Although the Istanbul Peace Conference is over, the construction of a new world order will not be accomplished overnight. Although the victorious country was able to cut off the defeated country through the peace meeting this time, the contradictions between the victorious countries also became irreconcilable. It is foreseeable that the future world will inevitably become a world in which the Chinese Empire and the Kingdom of Prussia compete for hegemony. The Ottoman Turkish Empire, on the other hand, was a powerful country that fell on both sides. As for the Kingdom of Spain and the Kingdom of Belgium, they stood firmly on the side of the Chinese Empire.

In addition, there are still many unresolved issues at this peace conference. For example, Britain and France's huge overseas colonies, the Kingdom of Prussia and the Ottoman Turkish Empire, can be described as salivating over these colonies. However, the Chinese Empire, using its great military power, directly divided the ownership of these colonies. The Chinese Empire took the lion's share, while the Kingdom of Spain and Belgium occupied the minor. The Kingdom of Prussia and the Ottoman Empire were simply excluded, which shows how much resentment they had.

However, due to the strong military strength of the Chinese Empire, the two countries could only compromise temporarily. If the opportunity is right, a new round of struggle will inevitably start around these colonies in the future.

The defeated countries were undoubtedly the big losers, and they were all slaughtered by the victorious countries one by one, not only losing a large amount of territory, but also paying a large amount of war reparations. This makes the defeated country full of resentment towards the victorious country. Once the international situation changes, these countries will definitely fight again. After all, they still want to regain the loss of the war and regain the loss of Qiē in the war.

So, in essence. This time, the Istanbul Peace Conference did not solve the problem. Instead, the problem is exacerbated. The signing of a peace treaty was nothing more than a temporary truce. Those treaties imposed on the defeated countries. It is not recognized by the defeated countries at all, but is regarded as a disgrace. It can be said that although this war is over, at the peace conference, the seeds of war have been bought for the next war.

The Chinese Empire was undoubtedly the big winner, receiving a total of 7.2 billion Chinese dollars in war reparations, and the other countries did not all add up to the war reparations received by the Chinese Empire. In addition, in order to maintain its position, the British royal family also paid an additional 2 billion Chinese dollars. Added up. That's 9.2 billion Chinese dollars. This number rises even more if you add to this the plundering of the occupied territories by the Chinese* army.

It can be said that all the expenses of the empire in this war have been earned, and a lot of money has been earned. With this funding, the empire could further develop its own industry and at the same time speed up the digestion of the newly occupied areas, which could make the Chinese empire even stronger and ready for the next war. In the midst of the confrontation with the Kingdom of Prussia. The Empire was able to gain the upper hand.

After the conclusion of the peace conference, the Ottoman Turkish Empire, as the host, held a grand reception at the royal palace in Istanbul, and the delegations of the various countries participating in the peace conference seemed to have forgotten the previous contradictions. Have a drink. It's just that the delegation of the defeated country seems to be much more low-key. The delegation of the victorious country. Undoubtedly, he became the protagonist of the reception.

In particular, the delegation of the Chinese Empire was sought after by the envoys and delegates of other countries who attended the reception. At this peace conference. In addition to the representatives of the victorious and defeated countries, there were also envoys of many neutral countries. They are also eager to join the new world order. occupy an advantageous position in the future world order. However, there are not many neutral countries on the Eurasian continent. The whole of East Asia, Southeast Asia, North Asia and Central Asia were the territory of the Chinese Empire, and India in South Asia also became a loose federal state under the leadership of the Chinese Empire, and the princely states were the actual controllers, and the Chinese Emperor Long Yufei was only the nominal ruler of India. In fact, there is no real power at all, except in the vicinity of Kolkata. In Western Asia, the Kingdom of Afghanistan has become a small follower of the empire. The Kingdom of Persia was under imperial persecution. It can be said that the Chinese Empire is the only independent country left in Asia.

As for Europe, there are not many neutral countries, Sweden and Norway in Northern Europe are still a co-monarchy, and Finland is just an autonomous grand duchy under Russian rule. Denmark is a small European country. The other country is Switzerland, a permanently neutral country.

