Chapter 137: , Negotiation, siege (plus)

Bulgaria’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, according to reason, argued: "The armistice agreement has not been signed, and the two countries are still at war. Our stopping the offensive has shown that Bulgaria has a peace-loving attitude!

But it is impossible to provide the enemy with a chance to restore strength! Unless the war is over, the blockade cannot be over! "

Alexander I, far from Belgrade, is about to collapse now! From the beginning of the negotiations to the present, he has suppressed five rebellions in just over a week!

is wrong, maybe not a rebellion! In the case of extreme lack of supplies, the people rushed to riots in order to compete for living supplies!

Since the siege of the Bulgarian army, the price of goods in the city has started to soar, and it is now dozens of times higher than before the war!

The capitalists did not have the idea of ​​sharing difficulties with the government, and they all refused to accept the dinar! It's okay for the rich. They were prepared before, and there is always some foreign exchange or gold and silver, and now they can barely survive!

This is a bitter to the working class. Unlike ordinary citizens, they still have some food reserves at home in the city!

Working alone in the factory, food and lodging are in the factory, and the household belongings for cooking are not owned by everyone, so what is the food reserve!

As soon as Belgrade was besieged, the factory was shut down, and the capitalists themselves had suffered losses, so naturally they would not care about their food!

The few dinars in his hand are now almost the same as papyrus, so they can’t be spent! Under the threat of hunger, robbery and theft are everywhere, and the crime rate in Belgrade has increased!

Of course, these are all minor problems. Serbia is not an industrial country. Most of the few workers in Belgrade are mobilized into the army!

There is not much left, it is still the real old, weak, sick and disabled, who can't get through the waves!

The key is that in order to defend the city, Belgrade has been fully mobilized, not young men, even young women have been organized, and two female soldiers have been established to prepare to fight the Bulgarians to the end!

Theoretically, Belgrade now has hundreds of thousands of troops in the city, six or seven times the number of enemies outside the city! If it were the Middle Ages, Alexander I could now launch a counterattack!

If there are more people, it is not necessarily a good thing. You can not pay the military salary, and you cannot and don't have the military ration! The Serbian government now has to worry about eating for these people!

It is impossible to transport grain from outside the city. No matter how much grain is passed by the Bulgarian army, it will not be enough to eat inside the city!

Young Alexander I, although his ability is limited, he is not really stupid! He knew that once the food was cut off, the mutiny would happen immediately! For the sake of safety, I have to urge the Serbian delegation to speed up the negotiation process!

The opinion of the Serbian delegation, the Austrian foreign minister is dumbfounded, is he still fighting for the interests of Serbia? Are you going to give in?

Well, if that's the case, it's easy! In order to make a complete set of the show, according to the original plan, this "difficult" negotiation would have been postponed until 1895. Now it has only been a week, and the Serbs gave in by themselves!

Since he is tackling key problems, how could Ferdinand miss the Austro-Hungarian Minister of Foreign Affairs?

The Serbs would never have thought of it in their dreams. As soon as they showed the intention of concession, they were sold!

On this news, Bulgaria paid another 50,000 pounds! When the war is over, the top leaders of the Bulgarian government will suddenly realize that fighting is not the most expensive thing, but doing public relations!

But this news is indeed worth the price! Although a secret agreement has been reached with the Austro-Hungarian Empire, if Serbia is willing to pay a higher price, it can still operate without harming the interests of the Austro-Hungarian Empire!

Knowing that the Serbian government can no longer hold on, Ferdinand decided to add another fire!

Belgrade is located at the confluence of the Sava and Danube rivers in northern Serbia. It is the capital of the Republic of Serbia and the national political, economic and cultural center. It is an important contact point between Europe and the Near East. It has very important strategic significance and is called the Balkan Key.

For the defender, food and water are two essential elements! After cutting off the supply of food and coal, Ferdinand turned his goal to water!

After getting the order, Popov in the besieged city knew immediately! Belgrade is located at the confluence of rivers, it is unrealistic to want to poison! Ferdinand didn't let them do that either, the impact is really bad!

Ferdinand’s order is to adopt a very primitive, very traditional, but very effective method-to cut off the river upstream!

Of course, it is not really necessary to cut off the Sava and Danube rivers, otherwise there will be no place to clean up the diverted river water!

If you haven’t started the negotiation, it’s all right. It has already begun. If you create artificial floods, it will be too much to inundate the farmland and villages downstream!

What Popov has to do now is to force the prisoners to dump dirt and **** into the river and make a gesture of cutting off the river. UU Reading puts pressure on the Serbian government!

The muddy river water is not suitable for drinking directly in the city! As for the consequences, this is not about Ferdinand, anyway the Serbian government should have a headache!

As soon as Popov moved outside the city, Belgrade was confused! If the water source is contaminated, then dig a well and hold back. Anyway, it is located at the confluence of rivers. Digging down can always dig out water!

Of course, this is fine when there are few people! The problem is that in Belgrade, in addition to the indigenous people, more than 100,000 troops have been added. How can the water for so many people be solved by a few wells!

Grab food in front, and now grab water, the government has to dispatch troops to maintain order in the city!

In just ten days, the army has shot thousands of people, and this stabilized the situation. The high level of the Serbian government knows that Belgrade is on the verge of collapse!

Alexander I now holds high-level meetings every day to think about strategies! There is also a very important reason, that is, not to give your subordinates the opportunity to connect to prevent a coup! Why does Serbia have a tradition of coups?

At the dull meeting, the Minister of Industry bit the bullet and said: "The situation in Belgrade is getting worse and worse, and all industry and commerce in the city have ceased!

The capitalists are going crazy and they are stuck at my door every day. Now I have a home and cannot go back!

In the long run, I'm afraid the situation will get out of control further!

The Bulgarians want to force us to compromise and accept their terms in full!

Now they may cut off the river at any time. Once it does happen, the farmland and towns in our downstream areas will be devastated, and the consequences will be very serious!

If the negotiation fails, I am afraid that the entire Serbia will not have a pure land! "
