Alexander I just wanted to say that the baby's heart is bitter! Last time, his father went against the wishes of Austria-Hungary and launched the Bulgarian War, and after the defeat, he sued for peace, and Austria-Hungary helped him, but he still lost the throne!

The situation is much worse now than it was then, after all, Bulgaria was not much better than Serbia at that time, and the country was in chaos!

If you want to pass the test this time, you can't do it without paying the price! The king of Milan is in Serbia, and he still has a group of supporters, and after being forced to abdicate, he can also push Alexander I to succeed him!

He was miserable, as soon as he took over, it was a mess, as soon as he was in power, he caught up with the civil war, and as soon as he settled the country, the Bulgarians fought again!

For Serbia to choose the worst king, he is definitely the strongest contender!

Alexander I, although young, was not ignorant, and a series of blows had already taught him that he was not a genius!

If you think about it, in order to cater to the people's desire for a great power, the slogan of building a "Greater Serbia" was shouted, and you know that the tragedy is doomed!

A king who wants to dominate the Balkans may be welcomed by the Serbs, but Austria-Hungary will never tolerate it!

Alexander smiled bitterly and said, "Your Excellency, do you think we still have a choice?" ”

……

By the time the Serbian government decided to ask Austria-Hungary for help, it was already too late!

The battle in the Niš area has begun, Subolovich's desperate offensive has finally torn open the defensive line, Serbian troops are pouring in, and the disaster has begun!

Petrov, chief of the Bulgarian General Staff, personally led three newly formed divisions, and under the cover of night, he had quietly rushed to the battlefield, and the superiority of the Serbian army in strength was no longer obvious!

Breaking through the Serbian army, before there was time to celebrate, a feast of artillery fire was ushered in!

After a short break, Petrov, with reinforcements, quickly went to the battlefield and plugged the gap in the line of defense!

The Serbian army was thus separated, and Subolovvich knew that the tide was turning! The main forces have fallen into the enemy's trap!

He commanded the remnants of his forces and launched a fierce attack, trying to rescue the besieged main force!

Dante Kristof is not stupid, how could such a thing happen? directly chose to defend on the spot, relying on the advantage of firepower, waiting for the Serbian army to come up and send them to death!

The enemy forces in the encirclement are not in a hurry to attack, but they are constantly harassed with artillery!

The fighting was stalemate until the third day, and the intensity of the fighting between the two sides became lower and lower, and Subolovvich knew that there was no hope of rescuing the main force!

At the time of the attack, the troops carried limited supplies, and the battle lasted for two days, and now the troops inside were almost out of ammunition and food!

In the city of Niš, Subolovich made one last patrol of the camp, returned to the command and gave the last order: "Appoint Kulistreich as temporary commander-in-chief, and the whole army will retreat to Belgrade!" ”

A souvenir glance at the map of Serbia, Subolovvich committed suicide by bombing! The Armageddon of Niš was announced, ending with a complete defeat for Serbia!

Knowing that after being abandoned, the Serbian army, which had fallen into the encirclement, finally could not bear the pressure and collapsed!

At this point, the decisive battle in which the two countries have invested 300,000 troops has come to an end!

When the news broke, it shocked the world!

From the outbreak of the war to the present, the Bulgarians have invested more than 200,000 troops, and Serbia has invested 380,000 troops!

This biggest decisive battle in the Balkans since the Crimean War was decided in just over a week!

The Maxim machine gun shines greatly on the battlefield! Dante Kristof withstood the siege of more than 200,000 Serbian troops with three divisions, and Maxim made great contributions!

The news reached Bulgaria and the whole country celebrated! The victory came too breakthrough, from the declaration of war to the present, but in just one week, Serbia was defeated on all fronts!

For the war later, Ferdinand no longer pays attention, the battle has been fought to this extent, if the Serbs can still turn the tables, it will be a real child of destiny!

The next step was negotiation, and Ferdinand asked: "Prime Minister, the Austro-Hungarian intervention is about to begin!" Now it's time to get paid, what is the opinion of your cabinet? ”

Konstantin said with a red face: "Your Excellency, Serbia is finished, and this time we will make them pay a terrible price!" Our cabinet believes that Serbia should cede to us all the land south of the Morava River and pay us 300 million leva in war reparations! ”

Ferdinand smiled and asked, "Will Austria-Hungary agree?" ”

Serbia's attitude can already be ignored, Ferdinand's question brought Konstantin back to reality, and the object that Bulgaria now needs to negotiate with is Austria-Hungary!

"Of course, if Austria-Hungary could agree, so much the better! Even if they annex Serbia, we can support it! Ferdinand added

He really hoped that Austria-Hungary had the determination to annex Serbia! After all, there are enough national contradictions within Austria-Hungary now, and if another Serbia is added that is good at killing the dead, it will be even more lively!

The smile on Konstantin's face gradually disappeared, and the partition of Serbia with Austria-Hungary was theoretically feasible, but practically almost impossible!

At the end of the 19th century, Serbia was only in the central part of present-day Serbia! Ceded all the territory south of the Molava River, which is already equivalent to a third of Serbia's land area!

Konstantin hesitated and said: "Your Excellency, if we negotiate with Austria-Hungary, it is estimated that it will be difficult for us to gain much!" Is it possible to turn to the Russian Empire for help? ”

Ferdinand smiled and said, "I know more about the Austro-Hungarian Empire than any of you!"

The Foreign Ministry first approached the hawks in Austria-Hungary, especially those who advocated the annexation of Serbia! After all, a weak Serbia is convenient for them to start, and we have a common topic on this point!

There is also - public relations, use all the connections that can be used to give gifts to those big nobles, even if you can't let them speak for us, we must strive for their neutrality! ”

Everyone was dumbfounded, isn't this a blatant bribe? However, for Ferdinand's proposal, everyone admires it in addition to admiration!

It's hard to say about other empires, but there are really very few problems that Austria-Hungary can't solve with money, and who calls it more interest groups? The interests of the state can never be compared to the interests of the group!

The Hungarians, at least, were interested in Serbia, but they wanted Hungary to annex Serbia, not another Serbia in Austria-Hungary!

The Austrians' claims are different, across Hungary, it is impossible for them to annex directly, and it seems to be a good choice to have one more Serbian kingdom!
