Port of Izmir, Turkey. ◆Www.◆

Izmir is an ancient city with a long history and has been a famous tourist destination in later generations. It is home to many monuments such as the ancient clock tower, the 15th-century Hissar Mosque, and the remains of the Temple of Artemi, one of the Seven Ancient Wonders of the World. There are also world-famous monuments such as the ruins of the ancient Greek city of Efes, the last retreat of the Virgin Mary, and so on.

The scenery here is also very beautiful, with green mountains and clear water reflecting the wide seaside promenade under palm trees, the Aegean Sea gently rippling against the long seawall, fish such as phoenixes and silver arrows jumping out of the water, and flocks of seagulls flying between the waves.

But these things were meaningless to the officers and men of the 10th cruiser detachment. Originally, in order to express their gratitude to them for escorting them all the way, the Ottoman side was going to entertain them for a few days in the local area.

However, having just gone ashore for a night's rest, in the morning they received an urgent order from the country, which said that the Ottomans were now about to be in a state of war, and that their 10th cruiser detachment should immediately begin to organize the evacuation of the aliens.

There is no way, Russia is about to fight with the Ottomans, and the personnel in the Ottomans must be withdrawn immediately, so as not to be affected by the pond fish when they get it. And now the 10th cruiser detachment was exactly in the Ottomans, and this task was naturally entrusted to them.

"According to the information provided to us by our embassy in Ottoman. There are about 12,030 permanent staff in Ottoman, most of whom are staff of the Asia-Europe Railway. Because to maintain the normal operation of the railway, this part of the personnel does not have to go back. There are about 4,700 people who are staying here for short periods of time such as business activities and tourism, and this is mainly the number of people who are evacuated this time. ”

The main officers of the 10th cruiser detachment had gathered for a meeting on the flagship Yinghe, and now it was the chief of staff who was briefing.

"This evacuation operation is divided into land and sea routes. According to the arrangement of the superiors, most of them will take the train back to China via the Guò Asia-Europe Railway. Only people in the vicinity of the seaport, and those who are far from the railway, are evacuated by sea. ”

"At present, all our embassies and consulates in Ottoman have notified us to gather our people who need to be evacuated at various assembly points. We are responsible for the meeting point of eight port cities, including Istanbul, Izmir, Tekirda, Antalya, and Bandarma......"

After the chief of staff finished briefing on the situation, Li Ang looked at the map again and said, "If we want to evacuate the personnel as much as possible, our detachment had better split up." We now have six boats, first go to Istanbul, Tekilda and other places, pick up people and then go back here to gather, then pick up the locals, and finally pick up people in Antalya, and then we can go back......"

"I agree, splitting up is the most efficient. The commissar first approved of Leon's plan, and the other captains had no opinion.

At this time, a lieutenant colonel stood up and said: "Detachment leader, our oil tanker can't carry many people...... This is Captain Wang of the high-speed oil supply ship "Tsing Yi Island".

This time, because it was an ocean-going escort mission, and it was necessary to take care of the Ottoman fleet by the way, the 10th cruiser detachment also temporarily incorporated two auxiliary ships, that is, the "Tsing Yi Island" oil supply ship and the "Longmen Island" food supply ship.

Both of these are 10,000-ton ships, the "Tsing Yi Island" oil supply ship has a standard row of 15,500 tons, a maximum speed of 20 knots, and can carry 9,000 tons of heavy oil. The "Longmen Island" food supply ship has a standard row of 18,700 tons, a maximum speed of 20 knots, a backup reservoir and food cold storage on the ship, which can load 3,000 tons of fresh water and 5,000 tons of food, and there is also a desalination plant and a food and beverage processing plant on board, which can process and manufacture biscuits, bacon, fish floss, juice and other food and beverages.

Although the "Tsing Yi Island" is a 15,000-ton ship, most of the space is an oil depot, so you can't put people in the oil depot.

"Well, let's build some makeshift houses on the deck with scaffolding, planks, and canvas, and go to the nearest rendezvous point. Anyway, it won't be long, just hold on for a few days and wait for us to meet. Leon thought for a moment and said.

Immediately after the meeting, everyone got busy.

In the afternoon of the same day, the six Chinese ships left the port of Izmir and headed separately for their respective targets.

This evacuation of overseas Chinese was still very smooth, because there were not many Chinese people on this side, most of them went by rail, and less than 1,000 people went by sea with Li Ang.

..............................................................................

China's evacuation went smoothly, but Ottoman, one of the protagonists of the incident, was furious.

To say that the Ottomans were also really unlucky this time, originally they didn't have the heart to get involved in the European war, where is it bad for neutral countries to count money? The European war is a super big pit, and now millions of lives have been pitted into it.

The Ottoman Empire lost more than half of its territory in Europe due to the Balkan Wars, and lost more than 3 million people, and now there are less than 23 million people in the country.

