Bulgarian Empire
Chapter 38, Post-war Influence
One wave of ups and downs and another wave of ups and downs! \u00261t;/p\u003e
The year 1909 that just ended was a year of turbulence, and the international situation underwent earth-shaking changes! \u00261t;/p\u003e
The "Kavala shelling incident" happened at the beginning of the year, and then Bulgaria and the Ottoman Empire broke out in the Near East War, and then under the intervention of the Germans, the Anti-Bulgarian Alliance was established, and the second Balkan War broke out! \u00261t;/p\u003e
There was a coup in the Ottoman Empire, the Albatross in Turkey stepped onto the stage of history, the Anti-Protection League was defeated, and the international situation in the Near East underwent earth-shaking changes. \u00261t;/p\u003e
The relationship between Bulgaria and the Germans deteriorated rapidly, and at the same time, the contradictions between the Allied Powers and the Allies deepened. Affected by the Second Balkan War, the main combatants of Russia and France began to rise, which laid the groundwork for the outbreak of the First World War. Hidden danger! \u00261t;/p\u003e
The British's strategic layout in the European continent was initially completed. After the Second Balkan War, the negotiations between Britain and Germany on limiting the naval arms race also came to an end! \u00261t;/p\u003e
The possibility of the Anglo-German alliance expected by the Germans has been completely shattered. Britain and Germany have officially embarked on confrontation, and the naval arms race has escalated! \u00261t;/p\u003e
In the same year, Britain signed a treaty with the Kingdom of Siam, and the British completed their expansion in the Malay Peninsula. \u00261t;/p\u003e
Oh, and the former Japanese Prime Minister Ito Hirobumi was assassinated in North Korea. Since then, the Japanese government has embarked on a path of no return to the Communist Party, and along with it, the Japanese army launched a coup, but it was suppressed by the Japanese government for the time being! \u00261t;/p\u003e
In the ancient oriental country, the constitutional reform failed, the countdown to the Manchu Qing Dynasty began, and internal conflicts intensified. In the same year, Zhang Zhidong, the last banner of the Westernization Movement, died of illness, announcing the end of an era. \u00261t;/p\u003e
...\u00261t;/p\u003e
The international situation affects the whole body, Ferdinand's butterfly effect has an increasing impact on the world, and history has changed beyond recognition. \u00261t;/p\u003e
In the Royal Palace of Sofia, Ferdinand was teaching his sons the imperial studies, when the Foreign Minister Megeve rushed in. \u00261t;/p\u003e
"Your Majesty, something has happened!"\u00261t;/p\u003e
Seeing Megeve's tense expression, Ferdinand was taken aback for a moment, then came to his senses and asked doubtfully, "What happened?"\u00261t;/p\u003e
Megev tried to calm down and suppressed his emotions as much as possible, and said: "Your Majesty, the Berlin embassy just received news that the German foreign minister announced at today's press conference that Romania, the Ottoman Empire, and the Kingdom of Montenegro officially joined the Without the Allies, the situation in Europe will change drastically!"\u00261t;/p\u003e
Ferdinand's face changed drastically. Although he had expected it, he still didn't expect that he would give birth so soon! \u00261t;/p\u003e
Oh, this is also the butterfly effect of Ferdinand. The Germans want to win over the Kingdom of Montenegro and Romania to form an anti-protection alliance. How could they not make a promise? \u00261t;/p\u003e
Without the endorsement of the allies, even if the two countries are dissatisfied with Bulgaria, they will not come forward! \u00261t;/p\u003e
Now is the time for the Germans to fulfill their promises. After the end of the Second Balkan War, both the Kingdom of Montenegro and Romania are facing serious military pressure, and the Germans are urgently needed to stand up! \u00261t;/p\u003e
The Turkish Youth Party, which had just come into power in the Ottoman Empire, also needed to deliver a satisfactory answer to the people of the country. \u00261t;/p\u003e
Against this background, wouldn't it be chilling if the Germans didn't allow these three younger brothers to join the Allies? \u00261t;/p\u003e
We must know that the world war has not happened yet,
As a big power, everyone still has to face, even if they form an alliance, they must depend on their strength! \u00261t;/p\u003e
Otherwise, if everyone put down their face and directly pulled the younger brother, it would not be the "Three Kingdoms Alliance" and "Four Nations Entente" now. \u00261t;/p\u003e
If the Allied Powers start to recruit younger brothers to join, then the Allied Powers will inevitably follow suit, and then the countries on the continent of Europe will be forced to stand in line, and the scale of the World War will likely be further expanded! \u00261t;/p\u003e
Ferdinand couldn't help worrying about this. Now that Bulgaria is surrounded by the Allies, if the scale of the world war expands further, who can guarantee that the Allies will win? \u00261t;/p\u003e
In the history of parallel time and space, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Spain, Denmark, Norway, Sweden and other countries have all chosen neutrality, and now Ferdinand is not sure what choice they will make. \u00261t;/p\u003e
But one thing is certain, the choices of these countries will have a very significant impact on the international situation, and even affect the trend of the world war! \u00261t;/p\u003e
After thinking for a while, Ferdinand said: "The Ministry of Foreign Affairs communicates with the other three countries as soon as possible to find out what plans they have, so we can adapt to the situation!" \u00261t;/p\u003e
