February 2, 26th year of the Republic of China (192 AD), Wuhan.

"Mr. Wen, Baryu fights..." Gu Xiaolu hurriedly ran into the office with a telegram.

"Oh, they finally started fighting. I thought they were going to drag it until next year..." Wen Desi received the telegram with some surprise. The telegram was sent by Chinese intelligence personnel in the Baryu area. It introduced the current situation and the current situation in various countries in detail.

Baryu is located at the border between Europe and Asia. It is the lower abdomen of Europe, choking the throat of the Black Sea and the Mediterranean. Its strategic position is very important. At the same time, the ethnic composition here is complex and the religion is diverse. Since ancient times, this place has been the powder barrel of Europe.

The war broke out at this plane later than the original time and space, but the temperature of the "Balyu powder keg" is already high enough, and it is only a matter of time before the explosion. The contradictions between Bar's countries have reached its peak, and the great powers fan the flames, so negotiations can no longer solve the problem, so they can only do one.

Barr's problem has a long history, and there are many ethnic groups on this peninsula. Since the Ottoman Empire defeated Barr's coalition forces in the 138 Kosovo Battle and occupied the entire Barr's peninsula with force, the Yugoslav nation has been ruled by the Ottoman Empire for a long time.

Since the 19th century, nationalists in the Baryu region have been launching armed uprisings in an attempt to get rid of the independence of the Ottoman Empire. In 183, Greece successfully made independence with the support of Britain, France and Russia, which greatly encouraged the various ethnic groups in Yugoslavia. As for Russia, Russia has always launched the Eighth Russian-Turkish War in order to seize the Mediterranean estuaries. The Ottoman Empire was defeated and seeking peace. The signing of the Treaty of San Stefano was granted the independence of Serbia and Montenegro, and Romania was merged by Wallachia and Moldova, and established a great Bulgaria, and Bosnia was "autonomous" (actually trusted by the Austro-Hungarian Empire).

With the support of Russia, Panslavism became the mainstream thought of Baryu's peninsula. Baryu's countries also actively expanded their military and carried out diplomatic work, seeking support from European powers, hoping to seize the territory of the Ottoman Empire in Baryu's peninsula. In 192, Serbia and Bulgaria formed an alliance; in June, Montenegro's old name Necoro, Greece also participated; the above four countries formed the Baryu's alliance.

On February 1, 192, Negoro (Montenegro) of the Gate first declared war on the Ottoman Empire. Bao, Sey, and Xi also issued an ultimatum to the Ottoman Empire on the 7B, demanding that the Ottoman army withdraw from Baryu and give autonomy to all ethnic groups. The Ottoman government of course rejected this request and began to mobilize the army. This constituted a direct statement of the Baryu alliance's declaration of war on Turkey. On February 9, Bulgaria, Serbia and Greece also launched attacks on the Ottomans one after another.

By the time of the report, the troops of both sides had already been pinched.

"Okay, I'll notify the relevant personnel immediately and hold a special meeting on Barr's affairs in the afternoon..." Wen Desi immediately ordered.

In the following hours, intelligence personnel and diplomats from all parties also sent the relevant information back, and the Strategic Intelligence Analysis Bureau summarized and summarized it, and then produced it into information and handed it over to Wen Desi.

The participants arrived after lunch. Mr. Wen asked them to read the relevant information first and then started the meeting.

Wen Desi said: "You have already understood the basic situation now, let's talk about it now. How do we intervene in the Baryu War? How do we intervene? Which side should we stand on..."

In fact, before the war between Baryu, the great powers had already intervened. Tsarist Russia's support for Baryu's alliance was completely open, while the German and Austrian allies supported the Ottomans, so we supported the enemy's opposition. Although Britain and France did not make clear statements, they were obviously far behind. In the original time and space, this matter must not be as big as China. However, after China in its original plane was recognized as a great power, and naturally had the qualifications to get into it.

Chief of Staff Xin Jie said: "I think there are more benefits to helping the Ottoman. This time, the Ottoman was basically defeated, but our Asia-Europe Railway still needs their cooperation, so we have to support even if they lose."

Premier Zhang Lizheng also agreed: "That's right, just because they are as deep as Russia's hatred, they should support Türkiye."

In fact, the top leaders of the Party that support Türkiye's policies have long been decided. Now the big men on both sides of the military and political circles speak out, just to give the following a clear attitude.

Baryu Peninsula is located at the confluence of Europe, Asia and Africa. It controls not only the gateway to the Mediterranean Sea and the Black Sea, but also the route to the Indian Ocean by the war map. It has a very important strategic position and has rich natural resources.

