Mediterranean Hegemony Road

After receiving the call for help, Prince Constantine didn't even see it, and he was left aside. He thought about it and said, "Take a regiment from our newly edited militia division. In the past, we will reinforce the eighteenth division! Tell Major Andrew, this It was his last batch of reinforcements, and he had to defend the line of defense, if he could n’t, he would n’t have to return! ”

After speaking, Prince Constantine got up directly and went to the battlefield hospital. He knew that with the strength in his current hands, it was very difficult to keep the line of defense!

In order to increase his strength, he has even ordered the locals to be arrested. The newly formed militias reserve team is composed of militias captured in Thessaly!

In theory, he added another division's strength; in fact, the newly formed militia division did not even have a gun in its hand, and its combat effectiveness was better than nothing!

到 Anyway, when you get to the front, there will be! The war is still going on. Someone is dead. They will have guns when others die!

This is how the Russian army in the late World War I did! Now it has been brought out by the Greeks in advance!

Now Prince Constantine has the idea of ​​the battlefield hospital again. From the attack on Trikala city, the wounded of the battlefield hospital has now exceeded 20,000!

In addition to the severely wounded who have completely lost their combat effectiveness, there are still at least seven or eight thousand lightly wounded, and they can still barely enter the battlefield! Even if the combat effectiveness is to be reduced, these "veterans" are stronger than the newly edited militia division!

王子 Prince Constantine has already given orders, but unfortunately few people are willing to enter the battlefield again!

I walked close to the battlefield hospital, and a stench rushed towards me. Prince Constantine, who had never suffered from this crime, still put up with nausea and moved on!

Not far away, there were rows of stretchers with wounded people on them. These were just off the front line! The wailing of the wounded from time to time is creepy!

A few medics were busy working with the first aid kit. That is to do some first aid work, bandage the wound again!

Drugs? Sorry, in the 19th century, this was a very luxurious item! Except for a few officers, ordinary soldiers are not eligible!

And many seriously injured people, even if they can be rescued, are also a waste, which is even less worth the Greek government to spend this large price!

Even with medicines, the chances of a severely injured person living are very low! There were no antibiotics in this era. The inventor of penicillin is still a little boy!

Whether the wound becomes inflamed depends on luck! Once the wound is purulent, if it is on the limbs, it will be amputated!

If it is other parts, look forward to God's blessing! The chance of a miracle will not exceed one percent!

Obviously, the Greek hospital's battlefield hospital is unable to accept so many wounded! Even with simple treatment, it can't be done!

Seeing this, Prince Constantine understands why the minor wounded refused to enter the battlefield again! After experiencing such an environment, it is estimated that many mentalities will collapse!

Prince Constantine is thinking about how to bring these people to the front line again. Coercive measures are useless. In order to resist re-entry, many wounded patients who have been cured have broken again!

Uh ...

At the command line of the eighteenth division of the front line, Major General Andrew looked at the reinforcements that Prince Constantine had sent him, and they were getting furious!

From a twelve or three year old boy to a seventy or eighty old man, there is everything!

Don't talk about combat effectiveness, Andrew doubts that many of them can still resist the gun!

At this moment, he even wondered if he had offended Prince Constantine somewhere, and now he is wearing small shoes!

Soon, he dispelled this idea! At this time, everyone is a grasshopper on a rope.

Anyway, having a reinforcement is better than no one. No matter how arrogant, as long as you can pull the trigger, it is always a bit useful!

The prerequisite is that he must first teach this group of black people to use weapons!

After suffocating, Major General Andrew roared loudly: "Guard, inform the regiments to come to the division to lead people, and tell them that the reinforcements have arrived !!"

Ok! Immediately, he was not only depressed, it is estimated that the people below will be even more uncomfortable! And there is no room for choice, there are so many reinforcements, love it or not!

Anyway, all the troops are lacking! Since Prince Constantine transferred a division on the front line, everyone's defense line has become longer, and the corresponding strength has also become thinner!

Uh ...

Since the Ottomans launched a comprehensive counterattack, Prince Constantine sent a telegram to the Greek government with a wording request for help!

