Romanian Eagle

The 622nd chapter marches to Sofia (1)

After the arrival of the two military and political leaders, Edel presented his initial thoughts.

"What do you think of me going to Sofia? Can you increase the direction of public opinion in Bulgaria?"

In the face of Edel's question, the two military and political leaders couldn't help but want to stop. Because the current situation in Bulgaria is too chaotic, if Eder has any accident in Bulgaria, it will be very bad for Romania. Because the power of Romania is currently in the hands of Edel, if this power suddenly falls, although it will make them happy. But it's not a good thing for Romania, it will cause chaos in Romania. Rights will inspire people, does anyone else have the prestige that Edel does to bring everyone together.

So Prime Minister Miharakai spoke up to dissuade him. "Your Majesty, you need to think twice about this matter."

"Yes, Your Majesty, this matter does not necessarily require you to go. It is entirely possible for the Social Democratic Party to initiate an invitation, and let our army open the way first, so as to ensure the safety of Your Majesty."

Admiral Fleet's words were more direct, but Eder waved to the two military and political leaders. "This is my approach after careful consideration. If you want Bulgaria to integrate faster, it's better for me to play."

Seeing Edel's firm attitude, the two looked at each other, and Admiral Freiit said with a firm attitude. "Your Majesty, our military has no objection to your going to Bulgaria. But in order to ensure your safety, we must ensure your safety. This is our military's last request."

And Prime Minister Miharakai on the side also agreed. "Admiral Freiit is right. Your Majesty's safety is very important. You must bring the army to ensure your safety."

Facing the words of the two military and political leaders, Edel couldn't help but say. "If I go to Bulgaria with the army, it will intensify the conflict and it will be a detrimental factor for us to merge Bulgaria."

Hearing the meaning of Edel's words made the two of them anxious. "But Your Majesty, if..."

Seeing the Prime Minister and Chief of General Staff who were quite concerned about his safety, Eder waved his hand and said. "For my own safety, of course, I attach great importance to it. However, it is indeed inappropriate to bring troops to Bulgaria. If it is a Bulgarian national, it is much better."

In the face of Edel's almost explicit words, the two would not understand. I saw the Prime Minister speak first. "I'll prepare the public opinion community for this."

And Admiral Fleet said the same. "I will separate the Bulgarians in the army and prepare them for retirement."

After arranging the response of both the military and the government,

Edel, who had not made a statement before, stood up and made a public statement. He respects the choice of the Bulgarian people, but he is disturbed by the current chaos in Bulgaria. In order to persuade the two parties to avoid the worse development of the tense, he was willing to go to Sofia in person, so that Bulgaria could return to peace.

Eder's remarks immediately attracted praise from Romania. The media praised the king's good deeds one after another, and many people have high expectations for the king's next move.

And the Bulgarians in Romania even suggested that they would protect the benevolent and kind monarch to Bulgaria. For this reason, a military organization "Eder Guard" was organized to defend Eder, and their slogan was to protect the safe arrival of His Majesty the King in Sofia.

Immediately after the establishment of the Eder Guard, a large number of Bulgarians applied to join the organization. In just three days, the two organizations received more than 30,000 applications, more than the Bulgarian army. At the same time, nearly 10,000 Bulgarian officers and soldiers retired from the army, and when they turned around, they joined the guard.

However, unlike Romania, the general public opinion in Europe is that this is a signal that Romania is going to take action against Bulgaria. For this reason, British Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald and French Albert Le Brun both spoke publicly and discouraged Romanian King Eder from going to Bulgaria to avoid further deterioration of the situation.

As for the Soviet Union, the Red Star newspaper published an article titled Please Stop Invasion of Bulgaria, and also published a speech by General Secretary Comrade Steel on the front page. The soviet father used the idea that if Romania continued to invade Bulgaria, the Soviets would not sit idly by, and the great Soviet Union would surely punish the daring Romania. Let it know that European peace cannot be violated by Romanian clowns, for which Romania will also pay the price.

