Chapter 381： untitled

Edel took the telegram and quickly scanned it. After reading it, he put the telegram away and ordered: "Stop going to the government, call Carust here."

It didn't take long for Carust to rush over.

"Your Majesty, what's your order."

Looking at Carust in front of him, Edel's expression was a little uncertain. This made the chief guard think that he suspected that some work was not done well, which made his majesty angry.

But fortunately, before the frustrated Carust waited long, Edel always spoke. "Immediately send someone to investigate the Poles in Galicia. I will send a secret telegram to Admiral Salamik. If these Poles in the area do anything bad, he will cooperate with you in the implementation."

Edel's words made the chief guard feel that things are serious, and he couldn't help but ask: "What can we do?"

"There is no limit to the standard, as long as these Poles demonstrate and act immediately according to the first-level plan."

Edel's words made Carust's heart tensed. He knew what the first-level plan meant. This was a solution that was needed only when a rebellion occurred. This was the first time the plan was used since its formulation.

It needs to be explained here that after Edel took the throne, in order to prevent various emergencies, three levels of plans have been set up. The third-level plan is the outbreak of small-scale public protests, which is mainly resolved by the government. The second-level plan is a solution to the outbreak of large-scale public protests, which will be dealt with by the government and the military. The first-level plan is the emergence of hot issues, and the government's work of appeasement has been invalid. The investigation found that there have been riots in the area. Only then can the first-level plan be used. The policy of the plan is to block the area to prevent it from spreading, and then the army will wipe it out with the cooperation of the intelligence department.

It's just that the weirdness of this plan was used on Ukrainian territory. Carust had a vague idea in his mind, but he had to say this somewhat bold guess. So he immediately replied: "I will personally lead the team."

"Go ahead."

After sending Carust away, Edel looked at the Galicia region on the map and said to himself: "I hope that the situation I am worried about will not happen, otherwise, I will let you know the consequences of the Polish people. "

Yes, the telegram that Edel saw was a telegram from Prime Minister Bretianu that Poland wanted to seize Galicia from Romania.

For Edel, who has regarded the area as his own, these Poles are dying. In the case of acquiring a large area of ​​territory from Germany and former Russia, they will be hostile in the future. The Poles have the courage to provoke Romania. This can only be said that the Poles are completely blinded by greed.

However, it takes time to investigate the Galicia region. In addition to waiting for the results, Edel is also concerned about Romania's economic recovery.

However, Romania is currently reversing the current wartime economy. This can be seen from the large-scale cut of the army and the return of it to economic development.

However, this will take time, and the current GDP of Romania’s domestic industrial and agricultural production has not recovered significantly due to the impact of the war. It can only reach 68% of the highest level (before the declaration of war on the Allies), which is also affected by the general mobilization of the war.

However, the government's performance is quite calm, because the development of the newly occupied territory will drive the recovery of Romania's economy. And there is another reason that everyone is tacitly tacitly aware of, that is, with the disintegration of Austria-Hungary, the defeat of Germany, and the discoloration of Russia, there has been an interest vacuum in Central and Southern Europe and the Balkans, which they used to compete for.

At present, the strongest country in the region is Romania. Therefore, government departments generally believe that Romania can also get a share of the British, French, and Italian infiltration of the region.

However, as the Minister of Industry, Karatuuri also pointed out that the Romanian economy is relatively single at present, mainly with grain and its processing industry, petroleum and its chemical industry and vehicle manufacturing as strong export products. Many other products still need to be imported.

Before Romania's territorial expansion, these industries can meet the sustained development of the population and economy. But after the territorial expansion, these industries are somewhat incapable. At present, Romania needs more other industries to meet the sustained development of population and economy.

According to Romania’s latest statistics, its total population has grown rapidly from 10.67 million before the war to 18.64 million. The main factors are Transylvania captured by Romania, Eastern Moldavia (the region has been voted to join Romania), and Hungarian territories east of the Tisza River and east of the Transcarpathian Mountains. (It does not include Galicia, Odessa, etc., which still belong to Ukraine in terms of theory and law.)

In fact, these seized territories currently do not belong to Romania in terms of theory and law. However, everyone from the private sector to the government ignored this, and public opinion consistently declared that the region has become a new country in Romania. This can be seen from the fact that Romanian soldiers unscrupulously expelled the Hungarians from the area. They completely ignored the attitude of the Hungarians.

After the integration of the new territory (currently part of the new territory in Edel's mind), the current proportion of Romanian nationalities is; 76.2% are Romanians, and then 12.6% Hungarians (but this nationality is being driven out, so it will be reduced) ; Then there are 4.1% Bulgarians; 3.4% Ukrainians; the rest are Germans, Slovaks, Poles, Jews, Gypsies, etc.

From the many actions of Romania in these territories, we can see the attitude that it must have for this territory.

In order to fully develop the new territory and let the people in the area feel the dividends given by Romania, Karaturi also suggested that the government organize a geological exploration team to conduct a systematic exploration of the new territory.

In addition, the mining of coal, iron, gold and other minerals that have been discovered in Transylvania should also be invested. However, the coal and iron in this area are of poor quality and are not suitable for industrial use. But for the prosperity of the region, Romania still intends to invest in mining, which can be regarded as full of sincerity to the people of Transylvania.

Edel agreed to Karaturi's suggestion. Let him do it, Romania needs a talented person like him.

In fact, Edel has all eyes on Karaturi, who has been active recently. However, he still supports this thoughtful minister.

Different voices are needed within the government. At present, Prime Minister Bretianu has too much prestige in the government rather than a good thing, and after the victory of this war, he has made the most profit except for himself and a limited number of military personnel. And the war is over, it really needs a different voice from the government.

Edel was thinking about what happened after the war, when an attendant brought a telegram and hurriedly walked to him.

"Your Majesty, this is a telegram from Budapest."
