King Ferdinand I of Bulgaria, who had been following the negotiation process, immediately summoned Lieutenant General Savov, the Minister of War, after receiving the telegram that Prime Minister Geschov introduced in detail.

He showed Lieutenant General Savov the telegram sent by Prime Minister Geschoff to watch. After reading the conditions put forward by the various countries, the Minister of War knew very well the purpose of King Ferdinand I calling him.

After seeing Lieutenant General Savov read it, Ferdinand I asked. "What do you think of the conditions of various countries?"

After Lieutenant General Savov thought for a while, he said it word for word. "Your Majesty, I think there is room for negotiation between countries. We can..."

Hearing Lieutenant General Savov's explanation, Ferdinand I waved his hand to stop the War Minister from continuing.

"If we don't agree to Romania's conditions, the peace talks will not go ahead. This time I'm looking for you mainly to ask what the military thinks about it."

Hearing the words of King Ferdinand I, Lieutenant General Savov knew what to ask. However, the Bulgarian army really can't beat Romania, and in the Prime Minister's telegram, Austria-Hungary and Germany also do not support Bulgaria on this issue, which makes Lieutenant General Savov, who actually controls the Bulgarian army, have nothing to say.

Seeing the silent Lieutenant General Savov, Ferdinand I knew what the army was thinking. They wanted to pretend they didn't know, but Ferdinand I wanted to pretend he didn't know but he couldn't.

Looking at Lieutenant General Savov standing there awkwardly, Ferdinand I waved and said. "Then it's alright, let's go down."

After receiving an answer from Lieutenant General Savov on behalf of the Bulgarian military, Ferdinand I sent a telegram to Prime Minister Geschov in the evening. As mentioned above, Prime Minister Geschov is solely responsible for this negotiation.

The prime minister who received the telegram knew that this was what Ferdinand I had told him to promise, but it was a nice euphemism.

Looking at the telegrams sent from the country in his hands, Prime Minister Geschov said that Foreign Minister Dirasnoch said. "This time he will let me negotiate alone!"

Hearing Prime Minister Geschov's words, Foreign Minister Dirasnoch said with a wry smile. "Your Excellency, do you think I can stay in politics after this negotiation?"

Prime Minister Geschoff thinks that this is indeed the case. This time, he deliberately selected some people who are not optimistic. He did not bring any political stars he was optimistic about, just to not delay the future of others. This time their purpose is clear, to sign a humiliating peace treaty for Bulgaria. Prime Minister Geschov just wants to reduce losses for Bulgaria, and he doesn't even dare to think about negotiating for countries to make concessions.

After receiving the domestic telegram, Prime Minister Geschov also did not directly sign the Romanian conditions proposed by Prime Minister Bretianu. And repeatedly and the Prime Minister of Romania, I hope to reduce losses for Bulgaria. However, Prime Minister Bretianu, who now has a huge advantage, remains unmoved and insists on Romania's conditions, leaving Prime Minister Geschov helpless. In the end, five days later, he agreed to Romania's conditions in full, but he was not without gains.

In his persevering negotiations, he won the ceded territory of Romania for Bulgaria, and the local people could choose whether to go to Bulgaria or stay there. The Romanian government will give 20 million leva of humanitarian funds to Bulgaria for these people to migrate. However, Bulgaria will also open up the Romanian nationality in the country to allow them to migrate to Romania. For this, Romania will also provide 5 million leva of aid to allow Bulgaria to provide convenience.

The management is based on the name of aid funds. In fact, everyone knows that this is the compensation given by Romania to get Bulgaria to agree to this condition, just for the sake of good reputation and not embarrassing the Bulgarian government.

After negotiating Romania’s conditions, other countries had a better time to talk, especially Montenegro. After a price increase, Prime Minister Geschov asked Montenegrin negotiators to agree, and Bulgaria compensated him for the compensation amount of 00 levs.

Then in the Serbian negotiations, Prime Minister Geschov and his Foreign Minister Milanovic clashed fiercely over very different terms.