The content is very short, just one meaning: if there is no reinforcements, everyone will receive the news of his defeat in three days!

At this moment, George I couldn't sit still! Unlike the previous letters of help, this time is really dangerous. No commander will send such a telegram until the moment of life and death!

"How many troops are there in the country?" George I eagerly asked

大 The Minister of War said with a bitter smile: "No more than 40,000 people, and most of them are old, weak, and sick! All combat-capable troops are now on the front line!"

George I thought for a while and said, "Stop! Send out my guards to form a 30,000-strong reinforcement, and immediately set off to reinforce Prince Constantine!"

The Minister of War said in a faceless tone: "But Her Majesty, it is too late for time!

These are the peasants who have just set up their troops, or the workers who have just come out of the factory, not to mention their combat effectiveness!

Now they are still distributed all over the country, I'm afraid everything is too late when they come! Now within three days, less than 10,000 troops can be provided to Prince Constantine's army! "

George I's face was more gloomy and terrible. At this moment he suddenly found the situation, and the crisis had reached such a point!

The puppet government has been suppressing not sending additional reinforcements to the front line, not because they do not want it, but because the country has never been able to get a decent army at all!

In other words, the Greek government has studed the moment it was sitting at the gaming table! If not exhausted, the Greek army would not have been able to easily break the Ottoman defense line!

This is also a common problem in all small countries-can not afford to lose! Once you fail, you will lose all your chips!

George I glanced coldly at the Minister of War and said, "I don't care how many reasons you have, but within three days, reinforcements must reach the front!

And also to defend Trikala, don't tell me, your military does not even have a plan for reinforcements!

Even if the reinforcements can't all arrive, how much can be reached! I just want to keep the line of defense. What a price to pay, I have to keep it! "

"Yes!" The Secretary of War replied with a bitter smile

——

After a moment of silence, seeing that the anger of George I was slightly extinguished, the Prime Minister suddenly sighed and said, "Now is not the time for accountability. The imperative is for Bulgaria and Mentenegrow (Montenegro) to join the war immediately Coming!

Otherwise, it is impossible to win this war by our own strength, even if it is a decent truce, we will not be able to fight it! "

George I can also be regarded as the Greek lord, but unfortunately, the Greek foundation is too thin now!

At the prompt of the Prime Minister, George I immediately noticed and asked, "Let's talk! What price do we have to pay in exchange for the Bulgarians to send troops immediately?"

Everyone's face changed drastically. From the beginning of the war to the present, it was not even ten days before Greece would be defeated!

The plan to rebuild Great Greece failed just after taking the first step!

Greece today is not comparable to future generations. Not only is the area less than half that of future generations, the population is only two million! Once defeated, the Greek army will not be able to recover for a long time in the future!

The Chancellor of the Treasury said, "It is too early for you to talk about post-war gains now!

The current situation on the battlefield is very unfavorable to us. I suggest that Bulgaria and Nette Negro be urged to participate in the war as soon as possible!

Judging from the situation on the battlefield, the strength of the Ottoman Empire is still there, and it is very difficult to end the war in the short term!

Without the intervention of the powers, can the alliance win the final victory, all a big question mark? "

The lid has been lifted, and the Balkan Alliance must win fast to win this war! Once the Ottoman Empire reacted, the war became a protracted war, and other countries are still not sure, but Greece can definitely not stand for two months!

The Minister of the Interior said with a bitter smile: "This is indeed a problem! But when we start this war, we must always gain something?

Not enough income, what do we explain to the people in the country!

If we now promise too many benefits in order to pull Bulgaria into the war, in the event that the Russians intervene later and the alliance wins this war, we will lose money! "

Everyone looked at each other with helpless expressions! Everyone has now lost confidence in the Balkan Union and pinned their hopes on Russian support!

The Foreign Minister dissatisfied and said, "It's time to do this, so why do you want to do so much! We have to consider so much, wouldn't others consider it?

