The Ottoman Turkish Empire is known as the third most powerful country in the world, second only to the Chinese Empire and the German Empire. In fact, the title of this third most powerful country is controversial. The Spanish Kingdom, a die-hard ally of the Chinese Empire, is actually not weak compared to the Ottoman Turkish Empire. However, the territory and population of the Spanish Kingdom are smaller than that of the Ottoman Turkish Empire. But if it is better than industrial strength and military strength, the Spanish Kingdom may not necessarily lose to the Ottoman Turkish Empire.

After the establishment of the Holy Alliance and the Peace Alliance, the situation in the world once again became antagonistic. The opposition between the two military alliances made the situation in the world tense again. Even the pace of war seemed to be approaching.

Because of its geographical location, the Ottoman Turkish Empire mastered the finale of the transportation routes connected to Europe. Since ancient times, it has been a place for military and military struggles. No matter which side the Ottoman Turkish Empire is going to, it will play a great role. Therefore, the Holy Alliance and the Peace Alliance have tried their best to win over the Ottoman Turkish Empire. Unfortunately, the Ottoman Turkish Empire seems to be intentionally neutral and wants to make a choice until the situation is clear. However, judging from the contradiction between the Ottoman Turkish Empire and other countries, the possibility of them joining the Holy Alliance is undoubtedly much greater.

The Ottoman Turkish Empire has been obsessed with the Persian Gulf to this day, which makes it impossible to resolve the conflict between them and the Chinese Empire. There will inevitably be conflicts or even wars between the two countries due to the Persian Gulf issue. Even the Ottoman Turkish Empire has been waiting for opportunities. When the Chinese Empire is defeated in the war, then they will have the chance to retake the Persian Gulf.

The Empire's refusal to join the Peace Alliance, the Empire Emperor Long Yufei and a group of senior officials were very dissatisfied with the fact that the Ottoman Turkish Empire joined the Peace Alliance, which would make the Alliance more advantageous in future wars. However, even if the Ottoman Turkish Empire did not join the Alliance, the Alliance was confident of winning. Therefore, in order to avoid the Ottoman Turkish Empire joining the Holy Alliance, thus threatening the Empire. Long Yufei ordered to launch a new round of attacks on the Ottoman Turkish Empire and completely resolve this problem.

Of course, the Empire will not take action by itself, and will not even send Imperial soldiers to launch an attack on the Ottoman Turkish Empire. After all, this is very likely to trigger a full-scale war. The Holy Alliance will also take the opportunity to intervene. If the war breaks out now, it is not in the interests of the Empire.

"Your Majesty, according to the information we have obtained, there are now a total of one million people in the Ottoman Turkish Army. If mobilized, they can arm two million troops. If it is extreme mobilization, they can also arm more troops. However, with the industrial strength of the Ottoman Turkish Empire, arming two million troops is already their limit. In addition, more than half of the one million troops in the Ottoman Turkish Empire are deployed in the Ukrainian plains and the Balkans to suppress the resistance of the locals. Part of the other troops are deployed in the surrounding areas of Istanbul. In Libya, Tunisia and Algeria, one has also been deployed in Libya, Tunisia and Algeria.

Some troops and the remaining troops are deployed in other regions. The Ottoman Turkish Empire's navy now has nine battleships, including four German-made "Brandenburg-class" battleships, two "Western Han-class" battleships, and three "Qin-class" battleships. In addition, before the end of this year, they will also serve two German-made "Caesar Frederick III" battleships. Overall, the military strength of the Ottoman Turkish Empire is already very good. As long as they are not powerful countries like the Empire or the German Empire to fight against them, they can remain undefeated!" General Liu Zhongming, Chief of Staff, analyzed.

"Well! I don't want to attack the Ottoman Turkish Empire. However, they are ungrateful and refuse to join the peace alliance led by the Empire. In this way, they are very likely to become enemies of the Empire. Therefore, for the sake of the interests of the Empire, the Empire has to take action first!" Long Yufei nodded. The military strength of the Ottoman Turkish Empire is indeed good, but if they try to fight against the Empire, the outcome will undoubtedly be very miserable. The Empire will never allow the threat to continue.

"Your Majesty, the MIIS has contacted the Ukrainians, Slavs, Greeks, Arabs and minority capitals in North Africa. They are all resisting the rule of the Ottoman Turkish Empire. If the empire can support them, the resistance will become stronger and stronger. At that time, the Ottoman Turkish Empire will be overwhelmed!" said Marshal Luo Hongtao, Director of the MIIS.

