The post-war peace meeting was held in Istanbul, and some people were happy and some were sad.△↗The joy was naturally the Ottoman Turkish Empire. Sultan Abdul Maijid I claimed that this was a manifestation of the strength of the Ottoman Turkish Empire and an recognition of the strength of the Ottoman Turkish Empire in all countries. In the future world system, the Ottoman Turkish Empire will play a more important role.

The Prussian Kingdom also thought that this was a defeat of the Chinese Empire's plan. William I and his ministers were very excited. Of course, although the Chinese Empire was a little dissatisfied, it was not yet at the point of worrying. It didn't matter where the peace meeting was held. What was important was how much benefit the empire could get at this peace meeting. This was the most important thing.

This sentence is the speech of the Emperor Long Yufei on a radio. When the Empire agreed to the meeting to be held in Istanbul, the people of the Empire were very angry about this. Outside the building of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Empire, radical people even held protests, leaving Foreign Minister Wei Yuan dull. In order to alleviate the anger of the people, the Emperor Long Yufei made a public speech. Long Yufei claimed that although the war was over, the Empire became a well-deserved world hegemon. However, the empire's hegemony was not stable, and there were still people who wanted to challenge the empire's hegemony. Therefore, in the future, the empire needs to accelerate its development and strengthen its strength to cope with new challenges.

In addition, Long Yufei also assured the people that the empire will definitely achieve results that satisfy the people during this negotiation. The benefits the empire should obtain will never be affected by the change of the venue of the peace meeting. Otherwise, the empire will continue the war.

Long Yufei's speech was supported by the people of the empire. Everyone believes that in this world war, the empire is the country with the most efforts. In this congregation, the empire deserves the largest fruit of victory. If other countries conspire to seize the fruit of victory that the empire deserves, then the empire will support the empire to start a war against the enemy again.

It can be said that this is also a statement between Long Yufei and the entire empire. The attitude expressed by the Chinese Empire made the Ottoman Turkish Empire and the Prussian Kingdom, who were overjoyed, worry a little. They had a feeling that this time it seemed to stimulate the Chinese Empire. And offending the Chinese Empire would not seem to be a good thing for them! If the two sides broke up again at the meeting, would it lead to more tension in the situation and directly trigger a new round of war?

However, generally speaking, after the venue and time of the meeting were determined, all countries began to prepare to send delegations to attend the meeting. The prime ministers or prime ministers of various victorious and defeated countries, as well as foreign ministers, will go to Istanbul to attend the meeting. Some important countries will also send more noble figures. For example, the imperial crown prince Longhua will represent the empire to attend the meeting. After learning the news, the Prussian Kingdom also stated that the Crown Prince William Frederick of Prussia will also go to Istanbul to participate in the meeting. It can be said that the confrontation between the Chinese Empire and the Prussian Kingdom has begun from this meeting. Then, it is time to see how several victorious countries should express their opinions.

The Kingdom of Belgium and the Kingdom of Spain are both die-hard allies of the empire. Although they paid a great price in this war, they, as victorious countries, will also gain huge benefits this time. They naturally support the Chinese Empire.

However, neither the Kingdom of Spain nor the Kingdom of Belgium can be considered a powerful country. Especially the Kingdom of Belgium. During the war, they paid the price of millions of national casualties, which directly dropped the total population of the country to more than three million. Moreover, the people who were killed and injured were almost all young people, which directly caused most of the young generation of the country to be killed and injured. For the Kingdom of Belgium, it was undoubtedly a heavy blow. Without a ten or twenty years of rest, the country would not be able to recover.

Therefore, the help the Kingdom of Spain and the Kingdom of Belgium can provide to the empire is very limited. If you really want to go to war with the Kingdom of Prussia, you can only rely on your own strength. The Kingdom of Spain and the Kingdom of Belgium will provide the empire with a foothold in Europe at most.

In comparison, the Ottoman Turkish Empire is much stronger. In terms of population, the Ottoman Turkish Empire has a population of more than 30 million. Its geographical location is very important. In addition, after obtaining Ukraine, the Ottoman Turkish Empire no longer needs to worry about food, and the country's strength has undoubtedly reached a higher level. Therefore, the Chinese Empire and the Prussian Kingdom hope to win over the Ottoman Turkish Empire. This time, when the Chinese Empire and the Prussian Kingdom were competing for the venue for the meeting, the Ottoman Turkish Empire picked up a cheap one.