In any case, Bulgaria's geographical location determines that they can only be a couple, and their influence on the European continent is destined to be incomparable with other European powers! \u00261t;/p\u003e
To be honest, Ferdinand didn't want too many countries to join the Allied Powers. This would dilute Bulgaria's right to speak in the alliance, and more importantly, it would affect the distribution of benefits after the war. \u00261t;/p\u003e
After all, the loot is limited, and the more people participate, the less things everyone gets. This is inevitable! \u00261t;/p\u003e
If the direction of the world war does not change significantly, after the end of World War I, Bulgaria has a great possibility to become one of the giants at the Paris Peace Conference, and it will have enough say in the distribution of benefits after the war! \u00261t;/p\u003e
This is completely different from Italy and the United States, which are excluded in parallel time and space! \u00261t;/p\u003e
From the perspective of Britain and France, the Italians belong to the second or fifth generation, not their own people, and their status has always been lower than that of their allies. Their right to speak is inherently low; coupled with their poor performance in the world war, it is really impossible to win everyone Respect! \u00261t;/p\u003e
The Americans were late to join. More importantly, Britain and France saw the strong national power of the Americans and worried that the Americans would come out to snatch their world hegemony. \u00261t;/p\u003e
After Wilson put forward the "Fourteen Principles", this point exposed the strategic goals of the United States after World War I. \u00261t;/p\u003e
That is: the Americans hope to expand their sphere of influence around the world by virtue of their strong economic strength, use national self-determination and arms reduction as a guise, in exchange for the support of world public opinion, weaken rivals such as Britain and France, and then establish an international alliance to intervene in politics Take control of the post-war world situation and participate in the strategy of colonies that carve up the world. \u00261t;/p\u003e
Then the conflict between the two sides could no longer be eased. Britain and France could not tolerate this kind of behavior of the United States to seize power, and immediately put aside the conflict between the two sides, and jointly drove the Americans out of the game! \u00261t;/p\u003e
In this regard, Bulgaria and Britain and France have common interests! Ferdinand also hoped to incorporate the colonies into the mainland? How could the colonial system collapse so early? \u00261t;/p\u003e
After the war, jointly suppressing the United States and locking up the nascent Soviet Union are the interests of promoting the continued alliance among the three countries! \u00261t;/p\u003e
Oh, the prerequisite is that the situation in the continent of Europe does not change significantly. Britain and France were severely damaged by the Germans, and it is difficult to maintain their world hegemony; but they cannot be paralyzed like World War II and give up world hegemony directly! \u00261t;/p\u003e
In this context, they need Bulgaria as an ally! In the distribution of benefits after the war, Bulgaria will be given a share! \u00261t;/p\u003e
Therefore, for Ferdinand, the fewer variables the better, the expansion of the scope of the world war is not in the interests of Bulgaria. \u00261t;/p\u003e
...\u00261t;/p\u003e
Facts have proved that if you want to play diplomacy, the British are the kings of this era! When Ferdinand was worried that the scope of the future world war would expand, the London government had come up with a practical plan! \u00261t;/p\u003e
There are quite a few countries on the continent of Europe that are leaning towards the Germans. If the two sides open up their chariots and directly force countries to stand in line, most of the Allies will fall into a disadvantage. \u00261t;/p\u003e
No way, although the strength of the Allied Powers is strong, their ability to attract hatred is directly proportional to their strength! \u00261t;/p\u003e
On this point, there is no way. The old empire occupies a large amount of interests, and naturally it is accompanied by a large number of enemies. Interests are the root of conflicts! \u00261t;/p\u003e
But it doesn't matter, there is a third option - neutral! \u00261t;/p\u003e
After all, in this era, the influence of Britain and France is unparalleled. Among the European countries, there are those who are inclined to the Allies, and naturally there are also those who are inclined to the Allies. Now the power of the Allies is still dominant. \u00261t;/p\u003e
Against this background, under this wave of operations by John Bull, the time for countries to stand in line has been greatly delayed. \u00261t;/p\u003e
Now that the Allied Powers are restraining them, the Germans can only lure and woo other countries. As for coercion? Is William II still worried that people will directly take refuge in the Allied Powers? \u00261t;/p\u003e
Oh, maybe the Germans realized this, or the German government was also confused. In short, after bringing Montenegro, Romania and the Ottoman Empire on board, they also temporarily stopped their actions. \u00261t;/p\u003e
Seeing this, Ferdinand breathed a sigh of relief. Anyway, the European continent finally regained its calm temporarily! \u00261t;/p\u003e
As for how long this calm can be maintained, Ferdinand has no expectations at all. Anyway, in the next few years, the international situation is bound to change. \u00261t;/p\u003e
