Bulgarian Empire

Chapter 134: Russian Threat Theory

Admiral Dante-Christoph is now looking at the great plain of the Danube River, and the domestic meaning is obvious, that is, to drive a nail here to contain the Kingdom of Hungary.

But when it comes to actual operation, it is not so easy. The amount of work involved in allocating land to millions of Romanians is frightening.

And there is not much time left for him, at least it must be completed before the end of the world war, otherwise it will be difficult to explain later.

Of course, Dante Christoph is not sure whether this plain belongs to the Kingdom of Hungary after the war!

After all, Mao Xiong's appetite has always been very good. In addition, they pushed Bulgaria to the front and gave up Romania. It is not impossible to use Hungary as compensation in the future.

But it doesn't matter, anyway, the wealthy central Danube plain in the future will become a poor mountain village.

A land with many people will restrict the development of the local economy, unless the local government can develop industries locally and absorb affluent labor force. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

However, this is all in the future. After getting the land they dreamed of, the Romanians happily started spring plowing. Although it was a little less, didn’t the Bulgarian government promise permanent tax exemption?

As long as they don't pay taxes, the output of these lands is still enough for them to live, and they will even live better than before in China!

This does not deceive them, the Bulgarian government does not collect their taxes, but other governments are hard to say.

Gendarmerie Commander Lauren Weir said with a wry smile: Your Excellency, we have handled 3,223 civil disputes this month, and more than 90% of them were between Romanians and local aborigines. Conflict between the two!

There is no way, the sudden influx of so many immigrants will naturally rob the locals of their livelihoods, and conflicts between the two sides are inevitable. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

But now the army is almost becoming a local government. It needs to allocate land and housing to these immigrants, maintain local law and order, and deal with local civil disputes...

In line with the principle of professionalism, the work of mediating civil disputes naturally falls to the gendarmerie, which are all engaged in legal work. Although the army is different from the local government, at least it has a little edge, so it can be used to make do .

Anyway, the Bulgarian army won't stay here for long, so it's enough to deal with the past first, and the future problems will depend on which unlucky government will take over.

But in-Christoph sighed and said: I see, you can do what you want, as long as there is no big trouble, just let them go!

Lauren Weir said unwillingly: Your Excellency, Commander, do we really want to give up here? The Danube Plain is so rich, so it is so cheap for the Romanians? \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Dante-Christoff said coldly: What is cheap? There is no free lunch in the world. Originally, Romania was the second largest ethnic group in the Kingdom of Hungary. Now we have added so many people to them. The future Kingdom of Hungary Look at the excitement!

If they are unlucky and let the bear annex the Kingdom of Hungary, they will be even worse. There are only a few million people, and they are not qualified to negotiate terms with the tsarist government!

In this day and age, everyone holds grudges very much, and the only thing they can do is to pay with blood. The best way to resolve their hatred is to find a new enemy for them.

This is what Ferdinand learned from the British. John Bull was able to traverse the world with enemies everywhere because they were good at provoking conflicts between countries.

Just like the current Romanians, before immigrating to the Danube Plain, their enemies were Bulgarians and Russians, but after they moved here, their biggest enemies were the local aborigines. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

without him,

Conflict of interests Well, for their own interests, they have to conflict with local life, and this contradiction cannot be resolved, because both parties must survive!

In this case, can they still care about Bulgaria, the great enemy of the country? Certainly someone will remember, but more people still have to choose to face reality!

If someone studies Ferdinand's national policy, they will find that Bulgaria has been avoiding death feuds with big powers, and the countries that have already forged blood feuds have all been finished in this world war.

Dante Christophe is naturally clear about this strategy, and he is even one of the people responsible for its implementation.

Where are the Balkan countries in the past?

Except for Bulgaria, the Greeks who knew the current affairs moved directly to Africa, while Serbia, Montenegro, and Romania were all wiped out successively. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Even the Ottoman Empire, which has always been Bulgaria's archenemy, is now doomed, and with their notorious international reputation, they will not find direct supporters for the restoration of the country in the future.

It has been blackmailed by European countries for hundreds of years, and now Bulgaria wants to destroy the Ottoman Empire, which is completely expected by everyone!

In history, they still had Kemal cheating, defeated the Greeks, and took advantage of the contradictions among the great powers to unify the country, but it is definitely impossible now.

Historically, after the end of World War I, they still retained a certain amount of strength and could bargain with the Allied Powers. Even so, they all hurt their internal organs just by hitting Greece, which is obviously impossible this time.

