Bulgarian Empire

A genius remembers the address of this site in one second: (Vertex Chinese), the fastest update! No ads! As the situation becomes increasingly tense, the British are also beginning to assemble their arms.

In 1933, the military expenditure of the British Empire was 350 million pounds;

In 1934, it quickly increased to 680 million pounds;

In 1937, it increased to 898 million pounds;

In 1938, the British military expenditure had increased to 1.092 billion pounds.

Although the value of the British pound has depreciated drastically over the years, this figure is still very impressive.

By 1938, the British military expenditure had reached 14.3% of the gross national product, accounting for 41% of the British fiscal revenue.

In the same year, the British government also submitted a compulsory military service bill to Parliament, but unfortunately it was not passed.

Even so, the British government still opened a military service registration system. Since the bill was not passed, they could only adopt a voluntary registration model.

The British are moving, and other countries are not idle. The craziest thing is Germany and Italy. Military expenditures have exceeded the seven layers of their fiscal revenue.

The French government is also aware of the danger. In the anti-war wave, Congress passed a new armaments bill and plunged into the tide of arms expansion and war preparations.

Bulgaria is of course no exception. The position of world hegemon has not yet been obtained, and the world's top military spending hat has been put on first.

The British mainly develop the navy, with the army and air force as auxiliary. Bulgaria has to take care of the three armies, so military expenditures are naturally higher.

Fortunately, the Bulgarian economy has developed well in recent years, otherwise the war will only be detonated in advance.

From pure data analysis, we all know that the longer the preparation for war, the greater the damage caused in the end, and the more miserable the losers will naturally be.

Ferdinand has the goods on hand, and he is not panicked. You can watch them perform quietly. Anyway, it hinders the speed of the development of nuclear weapons in various countries. Now they don't even have this concept.

Experts in this area have either arrived in Bulgaria or been sent to see God. Everyone knows what uranium element can be used for. It is not something ordinary people can know.

Before the birth of the atomic bomb, even the scientists responsible for making weapons did not know that this thing was so powerful, it can be said that it was a completely unexpected product.

Historically, the Harmanton Project in the United States mobilized more than 100,000 people to participate, and spent more than two billion U.S. dollars in three years to produce an atomic bomb.

These are all textbooks. In fact, the total number of technicians responsible for the research on the atomic bomb project of the Harmanton Project is only a thousand or so, and the rest are naturally other research groups.

Americans are not stupid, how can they pin all their hopes on a weapon? Really think that you can print US dollars, it is not money?

Back then, the gold standard was still on the gold standard, with more than two billion U.S. dollars. Even for the U.S. government, it was an astronomical figure. Once the project failed, how could it be explained to Congress?

In fact, the Harmanton Project, there are a series of projects, the funds are not all congressional appropriations, part of which is social capital.

From an economic point of view, the Harmanton project is also a project with a good return on investment. With regard to the use of nuclear energy, breakthrough progress has been made. After the project is completed, a bunch of laboratories are left.

Ferdinand's investment is not that big. It's not that he has no money to invest, but that it is unnecessary. The Americans had their eyes darkened at the time, and they were casting nets everywhere.

Ferdinand didn't know exactly how to make nuclear weapons. He couldn't believe the information he saw on the Internet, but he still had some ideas.

First, the uranium ore is separated, the rich uranium is selected, and then purified. The purity exceeds 90%, and then nuclear weapons can be manufactured.

How to do it, let the scientists play slowly, so the Bulgarian scientists played for seven years before they came up with the atomic bomb.

This is not because scientists are inefficient. Scientific research often relies on luck. Sometimes one experiment is successful, and more often a thousand experiments still fail.

As Ferdinand blocked this knowledge, only Bulgaria has a heavy water plant in the world, and there will be no competitors in the short term.

"Father, at 9:30 this morning, the German government suddenly declared war on the new Kingdom of Poland. Half an hour later, 300,000 German troops crossed the border and launched an attack on Poland!" Little Ferdinand said gleefully.

Any war on the European continent is a weakening of the power of the old continent, which is in the interests of Bulgaria.

Otherwise, they had already started fighting with the British, so why wait for the outbreak of the Continental War?

"This is a matter of time and night. Now it depends on how long the Poles can last. I hope they can last for a month so that the French have time to prepare!" Ferdinand smiled slightly.

"Father, there is no need to be so pessimistic? No matter how weak the new Kingdom of Poland is, it won't be finished so soon, right?

With the advantage of the Polish cavalry, it is not easy to delay the war period for two to three months? "Little Ferdinand said puzzledly

Both of them are not optimistic about the Poles, the controversial point is just the question of how long the Poles can support.

"It depends on whether the Poles are as brave as they brag. If everyone in the Polish army is not afraid of death, and the commander is not too stupid, it will be no problem to drag it for a year or a half.

The quality of the German army has declined drastically now, far from being as sturdy as in World War I. The Treaty of Versailles still worked! "Ferdinand said with a sigh

After the First World War, the Treaty of Versailles restricted the development of the German military, even though the German government changed the position and trained its soldiers as low-level officers.

But they are all theoretical, because of financial reasons, they can't even guarantee regular training, all aircraft and tanks are gone, and there is a serious shortage of technical arms.

In these short years, the German Army has expanded nearly eightfold. There may be no shortage of officers for the time being, but there has been a gap in the technical arms.

If the Germans are rich and wealthy, this is not a big problem. The big deal is to feed them with ammunition and fight a few battles on the battlefield.

