Chapter 283: Preparation (3)

After the meeting chaired by Eder, Romania's preparations for war also began as soon as possible. Large quantities of military material began to be transported to various military points for other purposes.

At Tergužou, the first station on the Romanian railway, two staff members in the station's dispatch room were chatting.

"Hi Somme. You said that there are too many goods these days, and our station has been rotating for several days in a row. ”

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

"I know you're in touch with Taurus, so don't mess with these goods. Isn't it simple to see these people guarding the goods, most likely they are all veterans. ”

Someone was speechless after his mind was broken, 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 marching, Foreign Minister Barnosque, as plenipotentiary, was almost in Paris. This time he secretly went to Paris for negotiations, and Barnoske did not bring any extra candidates, except for a few capable personnel of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, that is, the representative of the military, Major General Dotov. The main task of this major general was also to coordinate the Allied forces in Greece and to attack Bulgaria.

The foreign secretary, who was already in his fifties, did not feel much fatigued by the arduous journey, and he was chatting with Major General Dontov about the customs and customs he had seen along the way.

"I still remember studying in France, when it wasn't so barren, and I didn't see many men along the way."

"Yes, the French losses in this war are too great, even if the price is too great in order to win."

Feeling a little inappropriate to talk about its losses on French territory, Major General Lotov decided to change the subject. "The French men are on the battlefield, but the French women are suffering. According to the personal experience of our Military Observer Mission, a few cans and a bag of flour in France can make a French woman show her enthusiasm, and if you are in a war zone, the bag of flour can be omitted. ”

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

So the two got off the train, as the capital of France, Paris is its largest railway transportation hub, and 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 negotiators from Romania felt this in a short period of time. Within 10 minutes of getting off the train and leaving the station, three reinforcement trains singing Marseillaise crossed the platform and headed for the front line, as did two wounded vehicles dripping with blood and wailing through the rear.

In just over ten minutes, the Romanian group, which was still at peace, immediately felt the cruelty of the war. At the same time, they also noticed that the staff at the station turned a blind eye to this kind of scene, and they did what they had to do, without any inner ups and downs. This made the negotiators and his party feel that the hearts of the French people were strong.

By the way, the negotiators who greeted Romania this time were French Foreign Minister Jean Pichon, which also represented the importance that the Entente attached to Romania's accession at this time. Through the observation of the whole way, as the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Romania, Barnosque has a deep understanding, whether it is from the reception level or the itinerary arranged to let their group get to Paris faster and more comfortable, which can be seen from the train from Marseille in order to wait for them for two hours, and the temporary addition of luxury cars.

Although France had prepared so much for the Romanian negotiating delegation, Barnoske, as plenipotentiary at the time of the negotiations, would not be grateful to give up his interests, and he was not at all polite in the competition.

"Gentlemen, the Kalash region has always been a gathering place for our Romanian community, there are not many Serbs there, and in that respect this is not in line with the previous negotiations, I hope you can understand the local situation before asking questions."

As plenipotentiary, Barnosque spoke in front of French Prime Minister Clemenceau, Foreign Minister Jean Pichon, War Secretary Paul Pellewe, and British Foreign Secretary Balfour, because the negotiations had gone wrong at the beginning. I don't know what the reason is, but British Foreign Secretary Balfour repented of the conditions he had agreed to as soon as he came up.

He questioned the Austro-Hungarian Kalash region, which was supposed to belong to Romania next to Serbia, and proposed that the region should undergo national independence after the war on the grounds that the local Serb majority was the majority, which was immediately vetoed by Barnosk, as plenipotentiary. He did not care at all about whether the Serbs were in the majority in the region, and Barnoske's insistence that the local Serbs were a minority was a mistake on the part of the British Foreign Secretary, and that he was completely unreasonable.

Seeing this situation, the other French country could not sit still, and France was not prepared at all for the question of the Kalash region that Britain suddenly raised, but now they could only play a round first. And this task can only fall to the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Jean Pichon, who said after coughing lightly. "I think we should put aside the issue of the Kalash region first, and here I would like to make a suggestion."

"Please."

"Please."

Seeing that both sides wanted to hear their opinions, Minister Jean Pichon said. "Why don't we set a deadline of one year after the end of the war, and then if the Romanians have a majority, then do as His Excellency Barnosque says, and if the Serbs have a majority, then do as His Excellency Balfort says, shall we?"

Jean Pichon's voice, as the Romanian Foreign Minister, of course, heard it clearly, and this is in whose hands the Kalash region will be in the hands of whom, and after thinking about the current situation of the two countries, he immediately spoke. "I agree with Minister Jean Pichon's words."

"I agree with it."

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

Seeing that the British were not making a moth, the French representative of the negotiation was also relieved, now that France has lost too much and urgently needs a new force, who let the German army focus on the French army in several successive battles on the Western Front, France, which has a population of only two-thirds of Germany, will certainly not be able to bear it. You must know that there have been many cases of soldiers refusing to go to the front line within the French army, but they have all been suppressed by the French government, but this can also show the state of the French army.
