As the capital of the Ottoman Empire, Istanbul has always been known as the crossroads of Europe and Asia. Such excellent conditions have always attracted many peepers in the city. From the ancient tribal mountain people to the modern powers, they have all tried to control this city.
As for modern times, the city is under the control of the Ottoman Empire. Even though it is about to become a border city, the Ottomans are still reluctant to part with the unique and superior conditions here.
But now there is an undercurrent emerging in Istanbul. The reason is that the Ottoman people were outraged by the defeated treaty.
In the streets and alleys, people have been discussing the treaty to cede land and pay compensation.
"Do you know?"
"Know what?"
"The empire lost the war and I heard that it cut off most of the territory in Europe and Africa."
"How could this happen? How could the empire lose so much?"
"No one expected that we would lose money when we heard that there were still 200,000 imperial troops surrounded by enemies in Macedonia."
Words like this are being circulated everywhere in Istanbul. Thanks to the outstanding bureaucracy of the Ottomans, the contents of the peace talks were quickly spread. Such words are considered good, but the more they spread, the more outrageous they are, saying that even Istanbul wants to
There are things that cannot be saved.
Such content about the defeat that was spread everywhere was naturally spread to the military camp.
Zeitin Bunur Military Camp, located southwest of Istanbul, is the largest military camp in the capital. On weekdays, there are only more than 30,000 Ottoman troops stationed here. However, due to the outbreak of the war, in order to make the capital more defensive, nearly 50,000 troops are currently stationed in the military camp.
Thousands of officers and soldiers.
Naturally, the officers and soldiers in the military camp had also learned about the conditions for ceding territory and paying compensation after defeat.
Such humiliating defeat conditions made the young Ottoman officers extremely dissatisfied, and this dissatisfaction surged in the military camp.
On this day, a warehouse of the 29th Division Independent Engineer Battalion located in the northwest corner of the military camp was crowded with a large number of officers. These officers, who wore them at the rank of lieutenant or even at the school level, crowded in the warehouse and were listening to something on the stage.
A speech by a young man.
"Like-minded friends, if you are here, it means that you are someone who truly loves this country, and I am one of them. Are you willing to see the land ceding and compensation for the empire's defeat this time?"
"I don't want to!"
The deafening sound seemed to overturn the huge warehouse.
"Since everyone is unwilling, how can we accept the cause created by Suleiman the Magnificent? We are oppressed again and again by European bandits. Like-minded friends? We must not let the Ottoman Empire sink like this. We need to change,
Do we need to strengthen ourselves? We need to let the Europeans see? We are not sick men. We absolutely cannot accept such humiliating conditions and would rather shed the last drop of blood? We will never allow the loss of a piece of Ottoman territory."
"We will never allow a piece of territory to be lost, even if our blood is shed dry!"
The atmosphere at the scene reached a climax? Everyone was roaring? They wanted to vent their dissatisfaction.

The current situation in the Ottoman Empire is more serious than that in the Far East, and the national ideas coming from Europe have attracted many young people who are interested in changing the country.
