Chapter 516： Germany joins the League of Nations

Although there was a tear in diplomacy and even targeted actions against Romania in trade import and export, in the end, the shares of Illuo remained unchanged.

Because Romania exports less from the UK and France, it can't make it feel distressed. At best, it can only be regarded as a minor loss.

At present, Romania's exports are mainly in Italy and Spain in Southern Europe, Germany in Central Europe, Poland in Eastern Europe, and countries around the Balkans. For Britain and France exports are only a small share, and to put it bluntly, Romania’s products are not as good as its own. As for the Far East and the Americas, the share is not too large.

Speaking of the Far East, Edel's new friend sent him a telegram. I hope I can hire a retired general from Romania as my personal adviser to help him in the military (historically, he was a German lieutenant colonel, but now I am a friend of Edel, so I naturally start from an acquaintance).

Faced with this Far East’s request to meet new friends, Edel naturally couldn’t refuse. Not to mention that the Far East has a large enough market, and various strategic resources alone cannot make Edel ignore the requirements of future leaders in the region.

So Edel recruited the chief of the general staff, Admiral Fereit, and asked for suitable candidates.

"I don't know what your Majesty has for this."

Fereit has no reason to disagree with the dispatch of a retired general as a private military adviser. He also has some understanding of the current situation in the Far East. This can be regarded as the leader of the organization's top rankings. Helping his industry helps Romania expand its influence in the region.

Moreover, according to his understanding, the military industry in the Far East is poor and weak, and the demand for ordnance in the region is unusually large. Romania produces German weapons that the region likes. Selling weapons in the future can also help the country's military industry.

Therefore, Admiral Fereit naturally agreed with this, and the only request was to ask King Edel what he would like to send generals, so that he could send retired generals upon request. Because the generals also have different focuses on their abilities, some have a deep understanding of battle command, some are proficient in scattered attacks by small groups of troops, and some generals are known for training soldiers and managing logistics. It all depends on what general Edel thinks is appropriate to send.

After thinking about the habits of this Far Eastern friend, Edel said. "Be proficient in strategy and tactics, and be able to give answers to military questions based on the national conditions, and the interpersonal relationship needs to be handled well. Even if the plan is rejected, a new plan can be quickly come up."

Edel's words made Fereit a little dry. Where is the choice of a personal adviser, but the chief of staff. So he couldn't help but say. "Your Majesty, according to your request, only Marshal Preeshan and I are suitable candidates."

After listening to the Chief of Staff, Edel realized that he was asking too much. However, he sincerely hopes to increase the military strength of future generations of the motherland so that it can retain more strength in the future catastrophe. Although he knows that this party has many problems, the people who are suffering are innocent.

"Then there are enough generals who are proficient in strategy and tactics, and who handle interpersonal relationships well."

Edel lowered his requirements, and he attached great importance to the handling of interpersonal relationships. Handling it well will not only expand Romania’s influence, but also benefit the country (such as the future General von Seckert, and vice versa, General Stilwell).

This time Edel lowered his requirements, making Feleit much easier. He made a choice in his mind. First of all, the rank should not be too high, so as not to attract too much attention, those generals can be ruled out. Then you need to find a major general, and it is really hard to find a major general who meets Edel's requirements and has to retire from active service.

Suddenly he thought, and a person's name flashed quickly in his mind, Major General Mordelk, the former commander of the Eighteenth Division. The major general had fought in the Balkan Wars and World War I before, and he performed well. Originally there was hope of upgrading to the next level, but later retired from active service due to physical reasons.

Later, under the care of his family. Recovered. Originally, when Admiral Fereit planned to re-enter him into the army, but now he needs the general as a personal adviser, and that is him.

"Major General Mordelk, the former commander of the Eighteenth Division, meets your majesty's requirements."

Edel seemed to have some impressions facing the name Fereit uttered.

"Then it is decided that it is him."

Major-general Mordelk, who had returned to the army, was dispatched to the Far East.

After sending off Fereit, the head of guard Horia hurriedly walked in with a telegram.

"Your Majesty, urgent call from Geneva."

Edel took the telegram and saw that the League of Nations had just made a resolution, and Germany was allowed to join the League of Nations.

Perhaps people in the future will sneer at this international alliance. Because after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Japan used all the decisions made against the League of Nations to wipe its ass.

This is something that needs to be explained. That is because Britain and France have limited military intervention capabilities in the Far East and the relationship between Nanjing and Britain and France at that time was not too friendly, and Britain and France were greatly injured in the world economic crisis. Didn't you see that the Italian leader also had to wait until the 1930s before he could do something in Ethiopia? At present, the leading League of Nations, Britain and France, are more powerful in Europe, so joining the League of Nations is also the most critical step for Germany to step out of its status as a defeated country and become a normal country.

But this step is not easy at all. Before, in 1920, the first meeting of the League of Nations was first proposed by Switzerland and Argentina to allow Germany to join the League, but it was rejected by France.

The reason is that the League of Nations was established under the premise that the whole of Europe paid a huge price, and Germany, as a defeated country, could not become a member of the League of Nations. Moreover, the diplomatic situation at that time was very unfavorable for Germany, and the resistance to Germany's joining the League of Nations was beyond imagination.

It was only on the eve of the Genoa meeting that Germany and the Soviet Union established diplomatic relations that eased the situation. Because Britain and France discovered that not allowing Germany to join will draw them into the arms of the Soviets. At this time, with the exception of France, other countries have changed their attitudes towards Germany's joining the League of Nations.

When the Ruhr crisis broke out, the deadly France suffered a lot of diplomatic losses, and Germany received a large number of sympathetic voices in diplomacy. This allowed Germany to join the League of Nations with an excellent environment. However, the obstruction from France still exists that cannot be ignored.

Finally, in 1926, in order to cope with the smooth implementation of the Dawes plan, the League of Nations made the decision to allow Germany to join.

After all, Britain and France want to use Germany to become a normal country carrot and let Germany continue to pay indemnities. However, Germany, which is gradually regaining its strength in the future, will prevent Britain and France from stealing chickens. The reason for all this is, in the final analysis, the money.
