Edel held the telegram from Bulgarian Foreign Minister Dirasloch in his hand, and said Foreign Minister Barnosk. "These Bulgarians are doing a great job."

Foreign Minister Barnosk carefully asked the crown prince's opinion. "His Royal Highness, you see how we should answer Bulgaria's request."

Seeing Foreign Minister Barnosk's cautious expression, Eder ignored him and said directly. "Promise them, and tell them that we will send this batch of arms in ten days."

After hearing the crown prince's answer, Foreign Minister Barnosk went out and sent a telegram to Bulgaria, intending to inform Bulgaria of the crown prince's intentions. It is estimated that Bulgarian Foreign Minister Dirasloch is also anxious.

After seeing Foreign Minister Barnosk go out, Eder called a guard and said to him. "Call General Pulishan here."

"Okay, Your Highness."

After the guard answered, he went out of the palace to find General Pulieshan.

About half an hour later, the chief of the general staff, Preshan, strode to Eder. Speaking to the Crown Prince. "Your Highness, look for me."

Edel asked the chief of staff in front of him. "How did I make you do things?"

General Pulieshan knew what the crown prince asked, and immediately said the result that the crown prince wanted to know. "I've asked the staff to do it."

"tell me the story."

General Pu Lishan took a map and told the crown prince about the plan that had been prepared. "His Royal Highness, according to the plan of our General Staff, we will concentrate 12 infantry divisions and one cavalry division of our Romanian army, plus three 150 heavy artillery regiments and one 210 heavy artillery regiment, which we attacked after we declared war on Bulgaria. All the troops. At home we leave the 1st Division of the Guards to defend the capital Bucharest, and at the border we mobilize the militia to form 6 temporary divisions to defend the border between Austria-Hungary and Russia."

After talking about domestic preparations,

Prieshan went on to talk about plans for an army attack. "I intend to form the 3rd, 2nd, 10th, and 10th cavalry divisions into the 1st Army as the arrow of our army. The 7th, 5th, 10th, and 2nd Guard Division form the 2nd Army as the right wing of the 1st Army The 1st, 4th, 8th and 14th divisions form the third army, which is the left flank of the first army. The 17th division serves as a reserve to guard the transportation line. The first task of the first army is to capture Targovi, and the second army The initial task is to capture Polski, and the third army's task is to capture Varna. After completing their respective goals, the three armies capture Tarnovo together. It is expected that we will meet the main Bulgarian army near Tarnovo, At that time, our 12 divisions will defeat them in one fell swoop and establish the victory of this war."

After saying this, General Pulieshan added. "We assigned three 150 heavy artillery regiments to the three armies, and the 210 heavy artillery regiment followed our command. This time we requisitioned 1,100 Dongfeng trucks from Volkswagen for nearly half a month, plus our Romanian army. Our own nearly 2,000 trucks are enough to ensure our logistical supply this time. And we will also bring 24 aircrafts of the flight team to ensure that we can detect the arrival of the Bulgarian army in time.”

After listening to General Pulieshan's report, Edel was quite satisfied with the army's actions, so he continued to ask. "Any plans for the Navy?"

"some."

Facing the crown prince's questioning, Pleasant continued to talk about the naval plan given to him by the Minister of the Navy Lomodan. "On the naval side, after the start of operations of the Third Army, the cruiser Count Dazila will be the flagship, leading the cruiser Elizabeth, plus four Bogdan-class gunboats and six Bassnow-class torpedo boats, It will cooperate with the Third Army to capture Varna, and then the Navy will send a fleet to block the remaining Bulgarian port of Burgas."

Hearing that the Presun army presented the Romanian army's entire battle plan, Eder said with satisfaction. "It's a good job. It's unbelievable that Romania has no interests in this Balkan war. Now that Bulgaria and Sehi have a dispute, this is our opportunity."

The chief of the general staff, Pu Lieshan, asked a little puzzled. "But Your Highness, why do we need to help Bulgaria with so many arms?"

Edel said with a smile. "If both Sehi and Bulgaria can defeat Bulgaria, then how can we Romania make conditions."

General Pulieshan, who understood the thoughts of the crown prince, suddenly realized, Edel looked at his chief of staff and continued to speak. "And our Romanian army has been reorganized for so many years, we should also pull it out and see, Bulgaria is called the Prussia of the Balkans, this is an excellent target, General Preshan, you will not think that our standing army can't beat those tired Bulgarians. Bar?"

After hearing the Crown Prince's question, Chief of General Staff Pu Lieshan said confidently. "Of course not, Your Highness. In this war, we will show the world the style of the Romanian army. I am not bragging. With an army like Bulgaria, we can do 1 on 2 without any problem."

Romania is way better than Bulgaria in terms of equipment, training and morale. According to the observation report given by the commander of the 12th Division, Fei Leit, Puleshan has seen the combat effectiveness of Bulgaria, and Bulgaria's style of play, when encountering a situation like Romania that is equipped with a large number of machine guns, what will happen? Lieshan knew exactly what he knew during the exercise.

After sending General Presun away, Eder looked at the map he had used before, and rowed from the small town of Svishtov on the Danube to the Black Sea along the small town of Preslav, to Dobri in Bulgaria. The four cities of Qi, Ruse, Suman and Varna, with a territory of about 22,000 square kilometers, were drawn.

Eder looked at the drawn Bulgarian territory and said to himself. "This will be a condition for me to join you."

Eder has long planned to seek benefits for Romania in the Balkan War, but the Ottoman Empire does not border Romania, so he has no choice. However, the split of the Balkan alliance this time made him see an opportunity. Why should he join the Sehi alliance? Of course, territory is one aspect, and more importantly, a war is coming soon. Eder was eager to show the European powers the strength of the Romanian army. There is a strong fighting force in the war, whether it is neutral or joining the war, others can come up with a good condition to win over. Bulgaria fully meets Eder's two conditions, and Bulgaria has not yet assigned 4,000 square kilometers of territory to Romania, which would be the best casus belli -.

Now he just needs to wait for the hands of friendship between the two countries and talk to them about his demands. As for the possibility that the two countries may not come, Eder does not have to worry at all. If the first power in the Balkans does not pull into the alliance, it is the two countries that have problems with their minds.