"Well. However, these resistances cannot really shake the foundation of the Ottoman Turkish Empire. The key is to have a larger war!" Long Yufei said. Although the nations ruled by the Ottoman Turkish Empire for hundreds of years have resisted their rule. However, at least from the current situation, the rule of the Ottoman Turkish Empire is still very stable. Of course, the main reason is that the Ottoman Turkish Empire won the world war and gained a lot of benefits. With the help of gaining benefits in the war, the industry and military of the Ottoman Turkish Empire have developed greatly. This has made it impossible for those rebel forces to fight against the Ottoman Turkish Empire at all and have been wiped out many of them.

"Your Majesty, under the rule of the Ottoman Turkish Empire, Egypt is the only one who can confront the central government! Since Muhammad Ali, Egypt has become a de facto independent country. It is just that it belongs to the Ottoman Turkish Empire in name. Moreover, Egypt now has a population of more than 7 million, and they have conquered Sudan. If the population of Sudan is added, Egypt can control tens of millions. In addition, they have strong military strength, in addition to the fact that they have strong military strength,

In addition to the relatively weak naval force, as long as the army has advanced equipment, it will not be weaker than the Ottoman Turkish Empire. If the empire could support Egypt, they would definitely dare to resist the Ottoman Turkish Empire!" Marshal Luo Hongtao continued. Egypt, as a region under the jurisdiction of the Ottoman Turkish Empire, had actually had a rebellious spirit. It was only because the Ottoman Turkish Empire was powerful that they had to continue to belong to the Ottoman Turkish Empire in name.

"You can contact the Egyptians. As long as they are willing to become an ally of the Empire in the Middle East, we will support them to become an independent country and even become the overlord of North Africa!" Long Yufei said. Even if Egypt becomes stronger, it will be just an inconspicuous little point in the eyes of the Empire. Therefore, the Empire would rather support Egypt, make them stronger and split the Ottoman Turkish Empire.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Marshal Luo Hongtao nodded. With the approval of the imperial emperor Long Yufei, the next plan can continue. The empire can sell a large number of weapons to Egypt to strengthen Egypt's military strength, thereby achieving the goal of weakening the Ottoman Turkish Empire.

"The empire must prepare early for the issue of the Ottoman Turkish Empire's navy. Egypt's navy is almost blank. If the Ottoman Turkish Empire dispatches naval forces to attack Egypt, they will be unable to resist at all!" Long Yufei said.

"Your Majesty, this is easy to solve. As long as the war breaks out, the Imperial Navy can join forces with the Spanish Navy to conduct exercises at the exit of the Suez Canal to protect the safety of the canal. As long as the Ottoman Turkish Empire was not kicked by a donkey, they would not dare to take action!" said Marshal Wei Yong, the Minister of Navy. Of course, this was obviously helping Egypt.

"In this case, wouldn't I push the Ottoman Turkish Empire to the Holy Alliance?" said Foreign Minister Wei Yuan.

"What does that matter? After losing North Africa, the Ottoman Turkish Empire will lose tens of millions of people and a large number of resources, and their strength has been greatly damaged. Even if they join the Holy Alliance, their role will be very limited!" said Marshal Sun Hao, the Minister of Army.

"Well! But if we can, we'd better further weaken the Ottoman Turkish Empire!" Long Yufei's eyes fell on the map hanging on the wall.

The center of the ruling of the Ottoman Turkish Empire was in the Asia Minor Peninsula, and now it has the Ukrainian plain and the Balkan Peninsula. As for North Africa and the Middle East, it is actually just a barren land.

"The Military Intelligence Agency contacted the Arabs and promised them that the Empire could support them to break away from the Ottoman Turkish Empire and become an independent country. However, the Empire needed to obtain the privilege of mining mineral resources in the Arabian Peninsula!" Long Yufei said. The only thing that can attract Long Yufei was oil and natural gas resources. Although the Persian Gulf was already under the control of the Empire, there were still many oil fields on the Arabian Peninsula.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Marshal Luo Hongtao nodded. Although the Arabian Peninsula is a barren land full of yellow sand, since Long Yufei has requirements, it is obvious that there are also many mineral resources buried under these deserts. The biggest possibility is oil. Although the empire has a lot of oil now, who will have more oil resources?

"In addition, let the Kingdom of Afghanistan be prepared. They can join the war as a private identity. If they can win, they can gain the southern part of the Caucasus Mountains and the eastern part of the Asia Minor Peninsula. Further weaken the strength of the Ottoman Turkish Empire!" Long Yufei said. Egypt alone is not enough to defeat the Ottoman Turkish Empire, but if an Afghan Kingdom is added, it may be different.
