Chapter 64 Judgment Day (10) Yellow Peril (Part 2)

 Vienna.

Leopold II was also restless.

No, no, it's like being on pins and needles.

The newly compiled 100,000 troops, about 60,000 were lost in the Ottoman territory, and only 10,000 people successfully retreated to Vienna. However, the 20,000 new troops on the west route did not suffer much loss, but they were also strongly blocked by the Ottoman Greek Pashamukhsinbad, and had to retreat to Croatia and make plans.

If Transylvania's loss is still within their scope of tolerance, because it has not been long since they got it here, but the army of 60,000 people, at least eight of the lieutenant generals and above generals lost in the Ottoman territory, and the possible loss of Hungary is an unbearable burden.

What's more, because they counted on the Ottoman territory, they gave up their chance to compete with the Prussians for Bavaria!

Hungary and Bohemia are the two real pillars of the Austrians. The former is the location of their granary, while the latter is the industrial and mining center!

Konitz, the surrounding Austrian Prime Minister successfully escaped the crisis set by the Ottomans in the Sophia Cathedral and returned to Vienna.

"Your Majesty..."

After so many things, the figure of the sixty-seven-year-old Konitz standing in the palace seemed extremely hunched, like a candle in the wind.

However, Leopold II, who had just taken office, could only look at him with hope.

"The situation is obvious. Qitad is not dead. And they took Istanbul and must have known about the private contact between our country and the Ottomans, and perhaps they also got that agreement"

"I used my fake death to continue to cooperate with our country, and used our troops to clean up the Ottoman remnants of Serbia, Wallachia and Bulgaria, and waited until the cleaning was almost over and then suddenly launched an attack on our army."

"Because the incident suddenly happened, our army was unprepared, which led to the annihilation of the entire army. Obviously, we were deceived by Qitad. Not only did we lose the new army, but we were also very likely to lose Hungary!"

"Prime Minister, you mean..."

"The situation is very obvious. We cannot get Serbia, Wallachia, and Bulgaria. They will all become vassals of Truchen, and Transylvania will most likely lose it, but Hungary can obviously still negotiate."

"Also, although our army lost, they seized a lot of money in the Ottoman territory and transported it back to Vienna before the launch of the Chitard. With our own, it was enough to return their loans"

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Leopold II roared.

Konitz shook his head, "Your Majesty, please understand one thing. Since the Prussians obtained Bavaria, their national strength has increased greatly..."

“..., OK”

....

Moscow.

Excited by the crowd.

Even Kutuzov, who has always been steady, agreed to launch a full-scale counterattack on Truchen.

The roaring voice and angry expression made the huge crystal lamp hanging on the top of the golden hall seem to feel it, and it was trembling slightly.

"Your Majesty, everyone"

Secret Police Chief Saltikov spoke.

"I also agree to launch a counterattack immediately, but as a responsibility, there are several things that have to be said"

The hall calmed down suddenly.

The Salticov family, the family that served as the position of secret police chief (ordnance minister) for a long time when the Normanov dynasty replaced the Rurik dynasty was quite significant. Together with the Cherks family, they formed the right-hand man of the Normanov family.

After the chaos in the post-Peter Great era, the Salticov family's position as chief of secret police is one of the few highlights of Paul I.

Unlike some secret police chiefs in the past, they are deeply rooted and are also big Boyal, which is enough to form checks and balances against other big nobles.

"First..."

The people of the Salticov family are all thin and have a hooked nose. When they stand in the middle of the hall, the shadow reflected by the crystal lamp is like a slender poisonous snake.

Salticov's voice is hoarse and sharp, perfectly matching the characteristics of a venomous snake.

This made everyone present shudder.

"The Truchens have arranged all the militias in their territory near our border, with a total of as many as 300,000. In addition, in Orenburg, Charizin, Voronesh, and Kiev, they each have an army"

"For God's sake, allow me to tell the truth"

"The Truqin people are a poisonous snake that was accidentally raised by our country, a huge poisonous snake!"

When he said the word "venomous snake", his voice was both fierce and sharp, and it made everyone hug his trembling body tightly.

"But it is indeed a very powerful poisonous snake. Although they have less than 10,000 people in a division, their combat power has actually reached the level of an army in our country. Their number of cavalry, artillery, firepower, and musket shooting speed are much higher than that of our country"

"They are also well-trained, and almost half of their annual fiscal revenue is spent on the army. Even if we throw the 500,000 serf soldiers hidden in the dark forest into the battlefield of the southern Russian grassland, they are just a pile of bodies that pounce on and wait for death."

"If you want to defeat them, you must rely on regular troops, but the number of regular troops in our country does not have an overwhelming advantage"

"It can be expected that once we fight in the southern Russian grasslands, if we win, it will be a miserable victory. It will not lose too much Truchen. But once our country fails again, we will have to completely retreat into the dark forest!"

“Just like it was in the Golden Horde before!”

