Holy Roman Empire

Chapter 590

In London, after the news of the Ankara coup, Prime Minister Gerston knew that things were going to be worse.

The problems of the Ottoman Empire cannot be solved by changing a government at all. No matter who comes to power, the first problem to face is to solve the refugee crisis and suppress the rebellion.

The Sudanese government did not complete these two tasks, not only because they were corrupt and incompetent, but because they really could not.Make bricks without straw.It ’s the same for whoever goes up.

Prime Minister Gerston asked: "How much capital does the Ottoman Empire need to initially restore agricultural production?"

The Foreign Secretary Marquis McLean shook his head: "I am afraid that no one can answer this question, Your Excellency. The Russians have done so terribly and destroyed all the infrastructure that can be destroyed before withdrawing.

According to information from the embassy, ​​in areas occupied by the Russian army, almost no complete building was found, and they blew up all buildings except the church.

Even the countryside has not been let go, houses, farmland, bridges, dams have been bombed, and even they artificially blocked the river channel, so that the lower reaches of farmland became Ze Kingdom.

It is said that the Russians consumed tens of thousands of tons of explosives for destruction, and almost all the Russian-occupied areas were reduced to white ground.

The Ottoman government's plan to restore spring farming failed completely under the destruction of the Russians.According to the current situation, even in 1876, the Ottomans resumed at least half of the local agricultural production.

The Sudanese government did not have the financial resources to persist for such a long time. In order to relieve refugees, the Sudanese government misappropriated most of the government's funds, including education funds.

The cause of this coup was triggered by the misappropriation of education funds by the Sudanese government.The problem is now with the Ottoman Youth Party."

Prime Minister Gerston nodded, and there is a long history of hatred in Russia and Russia. The Russians took extreme measures to retaliate, and he was not surprised.

The previous Russo-Turkish war was more bloody than this, and it is not surprising that tens of thousands of people were slaughtered at once.

There was no bombing of farmland and rivers in the front, not because the Russians were soft-hearted, mainly because the industrial technology had not developed to the present point.

This time the logistics are provided by Austria, and the Russians do not need to save.Now the ship is about to be evacuated. The ship is still provided by Austria, and the large comprehensive supplies hidden in front can not be hidden at this time.

Living materials such as grain can also be said to be seized loot, and the ammunition produced by the Austrian arsenal cannot be explained anyway.

The Russians were ruthless enough to vent all these ammunition on the Asia Minor Peninsula.In addition to giving God a face without blowing up the church, they blew up everything they could.

After the brain was made up, Prime Minister Gerston had a headache.The Russians were having fun this time, and now what to do with the Ottoman Empire.

Salvation is too costly; without salvation, the Ottoman Empire will surely be dragged down by refugees, and it will inevitably be annexed by Austria.

"What is the Ministry of Foreign Affairs preparing to do?"

Marquis McLean frowned, and answered with a puzzled expression: "This problem is not difficult to solve, at least for the Ottoman Empire. As long as they are ruthless enough, they can ..."

Everyone's face changed greatly, and there were many refugees in the Ottoman Empire. Even if hundreds of thousands died this winter, there were at least two million people.

According to the plan of Marquis Maclean, the refugee crisis was resolved once and for all, and the losses to the Ottoman Empire were also disastrous.

However, everyone has no objection and can climb to this position. Everyone is a determined person, and it is not so easy to be swayed by personal feelings.

What does the life and death of the Ottomans have to do with them?In this era of millions of people dying of hunger every year in the world, everyone ’s compassion has long been exhausted.

After wandering for two steps, Prime Minister Gerston said: "This matter has nothing to do with us, everything is Ottoman's own choice.

What we have to do now is to provide them with a counterinsurgency fund to stabilize the situation in the Ottoman Empire as soon as possible, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs should supervise their use.

At the same time, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs must be prepared. Once the Ottoman government takes action, it will definitely be pointed out by thousands of people.It doesn't matter if the international public scolds, but the Austrians can't be allowed to seize the handle and take the opportunity to interfere in Ottoman's internal affairs."

In this regard, Prime Minister Gerston is still at ease. Intelligence shows that Austria is eroding the Arabian Peninsula, and in a few years it will not be possible.

