Time flies. On April 28, 1875, Franz was crowned King of Jerusalem in amid cheers, and history opened a new page.

As soon as the coronation ceremony was completed, Franz received bad news that his uncle Ferdinand I was critically ill.

God did not favor him, and even in the holy land, he could not suppress the disease.

Ferdinand I's illness has been around for a long time, and it is a miracle to be able to persevere until now. If you want to "cure", let alone now, even a hundred years later, the medical community will be powerless.

After visiting his unconscious uncle, Franz sighed. Birth, old age, sickness and death are the most helpless. The original uncle of time and space also passed away this year, and the butterfly effect could not change the ending.

Who can be ruthless without plants? Ferdinand has no son in his life and has treated Franz as his own son since he was a child, which can even be called spoiled.

Although Ferdinand I was confused from time to time, this did not harm the relationship between the two. Back then, Franz also used his uncle's banner to fool people, and forging edicts was even more common.

Now that I think about it carefully, I have not been exposed so many times, I am afraid my uncle has taken the initiative to take a lot of blame for him.

...

The emperor was destined to be lonely. Just when Franz was feeling, a message interrupted his sentimentality.

"Is the message confirmed?"

It's not that Franz is rare and strange, but the content is too surprising, and it has already out of Franz's imagination.

Felix replied affirmatively: "It has been confirmed. The Ottoman Empire was indeed guiding refugees to the Persian border, and the external explanation was for the purpose of dispersed resettlement.

By the way, the Ottoman Empire was still recruiting troops. Among the refugees, all young and strong aged 16 to 50 years old were recruited, which was said to be to suppress the rebellion.

The London Embassy also confirmed that the British recently provided a loan to the Ottoman Empire and specified that it must be used to suppress the rebellion.

The rebels of the Ottoman Empire were all mobs and were scattered to fight on their own, so they were no match for the government forces at all.

The Ottoman Empire has increased its conscription efforts, probably because it wants to fight against Persia and divert domestic conflicts."

When the Ottoman Empire attacked Persia, Franz shook his head. He always felt unreliable. He was beaten up just now and immediately jumped out to make trouble. Are you tired of living?

Don’t look at how powerful the Ottoman Empire is than Persia, but it can’t stand their enemies. Whether it is Austria or Russia, as long as they pull their backs, all their efforts will be wasted.

What should I do if I don’t win the war? Instead of taking the risk of fighting, it’s better to fight a civil war at home. When the population is almost consumed, domestic conflicts will be resolved.

"This conclusion may not be correct. Now the top priority of the Ottoman Empire is the refugee crisis and suppression of rebellion. What are the benefits of attacking Persia for them?

Unless Al Shabaab is a bunch of fools, you should know that the current Ottoman Empire cannot withstand war, and even if it wins Persia, the refugee crisis will still not be resolved."

There is no problem using war to divert contradictions. The Ottoman Empire and Persia also had deep hatreds, and there was no pressure to attack Persia.

The problem is that Persia is not a wealthy person. It is almost impossible to get enough food to survive the crisis from Persia.

Foreign Minister Wesenberg: "Your Majesty, there may be British people behind this. We extend our power to the Middle East, and the British will definitely take action.

From the standpoint of the London government, to ensure that India is foolproof, it is best to take Persia into its hands and divide its spheres of influence with us in the Mesopotamia.

However, more than a decade ago, the British invasion of Persia ended in failure, and the London government should still be in a state of fear. They are likely to attract attention from the Ottomans and create opportunities for another invasion of Persia.

The Ottoman Empire’s problems are small, and they are not big. They are nothing more than money and food. If Britain is willing to spend money, it is still able to survive the crisis for them.”

The money and food required by the Ottoman Empire was an astronomical figure, but this "astronomical figure" was also relatively speaking.

It is "astronomical" for ordinary countries, but for the British, it is just a huge sum of money, and it is squeezed out.

