Romanian Eagle

Chapter 400: gap

"Prime Minister, thanks for your hard work. This time we can achieve such a fruitful result, and you have an irreplaceable role."

Inside the palace, Edel read the Trianon Treaty written in French, Hungarian, and Romanian with the ink incense, while talking to the Prime Minister.

"The outcome of the negotiations depends on the performance of the army on the battlefield and the support of the people in this war. And I just brought back what should have belonged to Romania."

The Prime Minister is as humble as always.

Although the Prime Minister is very humble, but Edel will not forget his credit. In addition to the results of the negotiations, the Prime Minister has stabilized the situation in the country and provided sufficient material support for the military. This is also a huge credit. After all, two thousand years ago, Liu Bang said that Xiao He deserves the first credit.

As for Romania, the Trianon Treaty is far more important than the Versailles Treaty and other treaties, and it can be regarded as its greatest achievement in this war. Therefore, to Prime Minister Bretianu who has been negotiating in France, it should be said that he has worked hard.

Prime Minister Bretianu, who has lost more than ten catties in France, can afford it.

So when the Prime Minister and his party returned to China, Edel hosted a welcome banquet for them. And publicly praised the negotiating delegation for its contribution to Romania's fruitful results.

And at this banquet, Edel also revealed his tone. The royal family will give out aristocratic seats to outstanding contributors for those who have contributed to Romania's acquisition of new territories. Edel's words aroused the hearts of everyone present at the time.

As we all know, after the establishment of the Kingdom of Romania, the Hohenzollern family has been very stingy in distributing noble titles. During the time of Edel's father, Carol I, Romania had entrusted less than twenty nobles. Among them was the Tenth War between Turkey and Russia, which gave Romania complete independence. (In this war, Romania entrusted eleven nobles)

After Edel came to power, Romania never entrusted nobles, the Second Balkan War and Edel's enthronement, these two events are considered to be very likely to be enshrined. So many people think that Edel is very stingy towards the entrustment of nobles, and they don't know what conditions are needed to withhold the noble title from his hands.

In fact, these people's speculations have wronged Edel. The real reason why he was so stingy was that the influence of his later memories did not favor the aristocracy. In his heart, most aristocrats are dependent on society to absorb nutrients. And because he was the heir to the kingdom when he was born, he underestimated the aspirations of the ordinary class for nobility and nobility during this period.

But fortunately now, with the help of this war victory, Edel decided to open up the nobility title. However, despite the opening of the nobility title, it is extremely demanding for the distribution. Edel's purpose is to make it and honor to complement each other, in order to stimulate the Romanian people's most aspirations for him. In addition, they have given great credit to some people who have not been promoted. For example, Admiral Pule is equal to the head of Bretianu, such a character.

Edel put down the Trianon Treaty after reading, and continued to the Prime Minister: "The territory is laid down, and then it needs to be digested into a solid foundation for the kingdom. At this point, the government needs to be adequately prepared for this. ."

"Your Majesty, please rest assured that the government made plans for the new territory last year and will not let the territories that the army has taken so hard to become an unstable factor."

Prime Minister Bretianu has enough confidence in this regard. Because since last year, the government has begun training officials who understand Hungarian, Polish, Czech, Ukrainian and Russian. The government gathers these officials for training, mainly to train them to deal with ethnic issues, respond to religious disputes, and more importantly, monitor local dissatisfaction. For those suspicious elements who wantonly spread dissatisfaction with the government and throbbing ethnic opposition, these government officials have sufficient power to deal with, even if they cause local ethnic conflicts.

After all, this is the beginning of the twentieth century, a period when nationalism prevailed, rather than an era when Notre Dame in the 21st century.

These officials are carefully selected by the government, and each of them is an all-rounder of the local government with outstanding ability, high political consciousness, and who knows how to mediate social sentiments. And there is no political taint, and at the same time, he has his own opinions on government work in multi-ethnic regions. And for the multi-ethnic issues in the new territories, the government also focused on the methods to deal with these issues for them.

Among them, for the Hungarian nation, it is mainly to squeeze its living space and force it to leave the local area. This is also because the relationship between the Hungarians and other local ethnic groups is relatively tense and has a lot to do with it. The main reason is also that the Hungarians set a target to let other peoples vent their inner emotions, which is also conducive to Romania's rule.

For the Poles where Galicia is located, Romania is another way to deal with it. The main thing is to open the immigration channel with Poland, and even acquiesce in the Polish government to send people to mobilize these people to immigrate to Poland. For the newly born Poland, it is a good choice to introduce its own people from Galicia to enrich Lower Silesia and West Prussia when Romania is stronger than itself.

As for other ethnic groups such as Ukrainians and Czechs, as long as they don't make trouble, the Romanian government does not have too many policies to deal with them. In a word, when a good citizen treats you as a citizen.

After the training is completed, these officials will be sent to different regions in batches based on their performance and ability. The main basis is that for areas that need to be cleaned, officials with outstanding capabilities and tough styles will be sent, while officials with soft methods will be sent to areas that need to be assimilated. They become the backbone of the government's ruling power in the new territory and make the greatest contribution to the new territory.

"I believe in the government's ability. In addition to ethnic issues, geological exploration work in the new territory cannot be relaxed."

Edel's thinking turned quickly. The moment before he was still discussing ethnic issues, the next moment he talked about geological exploration. Because he had some impressions before, saying that there are more mineral resources in Transylvania and Transcarpathia, and for the current Romania, mineral resources are a booster for Romania's economy. In the past, in addition to food in Romania, only oil could be used. (Potassium is a matter after getting Transylvania, and the mineral resources in this area are not rich, as long as it is stone and gold mines are not bad)

Edel turned fast, and Prime Minister Bretianu answered quickly.

"In this regard, our government has prepared. At present, in addition to the four geological exploration teams we prepared ourselves, we have also combined with Bucharest University, Iasi University and other schools to form two more teams. New territory."

"not enough."

After hearing what the Prime Minister said, Edel knew that he was only focusing on the Transylvania, the east of the Tisza River and the east of the Transcarpathian Mountains, which he had acquired so far, which was far from enough. In later generations, Ukraine was not only a country with superior agricultural conditions, but also a country with large resources, otherwise it would not be qualified as a heavy industrial base of the Soviet Union. Later generations of Western Ukraine were not well-known for their resources, and it was also based on the fact that Eastern Ukraine was too rich.

"At present, the territory of Ukraine where our troops are stationed is also secretly sent for exploration."

Obviously Edel had his idea here.

"This is Ukraine's land, so it's not very good for us to explore."

Edel's words shocked Bretianu, and if the exploration of resources secretly in neighboring countries is exposed, it will be very serious.

"Don't be afraid, there are our garrisons in the local area, so let them send troops to protect the exploration team in the name of training~lightnovelpub.net~ It is obvious that Edel is the bastard, and he is determined to explore the resources of neighboring countries.

Seeing that his king has to explore neighboring countries regardless of his diplomatic reputation.

"Your Majesty, please consider this matter carefully."

The Prime Minister was a little unhappy, after all, this is detrimental to the face of the kingdom.

"I have considered it. Just follow the way I said."

Faced with the king's arbitrarily and even tough attitude, Bretianu felt a little uncomfortable.

"His Majesty……"

"Go ahead."

After Edel finished speaking, he waved his hand, causing the Prime Minister to swallow the words abruptly.

Seeing the prime minister leaving behind, Edel didn't know what he was thinking.
