Chapter 291 - Vol 4 Chapter 23: The outbreak of the Second Balkan War

I ca n't do anything, I try my best!

In order to attack the Asia Minor Peninsula, Bulgaria has formed three fronts this time, with a total of more than 600,000 people, regardless of primary and secondary, launched attacks on three battlefields simultaneously.

Ottomans couldn't stand the Bulgarian force. The appearance is the appearance, as soon as the battlefield is revealed!

Although there are more than 300,000 new army in the Ottoman Empire, in essence this modern army is no different from the old army. Those who eat empty bells still eat empty bells, and the officers are still monopolized by the nobility!

However, due to the replacement of better weapons and equipment, the combat effectiveness has been greatly improved, and the Bulgarian landing army in Bandemaar was temporarily blocked by them.

But the other two landing sites, because they are not the focus of the Ottoman defense, the port of Karaburun has fallen, and the Third Front has entered the town of Izmir, an important town of Ottomans.

Guzong Guldak was not much better. After the successful landing, the First Front Army did not blindly advance to Ankara, but instead expanded the site. There was a big look of me not leaving!

Okay, it 's just like doing something to attract the anti-protection alliance. How can Ferdinand really do his best?

As long as enough pressure is given to the Ottoman government, the Anti-Protection Alliance thinks that the main force of Bulgaria has fallen into the Asia Minor Peninsula. It is not necessary to die with the Turks!

At this time, the Sudanese government can't stand it. If you continue to fight Bulgaria, you won't be able to occupy the Asia Minor Peninsula, but the most beautiful plains in the coastal areas will definitely not be able to keep it!

The new war minister said, "The great sultan, the Bulgarians have been hooked. Should we ask our allies for help?"

I saw Sudan look somber and said, "The waste is a group of waste! Bulgaria has just exerted its power, and you can't stop it ..."

The Sudan vented their dissatisfaction for a while, but chose to ask for help from the Anti-Insurance Alliance, otherwise they would let the war go on their own land, and even if they finally win, they will suffer heavy losses!

It's a pity that neither George I of Greece, Carol I of Romania, or Nicholas I of Montenegro were fools.

How can the three countries be able to take matters from the fire? Either the Bulgarian Army has been hit hard in the Asia Minor Peninsula, or the Bulgarians have penetrated the Asia Minor Peninsula and been pinned down, otherwise don't think about them in their early days!

In case of launching here, Bulgaria will withdraw its troops directly from the Asia Minor Peninsula. By then, all three of them will be too late to cry, so everyone agrees that the Ottoman Empire should make sacrifices for the alliance and hold Bulgaria's main army!

Time passed in a hurry, and it was July in a flash.

At this time, the life of the Ottoman Empire is very difficult. Izmir to the west has fallen, Manisa has been lost, and Salihli is shaky.

德 Bandemaar, on the south coast of the Marmara Sea, is also dead now, and Kush Lake has become Ferdinand's footbath.

沿 The Black Sea line is even worse. An important military site was lost in Skudar, and the Bosporus became a Bulgarian possession.

苏丹 The loss of the site, the Sudanese government can still afford it, anyway, the Ottoman Empire is large enough to have land!

The problem is the loss of the army, which makes the Sudanese government tricky. After Bulgaria launched the landing war, in just one month, half of the 300,000 new troops of the Ottoman Empire were lost, and the loss of old-fashioned troops was even more numerous!

There is no way, the ordinary people do not have the idea of ​​going to the country with the Sudanese government, and many people even regard the Bulgarian army as a liberator.

征 Without the support of the people, conscription is a big problem! Don't look at the Ottoman Empire, which also has a population of more than 20 million, but every time we have to conscript, everyone who has a little news hides.

Who is the Ottoman Empire? The soldiers were all detained. Soldiers often couldn't fill their stomachs. Who would do it?

As for nationalism, doctrine? Can you eat it?

Faith? Then be more careful, maybe they will fight first!

As for patriotic youth? Sorry, the country they love may not be the Ottoman Empire. At least with the exception of the Turkish aristocracy, most people have no sense of belonging to this country!

The Prime Minister said with a bitter smile: "Your Majesty, we can't fight anymore, otherwise we may not wait for the war to end and the government will be finished!

