No matter how you look at it, Ferdinand’s strategy is full of temptation. Once Bulgaria completes the counter-attack, Diosi instantly becomes rich and handsome!
Of course, it is not so easy to complete this strategy. Although the Ottoman Turk Empire is decayed, it is still so big and the risk of failure is still not small!
But in the face of interest, how many people can resist the temptation? ? If there is, then the temptation is not big enough!
Anyway, the Bulgarian government cannot resist the temptation to expand. The gains from the War of Protection of Cyprus, once digested, will be enough to make the Bulgarian government fight for ten years less!
Constantine said uncertainly: "Your Excellency, can we do it? The strength of the Ottoman Turk Empire is not weak. They want them to abandon the Balkans. Unless there is an all-out war, can we win?"
Ferdinand smiled and said: "If the Ottoman Turk Empire can be fully mobilized, of course we are not their opponents! But can they be fully mobilized??
Don’t forget, the Ottoman Turk Empire has not many other things, but many enemies!
In the Caucasus and Crimea, they have to defend the Russian Empire; in the Indian region of Central Asia, they have to worry about the British invasion; the Italians are eyeing the Libya region; Austria-Hungary has been eyeing Bosnia and Herzegovina, ready to swallow it!
The Armenians in the country are clamoring for independence, and the other ethnic minorities are also insecure. As long as we push it, there may be riots at any time!
With so many unfavorable factors added up, even if the Sudanese government attaches great importance to the Balkans, it is impossible for the Sudanese government to invest more than half of its power and leave it idle in the Balkans without confirming that we will do it!
As long as these unfavorable factors are picked up, the decayed Ottoman Empire is not so invincible! "
After listening to Ferdinand’s analysis, everyone nodded excitedly. It seemed that the chance of success was still very high.
At the end of the 19th century, the transportation in the Ottoman Empire was not very good. It was because the land area was so large that soldiers had to be deployed everywhere.
If a war breaks out suddenly, I am afraid that the troops from all parts of the Ottoman Empire will not have time to gather, and the war in the Balkans will be over.
It's easy to lose territory, but it's hard to get it back, especially for a weak empire!
After all, it is the consensus of all European powers to weaken the Ottoman Empire. Even Germany, which supports the Sudanese government, cannot stand for it on this issue!
Unless you don’t want to get mixed up in the Christian world, after all, it’s not World War I yet, and international contradictions have not yet intensified. European people are politically correct when it comes to saving believers of God from pagans!
The outbreak of the Near East crisis is an example. Armenians are struggling for independence. Due to the pressure of public opinion, European powers are putting pressure on the Ottoman Empire.
Chekov asked excitedly: "Grand Duke, when shall we do it? Can we prepare now? Now Armenians are fighting for independence, and the Ottoman Empire suppressed Armenians, which has already been condemned by the international community!
If we intervene, the Armenians will become independent and it will be easy to get the support of the great powers! "
Everyone looked at Ferdinand with expectant eyes and startled him. Is this too anxious? I was still discussing strategy just now, are you planning to do it now?
No wonder the first Balkan War just ended, and the second Balkan War broke out! Even if there is a contradiction, diplomacy can be used to delay time!
If the Second Balkan War drags on for a few months and Bulgaria completes its strategic material reserve, then history may have been rewritten!
Ferdinand also knows that this is a common problem in small countries. It lacks strategic patience, tends to be radical, and lacks long-term vision!
"No! We just finished fighting Serbia, the strategic material consumption is very large, we still need to replenish. Moreover, the results obtained this time need to be digested before they can be transformed into national power!" Ferdinand affirmed
Ferdinand’s words are like a basin of cold water falling from the sky, pulling Constantine and others back from their dreams.
Now the Ottoman Empire is indeed very weak, but why does Bulgaria not need to cultivate and live up to it? The start of the war at this time is completely ungracious. Is it fighting a war that will hurt both sides? ?
After calming down, everyone started to make a series of plans around this strategy.
First of all, reserve training must be further expanded!
The Ottoman Empire is not Serbia. Let alone the combat power of the army against the team, but the number is absolutely indispensable!
200,000 Bulgarian troops can sling Serbia; but if the opponent is Ottoman, it might be buried by the crowd tactics!
The Serbs are the best negative example. After the war broke out, soldiers who had never been trained were sent to the battlefield, and then they contributed to the Bulgarian army's impressive record!
The cabinet has always decided, UU reading www. uukanshu.com reserve every year your training time must be extended, the scope must be expanded!
In the slack period of the farming period, the training was completed for two months, which is four times the original half a month; the scope is, the participation of the whole people is complete, and all youths of the right age must participate, including government officials!
Ferdinand looked at it, and took a breath. This is too cruel! Even the members of the cabinet are members of the reserve and must take time to participate in training.
is really a fighting nation, it became crazy, even his own! Then, Ferdinand simply delineated the top government officials.
What are you kidding? If the war is fought to the point where cabinet ministers are needed, they will have to carry their guns to the front. It is estimated that Bulgaria will be over!
Secondly, of course, the material reserve!
In the latter part of the Serbian War, the Serbian army's logistics collapsed. Thanks to their defeat too fast, they did not have time to experience the misery of running out of ammunition and food!
When it came to the people of Belgrade, they experienced the pain of lack of supplies firsthand!
Grain reserves are the simplest. The government still holds most of the country's land. As long as the grain produced is sold less each year, it will be saved.
There are also new territories. As long as one or two years have passed, the immigration is in place and the land is developed, the total grain output of Bulgaria will need to be further increased. There is no need to worry about this!
The most troublesome thing is weapons and ammunition. In a mere Serbian War, Bulgaria fired more than 90 million rounds of ammunition and more than 200,000 rounds of artillery, which completely suppressed the Serbs in firepower, and could easily win the victory.
Needless to say, of course, the production line will be expanded immediately. As for the exceeded budget, it does not matter a few million levs. The Bulgarian government can still find a way to get it together!
