Chapter 751： Anti-turk alliance

The sudden killing of the ambassador has tilted the European public opinion that was not good for Ottoman, and the politicians, experts, and scholars who were originally inclined to Ottoman also shut up at this time.

Affected by this, on May 7, 1882, the Vienna government terminated the second round of negotiations on the third day after the crime.

Immediately after, the Vienna government issued a war disc to the Ottoman government on May 9 and ordered the Ottoman government to hand over the true murder of the "massacre" within a week.

This is not a matter of disagreement, but it is simply impossible.

The masses involved in the massacre were too vague. There was no precise definition of the identity of the deceased, the number of people, and the location of the killings. I did not know how to start when I wanted to investigate.

Not to mention a week, even if it was given to the Ottoman government for a year, they were not able to find out the true culprit.

At the same time as the announcement by the Vienna government, the Greek government also issued a war disc to the Ottoman Empire, with similar contents, all letting the Ottoman government surrender the killer.

Everyone knows that the war is here, and the international community has set its sights on London and St. Petersburg. These two are now able to influence the war.

France was originally the same, but they had two governments, one of which had to oppose the other.

At a critical time to win the hearts of the people, when there is a problem in the mind, it will support Ottoman at this time and offend the domestic religious forces.

Dimitri Pasha, the Ottoman ambassador to Russia, has been waiting in the parlour for more than three hours in the Gatchina Palace in St. Petersburg.

At this moment, Alexander III is leisurely fishing. Although it is not yet possible to "Tsar on vacation, let Europe wait", but Ottomans can already wait.

"Your Majesty, the ministers have arrived."

"Take them here!" Alexander III said

As for waiting for Minister Ottoman, let him wait. Alexander III was not prepared to meet him at all.

If it were not for the Austrians and increased the bargaining chips on the negotiating table, the Ottoman minister might not even be able to enter the palace.

Alexander III, who seemed to have a smile on his face, was not in a good mood at this time, but his good education made him angry.

This sudden near east war is different from the past. The Austrian government did not communicate with them in advance, which affected the self-esteem of Alexander III.

The world is real. The Russian Empire was at its peak during the first Near Eastern War. Everything revolved around the Tsarist government. With their powerful strength, they got Constantinople, which they dreamed of.

The situation changed during the Second Near Eastern War. The main force of the war became Austria, and the Russian Empire could only assist.

Even if it is auxiliary, it is coordinated in advance, and the status of the Russian Empire in the alliance is still not low.

Things change, and at this time, the Russia-Australia strength comparison has undergone a drastic change, and they are actually in a dispensable position.

The Tsarist government has been procrastinating without stating its position, in order to use this to put pressure on Austria and increase their voice in the war.

Unfortunately, the outbreak of the French Civil War left Austria without worries, and Russia's importance in this war was greatly reduced.

...

Putting down the fishing rod, Alexander III stood up and sorted out his clothes: "The Third Near East War broke out. Now we need to make a choice. What do you think?"

Marshal Ivanov took the lead in saying: "Your Majesty, a rare opportunity, this is the best time for us to revive the Russian Empire."

Home Secretary Zilnomel: "Lord Marshal, this war does not mean much to us. Now what the empire needs is rest and vitality, not territorial expansion.

After the two previous Near East wars, the Ottoman Empire has lost its threat to the empire, and the only value in their hands is to control the other side of the Black Sea Strait.

If it was 20 years ago, it was really important to us, but it is now dispensable.

The Black Sea Fleet operated by the Empire was gone, and with the current financial resources of the government, it was unable to rebuild in a short time. Even if we get the key to the Mediterranean, it doesn't make sense to us. "

After hearing this explanation, Ivanov was furious: "How can it be meaningless? It is the greatest significance to be able to kill the old enemy of Ottoman in one fell swoop and fulfill the wishes of the patriarchs of the Russian Empire.

Empire revival ... "

Listening to Marshal Ivanov's endless speech, it made Alexander III feel that it was a mistake for him to come to this meeting.

However, the Russian Empire was a place of worship of the strong, and with that dazzling martial art, no one could ignore Marshal Ivanov's opinion.

The good-tempered Alexander III quickly adjusted his mentality. The military's main battle was inevitable, and it would have the same result if any military general was brought over.

Where can there be war without war? The Ottoman empire won't brush this stable win copy, so how can the military boss explain to the people below?

Do you really think that "the Tsar who does not attack the Ottoman, is not the real Tsar" is just a joke?

The Russian-Turkish war, which takes place on average less than two decades, is not just for the capture of Constantinople. In fact, more often than not before the war was launched, everyone knew it would not be possible.

The tsarist government still insists on copying this copy. The main reason is that the tsar needs prestige, the military needs military merit, and the government needs ...

揍 The Ottomans have had rich harvests. After nearly two hundred years of fermentation, the benefits of destroying the Ottoman Empire are even more substantial.

Ivanov started from Ottoman. If the Ottoman empire can be destroyed, the historical impact will definitely be famous, at least in Russian history books will be arrogantly rendered.

Treasury Secretary Alisher Gulov couldn't help but interrupt: "His Marshal, we all know the benefits of killing Ottoman. The problem is that the government has no money now.

If we participate in this war, we will have to rely on the Austrians financially to fight with their money, and we will definitely lose money in the distribution of post-war benefits.

From the standpoint of the empire, we will postpone this Near East War until we have recovered our strength, and then we can maximize the benefits of this war. "

This is a fact. The half-dead Ottoman Empire is not a problem, and it will not be a problem if you take it after ten or twenty years.

Instead, Ottoman now perished, leaving much of the Near East in the hands of Austria, and it was truly insulated from them.

Ivanov was unimpressed: "You are completely idealistic. Austria already has the power to independently destroy Ottomans.

The European countries were constrained by the tide of revolution and could not make any effort to interfere with Austria's actions in a short time.

Unless we have water in our heads and run to join with Ottoman, otherwise the end of the Ottoman Empire is doomed.

I don't think there is such a fool among you. As for the issue of interests, this requires testing our diplomatic capabilities.

But no matter how bad, it is better than just sitting idly by and watching the Austrians destroy Ottoman. "

Although it doesn't make sense, there is really nothing wrong with it logically. The Tsarist government is indeed impossible to support the Ottoman Empire, or else there would be a coup in the country without waiting for retaliation from Austria.

The hatred of Russian soil has penetrated into the bones of the Russians, especially for the nobility.

All Russian nobles who have been passed down for more than two hundred years have had pk with the Ottoman Empire. Relatives and friends have always fallen on the battlefield.

Looking up the history book, Russia and Turkey have pk twice in the past 30 years. Even if the government wants to dilute hatred, it is too late to operate.

Putting hatred aside, interest is also key. Without participating in this war, after Austria's demise of Ottomans, the forces extended into the Black Sea, which was a real threat.

...

On May 11, 1882, the Tsarist government made a request to the Ottoman Empire to redraw the boundary. Everyone knew that the protagonist of the war had another one.

Perhaps stimulated by the participation of the Russians, the Principality of Montenegro also jumped out to make fun.

On May 12, 1882, the Montenegro government submitted a huge claim list of "860 million Aegis" to the Ottoman Empire.

It contains a detailed list of losses caused by the Ottoman military invasion to the Principality of Montenegro over the past hundreds of years.

The ally is not afraid of many, it's okay to make up a few numbers, and it doesn't matter to brush up the sense of existence. The Vienna government expressed a warm welcome to the Montenegro that suddenly emerged.

At this point, the anti-Turkish alliance led by Austria was formally established.
