However, Tsar Alexander III in Moscow did not have such a good time.

Although Britain, France, Austria, Denmark and other countries jointly dealt with the Kingdom of Prussia, the Prussian army in Tsarist Russia did not withdraw much. The only consolation was that, in any case, the Prussians were finally outnumbered, and with the help of British warships and the French and Danish attacks, the Prussians were unable to gain a foothold in St. Petersburg, and the Russians finally regained St. Petersburg.

But what made Alexander III unbearable was that the territory of Tsarist Russia, which was originally occupied by Austria and the Ottoman Empire, that is, the east of the Principality of Poland, the area around the Principality of Kiev and the Crimean Peninsula and other Black Sea regions, he was ready to pay a little more for other aspects and then get it back from the two countries, but what he didn't expect was that the robber country in the east openly claimed to help the Allied Kingdom of Prussia, The Western Expeditionary Army of Siberia and the Caucasus, which had captured Tsarist Russia the year before last, brazenly invaded the area around Kiev and the Crimean Peninsula and other regions, and directly attacked the Austrian army and the Ottoman army here.

Moreover, even if there were surplus troops, Alexander III would not dare to directly tear his face with the Chinese Empire. After all, these regions today are no longer the territory of the Russian Empire. Those bandits from the East had been planned for a long time, they had snatched the territories from the armies of Austria and the Ottomans, and the Russian Empire really had no reason to go to war with the Chinese Empire to demand that they return these territories, and Alexander III knew that the Russian Empire had finally spent a huge price to conclude a peace treaty with the Chinese Empire, and once they tore their faces and went to war again, according to their current strength, the Russian Empire really had little hope of resisting the Western Expeditionary Army of the Chinese Empire. How dare you go to war and ask for trouble?

It's just a pity that the vast and incomparably rich land was robbed by the robbers of the East. The only consolation for Alexander III was that St. Petersburg was recaptured, and Moscow was retained, and his position as tsar was secured. As for the land that was separated by the rebellions of Finland and Poland, as well as the land that was snatched away by the Chinese Empire, when Tsarist Russia became strong in the future, there was always a chance to snatch it back. Alexander III felt that he was still young and had an opportunity, and as long as he was in the position of Tsar, he was confident that in the near future, he would be able to lead the powerful Tsarist army to defeat all enemies and regain all the territories that belonged to Tsarist Russia.

Returning to the chaotic European battlefield, the Franco-Prussian War, which was originally the most fierce, was thought to be stable because of the defeat of France, but the civil strife in France began again, and a group of workers and soldiers and urban hooligans started the Paris Commune to form a people's revolutionary army that exceeded the French Imperial Army, and even directly tore up the armistice agreement signed with Prussia, and drove away the Prussian army besieging Paris, and then began to contact the rebel armies in other parts of France to establish the French People's Commune Republic. This is not to mention, but also affected Spain and the German Confederation, where there was also a large-scale rebel army, ousting the Spanish temporary regency and the royal family, and forming the Spanish People's Commune Republic.

As a result, the whole of Europe panicked.

The war between the original Austrian Empire and Prussia over Bohemia and eastern Poland caused by fierce fighting for more than a month, each losing nearly 10,000 troops, now saw this scene, and both took the initiative to stop fighting. They were afraid that there would be a situation in the country, as in France and Spain, about the so-called proletarian rebellion and the establishment of some people's commune republic.

In fact, in the German Empire, there were already large-scale riots in Berlin and Frankfurt in former Prussia and Munich in Bavaria, and the troops of the German Empire hurriedly returned home to suppress the rebellion. The Austrian Empire was slightly better, with the exception of Vienna, Graz, Linz, etc., the number of workers in the other cities was not large, and the rebellion was quickly put down. At this time, the strength of the German Empire was even more strained, and the Austrian Empire was overjoyed, immediately sent troops, captured Prague, and took advantage of the opportunity of the uprising of more than 100,000 workers in Munich, Bavaria, to mobilize 100,000 troops to send troops to Bavaria, and demanded that the Kingdom of Bavaria secede from the German Empire and join the Austrian Empire by force.

Although the German Empire was short of troops, it was not without countermeasures, and it was possible that under Bismarck's planning and contact, the Kingdom of Italy also participated in this European war: Italy took advantage of Austria's fierce battle with the German Empire and Bavaria, and sent 50,000 troops to attack the territory of the Austrian Empire in the northern part of the Veneto region, targeting the Adriatic coast and the southwestern Tyrol region of the Austrian Empire.

At the same time, the Ottoman Empire was also under siege on all sides!

