Germanic Empire: Please call me Wilhelm III
Chapter 112
Thanks to the book friends ** for the tip!
In 1713 AD, the First Balkan War ended and the Ottoman Empire suffered a crushing defeat and the Balkan Alliance consisting of the kingdoms of Serbia, Greece and Borgaria, and Montenegro was victorious.
This forced the Ottoman Empire to give up all European territories except Constantinople.
The Ottoman Empire was hit hard, and it can be said that this powerful empire, which once threatened Europe and single-handedly fought the whole of Europe, has been weakened to the extreme.
Just one month after the end of the First Balkan War, the Second Balkan War broke out. This time, the Kingdom of Servia and the Kingdom of Greek Wax allied to attack the Kingdom of Borgia. Subsequently, the kingdom of Romenia joined in and declared war on the kingdom of Borgaria. The Ottoman Empire also wanted a piece of the pie and joined the war against the kingdom of Bogaria.
In the case of singling out several countries, the Kingdom of Borgaria was not an opponent in the first place, and soon failed.
The Kingdom of Serbia acquired large territories from the Kingdom of Borgaria. The kingdom of and the kingdom of Romea also made their own gains. The Ottoman Empire, on the other hand, did not gain anything. This made the Ottoman Empire very dissatisfied.
Moreover, after these two wars, the Kingdom of Serbia has become the most powerful country in the Balkans. Even compared with several powerful countries, there is still a big gap. However, the Kingdom of Serbia has become an important force in the Balkans.
In particular, the Kingdom of Serbia also received the full support of the Russian Empire. After all, they are all Slavs. The Russian Empire also hoped to intervene in the Balkans with the help of the Kingdom of Serbia. It even intervened in the situation in the Balkans and realized expansion in the Balkans.
All along, the Russian Empire tried to find a freeze-free port. But unfortunately, it was intercepted by the Sun Never Set Empire and other countries. Not only lost in the Crimean War, but also lost to the Toyo Empire supported by the Sun Never Set Empire. Even the attempts of the Russian Empire to expand in the Afukhan region in West Asia were intercepted by the Empire of the Sun Never Setting.
The Russian Empire was like a powerful polar bear, but it was trapped.
However, the current Russian Empire inherited the alliance with the Gallic State, and the Sun Never Set Empire also joined. This turned the three countries from former rivals into allies. The international situation of the Russian Empire has changed dramatically.
Also interested in expansion in the Balkans was undoubtedly Austria-Hungary. Although the composition of the Austro-Hungarian Empire was already very complex, there were many internal contradictions. However, this did not prevent Austria-Hungary from continuing its outward expansion.
Or, for such a vast empire, outward expansion has become the driving force for their continuity.
Austria-Hungary hoped to expand in the Balkans and annex the Kingdom of Serbia to gain real control over the Balkans.
It’s just that the Kingdom of Serbia has the support of the Russian Empire behind it. At the same time, the Sun Never Set Empire and the Galls were supporting the Kingdom of Serbia and preventing the expansion of Austria-Hungary into the Balkans.
Even Austria-Hungary’s nominal ally, the Kingdom of Caesar in the Allied Group, was equally reluctant to see Austria-Hungary expand in the Balkans.
The Caesar kingdom also wanted to expand in the Balkans, which made them nominally allies with Austria-Hungary. But in reality, it is a state of hostility.
The conflict between the Kingdom of Caesar and Austria-Hungary has a long history. There are contradictions not only in the Balkans, but also in the Adriatic Sea. There is even the disputed region, Trieste.
The Kingdom of Caesars considered Trieste to belong to them, but it was occupied by Austria-Hungary. And Trieste, which Austria-Hungary naturally could not give up, was their most important coastal city and the anchorage of the Austro-Hungarian Navy. If Trieste was lost, Austria-Hungary would not have become a landlocked country. However, there will be no more suitable port as Trieste.
Therefore, Austria-Hungary could not have given up Trieste. This made the contradiction between Austria-Hungary and the Caesar Kingdom almost irreconcilable.

The high-ranking officials of the Germanic Empire are also discussing the current situation.
“Your Majesty, judging from the current situation, the Ottoman Empire has suffered a great loss in the Balkans. With the exception of Constantinople, they had already lost all their lands in the Balkans. The name of the sick man of West Asia is really worthy of the name! The current Ottoman Empire is in extreme decline. Shoubi Luo couldn’t help but sigh.
The other high-ranking officials of the Germanic Empire also nodded their heads one after another.
Once upon a time, the Ottoman Empire was a nightmare for all of Europe! Hit the whole of Europe and fall into the flowers. It would even take the whole of Europe to unite to be able to deal with it.
But now the Ottoman Empire is constantly declining, constantly declining.
The Russian Empire almost pressed the Ottoman Empire to the ground and constantly rubbed, and through war after war, the Ottoman Empire lost troops and lost a lot of territory.
The current Ottoman Empire, except for the core area of Asia Minor, the rest of the region is almost nominally ruled. They have become colonies of various countries.
It can be said that the Ottoman Empire is no longer a first-class power in the world, and it is not much better than third-rate powers.
“Gentlemen, the decline of the Ottoman Empire may be a good thing for us, and we may be able to convince the Ottoman Empire to join our alliance and become our ally.” August said.
“Your Majesty, this is indeed a solution. Although the Ottoman Empire was getting weaker, its geographical location was very important. Just because they guarded the Dardanelles and were able to prevent the Russian Empire from entering the Mediterranean, it was already very important! Admiral Moltke Jr. said.
“Foreign education departments can contact the Ottoman Empire, and if they are willing to join the alliance, after the war is over, they can gain great benefits.” August said.
“Yes, Your Majesty!” Foreign Secretary Holwig replied.
“In addition, the situation in the Balkans is now becoming more and more responsible. The kingdom of Serbia has risen with the support of the Russian Empire, the Sun Never Sets Empire and the Gallic State. And our ally Austria-Hungary is also determined to win the Balkans. The entire Balkan Peninsula has become a powder keg! August sighed.
