Make France Great Again

Chapter 405 Ottoman Empire Compromise

In the main hall, the Ottoman Sultan Emperor Abdulmecid I magnanimously pardoned the crimes of the Principality of Moldova and the Principality of Wallachia, which shocked the ambassadors of the two principalities. .

"Your benevolent Majesty, your kindness is as hot as the sun..." The Minister of the Principality of Moldova immediately praised the Sultan. The Principality of Wallachia on the side also praised the "Medid I" to the Minister of the Principality of Moldova. Kindness".

Mecid I's understanding of the two Danube principalities made it possible for Moldova and Wallachia to continue to sit on the fence.

The ministers and emperors present all smiled heartily at the compliments given by the envoys of the Principality of Moldova and Wallachia.

After the ministers of the two principalities finished their disgusting flattery, the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire spoke again: "The fact that the princes of your two countries can send you to explain to me is enough to prove your two countries' loyalty to the emperor.

This kind of loyalty is something that no amount of money can buy! If the Russian Empire even wants to use this money, then leave it to them! It is enough as long as you can continue to remain loyal to the Ottoman Empire! "

"Please rest assured! Even if we are forced to join the Russian camp, our hearts will be with the Ottoman Empire!" The ministers of the two principalities repeatedly assured the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire.

"If that's the case, then I'm relieved!" Abdul Mejid I showed a smile on his face, and then clapped his hands gently. Six people wearing belly button dance clothes and black veils hung on their faces. The dancing girls appeared in the palace, each of them holding a small, beautifully carved box in their hand.

"Your Majesty, this is..." the Moldovan minister asked doubtfully.

"Open!" Abdul Meguid I ordered the dancers holding small boxes in a condescending tone.

The dancing girl came to the two principal ministers and opened the box. The shining gold bricks and brilliant sapphires appeared in front of the ministers' eyes.

"The two gems in the box are the continuation of my gift to you, the Grand Duke, and the two gold bricks are my gift to you." The voice of Abdul Meguid I spread from the throne to the ears of the ministers of the two countries. side.

"Your Majesty, this gift is too precious! We cannot afford it at all!" Although the Minister of the Principality of Moldova spoke righteously to Abdulmecid I, his eyes never left the gift in the hands of the dancer. gold bricks.

Judging from the appearance and thickness of the gold bricks, these two gold bricks must weigh at least about 2 kilograms.

The inheritance given to them by Abdul Meguid I was not without great wealth.

But both the Moldovan and Wallachian ministers understood that the more valuable the gift, the more difficult the task to be done.

"Take it! If you don't accept it, then I will have all these things thrown out!" Abdulmecid I responded domineeringly: "Things sent from my hands, There is absolutely no possibility of taking it back!”

"If that's the case, then we accept it?" The Wallachian minister couldn't resist the temptation. He looked at the Moldovan minister and asked.

The Moldovan minister also swallowed his mouth and said: "Accept it! Accept it!"

"That's enough!" Abdul Meguid I laughed loudly, and the ministers and envoys in the palace also laughed together.

"Your Majesty, I don't know what you want us to do!" Since it has received a gift from the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire, Moldova naturally needs to do something for the Sultan.

"I hope that after you return, you can truthfully report to us the number, designation, and equipment of the Russian troops stationed in Moldova and the Principality of Wallachia! We need to know the details of this army!"

It's embarrassing to say that the Russian Empire has been stationed in the Principality of Wallachia for half a year, but it has never understood the types of Russian Imperial troops and the specific number of troops. The arrival of the envoys from the Principalities of Moldova and Wallachia enabled the Ottoman Empire to better understand the Russian Empire!

"Yes!" the Wallachian minister responded immediately.

Anyway, the Russian Imperial Army is stationed in Wallachia, and it can easily find what the Ottoman court wants by using a few tricks.

"The highest number is the list of liaison officers from the Russian Empire who have penetrated into the territory of the Ottoman Empire! I want to know who is colluding with Russia in an attempt to destroy the empire!" Abdulmecid I suddenly remembered what Valewski had told him After hearing the news that the Russian Empire had sent a liaison officer, he immediately said something murderous.

"Your Majesty, we cannot guarantee whether we can really get the list of liaison officers, but I can guarantee that I will do my best!" the Moldovan minister responded to Abdulmecid I.

