Tsarist Russia: Please Call Me Your Majesty The Tsar

Chapter 81 Taking Advantage Of The Fire To Rob (Sixth More, Please Subscribe!)

The war between the Tsarist Russian Empire and the Ottoman Empire plunged the entire Balkan Peninsula into a bloodbath.

All the countries in the Balkan Peninsula know that the result of this battle will directly determine the next power structure in the Balkan Peninsula.

When the war was at its most intense, none of the countries on the Balkan Peninsula dared to act rashly for fear of being involved. However, as the Tsarist Russian Empire severely damaged the Austro-Hungarian Empire, defeated the Ottoman Empire, and swept across the entire Balkan Peninsula, those countries began to move around.

King Alexander I of the Kingdom of Serbia and Prince Milan, commander of the army, hoped to take this opportunity to attack Rumelia and occupy part of the territory to expand the territory and population of the Kingdom of Serbia.

You must know that the current Kingdom of Serbia has a total population of just over 2.4 million people, making it an out-and-out small country.

"Gentlemen, the army of the Tsarist Russian Empire has already defeated the army of the Ottoman Empire. In the entire Rumelia region, there are not many Ottoman troops left. When we launch an attack at this time, no one can resist us at all. We are completely You can seize this opportunity to take the opportunity to obtain the territory of the 02 Great Emperor!" said the army commander, Prince Milan.

Prince Milan was pro-Austro-Hungarian and deeply trusted by the young King Alexander I.

Although, the main race of the Kingdom of Serbia are Slavs. At the same time, in the fight against the Ottoman Empire, they also received the support of the Tsarist Empire. However, there are still many people who are pro-Austro-Hungarian among the high-level people in the kingdom.

The main reason is that the Austro-Hungarian Empire is close at hand, while the Tsarist Russian Empire is too far away from the Balkan Peninsula.

King Alexander I is only twenty-two years old now, and it is the time when he is young and vigorous.

For a monarch, there is nothing more interesting to him than expanding his territory.

King Alexander I was very interested in Prince Milan's suggestion.

"Your Majesty, this war is now between the Tsarist Russian Empire and the Ottoman Empire. The Tsarist Russian Empire is about to win. If not, Rumelia will become the spoils of the Tsarist Russian Empire. If we launch an attack at this time , Occupy those territories. I am afraid that this will make the Tsarist Empire very dissatisfied." The Prime Minister of the Kingdom reminded.

However, at this time Alexander I could no longer listen to these advices.

The entire Rumelia covers an area of ​​more than 200,000 square kilometers. This is already several times the territory of the Kingdom of Serbia, which naturally made him extremely jealous.

At the same time, the Tsarist Russian Army defeated the Ottomans so easily, which made King Alexander I believe that the Ottoman Empire was nothing more than a paper tiger.

If it had been known earlier, the Kingdom of Serbia should have taken the lead in attacking the Ottoman Empire. In that case, maybe they will be able to occupy a large area of ​​territory.

It was too late to say anything now, but he really didn't want to let go of such a good opportunity.

"There is no need to say anything more. It is rare to have such a good opportunity. We must not miss it. Of course, we are the same Slavs as the Tsarist Empire. Now, the Tsarist Empire is fighting the Ottoman Empire. Naturally, we will send troops to help them. This is the responsibility of compatriots. At that time, even if the Tsarist Russian Empire is dissatisfied, it will not be able to do anything to us. Order our army to dispatch immediately!" King Alexander I ordered.

Time is urgent now, and he doesn't want to waste any more time.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Prince Milan's face was full of smiles.

"Your Majesty, we can invite the Kingdom of Greece and Montenegro to act with us. In this way, even if the Tsarist Empire is dissatisfied, we can also report to them to warm up and bear the pressure together." Seeing that the Prime Minister of the Kingdom could not persuade His Majesty the King, he could only Make new suggestions.

Alexander I thought about it, although he didn't want to share these lands with other countries.

However, when one thinks that the Tsarist Russian Empire is so powerful. Even with just one little finger, the Kingdom of Serbia can be crushed to death. So, in order to avoid angering the Tsarist Empire afterwards, bear the pressure alone. Therefore, Alexander I still chose to unite with the Kingdom of Greece and Montenegro.

The current Montenegro has a small population, only about 200,000. Such a country is a downright small country in the whole of Europe.

The Kingdom of Greece also has only about 2.4 million people, comparable to the Kingdom of Serbia. However, whether it is economic strength or military strength [Greek Kingdom is stronger.

In addition, the relationship between the Greek wax kingdom and the empire on which the sun never sets is a little closer.

In this case, even if it offends the Tsarist Russian Empire, the Kingdom of Xiwa is backed by the Empire on which the sun never sets.

The Kingdom of Greece is also very interested in expanding to Rumelia.

Over the years, the Kingdom of Greece has also been under tremendous pressure from the Ottoman Empire.

Now that the Ottoman Empire has been defeated, they naturally cannot let go of this good opportunity.

Although, the Kingdom of Greece has a huge fear of the Tsarist Empire, and is deeply afraid that it will anger the Tsarist Empire.

However, their greed for territory still outweighed their fear of the Tsarist Empire.

Therefore, the Kingdom of Greece and the Kingdom of Serbia almost hit it off.

467 AD On September 21, 1798, the Kingdom of Serbia, Montenegro and the Kingdom of Greece declared war on the Ottoman Empire almost at the same time.

Afterwards, the armies of these three countries immediately crossed the border [Rumelia marched.

However, although these three countries declared war on the Ottoman Empire. However, their army showed no signs of attacking the Ottoman army, but began to seize the territory of Rumelia.

At this moment, the army of the Ottoman Empire stationed in Rumelia has been severely damaged by the Tsarist Russian Army. The rest of the troops were almost being driven away by the Tsarist Russian Empire Army.

Therefore, the armies of the Kingdom of Serbia, the Kingdom of Montenegro, and the Kingdom of Greece hardly encountered any resistance and interception, as if they were in a land of no one.

This made the three of them quickly divide up the Macedonian region.

This is also because the Tsarist Russian Empire saw such a situation and sent cavalry to intercept it, and the two sides started a confrontation.

Otherwise, maybe more land will fall into the hands of the Kingdom of Serbia, Montenegro and the Kingdom of Greece.

Under the guise of going to war against the Ottoman Empire, they clearly took advantage of the fire to rob the Ottomans' territory. In other words, they want to snatch the fruits of victory of the Tsarist Russian Empire.
