Tsarist Empire: Please call me Tsarist Majesty

Chapter 94 Treaty of Istanbul!!

“Your Excellency, is the Russian Empire trying to start an all-out war with the Empire?”

“Robert Cecil showed great anger in front of Izvorsky.”

Although, Robert Cecil is well aware.

Faced with this threat from the Russian Empire, they had to compromise and back down.

However, as the saying goes, the loser does not lose.

He is still very tough.

“Your Excellency, the Empire does not want to go to war with the Empire that never sets. However, in order to guarantee the interests of the empire, we have no choice. We just want the Empire of the Sun Never Set to know that the Tsarist Empire is not afraid of anyone! ”

Izvorsky is also very tough.

Robert Cecil sneered, the performance of the Tsarist Russian Empire this time was really beyond his expectations.

However, this also made Robert Cecil believe that the Russian Empire was really too much of a threat to the Empire where the sun never sets.

In order to stabilize the hegemonic position of the Empire, it is necessary to find ways to destroy the Russian Empire.

Otherwise, the threat of the Russian Empire to the Empire where the sun never sets will become greater and greater.

Robert Cecil met with Fatih Pasha, the Ottoman Foreign Minister, before leaving Istanbul.

“Very hug, Your Excellency Pasha, the empire is withdrawing from this peace talks. We cannot continue to put pressure on the Russians for the time being. Otherwise, a full-scale war would break out between the Empire and the Russian Empire. The Empire could not currently go to all-out war with the Russian Empire for the sake of the Ottoman Empire. Even, the empire has not broken the confidence of my empire to the bottom” Robert Sesi you look soft.

Fatih Pasha’s face was very ugly.

He is not a fool, he knows very well that the sun does not set and people want to get out.

Or rather, want to abandon ~ the Ottoman Empire.

However, the sun never sets and people directly pulled away, but what should they do?

“Your Excellency, what should we do then? The Russians will perish ours. ”

Fatihpa-Shah looked horrified.

Robert Cecil shook his head: “The Imperial Navy will stay in the Bosphorus for the time being, warn the Russians, they will not really destroy you.” You can seize this opportunity to sign a peace treaty with the Russians and end this war first. This time, you may pay a huge price. But there is no way around it. When the next war breaks out again, find another opportunity to get back all the losses today! ”

Fatih Pasha knew that this was a matter of no power.

Without the support of the people who never set, or rather the attitude of the people who never sets, the Russians will be even more unscrupulous.

If we can’t end the war and let it continue.

Well, the Ottoman Empire is really finished.

Although he was very aggrieved, angry, and even had a feeling of being pitted by the sun never setting, Fatih Pasha knew that he could not fall out with the sun at this time.

They still need the support of the sun never sets to restrain the Russians.

Otherwise, they would not be able to resist the Russians.

Straight after, Robert Cecil left Istanbul and left the peace talks.

However, the Royal Navy of the Sun Never Sets Empire still remained in the Sea of Marmara, which undoubtedly represented the attitude of the Sun Never Set Empire, and they were still occupying power for the Ottoman Empire.

Next, negotiations between the Russian Empire and the Ottoman Empire will undoubtedly be much easier.

“Your Excellency Pasha, this war was entirely the initiative of the Ottoman Empire to attack the Empire. Therefore, the Ottoman Empire had to admit responsibility for the defeat. The Rumelia region, including Istanbul, is to be ceded to the empire! ”

Izvorsky began to put forward conditions.

Fatih Pasha also knew very well that Rumelia could not be saved, and no one could make the Russians spit out the fat that had already been eaten in their mouths.

However, he still wants to fight for it again.

“Your Excellency, we can abandon Rumilia. However, Istanbul is going to be returned to us. Here, after all, is the capital of the Ottoman Empire! ”

Fatih Pasha said.

Izvolsky shook his head: “Your Excellency Pasha, this is impossible. Even if we abandon Istanbul, will you dare to make it the capital? In that case, in the next war, won’t we be able to easily take your capital? Instead of that, why not leave Istanbul to us! ”

Of course, the deeper reason is because Istanbul is on the edge of the Bosphorus, if not able to occupy here.

Then, the Russian Empire could not control the Bosphorus.

If the warships of the Tsarist Empire want to enter and exit the strait, they will still be restricted…

Seeing this, Fatih Pasha had to give up helplessly.

“Second, the Ottoman Empire must compensate the Empire for its losses and pay the Empire hundreds of millions of rubles.”

Izvorkisky said.

“A billion rubles? We simply can’t come up with that much money! ”

Fatih Pasha shook his head repeatedly.

For the Ottoman Empire, which had greatly declined in national strength, a billion rubles was already a lot of money.

“If the Ottoman Empire does not have so much money to pay this war reparations, then consider transferring the Libia region to my door!”

Izvolsky said with a smile.

Originally, North Africa was the territory of the Ottoman Empire.

However, because of the invasion of the Western powers, only Libia is now in the hands of the Ottoman Empire.

The rest of the world has become colonies of Western powers.

If the Russian Empire can control the Libian region, this will undoubtedly further strengthen the discourse power of the Russian Empire around the Mediterranean, and even echo the Balkans occupied by the Russian Empire, one south and one north.

Fatih Pasha, of course, would not agree.

Libia is already their only stronghold in North Africa, how can it be easily abandoned?

Besides, the amount of war reparations of one billion rubles is inevitably too large.

After some bargaining, the Russian Empire demanded that the Ottoman Empire pay 900 million rubles in reparations.

The Ottoman Empire had no choice but to agree.

But how to pay this war reparations, the Ottoman Empire still needs to think carefully.

They can only pay a part, and the rest, I’m afraid, will need to borrow from the Empire of the Sun Never Sets.

In addition, the Ottoman Empire also had to recognize that the warships of the Tsarist Empire had the right to freely navigate, in the Bosphorus, Ma You Mara Estuary Dardani You Haixian Gorge.

The Ottoman Empire had no objection to this.

Following this, Izvorsky and Fatih Pasha, representing the Tsarist and Ottoman Empires, respectively, signed their names on the peace treaty Maru…
