Bulgaria.
Sophia.
Chief Military Advisor of the Supreme Command of the Kingdom of Bulgaria and Commander of the 3rd Berlin Division of the German Empire.
General Otto Ernst Vincent Leo von Bülow.
At this time, he was rushing back to the Royal Palace in Sofia to meet King Ferdinand I.
In fact, King Ferdinand I was originally on the front line, in Bregarnica. It is not something that can be said casually that one wants to be the king of the Balkans. One must be strong enough to be recognized in this blood and fire.
Later, under siege from multiple countries, the cabinet suggested that the king should guard the capital.
General Bello came back to see Ferdinand I.
It's just that General Bello has been a little troubled lately.
Such as now.
General Stefan Toshev, commander of the 1st Sofia Infantry Division, came before General Bello.
"My goodness, how come I've never heard you mention that you actually have such a beautiful daughter? You are really disloyal to your comrades, aren't you?"
"I have said this many times, can you please believe me for once! I only have three sons, I don't have any daughters, let alone granddaughters!"
"Okay, okay, I understand. I understand."
"You know nothing."
General Bello was overwhelmed.
He paid no more attention to General Toshev.
Now, whenever Bulgarian high-ranking military officers see General Bello, they ask him about his daughter; even the German army comes to ask about him.
When did you have another daughter?
Even though General Bello said countless times that he didn't have a daughter at all.
No one believed him.
Now she has become General Bello's illegitimate daughter.
The damage to General Bello's reputation was very great.
Might as well just admit it.
But that doesn't matter now.
General Bello has come before King Ferdinand I of Bulgaria.
A bearded man wearing a Bulgarian crown.
Ferdinand Maximilian Karl Leopold Maria Saxe-Coburg-Gotha.
He was the son of Austrian General August von Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, Prince of Austria, and the last King of France, Louis-French.
Son of Princess Clementine of Bourbon-Orleans, daughter of Philip.
Compared to the friendly relations between Bulgaria and Germany.
Bulgarian King Ferdinand I did not have a very good relationship with Germany.
This is also normal.
Germany's economic and military control over Bulgaria is too deep for the huge German Empire.
It can be said that he can make clouds with a flip of his hand and rain with a flip of his hand.
In addition, when Ferdinand I became the Prince of Bulgaria in 1887, he was opposed by Germany, Russia and France.
Those were things of the Bismarck era.
In addition, religious conflicts occurred due to conversion to Orthodoxy.
During the period from 1909 to 1912, Ferdinand I sought good relations with the Russo-French alliance and sought the goodwill of Britain, Austria-Hungary, and Italy, but not Germany.
The relationship has always been strained.
Hence the current situation.
Bulgarian King Ferdinand I had personal conflicts with Germany, but Germany and Bulgaria were highly tied together economically and militarily.
It also made the relationship between Ferdinand I and General Belo a little awkward.
During the Balkan Wars.
General Perrault avoided Ferdinand I.
"Your Majesty, the King of Bulgaria."
General Bello was the first to salute Ferdinand I, and this address also represented that the relationship between the two was not harmonious.

"General, you should guess why I came to see you?"
General Bello was helpless.
"Major Hildegard is not my daughter, and I don't even know her."
"And General Mackensen?"
"General Bello was somewhat helpless.
He certainly knew General Mackensen, but General Bello did not know the Mackensen family. As an old German Junker nobleman, the Mackensen family had many people.
But it doesn't matter whether it is General Mackensen or any other general.
Hilde is a German.
A German.
That's enough.
General Bello was the highest German official in Bulgaria and he had to take responsibility for Hilde.
Ferdinand I did not continue the subject.
"We'll talk about this later. The current situation is that Silistra has contacted me."
"Um?"
The adjutant beside him had handed a letter to General Bello, who took the envelope.
The content is about the hope to appoint Major Hildegard as Bulgaria's ambassador to negotiate with Germany.
Ferdinand I added.
*Major Hilde should arrive in Germany tomorrow."
General Bello could only remain silent.
It would be strange if Ferdinand I was satisfied.
He hasn't agreed yet.
Hilde acted first and asked for permission later, forcing Ferdinand I to agree.
Ferdinand I turned and looked at General Bello.
"According to information from the front, Captain Hildegard first appeared in Bregalnica and then
I can't find her information, and I don't even know her full name. I have completely blocked this news, but I think
Ask for your opinion, General."
This still left General Bello at a loss for words.
Hilde was a typical German aristocrat in both appearance and manners. He couldn't figure it out either.
What was a German noble girl doing in the Balkan frontline army?
Is it thrill seeking?
certainly.
This is not impossible.
It's not just about getting rid of King Ferdinand.
I can't even deal with General Bello.
If she was a spy, it would be impossible at this point. Hilde represented the connection between the German Empire and Bulgaria, so what Hilde said and did was not something that Hilde could decide alone.
Just like General Kutinchev can decide whether Hilde is a real captain or a fake captain.
Huge.
Huge.
Great.
The German Empire will decide the fate of Bulgaria.
But for the middleman, General Bello, he was overwhelmed.
"At least for Bulgaria, it shouldn't be a bad thing."
"Do you think I should grant Bulgaria ambassadorial status?"
General Bello took a deep breath. "I will rush back to Berlin immediately!"
In the face of such a huge tide of the times.
Even Ferdinand I, the King of Bulgaria.
No choice.
It's not a question of whether Hilde should be given an identity.
Rather, it must be given.
As the war princess of Silistra and a figure at the center of international public opinion in Bulgaria, if Hilde had any conflicts with the Bulgarian high-level officials at this time, or even if she went back to Germany to create some problems.
Then Bulgaria's military morale and international public opinion will be in trouble.
Facing the harsh situation of being attacked by five countries, Bulgaria is walking on the edge of a cliff with every step, and absolutely cannot allow any problems to occur.
They can't afford it.
Even if Hilde really intends to cheat Bulgaria.
Then Bulgaria had no choice but to accept it.
Now.
Major Hilde went to Germany privately without the consent of Ferdinand I, and only at this time offered his ambassadorial status to King Ferdinand I, which did not give Ferdinand I the option of refusal.
But someone has to be held accountable for this.
There is no way Bulgaria could hold Hilde responsible.
Then we have to find someone else to take responsibility.
General Bel
lo, who was misunderstood by everyone, became the scapegoat.
If Hilde causes any trouble in Berlin.
General Bello is in charge.
no way.
Who told everyone to think that Hilde had a relationship with General Bello?
