Bulgarian Empire

Vol 6 Chapter 23: Government in exile

A genius remembers this site address in one second: (Vertex Chinese), the fastest update! No ads! On the Dutch battlefield, the power of the German blitzkrieg shocked the world.

On September 13, 1939, as the sky just started to light up, hundreds of German bombers raided Dutch military camps and airfields.

The Dutch were not surprised by the sudden attack from the sky. As early as after the German-Dutch negotiations failed, they knew that war was about to break out.

Unfortunately, the Dutch government still has illusions about the British, expecting the British to intervene in the actions of the Germans, and there is no immediate national mobilization.

It wasn't until the Germans' war confession came that the Dutch knew they had been tricked by John Bull.

Because the British proposed earlier that the Kingdom of the Netherlands should lend to the Germans, but the Dutch government refused.

Then, under the mediation of the British, the Dutch government and the Germans signed the "Two-State Free Trade Agreement." The Dutch government exported goods to Germany at a low price in exchange for the Germans' safety guarantee.

The British were the witnesses of the treaty, and it was the guarantee of the British that made the Dutch government put down its vigilance against the Germans.

Before the war broke out, the Kingdom of the Netherlands also exported a large amount of grain, rubber, and a series of strategic materials to the Germans at nearly cost.

There is no doubt that they moved the rock and hit their own feet.

The sudden outbreak of war caught the Dutch government off guard, and there was no time to find a backer for itself, and the Kingdom of the Netherlands fell.

From the outbreak to the end of the war, it only took less than a week.

The only battle on a scale was the Battle of Rotterdam, which was the last counterattack of the Dutch. The protagonist of the war was the Marines.

It was a pity that it had no effect. The Battle of Rotterdam only delayed the Germans for one day. There was no accident that the Kingdom of the Netherlands fell.

After the defeat in the Netherlands, Queen Wilhelmina flew to France, and then went to Bulgaria to organize a government in exile.

In this regard, the Germans still did not do everything, otherwise, when the Germans had mastered the air supremacy at the time, it would not be so easy to escape.

This is also a European practice. The king’s job is very valuable. If it is killed, it is not a value, but a big trouble.

The Dutch are dead, and the Belgium next door should not want to be alone. It has naturally become the next target of the German army.

neutral?

Do not joke!

If you are neutral, you can avoid war. Where can war be in this world?

The Belgians' military strength is not weak. In this era, compared to Switzerland, they are a bit stronger. The geographical location determines their tragedy.

How to attack France without hitting them first?

Facts have proved that the German army cannot make a breakthrough from the front. In order to win this war, the Germans have attacked the Netherlands, so naturally they do not care about one more Belgium.

On September 17, 1939, the German government declared war on Belgium and Luxembourg at the same time, and the scale of the world war continued to expand.

"Little Ferdinand don't cry, your face is like dead..."

Ferdinand's words stopped abruptly, how could he curse himself? Isn't this a water in your brain? Is it because your intelligence has dropped?

"Father, don't say me, you didn't get any better back then?" Little Ferdinand complained.

Ferdinand's face sank. Is this revealing his dark history again?

"Little Ferdinand, are you sure that what you just said passed through the brain?" Ferdinand asked with a sneer

"Oh, sorry father, I have been too busy recently, what did I just say?"

Little Ferdinand decisively admitted that he didn't want to make himself uncomfortable, now his troubles were big enough.

At first, he thought it was just acting, there was no problem at all! In less than a week, he was about to collapse.

The crying mother-in-law was received every day in accordance with the diplomatic ceremonies. At first, several ministers of the cabinet were still with them. In less than three days, these people were gone.

Obviously everyone used the excuse to hide from his busy schedule, and he was the emperor who could not escape.

Ministers can not give face to the Kingdom of the Netherlands, that is, Bulgaria does not need to give face to the Kingdom of the Netherlands.

His son-in-law is not good enough, and his mother-in-law is fine, and his queen will be added together to destroy his nerves, making him seem like an unforgivable sinner.

There were also reporters watching from the side that this was a formal diplomatic meeting, and the play had to be performed well, even if it had no effect, there should be no lack of procedures.

