Chapter 762 Turning Point

On the battlefield in the Near East, an exciting scene appeared. When the front line was at its hottest, there was chaos in the rear of Ottoman.

The Armenians rebelled, the Greeks rebelled, the Slavs rebelled, and even the Kurds showed signs of instability.

If there is no rebellion, no one is going to instigate them. Otherwise, the rebellious nation in the Ottoman country will have to add a large group.

The previous waves of national uprisings were all due to the anti-Turkish alliance. Everyone knows that the Ottoman Empire is going to get cold, and it will be too late if they don't change jobs.

If the upper class wants to find a way out, it will naturally have to submit a certificate. If you don't take action at this time to prove your position, how will you protect your position in the future?

If the anti-Turkish alliance opens its doors at this time, it is estimated that some people in the Ottoman government will switch jobs.

There is no doubt that civil unrest accelerated the decline of the Ottoman Empire.

Unlike previous national independence movements, this time the insurgent army was armed, and the Austrian airship dropped weapons and ammunition on the insurgent army.

The sequelae of a multi-ethnic country broke out. Although the rebels were only a few, they were stabbed at this time, which caused the Sudanese government to lose trust in the ethnic minorities in the country.

Affected by the rebellion, the ethnic conflicts in the Ottoman Empire were also intensified.

The morale of the people, which the Sudanese government has managed to inspire, has directly lost half of it, and the sense of belonging of the ethnic minorities to the country has dropped sharply.

First the Austrian army captured Kirsehir, and then the Russians also captured Osmandzyk, and they saw that the two countries were about to meet on the Kyzyl River.

Once this battle plan was completed, the Ottoman Empire was split in half by the Anti-Turkish Alliance, and the head and tail could not be cared for.

In particular, the essence of the western region was completely surrounded by the anti-Turkish alliance and could not receive any assistance from the outside world.

It is impossible to give up the west, the capital Ankara is west of the Kyzyl River.

Moreover, the Austrian army had entered the Mesopotamia, and the territory in the east of the Ottomans was equally unsafe.

The long and narrow territory of the Asia Minor peninsula created favorable conditions for the anti-Turkish alliance. The coalition could cut in from the middle and split the Ottoman Empire in two.

The "Kizil River Reunion" is only one of the alternative plans, and the two river basins can also meet. It is a pity that the Caucasus is mountainous, and the Russians still play mountain warfare with the Ottomans in the Greater Caucasus Mountains.

Due to the tense situation, the Ottoman Empire had to shrink its forces and stick to it.

The main force shrank back, and the burden of defense all fell into the hands of the local militia. The commander of the militia was not an officer appointed by the government, but a religious leader...

When it comes to belief, the combat power is always bursting. Although not as good as the regular army, the combat effectiveness of the Ottoman militias still shocked the anti-Turkish alliance.

In Constantinople, Albrecht, the commander-in-chief of the coalition headquarters, was furious: "Marshal Publius, are you here for vacation or war?"

For a soldier, such an accusation is undoubtedly the greatest insult. Fortunately, Publius is a puppet soldier who has become a monk halfway through his career, and his face is more like a politician.

"Your Excellency Commander, this is a complete accident. No one knows that the Ottomans will focus on..."

Before he could finish speaking, the Russian commander-in-chief Ivanov interrupted unceremoniously: "The battlefield is not an amusement park, don't make so many excuses for failure.

And where is the main force of the Ottomans, everyone knows that we are not unscrupulous politicians, and no one listens to you here. "

There was no way. In the recent battle, the Greek army was ambushed by the Ottoman guerrillas and unfortunately lost dozens of heavy artillery.

Originally, it was nothing to lose on the battlefield, but the problem was that the Greeks did not blow up the artillery when they broke through, and these artillery and ammunition fell into the hands of the Ottoman army.

Losing such a big person, the Greek army naturally concealed it. In the ensuing battle, the shells fell on the Russians.

Due to the lack of preparation and miscalculation of the enemy's firepower, the Russian army lost thousands of people by surprise.

Through the captured prisoners, after figuring out the cause and effect, the Russians naturally refused to eat this dumb loss, and this was the reason for this coalition meeting.

Originally, a soldier with an orthodox background like Ivanov looked down on a parallel marshal from a politician like Publius.

Now that such a thing has happened again, naturally it will not be polite. The commanders of the four countries in the coalition headquarters all bear the title of marshal, and they are also divided into three, six and nine.

Both Ivanov and Albrecht were from orthodox soldiers and had military exploits, so their status was naturally the first.

The commander-in-chief of Montenegro, Maxim Trentiev, although he did not have any military exploits, he was also from an orthodox soldier.

Even though Greece is stronger than Montenegro, here, Maxim Trentiev's status is still higher than Publius.

This subconscious judgment has been proven on the battlefield. Russia and Austria are the main force, and the record is naturally not bad.

Although the Principality of Montenegro had few soldiers, the achievements of others were almost the same as those of the Greeks.

The army is a place that believes in the strong. No matter what tactics are used, the generals who can win the battle are the most respected.

Fortunately, Publius was in a good mood, if ordinary people would have collapsed long ago.

"Marshal Ivanov, we are very sorry about this matter. Since the troops that escorted the artillery were wiped out that day, we did not get any news, so..."

This explanation is obviously unsatisfactory, but everyone is under the banner of the coalition, and political interests are determined.

It's decided that everyone can't turn around.

Albrecht's initial sarcasm seemed to be aimed at Publius, but in fact it was more to ease the contradiction.

No matter how bad Publius is, he is also the representative of Greece, and the Russians can't be clicked in a rage.

Under normal circumstances, ordinary people can't do things that represent allies, but it doesn't mean that the Russians can't do it either.

Albrecht didn't expect anything from the Russian temper.