The German army has not reached its peak condition, but the problem is that the opposite Polish army is worse? What age is this, I can’t afford to play with planes and tanks, so I ran to play with cavalry.

If the Polish commander was smart, he would not use the cavalry to confront the Germans. This is why Ferdinand is not optimistic about the Polish army. In history, the Poles have created a record of using cavalry to chop tanks!

Although it only happened in a small battle, it also exposed the command ability of the Polish army.

If they want to die together, the Polish army puts the cavalry on the frontal battlefield, it is better to go directly to the cavalry stud and destroy the German mainland.

Come a war that you fought you, I fought mine, and it is estimated that the Third Reich will cry.

"Father, do you think France will take action? Now it is a good opportunity. The main German army is still in Poland. The French stabbed in the back and they will return without success!" Little Ferdinand asked concerned.

"I don't know, it depends on whether the French politicians value personal interests or national interests more!

Based on the current situation in France, if anyone takes the initiative to provoke a war, the people will let someone get out of the way and have to bear a lifetime of infamy.

What do you think of such an unselfish politician? "Ferdinand asked back

Little Ferdinand was speechless, the French political system, want to start a war, not one person can decide.

There may be individual politicians who can sacrifice their own interests for the benefit of the country, but most people are just fighting for their own interests.

"Don't think so much. Whether the French send troops or not, war will break out anyway. It's nothing more than a matter of time.

Are the Italians also ready? The Germans can still ask them for help. Even though they don't have much combat power, they can still do it if they hold a part of the French army?

Coupled with the support of the British, this war cannot be ended in a short time, unless the French compromise, the probability of this happening is almost zero!

I'm just wondering, will the Italians die and attack Switzerland? "Ferdinand said with a smile

"Father, no matter how Italians are, they are better than Switzerland? As long as they are willing, it shouldn't be a problem to conquer Switzerland!" Little Ferdinand said in confusion.

"Of course, I have no doubt about this. No matter how good the Swiss are, they only have a population of more than four million, and their overall national strength is less than a quarter of that of Italy.

But do you think that with the combat power of the Italian army, after they conquer Switzerland, do you still have the ability to attack France?

Without the Italians, is it possible for the Western European Union to overwhelm France in the short term? "Ferdinand said with a sneer

This is the crux of the problem. Little Ferdinand already knows what to do. It is a good choice to bring the enemy into a dead end.

...

On the day the German army invaded Poland, the French government carried out a national mobilization. French President Albert Le Brun issued an ultimatum to Germany and ordered the German army to withdraw from Poland within 48 hours.

"Your Excellency, the Congress has rejected our proposal to send troops to Germany. From now on we will be reduced to spectators!" Prime Minister Daraday said with a wry smile

"There is no surprise. Even if we want to send troops, we may not be able to interfere in the actions of the Germans. Our old neighbor, the Italians, have also mobilized.

What do the Spaniards say, don’t they plan to ally with us? "Alber Le Brun asked with concern.

"No, on the contrary, the Spaniards agreed to form an alliance with us, but only in secret, and they only assume part of their ally obligations.

The Spanish government promised that even if the war broke out, they would guarantee our supplies! "Daraday frowned and said

If France and Spain conclude a military alliance, then even if it is against the three countries of Britain, Germany, and Italy, they will not lose ground on land, but the Spaniards will not give their all!

"Damn it, these gangsters! Strategic supplies, do we still need them?

Once the war breaks out, the Bulgarians will provide us! "Alber Le Brun said angrily

Everyone is not a fool, as long as the Bulgarians do not want them to compromise with the Western European Union, once the war breaks out, Bulgaria must guarantee their logistics supplies.

"Your Excellency, the British once again assured us that they will restrain the Germans and will not attack us!" Daradi said with a sneer.

"What's the use of such nonsense, other than fooling the people outside?

Even if we join the Western European League now, we will inevitably get a knife, unless I can give up all the territory acquired in World War I, which is obviously impossible!

I think we should do something now, otherwise we will be scapegoats in the future! "Alber Le Brun said coldly

"Maybe we can give a war mobilization speech. UU reading www.uukanshu.com is now being scolded a bit. It's better than a war broke out. It's better to come out again!" Daraday thought about it and said.

"Okay, then we will do it together, the big deal is to get out in advance!" Albert Le Brun said indifferently

Now, unlike in history, the disaster can't be done anymore. As long as the Germans hit the Eastern European Union, they will soon be beaten back to their prototypes.

Moreover, whether it is from a point of interest or from a political point of view, the best choice for Germans is France.

The French government was kidnapped by national hatred, so why not the German government?

The French are now in a much better state than in history. At least they did not jump into the giant pit of the Maginot Line. It was not that the French didn't want it, but they didn't have time to repair the line.

The international situation is changing too fast. France, which used to reap the benefits of both sides in Britain and Bulgaria, suddenly became disgusted by everyone, and there was no time for them to react.

Of course, the current situation is not too bad. The French still occupy a strategically important position, and the defense line is pushed directly to the Rhine, where they can defend along the river.

Without repairing the earth-shattering line of defense, the French government invested this part of the money in the army, and the combat effectiveness of the French army has been significantly improved compared with the same period in history.

This is also the confidence of President Albert Le Brun. From the perspective of strength, the French army is still above Germany, and he still does not persuade him to beat the Germans.

...

The inefficiency of the republican system has revealed its evil results. If President Albert Le Brun wants to mobilize for war, the opposition parties will come out to sing the opposite.

Anyway, as an opposition party, you can just say it and you don’t need to be responsible for it. If they don’t oppose the government, how can they be called an opposition party?