With the Chinese Empire's westward expeditionary army as the main force, nearly 100,000 troops and 80,000 Persian troops invaded the territory from the eastern part of the Ottoman Empire, and at the same time, the territory originally occupied by the Ottoman Empire, the Crimean Peninsula and other areas around the Black Sea were all occupied by the Chinese Empire's nearly 100,000 troops on the northern route.

The entire territory of the Tsarist Empire, which the entire Ottoman Empire had captured in more than a year, and the territories that had finally been ceded by the Tsarist Russia, were all lost. In a matter of months, the armies of the Persian Kingdom and the Chinese Empire captured the Caucasus, Armenia, Al-Ar, Mosul, Baghdad and other provinces, and continued their offensive into the Euphrates Valley and the Asia Minor Peninsula.

At the same time, the Khedive Ismail I of Egypt under the rule of the Ottoman Empire made it clear that he would rebel against the Ottoman Empire, claiming that he would lead the Egyptian people to resist the tyranny of the Ottoman Turkish Empire, and raised 80,000 troops to attack the suzerainty Ottoman Empire.

The nightmare of Ottoman Turkey was not only that, in the northwest, the original vassal states, the Kingdom of Serbia and the Kingdom of Greece, also united, together with nearly 70,000 troops, first to capture Bulgaria, and at the same time to take a warship, across the Dardanelles, attacking various islands, actually trying to divide up the European part of the Ottoman Empire.

The Alawites of Egypt, having seen the Serbian and Greek armies moving to the north, also stepped up their attack on Turkey. Obviously, Ismail I of the Alawite Dynasty had the idea of replacing the Ottoman Empire, and after occupying Syria and Beirut, he simply gave up going north to avoid conflict with the Chinese Empire and the Persian army, and went north directly by warship, with an army of 70,000 troops directly approaching Istanbul.

This scene is exactly the same as the Egyptian army attacking the capital of the Ottoman Empire 26 years ago, the only difference is that there were four major empires such as Britain, France, Russia, and Austria to support the Ottoman Empire and attack Egypt, but now because of the existence of the Chinese Empire, everything has changed! Britain was already underarmed, and both the navy and army were still on European soil to deal with the newly formed German Empire; And France is even more self-sufficient, and even the government has changed two terms in succession, and it is in chaos at all; Russia has no say at all, not even a single warship, and cannot make any sound; The same is true of Austria, which is attacked by the armies of the Chinese Empire in the north and the Kingdom of Italy in the south. Only Britain sent a small detachment of the Mediterranean Fleet to the Dardanelles, but because of the tacit alliance of the Greek fleet and the Egyptian fleet, they did not dare to act rashly and could only give verbal warnings, but they were completely ignored by the two, and Britain could only sigh.

In desperation, the Ottoman Sultan Abdulaziz could only send the Ottoman Foreign Minister Fouad Pasha to the Egyptian army commander to sue for peace, demanding that Egypt withdraw its troops, and that the Ottoman Empire was willing to recognize the independence of the Alawite Dynasty in Egypt, permanently recognize Ismail I as the Sultan of Egypt, and was willing to cede Palestine, Lebanon, Syria and other regions to the Alawite Dynasty. However, the Egyptian army was unmoved, and the Ottoman Empire agreed to the territorial claims of Greece and Serbia, and gave up all the European territory 50 kilometers west of Istanbul in exchange for a truce between the two countries in order to concentrate its forces against the Egyptian army. At the same time, the Ottoman foreign minister, Fouad Pasha, asked the Chinese Empire for peace, knowing that as long as the Chinese Empire was willing to cease fighting, Persia would be completely under the command of the Chinese Empire and would inevitably retreat.

Unexpectedly, the Western Expeditionary Army of the Chinese Empire really agreed. They demanded that the Ottoman Empire cede Georgia and Armenia, as well as western Turkey and Mosul, to the Kingdom of Persia, while the rest of the vast areas centered on Baghdad Province would be supported by the Chinese Empire to establish an independent state and form the Kingdom of the Arab Federation.

At this time, the Ottoman Empire eased up, organized the national forces to rescue Istanbul, and attacked the Egyptian army. I have to say that the foreign minister of the Ottoman Empire, Fouad Pasha, has a really good vision, he knows that whether it is the Chinese Empire, or Persia, or Greece, etc., because of ethnic and cultural relations, there is no attempt to completely annex the Ottoman Empire, and the Alawite Dynasty in Egypt is different, this original vassal state of the Ottoman Empire, has the ambition to completely replace Turkey, therefore, he went all out to deal with Egypt, and the two armies fought fiercely in Istanbul.
