Valley Emperor

The current overseas expansion of the Datang Empire is mainly concentrated in some regions with rich resources or good agricultural conditions, such as the Americas, such as South Africa and other regions, which are the key expansion and immigration areas of the Datang Empire, otherwise the Datang Empire will not The Kingdom of Spain has negotiated the purchase of the American colonies. You must know that the Tang Dynasty in that place has already asked for more than ten million Tang yuan. Unfortunately, the Spaniards asked for fifty million yuan, and the price could not be agreed at this time.

In addition to these places for immigration, Datang is also very interested in another place, that is, places with important strategic positions such as traffic throats.

For example, in Ceuta, the Suez Canal area and the Danish Islands, in order to obtain the Suez Canal area, the Tang Empire directly launched a military offensive.

In order to obtain the Danish Islands, the entire Kingdom of Denmark was relocated to Northwest Africa.

For Datang, other ordinary places, especially places with a large number of indigenous people, are generally reluctant to want.

However, the strategic location is different, if there are indigenous people, they will be relocated.

The Black Sea Strait belongs to such a place with an important strategic position!

After all, the Black Sea Strait is the only entry and exit channel for the Mediterranean Sea and the Black Sea region. In addition, the Western expedition army of the Tang Empire has already killed the Don River Basin and entered the Ukraine Plain. It has completely entered the Black Sea. The Tang Empire is even more important.

Although Datang's ships can enter and exit the Black Sea Strait unhindered at present, this is someone else's place after all, and there is no guarantee that there will be no problems in the future.

Once there is a problem, it is equivalent to the throat being restrained.

In order to avoid future troubles and take precautions, it is understandable that the Datang Empire wants to control the Black Sea Strait.

In this regard, the Ottoman Kingdom is firmly opposed!

But are their objections useful?

Actually it is useless!

The Tang people knew this, and so did the people in their Ottoman kingdom.

The focus of the dispute between the two sides is not whether Datang can control this area. In fact, this point does not need to be discussed at all. Basically, it has been tacitly agreed that Datang will control the strait.

The point of contention between the two sides now is the way Datang controls the strait.

The Datang Empire proposed that the Ottoman Kingdom hand over all the 10 kilometers of the Strait and the 10-kilometer area on both sides of the strait to the Datang Empire, and they were not leased, but purchased.

Which naturally includes Istanbul...

The Ottoman Kingdom is unwilling. You, Tang Dynasty, want to station troops in the strait. This is not impossible, but don’t do it too much. Just build a military base for you in some places. Take all the places.

Especially when our capital is still within this range.

The differences between the two sides are relatively large, and this negotiation is naturally not easy!

In order to speed up the negotiations, the European fleet directly invited the Ottoman royal family to board the battleship to watch the live-fire exercise!

After watching the exercise, the Ottoman representative said in broken Chinese: "Ten kilometers across the strait can be sold to the empire, and the price and compensation are also based on your price, but..."

When he said this, he said with a very aggrieved look: "But Istanbul is our capital, we will never sell this place!"

Datang's ghostwriter is silent!

The representative of the Ottoman Kingdom gritted his teeth and continued: "We can give you part of the coastal area, but we will never move the capital!"

At this time, the representatives of Datang turned around and talked in a low voice: "The area where your capital is located may not be included in the ten-kilometer restricted area, but it must be disarmed, and you are not allowed to deploy any kind of weapons in this area. The armed forces can leave a limited number of people at most, and the police officers with weapons are limited to sticks, knives, and swords, and must not be equipped with hot weapons of any nature, as well as bows, spears, and other cold weapons beyond the limit!"

The representative of the Ottoman kingdom naturally disagreed: "Disarming? So how do we protect our capital? Defend the royal family?"

The representative of Datang said: "The security police with swords are enough to protect your royal family!"

"Besides, at that time, we will have military restricted areas in your capital and all places within ten kilometers outside the necessary passages. Believe me, no one in this world dares to attack your capital through these military restricted areas. Of course, we don't care about the entry and exit passages, but you will not be able to guard even an entry and exit passage that is no more than tens of meters wide!"

"All military restricted areas outside the capital area?" After hearing this, the representative of the Ottoman Kingdom became more alert.

what does that mean?

This seems to mean that the Datang Empire provides military support for their capital!

Once Datang sets up a military restricted area around it, leaving only one entry and exit channel to go to Istanbul, no army from that country in this world would dare to break through Datang's military restricted zone and come to Istanbul.

Of course, there is also a hidden danger, that is, the whole of Istanbul is surrounded by the Tang Dynasty territory, leaving only a small passage and port to enter and exit. Once they have a bad relationship with the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty will wipe the entire Istanbul in minutes. draw.

But the people from the Tang Dynasty didn't care: "Naturally, since it is the territory sold to our empire, other people can't get involved!"

The representative of the Ottoman Kingdom said: "This is a big matter. I will report to the king of our country before making a decision!"

The representatives of Datang did not interfere, and they discussed it as they liked. Anyway, the matter of Datang taking over 10 kilometers on both sides of the strait is already a certainty. Strategic security, decided to garrison troops in the strait and set up military restricted areas.

In the follow-up, we also exchanged opinions with the cabinet~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and finally formed a consensus, but the cabinet said: "You military are willing to toss, just toss, but don't expect our cabinet to pay!"

The two sides of the army and navy later sat together and discussed it. At that time, the discussion was about the cost of sending troops to garrison. At that time, the army and navy were disgusted.

According to the plan of the army and navy, even if it is a casual fight, it will cost several million Tang Yuan. If the war lasts a little longer, tens of millions are possible. If nothing else, just dispatch the fleet. Burned coal and fired artillery shells are very expensive.

The most important thing is not the issue of more money and less money, but that both the army and the navy want each other to get the better of each other!

The Navy seriously took out a bill for the cost of covering the Army's landing operations, and bluntly said that the Army needed to pay for it!

However, the cost of burning coal and artillery shells alone cost millions of Tang yuan. After being seen by the army people, they scolded: You navy natives are poor and crazy, all the money has fallen into the Pacific Ocean Trench.
