Vol 2 Chapter 39: , The uprising ends

　　 Never overestimate the integrity of politicians!
　　 Maybe it was because the Armenians did a good job, or maybe the Greeks acted to increase their chances of winning. It was money and weapons to encourage the Ottoman Greeks to launch an uprising in Asia Minor.
　　 The incompetence of the Sudanese government stimulated the ambitions of George I. There is no way to solve the problem of Armenia. Now that even Constantinople is revolutionizing, it seems that Ottoman has really fallen!
　　Similarly, he is also very dissatisfied with the Bulgarian ally now. If it were not for fear of being profited by the fisherman, George I would have been prepared to do it alone.
　　Or there are people in Greece who can't bear to do anything. As a king, it is very troublesome to suppress the radicals!
　　 instigating an uprising in Asia Minor is one of his ways to shift contradictions.
　　 In order to suppress the Armenian uprising, the Sudanese government drew troops from Asia Minor, which also gave the Greeks hope.
　　 You must know that at the end of the 19th century, the Greeks were the second largest ethnic group in the Ottoman Empire, with a large population, far beyond the Armenians.
　　 Once they launch an uprising in Asia Minor, the Greek government can immediately provide support to them through the navy, and even direct troops to intervene.
　　Theoretically, as long as the rebel army can break out of Armenian combat power, millions of Greeks revolt, and Turkey’s tens of thousands of armies in Asia Minor can’t suppress it at all.
　　If the Greek government declares war on the Ottoman Empire again, sends troops to Asia Minor, and cooperates with the rebels, it might be able to swallow this piece of fat in one bite. No matter how bad it is, Greece can have a share in Asia Minor!
　　 As for whether the Sudanese government will send reinforcements, you can rest assured! There will be reinforcements, but they will definitely not be too many!
　　 The two hundred thousand troops in the Balkans did not dare to move at all. If the Ottoman army moved, would Bulgaria and Mentenegro be able to sit down? Take advantage of the fire every minute!
And unless they are going to the Marmara Sea, otherwise the Greek navy will not let them go. The main navy of the Ottoman Empire is now held back by the Bulgarian "presence navy", and they dare not leave Bosphorus for a moment. Channel!
　　 Even if the Sudanese government breaks his arm, abandons the Balkans, and walks to the Marmara Sea, with the Sudanese government’s organizational capabilities, it will not be possible to go into combat within a few months!
　　 The Constantinople area, not to mention, the Armenian rebels are still there! Withdrawing troops now means giving up Constantinople, and the Russians are coveting it!
　　 It is still possible for the Sudanese government to abandon other parts of the Balkans, and it is totally unacceptable to give up Constantinople. Especially when it fell into the hands of the Russians, it was tantamount to sending the Black Sea Strait out for nothing!
　　 And the rebellion must be quelled quickly. If the time delays, the rebels and the Russians can hook up and directly give this fortress city to the Russians, and the Sudanese government will not have time to cry!
　　Without this golden waterway, the Ottoman Empire is not far from the collapse!

　　Ferdinand doesn't care about the Greeks' wishful thinking. Now the main forces of the Ottoman Empire are basically concentrated in the Balkans, so he can't help but worry about it!
　　 Now that there are Armenian insurgents, Bulgaria does not feel the pressure, once the rebellion subsides. If the army of four or five hundred thousand stayed in the Balkans, it would be an eyesore!
　　 Constantinople, which is defended by at least hundreds of thousands of troops, is not easily conquered, or it may become a war of attrition!
　　 Now that the Ottoman Empire has blocked the Bosphorus and the Armenians have been besieged in Constantinople, even if Ferdinand wanted to support them, he could not do it.
　　 Sitting in a lonely city, the uprising was extinguished is a fact sooner or later!
　　Ferdinand still doesn’t know how much damage this uprising has brought to the Ottoman Empire, otherwise he won’t be so worried!
　　Especially under the command of a professional like Victor Gies, the rebel army is fighting with the Ottoman government forces, and the two sides have reached the point of endless death.
　　 By May, all the outer walls had fallen. The reason was that the rebels had all shot out. Without artillery, it is naturally impossible to stop the enemy's attack!
　　The weakness of the mob has now been exposed. With the blind expansion of the revolutionary army, the Armenian Provisional Government is no longer able to command troops!
　　If it was okay before, the Ottoman army did not come in, and everyone still hopes for victory. You can work hard together!
　　 But with the loss of the perimeter defense, everyone's confidence in holding Constantinople has disappeared. The key is that the intervention of the foreign powers that the Provisional Government has been expecting, more than three months have passed, and there is no shadow!
　　 I have wine now, I am drunk now, I will worry about tomorrow! The military disciplines are all clouds, and military orders are also selectively executed. It depends on the mood. This is the current situation of the rebel army!
　　 Even Victor Keith, the nominal defensive commander in chief, is powerless with the exception of his several thousand direct lines.
　　 Simply, he never had illusions about the rebel army. After directly demarcating the defense zone, just let it go, why do you love it! Anyway, I got on the thief ship and couldn't get off! The Turks are here, and in order to survive, they have to fight with them!
　　 The bones of the city, if the Turks don’t know what’s going on, they will be blind!
　　 The atrocities of the rebels angered the Turks. Just kidding, when will the humble untouchables slaughter the noble masters! The commander-in-chief of the Ping Rebels, Wolf Pasha, directly ordered the blood debt to be paid!
　　 There is no room for relaxation anymore. The Turk, who wants to take revenge, has already lost his eyes. Oh, I can't help but they don't kill, so many nobles have died, UU read www. If uukanshu.com dares to let the rebels go, their family, relatives and friends will not give up!
　　 Both sides were forced to the corner. Even if the insurgents were mobs, desperately, they still caused considerable losses to the Ottoman army!
　　 Time flies quickly, and it entered June in a flash. The counter-insurgency army did not live up to the expectations of the Sudan. It has already captured more than half of Constantinople. The rebel army has been compressed to one occasion, and the uprising is about to be extinguished!
　　 But the commander-in-chief Wolf Pasha was not happy. The heavy casualties were only one aspect. He is a military commander. Except for the losses of the soldiers, other losses have little to do with him!
　　 Since ancient times, wars have often been accompanied by major epidemics, and this time is no exception. Now that summer has entered, the city is filled with the rancid smell of corpses, and the plague has broken out!
　　 In the face of the plague, Wolf Pasha was not worried. He immediately decided and withdrew from Constantinople, but the epidemic has begun to spread in the army!
　　 Fortunately, this plague, like in history, did not spread too much. In addition, Wolf Pasha blocked Constantinople and did not spread in the Ottoman Empire!
　　The arrival of the plague created opportunities for Victor Keith to run. Now that both sides are exhausted, Victor Kis easily persuaded the real power in the rebel army to fight for their lives! (Ten thousand words omitted)
　　 After the outbreak of the plague, people died of illness every day, and the mental pressure on people was enormous. Rather than waiting to die alive, it is better to fight the Turks and make a living!
　　 On July 8, 1896, the Armenian uprising lasted more than four months and ended in failure! The remaining more than 100,000 insurgents launched a breakthrough! But the rabble is the rabble, and there is no accidental breakout failure, and the rebel army is almost annihilated!
