The next day, it was still the same face as yesterday, and after greeting each other this time, the two sides were ready to continue the negotiation of yesterday's conditions.

Yesterday Foreign Minister Dilas Lodge sent a telegram to the country, describing the conditions of Romania to King Ferdinand, and received a reply that evening. There are only a few words on it: "Everything will be done according to the Prime Minister's orders". Looking at these few words, Prime Minister Gaishov knew that this was recognition and restraint, and no matter what the final result was, he would need to bear it himself.

On the Romanian side, it was easier, and Eder's request to the prime minister was that the territory could be more and the ordnance and equipment could be given a little more, but the troops would not be discussed. And Prime Minister Bretianu and Foreign Minister Barnosque both believe that this goal is easy to achieve. And they also have the biggest hole cards and are in complete control of Bulgarian dynamics.

Now the two sides have started a new round of negotiations, but this time Prime Minister Bretianu spoke first.

"Prime Minister Gesov, this time, in order to demonstrate the sincerity of our Romanians, we are willing to reduce the claimed territory by 1,000 square kilometers on yesterday's terms, and also increase the military aid to Bulgaria to 8,000 Mauser 98 rifles, the Madsen machine gun to 100, and we are providing 12 field guns in addition to 18 mountain guns. This is already the greatest sincerity that we in Romania have expressed, and I hope that Prime Minister Geesov will not make it difficult for everyone. ”

Hearing Prime Minister Brettianu's big concessions, and the lowering of the conditions, Prime Minister Geishov knew that he had to make concessions on his side, otherwise the negotiations would not be able to proceed. After thinking about it, he spoke to Prime Minister Brettianu. "Thank you to the Romanian government for your understanding of Bulgaria, our sincerity we have already felt. At the same time, we have also received the king's approval, and the conditions for Romania have been raised considerably. This time we can save the Romanian government from having to send troops. Because of the Romanians of Macedonia, we are also willing to increase the area of the territory to 3,000 square kilometers as compensation. But a declaration of war on the Ottomans is necessary to show the unity of our Balkan nations. At present, because of the preparation for the war of the Ottoman Empire, there is no way to reduce the ordnance, which I hope Prime Minister Bretianu and Foreign Minister Barnoske understand. ”

After hearing Prime Minister Gaisov's conditions, Prime Minister Bretianu seemed that the gap between the two sides in terms of territory was now 2,000 square kilometers, and he believed that there would be no problem in taking a step back and making a deal at 4,000 square kilometers. There is no difference in armaments, all 8,000 Mauser 98 rifles. On artillery, due to the price of 12 field guns, it was not a problem at all to change to 18 mountain guns. Now as long as the issue of the difference in territorial cession is resolved, then this negotiation will be largely completed, and he is full of confidence in the completion of this negotiation.

"Prime Minister Gaisov, we in Romania have shown the greatest sincerity, and I am afraid that your additional conditions are not enough." Prime Minister Bretianu pretended to be a little annoyed and spoke to Prime Minister Geishov.

"Prime Minister Blettianu, this is also our Bulgarian show the greatest sincerity, you must know that this is still approved by our king." The Prime Minister Gaischov is also talking nonsense with his mouth open.

Seeing Prime Minister Gaisov's remarks, Prime Minister Bretianu was not easy to refute, in fact, he had long known the content of Bulgaria's telegrams, and this was thanks to the newspaper reporter who bought the Bulgarian embassy, this gambling addicted reporter was pulled down by the intelligence chief Milok's subordinates and became a two-faced man, and he kept selling the telegrams sent by Bulgaria to him for gambling money, which is also Prime Minister Bretianu's greatest confidence.

Although he knew that the Prime Minister Gaischov was lying, he did not intend to expose it, so he continued. "Prime Minister Geisov's continued stalemate will not be beneficial to this negotiation. We hope to reach an agreement with Bulgaria, but this is not so urgent for us, and Bulgaria is different. ”

In the face of Bretianu's coercion, Prime Minister Gaisov knew that he was right, this time it was Bulgaria who had a request, but the bottom line he set for himself was 4,000 square kilometers, and if he had more, he would not be able to return to China to explain to Ferdinand I. So he can only take a slight step back and see how Prime Minister Brettianu responds.

