Convention. The main contents of the treaty are: the contracting countries respect China's sovereignty and independence and territorial and administrative integrity; maintain the principle of equal industrial and commercial opportunities for all countries throughout China; countries shall not seek special rights in China to the detriment of
The rights of the people of friendly countries shall not be encouraged and actions that are harmful to the security of friendly countries shall not be encouraged; except for China, countries shall not seek or sponsor their own people’s pursuit of patents or superior rights in any designated area of China.
This treaty confirmed the principle of "open door and equal opportunities" implemented by all countries in China. It ended Japan's dominant position in China after the outbreak of World War I and made China once again a target of profit-seeking by the great powers.
With this treaty, all countries are basically quite satisfied. Britain once again confirmed its status as the world's largest navy, although it was shared with others. Japan, on the other hand, relied on this treaty to establish its status in the Western Pacific and ensured its position in the Western Pacific.
Advantages of the Far East (the United States needs to take care of both oceans).
The United States is also very satisfied with this, which makes it the number one navy in the world. Even if it is tied for first, it is still number one. In addition, it has also dismantled the Anglo-Japanese alliance, which is good for the United States.
It couldn't be a better decision. (The Anglo-Japanese Alliance stipulates that military assistance should be provided when attacked by any third country)
Two limited alliances with countries that compete with each other for their own interests are also very irritating to the United States.
When this clause, known as the Naval Holiday in later generations, was sent to Edel, looking at these clauses that were almost the same as those in the previous life, he felt that the time had come for Romania to catch up.
However, the ink on the Washington Treaty has not yet dried, and the Romanian shipbuilding plan still needs to proceed slowly, but related preparations need to be accelerated.
So Edel immediately called the Minister of the Navy, Lieutenant General Lomodan, and the Fleet Commander, Lieutenant General Nestaku.
"Have you read about the Treaty of Washington?"
"Already seen it."
Of course, the two senior Romanian navy officials have seen the event that has the greatest impact on the world. Not only have they seen it, they have also analyzed it and believe that heavy cruisers of less than 10,000 tons in the future will become the focus of attention of all countries in the next ten years or so.
.
"Now that countries have stopped continuing to build capital ships, you need to pay attention to and introduce many talents, equipment and technologies."
Neither of them are fools, and the meaning of Edel's words has been very obvious.
"Your Majesty, please rest assured that the Navy will definitely live up to expectations. However, the Navy's current funding is limited. I wonder if we can think of other ways to meet additional expenditures."
Faced with Lieutenant General Lomodan's complaint, Edel thought for a while and said: "I will let the government provide an unplanned funding, but this is the last funding for the navy this year. You need to make good use of it.
money to introduce enough talents, equipment and technology to the navy."
Faced with Edel's warning, the two immediately promised.
"Your Majesty, please rest assured that the navy will definitely live up to expectations and will fight for the interests of Romania."
After listening to the two people's assurances, Edel waved his hand and ordered: "If you have nothing to do, just go down."
After seeing off the two happy navy executives, Edel looked at the map in front of him and pondered.
Romania faces few threats in the Black Sea. Turkey and Russia only have one or two early dreadnoughts. However, Romania should not be locked up in the Black Sea in the future. Romania must also be present in the Mediterranean and even the adjacent Atlantic and Indian Oceans.
However, these are things for the future, and for now it is better to lay the foundation first.
The arrival of the Navy Holiday not only brought peace to the world, but also gave Romania the opportunity to catch up, all within more than ten years.
