Istanbul, the capital of the Ottoman Turkish Empire, was where the peace conference of the world war was taking place. However, the disagreement between the Chinese Empire and the Kingdom of Prussia temporarily suspended the peace conference. This has made the situation in Istanbul a little tense, with many fearing that the negotiations will break down, and some even worrying about whether a new big war will break out as a result. And what position did the Ottoman Empire take in the event of a new war? Whether to side with the Chinese Empire or on the side of the Kingdom of Prussia.

Inside the palace, the Ottoman Turkish Sultan Abdul. Mejid I was roaring at the ministers.

"What the hell is going on? Why did good negotiations evolve into what they are now? I don't care what you do, but I must ensure that the peace conference is brought to a successful conclusion. In addition, it is not possible to influence the interests of the Ottoman Turkish Empire! ”

"Your Majesty, the differences between the Chinese and the Prussians on the British question are too great. The Chinese were determined to prevent the Prussians from interfering in Britain, but the Prussians were unwilling to give up their interests in Britain. The contradictions between the two countries have reached a point where it is difficult to reconcile. I'm even worried that this will lead to another war between the two countries! "Ali. Pasha appeared pessimistic.

"Hell! Another outbreak of war? How is this possible? Those Chinese and Prussians, are they still capable of continuing to fight? "Abdul. Mejid I was shocked. After a year of war, the Ottoman Empire had exhausted all its national strength. If it weren't for the fact that the war had been won in the end, I am afraid that fierce conflicts would have erupted in the country long ago. Even so, he was still waiting to plunder a lot of wealth from this peace conference to develop the country. Calm the anger of the people. If the war started again, the Ottoman Turkish Empire would collapse directly. Abdul. Mejid I didn't want that to happen.

"陛xià. The Kingdom of Prussia probably did not want to fight. However, the Chinese Empire had enough spare strength to continue the war. If the Prussians resolutely do not back down. I think war is inevitable! "Mustafa. Lester. Pasha also said.

"Damn the Prussians, they can't do it!" Abdul. Mejid I couldn't help but curse. Although, he also coveted the wealth of Britain. However, he was self-aware and knew that the Ottoman Turkish Empire could not compete with the Chinese Empire, so he rationally chose to give up and concentrate on the Ottoman Turkish Empire's goal in the Balkans and Ukraine, striving to consolidate the interests of the Ottoman Turkish Empire in these two places. As for the rest. It's best to be able to get that, and if you can't get it, that's okay. Where is the Kingdom of Prussia, knowing that it is not the opponent of the Chinese Empire, but still provoking the Chinese Empire like this, isn't it looking for death?

"Yes, Your Majesty. If war broke out between the Chinese Empire and the Kingdom of Prussia, which side should the Ottoman Turkish Empire be on? "Ali. Pasha asked. Once war breaks out, it's important to take sides. Ottoman Turkish Empire. Once again, we have to be on the side of the winners. At least in this way, the interests of the Ottoman Turkish Empire could be guaranteed.

"Sue the Prussians, if they do not back down, then. Once the war between the Chinese Empire and the Kingdom of Prussia broke out, the Ottoman Turkish Empire would be on the side of the Chinese Empire! "Abdul. Said Mejid I.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Ali. Pasha nodded. He knows. Abdul. Mejid I hoped to take the opportunity to threaten the Kingdom of Prussia so that it could compromise and retreat. Avoid another outbreak of war.

Next, Ali. Pasha and Mustafa. Lester. Once again, Pasha visited the delegation of the Kingdom of Prussia. The attitude of the Ottoman Turkish Empire was expressed to them. There is no doubt that the Ottoman Turkish Empire's statement made the delegation of the Kingdom of Prussia very unhappy, and at the same time, it also made them feel a great pressure. Without the support of the Ottoman Turkish Empire, they wanted to fight the Chinese Empire alone, no matter how you look at it, it is like hitting a stone with an egg! If you don't do it well, you will pay an extremely heavy price.

When Ali. Pasha and Mustafa. Lester. After Pasha left the embassy of the Kingdom of Prussia in the Ottoman Turkish Empire, everyone's faces were gloomy as if they could drip water.

