Passed the Greeks, Ferdinand suddenly relaxed a lot. As soon as the Greek Kingdom was established, the eyes of the Greeks shifted to the construction of the country, and there was no time to trouble him.
Conflicts of interest often determine between countries!
Compared with the restoration of Greek glory, their conflict with Bulgaria is not worth mentioning, and their biggest enemy has now become Ethiopia next door.
As for the success of the Greeks, Ferdinand is not optimistic about them, mainly because of the flaw of the population. Now the number of Greeks is falling sharply.
There is no doubt that this is the pot of the Ottoman Empire, and the ethnic cleansing cannot be stopped from the beginning. For Bulgaria, the time has come to land on the Asia Minor Peninsula.
The Leading Party has already existed, and the ethnic minorities within the Ottoman Empire are now generally welcoming the king. The most important thing is that Syria has also fallen.
Major General Vicki Clinton deserves to be from an intelligence background and has a good business ability. As soon as he took office, he formed five colonial units, namely two Greek divisions, two Romanian divisions, and a Montenegro division.
I have to say that propaganda is very important. The ethnic cleansing carried out by the Ottoman Empire in Syria has long spread in Syria. Although Romanians and Greeks do not have a cold in Bulgaria, there are Ottomans who make comparisons. For the safety of the young and old, they Also had to pick up weapons to the front line.
However, the composition of the separate Montenegro division was a bit complicated. Many of them were supporters of the Ottoman Empire. They were just rescued by Bulgaria from the Kingdom of Montenegro, and now they are starting to move.
And all of these majors, Vicki Clinton, pretended not to see them, and simply put the five divisions on the front line, replacing the former Syrian defense division.
Although their weapons and equipment are a little behind and their training is a little worse, under normal circumstances, it is probably not difficult to hold a line of defense with five times the original strength?
Of course, the arrangement of Major General Vicki Clinton quickly attracted questions from his staff. For example, a major staff officer once questioned: "General, our supervision of the colonial forces is too lax, and it is easy to fail."
This is for sure. Several colonial divisions and even high-ranking officers were selected by soldiers, and they were simply training warlords.
Major General Vicki Clinton replied coldly: "Mr. Major, all you need to do is to execute the order. As for why, and the consequences of doing so, I am very clear.
As a soldier, it ’s better not to participate in politics. I can only tell you what this means in China! "
The Bulgarian army is not the Japanese army. They do not have the following abilities. Even if they are dissatisfied with the order of Major General Vicki Clinton, all they can do is apply to the country.
In order to evacuate as quickly as possible, Major General Vicki Clinton gathered the local Bulgarians in the name of war and sent him to Palestine.
In addition, the grain was controlled under the rationing system during the war. Of course, when the grain was distributed, it was still very loose. Everyone could receive one week's grain in advance. This amount was quite generous.
He knew very well that there was still a fire, so the opportunity for Bulgarian intelligence personnel within the Ottoman Empire to perform.
One of them is Issad, who is now a junior staff officer in the Ottoman army.
After discovering that the Bulgarians changed their defenses, the Ottomans were also taken aback, and the opposing garrison suddenly became five times the original. Not to mention defense, even counterattacks can be done.
Even if they were all colonial forces, that was not easy to mess with. The earliest Greek colonial forces formed had already fought.
Don't look at the bad relations between the Greeks and Bulgaria, and don't want to defend the colonies for Bulgaria, but their relationship with the Ottoman Empire is even worse.
At that time, the Ottoman army was looting on the Greek peninsula. Hundreds of thousands of Greeks fell under the butcher knife. When it comes to hatred, almost every Greek had personal hatred with the Ottomans.
After the Bulgarian bombing propaganda, in their opinion, once the Ottoman army occupied Syria, the tragedy of that year will be repeated! In this context, can their resistance to resistance be weak?
This naturally caused headaches for the commanders of the Ottoman army. The combat effectiveness of the colonial forces was weaker, but their will to fight was not weak!
After more than a year of war, the Ottoman army has suffered more than 150,000 casualties in the Syrian region, but the results are still few.
As Commander Hadley Pasha, the pressure is also very great. Strategically, the Allies now urgently expect that they can cut the Suez Canal and cut off a maritime lifeline for the Allies.
Geographically, the Arabian Peninsula is a desert and is not suitable for military operations. Pushing it all the way from Syria is the best choice.
Now the Ottoman government has issued a death order demanding that he capture the Syrian region at all costs, and then kill all the way to the Suez Canal and block shipping.
