Mediterranean Hegemony Road

In fact, from the end of the 19th century to the beginning of the 20th century, Serbia has been in a very awkward position!

In 1885, the King of Milan ordered the invasion of Bulgaria, but no one expected that it was defeated, and it was a complete defeat! !

You must know that the Bulgarian army at that time was a rabble, a group of militias that had not undergone decent training, and Russia had recalled the officers, the Bulgarian army was not even able to gather officers, even so Serbia was defeated!

Under the strong intervention of the boss, Austria-Hungary, Serbia ended the war without paying too much price!

But asking God is easy and difficult. From then on, Serbia will no longer be inseparable from the influence of the Austro-Hungarian Empire!

If that's the case, that's all. After the failure of the Bulgarian war, Serbia can only seek the asylum of Austria-Hungary in the face of the eyeing Bulgaria!

However, the Serbs have never been the masters of peace, and your gratitude to Austria-Hungary for sheltering you will be extinguished in a few days! Under the deceit of the Russians, they want to establish Greater Serbia, and the Austro-Hungarian Empire has become the biggest roadblock!

This is embarrassing. The boss who protects his own is his worst enemy. The hot-headed Serb thinks he must change jobs, and then come back and fight it!

This is also the reason why the Serbian government decided to find the Russians after the Austro-Hungarian Bank defaulted! Want to know that there are many people in Europe who can provide loans? Small countries like Belgium, Switzerland, and the Netherlands can provide financial loans without causing dissatisfaction in Austria-Hungary!

In this regard, Ferdinand can only say that the Serbs' talent for death is too powerful! ! Is Austria-Hungary good? In the eyes of later generations, Austria-Hungary is a foreign power, but the Austro-Hungarian Empire at the end of the 19th century was by no means the Austro-Hungarian Empire in the First World War.

Chief of Staff Petrov said happily: "So, the Austro-Hungarian Empire also hopes that Serbia will be unlucky! Can we do it~~"

The Minister of Industry Wei Zheng-Ivanlov shook his head and said, "No! Austria-Hungary wanted to see Serbia unlucky. In the previous rebellion, they refused to help and watched jokes, but they didn't think that Austria-Hungary would like to see it. Let's make it big!

They intervened in 1886, not to mention that now that the "Russian-Russian Alliance" has been established, it is even more impossible to watch us annex Serbia! "

When Wei Zheng's words landed, everyone fell into deep contemplation. At this time, the Chancellor of the Exchequer Kennedy suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Is it possible to carve up Serbia with Austria-Hungary? The big deal is that we will lose a little bit and take less!"

Everyone rolled their eyes, just kidding! Don't eat meat, but you will get a show! Aside from the reactions of other powers, how to divide the spoils? ? If you take too much, Austria-Hungary will not agree, and if you take too little, it is not a good thing to be neighbors with the Austro-Hungarian Empire!

Now Bulgaria is doing well. It is not that it does not have borders with foreign powers. The neighboring countries are weak chickens, and there is not much pressure on national defense! Once the border with Austria-Hungary, the good times are over!

Think of the terrible world war, which will be forced to be involved as soon as the war begins, Ferdinand decisively throws this proposal out of the sky. Of course, if the interest is big enough, he also minds taking a risk, but Serbia is not worth the price in this era!

At this time, Constantine spoke up and said, "It is unrealistic to divide up Serbia, we are still too weak, and it is too dangerous to be neighbors with Austria-Hungary!

The Austro-Hungarian government is certainly dissatisfied with Serbia. The most important thing now is to find out how dissatisfied it is. Is there anything we might gain from it?

If the Austro-Hungarian Empire needs it, we can cooperate with them and teach Serbia a lesson, just collect a little labor fee from it! "

After listening to Constantine's serious remarks, Ferdinand finally understood the horror of politicians. Many things are not as simple as they appear on the surface, and transactions can be done behind the scenes!

If the Austro-Hungarian government is really dissatisfied with Serbia,

Bulgaria is willing to cooperate with the Austro-Hungarian Empire to perform a play and teach them a lesson. Ferdinand estimates that all the old emperors will agree!

Anyway, the unfortunate thing is Serbia. Even if Bulgaria can benefit from it, the biggest gain is the Austro-Hungarian Empire!

...

After a meeting, Ferdinand felt very bad, and finally returned to the original point - the attitude of the foreign powers! This kind of uncontrollable situation is disgusting to everyone in power!

Even if he was reluctant, Ferdinand sent a telegram to Franz Joseph I in his personal name to test the attitude of the Austro-Hungarian Empire towards Serbia!

In Vienna's Schönbrunn Palace, the old emperor and Franz Joseph I have been in deep thought since they received Ferdinand's telegram!

Serbia's little actions, he is very clear, many times in his view, these farces are very puzzling!

You must know that the current situation is that Serbia is inseparable from the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Otherwise, they cannot cope with Bulgaria alone. Ferdinand's telegram is the best proof!

And the Austro-Hungarian Empire left Serbia, or the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the impact is minimal!

In this case, it is enough to follow the boss and be the younger brother. The results of it? Serbs seem to be afraid of being forgotten, and they come out every now and then to brush their presence!

Hooking up with Russians is nothing more than doing it secretly, but it is so obvious that I am afraid that it will not be discovered!

Franz Joseph despises the actions of the Serbian government. Even if you want the boss to pay attention, you can't collude with the enemy! I don't know that Erwuzai has always been the fastest to die?

Originally, he was very optimistic about Alexander being able to govern at a young age, but he didn't expect to see it wrong. It was completely a crooked talent tree, and all the ability points were added to the infighting of power and intrigue!

Franz Joseph could not decide whether to agree to Ferdinand's proposal, although he wanted to teach Serbia a lesson!

"Here comes, notify the Cabinet of a meeting this afternoon!"

...

The result was not unexpected. The Austro-Hungarian government's patience with Serbia has been exhausted, especially the slogan of "Greater Serbia". Don't you know that this is cutting flesh on the boss? ?

Rice can be eaten indiscriminately, but words can't be said indiscriminately!

They must be taught a lesson. As the boss to discipline the younger brother, you cannot rely solely on brute force. That is the last resort!

Bulgaria is willing to do it for you, that is the best, Lang Youqing concubine is interested, so the two sides hit it off!

Now that Austria-Hungary agreed, Ferdinand did not hesitate any longer and ordered to prepare for war! To deal with a Serbia, Bulgaria does not need to do its best, at least the Type 75 field gun has no chance to show its face this time!
