February 2, 26th year of the Republic (192 AD), Wuhan.

"Mr. Wen, Bar Yu is fighting......" Gu Xiaolu hurriedly ran into the office with a telegram.

"Oh, they finally started fighting, I thought they were going to drag it out until next year......" Wen Deji took the telegram with some surprise, the telegram came from the Chinese intelligence officers in the Baryu area, and it gave a detailed account of the current situation and the current situation in various countries.

Located on the border of Europe and Asia, the Balyu region is the lower belly of Europe, choking the throat of the Black Sea and the Mediterranean, and its strategic location is very important. At the same time, the ethnic composition here is complex and the religion is diverse. Since ancient times, this has been the powder keg of Europe.

The Bal of the Native Plane exploded later than the original plane, but the temperature of this "Bal Yu Powder Keg" was high enough that it was only a matter of time before it exploded. The contradictions between Barr and the countries have reached the extreme, and coupled with the fanning of the flames by the great powers, the negotiations can no longer solve the problem, and can only be done once.

The Yugoslav nation has been under the rule of the Ottoman Empire for a long time since the Ottoman Empire defeated the Balyu coalition forces in the Battle of Kosovo in 138 and occupied the entire peninsula by force.

Beginning in the 19th century, nationalists in the Baryu region rebelled in an attempt to gain independence from the Ottoman Empire. In 183 Greece succeeded in becoming independent with the support of Britain, France and Russia, which greatly encouraged the Yugoslav peoples. As for Russia, the Eighth Russo-Turkish War was also launched in order to seize the Mediterranean Sea, and the Ottoman Empire was defeated and sued for peace, and the Treaty of San Stefano granted independence to Serbia and Montenegro, and Romania was united by Wallachia and Moldova, and a large Bulgarian principality was established, and Bosnia was granted "autonomy" (in fact, under the Austro-Hungarian Mandate).

With the support of Russia, Pan-Slavism became the mainstream ideology of the Balyu Peninsula, and the Balyu Peninsula countries also actively expanded their armies and carried out diplomatic work, seeking the support of the European powers, hoping to seize the territory of the Ottoman Empire on the Balyu Peninsula. In October 192, Serbia and Bulgaria entered into an alliance; In June, Montenegro, formerly known as: the Gate of Negro of Greece also participated; These four countries formed the Balyu League.

On February 1, 192, the Negoro (Montenegro) of Montenegro first declared war on the Ottoman Empire, and Bulgaria, Serbia, and Greece also issued an ultimatum to the Ottoman Empire on 7B, demanding that the Ottoman Empire withdraw from Baryu and give autonomy to all ethnic groups. The Ottoman government, of course, rejected this request and began to mobilize the army. This constituted a direct pretext for Barr's declaration of war on Turkey by the Alliance. On 9 February, Bulgaria, Serbia, and Greece also attacked the Ottomans.

By the time of the report, the armies of both sides had already pinched.

"Alright, notify the relevant personnel immediately, and convene a special meeting on Bar Yu affairs in the afternoon......" Wen Deji immediately ordered.

In the following hours, intelligence officers and diplomats from all sides also transmitted the relevant information, which was summarized by the Strategic Intelligence Analysis Bureau and then reproduced into a document and handed it to Wen Desi.

The participants had already arrived after lunch, and Mr. Wen asked them to read the relevant materials before starting the meeting.

Wen Desi said: "Now that everyone has understood the basic situation, let's talk about it now." How do we intervene in this Barr war? How do we intervene? Which side ...... side?"

In fact, the Great Powers had intervened before Baryu went to war. Tsarist Russia's support for the Balyu alliance was completely open, while the German-Austrian allies supported the Ottomans, and we supported the enemy if they were against it. Although Britain and France did not make a clear statement, they were also obviously biased. In the original time and space, this matter definitely didn't have China's share, but China on this plane was already a recognized power after pumping the rooster, and naturally had the qualifications to intervene.

Chief of the General Staff Xin Jie said: "I think it is more beneficial to help the Ottomans. This time the war is basically a definite defeat for the Ottomans, but our Asia-Europe railway still needs their cooperation, so even if they lose, we must support it. ”

Premier Zhang Lizheng also agreed: "That's right, just because they have a deep enmity with Russia, they should support Turkey." ”

In fact, the policy of supporting Turkey has long been decided by the top level of the Socialist Party, and now the bigwigs on both sides of the military and government have come out to speak, which is nothing more than to give a clear attitude to the following.

Located at the confluence of Europe, Asia and Africa, the Baryu Peninsula not only controls the gateway to the Mediterranean Sea and the Black Sea, but also controls the route to the Indian Ocean in the war.

The best situation in such a place is, of course, to control it in its own hands, but at this time, China's national strength is still limited, and its power cannot be projected over there. Then, in the current situation where you are unable to control the zhì, then let others not be able to control the zhì. So this time, Wen Desi is planning to make a-stirring stick and not let Niu Niu be beautiful.

"The humanitarian relief supplies that we stored in the Middle East in the past can be given to Turkey first. I'm going to give another batch," he said.

At this time, the Ottoman Empire was no longer the awesome Ottoman Empire of a few hundred years ago, since the nineteenth century, the country has been declining day by year, and now it is too weak to look good. And his opponent, Barr, was superior to the Ottoman Empire in terms of the number of soldiers and the quality of weapons, especially in the quality of artillery and the level of combat training of the army. What's more, Barr was supported by the alliance and the Entente, although Germany and Austria supported them, but because of Wilhelm II's hesitation, the strength was quite limited.