"As long as you do your best to serve the empire, I will keep your contributions in mind!" Abdul Meguid I nodded slightly to the ministers of the two principalities.

Later, Abdul Mecid I discussed with the Minister of the Principality of Wallachia whether there were any recent movements of the Russian Imperial Army and whether a large amount of logistical supplies had been transported to the Principality of Wallachia!

After receiving a negative reply from the Principality of Wallachia, Abdulmecid I breathed a sigh of relief.

Judging from the current situation, it is impossible for the Russian Empire to carry out large-scale military mobilization.

Adequate preparations must be made before every military mobilization. Otherwise, we will face an embarrassing situation where logistical supplies cannot be maintained.

If we talk about the Cold Weapon Age, this situation was only a matter of food.

Just learn from the Mongols and plunder all the way. In the era of hot weapons, bullets, solid shells, and grapeshot are the key to a war.

Since the Russian Empire did not have large-scale logistical mobilization, it would be impossible for them to start taking action.

To be honest, the Ottoman Empire is also confused about the current behavior of the Russian Empire. It is a bit strange that the Russian Empire has not started taking action even though the negotiations have broken down and the threat of war has been issued.

After asking the ministers of the two principalities many things about the Russian Empire, Abdulmecid I ordered his attendants to send the two ministers out of the palace and find a place for them to settle.

After the ministers of the two principalities left, Abdul Meguid I gradually put away his generous smile, turned to a majestic expression and said, "Minister Effendi, how was my acting skill just now?"

"Your Majesty, you did a great job! There was no sense of disobedience during the whole process!" Fouad Efendi bowed his knee and saluted Abdul Meguid I.

"Very good!" Abdul Mejid I also nodded at the perfect acting skills of the material, and then showed a contemptuous expression and continued to stir-fry rice: "These two idiots and the grand duke behind them still want to In order to find a balance between the Empire and Russia, they don’t even look at what time it is now!”

"You are right! People on both ends of the spectrum will be severely punished!" Fuad Effendi nodded and responded to Abdul Meguid I.

Speaking of this, Abdul Meguid I showed an unnatural expression on his face, as if he had been pinched hard.

Not long after, Abdul Meguid I asked again. : "Minister Effendi, how do you want to answer me!"

"Your Majesty, please speak!" Fuad Effendi responded humbly to Abdulmecid I.

"Does the empire really need to cede the Danube Principality to survive?" Abdulmecid I asked with a serious expression.

After Fuad Effendi was silent for a moment, he replied: "Your Majesty, whether the Ottoman Empire retains the Danube Principality does not depend on the Ottoman Empire itself, but on the French Empire. If the French Empire is happy to see the Ottoman Empire continue to retain the Danube Principality, then Then the Danube Principality could remain within the Ottoman Empire.

If they think the Danube should not stay with me..."

Having said this, Fouad Effendi said no more. He believed that Abdul Meguid I already understood what he wanted to say next.

"So, we are planning to lose the Danube Principality?" There was no emotion in Abdulmecid I's words, as if he was stating something that had nothing to do with him.

"All I can say is that I should be prepared to lose it..." Fouad Effendi responded.

"Alas!" Abdul Meguid I sighed, stood up, took a look at the portraits of previous monarchs hanging behind him, and shook his head.

The reason why Fuad Effendi persuaded Abdul Meguid I to give up the sovereignty of the Danube Principality was because of a conversation two days ago.

The two parties involved in the conversation were Valewski and Fouad Effendi.

Just two days before the Danube Principality arrived in Constantinople, find Shuyuan www. zhaoshuyuan.com Walewski received a telegram from France.

The content of the telegram was about the agreement between the French Empire and the Austrian Empire.

The telegram informed Walewski in detail about the distribution plan of the Danube Principality between the French Empire and the Austrian Empire, and asked Walewski to speak to the Ottoman Empire so that they could accept this decision.

Faced with the unrequited demands of Paris, Walewski could only accept it.

Walewski, who called Fuad Biefendi to the embassy, ​​explained the current situation to Fuad Effendi and expressed to Fuad Effendi that he must win over the Austrian Empire.

After hearing Walewski's opinion, Fouad Effendi agreed very much with Walewski's opinion and said that he would definitely convince Abdul Meguid I to accept this condition.
