If you don't shoot, you'll do your best!

In order to attack the Asia Minor Peninsula, Bulgaria formed a total of three fronts, totaling more than 600,000 troops, and launched simultaneous attacks on three battlefields, regardless of priority or priority.

Bulgaria made such a force, and the Ottomans could not stand it. The appearance of goods is the appearance of goods, and as soon as they enter the battlefield, their original form will be revealed!

Although the Ottoman Empire had more than 300,000 new-style armies, in essence, this modern army was no different from the old-fashioned army.

However, due to the replacement of better weapons and equipment, the combat effectiveness was still greatly improved than before, and the Bulgarian landing force in Bandmar was temporarily blocked by them.

But the other two landing sites, which were not the focus of the Ottoman defenses, had already fallen to the port of Calabrun, and the Third Front had already entered Izmir, the Ottoman stronghold.

Zonguldak is not much better, after the successful landing, the First Front did not blindly march to Ankara, but expanded its territory, and it looked like I was not leaving!

Well, it was supposed to be a show, to attract the anti-protection alliance to take the bait, how could Ferdinand really do his best?

As long as enough pressure was put on the Ottoman government to make the anti-Bulgarian alliance think that the main Bulgarian forces were already deep in Asia Minor, there was no need to fight the Turks now!

At this time, the Sudanese government could not stand it, and even if Bulgaria could not occupy the Asia Minor Peninsula if it was fought like this, it would definitely not be able to keep the most elite plain area in the coastal area!

The new Minister of War, Zhan Zhan Keke, said: "Great Sultan, the Bulgarians have taken the bait, is it time for us to ask our allies for help?" ”

I saw the Sultan with a gloomy face and said, "Waste, it's all a bunch of waste!" Bulgaria has just made a move, and you can't stop it......"

The Sultan vented his dissatisfaction for a while, but still chose to ask for help from the anti-protection alliance, otherwise he would let the war continue on his own soil, and even if he could win in the end, they would suffer heavy losses!

Unfortunately, neither George I of Greece, nor Carol I of Romania, nor Nicholas I of Montenegro were fools.

How can the three countries do it? Either the Bulgarian Army has suffered heavy losses in Asia Minor, or the Bulgarians have penetrated deep into Asia Minor and are pinned down, otherwise don't think about them coming out!

In case as soon as this side is launched, Bulgaria will withdraw its troops directly from the Asia Minor Peninsula, and then it will be too late for the three countries to cry, so everyone agrees that the Ottoman Empire should make sacrifices for the alliance and drag down the main army of Bulgaria!

Time flew by, and in a flash it was July.

At this time, the days of the Ottoman Empire were already sad. Izmir to the west has fallen, Manisa has been lost, and Salekhli is teetering on the brink of collapse.

Bandermar, on the southern shore of the Marmara Sea, is now finished, and Lake Kush has become Ferdinand's footbath.

The Black Sea was even worse, the important military position was lost to Sküdar, and the Bosphorus became Bulgaria's pocket.

The loss of territory, the Sultan government can still bear it, anyway, the Ottoman Empire is big enough to have land!

The problem is the loss of troops, which is tricky for the Sultan government, after Bulgaria launched the landing war, in just one month, the Ottoman Empire's 300,000 new army lost half, and the old army lost countless losses!

There is no way, ordinary people do not have the idea of going to the country with the Sudanese government, and there are even many people who regard the Bulgarian army as liberators.

Without popular support, conscription is a big problem! Don't look at the Ottoman Empire, which also had a population of more than 20 million, but every time it was time to recruit soldiers, anyone who had a little news hid.

Who is the Ottoman ****? Military salaries have been deducted, and soldiers often can't even fill their stomachs, who wants to do it?

As for the nation, ism? Shenma Dongdong, can you eat it?

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

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

The prime minister said with a wry 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-Bulgarian alliance does not enter the war again, we must be ready to end the war! ”

He is not talking nonsense, since the Bulgarian landing on the Asia Minor peninsula, all kinds of contradictions that had been suppressed by the Sudanese government have begun to erupt.