"This is just the beginning, you can't stand it anymore, don't forget that I was destroyed by your mother for several years, didn't you come here too?" Ferdinand said gleefully.

"No, can it be the same? Mother just cares about the safety of uncle, she didn't let you go to the muddy waters of the Russian Civil War!

What's more, it hasn't been several years, and it will be back to normal within a week at most.

Now I want to accompany them in acting. Of course, they are really sad, so they can cry, but I don’t feel it. To squeeze my tears, I use pepper! "Little Ferdinand complained

"It doesn't matter. You can choose to get sick and let your son receive them. Don't worry, your son is still a minor. His attitude does not represent Bulgaria's attitude, and the show is over!" Ferdinand thought Thought to say

"Is there any other way? It feels like I was ill by them, and the impact is very bad!" Little Ferdinand frowned and said

"Don't come here, don't I know your kid's mind? You are worried that you will be complained by your wife if you do this, so let me give you this idea?

Don't worry, they are more tired than you in such a scene. Even if they feel sad, do they not feel uncomfortable doing this useless show every day? "Ferdinand said with disdain

"But father, I see Juliana crying very sad, she is in a very bad mood, and she is pregnant with a child, I am afraid she can't stand the stimulation!" Little Ferdinand said with a headache.

"Is this a problem? You can promise them privately to soothe them! As long as it is not promised to the Dutch government, it doesn't matter!" Ferdinand said with a smile

Little Ferdinand nodded, isn't it shameless? When will a politician have a face? This is their required course, any successful emperor is a shameless emperor!

As long as it is not a promise to the Dutch government, it does not matter. Even if his promise is passed out, it can be said that he is coaxing his wife and does not need to bear diplomatic responsibility.

In this regard, Europe is still very tolerant, public to public, private to private. The emperor can also have a personal position, but he cannot speak out publicly when it is against the national interest.

"Well, then I and them will get sick together, let the Dutch government and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs slowly wrestle with you!" Little Ferdinand said with a sigh of relief

"You think too much. Whether the Dutch government can enter the door of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is a question. Don't underestimate the bureaucracy's integrity!" Ferdinand said calmly.

Don't look at diplomats who are usually polite, and think that they are really good at talking. Weak countries without diplomacy are not joking.

The current Dutch government-in-exile has nothing, not even an army. It is unknown whether the colonial government will listen to their orders.

Otherwise, the French will keep them. Where else do they need to go to Bulgaria?

"Father, the Kingdom of the Netherlands has reached the point where it is today, and the Dutch government has most of the responsibilities. Their foreign policy has determined the tragedy now!

It's better to let them feel wronged, lest they don't know the sky and the earth is thick, and they don't know how to use their brains in doing things! "Little Ferdinand said with a sneer

After the end of the First World War, the Dutch government turned to Britain and France in diplomacy. After the conflict between Britain and France broke out in 1926, the Dutch government swayed between them.

Later, after the marriage of the two royal families, the Dutch government added another swing target, but Bulgaria was not very interested in the European continent, so the people-to-people relations between the two sides were good, and the government relations were indeed lukewarm.

With the outbreak of the colonial rebellion in Southeast Asia, the Kingdom of the Netherlands was killed by Mr. Churchill and tens of thousands of soldiers were killed. Anti-British sentiment in the country rose, and the Dutch government turned to the French.

The next two major alliances were established. The Dutch government found that France was isolated. They sensed the danger. In order to avoid being harmed, they decisively chose neutrality.

After choosing neutral, he was fooled by the British again, and dazzled with the Germans.

However, after weighing the pros and cons, they did not immediately join the Western European Union. Instead, they drifted away. Especially after the outbreak of the war, seeing the French single-handedly challenged Germany and Italy to gain the upper hand, they refused to join the Western European Union.

But the Germans were not so easy to talk about. In order to win the war, they simply shamelessly broke the agreement between the two sides and launched a war against the Kingdom of the Netherlands.

It can be said that the foreign policy of the Dutch government after World War I was to dance on steel ropes, and now it has fallen off.

You must know that when the Eastern European Union was established, Ferdinand Jr. also issued an invitation to them. After all, the Kingdom of the Netherlands is the world's main supplier of natural rubber, and it still has a certain value.

