After the first World War, all Eastern European countries were eager to incorporate the land ruled by their ancestors into their own countries. Poland and Romania were typical representatives. Because of their proximity to the Soviet Union, these two countries received "special care" from Britain and France. In order to strengthen the resistance of the newly developed countries in Eastern Europe against the Soviet Union as much as possible, Britain and France supported Poland and Romania to expand their land, I didn''t expect that this actually weakened these two small countries.
After the war, Romania acquired the whole region of Transylvania, which is mainly composed of Hungarians and Germans, Bukovina and pisarabia, which are mainly composed of rosenians and Ukrainians, and South dobroga, which is mainly composed of Bulgarians. The result of this "Crazy" expansion is that Romania has three enemies close at hand: the Soviet Union, which is still in the frail but still in the skeleton and is planning revenge, the resentful Hungary and the discontented and grumbling Bulgaria. In the end, these three "neighbors" will "help" Romania complete a "transformation" that will make it unforgettable
After World War II, Romania''s economic (especially oil exploration) reconstruction work was done very quickly, but it fell into a sad state politically. Although it established friendly relations with Poland, Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia, and there were so-called "small treaty countries", it was in 1924 that former student movement leader rodrianu established the iron guard.
The great crisis of 1929-1933 was an opportunity for all radical or slightly radical organizations - for example, the Nazis and the great German Party, and so was the iron guard of Romania. Its slogan of "one person, one acre" made many landless farmers turn to it, and won the support of some dissatisfied people in the city. However, in the parliamentary election, the, The influence of the iron guards was negligible for a long time.
However, the threat is getting more and more serious. The Hungarians and Bulgarians next door are good to say, but the Soviet Union, with the help of German engineering on the other side of the Dniester River, is gradually recovering, especially its huge army. If the improvement in efficiency is relatively limited, it is undoubtedly stronger in scale and equipment, Romanian weapons are still being updated slowly. However, for the time being, the Soviets are not willing to move Romania, which has two backers: Britain and France. In particular, they have to worry that the Germans will take it away.
But it won''t happen because of Soviet concerns. The speed of Germany''s rise after the war shocked the Romanians, and its determination to intervene abroad was greater than the Romanian king had imagined. When Romanians welcome German envoy Angela Merkel, many politicians may be ready to give in when they have to.
As a result, without waiting for Merkel to launch her diplomatic mediation with Romania, an unexpected country has come: Hungary. This country was originally supported by the United Kingdom and France, but at this time, it somehow stood on the side of Germany. I don''t know whether the leader of this country is too fanciful or indeed has great wisdom.
Merkel''s visit to Romania is not an unprepared surprise, but a result of the painstaking efforts of dozens of institutions in Germany for two years. In Romania, they helped Germany set up a speaker, Antonescu.
With the help of this Antonescu, Merkel almost effortlessly convinced her majesty to make this stupid Romanian monarch do a thorough wall riding: sell 80% of the oil in stock to the British at twice the price of Middle East oil, and secretly sell the remaining 20% and the right to buy oil in the next two years to the German.
The British have made great efforts to maintain their alliance with Romania, and they are willing to pay a huge amount of oil money. But apparently they failed, only to know at the last moment that they had been betrayed by Romania. The angry British refused to pay for the goods and embezzled the first tens of thousands of barrels of oil from Romania. The German generously advanced the money for the British, which made the king of Romania overjoyed.
The Germans were not idle either. They detained two British custom-made battleships in Kiel and threatened that the British government must make a reasonable explanation to explain the recent series of provocations against Germany.
In the end, the British compromised and gained the benefits of Middle East oil. They needed time to digest the fruits of the victory. They also saw Germany''s eastward ambitions and actions from Germany''s involvement in Romania, so this time they chose to give in. Britain declared that it would never interfere in Romania''s internal affairs and apologized for the German shipwreck.
Germany also did not advance an inch, and immediately continued to build two super battleships for Britain. Krupp factory worked overtime to manufacture 16 381 mm guns for these two battleships. However, not far from the docks of the two British custom-made battleships in Kiel harbor, the two Zeppelin class aircraft carriers have entered the stage of hull assembly. Compared with the cold and quiet workers on the British custom-made battleships, the construction site there can be described as full of heat.
