Edel has nothing to stop what happened in Ukraine. But for Western Ukraine, which is still occupied by Romania, he does not intend to give up at all. At this time, a piece of information was sent to him.

"You mean the chief head of the Ukrainian government has fled to Western Ukraine?"

Milock, the intelligence chief who was questioned, answered Edel's question.

"Yes, Your Majesty. We have learned the information so far. At present, President Korbachev of Ukraine has gone to Odessa, while Prime Minister Morakov has returned to his hometown of Vinnytsia, and President of Parliament Miklar has In Lviv."

While listening to Millock's narration, Edel quickly figured its position in his mind.

These three are really interesting, each occupying three important cities in Western Ukraine. Needless to say Odessa, as the largest port city in the Black Sea region, its importance need not be said. Vinnytsia is the food processing center of the region. Its beet sugar industry has always been very famous and the region is also relatively affluent. Lviv, on the other hand, is on the main road of transportation and business is prosperous. However, the majority of Poles in this area is not a suitable place to exert the influence of the Ukrainian government.

"How could Miklar go to Lviv?"

Millock heard Edel’s doubts, so he explained: "Your Majesty, we didn’t understand it, but later we learned that his grandmother was Polish and an aunt married a little nobleman in Lviv. A little influence in the local area."

Now that the explanation is clear, it seems that it intends to use these resources for its own benefit.

Edel looked at the intelligence and asked: "Have you been in contact with them so far?"

"Not yet. We only know their whereabouts, but we don't know what your Majesty means. So we dare not call the door to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings in the future."

Edel stood up and thought for a while and said, "Then you send someone to contact us, I believe they should be psychologically prepared for our visit."

Millock answered Edel's request and immediately replied: "Yes, Your Majesty."

Fearing that Milok didn't understand it, Edel continued to preach: "This visit is mainly to test their attitude and views on Romania."

"Yes."

After Edel sent Milok away, he came to a map of Romania hung in front of him. This picture is different from the current market. In addition to assigning the newly acquired territory to Romania, the West Ukraine currently occupied by it is also covered with a conspicuous blue color, which makes people notice the difference at a glance.

Standing in front of the map, Edel muttered to himself after looking at it for a long time: "It looks like it can't be delayed."

Many things need the government to cooperate, so the Prime Minister must first know about it.

After Edel made up his mind, he called a guard: "Invite the Prime Minister, I need to discuss with him if I have something."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

About an hour later, Prime Minister Bretianu rushed to the palace.

"Your Majesty, the guard said you have something to look for me."

Edel nodded and replied: "Yes, Your Excellency Prime Minister."

After answering one sentence, Edel asked about him. "I don't know what you think about Soviet Russia's occupation of Kiev?"

How I look at it, of course, is sitting in a chair and watching. Prime Minister Bretianu, who was so busy with many things as the newly occupied territories, appeasement, and so on, has always paid little attention to the Soviet occupation of Kiev. After complaining about his king in his heart, Prime Minister Bretianu sorted out the language, intending to repeat the words he had read before.

Wait, the Soviet Union occupied the capital of Ukraine, and Romania occupied the territory of Ukraine. For a moment, the veteran Prime Minister grasped the crux of the problem, and his own king was probably looking at the West Ukrainian territory currently occupied by Romania.

The prime minister, who was already in his mind, immediately resisted his plan to fool around with nonsense. He immediately thought in his mind, how good would it be for the kingdom to annex Western Ukraine?

The benefits are of course great. West Ukraine is rich in land and products, which is very conducive to farming. There are also many mineral resources, including coal, iron, manganese, nickel, titanium, mercury, graphite and other mineral resources. Although they are not as good as the East Uzbek region, they are more than comparable to Romania.

Moreover, the area has a large population. According to a survey in Romania, there are currently 40,000 people of all ethnic groups. However, the main ethnic group is the Ukrainian ethnic group, accounting for 71% of the total population, while the second largest ethnic group, the Polish ethnic group, accounts for 17% of the total population. They are mainly concentrated in several surrounding areas such as Lviv. Other ethnic groups such as Russians, Czechs, Romanians, Hungarians, Gypsies, and Jews account for only 12% of the population.

In addition, Western Ukraine currently occupied by Romania has 160,000 square kilometers of land. Basically, about half of the plain terrain is black land, which is completely suitable for development. This kind of high-quality land, which country does not want to own it.

The only shortcoming is that no matter who wins the Russian civil war, the territorial conflict with Romania in the future is not small, and it is likely to trigger war between the two countries. The Prime Minister feels a little gloomy when thinking of Russia's huge size. No matter how you look at it, Romania and Russia are a bit too far apart.

Thinking of this, Prime Minister Bretianu's eager heart at first slowly cooled.

Edel looked at the prime minister's hesitant expression, already guessing his thoughts in his heart.

"My Prime Minister, are you worried about the future Russian government?"

Faced with the king’s inquiry, Bretianu told the truth: “Yes, Your Majesty. I am a little worried about the future Russian government. After all, the West Ukraine region has not been our territory for a long time, and the region lacks sufficient Romanian people to live. The basis for this. In terms of theory and law, we seem to lack basis."

After hearing the Prime Minister’s explanation, the lover smiled and pointed out his state of mind.

"I don't think you lack basis, and you have some worries about Russia."

Edel’s words did not dispel the Prime Minister’s concerns. Instead, he opened his mouth and said: "Yes, Your Majesty. Don’t look at the fierce Russian civil war. But its population is large and its territory is rich in resources. As long as the government’s capabilities are not bad in the future, , We will be very stressed."

Look at who has conquered Russia in history, not a single one. Napoleon, who fought the invincibles all over Europe, stumbled in Russia. Britain and France made great efforts in the Crimean War, only to cut off Russia's paws reaching Istanbul, and they failed to take advantage of the Russian town. The Russo-Japanese War, which was in the far east, would cost Russia half its life without transportation. Even so, it just dispelled the idea of ​​obtaining an ice-free port in the Far East.

In the future, if he is at war with Russia, he does not think that Britain and France will help Romania to resist its huge army. So the Prime Minister’s concerns are very reasonable.

The Prime Minister’s concerns were actually correct, but Edel was unable to explain the importance of Ukraine to Romania. This is an important part of Romania becoming the world's powers in the future. If Ukraine is missing, Romania will not have a place in the seats of the powers in the future.

This is a world power in later generations, and the territory of the population is getting bigger and bigger. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com This is also why the European Union emerged in later generations. The European countries felt powerless and were forced to hold a group for warmth. Otherwise, according to the current European territory and population, except for Russia, the existence of other countries is getting lower and lower. Even the African military police, France, only dared to dominate in front of Uncle Black. Ask him to change places, and his set will immediately stop working.

So thinking about this, the Eder people feel that time is not waiting for me. He still insisted: "West Ukraine is too important to Romania. We can't give up this good opportunity."

"But what about Russia in the future?"

The Prime Minister’s question, Edel replied firmly: “In the future, Russia will be strong, don’t we not develop. Whether we can keep the territorial security in the future depends on strength. If there is no strength, Eastern Moldavia will also be spit out. ."

Edel thought for a while and continued: "You should treat it as a buffer for East Moldavia in the future. I have decided that we must win West Ukraine."

In history, Romania did not keep the East Moldavia region. There is no strength in a word, even if there is no use of reasoning, after all, this world relies on fists to make sense.