However, because their asking price was too high and the price they were willing to pay was too small, the two sides quickly fell apart.

Before the war broke out, the French also sent them an invitation, and the French government was preparing to establish an anti-German line of defense in the Netherlands to improve the overall line of defense.

In order not to be affected by the war, the Dutch government decisively refused. Finally, when the war came, they realized that they had no friends.

The same tragedy as the Kingdom of the Netherlands is Belgium. The Belgian government is like a snake and a rat. It is now being beaten on the ground by the Germans. If it weren't for the French to take action at the last minute, Belgium would be dead.

Even if they are not finished, they are actually worse than the Dutch. Germany and France are fighting fiercely in Belgium, and it is not so easy to tell the winner for a while.

The Germans are weaker than in history, and the French are stronger than in history. With increasing and decreasing, this war is no longer one-sided.

"Your Majesty, the top of the Bulgarian government are willing to see us, don't you think?" Prime Minister Koris said embarrassedly

Queen Wilhelmina frowned and said: "No! In the face of national interests, any personal feelings have to fall behind. Now we have become unwelcome people.

If we go to get rid of others, I am afraid we will not even have the current treatment.

The top priority is that we still have to form a national salvation army as soon as possible. Otherwise, what can I negotiate with others? "

"But Queen, we lack everything right now. There is no way to form an army. Or would you give the colonial government an order for them to form an army?" Koris proposed

Queen Wilhelmina said dissatisfied: "This is not a good suggestion, my Prime Minister, Japan is eyeing the South Seas, and we cannot draw any troops from there.

Besides, do we raise them in Europe? If you put it on the battlefield, it will be over in a week! "

Keris frowned. It was you who made the formation of the army, and you who did not allow the formation of the army. What kind of trick is this?

It is a pity that Queen Wilhelmina is looking for fault. She has long been dissatisfied with the Prime Minister, but unfortunately, even if she is dissatisfied with the system of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, she cannot do anything.

However, there are exceptions to everything. For example, now that there is no prime minister supported by parliament, it is nothing.

In Bulgaria, she, the queen, is the recognized leader of the country. If she wants to, she can let the prime minister go.

As the person directly responsible for the fall of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, she wants to remove the Prime Minister at this time, but without the Parliament stepping up to make trouble, no one can say anything even in the future.

Shouldn't the prime minister be incompetent? The current situation, as a government leader, is not a waste, it is also a waste.

"Your Majesty, now that the government has no money and lost revenue, what can we do if we don't rely on the colony?" Corris asked rhetorically

"That's your problem-Prime Minister, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com originally stored the treasury's gold in London, but you promoted it. Now you should not be responsible for it?" Queen Wilhelmina said with a sneer

Koris understands, this is making him go. And it is not only to dismiss him as prime minister, but also to be responsible for the current situation.

This is politics. The whole country has fallen. How can it be possible that no one has come out to take responsibility for such a big thing?

Is there any other option besides the government cabinet?

The cabinet members are going to end up collectively, and he, the prime minister, is undoubtedly the culprit. I don't know how many **** basins will be buttoned on his head in the future!

Knowing that he knew, Krys was unable to refute that there were too many black spots. He originally wanted to use Bulgaria's power to recover the mainland as soon as possible, and then erase the black history.

However, the queen made it clear that she would not give him this opportunity and was determined to ruin him.

No, now he is ruined. From the attitude of the Dutch in Bulgaria, we can see that in fundraising meetings, the money is not essential, but they are sprayed with blood.

"Then the queen should choose another talent, I don't have the ability to do it!" Corris said with an iron face

"Well, since you are not capable of shouldering this responsibility, then I'll change to another prime minister. I think you have no opinion?" Queen Wilhelmina sneered.

There is no way. Now that Germany is invading the Kingdom of the Netherlands, the British have German allies. If there is a pro-British cabinet, how can they show their attitude to Bulgaria?

The reality has already determined that this government must be pro-guaranteed, otherwise, if you want to get the support of the Bulgarian government, you don't even think about it.

Koris is a fan of the authorities, otherwise he would have thought of this a long time ago, and then change his political position as quickly as possible, let alone keep in touch with the British.
