That's always the case with the big names in every country.

They may have had a strong revolutionary ideal, but when the revolution in their minds succeeded, and the revolutionary leader left or died for various reasons, his once loyal followers would have all kinds of ideas.

For example, the distribution of rights.

This is true in any regime

Previously, Inonu was the Chief of the General Staff of the Republic of Turkey, and when Kemal died, Inonu took over the power of the former leader and sat in the position of former leader.

His former close comrades-in-arms became his subordinates.

Or more accurately, became the one who worked for him

Originally, this was nothing, but when an external force began to push the inner world of these "migrant workers" and opened up their ambitions, everything became a little different.

Ernst. Marshal Bram told Goreis in his own way:

You, too, can gain the same great rights as Inonu!

Of course, the prerequisite is that it must cooperate with Germany

After thinking about it for a long time, Goris did not overcome himself, but chose to agree to Ernst. Marshal Bramm's advice:

Serve as the consul of the Turkish Provisional Government and cooperate with Germany in all aspects!

There is nothing surprising about this, such a thing has already happened in France once in Germany. The partner they chose to work with was actually more difficult for Germany to cooperate with than Goris:

Petain!

Once a French hero, a German puppet after the next.

Things are always so wonderful. It's so hard to grasp

In Ernst. The Turkish Provisional Government, strongly supported by Marshal Brem, was formed at the fastest speed.

Archon Gores in Ernst. With the consent of Field Marshal Brem, the "Free Army of the United Turkish-Turkish" was formed, which was jointly commanded by Germany and Turkey, and his own confidant, Major General Tavas, was appointed commander-in-chief. Major General Iligru, who had previously surrendered in Choblou, was appointed deputy commander-in-chief.

At the same time, 30,000 people were selected from the captured Turkish army as the first soldiers of the Free Army.

Wang Weiyi generously returned their weapons and provided them with thirty German tanks to replenish their strength

At present, the situation in Turkey has been preliminarily carried out in accordance with Wang Weiyi's assumption.

The military and civilians of Istanbul initially dispelled the fear of the Germans. Judging by the current performance, the Germans fully fulfilled their promises.

These disciplined troops did not infringe on the interests of the locals

Both for the local natives of Istanbul. The Germans treated the immigrants who followed without discrimination and took an impartial attitude.

The Turkish Provisional Government, which had just been established, also issued several orders in one go. They all have one purpose:

Stabilize the situation on the ground in Istanbul as soon as possible

It's a virtuous circle. The repression by the occupying forces has only fueled the revolt of the locals.

Bread. Many times more useful than bayonets!

Ernst. Once again, Marshal Bramm's words were verified

The residents of Istanbul gradually recovered from the panic, but Turkish President Inonu soon fell into a great panic.

60,000 Turkish elite troops, under the ferocious onslaught of the German army, Istanbul did not hold even a day.

And the news that came with it also made Inonu fall into great anger and sorrow:

Marshal Goris, whom he trusted immensely, turned out to betray himself!

The provisional Turkish Provisional Court, at the behest of Inonu, announced that Goris, who had been imposed, was deprived of the title of marshal, as well as all the positions he held. and sentenced Marshal Goreis to death in absentia.

These are just superficial articles, and now the most important thing is. How to quickly reverse this huge passive situation in Turkey

Relying only on Turkey's own strength, it will definitely not be able to do this, 800,000 Turkish troops, 60,000 were eaten by the German army at one time, and if such a battle is fought a few times, I am afraid that even the strength to defend the capital Ankara will be gone.

It was necessary to rely on the support of external forces, and Inonu was firm in his thoughts.

The German raid was so sudden that Turkey was not given any time to prepare, and the hasty Inonu hastily made the decision to declare war on Germany.

The Turks' retreat was completely blocked, and they had only one mind to carry on the battle to the end

In his presidential office, Inonu urgently received the British ambassador to Turkey, Swilling. Lehr, and the Soviet ambassador to Turkey, Shin Morksky.

During the talks, President Inonu informed the ambassador of the defeat of the Turkish army in Istanbul and demanded that Britain and the Soviet Union immediately provide Turkey with necessary and urgent military reinforcements.

At this time, the British and Soviet ambassadors were actually very conflicted.

