The signing of the Treaty of Peace meant the end of the war between the Russian Empire and the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

After the treaty entered into force, Austria-Hungary immediately paid war reparations of 720 million rubles to the Russian Empire. Of course, Austria-Hungary's finances simply could not come up with so much money. These war reparations were only collected by the Austro-Hungarian government borrowing from major domestic banks. The reason why they paid this war reparation so simply was completely to avoid long nights and dreams.

The Russian Imperial Army swept through the Balkans, occupied the whole of Rumilia, almost crushed the Ottoman Empire, and made Austria-Hungary feel great pressure and even fear. For fear that the Russian Empire would turn around and continue to use force against Austria-Hungary. In that case, they will be even more irresistible.

The Russian Imperial Army also withdrew from the territory of Austria-Hungary. At the same time, those Austro-Hungarian prisoners of war held in prisoner-of-war camps were also unconditionally released by the Russian Empire. Among them, naturally including Archduke Ferdinand, Crown Prince of Austria-Hungary.

Of course, for Archduke Ferdinand, this 01 defeat and capture was completely a great shame.

From now on, the Russian Empire has been regarded as a life-and-death enemy by Archduke Ferdinand. His next goal in life is probably to defeat the Russian Empire and take revenge.

Tsarist Empire, Mosk, K-Palace.

Izvulsky, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Empire, brought back the original copy of the Berlin Peace Treaty and gave it to Tsar Mikhail.

Mikhail flipped through the treaty, read the various articles on it, and couldn't help but smile.

He had a sense of changing history, which made him very excited.

It seems that the Russian Empire has now embarked on the road to rise. However, Austria-Hungary has sadly become their stepping stone.

For the Russian Empire, it was already very good to be able to reach such a peace treaty under the pressure of the Germanic Empire. Their benefits are already very large.

"Your Excellency Foreign Secretary, very good, you did a beautiful job this time!" Mikhail closed the original of the treaty.

"Your Majesty, this is all because the strength of the empire has been greatly improved. That's why huge benefits can be gained at the negotiating table. Of course, if it were not for the pressure of the Germans, the empire would have been able to gain more. Izvolsky looked regretful.

Mikhail nodded: "In any case, Austria-Hungary is an ally of the Germans, and they will naturally fully support Austria-Hungary." With the current strength of the empire, although it is not afraid of the Germans. However, after all, it is not yet the time to go to a full-scale confrontation with the Germans. Wait for a while. After the strength of the empire is improved again, the future of the empire and the Germans will eventually fight. Only the winner can become the hegemon of the European continent and dominate the entire European continent! "

Izvolsky nodded repeatedly.

The Russian Empire was known to have a desire to dominate the European continent. And the Germanic Empire, as a newly rising state. In industry, the Russian Empire has already been crushed. In military terms, there are also huge advantages. The Germanic people also wanted to become the hegemon of all Europe and even the whole world.

This makes it possible for a decisive battle between the two sides sooner or later.

It's just that the ambition shown by the Germans is too great, which will make the current world hegemon the Sun Eversetting Empire very uneasy. This is also the reason why in another time and space, the Sun Never Set Empire and the Tsarist Russian Empire, temporarily put aside their prejudices and unite to deal with the Germanic Empire.

Of course, in this time and space, Mikhail still hopes that the people of the sun can join in to deal with the Germans. In this way, the Russian Empire could defeat the Germans at the least cost and become the hegemon of Europe.

After all, even if the Russian Empire and the Sun Never Set Empire join forces, it will only be temporary. Once the war is over, the two sides will be rivals again. Even, in order to compete for hegemony, large-scale conflicts and even wars will inevitably break out next. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) )

"This time, we were able to get 720 million rubles of war reparations from Austria-Hungary, which is already very good. This money will be used as military expenditure to pay for the empire's consumption in this war and the formation of new army groups. If there is any leftover, it will be used in the construction of the Imperial Army and Navy in the future! "Mikhail has already decided what this war reparations will be used for.

The Russian Empire used hundreds of thousands of people to start a great war, and the various materials consumed every day were astronomical. If the war reparations were not obtained, and all the money of the Russian Empire was paid, this would inevitably make the finances of the Russian Empire worse.

After all, in order to promote agricultural reform, infrastructure construction and industrialization, the Russian Empire's finances were already heavily indebted. Even the assets of the royal family were lent to the treasury.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" The top officials of the Russian Empire had no opinion on this.

"Gentlemen, the war between the Empire and Austria-Hungary is over. Then, the next step is for the empire to deal with the Ottoman Empire with all its might. The empire's military operations in the Balkans have come to an end and are nearing completion. Next, it is necessary to make the Ottomans admit defeat and cede the entire 110th district of Rumelia to the empire! Mikhail continued.

"Your Majesty, the 1st Army of the Imperial Army can make the appearance of going through the Bosphorus. At the same time, the 4th Army also stepped up its offensive, which was bound to make the Ottoman Empire very nervous. Especially since Austria-Hungary had withdrawn from the war, it was even more impossible for them to continue to hold on. The Chief of the General Staff, Admiral Brusilov, advised.

Mikhail nodded and took the suggestion.

The main force of the 1st Army of the Imperial Russian Army approached the Bosphorus and Dardanelles, and the Black Sea Fleet of the Imperial Russian Navy also appeared in the Bosphorus.

It can be said that the Russian Empire completely put on a posture of wanting to cross the strait and continue to attack the Ottoman Empire. This frightened the Ottoman high-ranking officials, including Sultan Abdulhamid II.

Even the proud King Abdulhamid II knew that if the war continued, the Ottoman Empire would surely collapse. Therefore, the Ottomans also recognized and began to seek peace with the Russian Empire.

Of course, in order to protect their interests as much as possible, the Ottomans also asked the Sun Never Set Empire for help, asking the Sun Never Set Empire to mediate this war.