Prime Minister Gaisov's face was indifferent, as if Prime Minister Brettianu's coercion did not exist. "We Bulgaria have come this time with sincerity, and of course we will not embarrass you. So I decided to increase the area of the ceded territory to 3,200 square kilometers for the sake of friendship between the two countries. This is a temporary addition to my decision, which still needs the king's approval. ”

After speaking, Prime Minister Geisov looked at Prime Minister Brettianu's actions and waited for him to reply. Prime Minister Bretianu, who was watched by Prime Minister Geishov, knew that he was waiting for his answer, and if he really did not lower his demands, then the negotiations would probably end unhappily. He cleared his voice and said his answer. "We are also for the friendship of the two countries, and we can reduce the territory ceded by Bulgaria by 200 square kilometers, that is, 4,800 square kilometers of territory can meet our demands."

After hearing Prime Minister Brettianu's words, Prime Minister Gaisov knew that the negotiations were completed. Romania's claim appears to be 4,000 square kilometres of territory, which is still within its reach.

In the ensuing period, the two prime ministers revolved around the cession of territory, from being arrogant at the beginning to being as calculating as peasant women buying vegetables in two vegetable markets. You reduce 50 square kilometers, I increase 50 square kilometers, the two sides are inextricably linked, and the two foreign ministers are eye-opening when they look at their respective prime ministers arguing over this.

It was only on the third day that they agreed on the ceded territories, and Bulgaria ceded 4,000 square kilometers of territory to Romania as compensation for his future occupation of Macedonia.

However, Prime Minister Gaischov also won a considerable amount of military aid for Bulgaria, and within three months Romania had to provide Bulgaria with 12,000 Mauser 98 rifles, 50 Madsen machine guns, 30 Maxim machine guns, and 36 mountain guns, and Bulgaria would buy 15 million rounds of ammunition for rifle machine guns, and 8,000 rounds of shells for 75 mountain guns. This is 8.7 million lei worth of arms, and after deducting the ammunition purchased by Bulgaria, Romania also donated 54 million lei of ammunition to them.

On 11 June, Romania signed a secret alliance treaty with Bulgaria. In the case of compensation for the Bulgarian occupation of Macedonia by the Romanian settlements, Romania would receive 2,000 square kilometres of Southern Dobroga and 2,000 square kilometres of Northern Dogoriel, and it was clearly stipulated in this treaty that the treaty of alliance between Romania and Bulgaria was directed only against the Ottoman Empire. After the war between Bulgaria and the Ottoman Empire, Romania would also declare war on the Ottoman Empire. However, Romania will not send troops, but only a military delegation to observe the performance of the Bulgarian and Ottoman armies.

For the cost of Romania's non-participation in the fighting, a military loan of two million lei will be made to Bulgaria, limited to the purchase of Romanian arms, which Prime Minister Geisov has tried so hard to obtain.

The ceded part of the treaty avoids the Bulgarian city of Dobritsch, making it a complete Bulgarian border crossing. This is what Prime Minister Gaisov has earned.

After the signing of the alliance treaty, Foreign Minister Barnoske asked Crown Prince Eder a little puzzled, why did he give Bulgaria so many arms, after all, Romania's financial situation has only been better than a year, and such negotiations feel that the Bulgarians are not too disadvantaged at all.

Crown Prince Eder did not have a clear answer to this, but just said a sentence and continued to read. He remembered that the Balkan War had broken out twice, the first time he remembered fighting the Ottoman Empire, and the second time was very short, as if the allies had fallen out and fought Bulgaria together. Then he needs to strengthen Bulgaria, and he can't make them admit defeat so quickly, otherwise Romania will not be able to maximize the benefits, and Romania's achievements in building up the army over the years also need to be tested.
