The Crescent of the Sultan

After a long silence, Georgi broke it all.

"So we just watch him cut his flesh with a soft knife, motionless, until he is bled to death?"

"Otherwise, how else do you want to move?"

Stefan looked at Georgi teasingly.

“How about I introduce to you the great current Holy Roman Emperor, the eternal Augustus, Leopold II.

Or the Caesar of all Russia, the dictator of Kiev and Moscow, Catherine II.

You contact them, and then everyone will work together to overthrow the damn Ottoman Empire in one fell swoop, storm into Topkapi Palace, kill the sultan, and become your own master. "

Georgi's face twitched unconsciously and he said nothing.

“Okay, okay, Georgi, that’s it, there’s no point in discussing this topic anymore.

Why don't you go home quickly and make a baby with your sister-in-law? I remember you only have one daughter. "

Stefan issued an eviction order.

The talks in the Balkans and Anatolia were just the tip of the iceberg of the impact of Selim's appointment letter. When the news of Selim's appointment letter to the Orthodox Patriarch spread to various European countries, almost all countries expressed their concern. This reacted.

Oh, except for France. They have already discussed whether to send troops, but they are still arguing about the direction, generals and troop strength.

St. Petersburg, Winter Palace, Catherine II was overjoyed when she heard the news of Selim's appointment.

Immediately, the Orthodox Patriarch of Tsarist Russia was entrusted to declare: "In view of the brutal behavior of the Ottoman Sultan, the great Russian Empress can no longer bear the cruel oppression of the Orthodox people by the other party.

We believe that the clause in the last peace treaty that the great Russian Empire should not interfere with the Orthodox Christians of the Ottoman Empire seems to be no longer appropriate.

We will continue to follow up on this matter and stand ready to restore the patronage of the Great Empress of the Russian Empire to the Orthodox Christians. "

When the news reached Selim, the Sultan smiled contemptuously.

"Beat me. Defeat my good brother French Chicken first. Then you ask me why I am a good brother with a pagan. Because I am a native chicken."

was all Selim could say.

“In this version, France can be said to have been strengthened.

A Napoleon who had experienced in the Ottoman Empire in advance, participated in political struggles with Roland, and governed local governments would only be more powerful than in history.

More importantly, in fact, in the original time and space, France's national power could not support Napoleon's military conquest.

But it doesn't matter, considering the deep friendship between the two countries that has been handed down since the era of the crescent moon and the lily, the Ottoman Empire is naturally the source of the emperor's factories and raw materials.

As long as the emperor is willing to provide technology and help with industrialization, the anti-French alliance is nothing.

Prussia simply can't defeat the Ottoman Empire. Austria and the Russians are the Ottoman feud. The only thing worth considering is to bring the British.

Hmm. As long as you don't go too far, you should, maybe, probably will be fine. After all, you are one of the great powers, and you have also organized and trained a new army.

Daiying is not so bold, and will focus more on winning over. With the size of the Ottoman Empire, it will be time for Emperor Sai to show his superb teamwork and diplomatic methods.

The Ottoman Empire industry, where I grew up with two families, if you don’t understand, just ask, is it that you rubbish Tsarist Russia can touch porcelain?

What the hell, you are fighting for size as if no one is afraid of you. "

The Tsar's speech reached not only Selim, but also the European countries.

London, Downing Street, William Pitt is discussing with Chancellor of the Exchequer Charles Wesley about the behavior of the Ottoman Sultan and the arrogant and discredited statements of Catherine II.

"So, the sultan really plans to marry an Orthodox Christian?"

"I'm afraid it's not that simple, Charles. Although this sultan has only been on the throne for three years, he has done things that many sultans have wanted to do but failed to do for nearly a century. I don't think this matter is that simple.

However, Russia under the leadership of Catherine II was too greedy.

Charles, let's just wait and see. There are still many things going on. The revolution of the French, the fall of Poland, and the Nuka Bay incident in the Americas all need our attention. "

William Pitt said worriedly.

Charles replied angrily.

“Spain claimed all the land west of the Continental Divide.

But is this something they can grasp?

Charles III ordered three naval expeditions north along the Pacific coast to assert Spain's territorial claims.

However, in front of the great England, his navy was simply vulnerable

Under such circumstances, the adventurers represented by Juan Francisco and Ignacio de Arteiga actually held a formal possession ceremony when they arrived at the Port of Santiago on La Magdalena Island. , it’s simply ridiculous and laughable.

Even more ridiculous were the likes of Esteban José Martinez Fernandez and Martinez de la Sierra, who simply established a colony on the northwest coast of Vancouver Island.

Martinez dared to claim that Spain has exclusive sovereignty and navigation rights, and even seized several of our ships in Nootka Strait. He simply didn't know what to say.

We were kind enough to negotiate with them, but the King of Spain had the gall to claim that his Nootka territory extended north from Alta California to 61 degrees north latitude, and west from the Continental Divide to 147 degrees west longitude.

This is intolerable to us.

East of the Continental Divide, Spain also claimed all land south of the Arkansas River and west of the Medina River, as well as all land south of the Red River and west of the Calcasieu River. "

William Pitt laughed.

“Who knows what the Spaniards think?

The vast disputed areas between U.S. and Spanish territorial claims were largely occupied by indigenous peoples, and there were few Spanish or American traders in these areas.

Their claim to these areas was about as likely as an English princess marrying an Ottoman sultan. "

The two ended the meeting with a smile. It was just Spain. In front of England, it was better to stand aside.

Vienna, Schönbrunn Palace, Leopold II is worrying about the situation in France.

According to the news from the French royalists, the French have decided to declare war on the Holy Roman Empire. This is undoubtedly an outcome he does not want to see.

After all, the French crown prince didn't grab it, and he still got a bit dirty.

Once France declares war on itself, the Netherlands will definitely bear the brunt. At that time, France must be fully dealt with, and there will be some slack in dealing with the Ottomans and Tsarist Russia. This is what Leopold II does not want to see.

After all, the Holy Roman Empire and the Ottoman Empire were feuding. As for the Russian Empire, Catherine II's appearance made people have to be wary of each other.

"well!"

The emperor sighed heavily. He could not see the hope of unifying Germany, but could only see Austria's increasingly dim future.