Moreover, the most important point is that the Ottomans in this plane did not order battleships from the British. Everyone knows that in the history of the original time and space, an important reason why the Ottomans entered the war was that they ordered two super dreadnoughts in the British, and they were shamelessly hacked by the British!

One of the two battleships was the Ryssadih class, as an expanded and improved version of the Royal Navy's latest warship George V, which made the long-awaited Ottoman Navy look at it and immediately placed an order to start construction of two ships, the first ship of which was the Ryth Sadih. This time, the British did an uncharacteristically and conscientious way, not thinning the armor of the warship like the battleships sold to other countries, but giving a full 12-inch waterline armor belt (the Chilean battleship Admiral Latol, which was under construction at the same time, had only a 9-inch thick armor belt). With Niu Niu's rituals all over the ground, his intentions are very suspicious, and it is estimated that Ya has never prepared to deliver goods to Turkey, and this is indeed the case. After the battleship was hacked, it was renamed the "Ireland" and incorporated into the British Navy.

The other is the Sultan Osman I, a relict of the multi-turret cult, a unique seven-turret battleship. The ship was originally ordered by Brazil, which was later forced to resell it due to doubts from a powerful heavy equipment faction within its navy. At the end of 1913, the ship was resold to Turkey and continued to be built, and after the outbreak of World War I, it was hacked by the British, and then incorporated into the British Royal Navy, and was named "Agincourt".

You must know that the Turks spent a full 7 million pounds (about 68.13 million yuan) on these two super dreadnoughts, Niu Niu slaughtered the Ottoman chickens in terms of price, and the cost of these two battleships did not exceed 4 million pounds at most (the better Iron Duke class is only 1.89 million pounds). This money is the money that Turkey has made up by tightening its belt, and it is okay to be slaughtered in terms of price, but now even the warship is hacked by Niu Niu, and no one can stand it. So the Turks, angered, joined the camp of the Central Powers.

However, there were some changes in this plane, originally Turkey was also preparing to order it in the United Kingdom, but at that time, China's Fuxi-class was launched, and the US Navy also took a fancy to this warship and immediately announced that it had also begun to build it. Stimulated by this, Niu Niu and other powers also adjusted their shipbuilding plans. As a result, the Turks' intention to order was insignificant, and the Turkish representatives who went to order the warships were given a cold reception and a blank look in London, and when they offered to review the drawings, they were not only rejected, but also ridiculed. The Turks also have a temper, and they are treated so almost humiliatingly, so buy a ball!

Come on, you British Empire Ox Fork, Lao Tzu will not sell it! The Turkish delegation went home in a huff.

In the history of the original time and space, Turkey was also harassed by the British, but it was not so strict, and they had no other choice at that time, so they could only pinch their noses and admit it. At that time, there were only a few first-class powers capable of building dreadnoughts, and the countries of the Black Sea and the Mediterranean, such as France, Italy, Austria-Hungary, and Russia, had no hope, and they certainly would not be willing to add an opponent to themselves. The Germans could, but they were busy making dumplings, and they didn't have enough shipbuilding capacity to build their own ships, and they couldn't free up the dockyard for the Ottomans to build. As for the United States and Japan, they have both ability and leisure, but the Ottomans do not look down on them. Moreover, Britain, as the world's number one navy, is still very capable of bluffing.

But this plane is a little different, because of the intensification of the shipbuilding race, the Ottomans did not hang themselves from a cow and a tree, and after they were angry, they were ready to choose from other countries. And China's Fuxi class has been tested in actual combat, has manufacturing capabilities, and the most important thing is that it can not give cash, so Turkey tends to choose Chinese products after seeing the results of the Sino-Japanese naval war.

Facts have also proved that Chinese products are indeed more conscientious, and they have ordered a fleet in China, and the total cost is only more than 12.1 million pounds, which is far more powerful than the Riessadeh-class battleships they originally planned to order, and the unit price is only 3.5 million pounds. The most powerful Fatih-class aircraft carrier in the world is only 1.5 million pounds per unit. Six Minjiang-class light cruisers £4.2 million, six Zhuhai-class destroyers £1.62 million, and six Type 901 submarines £1.38 million. On top of that, the ships cost less than £5 million in cash, and the rest were exchanged for useless sand and physical goods.

In other words, the Ottomans in this plane were not hacked by Niu Niu, and they did not have the heart to get involved in the European war. Now they are happy just to collect tolls from the Eurasian railway, not to mention the money they make from selling supplies to the Allies.

But the Entente countries could not see them living happily, no, Russia came to the door and asked to lend them money. This kind of request is obviously bullying, and Osman certainly would not agree to it. So Russia used this as an excuse to declare war on them.

This is simply a person sitting at home, and the disaster comes from heaven, and he is really lying down and getting shot.
