Romanian Eagle

Preparations for war in Romania also began as soon as possible after the meeting chaired by Eder. Large quantities of military material began to be disguised for other purposes and shipped to various military points.

In Targuzhiu, the first station of the Roo Railway into Romania, two staff members in the dispatching room of the station were chatting.

"Hi, Somme. You're saying there's too much cargo these days. Our station has been running for several days in a row."

"Yes, our station warehouse is almost full, but I heard that the goods shipped this time are more valuable."

"I know that you have a connection with Taurus, so don't mess with the idea of ​​these goods. It's not easy to see the people guarding the goods. It's very likely that they are all veterans."

After someone's mind was broken, he was speechless, but he listened to his colleague's words, which saved him from a disaster.

At the same time in Paris, after three days of secret travel, Barnosque, the foreign minister as plenipotentiary, was also about to arrive in Paris. In this secret trip to Paris to negotiate, Barnosk did not bring any extra candidates, except for a few elite personnel from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the representative of the military, Major General Dotov. The major general's main task is also to coordinate the Allied forces in Greece and attack Bulgaria.

The road trip did not make the foreign minister in his fifties feel too tired. He was chatting with Major General Dotov about the customs and customs he saw along the way.

"I still remember the experience of studying in France, when France was not so desolate, and I didn't see many men along the way."

"Yes, France has lost too much in this war, even if it costs too much to win."

Feeling a little out of place to talk about his losses on French soil, Major General Dotov decided to change the subject. "French men are on the battlefield, but French women suffer. According to the personal experience of our military observation team, a few cans and a bag of flour in France can make French women show their enthusiasm. If they are in the war zone, That bag of flour can be omitted."

Just then a negotiator knocked on the door and came in to speak. "Your Excellency, Paris is here."

So the two got off the train. As the capital of France, Paris can be regarded as its largest railway transportation hub. Materials from all over the country can arrive here along the railway, which has also become the largest logistics base of the French army. The negotiating group from Romania felt this in a short period of time. Within ten minutes after they got off the train and walked out of the station, three reinforcements troop trains singing the Marseillaise crossed the platform and headed for the front line, and there were also two wounded vehicles dripping with blood and full of mourning. Drive behind.

In just over ten minutes, the Romanian group, who was still in peace, immediately felt the cruelty of the war. At the same time, they also noticed that the staff up and down the station turned a blind eye to this kind of scene. This made the negotiators feel that the hearts of the French people are strong.

One more thing, this time the Romanian negotiator was greeted by French Foreign Minister Jean Pichon, which also represented the importance attached by the Entente countries to Romania's ability to join at this time. After observing all the way, Barnoske, the Romanian foreign minister, has a deep understanding. Whether it is from the reception level or the itinerary, it is to allow their group to arrive in Paris faster and more comfortably. This departure from Marseille It can be seen that the train has temporarily added luxury carriages in order to wait for them to stop for two hours.

Although France has prepared so much for the Romanian negotiating delegation,

However, Barnoske, who was the plenipotentiary representative during the negotiations, would not be grateful for this and give up his interests, but he was not polite at all when he should compete.

"Gentlemen, the Kalash area has always been a gathering place for our Romanian people, and there are not many Serbs in the area, and no matter what aspect it is, it is inconsistent with the previous negotiation situation. I hope you can understand. The situation on the ground raises questions.”

Barnosque, the plenipotentiary, bragged in the face of French Prime Minister Clemenceau, Foreign Minister Jean Pichon, Army Secretary Paul Penrevel, and British Foreign Secretary Balfour, because the negotiations were out of the beginning. What a moth. I don't know why, but the British Foreign Secretary, Balfour, repented of the conditions he had promised as soon as he came up.

He questioned the Austro-Hungarian Kalash region that should belong to Romania next to Serbia. On the grounds that the local Serbs occupy the majority, he proposed that the region should undergo national self-government after the war, which was immediately recognized as the plenipotentiary. Grams rejected. He didn't care at all whether the Serbs were the majority in the area. Barnoske insisted that the local Serbs were a minority. This was a mistake by the British Foreign Secretary, showing a completely unreasonable attitude.

Seeing this situation, the other French country in the negotiation is a little bit restless. For the question of the Kalash region suddenly raised by the United Kingdom, France has no preparations at all, but now they can only make a deal first. And this task can only fall on Jean Pichon, Minister of Foreign Affairs, I saw him say after a light cough. "The two of you, I think we should put aside the Kalash regional issue first. Let me make a suggestion here."

"Speaking."

"Speaking."

Seeing that both sides want to hear their own opinions, Minister Jean Pichon said. "Why don't we have a one-year deadline after the end of the war, and if the Romanians are in the majority then do as Lord Barnoske said, and if the Serbs are in the majority then do as Lord Balfour said, okay? "

Jean Pichon's overtones, of course, Barnosque, the Romanian foreign minister, heard it clearly. This is who will be in the hands of the Kalash region. After thinking about the current situation of the two countries, he immediately listened to him. opened his mouth. "I agree with Minister Jean Pichon."

"I agree too."

In the face of Minister Jean Pichon's partiality to Romania, Belfort actually agreed.

Seeing that the British were not doing anything wrong, the French representative who negotiated was also relieved. Now France has lost too much and needs new troops urgently. Who let the German army focus on the French army in several consecutive battles on the Western Front? Two-thirds of Germany, France, of course, couldn't take it. You must know that there have been many cases of soldiers in the French army refusing to go to the front, but they were all suppressed by the French government, but this also shows the state of the French army.
