Bulgarian Empire

The genius remembers the address of this site in a second: (Apex Chinese), the fastest update! No advertisements!? As early as after the London Conference in 1927, the League of Nations established the Preparatory Committee for the Disarmament Conference. This time it is not only for the navy, but also for the Army and Air Force included.

The reason is very simple. The British found that their army's combat effectiveness had fallen behind the times, so they wanted to limit the development of the armies of European countries through the treaty situation.

At the end of 1927 and the beginning of 1928, the fighting in Southeast Asia made the British feel even more terrified. The combat effectiveness shown by the Bulgarian army made them worry about the birth of a second Germany.

At this time, there is no French to help them as human shields. No matter how they provoke the geopolitical relationship, it is impossible for the two countries to fight against each other.

It is impossible for Ferdinand to send millions of troops to attack, and it is even more impossible for the French government to send troops to attack. How many countries are there between the two sides?

As long as Bulgaria does not develop into the interior of Europe, it will not have a core interest conflict with the French, and the struggle for world hegemony has long since had nothing to do with them.

Unknowingly, the London government suddenly found that they were isolated again, and they were isolated because of their interests!

This is troublesome, unlike the last time, when the world was confronted by two major groups, and everyone was scrambling to win over the self-isolated British.

Now everyone isolates the British because of their interests. The main contradiction in the world now is the contradiction between the British and the major powers.

This made Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin uncomfortable. If he wanted to sow discord, create conflicts, and reap the benefits of the fisherman, wouldn't it work?

Whether it is France, Bulgaria, or Japan in the Far East, their biggest enemy is the British Empire, and even the second enemy cannot be found.

The spheres of strength between the several major powers are perfectly separated by the British Empire. If they want to break out of conflict, they must first let their spheres of influence border.

The Philippine Islands were originally thrown out as bait, but Ferdinand did not take the bait because the interests were not large enough, and the conflict between the two countries naturally did not break out.

Even the British' attempt to provoke conflicts between the two countries and the Japanese was only half successful, and the two countries did not carry out a major expansion in the Far East at all.

After the forces of the two countries entered the Philippine Islands, conflicts with the Japanese broke out and blocked the way for the Japanese to go south. Unfortunately, this conflict does not need to make them die.

The French were unable to expand in the Far East because of their lack of strength, and Bulgaria was Ferdinand who had no interest in the Far East.

The Japanese government is indeed ambitious, but they know the current affairs. When they saw the three big men blocking the door, they immediately gave up. Even the navy rarely went to the Nanyang region.

Then the British confronted the confused Japanese. Because of the problems in Southeast Asia, the biggest enemy in the hearts of the British is now Japan.

But Stanley Baldwin knows that the most powerful enemy cannot be ignored because of Japan's problems?

If you can't be hard, then let's be soft. Using the arms limitation treaty and reducing the military power of all countries at the same time is the best plan given by the staff, and it is also the only feasible plan!

London

At the Parliamentary Headquarters of the League of Nations, representatives of various countries are arguing endlessly about disarmament, and almost all major powers have given different proposals.

The Disarmament Committee is divided into two subcommittees: the Military Subcommittee and the Economic Subcommittee.

There are currently five main disarmament programs:

1. The disarmament plan proposed by the French focuses on the review of the peacetime armaments and wartime armaments of various countries, and requires redefining the nature of various armaments and the comparison of the military strength of various countries.

2. The disarmament plan proposed by the Spaniards is aimed at maintaining the balance of military forces of various countries and remains unchanged.

3. The disarmament plan proposed by Bulgaria is based on the actual needs of each country, while taking into account the balance of military power of each country before disarmament.

4. The disarmament plan proposed by the Japanese,

It aims to balance the military power among the continents, comprehensively assess combat effectiveness, actual needs and other factors for disarmament.

5. The disarmament plan proposed by the British aims to balance the strength of the armies of the major powers and reduce the armaments of various countries as much as possible.

There is no doubt that the disarmament plans of various countries are based on their own interests. For example, Spain's disarmament plan is purely for its own national security.

The purpose of the British disarmament plan is to narrow the gap in army strength between the two countries. After all, we also have many colonies bordering on it, so as to avoid losses in case of a tie one day.

Bulgaria's disarmament plan is to make peace, and the main purpose is to delay time.