And the attitude of the Soviet Union made many Romanian people feel worried. Opposite the fast-growing red empire, many people expressed concern.

And in response to the Soviet statement, the army, under the order of the Chief of the General Staff, Fleit, has been alerted to prevent possible provocations by the Soviet Union.

However, Eder is not worried at all about possible provocations by the Soviet Union. Which Kremlin master, the most important thing at the moment is his second five-year plan. Due to Romania's interference before, the progress of the plan has been somewhat dragged down, and the current statement is at most expressing dissatisfaction and expressing goodwill to the Bulgarians.

Unlike the Soviet Union, however, Britain and France were much more eager. Its ambassador frequently asked the government to meet Eder, which was very disturbing. Finally, considering that the British and French attitudes could not be ignored too much, Edel met them at the palace.

After meeting Edel, the anxious French ambassador Denorge immediately spoke with concern. "Your Majesty, what your country does will break the peace in Europe."

"Why do you say that, Your Excellency, I'm also thinking of peace in Bulgaria."

Facing the French ambassador, Edel pretended to be confused.

"Your Majesty, we all understand your painstaking efforts, but how much does Your Majesty know about the current situation in Bulgaria?"

In the face of the Romanian king who pretended to be confused, Ambassador De Norge was bound to do his best. Because of the telegrams sent by the government, he tried his best to dissuade the Romanian king from going to Bulgaria, but on the way he exchanged views with the British ambassador Smith. Unless they use military means, it is impossible for them to persuade the monarch.

Having been the ambassador to Romania for many years, he has a deep understanding of Romania. This Edel I is completely in power, and no one can restrict his rights. The decision of this Eder I directly determines the direction of the Romanian government. How to dissuade him now, he does not have enough power to dissuade the king.

Edel, who did not know that Ambassador de Noorge's mind changed quickly, said with great interest. "I have some understanding, but I don't know what advice Ambassador de Norge has."

"I don't dare to give advice, but I just want to analyze the situation in Bulgaria to Your Majesty."

Ambassador Denorge, who was ready to do his best to obey the destiny, continued. "If Your Majesty goes to Bulgaria, there is a danger of a civil war in the country, which is contrary to His Majesty's original intention. Moreover, the turbulent Bulgaria will also threaten the situation in the Balkans, which will give the red elements an opportunity to take advantage, which will further increase The unrest in the region also has great damage to Romania’s interests in the region. I hope that His Majesty should carefully consider the matter of going to Bulgaria, which is definitely an act that endangers the stability of the region.”

Regarding the French ambassador's words, Eder shook his head and said. "His Excellency the Ambassador is too pessimistic. At present, the Bulgarian people are not as bad as you think. And I went with the attitude of making the country peaceful, so it is impossible for the country to break out into a civil war."

Hearing that Edel still planned to go to Bulgaria, the British ambassador Smith couldn't help asking. "As far as I know, the Bulgarians who lived in your country were formed by Bulgarians. Many of the guards who defended His Majesty were soldiers, and these people had served in the military of your country. I wonder if Your Majesty can tell us about this. why."

Facing the questioning tone of the British ambassador, Edel was still not angry, and he categorically denied it. "No way, if there is it must be a Bulgarian ex-serviceman."

And he asked back. "I don't know where Ambassador Smith heard this kind of remarks. I hope His Excellency the Ambassador would better confirm it before speaking."

The final result of this meeting was unhappy. In the face of Eder, who was determined to go to Bulgaria, the two ambassadors had absolutely nothing to do.

After returning to the embassy, ​​they all sent reports to their governments to inform them of the results.

Among them, Ambassador De Norge expressed his judgment at the end of the telegram. "The monarch's determination to go to Sofia will partly change unless the government resorts to military means and sends troops through Greece or Yugoslavia into Bulgaria."

The British ambassador, Smithett, came to the same conclusion.

However, will Britain and France have military frictions between Bulgaria and Romania? This question does not need to be thought about.
