"My chief of staff, you won't come to ask for an increase in war funding, will you?"

As soon as Admiral Pule stepped through the door, he heard Edel's words. This made him startled for a while, but he reacted immediately and replied: "Your Majesty, if you can allow the government to allocate more funds to us, of course I will be very happy."

Edel heard what the Chief of Staff had to say, and said with a smile: "This is unlikely."

Preshan thought of the Prime Minister Bretianu and the Minister of Finance that he met on the road, and he understood a little bit. Mostly it was the Prime Minister's blows from the king that made the king feel a little bit grievances. He also knew some news and heard that the intelligence agency had made a fortune from Russia. Given the prime minister's character, it would be strange not to make a fortune. Recently, there have been some reports from the government that the prime minister can hardly sleep due to funding issues.

But regardless of his business, he is already busy enough in the current war to have no time to care about government issues. This is the job of the prime minister.

When Edel heard that it was not about money, he let go and asked, "What's the matter this time?"

Facing the king’s question, Admiral Prieshan replied: “It’s about preparing for the battle of Hungary.”

Preyshan was a little afraid that Edel would not understand, and continued to explain: "At present, we have driven the Allied forces out of the country. Now the Allied Powers require us to continue to attack the Austro-Hungarian Empire. This is also in line with our needs, so I will Prepared this battle plan."

After speaking, Preshan took out a document from his body and placed it in front of Edel.

Edel also knew what Admiral Pule said. The main reason for this is that Germany and Austria made the last wave of offensive in order to avoid the defeat of the war.

In January of this year (two months earlier than in the original history, this is also because the signing of the peace treaty between Russia and Germany and Austria was advanced), Germany was mobilizing elites from the east to the west and planned to make the last one. Wave of effort. And because of this, Austria-Hungary launched a new offensive that did not exist in the original time and space.

Among them, the Austro-Hungarian army, under the planning of its Emperor Karl I, launched an offensive against Italy with a strength of 800,000 troops. He successively won the Piave River, Udine and other places, and his soldiers went all the way to Venice.

In order to preserve this important city, the British, French and Italian fleets broke through the mine array deployed by the Austro-Hungarian Navy in the Adriatic at the cost of losing five cruisers and three former dreadnoughts. The Austro-Hungarian Navy faced the overwhelmingly superior Allied fleet and did not dare to leave the port for interception. In the army, facing the desperate fight of the Austro-Hungarian army, Britain and France urgently reinforced the strength of eight divisions to Italy. The Italian Army is also a rare hemorrhagic side, concentrated most of the domestic forces here to fight against Austria-Hungary. In the end, facing the union of the land and the sea, Austria-Hungary failed to capture Venice, the city of water.

The spring offensive launched by the Germans was planned by Ludendorff in January. Using the penetrating assault tactics that shined brightly on the Eastern Front, they launched an offensive against the defensive British forces in the Somme area. Its main purpose is still to seize Paris, the capital of France, and force it to surrender. In fact, he was prepared for Germany's attack on Britain and France, but he did not anticipate the use of its new tactics. During the three-month spring offensive (shorter than in history), Britain and France were pushed 60 kilometers by the Germans with more than 200,000 casualties, and finally prevented the Germans from fulfilling their strategic goals.

After encountering German and Austrian desperate fights one after another, Britain, France and Italy are extremely eager to put pressure on Germany and Austria. On the Western Front, the United States has already reached 300,000 troops in France, and it can also transport 60,000 people from the country to France every month (Because the loss of Britain and France is greater than in history, the United States has accelerated the transportation of troops, which is 10,000 more than in history.) .

After negotiations between France and Washington, these American soldiers were directly arranged to feel the atmosphere of the war on the front line, and they will also participate in the subsequent counterattack against Germany.

On the Austro-Hungarian side, due to the heavy casualties of the Italians, the counterattack against Austro-Hungary can only find a way from other directions. As Romania, which has performed very well so far, it has become their goal. Therefore, after the Allied Powers regained the lost ground in Admiral Courtois, they immediately asked Romania to launch an offensive against Austria-Hungary to contain its power.