If the Ottoman government still existed after the world war, wouldn't Ferdinand be in vain? If it weren't for the convenience of post-war governance, the Ottoman Empire would be over by now! \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Laurenwell continued to ask: Your Excellency, Commander, I still don't understand. With our current strength, even if we annex the entire Kingdom of Hungary, it is very likely to succeed. Why did we stop at the most critical moment?

Not only Laurenwell can't figure out this problem, but many people in the Bulgarian army and government can't figure out why they don't continue to expand to the Kingdom of Hungary. Even if they can't eat all of it, it's always possible to carve up with the bears!

Now in Eastern Europe, as long as Bulgaria and Russia reach an agreement, the goal can be achieved. The influence of Britain and France in this region has dropped to the lowest point in history.

In fact, Dante-Christoph is still a staunch European faction. He himself advocates taking advantage of the opportunity of the world war to carve up the Austro-Hungarian Empire with the Russians. Anyway, even if Britain and France want to oppose them, there is nothing they can do.

\u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

However, Dante-Kristov's idea was vetoed by Ferdinand as soon as it was put forward, and he threw out the Russian threat theory to dispel his unrealistic illusions.

After thinking about it, Dante Christoph decided to use the Russian threat theory to explain this question. After all, this is the most acceptable answer.

If we carve up the Austro-Hungarian Empire with the Russians, what will happen, have you considered?

The current Russian Empire is limited by industry, and their war potential cannot be fully utilized. If we allow the Russians to obtain the industries of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and some of the industries of the Germans, the day when they dominate the European continent will not be far away. up!

What impact do you think the emergence of a dominant player in continental Europe will have on the future exhibitions in Bulgaria?

From a geopolitical point of view, we can tolerate the success of the French as the overlord of the European continent, because their population is limited and it is impossible to unify the European continent. And they are too far away from us, there is no conflict of core interests between the two parties! \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

We can also tolerate the British becoming the overlord of Europe. Their core interests are in the ocean, and they will not conflict with our core interests on the mainland!

But the Russians can't, even though they have always been our best allies, but in the face of national interests, everyone has no choice!

Lauren Well's expression changed drastically, and he fell into deep thought. With the rise of Bulgaria, now everyone is unwilling to continue to be the little brother of the Russians, especially after the end of the Eastern Front Battle last year, let everyone see clearly the reality of the Russian Empire.

In the past, there were pro-Russian factions clamoring for the two countries to unite to establish a Slavic empire and then dominate the world together, but now it has disappeared.

Who told the Russians to be bad in this world war? Many people even suspect that the military strength of the Russians is not as good as that of Bulgaria. After all, the Bulgarian army is also in Europe and Asia. It has never been defeated on the battlefield, which is enough to prove the strength of Bulgaria! \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

In this case, even the pro-Russian faction has changed its mind and is ready to come out and become the boss.

In this context, it is natural to limit the development of the Russian Empire.

The more he thinks about Laurenville, the more worried he becomes. This means that the day when Bulgaria and Russia will part ways is not far away, but he can't stop it from happening, and no one can make concessions in front of national interests.

Your Excellency, Commander, I understand that in the long-term interests, we must keep the Austro-Hungarian Empire as much as possible, right?

Dante-Christopher really wants to ask, what do you understand, I haven't finished my words yet?

However, he still didn’t say it out, instead he said cooperatively: “That’s right, a powerful Austro-Hungarian Empire can increase the difficulty for the Russians to expand and buy us time to open the Asia Minor peninsula!

And restricting the expansion of the Russian Empire is not our family's business. Britain and France are the vanguards. We just beat the drums on the sidelines!

This is also inevitable. The Russian threat theory has always been circulating in the European continent. Even after the outbreak of the world war, some people still raise it from time to time.

If this has nothing to do with John Bull, it would be a strange thing. The hatred between Britain and Russia is much smaller than that of Germany and France. Although most of them were provoked by the British, they were the Russians who controlled the Baltic Sea after the war. One of the main challengers for world supremacy!

The French wanted to dominate the European continent, but unfortunately Russia once again became a stumbling block. As soon as the World War ended, the French-Russian alliance would part ways.

This is also one of the main reasons why Bulgaria withdrew from this European hegemony. The opponent is too strong, and Bulgaria can't stand it with its background.

After thinking that he had figured it all out, Laurenwell felt much better, because he saw new opportunities. If Britain, France and Russia fought endlessly for the hegemony of the European continent after the war, then Bulgaria's opportunity would come. what?

Of course, Dante Christophe didn't know what he was thinking, otherwise he would definitely give him an ideological education class to wake him up!
