Romanian Eagle

The Foreign Secretary's words made everyone feel that there was a lot of feasibility. Because although Marshal Hindenburg, the chief of the general staff, said the final solution to the Romanian problem, for the Allies themselves, this was also consuming the remaining strength brought by defeating Russia.

As Hindenburg said, this contained about 500,000 military strength of the Allies. If Romania can be pulled into the camp, these forces will bring huge advantages to the Allies whether they are used on the Western Front or Italy, and even bring France or Italy out of the war. This military force wasted in Romania is not worth it.

So what conditions should we give Romania?

William II is still very interested in pulling Romania into the Allies, even though he just wanted to destroy the country with troops. However, the benefits of Romania joining the Allies were too many, and William II had to think a lot about the empire.

Still, Foreign Secretary William Zorff suggested it. Your Majesty, I think the Bessarabia region can be used as a reward for Romania to join the faction.

As soon as the Foreign Minister finished speaking, Prime Minister Olga Mies stood up and asked. We have already mentioned this condition when we started the war, and now this condition should not be able to impress Romania. You must know that Romania's condition for the Allies is that the area east of the Tisza River belongs to it, and we are just a Bisara. It’s hard to get Romania’s heart moving in the Bia region.”

Prime Minister Olg Mises's opinion made all the important ministers in the room nodded secretly. They had all seen the conditions that Romania offered to the Allied Powers, and they were still surprised by Romania's appetite.

And Foreign Minister William Zorff obviously not only prepared these conditions, but he continued to talk about it to the important ministers. I know it's hard to impress Romania with the Bessarabia region alone. What about Odessa and Vinnitsa?

Foreign Minister William Zorff was prepared to take out a map of Ukraine and explain it to everyone. We can win over half of the Vinnitsa and Odessa regions to win over Romania, and I believe these two regions can satisfy Romania enough.

Everyone was amazed at the generosity of Foreign Minister William Zorff. These two regions plus the Bessarabia region are a territory of no less than 100,000 square kilometers. Most of these territories are fertile plains, and if you didn't know that Wilhelm Zorff was the German foreign minister, you would have thought it was a Romanian in disguise.

Although he knew about the Foreign Secretary's proposal, Admiral Scheer couldn't help but ask. Is this too much?

On the Romanian issue, in fact, Scheer does not intend to speak, because it will not use the German fleet. But in the face of the Foreign Minister's words, he couldn't help but speak.

After hearing Scheer's questioning, William Zorff's did not answer immediately, but continued to speak. Not only that, we should also discuss with the Austro-Hungarian government and let them release the wind, intending to let the Transinia region decide whether to stay in Austria-Hungary or not after the war.

The words of Foreign Minister Wilhelm Zorff surprised all the important ministers present, and even Kaiser Wilhelm II was surprised. But soon he reacted and told William Zorff. Are you trying to coerce the Romanian government to make a decision based on public opinion?

Seeing the Emperor's reaction so quickly, William Zorff nodded. This is a condition that the Romanians cannot refuse, and it is impossible for the Entente to give. If Romania still refuses, then we have reason to believe that Romania does not intend to negotiate with us, but only wants to join the Entente. If this is the case, then it is necessary to The plan of His Excellency the Marshal is used.

Seeing the Foreign Minister mentioning himself, Hindenburg who reacted stood up and said. Your Excellency Zorf's words are very reasonable, and we have given the most favorable conditions.

If Romania still pushes, we have to react to them.

To accentuate his tone, Hindenburg said to those present. We can't leave a factor of instability behind us.

Hindenburg's words made everyone present nodded in agreement. A sudden attack from behind without any precautions would hurt too much, and no one knew this.

Prime Minister Olga Mies pointed out a difficulty for the Foreign Secretary. Then we need the cooperation of Austria-Hungary. Their new emperor is not a good talker.

When it comes to the current new emperor Karl of Austria-Hungary, Germany can be very headache. The new emperor is constantly making small moves in the alliance. Shortly after he succeeded to the throne, he dismissed Konrad, the Austrian chief of staff, who had good relations with Germany, and sent him to the Trentino front in Italy as field commander, which made the Austrian army subordinate to the German army. There is a lot of autonomy.

And on the battlefield, the order of the Eastern Front Headquarters is also against yin and yang. Especially in the Kerensky offensive, as the chief of staff of Crown Prince Leopold, Major General Max Hoffmann, who held the actual command of the German army on the eastern front, originally planned to wait for the Russian attack to be exhausted and launch a counterattack. However, the Austro-Hungarian 7th Army did not wait for the order to take the lead, and Max Hoffmann was greatly incensed. Unexpectedly, the Austro-Hungarian army succeeded.

These are not the most painful things for the German government. This year, the new emperor Karl of Austria-Hungary, through his brother-in-law, Prince Sixtus of Parma, held secret peace talks with France. Fortunately, because he refused to cede any territory of the Habsburg family to Italy, the secret peace talks failed. But because he supported French demands on Alsace and Lorraine, Germany was on fire. For this reason, the Kaiser has said on more than one occasion that the Austrians cannot be trusted. ..

Now it is very difficult to get Austria-Hungary to publish the news that it is willing to let Transinia self-determine after the war, but these are the goals that the German government needs to worry about.

Now Ambassador Firalovsky is very troubled, because the information about the Romanian negotiation is missing, and the counselor of the embassy, ​​Andriz Danton, has also been missing for three days, and he wants to die now.

Damn, didn't any of you find Andizzi Danton?

Ambassador Firalovsky vented angrily to other embassy staff. Having said this, he asked again the last guard who saw Andez Danton. Ivan, tell me again what Andriz Danton said to you when he left.

As for Ambassador Firalovsky, who had listened to it eight times and still wanted to listen, the guard named Ivan continued to speak. Your Excellency the Counselor said to me, if someone looks for me, say I'm out.

Facing the guard named Ivan, Ambassador Firalovsky also knew that he should not be blamed. They all blamed themselves for not being vigilant enough about Andy Qi Danton, so he let him steal these secrets.

When Ambassador Firalovsky was troubled by this, the staff he sent out to find Andez Danton also returned one after another, but the news brought back made him despair.

Sorry. Your Excellency Ambassador, I didn't see Mr. Counselor.

We didn't see Mr. Counselor either.

The bad news made Ambassador Firalovsky know that he had to make a quick decision. He turned to a staff member. Get me a car, I'm going to the French embassy.

Half an hour later at the French Embassy, ​​Ambassador Firalovsky told French Ambassador Jean Bard about the information he had lost in negotiations with Romania.

This is terrible, we have to rush to the British embassy and hopefully make amends in time.

So the news of the loss of classified documents from the Russian embassy also came here.