"Damn, these Turks, why are they so daring? Even if they give us a show of support, the Chinese Empire will be jealous. In this way, we will be able to negotiate with the Chinese Empire for the next step and strive for more benefits for us! "Frederick. Crown Prince William cursed. Originally, they also wanted to use the support of the Ottoman Turkish Empire to force the Chinese Empire to make concessions. But now, in the face of the Chinese Empire, which remained tough, the Ottoman Turkish Empire was directly cowardly.

"Your Excellency, what should we do now?" Foreign Secretary Albrech. Feng. Count Ron was a little worried. The current Kingdom of Prussia is like playing with fire! If a war breaks out because of their relationship, the consequences will be unimaginable. The responsibility is not even something that they can afford.

"If we don't get any more support, we have to compromise!" Otto. Feng. Prime Minister Bismarck said with some frustration. The gap between the Kingdom of Prussia and the Chinese Empire was too great. In order to make up for the gap as much as possible, the Kingdom of Prussia had to do everything possible to strengthen its own strength. But now it seems that the Chinese Empire is also doing everything possible to curb the development of the Kingdom of Prussia, which directly makes the Kingdom of Prussia have to compromise.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, there is no way around it. The Chinese Empire is too powerful to compare with them with our current strength. We have to compromise first and then find a way to develop our own strength. Wait until we have the ability to challenge the Chinese Empire, and then settle accounts with them! Count Moltke said. It's just that everyone knows that if the Kingdom of Prussia wants to challenge the strength of the Chinese Empire, the possibility will be very small.

At this time, the ambassador of the Kingdom of Prussia to the Ottoman Turkish Empire hurriedly entered the office, his face very ugly.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Your Excellency the Prime Minister, this is a telegram from His Majesty the King!" The ambassador sent a telegram to Otto. Feng. In the hands of Prime Minister Bismarck.

Otto. Feng. Chancellor Bismarck suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, and he took the telegram and immediately read it. And his face also turned pale at this moment.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, what happened?" Frederick. Crown Prince William asked anxiously.

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, see for yourself!" Otto. Feng. Prime Minister Bismarck handed the telegram to Frederick. Crown Prince William.

"Damn! Those damned yellow-skinned monkeys, who actually threatened Prussia with war? Bastards, do they think that Prussia is really afraid of them? "Frederick. After reading the telegram, Crown Prince William immediately shouted loudly.

Foreign Secretary Albrech. Feng. Count Ron and Count Moltke also hurriedly took the telegram and read it. After reading it, the faces of the two became very ugly.

"Guys, tell me what are we going to do now?" Otto. Feng. Chancellor Bismarck asked.

"Your Excellency, this is the Chinese Empire's blackmail against us. They mobilized the army and navy to approach the border only to put pressure on the Empire. I think the Chinese should not have the courage to break out into war again! Count Moltke said first.

"But if we don't compromise, war will really break out. First of all, our shipyards will be destroyed by the Chinese, including the 'Brandenburg-class' battleships that are under construction, will also be destroyed. And, in the future, it is estimated that we will never have the opportunity to develop the Navy again! "Foreign Secretary Albrech. Feng. Earl Ron said. In the event of a war, the navy of the Kingdom of Prussia would definitely become the target of the Chinese Empire's key attack, not only the naval fleet would be destroyed, but even the shipyards would not be spared. When the time comes, will the Kingdom of Prussia still have the strength to fight?

"Do we have to bow our heads like the Chinese? Once they had plundered a great deal of wealth from England, it would be even more difficult for the Kingdom of Prussia to catch up with them! "Frederick. Crown Prince William still seemed very unwilling.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, we have no other way now. After a year of war, we won a great victory, but we also almost exhausted our national strength. If war broke out again, the Kingdom of Prussia would simply not be able to hold out. At that time, not only will all the benefits we gained in this war be lost, but even the Kingdom of Prussia will be destroyed! "Albrech. Feng. Count Ron persuaded.

Although I don't want to admit it, however, Frederick. Crown Prince William also knew this to be true. If the war starts now, the Kingdom of Prussia will definitely be defeated. Their only chance is to seize the time to digest the benefits of this war. In the future, there may be the strength to challenge the Chinese Empire.

"It seems that this time we had to compromise. Remember, ladies and gentlemen, this is a disgrace to the Kingdom of Prussia. In the future, we must find a way to wash away this shame! "Otto. Feng. Prime Minister Bismarck, after a moment's hesitation, made up his mind.

At this point, the Kingdom of Prussia had no choice but to bow to the Chinese Empire. Otherwise, they will only pay a greater price. (To be continued......)
