Abandoning caesar’s kingdom, a wall-to-wall grass with little fighting power, August did not feel that there was any big deal.
In terms of the combat effectiveness of the Germanic Empire, even if the Kingdom of Caesar continued to ally with the Germanic Empire, it would not provide much help to the Germanic Empire.
Even, because the Kingdom of Caesar was located in the heart of the Mediterranean, they would most likely not be able to resist the invasion of the Sun never set and the Gauls. Once the Kingdom of Caesar could not resist and asked the Germanic Empire for help, did the Germanic Empire want to rescue it? But the Germanic Empire did not have many troops, and if a lot of troops were divided to rescue the Kingdom of Caesar, wouldn’t that make the Germanic Empire’s troops more tense?
Therefore, August did not care about the kingdom of Caesar as an ally.
“Gentlemen, the Kingdom of Caesar we can give up. But the Ottoman Empire needed to be wooed. August continued.
“Your Majesty, the Ottoman Empire is no stronger, or even weaker, than the Kingdom of Caesar.” The Secretary of State of war, Admiral Von Falkenhain, reminded.
“Yes, the ottoman Empire is really not very strong. However, their geographical location is very important. Once the future war broke out, the Tsarist Empire was definitely a fierce enemy of the Empire. The vast territory and large army of the Russian Empire were enough to pose a great threat to the Empire. And it will not be easy for us to defeat the Tsarist Empire. Especially once the Tsarist Empire received support from other powers, a large amount of weapons and equipment was continuously transported to the Tsarist Empire. Then, the huge demographic advantages of the Tsarist Empire can be brought into play. At that time, we will face a large number of troops of the Russian Empire.
The Ottoman Empire held the Dardanelles, and if they joined the alliance, they could cut off the way from the Mediterranean to the Black Sea. The Russian Empire’s access to support would be cut off, leaving only the Barents Sea to the north and the Far East to the east. If our navy had been a little more forceful, it would not have been a problem to cut off the sea lines of transport in the atlantic direction of the Russian Empire. In the end, then, only the transport corridors of the Far East remain.
The Far East was too far away from Europe, even if the old man built the Trans-Siberian Railway. However, the capacity of this railway is limited, and it is simply unable to meet the consumption of the battlefield. In this way, the war potential of the Tsarist Empire would be greatly reduced.
They had huge men in the air, but they didn’t have enough weapons to arm them. If those soldiers were allowed to go to the battlefield with their bare hands, they would only be slaughtered. This will be a great contribution to our defeat of the Tsarist Empire in future wars! ”
August introduced his views to everyone.
Even because of its geographical location alone, the Ottoman Empire was worthy of the Germanic Empire’s co-optation.
“If the Empire were to win over the Ottoman Empire, it would have been easier. After all, the Ottoman Empire and the Russian Empire were feuds. Through many wars, the Russian Empire fought the Ottoman Empire with heavy losses and fell to the point where it is now. If the Ottoman Empire is willing to take revenge, then joining us is the only option! Foreign Secretary Holwig said.
“Yes, Your Majesty. The Ottoman colonies in North Africa also basically fell into the hands of the Sun and gauls. The Ottomans also hated the Sun and the Gauls. It can be said that the three main powers of the Allied Alliance were enemies of the Ottomans. If they don’t want to remain neutral in the war, joining us is the best choice! Shoubi Luo also said.
“That being said, it is necessary to open up how the Ottomans themselves chose. If they decide that we are more likely to lose, there is no chance of winning. Perhaps, they will choose to join the Allied alliance, or not to take a stance for the time being. August said.
“No matter what, we have to work hard. Your Excellency, Minister for Foreign Affairs, as my special envoy, make a trip to the Ottoman Empire and visit the Ottoman Empire. Exchange views with the Ottoman High Command to see if there is any possibility of them joining the Allies. Auguste made the decision.
“Yes, Your Majesty!” Holwig replied.
“Moreover, didn’t the Ottoman Empire want to buy two battleships as the main force of the Ottoman Empire against the Russian Empire in the Black Sea? Tell the Ottomans that the Empire could sell them two battleships at cost. August continued.
In another time and space, the Ottoman Empire spent a lot of money to place orders with the Empire that never set. But unfortunately, before the two warships were built, war had already broken out.
When the battleship was built, the sun did not set, and on the grounds of the tense war situation, the two battleships were directly detained and served in the Royal Navy. Moreover, there is no refund of the cost of ship purchase paid by the Ottoman Empire.
This was undoubtedly a typical banditry, which greatly angered and disgruntled the Ottoman Empire.
You know, the ottoman Empire is very poor now. They saw the two battleships as hope, and even called on the whole country to collect donations, even beggars donated money for it.
Under such circumstances, the sun never set and blackened the Ottoman warships. You can imagine how angry the Ottomans would have been.
This led the Ottoman Empire to join the Allies in a fit of rage. And the Dardanelles dealt a heavy toll on the Allies.
Unfortunately, because the Allies eventually lost the war, the Ottoman Empire suffered a heavy blow. In the end, all territory except the peninsula of Asia Minor was lost.
However, in this time and space, everything is completely different.
The Germanic Empire was more powerful than another time and space. If the Ottoman Empire were willing to join the Allies, the chances of future victory would be very high. Perhaps, the Ottoman Empire may still be reborn from the fire.
Of course, there was another very important reason why August was active in wooing the Ottoman Empire. That is, the Ottoman Empire nominally had a large territory in both the Middle East and North Africa. Most of these territories are yellow sand. However, in fact, it is buried in rich oil resources.
If the Ottoman Empire became an ally of the Germanic Empire. The Germanic Empire, then, would be able to exploit these oils. Even if a part of the benefits were shared with the Ottoman Empire, the Germanic Empire could make a lot of money.
Especially now, all the warships of the German empire are fuel boilers, and they are equipped with a large number of cars and tanks and armored vehicles, and they need a lot of oil.