The requirements of the Allied Powers are also in line with Romania's next combat goal, and it is also Edel's goal. He has no reason to disagree. In his view, the most insecure territory promised to Romania after World War I was the area from the border of Transylvania to the Tisza River.

In the original time and space, in order to compensate Romania for being beaten so badly by the Allies, or to defend against the Soviet Union, the Allies assigned Biher and Timish in this territory to Romania. In this time and space, Romania has participated in the war for a short time, and it has made a lot of war money, and importantly, it is much stronger than in history. It is no longer necessary to supplement the strength too much to prevent the penetration of Soviet Russia. Therefore, Edel believes that to avoid long nights and dreams, we must take the first place in the war.

This will also leave enough room for Romania to operate. Whether it is for a future referendum to conceal the public, or to make things difficult for others on the issue of spoils, it is necessary to lay a solid foundation in advance. Moreover, there are too many Hungarians in this area. If they don't use the part of them to be expelled during the war, it is inevitable that they will be left behind in the future.

In Edel's view, Romania, which has acquired new territories after the war, will become a multi-ethnic country. In addition to Romanians, there will also be Poles, Ukrainians, Germans, Hungarians, Bulgarians, etc. Among them, the Hungarians who stay in Romania will become a hidden danger that is difficult to deal with because of historical reasons.

As for the Poles, Edel intends to discuss with the future Polish government and return the people who are willing to go to Poland to live in their tribe. I believe that with the Polish recognition of the establishment of the new country, there will be a large number of people living in this country.

The Ukrainians don’t have such a good life. The nation that has been suppressed in the awakening of this nation will continue to be suppressed next. And Edel has already considered the strategy of dividing them, mixing sand in the area first, and emigrating many Romanians in the past. Then the taxes in the area will be increased a lot, and then partial reductions will be given to how many Romanian words and words are learned, so that these Ukrainians can consciously develop the habit of learning Romanian.

And its newspaper broadcasts will greatly increase the usage rate of Romanian language and Latin. As for children to be better, the education textbooks must also use Romanian Latin, and the spoken language must also learn Romanian. After two or three generations, these people will be assimilated. As for the unbearable, they can go to the great Soviet Russia to feel it, and immediately feel Edel's kindness, at least not let them starve to death. Whether to stick to tradition or choose bread, they will make a sensible decision. This is all based on the experience of Edel in his previous life, which inspires him a lot.

As for the possibility of resistance, Edel is not afraid as long as he does not get the support of external powers. Soviet Russia would not move its stones and even smash its own feet. Britain and France still need Romania to watch Soviet Russia and would not do such stupid things.

As for the Bulgarians, this is not a problem at the moment. The sweetness of the economy has overwhelmed these people who are still in Romania. These people are unwilling to let them return to Bulgaria, which is suffering now.

As for a small number of Germans, this is not a problem at all.

As for many territories still in the hands of Germany and Austria or their puppet government, this is not a problem at all. As long as the two puppet governments get these territories from their hands after the defeat of Germany and Austria, they will have an armed march ~lightnovelpub.net~ and dare to resist, let them know how powerful the hundreds of thousands of troops have been tempered by the war. This is Darwinism, big fish eat small fish, small fish eat dried shrimps.

It is precisely because of this that Edel now needs to do his part to defeat Austria-Hungary. He picked up Preeshan's combat plan and looked at it. It was intended to take the Transylvanian Group Army as the main body, and then add several standing divisions from the Moldavian Group Army to supplement it.

It will also give several heavy artillery regiments and flying wing technical arms to enhance their combat capabilities. Edel also saw Hoffman's armored brigade being sent to the group army. It seems that Pule Mountain intends to try its power on the flat Hungarian Great Plains, and I hope these Marza people will like it.

In addition, Preshan will also dispatch Lieutenant General Fereit, who has performed well in this war, to Admiral Salamik as his deputy. The battle plan is also aimed at taking the territory east of the Tisza River, which is also Edel's most satisfied. After reading the battle plan, Edel signed his name, and said to Admiral Pule: "This plan is very good, so let's do it."

"Okay, Your Majesty."

In this way, Romania's new combat plan was decided in the conversation between the two.