The best situation for such a place is of course to be controlled by oneself, but at this time China's national strength is still limited and its strength cannot be projected there. So, when it is currently unable to control it, it will be impossible for others to control it. So this time Wen Desi planned to be a messing stick and prevent Niu Niu from being beautiful in the past.

"The humanitarian aid materials we stored in the Middle East before can be given to Türkiye first, and a batch of them must be given to them..." Wen Desi said.

At this time, the Ottoman Empire was no longer the awesome Ottoman Empire hundreds of years ago. Since the 19th century, this country has been declining, getting worse and worse, and it has become extremely weak now. His opponent, Baru, has surpassed the Ottoman army in terms of number of troops and weapons quality, especially in artillery quality and military combat training. What's more, Baru's alliance has strong support from the Allies. Although Germany and Austria supported them, their strength was quite limited because of William II's hesitation.

In this case, the Ottomans will never have the possibility of winning unless they cheat. Wen Desi has no way to let them win at this time. After all, it is too far away and the Asia-Europe Railway is not open to traffic. Although the Ottomans cannot win, they can lose more than they can.

"How is the Ram?" Wen Desi asked.

Wang Qi quickly replied: "Under our activities, the appointment of sending him to Bulgaria as a military officer has been cancelled. He has now successfully gone to Thessalonika and served as the commander of a main infantry regiment, and his troops have also received strong support from us..."

"Very good. Turkey will definitely fail this time, but it cannot make the Baryu win too easily. The most important thing is to let the rams and others gain reputation. In any case, they are also our satellite party, hahahaha..." Wendesi laughed.

Wen Desi has never had a good impression of the many countries on the Baryu Peninsula, because this peninsula is rich in strange things, one by one. Although they are under the banner of "national liberation" this time, they are actually biting dogs. In the original time and space, after they joined forces to fly the native chicken cart, they immediately divided the spoils and squeezed each other again.

The most dying country in Europe is undoubtedly "Pingdu Town Lu Dabobo", and the runner-up is on the Baryu Peninsula until the tenth place. The current runner-up is undoubtedly Serbia. This country is not big but has ambitions. They are determined to establish a "Great Serbia". This "Great Serbia" is mostly half of the Baryu Peninsula, including Bosnia and Herzegovina, Negoro, Old Serbia, Macedonia, Croatia, Slovenia and Srem, Vojvodina and Dalmatia. This time, Serbia is preparing to divide Albania, occupy Thessalonika, and obtain two sea outlets, the Aegean and Adriatic Seas.

Several other countries also have great ideas. Greece's dream restored the Greek Empire, which spanned Europe and Asia. Under the guidance of this "Great Greek idea", it not only wanted to regain Crete, separated by water from the Ottoman Empire, but also prepared to expand in the west and north directions, eating up large areas of land in southern Macedonia and Albania.

Bulgaria attempted to realize the ideal of "Saint Stefano Great Bulgaria", occupying Macedonia and Thrace regions, as well as ports such as Thessalonika and Kavala, and entering the Aegean Sea.

Negoro (Monten Mountain) of the gate was not willing to fall behind, and they also had their own ideas. Although this little shit country was not easy to find on the map, this country with a big nose was a standard strongman. At its peak, the Ottoman Empire conquered the entire Baryu Peninsula and even faced Vienna. However, it was defeated by the little shit country, Montenegro, and kneeled once and fled to the end of the street. In the end, Montenegro became the only land that Baryu had not been conquered by the Ottoman. Of course, they were all in a nest and were good at defending their homes with the help of their home advantage, but if they wanted to pull it out, forget it. But now since there is such a good opportunity, it also wants to expand its territory, divide Novi Barca, occupy northern Albania, and border Serbia.

So Mr. Wen plans to help them bleed and make them honest this time.

Thessalonika.

Thessalonika was an ancient city, once the capital of the ancient Macedonian Kingdom. During the Roman period, it developed into an important trade intersection, with a Roman road connecting Byzantine (Constantinople) and Dirashi (now Duras, Albania) for trade between Europe and Asia. Byzantine Empire, its importance was second only to the capital Constantinople and was one of the two most important commercial centers of Byzantine.

After being ruled by the Ottoman Empire, Thessalonika became a provincial capital of the empire and one of the most important trade and commercial cities of the Ottomans. The railway was opened here in 186, and modern port facilities were built from 183 to 1904. Now it is one of the most important cities of the Ottomans and the most coveted target of the Baryu League.
