Bulgarian Empire

Influenced by the Ministry of the Navy, Ferdinand suddenly opened up his mind. It is too difficult for Bulgaria to climb the technology tree alone!

However, there are too many countries like Bulgaria that hope that the country can develop and grow, but do not have enough strength to research, such as Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands, Belgium, Sweden, Switzerland, Denmark and other countries, is this the case!

Taken separately, either lack of funds or lack of technology, everyone is not strong enough to compete with the great powers in various fields.

Ferdinand believes that there will always be some people in these countries who are unwilling to continue like this, seeing the gap between them and the world powers getting wider and wider, so teaming up and cooperating with each other has become a way to consider!

However, mutual trust is also a big problem. In the short term, it is unrealistic to integrate the scientific and technological forces of various countries!

But it is still feasible to cooperate in a certain field for mutual benefit! \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Once the small European countries can reach cooperation, Bulgaria can be independent in many fields and get rid of its dependence on the great powers!

It may not be possible to catch up with the great powers, but it is always possible to follow their footsteps and not be pulled too far!

...

History took another turning point. 1903 became a new era of Bulgarian diplomacy. Ferdinand's original creation of "win-win cooperation and joint technological tree climbing" became the theme of European diplomacy in the middle and late 20th century, and also laid the foundation for the establishment of the European Union!

After Ferdinand's order, the Bulgarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs took action, frequently showing favor to other countries in the diplomatic field, and domestic enterprises also began to go abroad to find partners.

There have been successes and failures in these collaborations. At the same time, with this series of actions, the diplomatic relations between Bulgaria and European countries have improved significantly! \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

This is a good thing and a bad thing!

Now is the beginning of the 20th century, when imperialism is expanding massively around the world, and Ferdinand's small actions have also attracted their attention.

If the relationship with the world's major powers cannot be well coordinated, such a plan may end without a problem at any time due to the intervention of the great powers.

As for whether it can coordinate the relationship with the great powers? Ferdinand's answer was: No!

No one is a fool, can't they see the purpose of Bulgaria's doing this?

The reason why no one has intervened yet is because Ferdinand has not yet achieved major results. If it is just a small disturbance, everyone may turn a blind eye and close one eye, and it will pass!

What's more, no one wants to be this early bird. After all, this is a lot of hate value, and it will pull the hatred value of so many European countries at once! \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Without sufficient interests, the great powers will not stand out. On the contrary, when they realize that their interests are large enough to even threaten them, it is time for the great powers to intervene!

This is a very embarrassing problem. If there is no conflict of interest between the partners of the cooperation, then naturally they have to be far apart; at the same time, if everyone is too far away, there is no way to unite with each other and resist the pressure of the great powers. !

The "plan to build an alliance" has not yet begun, and it died here in Ferdinand!

In line with the principle that suffering alone is worse than suffering for all, not only Ferdinand was suffering from headaches, but also the officials of the Bulgarian cabinet were also suffering from headaches with him.

"Your Majesty, if we want to solve this problem, we may not be able to do it now. After all, we can withstand the pressure of the great powers, but they can't!

But it's okay to delay for a while. When the big powers intervene, we may have already got what we want! "Foreign Minister Megev said hesitantly\u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Ferdinand asked suspiciously, "What should I do?"

Mezev thought for a while and said: "First find a way to divert the attention of the great powers,

The cooperation between us and other countries should be carried out as secretly as possible to reduce the attention of the society! Even if there is a result, keep it a secret first, and count as long as it lasts! "

"The Russo-Japanese War!" Ferdinand suddenly thought of these four words

Could this be destiny? If you want to sleep, someone will send you a pillow!

The hidden dangers of the Russo-Japanese War were planted more than ten years ago. And the "British-Japanese Alliance Treaty" signed by Britain and Japan on January 30, 1902, watered and fertilized this particle, and now it has begun to sprout!

In response to the "British-Japanese Alliance", the Russians hastily pulled the French and issued a tit-for-tat "Joint Declaration" on March 16.

Even Bulgaria didn't run away this time, probably because the Russians felt that Bulgaria had some influence in the Mediterranean, and they were also brought along! \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Oh, the request of the Russians, Ferdinand readily agreed. Anyway, he knew that the two sides would not really fight. The Anglo-Boer War had not yet ended, so how could the British be initiating a new war?

Even if there is a fight, Bulgaria is also a soy sauce product, and it has nothing to do with them except for waving the flag and shouting! The navy can only send heads when going out, and the British dare not come over in the 6th World War!

Just yelling twice, of course Ferdinand has no pressure! What's more, Bulgaria just needs to pull the tiger skin of the "French-Russian alliance" to protect its interests overseas!

As for whether the Russo-Japanese War will break out? Ferdinand said very calmly, as long as the group of idiots in the Japanese army haven't changed their cores, they will definitely start a war on their own initiative!

