Chapter 416
"Are you crazy? If there is an invasion of foreign enemies, you will launch a coup?" the prince said in surprise.
"It is precisely because of foreign invasion that our military can implement military control! The diehards must be suppressed. If your country supports us, then in the case of foreign invasion, the neutral faction will choose us who have the most chance to take power. Only with the state power can we concentrate the national strength against the Italians and have enough funds for your country's military expenditure." Shefke said with a smile.
"You are so bold." The prince sighed.
"If your country is forced to the point of no end, you must be more courageous than me!" General Shefkai said with a wry smile. "Do you mind if I smoke a cigarette?
"It's a private occasion," the prince said.
"My motherland's former glory is gone, and it has become a weak patient. Russians, British and Italians are all trying to tear off a piece of meat from us. I once demanded myself by the standards of a soldier, hoping to save the country, but the situation has not improved."
"I gradually realized that it was not me who was wrong, but this country. The government of this country has become corrupt, and the Sudan is arrogant and ignorant. No matter how hard we try, we have no choice. So we began to look for all like-minded people and those who can help us. We have looked for British people and French people, but they all failed. You are the best partner at present, and we will give enough rewards for your efforts. At the latest day after tomorrow, you can see my sincerity!" General Shefke said earnestly.
"In addition, regardless of whether your country helps us or not, we will still do our best to protect our territory. The Youth Turkish Party and the Turkish Army will organize volunteers to go to Africa, and it will be difficult for us to draw out enough weapons to arm them in a short period of time. I hope Bavaria can provide some help and we will pay the relevant funds at normal prices." General Sevke said. The general's troops need to deal with domestic enemies at the same time and be wary of the Balkan direction. It is naturally difficult for him to draw out enough weapons to arm the lonely army that is about to be sent abroad. The reason why it agreed to hand over the bank account to the prince was actually to purchase weapons!
"How many weapons do you want?" the prince asked straightforwardly.
"Our volunteer army has at least 6,000 people!" Shefkai said after thinking about it.
"Very good. We will send a 100-person teaching team to guide this force to fight. The weapons they need can be prepared within 5 days and transported to Africa within half a month." The prince's answer was also very straightforward.
The 6,000-man army is only 2 infantry regiments. Now there are four conventional troops in Bavaria, with more than 100,000 people. It is enough to collect some inventory from the arsenal. This is not difficult for the prince. However, the prince also reminded General Sevke to prepare more materials and prepare for long-term combat.
Two days later, the prince did see the Turks' "sincerity". After informing the Turks, the prince decisively allocated a total of 150,000 pounds from it, which was used as the initial "start-up capital" including but not only for arms sold to the Turks, fees for personnel dispatch, various supplies, etc.
