"The Sudan's imperial guards have entered the southern part of the Arabian Peninsula through the Fertile Crescent Land. They will replace the previously severely damaged troops and then retaliate against the Arab tribes."

"Letta Pasha, stationed in the Mesopotamian Basin, is mobilizing troops to encircle Kurds in the north and Arab rebels in the south, but the progress is very difficult. At the same time, due to the rebellion, we have received serious impacts in the oil fields in the Mesopotamian Basin. We can now guarantee that oil in the southern region can be exported by sea. However, even in the southern region, oil production will be reduced due to strikes or other reasons."

"The military problems seem not very serious now, the most serious are internal political confrontation and economic problems. The conflict between Sudan and Zemal and others has gradually become clear. Although the two sides have not finally broken down due to the domestic situation, it is impossible to return to the past situation. Both sides are very confident in their own strength. Sudan has obtained a large amount of supplies and weapons from Germany and Austria. Zemal Pasha seems to have received help from the Americans."

"As for the economic problems, the empire's treasury was empty due to years of war. Before, we could rely on oil exports in exchange for foreign exchange, but now, with the loss of oil fields in the Mesopotamia, our oil export volume has plummeted. The large number of people recruited by the war has led to a lack of sufficient labor in agriculture and infrastructure. Unrest, war and internal struggles are constantly weakening the empire. The prospects are very bad, my marshal." Belson said with a sad face.

At this time, in a villa outside Vienna, Kemal and his adjutant Belson were studying the current situation in Turkey on the sand table. Yes, it was just researching. Crown Prince Ruprecht said that Kemal was a true patriot. He loved his motherland deeply and wanted to help his motherland change and develop in any environment. This had nothing to do with his personal situation. For his country, he could deal with the Italians in the desert of Libya, and fight with the British and French forces on the plains of Asia Minor. He could even tend to be the Americans to attack his former friends and allies for the sake of national interests! For his country, he could do anything, even if he traded with the devil!

However, now, he finally regrets that if the Germans are not a truly suitable friend, then the Americans are completely demons to Turkey! They don’t want Turkey to rise at all, nor do they even want Turkey to stay away from Germany! After analyzing the current situation, Kemal believes that the Americans are using Turkey’s own ambitions and differences to dismember Turkey!

"Okay, put the information you collected on the table. I want to be alone." Kemal said to his adjutant. From the moment Kemal was rescued, he had been thinking about the purpose of the Germans. Although Carlyus has always stated that the help provided by Bavaria is entirely based on previous friendships, how can Kemal, who has the dual identities of politicians and soldiers, believe it? Pure friendship? How much is this worth? Is 5,000 marks enough? According to his intuition, Kemal believes that the Germans will definitely come to find themselves at a suitable time and cooperate with him!

But now it seems that this is not the case? The Germans' arrangements cannot be said to be inconsiderate. They met with their family and subordinates on the fifth day after they arrived in Vienna. Then, they took a vacation until now. The actions of their families and subordinates have almost no restrictions. At least on the surface, all the expenses of Kemal and his group are provided by Austro-Hungarian. Various services are also considered thoughtful. If we only look at the quality of life, this is better than in Türkiye!

So, after experiencing the initial waiting, Kemal himself finally couldn't help it. He began to send his subordinates to collect intelligence. However, as a person who had basically no way in Vienna, the information he could collect was the so-called newspaper... Then Kemal and his adjutant began to look for clues from the newspapers to analyze the current situation in Turkey. At this time, Kemal had become a wealthy and idle man, but this did not prevent him from caring about his motherland in the distant Vienna!

Although the intelligence is so scarce, as a former senior executive of the Turkish government, Kemal can still draw a general context from it. Everything Belson said just now was too optimistic. In fact, in Kemal's opinion, Turkey's situation is worse than this!

Turkey's problem is not only in domestic infighting and war on the Arabian Peninsula. It is second only to the Mesopotamian Basin in the east of the empire, and a storm is also brewing, and Kemal has already smelled the bloody smell!

Kemal walked to the table and took out a newspaper from the newspaper. The contents of this newspaper were very simple, but it was a large arms trade between Skoda and Persia. A large number of rifles, machine guns and ammunition accumulated during the war were sold to this country that was very far away from Europe but very close to Turkey at a very low price! To outsiders, this was just a simple arms trade, but in Kemal's view, it was full of conspiracy!

Because Kemal knew that the size of Persian army would definitely not consume so much armament! And more importantly, the Persian army was not dominated by German equipment, but American equipment! As an important neighbor of Turkey, how many Persian troops did? All regular troops and reserve troops combined no more than 6 German reorganized divisions! That is, about 100,000 people, they already had some weapons. At this time, if there were no accidents, what was the purpose of Persia purchasing so many armaments?

Moreover, Kemal knew very well that Persia's current weapons and equipment were mainly mainly American and weapons! The Americans' layout in Persia was actually very early! After the war had not ended, but the Allies had already shown a decline, the Americans had already begun to contact Persia, and provided Persia with a large amount of weapons and equipment at a price that was almost free of charge, and sent officers to train Persian troops. Well, now the problem is that under normal organization, the Persians, who would never lack weapons, purchased a large amount of German weapons at this time?
