"My country is full of sympathy for what happened to your country."

In Paris, the new French Prime Minister Charles de Freycinet was talking to Ambassador Haussmann about France's attitude in his office.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, thank you for France's concern for our country. I don't know if our country has requested your country's help. Is there any result?"

The Haussmann ambassador to Paris was eager to know the attitude of France. In the face of the ambassador's question, Freycinet smiled. "Our country has always attached great importance to the friendly relationship between the two countries, so if your country wants to issue bonds, you can get the support of the BNP Paribas Group. In addition, our country has a batch of retired weapons and equipment, which can also be sold to you, but the price is different. …”

Speaking of this, how could Ambassador Osman still not understand, it would be good to be able to buy weapons and ammunition at this time, and the price should not be too much.

"I understand, please rest assured that Ottoman will pay a suitable price for this batch of weapons."

Since the Ottomans are on the road like this, Freycinet doesn't mind selling some other weapons to them. "As for our country's latest torpedo boat, it is a powerful tool to protect the coast from the enemy's harassment. I wonder if your country is interested?"

"The goodwill of your country can be felt by every Ottoman, but this matter needs to be decided by Istanbul, so please don't take offense to the Prime Minister."

In the face of the good intentions of the French Prime Minister, Ambassador Osman couldn't make up his mind, because he couldn't make the decision, so he could only report it first. Of course, he is still very satisfied with the attitude of France, which is really a traditional good ally.

"It's okay, I look forward to good news from you."

After sending the Ottomans away, Freycinet smiled. This time Osman asked for help, but gave him a chance. Every Frenchman remembers what happened to France in the Far East a few years ago.

One more thing to say here, after the Sino-French war, in order to save some face for themselves, both the French army in the Far East and the officials in Paris claimed that it was the help of the Italians that caused France to lose in the Far East. This has caused Italy's senses in the hearts of the French people to plummet, and it has also affected the economic and trade relations between the two countries.

Of course, it is understandable for the French to say this. After all, being beaten up by a yellow-skinned race that is looked down upon, or being slapped by Italy, who is also a foreign power, is more acceptable, so don’t think about it.

And now that Feng Shui turns around, when it comes to France, if you don't help Ottoman ruthlessly, you'll be sorry for the chance God gave.

If it weren't for the fact that the Mediterranean Sea is too small and too close to European countries to deal with, it would be possible for the French Navy to form an Ottoman ocean-going fleet.

But the navy can't move, the army can still. Let the Ottomans purchase a large number of arms first. If the effect is not bad, then it is impossible to say that the French Army Advisory Group can be formed.

The attitude of the French made the Ottoman Empire very satisfied.

But in other countries, it's hard to say.

"Sorry, our country cannot directly help your country in this matter. Although the relationship between you and our country is very good, the agreement between our country and your country is only for Russia and does not involve other countries."

At 10 Downing Street, Prime Minister Cecil, who is also foreign secretary, spoke with regret to the Ottoman ambassador in London about the UK's decision.

Facing the words of Prime Minister Cecil, the Ottoman ambassador was not willing to give up like this. "Your Excellency Prime Minister, Italy's actions seriously threaten the security of the Eastern Mediterranean. As the arbiter of the region, does the British government just watch them recklessly destroy the order in the region?"

Although Ambassador Osman held the British very high, Prime Minister Cecil, who is a person, can hardly be stimulated by this sentence.

"I'm sorry that our country can't help your country. But if your country wants to issue debt, the gentlemen of London are willing to make a small contribution."

The British refused to let the ambassador leave in disappointment.

"Sorry, our country cannot sell your country's weapons at this time, because it will make Germany fall into moral accusations. In addition, your country wants to borrow from our country. I am sorry that it is also based on the previous reason, and our country cannot support your country. "

In the Prime Minister's Office in Berlin, although Bismarck was a little physically and mentally exhausted, when facing the Ottoman ambassador in Berlin, the iron-blooded prime minister still fulfilled the obligations of a secret alliance.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, why did you reject our country's request? You must know that our country has always respected your country very much. I hope that your country can consider it carefully considering the relationship between our two countries."

The Ottoman ambassador, who was completely unaware of the secret alliance of the three countries, still tried to change Germany's attitude.

Facing the attempts of the Ottoman ambassador to Berlin, Bismarck refused him without hesitation. "I'm sorry, my country has already considered it carefully. The conflict between your country and Italy is also needed. It can be resolved by peaceful means, which can avoid losses to the people in the region."

If France is satisfied and Britain and Germany are disappointed, then Ottoman's diplomatic behavior in Austria-Hungary is really desperate.

"My country is very concerned about the dispute between your country and Italy~www.NovelMTL.com~, and considering the possibility of war between your two countries, my country hopes that your country can transfer the Bosnia and Herzegovina area to our country, which can avoid this area. People are threatened by war. Of course, our country is not trying to threaten your country, but our country is still very sincere and willing to spend two million pounds to buy the area."

The words of Count Gustav Karnoki, Austrian-Hungarian Foreign Minister and Chairman of the Council of Ministers, sent a chill to the heart of the Ottoman ambassador to Vienna. What is the difference between Austria-Hungary and looting. Although Bosnia and Herzegovina is currently hosted by Austria-Hungary, but two million pounds wants Ottoman to abandon Bosnia and Herzegovina in terms of law and law, which makes him the ambassador in Vienna very embarrassed.

"Sorry, I can't answer this at all, because it's beyond my purview."

It was clear that the ambassador did not want to talk about Bosnia and Herzegovina with Austria-Hungary. It's just that this issue is not something he doesn't want to talk about, I saw Count Carnocki said slowly. "Your Excellency the ambassador can report to your country first, but our country is limited in patience. I hope your country will give a clear answer within half a month. Otherwise, I am afraid that there will be eager officers and will expel all your country's officials in the region. out of the country."

This was already a blatant threat, and in the face of such a threat, the Ottoman ambassador to Vienna jumped out like a frightened rabbit.

And the ambassador to Vienna, the first time he returned to the embassy, ​​immediately sent back the news that Austria-Hungary wanted Bosnia and Herzegovina. What to do next, we can only wait for Istanbul's decision.

While Ottoman was engaged in diplomatic efforts, Italy was not idle, but unlike Osman, the target chosen by Italy was somewhat unexpected.