If the Anti-Protection Alliance does not participate in the war again, we will be ready to end the war! "

He didn't say nonsense. Since Bulgaria landed on the Asia Minor Peninsula, various contradictions previously suppressed by the Sudanese government have begun to erupt.

While Ferdinand military offensive, of course, it is impossible to forget to use political means.

For example, provide loans to the major rebels of the Ottoman Empire and promise that as long as they complete their independence, Bulgaria will recognize it as soon as possible.

Even asking allies to support their nation-building together is not to be discussed. Anyway, the checks are all empty, and Ferdinand has no idea how many preferential terms the intelligence department has issued.

The consequence is that now there are raging smoke in the Ottoman Empire!

Uh ...

可能 The possible collapse of the Ottoman Empire is no longer a secret, as long as anyone with a little vision knows it.

大 Army Minister Popov agitated on the side: "Your Majesty, if this war continues, it will take no more than half a year, the Ottoman Empire will inevitably collapse and disintegrate!

If we attack with all our strength, this time will be even shorter. It only takes two months, and we can conquer Ankara in a month and a half. By then, the Asia Minor Peninsula will be our thing! "

Yes, at this point where the Ottoman Empire may collapse at any time, Ferdinand actually asked the military to slow down the offensive, which naturally puzzled the military.

Ferdinand asked, "What then? What will happen to the millions of people on the peninsula after eating the Asia Minor Peninsula?"

Once the Ottoman Empire collapses, the great powers will surely flock in. We have reached the Asia Minor Peninsula and have reached the limit.

Then we have to deal with these millions of people every day, every day headaches, just like the current Ottoman Empire, beset by rebellions every day? "

He Popov asked in wonder: "Aren't we all deported? Just like we did before?"

Ferdinand shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "Time! The current international situation is unlikely to leave us so much time-to digest the Asia Minor Peninsula!

Now it is the 20th century. Nationalism has begun to awaken. In the future, we will have to expand the territory. We have to find a way to find a new land for the original land owner. Otherwise, internal contradictions will be enough to collapse! "

Yue Yue said, Ferdinand Nanyue felt depressed, looking for a land for his enemies? This is also cross-century news!

But countless examples of later generations have told him that if this is not done, the national conflicts in the country will explode sooner or later!

I can't help him to compile a national origin, and also withdraw from the relationship with the Turks, right? That would be too nonsense!

Because of Tripoli 's relations, Bulgaria 's relations with Italy also became tense. On July 6, the Italians publicized a one-month military exercise in the Mediterranean region.

Alas, this is the Italian's shot. In order to cheer the Anti-Insurance Alliance, the Italian did their best to directly block the return of the Bulgarian Navy and created an opportunity for the Greek fleet to block the Aegean Sea!

The move of the Italians will undoubtedly give the Anti-Protection Alliance a boost. If the Italians block the coastline, the Bulgarian Navy will be absent.

So after the Anti-Insurance Alliance waged the war, the Bulgarian army in Salihli-could not return to the country to participate in the war!

The Ottoman Empire only needs to concentrate its forces and drag on the other two roads, which will greatly reduce the military pressure of the Anti-Insurance Alliance.

The only flaw in the beauty is only a month!

The abnormal behavior of the Italians caught the attention of the Germans. They did not believe that the Italians could really block the Bulgarian navy for a month!

After all, neither the British fleet in the Mediterranean nor the French fleet is comparable to the Italians!

Once Bulgaria asks for help from its allies, will the Italians let go?

However, the actions of the Italians, after all, did not say anything to actually alleviate the military pressure on the anti-protection alliance.

Uh ...

When Ferdinand was at his lunch break, Minister of Foreign Affairs Metiev hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, Greece, Montenegro, and Romania just declared war on us!"

Ferdinand smiled slightly and said with satisfaction: "Oh, the fish is finally hooked! Keep it informed, I'll go to Congress to speak later!"

Both sides are calculating each other, but in the end, they still have to speak with strength!

Weak meat and strong food, survival of the fittest!

This is the rule of survival in the era of imperialism. If Bulgaria wins, then the seventh largest power in Europe will be born. If it loses, then continue to mix in the position of quasi-powers. Position depends on strength!