你们 Did you think that the Bulgarian and Mentenegrow governments did not expect these? Insufficient benefits, what makes people take advantage of our fire? "

George I, eh? If it was a steadily winning war, they would join in without the promise of the Greeks!

But now that the odds are obviously not good, can we expect that a single covenant can constrain everything?

Neither did Ferdinand tear up the covenant. This war was initiated by the Greeks in advance. According to the covenant, Bulgaria's joining the war within three months is not a breach of contract!

As for the Bulgarian government's commitment, don't make fun of it. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs promised verbally that as long as the Bulgarian government died and did not recognize it, Greece would not even be able to criticize it in public opinion!

希腊 If Greece can last for three months, well, Bulgaria will definitely participate in the war! This means that the strength of the Ottoman Empire is limited, and everyone will not have any pressure to squeeze the persimmon!

希腊 If Greece can't support it for three months, it will be defeated. Bulgaria can do nothing at all. Anyway, they have not declared war on the Ottoman Empire, and the existence of the Russian Alliance, the Ottoman Empire dare not take them!

At this moment, George I knew he was pitted by Ferdinand! And it was still miserable, without substantial concessions, Bulgaria is expected to continue to watch the show!

But he didn't believe it, the Bulgarians didn't worry at all, they would really watch Greece defeat, and Bulgaria's life would not be better!

Well, he overestimated Ferdinand's discipline! As far away as Ferdinand in Bulgaria, you are watching the battle report with pleasure, drinking tea, and being happy!

I also commented a few times from time to time, a melon-eating crowd lively, did not worry about the Greeks at all!

The Greeks can fight until now, Ferdinand is satisfied! According to the initial estimates of the General Staff, Greece is fully guarded and can withstand up to 150,000 Ottoman troops; if it is an active attack, it will be defeated within ten days!

This is similar to the performance of the Greek Army in history. It lost a week after the war!

Now the performance of the Greek army has been very good. It has been able to fight against hundreds of thousands of Ottoman troops for so long, and at least 30,000 to 40,000 Ottoman Empire troops have been killed. It has surprised Ferdinand!

As for sending troops to help? no problem! Just wait a moment, after the main Greek defeat, it is time for Bulgaria to send troops!

He was a man, and countless lessons in history told Ferdinand that the distribution of benefits has never been based on contributions, and strength is the core factor that determines the distribution of benefits!

Isn't Bulgaria the biggest contributor to the Balkan war in parallel time and space? I thought I could get the biggest cake. What happened? Insufficient strength ~ www.wuxiahere.com ~ The former allies turned into enemies in the face of interests, and were besieged by a half body!

Now Ferdinand's plan is to calculate one by one, anyway, Bulgaria is acting according to the plan agreed in advance.

引发 It ​​is the responsibility of the Greeks to start the war in advance. If they cannot hold it for half a month, what confidence will they have to blame Bulgaria!

Of course, even half a month is useless! Even if Bulgaria joins the war, it is first to get Istanbul, followed by the Macedonian region, and it will not help the Greeks for a while.

Uh ...

Ferdinand put down the tea cup in his hand and asked, "Prime Minister, how is Mente Negro preparing? Is it possible for them to join the war in advance?"

Prime Minister Constantine smiled and said, "Mentenegro is frightened now! They are staring at us now, it seems that as long as we don't end, they will not participate in the war!"

Jeff Ferdinand's face changed, right! Nicholas I, who had participated in two wars against Turkey, knew absolutely the military strength of the Ottoman Empire! Even now that the Greeks have lost, they will not scare him!

"Don't despise them, Nicholas I is also a great generation! The strength Ottomans are now demonstrating will not scare him!

We can fool the Greeks, but we can't fool him! It seems that through the Pacer war, Nicholas I has already understood our strength, otherwise Mentenegrow has already directly withdrawn from the alliance and will not wait and see! "

Everyone's face changed greatly, and then they recovered. It's this time, even if their strength is exposed?

Can the Greeks be reconciled with the Ottoman Empire? Mentenegrow's body weight is like that, with a maximum of two divisions. Can it threaten Bulgaria?