"Your Majesty, the peace meeting is scheduled for November 6, and there are more than two months left before now. However, there are still many things to deal with. We have to arrive in Istanbul in advance!" Foreign Minister Wei Yuan's face was tense. This time, because the venue of the peace meeting was held in Istanbul, he was under a lot of pressure. He also made up his mind that this time, at the Istanbul Peace Conference, we must win the greatest interests for the empire. Otherwise, we would really have no shame to return to China to meet our fellow villagers.

"Well! It's better to go earlier. Contact the allies of the empire more. At this meeting, they must be consistent with the empire. In addition, the empire also needs to support the legitimate interests of the allies of the empire." Long Yufei said. At this meeting, the victorious country was to slaughter the defeated country, and in addition, there was also inseparable from intrigue between the victorious countries. It can be said that the delegation of the empire this time had a great responsibility.

"Your Majesty, then we will set out in three days!" Cabinet Prime Minister Lin Zihao also said. Although there are still many things to deal with in China. However, the Istanbul Peace Conference is the top priority. Therefore, Lin Zihao also needs to temporarily put down his work and go to Istanbul to attend the Peace Conference.

"Well! After arriving in Istanbul, you should remind the crown prince more and not let him make mistakes." Long Yufei said. The crown prince of the empire is now 17 years old. As the future successor of the empire, Long Yufei has begun to deliberately train him. After all, Long Yufei is already forty-five years this year. At most, he can command the empire for twenty years. Next, the crown prince Longhua has to command the entire empire.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Lin Zihao nodded.

Originally, they were worried that Prince Longhua would encounter an unexpected accident when he went to Istanbul, so they opposed Longhua's visit to Istanbul. However, Long Yufei said that the empire has become the world overlord, who would dare to use such a despicable trick to deal with the empire? If they dare to attack the crown prince, then what awaits them will be completely destroyed.

In addition, letting the Crown Prince Longhua attend this meeting can also increase his knowledge. Of course, the main affairs of the delegation and the empire's position in the meeting were still decided by Lin Zihao and Wei Yuan. Crown Prince Longhua is just a symbol and has no actual power. As young as he was, he could not compare with the heads of government and diplomats of various countries. All of those guys were old foxes.

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Navy will send a cruiser fleet to escort His Royal Highness the Prince, and the Prime Minister and the Foreign Minister will go to Istanbul. After passing the Suez Canal, four "Qin-class" battleships and four "Western Han-class" battleships of the Imperial Navy's 1st Fleet will escort them to Istanbul." General Sun Hao, chief of staff, said.

"Well! The main warships of the Imperial Navy went to Istanbul, which mainly played a deterrent role, let them see how powerful the Imperial Navy is. If you want to challenge the Imperial Navy, you must first have a powerful navy. Otherwise, any behavior of challenging the Imperial will be a humiliation!" Long Yufei nodded.

The two fleets of the Imperial Navy have a total of 24 battleships. These battleships form the empire's maritime steel wall. No country can now compare with the empire. The powerful battleships are the symbol of the most powerful force of this era.

Long Yufei could even imagine how much shock the Turks would be when the eight battleships of the Imperial Navy arrived in Istanbul. The expression on his face of the Sultan Abdul Maijid I of the Ottoman Turkish Empire, whose ambitions had just expanded, would be very exciting!

In addition, as the Imperial Navy's "Tang-class" battleship is about to start construction, the "Qin-class" battleship and the "Western Han-class" battleship have become a bit old. In this maritime decisive battle with Britain, the battleships of these two levels were damaged to varying degrees. Although they have been repaired, they are definitely not as good as the new ship. In addition, the 280mm caliber main gun is too small and is not suitable for future maritime operations. If we can take advantage of this opportunity to sell the Imperial Navy's "Qin-class" battleships and the "Western Han-class" battleships, the Empire will be able to obtain more funds to build new battleships.

According to the analysis of the General Staff, even without the "Qin-class" battleships and the "Western Han-class" battleships, the eight "Eastern Han-class" battleships of the Imperial Navy can still safeguard the empire's maritime interests. After the next level of the "Tang-class" battleships are put into service in two and a half years, the strength of the Imperial Navy will be restored again.
