My Italy

What made Carlo so discolored was actually nothing. On the third day after Bulgaria declared war on the Ottoman Empire, Greece and Serbia also declared war on the Ottoman Empire.

People who don't understand may say, isn't this a good thing? There are two more enemies to deal with Osman.

When you hear this, you will know that you are ignorant of politics, because it means that the situation is out of control. Greece and Serbia are very involved, making the war suddenly have an extra side.

In a battle situation where the two camps were originally clearly divided, a third party suddenly appeared. How could we fight this?

Although Greece and Serbia declared war on the Ottomans, everyone knew that they did not belong to Italy's side because they had not talked with Italy at all.

This is very embarrassing. Two uninvited guests have entered the current war, causing inexplicable changes in the war situation. The more critical thing is that this plan to carve up the cake from the Ottoman Empire was obviously prepared by Italy. What does it mean to suddenly have two uninvited guests?

However, it is not easy to drive away these two countries with Italy's strength, because there are other countries behind it. If it weren't for the two figures standing behind him, Carlo could responsibly say that for Serbia and Greece, even one of them wouldn't be enough to beat Italy with one hand. Because these two small countries have less than five million people, what can they do to compete with Italy.

"Send in the British and Russian ambassadors immediately. I have something to do and need to summon them."

Following Carlo's words, the originally simple Italian-Turkish war in the Balkans rapidly expanded and has now become a vortex involving the situation of major European countries.

When Carlo was angry about the two Balkan countries, some people in St. Petersburg were also angry about it.

"Damn it, why did these Serbs act like this? Why didn't we receive the news in advance? Gorchakov was derelict in his duties, and our ambassador to Serbia is even more deaf and blind."

The one who was roaring violently was Tsar Alexander III. The Russian's little father was now in a furious mood because of the Serbian's actions.

Faced with the wrath of His Majesty the Tsar, Goremekin, as Prime Minister, could only bow his head and remain silent in the face of such a scene. The Tsar was right about this. The Serbians privately declared war on the Ottomans this time, which indeed disgusted Russia.

To put it bluntly, the Serbs, as pawns, acted privately and caused trouble for Big Brother. Although Russia has not yet made a corresponding decision on the war with Italy and Turkey, no one among the top Russian officials would scold Serbia for forcibly siding with Russia.

However, despite the criticism, the problem still needs to be solved. After all, Serbia is still a good little brother. It is a nail stuck in the Balkan Peninsula by Russia. It cannot let go, especially when Russia and Bulgaria have drifted apart.

"Your Majesty, we should still consider how to deal with the aftermath."

After the Tsar finished scolding, Goremekin, as the Prime Minister of the government, spoke about the most important things at present.

Yes, even if the Serbians set the trap, Russia, as the big brother, must find a way to make up for it. After all, Serbia is related to Russia's layout in the Balkans, so it is impossible to just let it go. And Alexander III also knew this, so he scolded the Serbs. If he had little to do with Russia, how could he be so angry?

After taking several deep breaths, Alexander III looked at the Prime Minister in front of him and asked. "What measures does your government have in place?"

"Your Majesty, the government's approach is to first endorse the Serbian declaration of war, or at least express acquiescence. In addition, given that Serbia and the Ottomans are at war, our country can support them with a batch of weapons."

Prime Minister Goremekin's words made Alexander III a little dissatisfied. He looked at his Prime Minister and continued to ask. "that's it?"

Of course, there was more, but considering that His Majesty the Tsar was not in a good mood before, Goremekin did not finish his words. But now facing the Tsar's inquiry, he had no choice but to keep the whole plan out.

"In addition, the military in Ukraine is allowed to conduct exercises to deter other countries from joining. In addition, Serbia, which secretly launches a war, cannot be spared. Kiriyenko, who serves as ambassador in Belgrade, has seriously neglected his duty this time and transferred him. Come back, and after this war is over, we will give warnings and punishments to the Serbs."

Obviously, as Russia's prime minister, Goremekin first needs to consider Russia's interests. At a time when he could be dragged into the water at any time, he couldn't punish the Serbs first. We can only give priority to ensuring that it is not attacked by the Ottomans or other countries, and then wait until the war is over before we can talk about punishment.

Faced with the method given by Goremekin, Alexander III felt that there was nothing wrong with it and spoke. "Then follow this method, but you must warn the Serbs that if it happens again, the empire will reconsider the relationship between the two countries. Our country will not allow such a situation to happen again. This is the first and last time."

It was obvious that although he was unwilling to do so, Alexander III acquiesced in the Prime Minister's approach.

Of course, compared with the Russians' actions for the Serbians, who could only acquiesce after being furious, the British Empire was much calmer.

"Tell Trikoupis, the Greek, that we are very disappointed with his actions and that the British Empire will provide absolutely no help in this regard."

Looking at the Greek ambassador in front of him, Cecil, who was the Prime Minister and Foreign Secretary of the British Empire, said these words expressionlessly. Facing his words, the Greek ambassador in front of him felt hot. Because his words also represent the attitude of the British Empire towards Greece this time.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, our country sincerely means no offense. This time, the war between Italy and Turkey in the Balkans has devastated life in the region, and with the participation of Bulgaria, the situation in the Balkans is facing a reshuffle. Our country is really unwilling to see the local situation deteriorate. , so I had to take this step.

In addition, I heard that in order to bring Bulgaria into the war, the Italians offered generous conditions to allow it to annex the Macedonian region. This will seriously affect the balance of power in the region, so our country can't wait to prevent this from happening. "

Well, in front of the famous Prime Minister of the British Empire, the Greek ambassador did not dare to play any tricks and directly eliminated all Greece's concerns about this war.

Facing the Greek ambassador's words, Prime Minister Cecil said after looking at the other party. "Although our country will not provide much help, it can still ensure the safety of the Greek territory. In addition, although our country cannot provide help, I believe that if your country contacts arms dealers, for the sake of money, they will quickly provide a batch of arms."

Such straightforward words have shown the British Empire's attitude. If the Greek ambassador still doesn't understand, there is really nothing that can be done.

In fact, the Greek ambassador understood what Prime Minister Cecil said very clearly. He said with a happy face. "Thank you for the British support for our country. I will send a telegram to the country right now."

Seeing the teachable look of the Greek ambassador, Cecil nodded with satisfaction and sent him away.

When he was alone in the office, Prime Minister Cecil immediately showed disdain. Don't think that he doesn't know that it was these Greeks who caused the situation in the Balkans to become like this.

Of course, he did not deny that the Greek ambassador just now was right. This Italian-Turkish war really cannot go too smoothly for the Italians. Only by muddying the waters can the situation be exciting.