In this case, the Ottomans have absolutely no chance of winning unless they open the hanging. Wen Desi had no way to let them win at this time, after all, it was too far away, and the Asia-Europe Railway was not opened. Although the Ottomans cannot be allowed to win, they can ⊥ them to lose better.

"How's the ram doing?" asked Wendehe.

Wang Qi hurriedly replied: "Under our activities, the appointment of sending him to Bulgaria as a military attaché has been cancelled, and he has now gone to Thessaloniki to serve as the commander of a main infantry regiment, and his troops also have our strong support......"

"Very well, Turkey will definitely hit the streets this time, but we can't let Baryu win too easily. The main thing is to let the rams brush their prestige well. Anyway, they're also our satellites, hahahaha......" Wen Deji laughed.

Wen Desi has never had a good impression of the bunch of countries on the Balyu Peninsula, because this peninsula is rich in strange things, each one is better than the other. This time, they are waving the banner of "national liberation," but in fact, they are dog-eat-dog. In the original time and space, after they joined forces to fly the local chicken cart, they immediately pinched each other again with uneven spoils

The worst country in Europe is undoubtedly the "Pingduzhen Luda**", and the runner-up until the tenth place is on the Balyu Peninsula. The current runner-up is undoubtedly Serbia, a small but ambitious country that is hell-bent on building a "Greater Serbia". This "Greater Serbia" is the peninsula that includes most of the Balyu peninsula, including Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Old Serbia, Macedonia, Croatia, Slovenia and the regions of Srem, Vojvodina and Dalmatia. This time, Serbia is preparing to divide Albania, occupy Thessaloniki, and gain access to the Aegean Sea and the Adriatic Sea.

And several other countries are also very thoughtful. Greece's dream was to restore the Greek-Byzantine Empire, which spanned Europe and Asia. Guided by this "Great Greek Idea", it not only wanted to retake Crete, which was separated by a river from the Ottoman Empire, but was also preparing to expand in both the west and north directions, eating up large swathes of Macedonia and southern Albania.

Bulgaria attempted to realize the ideal of "Greater Bulgaria of San Steffano", monopolizing the Macedonian and Thracian regions, with ports such as Thessaloniki and Kavala, and access to the Aegean Sea.

The door of Negro (Montenegro) is not far behind, they also have their own ideas. Don't look at this little fart country is not easy to find on the map, but this big country is a standard small power, the Ottoman Empire at its peak conquered the entire Balyu Peninsula, and even came to Vienna, but in Montenegro, a small fart country, here again and again, kneeling once, rushing to the end of the street. Eventually, Montenegro became the only land in Baryu that was not conquered by the Ottomans. Of course, they are all in the nest, and they have good combat effectiveness when they defend their homes with home advantage, but if they want to pull it out and fight, then forget it. But now that it has such a good opportunity, it also wants to expand its territory, divide Novi Barsa, and forcibly occupy northern Albania on the border with Serbia.

So Mr. Wen plans to help them bleed this time and let them be honest.

Thessaloniki.

Thessaloniki is an ancient city that was once the capital of the ancient Macedonian kingdom. During the Roman period, it became an important trading point, with a Roman road connecting Byzantium (Constantinople) and Tillahi (present-day Durrës, Albania) for trade between Europe and Asia. In the Byzantine Empire, it was second only to Constantinople in importance and was one of the two most important commercial centers of Byzantium.

After being ruled by the Ottoman Empire, Thessaloniki became a provincial capital of the empire and one of the most important trading and commercial cities of the Ottomans. Opened by railway in 186 and built in 183-19o4 with a modern port, it is now one of the most important cities of the Ottomans and the most coveted target of the Balyu League.

At this time, in an old villa in Thessaloniki, a group of young Turkish officers were having a secret gathering.

"Comrades, I have good news for everyone, the Chinese comrades have sent us a lot of weapons - 10,000 rifles and 6o million bullets, 10,000 pistols and 10,000 bullets, in addition to 4oo machine guns, 2u1丨 mortars...... In the future, weapons and medicines will continue to be delivered......" the host said with a smile on his face.

This moderator is an active 6 Army lieutenant colonel about thirty years old, his name is Mustafa Limal, a top student of the Istanbul Military Academy and the Habai Staff Academy, and the current commander of the 6 Infantry Regiment of the 33 Ottoman Army. Most of the members present were young officers from various units in Thessaloniki. They belong to an organization called the "Turkish Scientific Socialist Party".

The officers below were excited.

"Great, with these weapons, we can arm all our comrades and perimeter members, and give those Balyu jackals a little color......"

"Mustafa, we should take this opportunity to get rid of Hamid II, the faint king, establish a republic, and implement socialist reforms" At this time, several fanatical party members began to shout.

Kemal said in a deep voice: "No, the time is not yet ripe, our organization is not strong enough. If we lose Hamid II now, we will only be able to cheapen the traitors, so our goal now is to protect Hamid II so that the empire can last until we are strong enough......"

"How long will it take? I can't wait......

"Rest assured, comrades, according to the Chinese comrades, the international situation is about to undergo drastic changes, and the two imperialist blocs will soon break out into a war that will last for several years, and that time will be a good time for us to grow stronger...... After this war, it is the best time for us to establish a republic. The Brotherhood Party of China will do everything in its power to help us......" Kemal said with confidence.