Africa, on the other hand, was a vast colony that had now been divided between China, Spain, and Belgium. The Ottoman Turkish Empire also had a territory of its own on the Mediterranean coast of North Africa.

The colonies of North America, the United States and Canada have all been included in the rule of the empire, only Mexico and Central America are still independent, and the countries of South America are also independent countries, but the strength of these countries is too weak.

It can be said that now the main regions of the world are occupied by several great powers of the Asia-Europe military alliance. In Latin America, on the other hand, there are quite a few independent countries. However, Latin America, which is poor and backward, has not yet received the attention of various major countries at all, and everyone's attention is still on the Eurasian continent. The imminent confrontation between the Chinese Empire and the Kingdom of Prussia will also be centered on the Eurasian continent.

Of course, with the development of industrial power and national power, in order to get more shining markets, the attention of the great powers will sooner or later be attracted by South America. When the time comes, there will definitely be a war.

In a sense, the Istanbul Peace Conference was nothing more than a temporary peace. Although the Asia-Europe military alliance won the war, it was exhausted by its own drag, so it had to end the war. However, the exception is the Chinese Empire, the most powerful country in the world.

The Chinese Empire won the status of world hegemon in this world war. Although, this hegemonic position will also face challenges from other countries. However, at this moment, all countries have recognized the hegemony of the Chinese Empire. Even if they were to challenge the supremacy of the Chinese Empire, it would be a matter for the future.

After the conclusion of the peace conference, the delegation of the Chinese Empire did not leave Istanbul immediately, they had other things to do.

On the morning of November 29th, the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Spain, the Duke of Valencia, and the Minister of Foreign Affairs, José Murphy. Morality. Count of Salamanca, Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Belgium. Rozhye and Foreign Secretary Henry. Morality. Bruchell, along with representatives of the Republic of Ireland and the Kingdom of Scotland, gathered at the embassy of the Chinese Empire in the Ottoman Turkish Empire. Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, the Chinese Empire hoped to establish closer ties between these hardcore allies and protectorates, and ensure that it would have more advantages in the future war situation in Europe.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the peace conference is over, and peace has returned to the world. However, I can tell you with certainty that this is only a temporary peace. A new war, perhaps, will break out in ten years' time. When the time comes, it will be a war on a much larger scale than this one. From now on, we must prepare for this war. Make sure we will still be the victors in the next war! Lin Zihao said solemnly.

Lin Zihao's stern expression and words made all the participants look solemn. They all know that Lin Zihao is not alarmist. With the contradictions between the Chinese Empire and the Kingdom of Prussia, they could absorb the fruits of this war in a maximum of ten years. When the time comes, in order to compete for world hegemony, the two countries will inevitably break out into war. And none of these countries can escape. Who told them that they were already tied to the Chinese Empire?

"I can also tell you very clearly that the protagonists of the next war will be the Chinese Empire and the Kingdom of Prussia. This time, we joined forces for the common good, but next time, for the sake of our own interests, we will also fight against each other, which is natural! Lin Zihao continued.

"If we can win the next big game, then we can be the real masters. If you lose the war, you can imagine for yourselves. I guess no one wants us to lose the war, right? Lin Zihao looked at everyone.

Of course, no one wants to lose the war, especially the Kingdom of Spain and Belgium, which sided with the victors. Although the cost of the war was somewhat large, the overall benefits were equally staggering. If they can win again next time, the benefits they will get will be even more amazing. However, if you lose, you will have to spit out all the benefits gained in this war.

"The Empire hopes that all countries can take advantage of this rare time of peace to further develop their strength, strengthen their military strength, and prepare for the next big war! We still have to win the next big battle! Lin Zihao said firmly.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, however, the enemy is too strong, no matter how hard we try, I'm afraid we won't be able to close the gap!" Shire. Prime Minister Rozhye said that this is undoubtedly a very desperate reality.

The others also nodded their heads, after all, the Kingdom of Prussia was like a behemoth, and they were all too weak. In the event of a war, they would most likely be crushed by the Kingdom of Prussia.

"Of course, the Reich has expected this, and in the future the Reich will continue to deploy heavy troops in various countries to defend against the Prussians with you. As long as we can survive the initial phase, our reinforcements will continue to arrive and eventually crush the Prussians! (To be continued......)