Hadre-Pasha said fiercely: "The Bulgarian garrison on the opposite side has only five divisions and a bunch of colonial troops. Our 500,000-strong army not only has not captured the Syrian region for a year, but also suffered heavy casualties. Dissatisfied.
This time I have assured the country that the Syrian region will be captured within three months. If the mission is not completed, everyone will meet together ~~ Now what can you do, let's say it! "
"General, please ask for support from the country! Although we have an advantage in military strength, we have been suppressed by Bulgarians on firepower, otherwise they will not be able to persist until now!" One person mentioned
Hadley Pasha gave him a glance, saying: "200,000 reinforcements have been sent to us in the country, and they will arrive in half a month!"
No way, as soon as the World War broke out, their communication channel with the allies was cut off. Without the support of the allies' weapons and equipment, they could only rely on themselves.
In fact, the outbreak of the World War has greatly promoted the industrialization of the Ottoman Empire. In order to meet their own weapons and equipment needs, they adopted the most primitive hand-made guns.
I also obtained a small amount of production equipment from the allies through submarines. Of course, this is limited to small parts, and there is no way for large equipment.
Weapons and equipment are not enough, we can only rely on human resources. Since the war began, the Ottoman Empire has mobilized more than 3 million troops.
The Ottoman Empire in this time and space had no historical population, lost all European territories, and fought a heavy battle with Bulgaria on the Asia Minor Peninsula.
Originally there were still more than 20 million people, but the Ottoman Empire fought another wave and killed many ethnic minorities. Now their population is still a mystery, which will generally not exceed 18 million. It can mobilize three More than one million troops are already the result of the outbreak.
Unfortunately, the Ottoman government still feels that its troops are not enough. More than one million Ottoman troops in the Caucasus are fighting the Russians, and hundreds of thousands in Syria. They must also defend Bulgaria from landing on the Asia Minor Peninsula at any time.
This is also why Ferdinand has not ordered the landing on the Asia Minor Peninsula. If the landing is early, the more than 3 million Ottoman troops will die with Bulgaria. It is better to let them die first.
"Only 200,000 troops? General, there are now more than 3 million people in Syria. Bulgaria can still mobilize another 300,000 to 400,000 troops there. Even if they do not draw reinforcements from the country, we have no confidence in overcoming their defense. what!"
An opposition sounded and immediately received the support of many military officers. This is the actual situation, and everyone can't help worrying.
Assad knew it was time for him to perform, and immediately said, "General, I thought of a way to tear the Bulgarian defenses."
The crowd cast their eyes on him, and now Essade can only be an ordinary staff member who can appear at the meeting, or because he served as the recorder of the meeting. The Ottoman army ranks severely. Under normal circumstances, he does not have Qualified to speak.
But it's a special case now, isn't it? For Hadre Pasha, as long as he can conquer Syria, who's not the idea?
"Say!" Hadley Pasha said seriously
Assad said with confidence: "General, the strongest fortress was captured from the inside! The colonial forces in Syria and Bulgaria are not in the same heart. Most of them were exiled here by Bulgaria. There must be resentment in their hearts. If we pay a high price to buy it, we can always find someone who is willing to die for us! "
"Haha, what do you think is a good idea? Do you think we haven't bought it yet? But we sent a few groups of people without even a chance to speak, and the group of Greeks killed them cruelly!" Ironically
Hadley Pasha's original anticipation quieted down again. They had done many times to buy the colonial army and failed, but they were unsuccessful.
Exard explained without hesitation: "We failed before, it doesn't mean we will fail now!
To know that the Greeks hate us is not too shallow, they do not accept our goodwill, but it does not mean that Romania and Montenegro also do not accept our goodwill! "
Essade's explanation made everyone's eyes bright. The Greeks have a deep hatred for the Ottoman army. Everyone knows that it is the aftermath of the Greek-Turkish war. Even if they buy off officers, there is no way to buy so many soldiers!
However, the hatred between them and the Romanian Montenegro is much smaller ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Even if it has, it has been diluted over time, it is completely possible to buy some of them to die.
"Okay! This suggestion was made by Major Isard, and now I leave this task to you to complete, what's the problem?" Hadre Pasha said cautiously
"No! As long as the general orders the frontline troops to cooperate with me, then I can guarantee the completion of the task!" Aesad said affirmatively.
Hadley Pasha thought about it and said, "Okay, from now on, the frontline troops will cooperate with your actions, and it will depend on your performance!"
Don't look at Hadley Pasha's ease. In fact, buying colonial troops is now a high-risk job. Before that, many people had told them the cost of blood!
Therefore, even if there is now hope of success, everyone still hasn't jumped out and snatched this "good job" with Assad!
