Chapter 129

The peace talks in London had just begun when Edel made improvements to rail transportation. Now the British Empire has not gone through two wars. Although it has not been as prosperous as the Victorian era, it is still so majestic and inviolable in the eyes of the Balkan countries.

The representatives of the Balkan countries have already arrived in London to wait for the representatives of the Ottoman Empire. They include Bulgarian Foreign Minister Tiras Rochi, Serbian Foreign Minister Milanovic, Greek Foreign Minister Constantine, Montenegro Foreign Minister Nidnoyav, Romanian Foreign Minister Barno Sk, European powers all sent representatives to participate in the London negotiations. Ottoman's representative foreign minister Kahevich also arrived in London on December 11.

In the negotiations that began on the 12th, the Bulgarian Foreign Minister Dilas Roch took the lead in handing the conditions given by the Balkan countries to the Ottoman representative foreign minister Kahevich. The conditions are simple. The Ottoman continental territories west of Enez to Midiya in the Black Sea are ceded to the Balkan countries, and all the islands on the Sea of ​​Love are also assigned to the Balkan countries. The treaty did not require the Ottoman Empire to indemnify or reduce the army.

Kahevich looked at the conditions in front of him, which was a very harsh condition for peace talks with Osman. But he still didn't forget his professional ethics and asked. "This condition is too harsh for the Ottoman Empire."

Bulgarian Foreign Minister Dilas Rocchi replied arrogantly. "This is our last condition. If your Excellency finds it too harsh, you can get the Ottoman army back on the battlefield."

After speaking, he still looked at Romanian Foreign Minister Barnosq. Barnosq knew what he meant. He had talked about it before. Now Bulgaria still owes Romania 4,000 square kilometers of territory. It is the uncle who owes the money. I had to say aloud. "Romania also thinks that this condition is already the biggest preferential treatment for Ottomans, and you don't want to push the border beyond Istanbul, right."

Hearing the words of Romanian Foreign Minister Barnosque, Kahveci must think about it. Now Romania, the most powerful country in the Balkans, has not yet ended, Ottoman has been beaten and collapsed. If he joins Romania, it might not be possible. Istanbul will also be captured by the Balkan countries.

The words of Bulgarian Foreign Minister Dilas Roch also received a response from Serbian Foreign Minister Milanovic. "This is the opinion of our Balkan countries. I hope you will consider it well. Forgot to say, we Serbia have sent an army to guard the front line together with Bulgaria."

After Kahveci heard the words of Serbian Foreign Minister Milanovic, he was not happy in his heart. They knew that a Serbian army had arrived outside Adrianople. After all, the uniforms were different and easy to identify, but they didn't know the scale. . Now that I heard it in person, he didn't know how to answer.

"The conditions you gave, I need to report to the government for decision. I am disaccompanyed."

The Minister of Foreign Affairs Kahevich said a short sentence and hurried away with the Ottoman negotiator, leaving behind a bunch of others.

After watching the Ottoman representative, Foreign Minister Kahevich left in embarrassment, the representatives of the Balkan countries present laughed loudly. This is the best ridicule of the people of the Balkans to the Ottomans who previously oppressed them.

The conditions of the Balkan countries towards the Ottoman Empire were passed back to the country by the Minister of Communications Kahevich. The harsh conditions made the government shocked and angry, but they had no good way to deal with the 700,000 troops of the Balkan countries. They had looked for Austria-Hungary and Germany before, but how they supported the performance of the Ottoman army, so there was no good way to do this.

However, the government's plight has given the opposition Ottoman Al-Shabaab see an opportunity. Before Al Shabaab was also due to ceding Libya, so that their prestige in the Ottoman Empire was also shaken. The Liberal and Concord Party took the opportunity to overthrow the Ottoman Youth Party in July 1912, but relying on the military prestige of the party leader Enver to keep the Joint Progress Committee. Now facing the situation where the Ottomans are about to cede territory again, the Al Shabaab sees an opportunity.

At a secret rally within the Al-Shabaab party, Enver told the members of the Al-Shabaab party. "As you have seen, the Liberal and Concord Party accuses our Al-Shabaab Party of cedeing the Libyan region as a traitor. But they are not merciful when facing the ceding of Macedonia and Thrace, and they claim that they can only seek peace. But Everyone has seen that the newly appointed commander-in-chief of the army, Nizam Pasha, is someone who knows nothing about military affairs. Look at what battles he fought. The 350,000 elite Ottoman army was consumed by him in just one month. It's all gone, and the enemy is about to come down. For the sake of the Ottoman country, we must do something."

His words resonated within the Al-Shabaab Party, which is dominated by young students, military officers, and intellectuals. They began to prepare to overthrow the government of the Liberal and Concord Party.

Enver, the leader of the Al-Shabaab party, whose full name is Ismail Enver Pasha, was born in Constantinople on November 22, 1881 and came from an Albanian family. His father is a local bridgekeeper~www.mtlnovel.com~ and his mother is a farmer in Albania. In 1903, he graduated from the Military Academy in Istanbul. He became a major in 1906 and was sent to the Third Army, stationed in Thessaloniki. During this time he joined a local organization called the "United Progress Committee".

In 1908, countries such as Austria-Hungary, Tsarist Russia, and the United Kingdom planned to split the weak Ottoman Empire. The Young Turks announced the "opposition to the government and the Level Agreement," demanding "freedom, equality, and fraternity" and launched a revolution to overthrow Sudan. Enver joined the revolutionary army at this time and became the leader of the army. After successfully seizing power, he strongly invited Germany to establish a military alliance and asked Germany to help reform the Ottoman army.

Therefore, the German government prefers Enver's Ottoman high-level who is biased towards them, and they are doing the same. When Enver was preparing to change Ottoman's current situation through a coup, the German government increased its funding for him, increasing him from 200,000 marks to 500,000 marks a month. And also through the military advisory group and ambassador in Ottoman to help and facilitate his operations.

The current Ottoman government is unaware of this and is still discussing negotiations. However, in the face of the Balkan countries' non-concession conditions, they are negotiating to accept the humiliating conditions.

At this time, the Al-Shabaab was ready for a reactionary coup. On January 23, 1913, as the commander-in-chief of the army, Nizam Pasha, was shot and killed at the entrance of the army department as a sign, the Al-Shabaab launched a coup, and the government did nothing about their coup. No defense. These Al-Shabaab members bloodbathed senior government officials, including the current prime minister Maha De Kay and other senior officials who died in this coup.

After the Al-Shabaab came to power, they tore up the armistice agreement with the Balkan countries, and the war in the Balkans began again.