The five million tons of food shortage sounds amazing. But these foods are not needed at one time, but are food shortages in the next one or two years.

If you purchase all the cheapest potato flour, you will actually only have tens of millions of Syrians. The Ottomans are not qualified to be picky in food, so it would be good to eat if you have it.

The only problem is that the repayment ability of the Ottoman Empire is worrying, and the risk of lending money to such a country that is in danger is too high.

"Refugees", "Borders"...

Franz flashed with inspiration and understood instantly.

“Send people to stare at the number of refugees scattered on the border by the Ottomans, and I suspect that Al-Shabaab wants refugees to enter Persia and eat.

The number of refugees in the Ottoman Empire was too large and it had already exceeded the limit of this country's tolerance. It was impossible to rescue them all.

Anyone who ruled must make a choice. If nothing unexpected happens, the Ottoman Empire will soon expel the ethnic minorities in the country.

For safety reasons, the defenders on the border were ordered to strengthen their vigilance and prohibit any illegal immigrants from entering. Especially in the Dardanelles, do not let anyone smuggle them."

In Franz's view, the Ottomans were a dangerous move, and they were completely put to death. Once there was a slight omission in the plan, the country would explode immediately.

Even if Franz is replaced, he will choose to gamble. There is still a glimmer of hope when he gambles. If he doesn’t gamble, he will be waiting to die.

The government has no money and is unable to help so many refugees. This is a real problem and will not be diverted by personal will.

At this time, you can't listen to the words and talk nonsense, and it will be useless to blow the ceiling and not be able to make food. It is easy to borrow foreign debt, but capitalists are not stupid, and it is impossible to use money to waste it.

It is cruel to let refugees go abroad to make a living, but at least it is a hope for life. At least some lucky people can survive, which is better than those who stay and wait for death.

Perhaps by then, refugees will not only impact Persia, but also the Russian Empire and Austria.

However, Franz is not worried. The area bordering Austria and the Ottoman Empire is either a vast sea or a vast desert. A small number of oasis are also agricultural fallow areas, and hundreds of miles of deserted and deserted are normal operations.

...

Ankara, after a political struggle, the new Sultan Abdul Hamid II was born.

As time goes by, the refugee crisis continues to climax. Although Midhart just rejected the British insidious proposal, he was very honest in his actions.

I don’t know whether it was intentional or unintentional, a large number of refugees were diverted to the border area in groups. How can light hit Persia enough?

Persia is also an agricultural country with limited productivity and cannot afford to support so many refugees. Midhardt, who has a bottom line, still wants to make more people survive.

Therefore, the other two neighbors were also the destination for famine this time. Midhart also specially arranged people to get involved in the refugee army and prepared to lead the famine movement.

In order to avoid international conflicts, this operation is a nominal escape movement by the people, and has nothing to do with the Ottoman government.

Abdul Hamid II asked with concern: "Are you ready, Prime Minister?"

Only when I sat in this position did I realize that the difficulty of Sultan was. Abdul Hamid II did not want to be kicked off the stage in shame and died in a bad life.

Now he must rely on Al Shabaab to resolve the refugee crisis at home. In contrast, the ongoing civil war is not that important.

The restriction of the national uprising army was the word "national". This innate condition restricted the development and growth of the uprising army.

The number of ethnic minorities is limited, and the ethnic rebel army only operates in their own ethnic areas. If they change places, they have no mass base, and it is difficult to recruit soldiers.

In this context, the refugee crisis is particularly dazzling. The Ottoman Empire has serious ethnic conflicts. If we want everyone to unite, we can only survive.

Refugees just broke this restriction. Once the government stopped remissions, rebellion was almost an inevitable result in order to survive. Millions of people rebelled together, and even **** could not save the Ottoman Empire.

Midha nodded in a characteristic way: "There has been almost done. If the plan goes smoothly, more than two million people are expected to leave and go to Persia, Russia and Austria to make a living. At that time, the domestic food crisis will be solved."