After all, the plan given by Ferdinand is equivalent to saying that everyone determines the size of the army according to their own needs, but the needs of countries vary in size? Then added a balance of arms!

For example, if your neighbor's military requirement is 300,000, then he can keep 300,000, while your requirement is only 200,000, but you can also maintain 300,000 troops because of the balance of arms.

This is almost telling the British that it is not that we are too strong, but that you are too weak. If you expand the army to one or two million, everyone's military strength will be almost balanced.

The disarmament plan proposed by the Japanese government is the same as if there is nothing, it is completely impossible. How to balance the military power in Europe and Asia?

Think of Bulgaria as an Asian country?

So what about the balance of military power with Oceania? Let all the people in Australia and New Zealand be soldiers, and let the British be responsible for making up for what is not enough?

The purpose is similar to that of Bulgaria, which is to make trouble and prevent this disarmament conference from ending smoothly.

Except for some small foreign countries, the major powers have no intention of disarming. After all, the two countries of Baofa and France are land powers. How could they give up the army?

If according to the British proposal, France can only retain 120,000 troops, and Bulgaria can only retain 140,000 troops, isn't that self-defeating martial arts?

No matter what happens to other countries, it is impossible for Ferdinand to agree. This is a matter of principle, and there is no possibility of any compromise.

The conditions of the parties were too different, and the Conference on Disarmament was deadlocked at the very beginning.

Obviously the army cannot be cut down, so we can only focus on the air force and navy. The problem of the air force is not easy to solve. The key is the definition problem.

Now the air forces of various countries are diverse. The navy has naval aviation, and the army has army aviation. Do these people count?

If it is not counted, countries change their names and avoid it. Even if they sign a disarmament treaty, it is just a dead letter in the end.

If it is all counted, Bulgaria will be fried. Now the planes in the Bulgarian army have become ordinary means of transportation like cars, and the amount of equipment is appalling.

How should this disarmament be cut? Are they not allowed to use it?

Fighter planes, transport planes, and bombers of this era can often be mixed with civilian aircraft, but there is a gap in performance. In fact, the use of civilian aircraft as bombers only needs to be modified.

Instead, it is the navy that is the best to negotiate. The countries have already determined the ratio before, and a large number of warships have also been abolished.

At this time, there is not much that can be reduced. The three countries of Baofa and Japan unanimously aimed at the British and demanded that the naval tonnage ratio of each country be readjusted.

Naturally, it was impossible for John Bull to agree. It was originally intended to target the disarmament conference of the three countries, but he did not expect to be turned into an army now.

The military team couldn't go on, and the economic team next door was also struggling.

The debt problem of the former Russian Empire, now the governments of the nine countries are already arguing,

West Russia is fighting alone this time, with one enemy and eight, and soon fell into a disadvantage.

But this is the League of Nations, and whoever is eloquent or has a strong ability to quarrel will not be able to win the final victory.

Under the unanimous request of many creditors, none of the governments of the nine countries can run away from this debt. According to international practice, the governments of the nine countries jointly undertake the debt repayment obligation and pay joint and several liabilities for this debt.

The arm cannot hold back the thigh, and the League of Nations has made a decision, whether they want to or not, they must accept it. During this period, the governments of the nine countries did not have the courage to fight against the League of Nations alone.

Since the money has to be repaid, it is better to argue about the specific amount. The representative of West Russia proposed that the nine countries should share the debt equally, but the other eight countries have always refused.

No one thinks this proposal is reliable. If this huge debt is shared equally, what will the small countries do?

Like the three Baltic countries, Finland, and Belarus, even if these five countries sell all of them, they still can't afford to pay off one-ninth of their debts?

You must know that the loans owed by the Russian Empire to banks alone amount to more than two billion pounds, as well as the bonds issued by the private sector. All of these add up, and the debts that need to be dealt with this time are as high as 3.58 billion pounds.

Even if they wanted to renege on their debts, no one dared to bring it up at the League of Nations meeting, and everyone could only endure it.

Please wait a moment, before dealing with these debts, I suggest to sort out the time of these loans first, and then determine whether there is a legal relationship with us.

If it was the debts owed by the government before the world wars, these are legal debts, and we can consider taking part of them.