While Ferdinand was attacking militarily, it was certainly impossible not to forget to use political maneuvers.

For example, loans were given to the major rebels of the Ottoman Empire, and Bulgaria was promised that as soon as they achieved independence, Bulgaria would recognize it as soon as they achieved it.

Even getting the Entente to support them in building a nation is not non-negotiable. Anyway, it's all empty promises, and Ferdinand doesn't know how many preferential terms the intelligence department has.

As a result, the territory of the Ottoman Empire is now full of wolves!

……

The possible collapse of the Ottoman Empire is no secret now, as anyone with a modicum of vision knows.

War Minister Popov agitated on the side: "Your Majesty, if this war continues, it will not take more than half a year at most, and the Ottoman Empire will inevitably collapse and disintegrate!"

If we attack with all our might, this time will be even shorter, it will only take two months, and in less than a month and a half we will be able to conquer Ankara, and then the peninsula of Asia Minor will be in our pocket! ”

That's right, at this juncture when the Ottoman Empire could collapse at any time, Ferdinand actually asked the military to slow down the offensive, which naturally puzzled the military.

Ferdinand asked rhetorically, "And then?" After eating the peninsula of Asia Minor, what will happen to the millions of people on the peninsula?

Once the Ottoman Empire collapses, the great powers will definitely flock to it, and we have reached the limit of our acquisition of the Asia Minor peninsula.

And then we have to worry about these millions of people every day, every day, just like the current Ottoman Empire, plagued by rebellion every day? ”

Popov asked suspiciously: "Won't they all be deported?" Like we did before? ”

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

Now that it is the 20th century, nationalism has begun to awaken, and in the future we will expand our territory, and we will have to find a way to find a new piece of land for the owner of the original land to live in, otherwise the internal contradictions alone will be enough to collapse! ”

The more he spoke, the more depressed Ferdinand became, and he had to find a land for his enemies to survive? This is also cross-century news!

But countless examples from later generations told him that if he didn't do this, the national contradictions in the country would explode sooner or later!

Can't he be making up a national origin and withdraw from the Turks, right? That's!

Relations between Bulgaria and Italy have also become strained because of Tripoli, and on 6 July the Italians advertised a month-long military exercise in the Mediterranean region.

Oh, this is the Italians who made a move, in order to cheer up the anti-Bulgarian alliance, the Italians did their best to directly block the return of the Bulgarian Navy and create an opportunity for the old Greek fleet to blockade the waters of the Aegean Sea!

The actions of the Italians undoubtedly gave an anti-Bulgarian alliance a boost, and if the Italians were to block the coastline, then the Bulgarian Navy would be absent.

Then after the war of the anti-Bulgarian alliance, the Bulgarian army in Saliheli - it will not be able to return to the country to fight!

The Ottoman Empire also only needed to concentrate its forces and drag the other two routes, which would greatly reduce the military pressure on the anti-Bulgarian alliance.

The only fly in the ointment is that it is only a short month!

The unusual behavior of the Italians attracted the attention of the Germans, who did not believe that the Italians could really blockade the Bulgarian Navy for a month!

After all, neither the British fleet nor the French fleet in the Mediterranean Sea can be compared with the Italians!

As soon as Bulgaria asked the allies for help, did the Italians let it go or not?

However, the actions of the Italians, after all, also did reduce the military pressure of the anti-Bulgarian alliance, and the Germans did not say anything.

……

While Ferdinand was taking a lunch break, Foreign Minister Mejev hurried over and said, "Your Majesty, Greece, Montenegro, and Romania have just declared war on us!" ”

Ferdinand smiled slightly, and said with satisfaction: "Oh, the fish has finally taken the bait!" Notice, I'm going to give a speech to Congress later! ”

Both sides are calculating each other, but at the end of the day, it is still necessary to speak with strength!

The law of the jungle, survival of the fittest!

This is the law of survival in the age of imperialism, and if Bulgaria wins, then the seventh great power in Europe is born; If you lose, then continue to mix in the position of the quasi-powers, and the status is all based on strength!