The current Anglo-Japanese alliance has given them enough motivation, even if the Japanese government has no idea of ​​​​going to war with the Russians now! \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

But those idiots who have been brainwashed by the **** don't think so much, they don't care about the horror of Mao Xiong. The master who thinks he is invincible in the world probably doesn't care about the gap in national strength between the two sides!

Japan and Russia in history are now, the Russians are constrained by traffic and unable to exert their full strength, the Army is still fighting the Japanese!

Forget about the navy, this is not Mao Xiong's specialty, coupled with the Tsarist government whose head may be confused at any time, Ferdinand is not optimistic about them!

But the 6th battle is not necessarily the case. I don’t know if Nicholas II was stimulated by the attack in Japan. There are still two or three years to go!

If the war had not ended after the railway was opened to traffic, Ferdinand would like to know what method Britain could use at that time to block the bear back? \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

But it also takes time, at least find something for the media, temporarily attract the spotlight of the public, don't run around every day to stare at the cooperation projects between Bulgaria and other countries!

As for those newspapers who advocated his "win-win cooperation" theory, he just wants to shut them up now! There is no way to suppress public opinion in a democratic society!

After thinking for a while, Ferdinand said: "Well, to divert public attention, this question is simple!

At worst, I will visit European countries once, from St. Petersburg to London for a walk, first to draw the public's attention away from the cooperation project, and wait for a year and a half to talk about it!

The next cooperation will be carried out in a non-governmental manner as much as possible to reduce the influence as much as possible. Waiting for the changes in the Far East, when the time comes, everyone will be busy! "

...

There is no way that the Bulgarian government is willing to keep a low profile, but other countries have not cooperated. Does the ruling party still want to use this as a political achievement to promote votes? \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Even Ferdinand doesn't like to socialize, but now he has to make a trip. Attracting attention is only a small aspect, and more importantly, it is to handle the relationship between Bulgaria and European countries!

In the current international situation, it is obvious that the Franco-Russian Entente is facing the Anglo-Japanese Alliance, and even the contradictions between the Triple Alliance and the Franco-Russian Entente have been suppressed!

In other words, the Triple Entente between France, Russia and Bulgaria met the British-Japanese alliance. According to the plan formulated by Russia, once the war broke out, Bulgaria's port in the Mediterranean Sea would be their forward military base.

Oh, this one was automatically ignored by Ferdinand, mainly because it seems that even if the Franco-Russian alliance is now, the navy still cannot compete with the Royal Navy. The main reason is that the Russians held back, and taking the initiative to attack is a dead end, so this one cannot be completed at all!

Under normal circumstances, this kind of thing would not happen! Even if the British can win, but after fighting off France and Russia, the world hegemony will never even think about it. The Germans have long been waiting to take over! \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

But there are contingencies in everything, don’t have an accident at that time, the Russian is really beaten to the point of paralysis, then Bulgaria will be passive in diplomacy, this boss has helped block a lot of bullets!

The main purpose of Ferdinand's visit this time is to find out what kind of medicine is being sold in the gourds of St. Petersburg, London, and Paris?

The three countries began to have secret contacts as early as 1895. This cannot be hidden from others, but it must not be hidden from Ferdinand!

Of course, Germany and Russia have direct and secret contacts. The Bulgarian-Russian Alliance is not only the Russians infiltrating Bulgaria, but Bulgaria is also infiltrating the Russian government!

...

Oh, on this trip to Europe, Ferdinand also brought the Queen and Ferdinand Jr. As for the younger son, I can only say sorry. Being too young, it is risky to travel such a long distance, so she can only be entrusted to the care of her mother, Princess Clementine.

Fortunately, it is summer to go to St. Petersburg this time. If it is winter, even if Xenia repeatedly asked, Ferdinand would definitely not take this place as the first stop. The feeling of more than 30 degrees below zero is not so wonderful!

Of course, now is a good time, the weather is beautiful, the family of three are laughing and laughing constantly, especially after entering the Russian Empire, Xenia immediately refreshed, and kept doing science popularization for Ferdinand and his son!

Of course, there is also a guard army of more than 3,000 people accompanying him, with all kinds of machine guns and cannons.

In terms of momentum, Ferdinand also had a relatively large ostentation among the European monarchs, and there was a huge team of thousands of people wherever he went.

Oh, he would never admit that he brought so many guards because he was afraid of death. This was definitely just to show his noble status and the pomp he should have!

Of course, this big scene only refers to countries in Western Europe. If it comes to the Russian Empire, it will not be a big deal. The scale of the tsar's trips will usually be larger!

This trip to St. Petersburg is different from the previous ones, it is summer now. Along the way, Ferdinand's family has been warmly welcomed by the Russian people. It can be seen that Princess Xenia seems to be more popular, and this is from the heart!

It can be seen that the tsar is still very popular in Russia. It was hard for Ferdinand to imagine that more than ten years later, the tragedy of the tsar's family being wiped out would happen!