Of course, this time the deal has brought great changes to Romania. Germany paid a sum of money for oil with the early models of tank 2 and tank 3, and Romania directly bought me-109c, the most advanced high-altitude Super Fighter in the world, from Germany. In addition to the 38t tanks and machine guns imported from Czechoslovakia, the Romanian Army completed the long-awaited modernization in an instant, and his majesty trusted his new allies more.
Even a lot of equipment eliminated by Germany: old gas masks, complicated armored vehicles, and Y-type tactical braces. It''s still the upgrade product that many army dream of. For example, in the Far East, the price of an original Mauser rifle can even buy a light machine gun in the Czech Republic. So Romania didn''t feel any bad about the equipment it got. In 1933, Antonescu had been the Minister of the army. Although he was considered to be a pro British faction, he had long joined the pro German Iron Guard. Moreover, with the infiltration and temptation of Germany, his thoughts also changed greatly. In his view, Germany will win the future war, and only by standing with Germany can Romania be protected. At that time, the Antonescu Iron Guard became the only legal party in Romania. As soon as he came to power, he signed a treaty with Germany, allowing the German army to enter the country for reasons such as helping to train the army, which tied Romania tightly to the German chariot. But even akkado found a fact: almost all the leaders in his camp have a strange claim that he is the German head of state; The friendly Japanese leader calls himself Emperor; Mussolini likes to call himself a leader. Franco calls himself a general. Now the puppet regime of Romania, Antonescu, calls himself a "leader"... Soon Britain got a piece of abusive information, and Germany shipped some military supplies to Romania. In order to help each other in joint operations, we replaced Romanian helmets with M25 helmets, and armed the Romanian army with Mauser 98K and various infantry equipment to become the German national defense force ten years ago. Even more depressed than the British was the Chiang Kai Shek group in the Far East, which had to change the Romanian troops on a large scale, resulting in the shortage of supplies to the Far East. The original 100 million bullets and all kinds of long guns and short guns have disappeared, and Chiang Kai Shek''s plan to build a strong army has to be frustrated once again. Because of Germany''s arms embargo, Japan, which got the favor, agreed to Germany''s request and ordered a very small-scale destroyer fleet to go south to Kaohsiung, Taiwan, where it held a small-scale artillery drill, which distracted the British attention to the Far East. The destroyer valiant and two destroyers passed through the Suez Canal and entered the Indian Ocean, He went straight to his own Hong Kong. Sometimes, akkado really thinks that when he crossed the border, he chose the hell mode. While Japan took advantage of the chaos, he laid the black soil of Baishan Mountain in the three eastern provinces. That is to say, the big powers just yelled twice and drove away an arms control committee, which caused such a big trouble. If you think about it, there are still many concessions for those who go back to the Anti Japanese War, either with their brains or with their bases - whatever the artillery and aircraft want, what the petroleum, wood, aluminum, iron, molybdenum and titanium want, and what the metals want. Every day, I save money for a few cannons. Every day, I break my heart for a few tons of petroleum rubber. People pick up girls and run newspapers. Every minute, I get back the lost land. It''s true that people have to die and goods have to be thrown away. Of course, then again, is to become a cardo? Rudolph''s ancient long song is a chance to choose, he will not choose to be born in Japan, for many reasons: for example, he does not like to bow; For example, he doesn''t like abdominal incision; For example, he doesn''t like the negative expression baga - of course, if he can change Japan''s name to China''s Donghai Province, it''s another matter. Back to the point, when akado learned that Romania had finally become a subsidiary ally of Germany, he was relieved that he didn''t want to start the world war in 1936. He needed time to make his German defense force more powerful. It was so powerful that he could not only fight dazzling blitz, but also withstand cruel war of attrition. What is gratifying is that, no matter what, the development of the three armed forces in Germany will no longer be restricted by others. What he has to do is to check the crazy development of German equipment with the vision of his previous life, so as to make these war machines operate more perfectly.
