Chapter 1406

”This is really tragic news, isn't it? The Italians are like a knife on our back. If they suddenly turn back, our situation can be described as terribly bad.” Baldu hit one. Said with a chill.

”But according to our reports, the Allies don't seem to want to accept Italy's terms with a good hand. This is an opportunity for us. So it's not too much to worry, let's just wait and see what happens.” Herbert calmly Said.

And at this time, in the Royal Palace in Rome, King Vittorio Emanuele III of Italy, Prime Minister Giovanni Ciolitti of the Kingdom of Italy, Duke Abuzilu, Commander of the Italian Navy, and Chief of Staff Luigi of Italy General Cadorna is having a meeting to determine the fate of all Italy.

”The German Eastern Front Army, under the command of Prince Ruprecht, Crown Prince of Bavaria, has completely annihilated the Russian troops in the Russian Polish and Riga regions. If they continue north, they will directly approach the Russian capital. And if they go east, Belarus and Ukraine can be taken lightly. The situation in Russia is already very bad. Now Britain and France are eager to open the Dardanelles to provide blood transfusions for the Russians. They have made great efforts. There are more than four ships going to and from the Mediterranean every day. Count. Hundreds of thousands of troops are deployed in the Balkans. It is estimated that there will be an attack on the Turkish capital Constantinople soon.” General Luigi Cardona introduced the situation of the two warring parties in front of a huge sand table.

”In other words, there are still big changes in this war? When the German military is concentrated on the Baltic Sea coast, if Britain and France can seize the time and kill the Turkish capital, then it will not only save Russia, but also cut off an important Allied power. Arm? If I remember correctly, more than 60% of the fuel used by the Germans is transported from the Mesopotamia of Turkey?” Prime Minister Giovanni asked.

”That's it. Now we have reached the point of this war. The Western Front is a stagnant water. For the time being, neither side can do anything to the other side. The Russians on the Eastern Front are on the verge of collapse, not only military but also economically. And Turkey, the weakest link of the Allied Powers, will also face a blow from Britain and France to do their best!” General Luigi said.

”So what is our position in this war?” said Emmanuel III of Italy. ”At this critical moment, don't we take some action?”

”Our ambassador to Germany has implicitly proposed to Germany that if the Austro-Hungarian Empire can allocate Trentino and other places to Italy, then we will consider siding with the Allies. After all, there are 1.5 million Italians. We should let these compatriots return to the embrace of the motherland. And Libya should also be our reward for helping the Ottoman Empire, but the attitude of the Kaiser is unclear. They did not directly reply to us.”

”At the same time, the French said that if we join the Allied Powers and win, then we can get the entire Trento and Grizia region, including Trieste, Austria. The Romania region does not include the Istria region of Rijeka, parts of Traniska and Dalmatia, the control of the port of Wallona, ​​Antalya in Turkey, and some German African colonies.”

”The French are really generous. It's a pity that this is not their place to deliver, but is based on the victory of the war.” Emmanuel III sneered.
