Chapter 283： Preparation (3)

After the meeting chaired by Edel, Romania’s war preparations began as quickly as possible. A large number of military materials began to be transported to various military points under other uses.

At the first largest station of the Roo Railway entering Romania, Targuzhiu, two staff members in the station dispatching room are chatting.

"Hi, Somme. You said there is too much cargo these days. Our station has been spinning for several days."

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

"I know that you are in contact with Toros. Don't mess with these goods. I don't see the people who guard the goods. It's not easy. They are probably all retired soldiers."

Someone was speechless after his mind was broken, but he listened to what his colleagues said, which saved him from a disaster.

At the same time in Paris, after three days of secret marching, the Minister of Foreign Affairs Barnosque, who is the plenipotentiary representative, is also approaching Paris. In this secret trip to Paris for negotiations, Barnosk did not bring any extra candidates, except for a few capable personnel from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Major General Dotov, a representative of the military. The main task of this major general is also to coordinate the forces of the Allied Powers in Greece and fight against Bulgaria's related matters.

The hardships on the road did not make the minister of foreign affairs in his 50s feel too tired. He was chatting with Major General Dotov about the customs and customs he saw along the way.

"I still remember the experience of studying in France. At that time, France was not so deserted, and I didn't see many men along the way."

"Yes, France lost too much in this war, even if it is to win, the price is too great."

Feeling that it is inappropriate to talk about its losses on French territory, Major General Dotov decided to change the subject. "French men are all on the battlefield, but they are suffering for French women. According to our own military observation mission, a few cans and a bag of flour in France can allow French women to show their enthusiasm and unrestrained spirit. 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. "My Excellency, Paris is here."

So the two got off the train. As the capital of France, Paris can be regarded as its largest railway transportation hub. Materials from all over the country can arrive here along the railway. This has also become the largest logistics base of the French army. A group of people from the Romanian negotiations felt this in a short period of time. Within ten minutes after they got off the train and walked out of the station, three reinforcements chanting Marseilles crossed the platform and drove along the front line. There were also two wounded vehicles that were still dripping with blood and full of mourning. Drive behind.

In just over ten minutes, the Romanian group who was still at peace immediately felt the cruelty of the war. At the same time, they also noticed that the staff on and off the station turned a blind eye to this kind of scene, doing what they should do, without any internal ups and downs. This made the negotiators feel that the hearts of the French people are strong.

One more sentence, this time the Romanian negotiator was greeted by French Foreign Minister Jean Pichon, which also represents the importance attached to Romania’s participation at this time by the Allies. Through observations along the way, Barnosque, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Romania, has a deep understanding that whether it is from the reception level or the itinerary is designed to allow them to get to Paris faster and more comfortably. This started from Marseille. The train stopped for two hours to wait for them, and the luxury carriages that were temporarily added can be seen.

Although France has prepared so much for the Romanian negotiating delegation, Barnosque, who was the plenipotentiary representative during the negotiations, would not be grateful for this and give up his interests. He who should be fighting is not at all polite.

"Gentlemen, the Kalash area has always been a gathering place for our Romanians. There are not many Serbs in the area. In that respect, this is inconsistent with the previous negotiations. I hope you can understand. Ask the local situation again."

As a plenipotentiary, Barnosque made boastful talks in the face of French Prime Minister Clemenceau, Foreign Minister Jean Pichon, Secretary of War Paul Penrevet, and British Foreign Secretary Belfort, because the negotiations started at the beginning. Yaozi. I don't know why, the British Foreign Secretary Belfort once came up to repent of the conditions that he had promised before.

He questioned the Austro-Hungarian Kalash region next to Serbia, which should have belonged to Romania, and proposed that the region should be self-reliant after the war on the grounds that the local Serbs had a majority. This immediately became the plenipotentiary Barnos. Gram denied. He didn't care about whether the Serbs occupied the majority in the area. Barnoske insisted that the local Serbs were a minority. This was the British Foreign Secretary's mistake in remembering, and he showed a completely unreasonable attitude.

Seeing this kind of situation, another way to negotiate is not to sit still. UU Read France has no preparations for the Kalash area that the UK suddenly raised, but now they can only make the rounds first. And this task can only fall on the Minister of Foreign Affairs Jean Pichon, and he said after a light cough. "The two of me think we should put aside the Kalash area problem first. Let me make a suggestion here."

"Speaking."

"Speaking."

Seeing that both parties want to hear their own opinions, Minister Jean Pichon said. "It's not as good as we have a period of one year after the end of the war. If the Romanians have a majority, then we will do what His Excellency Barnosque said. If the Serbs dominate, then we will do what His Excellency Belfort said, okay? "

Jean Pichon’s overtones, Barnosque, as Romania’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, of course heard clearly. This is based on who will be in the hands of the Kalash region at that time. After thinking about the current situation of the two countries, he immediately Opened the mouth. "I agree with Minister Jean Pichon."

"I also agree."

Facing Minister Jean Pichon’s favour of Romania, Belfort actually agreed.

Seeing that the British were not arranging moths, the French representatives in the negotiations were also relieved. Now France has lost too much and is in urgent need of new troops. Who made the Germans focus on the French in several successive Western Front campaigns. The original population was only only. Of course, two-thirds of Germany's France is too much to bear. We must know that there have been many cases of soldiers refusing to go to the front in the French army, but they have all been suppressed by the French government, but this also shows the state of the French army.