Since the outbreak of the world war, these moneys are all owed by the tsarist government for their own ambitions and launching wars, and we are not responsible for them! The representative of the Soviet Union Georgy Vasilyevich Chicherin said

There is no doubt that most of the huge debts of the Russian Empire were owed after the outbreak of the world war, and a large part of it was owed during the civil war.

Due to Ferdinand's butterfly effect, the Russians of this plane performed much better in the World War, and also produced much more weapons and ammunition, and the war expenditure far exceeded history.

These all cost money, and Georgy Vasilyevich Chicherin does not intend to admit this debt, mainly because there is too much money.

Impossible! The Russian Empire is over. As their legal heirs, you must bear all the debts. This is your obligation! British Foreign Secretary Attlee said directly

However, these debts were all owed by the dictatorial tsarist government for its own sake. They were against the wishes of the general public. The public did not think that they paid for his willfulness! Georgy Vasilyevich Tsichche Lin argues

Rights and obligations are equal. Since you have inherited the legacy of the Russian Empire, you will naturally inherit their debts. If you refuse to fulfill your debts, the legitimacy of your government will also disappear! French Foreign Minister Gess directly threatened

But in fact, we became independent as early as 1917. As an independent country, we have no obligation to pay for the dictatorship of the Western Russian Empire! Georgy Vasilyevich Chicherin retreated said

Mr. Vasilyevich, legally you became independent in 1927, and you must bear all the debts before that!

This is the most basic international law. If you are not willing to take on this debt, you can give up your independence and let a new responsible government take it! Megev said coldly.

If you want to default, stop dreaming, and don't look at who the creditors are!

There is no doubt that the governments of various countries are much weaker than everyone imagined. Georgi Vasilyevich Chicherin was unable to support himself, and he was also suffocated when he was threatened one after another.

If it weren't for the fact that the strength of the Soviet Union is too weak now, the Japanese are eyeing them, and they still need the protection of the League of Nations, he would have exploded long ago.

Lose power and humiliate the country? This is not enough, debt repayment is justified, we did not colonize the Russian Empire, and the money was lent to their only legal government.

At the time of independence, everyone regarded themselves as the heirs of the Russian Empire and was recognized by the League of Nations. You can't just take the benefits without paying the price, right?

But indulging a dictator in this way, wantonly destroying world peace, and oppressing the Russian people, is this what the League of Nations does? Georgy Vasilyevich Chicherin said unwillingly

Please pay attention to your words. If it weren't for you traitors, how could the Russian Empire have come to where it is today? How could the Tsarist government owe so much debt?

I am afraid that the war reparations alone are enough to pay off our previous debts, but now they are going against the grain, for the sake of the people?

If it was really for the people, would you collude with the Germans? Will draw the Germans to St. Petersburg? All of this today was caused by you, do you still want to evade responsibility? Sassonov, the representative of the Western Russian Empire, said with a sneer.

In any case, the Russian Empire was a member of the Allies, and the Russian capitalists did collude with the Allies to betray the Tsarist government, which was equivalent to standing on the opposite side of the Allies.

During the uprising, the revolutionaries got mixed up with the capitalists. If you want to say that they have nothing to do with you, you can't even tell?

Although Vasilyevich was very angry, he was very wise not to quarrel with him on this issue. Those who can make decisions here happen to be members of the Allied Powers.

Once it arouses their disgust and treats them as the remnants of the allies, wouldn't that be miserable?

Okay, let's stop here. All the debts of the Russian Empire must be inherited by your nine countries. Let's discuss the distribution plan now!

Any behavior that wants to evade debts will be severely punished by the League of Nations. Such a rogue government is not qualified to appear on the international stage! Attlee interrupted forcefully.

The spirit of this kind of person is lifted, and the critical moment has come. If you say one thousand and ten thousand, isn't it because you want to bear less debt for yourself and let the enemy bear more debt!

We propose to allocate the debts that the governments of various countries should bear based on the size of their territories? Sassonov suggested with a sneer

This is impossible. As the chief culprit, the Tsarist government should bear most of the responsibility, at least 95% of the debt, and the rest will be shared by our countries! Vasilyevich immediately objected.

How can it be allocated according to the territory area? This nine-country equalized debt is even worse. If it is distributed in this way, the new Soviet government will be forced to death by debt.

In Siberia now, farming and mining are okay, and there is nothing else. There is only such a small output, and it is still restricted by poor transportation, so it is difficult to transport it out. How can they have money to pay off their debts?