"I'm afraid it's even more powerful than that time. Because of the loss of 500,000 people, they can easily attack the dark forest. Whether Moscow can be saved by then is also a question"

"What do you mean..."

Paul I seemed to be frightened by the scene he portrayed, and his inquiry was trembling.

"Poland is just our newly acquired land, so give it to them, but Minsk and Lithuania cannot be lost!"

“……”

....

Kret, golden autumn is like a picture.

A century-old grand event is being held here.

Under the magnificent dome of the Kremlin, a large round table is also arranged, covered with a layer of red velvet cloth.

The Emperor of Truchen Empire, Qitad, Tsarist Paul I of Tsarist of Tsarist Russia, Shah Aga Khan of the Persian Empire, Sultan Hamid I of the Ottoman Empire, Heir Serim III, Austrian Emperor Leopold II, Prussian King Frederick II, Polish King Kazimiz, Serbian Grand Duke Nevsky, Romanian Grand Duke Petrasku, Bulgaria Grand Duke Tver, Solomon King Brisak, Kishinau Grand Duke Nicholas, and the leader of the Knights of Malta.

Today is the time to sign the agreement, and there are different documents in front of everyone.

The general content is:

First, Russia, Prussia abandoned Polish territory and became independent as a country, with Kazimiz as king.

Second, Austria abandoned Transylvania, retained Bohemia, Hungary, and immediately returned the Truchens' five million Dukat loan and paid one million Dukat interest.

Third, Prussia retained Silesia, but gave up the title of Grand Duke of Bavaria, and Grand Duke was still held by people from the former Grand Duke family.

Fourth, Serbia and Bulgaria in the Ottoman territory were independent and established a grand priest dominated by Christians. However, the Islamic people in the territory still maintained their previous lives and were not allowed to discriminate.

Fifth, Vaneguiya and Transylvania merged into the Grand Duchy of Romania, with the same policies as Serbia and Bulgaria.

Sixth, the disposal of Ottoman:

1. Keep Anatolia, Greece, Kosovo, and Albania, and divide into east and west countries,

The East Ottoman was served as the sultan by Serim III, the capital Ankara, and the West Ottoman was served as the sultan by Hamid I, the capital is located in the Saroniga.

2. Bosnia is incorporated into Austria.

3. The Istanbul region on both sides of the Ottoman Strait was incorporated into the Truchen Empire.

4. The province of Baghdad, the province of Fancheng was incorporated into the Persian Empire.

5. The province of Jerusalem was obtained by the Kingdom of Solomon, and the Egyptian part it occupied was incorporated into the Truchen Empire.

6. The Knights of Malta gave up the island of Malta and moved to Cyprus, Rhode Island, and Malta Island byte

The Luqin Empire occupied.

7. The Principality of Kishinau and the Principality of Iasi were merged into the Grand Duchy of Moldova, with Nicholas as the Grand Duke,

Stay permanently neutral.

Seventh, the Truchen Empire, the Persian Empire, the Kingdom of Poland, Serbia, Bulgaria, and Romania signed a covenant because these countries were roughly centered on the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea, and later they were called the "axis of evil in the two seas".

When everyone signed their name and covered the camp, Qitad stood up with a smile with a glass of wine.

He first looked at the former Ottoman Sultan Hamid I, who had a pale face, and then pointed at the dome of the Kremlin

Smile, "I, the emperor of the Truqins would not do such a thing"

As soon as these words were spoken, Austrian Emperor Leopold II looked at Hamid I in anger.

This is what Qitad intended to do. He wanted to tell Leopold, "Your brother Joseph II was not killed by me, but was killed by this Ottoman Sultan."

Qitade held his wine glass high, his face full of smiles.

"Everyone, for world peace, please drink this cup!"

At this time, all the crystal lanterns in the Kremlin were also lit up, making the entire palace look like daytime.

A face of Qitad is obviously an Oriental person focused on the light. Except for the allies, almost all people popped up a word in their hearts.

"Yellow Peril!"

“The New Yellow Peril of the Eighteenth Century!”

....

Everyone left Kret one after another, only Kazimiri stayed.

A Poland, sandwiched between Austria, Prussia and Russia, is indeed worrying, and Qitad had a long talk with him.

"Dear Kazimiri, if you accept my opinion, I can guarantee that your country will gain a foothold at least in a short time"

"I wish to hear it carefully"

"First, after the Prussians and Russians occupied Poland, a large number of former Polish nobles left the place and left a large number of castles and manors. You received them all from the king, that is, you are in your own hands. This is the first step"

"The second step is to remove the castle you control and the slaves of the manor farmers, make them free people who pay the grain tax, and swear allegiance to you in the cathedral"

"The premise is that you must appoint the archbishops in these places, and you must disband the parliament before the situation is stabilized"

"This kind of place occupies at least half of Polish territory, which is enough. You can establish new regimes, set up schools, and form armies in these places according to Truchen's system."

"Third, our country can provide you with an interest-free loan to establish industrial and mining bases in Gdansk, Warsaw and Krakow"

"Your Majesty..."