With the cautious style of the Vienna government, it will not do anything in a short time before digesting the Arabian Peninsula.

...

Ankara, the Ottoman Al-Shabaab who has just gained power, has not been able to enjoy the thrill of power before getting lost.

The way the script is opened is wrong. Under normal circumstances, after overthrowing the decaying government, under their leadership, shouldn't the Ottoman Empire realize a revival immediately?

However, the reality is exactly the opposite. After the overthrow of Abdul-Aziz I, they were at a loss.

This was just a coup, not a revolution, so the Al-Shabaab soon took over state rights.Of course, it is inevitable that a group of conservatives and religious figures are mixed in the government.

Politics always needs to be compromised. How can it be supported by everyone if they refuse to share their rights?

After getting the rights, the Al-Shabaabs were lost.This is not a prosperous and prosperous empire, but a rotten empire that is riddled with holes and may disintegrate at any time.

As the Al-Shabaab leader, Middlehart, who had just taken over the power, soon became dumbfounded.The issue of the struggle for rights is shelved first, and the issue of financial bankruptcy is imminent.

The decaying government that is overthrown is also not rich. Perhaps many of its officials are very fat, but it is still too insignificant for a country.

This did not release the government's arrears of administrative funds, and the wallet shrivelled again.The most expensive relief for refugees, there is still no funds to suppress the rebellion.

I do n’t know Chai Migui, but now Midhart finally realizes the suffering of the Sudanese government.The government's money is not enough.

"Britain and France say, will you give us a loan?"

Borrowing without money is the most common practice of the Ottoman Empire.The most popular loans in this era are Britain and France. More than 80% of the world's international loans were issued by the two of them.

"Prince, the French rejected our loan. Although the British did not refuse, they also put forward conditions. This loan can only be used to suppress the rebellion.

And they also proposed that we should resolve the refugee crisis as soon as possible and prove the government's ability to govern."Foreign Minister Hadfaw said bitterly

The refugee crisis is well resolved, as long as there is money.If there is insufficient food, you can purchase from two neighbors.

Unfortunately, what the Ottoman Empire lacked most was money. Now, even if they want a loan, the collateral is hard to find.

This is the pot of the previous government. In order to fight the war, the Sudanese government is doing its best to raise funds. If there is an international loan, the previous government has no money to help the refugees.

Midhart was unlucky, and it happened that the last government ran out of money before going up, and took over a mess.

Of course, if the last government did not do everything, the coup would not succeed, and naturally it would not be his turn.

Midhart slapped the table: "How to fix it? Millions of people reached out to us to eat, and the government held food for up to two months.

Such a short period of time, even if it is supplemented with spring cultivation, can not wait for the harvest.Moreover, our farmland was severely damaged, and most of the land could not be recultivated within the year.

This year we have a food shortage of more than 3.16 million tons. To completely solve the refugee crisis requires at least 5 million tons of food before we can get out of the predicament."

The figures of the British are not accurate. The Ottoman refugees are not only the original more than three million, but also later returned by Austria.

This number is increasing every day, and the Vienna government has implemented very well the issue of the repatriation of Ottomans.

In addition, the civil war is also the main reason for the increase in refugees.In the process of suppressing the rebellion, the warring parties created another group of refugees.

In this context, even if many people died after a winter, the total number of refugees has increased.

If someone counts, it will be surprised to find that the number of refugees in the Ottoman Empire has approached 30% of the total population, far exceeding the capacity of a normal country.

Hadfaw said dejectedly: "The British suggested that we expel people who lost their livelihoods to Persia and alleviate the domestic food crisis.

Or, establish a quarantine zone to separate the refugees and allow them to kill themselves."

Midhart was stunned directly, and he had no idea that he could do so.Whether it is deportation, the establishment of a quarantine zone for refugees, and letting themselves die, it means that millions of people will die.

Compared with direct slaughter, there is no essential difference between the two methods. The only difference is that there is no need to bear the charge of a butcher.

This has surpassed Midhart's ability to accept in his heart. He has just ascended to the prime minister's throne and still retains a trace of conscience.

It has always been very challenging to claim to be the savior of the Ottoman Empire, and it is now challenging for him to make up his mind to sacrifice millions of people.
