“Gentlemen, the Ottoman Empire is an old enemy of the Empire, and we can also be called feuds. It was simply impossible for the Empire to allow warships to enter and exit the Dardanelles and Bosphorus by peaceful means. Therefore, the empire and the Ottoman Empire will inevitably break out into war because of this.
And the existence of the Treaty of Wudu was indeed proposed by the Sun Never Set people in order to restrain the empire. If the empire wants to tear up this treaty, it will definitely be obstructed by the sun never sets. However, I think that the sun does not set now, and there will be no guts and the empire to tear their faces. After all, the Germanic people are rising rapidly. If the sun does not set and the empire go to war, let alone whether they can win. This alone will give the Germans a chance to rise, and the people who never set will not take this risk.
So, as long as we can defeat the Ottomans and complete the expansion in the Balkans. Even, directly occupy the Dardanelles and the northern part of the Bosphorus. Then, if the sun does not set, there will be no way for us!”
Mikhail laid out his analysis and arrangement.
And this has also been recognized by other cabinet ministers.
“Then, if the empire wants to expand into the Balkans, it also needs a reasonable excuse. At least, it has to be passable on face. Foreign Minister Izvolsky said.
“It’s not hard to make excuses. The Kingdom of Bulgaria has always been at odds with the Empire. They wanted the support of the empire and did not want to be controlled by it. The same is true for the Kingdom of Serbia. However, this does not change the fact that their population is Slavs. For the Empire, if the time is right, we may be able to annex other Slavic states!”
The creation of a state of Great Slavs was also the last wish of successive tsars of the Russian Empire.
You know, from ancient times to the present, the Slavs have three branches, namely the East Slavs, the West Slavs and the Yugoslavs.
Among them, the state established by the Eastern Slavs was the Russian Empire. Or another time and space later life split into big hair, two Mao and three Mao.
The country founded by the West Slavs was the Kingdom of Bohemia. Of course, in this time and space, Bolan no longer existed and was divided between the Germanic Empire, the Russian Empire and the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The Kingdom of Bohemia was one of the constituent states of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. In another time and space, the countries formed by the West Slavs were Bolan, Czech, and Slovak.
The Yugoslav states were the Kingdom of Serbia and the Kingdom of Borgalia. Of course, in another time and space, after the dissolution of Austria-Hungary and the dissolution of Yugoslavia, several small states composed of southern Slavs were divided.
Once the Russian Empire unified the entire Slavs, it would create a huge state encompassing Eastern Europe, Southeastern Europe, and half of Central Europe. Such a country will undoubtedly become the hegemon of the whole of Europe.
Of course, other European powers will never want to see the Slavs united. They will definitely do everything possible to obstruct the Russian Empire.
Successive tsars are also working towards this goal. However, even in this era, this goal is far from being completed. It is still difficult to achieve this goal.
“In the Kingdom of Bulgaria, there were some Slavs supported by the Empire and have been pushing for the union of the Kingdom of Bulgaria with the Empire. It’s just that this is a small group of people. Moreover, it has always been suppressed by the Bulgarian kingdom and cannot develop. If those people are again persecuted by the Bulgarian kingdom. So, can the Empire march into the Kingdom of Bulgaria and annex the entire Kingdom of Bulgaria under the banner of protecting the Slavs?” asked Mikhail.
The top officials of the Russian Empire immediately began to think.
The current Kingdom of Bulgaria is not strong, not only is the land area small, but the population is only more than two million people.
It was not until after the end of the First Balkan War, when the Balkan League defeated the Ottoman Empire, that they were able to swallow Ottoman territory in Europe.
You know, now in the Balkans, there are still large areas of land that belong to the Ottoman Empire.
“Gentlemen, once the empire annexes the Kingdom of Bulgaria. The Ottoman Empire would never watch the Empire succeed, and they would definitely take the opportunity to take action against the Empire. At that time, the empire could take the opportunity to provoke a war with the Ottoman Empire, crush them in one fell swoop, and seize the Ottoman territory in the Balkans. All the way to the Denelles and the Bosphorus. In this way, the purpose of the empire will naturally be achieved!” Mikhail continued.
He laid out his whole plan.
And this plan was also approved and supported by other high-level officials of the Russian Empire in the future.
“Your Majesty, we still have to worry about the reaction of Austria-Hungary. Austria-Hungary had also been trying to compete with the empire for the Balkans. Foreign Minister Izvolsky reminded.
Mikhail nodded repeatedly, he also knew this.