To this end, it also led to the powers behind their respective support. In the end, this negotiation turned into a confrontation between the Austrian-Hungarian Foreign Minister Erlenthal and the Russian Foreign Minister Sassunov. Russia has a stronger national power than Austria-Hungary, but Austria-Hungary did not give in after receiving German support. In addition, the performance of the Serbian army this time is not as good as that of Bulgaria, and finally each took a step back. Serbia will no longer seek to hold other Macedonian territories, while Bulgaria will no longer claim sovereignty over Bitola and Ohrid. This is a good result for Bulgaria at the moment.

Then in the negotiation with Greece, because the United Kingdom was unwilling to go too deep on the Balkan issue. In the words of British Prime Minister Asquith. "Instead of spending more time in the Balkans, we should spend more time looking at the German shipbuilding program."

So Greece didn't get much support in the Bucharest negotiation, and Russia, after securing the interests of Serbia, its own son, only gave its support to Greece, the British younger brother, and France, not to mention, in the Balkans they completely not interested. So Greece finally faced, Bulgaria with the support of Austria-Hungary and Germany could only accept Prime Minister Geschov's conditions. The southern part of the Thessaloniki region was obtained, and the city of Thessaloniki was finally assigned to Bulgaria.

And Bulgaria received the islands of Thassos and Samo near its new territory as compensation for its concessions. For this reason, the Greek negotiator Constantine Foreign Minister can only bear the fact that he can only accept the fact that the Greek army performed so poorly before.

During the final negotiations with the Ottoman Empire, Prime Minister Geschov had a round of confrontation with his representative Foreign Minister Ildire. However, under the coordination of Austria-Hungary and Germany, the two countries now take the actual occupation of territory as the standard, which actually makes both Bulgaria and Ottoman not very satisfied. However, after seeing that Bulgaria and other countries had reached peace talks, Ottoman Foreign Minister Yildire could only sign the treaty after asking the country for instructions.

Because Germany promised to help the Ottoman Empire to give up its unrealistic ideas, and the Ottoman military had assessed the performance of the two Bulgarian wars and believed that it wanted to take Yadri against the Bulgarian army alone. Arbor is a bit impractical. So in the end, under the circumstance of Austria-Hungary and Germany, I agreed to this condition.

The countries that finally participated in the Second Balkan War finally signed the Treaty of Bucharest on the day of the month.

Romania became the biggest winner in this treaty. With his foresight and the strong fighting power of the Romanian army, Crown Prince Eder made Bulgaria have to swallow the fact that it lost its 22,000 territories.

Serbia did not perform well in this war, but still won the Bitola and Ohrid areas due to Russian support. Greece is more tragic. In the absence of strong support from major powers, coupled with the lack of strength of its own army on the battlefield, it only grabbed half of the Thessaloniki area, and also lost two islands of Thassos and Samo. An island, it is a dark loss.

In the end, the Ottomans took back the Tekidar region of East Thrace, while the Adriatic Fort, which was crucial to it, was still in Bulgarian hands.

As for the defeated country Bulgaria, although it lost the above territory, it was still much better than the original time and space. He at least kept most of the results of its first Balkan war, mainly Macedonia and most of Thrace. Its population has also soared from 4.45 million before the Balkan Wars to 500,000, mainly due to the acquisition of 26 people on new territories, although 50,000 Bulgarians live on the territory ceded to Romania. It is believed that the propaganda of the Bulgarian government can attract about 200,000 Bulgarians to return. In the original history, Bulgaria only increased its population by 20,000 after the two Balkan wars.

As for Serbia, the population has grown from three million before the two Balkan wars to 4.2 million, which is 300,000 less than the 4.5 million in the original history. The main reason is that it did not get Strumica, which belongs to Macedonia, from Bulgaria. and Karadarchi area. Greece has also increased its population from 220,000 to about 4 million, which is 500,000 less than the 4.5 million in the original history. It was mainly unable to obtain the entire Thessaloniki region and western Thrace from Bulgaria. Two small islands were also lost, which is considered to be a steal.

The biggest loser in the two wars was the Ottoman Empire, whose European territory was only the area around Istanbul. Losing most of its European territory also reduced its population of about 4.6 million.
