Chapter 139

After receiving the telegram, Ambassador Ferralovsky personally delivered it to Serbian Prime Minister Protic in the evening.

"Ambassador Feralowski, thank you very much for your help. We in Serbia will keep this friendship in mind."

Prime Minister Protic, who took a look at the telegram first, said his words of gratitude to Ambassador Feralowski. He has reasons to do so. The Russian ambassador will join the negotiation between Serbia and Romania. Of course, he will be very polite. This time also Ambassador Feralowski's luck was overwhelming. Serbia had to negotiate urgently. The country had no choice but to take him on duty, so the lucky apple fell on him.

Ambassador Feralowski also smiled and said to Prime Minister Protic. "Then Prime Minister, I will endorse the results of this negotiation on behalf of the Russian government in the next negotiations."

"Thanks to the ambassador."

After the two talked for a while, Ambassador Feralowski planned to leave. Before leaving, he asked about the negotiation time.

"So when will the negotiation begin?"

"The morning after tomorrow, start in this hotel conference room."

Prime Minister Protic was finally relieved after sending off Ambassador Feralowski. In the past two days, he did not stay in the hotel all the time. Instead, he went around in Bucharest, the Romanian capital, to learn about local price levels, wages, living pressures, etc. Generally speaking, Romanians are enjoying the economy. The benefits of development. Although there are also shortcomings, for example, there are more drunks on the street, these people drunk drunk and fell asleep in a corner. The road facilities are relatively narrow, and vehicles sometimes get congested together. From another aspect, it also reflects the increasing number of wealthy people in Romania.

Not to mention that Romania's population reached 8 million (the data at the end of 1912 includes the foreign population), which is twice Serbia's 3.34 million, which is more than the two countries combined. Prime Minister Protic is very envious in his heart. It is worthy of being a plain area, and it can be the second largest food exporter in Europe to feed the domestic population.

So after two days of observation, the city of Bucharest is much more prosperous than Belgrade. And Romania is not only prosperous in its capital. It is said that the coastal port city of Constanta is developing the same as this Romanian capital, but Prime Minister Protic has no time to look at it now. He has to prepare for the next negotiation.

On the day when the negotiations were restarted, Prime Minister Bretianu and Foreign Minister Barnosk were already waiting in the conference room. Yesterday Prime Minister Protic sent someone to inform them that the Russian side would send someone to participate in the negotiation. Very excited. You must know that after Crown Prince Edel stated Romania's conditions, they did not think that Russia would agree. After all, the friendship between Bulgaria and Russia can be seen by everyone. Although there is a little conflict now, they will not just give up Bulgaria. . Now they are impressed by the extraordinary vision of the crown prince.

After receiving the news, Edel secretly fluke for his speculation. If it weren't for the memory of later generations, he would not dare to offer such a condition. Now it seems that Russia has agreed to Romania's condition, which will be much easier. As long as Russia agrees to the Allied Powers, it will not oppose it, and Germany and Austria cannot now fully support Bulgaria, which gives Romania a chance.

Prime Minister Bretianu and Foreign Minister Barnosk, after seeing Prime Minister Protic and Ambassador Feralowski walk in, knew that the Russian representative was the Russian ambassador to Romania.

At the beginning of the negotiation, Foreign Minister Barnoske asked with a smile on his face. "Your Excellency Prime Minister Protic, I wonder how the Serbian side is considering our conditions this time?"

"I'm here now, it can explain the problem." Prime Minister Protic also relaxed and said jokingly.

Anyway, don't want Serbia to pay for its own interests. You only need to take out Bulgaria's territory to allow Romania to join the league. Of course, he will relax.

After hearing the joking words of the Serbian Prime Minister, Prime Minister Bretianu did not say so gently this time. "Then I'm confirming. Is the Serbian government confirming our ownership of the Bulgarian territory from the small town of Svishtov on the Danube river along the small town of Preslav to the Black Sea?"

Hearing the Romanian Prime Minister's undisguised and naked words, Prime Minister Protic said very seriously. "We agree with Romania's sovereignty over the aforementioned areas, and we will confirm this in future peace negotiations with Bulgaria."

After listening to Prime Minister Protic's words, Bretianu looked at the Russian ambassador Ferralovsky. The ambassador knew that he needed to speak on behalf of the Russian government at this time, and agreed. "Our Russian government will also agree with this condition of your country, and will support your request in future peace negotiations."

After hearing that they both agreed to Romania's terms of joining the EU, Prime Minister Bretianu spoke to the two of them. "Then the two representatives of Russia and Serbia agree to our conditions, then we can start negotiations on the issue of troop dispatch."

When Prime Minister Protic heard that it was possible to start negotiations on the dispatch of troops, he immediately stated Serbia's terms. "Your Excellency, I hope that Romania will declare war on Bulgaria as soon as the war begins, and send an army of no less than 400,000 troops to attack Bulgaria."

After hearing Prime Minister Protic's statement of Savivia's conditions, Prime Minister Bretianu reduced him one by one. "Prime Minister Protic, you don't know the Romanian army. We are now able to make the commitment of sending more than 200,000 troops. Regarding the time of Romania's participation in the war, we promise that it will not be later than your commitment five days after the declaration of war."

After hearing Prime Minister Bretianu's Romanian terms, Prime Minister Protic would certainly not be satisfied. He continued. "Prime Minister Bretianu, it is difficult for everyone to be satisfied with your Romanian conditions. You must know that even our Serbian army can mobilize 300,000 troops. And as an alliance, it is something that should be done to declare war as soon as possible."

After hearing that Prime Minister Protic was dissatisfied, Prime Minister Bretianu continued to explain, "We can only do four days for the declaration of war. After all, we also need to prepare. As for the issue of the dispatch of troops, please rest assured. We can guarantee that this time Romania's 200,000 troops will be enough to bring Bulgaria to its knees."

Then the two prime ministers began to negotiate repeatedly on the time for the declaration of war and the issue of Romania's dispatch of troops, and the negotiations were only reached towards the evening of the day. Romania's obligation in this Cerro Secret Treaty is that when a war breaks out between Serbia and Bulgaria ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ Romania needs to declare a state of war against Bulgaria within four days. And Romania will send no less than 10,000 troops to attack Bulgaria within three days after the declaration of war.

As a condition for Romania to send troops, Serbia will support its sovereignty over Bulgaria, which extends from the small town of Svistov on the Danube River to the small town of Preslav to the Black Sea, which is about 22,000 square kilometers. The Russian government will endorse this, and will use its influence to get Britain and France to agree to Romania's request. This alliance treaty also stipulates that countries cannot negotiate with Bulgaria individually.

After the negotiations were completed, Protic returned to Serbia by train for the first time in the evening, because news came from the country that the Bulgarian army showed signs of being ready to move.

On the third day, Greece and Montenegro also joined the alliance. This time Serbia took the lead in the middle. Of course, facing Romania's entry into the two countries, they are satisfied, and they don't need to pay anything by themselves. Who can refuse the benefits of vain.

So far, Romania, Serbia, Greece, and Montenegro have formally established the secret anti-Bulgarian alliance.