On the one hand, Turkey, which had been vacillating, finally defected to the arms of the Allies because of the surprise attack launched by Germany, which greatly strengthened the strength of the Allies.

But on the other hand, the German army was so strong on the Turkish battlefield that it was simply unable to resist it with the strength of the Turkish army itself. But now Britain and the Soviet Union are also suffering unspeakably.

The British army was defeated again and again in the European theater and barely held back Erwin in the African theater. Rommel's powerful offensive, if the Turks were to be reinforced, would inevitably disperse the British forces again.

What makes Britain even more difficult is the current attitude towards war in Britain.

In Ernst. After the return of Field Marshal Bream, Germany decisively stopped bombing Britain and expressed its attitude of "friendship, peace, negotiation" on many occasions.

Within Britain, there have been calls for secret negotiations with Germany.

It was under these circumstances that the military parade of the Free French Movement, which had been formulated, was cancelled

Although Germany's undeclared war on Turkey has made the British top brass feel a huge crisis, this will not have a serious impact on ordinary British people.

Is it wise to divide Turkey's troops in such a situation? Will it be able to gain the support of the domestic population?

And the same was true of the USSR.

After the battles of the Kharkov and Sevastopol fortresses, the Soviet army suffered great losses in terms of strength, and now it was urgently needed to form new corps and rearm and replenish them.

The division of troops under such circumstances would be seriously disadvantageous to the Soviet Union, and could even prompt the German army to launch a new large-scale offensive in advance

I have to admit that Ernst. The timing at which Marshal Bram chose to attack Turkey was too advantageous for Germany. He accurately captured the embarrassing period of Britain and the Soviet Union!

But at the same time, Turkey must not be lost, this is a place with an extremely strategic location!

The Republic of Turkey is located in Western Asia and Southern Europe, including the Anatolian Peninsula in Western Asia and the Eastern Thrace region of the Balkan Peninsula. It is bordered by the Black Sea to the north, the Mediterranean Sea to the south, Syria and Iraq to the southeast, the Aegean Sea to the west, Greece and Bulgaria, and Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan and Iran to the east. Between the Anatolian Peninsula and the Eastern Thrace region, are the Bosphorus, the Sea of Marmara, and the Dardanelles.

In particular, the Turkish Strait, known as the "throat of the world", is the only strait leading to the Black Sea in the Mediterranean, which includes the Bosphorus Strait, the Sea of Marmara and the Dardanelles Strait.

If it were left into the hands of the Germans, the consequences would be devastating.

After a heated argument and bargaining, Inonu and Swelling. Liel and Shenmorksky reached a preliminary agreement.

The Turkish army concentrated all its strength to block the German offensive and buy as much time as possible for Britain and the Soviet Union.

At the same time, Britain unilaterally provided Turkey with 350 tanks, 500 artillery pieces, and a corresponding series of military aid.

The Soviet Union would then supply Turkey with no less than 500 tanks, as well as 1,000 artillery pieces.

As for the support of the British and Soviet troops, it will reach Turkey in the fastest possible time

Although this is not all that Inonu wants, in the current situation, it is also the most helpless choice.

In fact, at this time, Inonu still had some illusions, although the German side repeatedly accused Turkey of taking the lead in provoking the war, but in fact, these are just official statements, and everyone knows what the truth is.

So in such a hungry situation, is there any possibility of opening secret negotiations with the Germans and forcing the Germans to retreat?

Even, for this it is possible to sacrifice some Turkish interests

Of course, the premise of all this is that the unstoppable offensive of the German army must be stopped, otherwise the Germans will never stop.

Inonu then appointed his chief of the General Staff, Field Marshal Glerumman, to command the entire Turkish army and set up a decisive battle on the line from Kükaxia to Bolu in an attempt to hold back the German offensive.

In addition to these, he sent a secret envoy to meet with the German ambassador to Turkey, Mr. Kahn, who had been expelled by himself and was preparing to return to Germany.

During the talks, the special envoy, who is responsible for the presidency, did not protest to Mr. Kahn, but asked whether there was any possibility of a peaceful settlement between the two sides.

Mr. Kahn knew all too well what a peaceful settlement really meant.

"I can't guarantee because that's Ernst. The army led by Marshal Brahm. Karn's words were tinged with regret, but then he added, "I'll try my best, though." (To be continued......)
