Chapter 129 The Unlucky Poles
Throughout February, after countless disputes and bargaining, the compensation distribution finally came to an end: France took 44%, Britain took 26%, Russia took 18%, Italy took 11%, the United States didn’t have a penny, and Japan took 1% symbolically.
The issue of compensation distribution has been resolved, and the territorial problem is followed by a more troublesome territorial problem. On March 5, a meeting on post-war territorial and national standards was held for the first time. This time, in order to reduce friction and speed up the meeting process, the foreign ministers of the six major countries withdrew, leaving only the heads of the six countries and necessary civilian personnel.
Before the meeting began, Wilson re-promoted his old tune, once again promoting his idea of "national self-determination" and demanding the establishment of a national state on the territory of the former Austro-Hungarian Empire. "Then according to Mr. Wilson's suggestion, the boundaries between Italy and the former Austro-Hungarian Empire must be clearly determined according to national characteristics, and the Eastern European people established a national state according to the principle of national self-determination. Everyone, this is the issue today." The host Crimson said quickly, sat down, and looked at Orlando and Golitzen.
Since it is related to one's own interests, Italian Prime Minister Orlando immediately stood up and spoke, "We Italy need Capoleto and Riast, as well as the surrounding territories. These are the conditions set before joining the war. Mr. Crimson, Mr. George, and Mr. Golitzen, our country's territorial requirements are so many........."
When the heads of Britain and France heard this, they frowned. Golitzen knew that they wanted to repent and immediately expressed their firm support for Orlando in accordance with Anna's telegram order. Then, he agreed to the people of Eastern Europe to establish ** countries according to the principle of national self-determination, such as Czechoslovakia, Hungary and Serbia. When talking about the Polish issue, Golitzen spoke firmly and said, "The new Poland can be compensated from the territory of Germany and Austro-Hungarian Empire. For the sake of being good at neighbors, we Russia can give Poland certain economic compensation, but Russian Poland is an inalienable part of Russia. Moreover, the great emperor of our country also serves as the king of Poland, which is related to Russia's territorial sovereignty. If any accident occurs, our heroic army will fight to the end!"
"Haha, Mr. Golitzen, the war has just ended. Do you still want to trigger a war?" British Prime Minister Lloyd George said coldly, "The Polish people have the right to obtain complete Polish land." "That's right." Wilson also spoke out. As a scholar-type president, Wilson has a doctorate in philosophy. He slowly said, "Every nation has the right to safeguard its own rights and interests. I hope the Russian people can consider the feelings of the Polish people: it is really a tragedy for more than a hundred years to be destroyed."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Wilson, I think it's necessary to inform you and everyone here: since the German and Austro-Hungarian Empire occupied Poland in 1915, the Polish people suffered great disasters. After our army recovered its territory in 1918, we found that all the Poles in our territory were killed or injured. At least in Russian Poland, there were very few purebred Poles."
Golitzen said something amazing, and then he said word by word, "So, after analysis, I believe that something extremely cruel happened during the German-Austrian occupation..."
....................................................
"Hu!" After receiving a call from Golitzen, Anna was very glad that she finally threw the charges of persecuting the Poles to the Germans and Austrians. Now, most of the millions of Poles who originally lived in Russian Poland were sent to Siberia, which greatly promoted the process of Siberia's development. In the winter of tens of degrees below zero, the Poles were logging, mining, and working in the Tyumen oil field... It was also with their efforts that the Siberian Railway, which penetrated Europe and Asia, finally completed the final work in 1916. Since then, the European and Asian parts of Russia have become closer... However, hundreds of thousands of Poles have paid the price of life and health, and Anna has given them a meager pension and burial expenses.
On the issue of ruling Bulgaria and the European part of the former Ottoman Empire, Anna actively learned the actions of Stalin in history: secretly arrested disobedient upper class people, including professors, middle and senior officers, journalists, government officials, scientists, etc., and then transported them to their own country and handed them over to General Stalin for handling.
Perhaps only by truly contacting historical figures can one get the most real experience. Originally, Anna had a superficial understanding of Stalin: he was a suspicious, suspicious, cunning, and power-oriented old man, but now, the secret agents responsible for monitoring Stalin, who would report every time Stalin reported, he would mention how Stalin abused prisoners of war and criminals in the labor camp, and the methods used were extremely cruel. "It turns out that Comrade Stalin really had a shadow in his childhood. Such perverted punishments were far more than Lingchi, haha... "But Anna was not prepared to correct Stalin's violent and cruel character. On the contrary, she needed this super cruel official to deal with those who dared to resist.
By the way, when he thought of the people who resisted him, Anna couldn't help but let go of all government affairs and brought Abiya and Colonel Yuna to the basement - a private kingdom that belonged only to her.
In a spacious and luxurious bedroom, Princess Maria of the Russian Empire was quietly asleep. "Princess Maria returned to the Petersburg Palace alone and stayed temporarily for a while. "This is Anna's explanation to others.
"You guys are outside!" Close the door, Anna walked to the big bed alone, bent down, gently stroked Maria's smooth cheeks like a baby, and muttered to herself. "Tsk tsk tsk.........My dearest sister, why are you so immature? Or is the eldest sister and the second sister understand the truth, and they both chose to remain silent. Well......... Maybe because they are already married, they can't bear to leave their children and husbands, haha, and you still have to go against me!"
The dazzling chandeliers illuminated the entire room. Under the soft light, Anna sat by the bed, looking at Maria until the effect of the medicine dissipated. Soon, Maria opened her eyes, and her long eyelashes flashed, "Huh! Here is!?" She sat up all of a sudden, and what appeared in front of her was Anna's face.
"Dear sister, you finally woke up......" Anna's tone was plain, but Maria keenly sensed her sister's anger.
He pinched Maria's delicate chin very frivolously, and Anna still said lightly, "I admit that our father and our younger brother are definitely not a normal death. Another thing is that I am a gentleman and I don't kill women. So, Maria, you are still alive now, thanks to me, your understanding?"
