It is true that Mustafa has never left the military camp, but that does not mean that he has no contact with the outside world.
As mentioned earlier, the situation on the Garibaldi Peninsula is very complicated. There are conflicts between the Balkan peoples, conflicts between the old systems of the Ottoman Empire, conflicts between outsiders and local indigenous people, and even conflicts within the League of Nations troops.
There have been frequent outbreaks, and now the Russians have been added to the mix, making the situation very precarious.
At the headquarters of the League of Nations troops in the center of Constantinople, Colonel Mustafa has been in a bad mood these past two days. He was grounded by Major General Tomlinson in the name of protection, and Colonel Mustafa was prohibited from leaving the headquarters. Colonel Mustafa and the outside world
Contact is therefore greatly restricted.
"Mr. Unai and Mr. Murdu hope that you can act as soon as possible. Time is running out. Lord Cyprus may decide on the candidate within 24 hours. Our biggest opponent is not Pasha or Prince Said, but Cyprus and Cyprus."
Barry Amis, the aide-de-camp of Colonel Mustafa of Anatolia with whom Lord is close, and a member of the United Progressive Party with Colonel Mustafa, is Colonel Mustafa's only channel of contact with the outside world.
"Anatolia is a shameful traitor. He helped foreigners shamelessly plunder the wealth that should belong to the Ottomans. If I have the chance, I will hang him." Mustafa hates traitors deeply, although in a secular sense
He was also a traitor to the Ottomans.
Not all Ottomans welcomed the arrival of League of Nations troops, although they brought long-lost peace and prosperity to the Garibaldi Peninsula.
For ordinary Ottomans, life now is hard-won. At least in the Garibaldi Peninsula under the rule of the League of Nations forces, basic equality has been achieved between people. The economic oppression endured by civilians has been greatly reduced, and the social economy has been appropriately developed.
, education, medical care and other people's livelihood have also been greatly improved, which is an experience that most Ottomans have never had before.
For members of the upper class during the Ottoman Empire, the Garibaldi Peninsula is terrible now. They have lost all their privileges and have to demand themselves according to the moral standards of normal people. This is natural for ordinary people.
It was extremely disappointing for them.
Colonel Mustafa's United Progressive Party was founded in 1894. Its original slogan was to oppose feudal rule, but later gradually transformed into national independence, representing the interests of the bourgeoisie and liberal landowners of the former Ottoman Empire.
"Now is not the time to discuss this issue. The most important thing for us at the moment is to get the support of Lord Cyprus." Barry Amis calmly said that the current situation is very unfavorable to Colonel Mustafa, and Anatolia has the upper hand.
Anatolia is essentially the southern African capital represented by Arthur, the representative of interests in Asia Minor and the Garibaldi Peninsula.
Through Anatolia, Southern African capital essentially controls the economic lifeline of Asia Minor and the Garibaldi Peninsula, and Anatolia’s interests are therefore deeply bound to Southern African capital.
It is precisely for this reason that Anatolia has serious conflicts of interest with most members of the United Progressive Party, which is also one of the reasons why Arthur prefers Anatolia.
By choosing a man who is not accepted by the majority of the Ottomans as future president, Anatolia will have to rely even more on southern Africa in order to maintain its rule.
"Unless we hand over the Asia Minor Peninsula and the Garibaldi Peninsula, we will not be able to get the support of southern Africans." Colonel Mustafa was resentful. What he wanted was an independent country, not an independent country.
A vassal of the country.
"Can you please keep your voice down? There are Southern Africans everywhere here." Barry Amis has a big head. This is true, but is it really okay to say it so bluntly?
Although the League of Nations forces are nominally composed of multiple countries, in fact they have been based on the southern African army since its establishment.
In the early League of Nations troops, European countries, especially France, still had considerable influence. The first commander-in-chief of the League of Nations troops was a Frenchman.
After the outbreak of the World War, the French government withdrew all French troops from the League of Nations forces. All troops sent by Japan and Italy withdrew before the outbreak of the World War. So far, the League of Nations troops were all composed of southern African troops. Only one force was recruited last year.
A force composed of local Ottomans, Colonel Mustafa's rise to prominence also benefited from the formation of this army.
The total number of this force is not large, less than 3,000, and it is currently deployed in the western Black Sea city of Devnia.
"What did the general say?" Mustafa suppressed his anger. Even if he hated southern Africans, he still had to rely on the support of southern Africans to achieve his wish.
This is the tragedy of a small country with few people. The Ottoman Empire was once a powerful country, but now it has to be cautious no matter what it does.
Major General Tomlinson's support for Mustafa is not unconditional. One of the costs is that if Mustafa comes to power, he will continue to support the League of Nations forces' control of the Black Sea outlet.
This request is a bit excessive. Among the legacies left by the Ottoman Empire, the most valuable is the Black Sea outlet. Although the Asia Minor Peninsula and the Garibaldi Peninsula are large in area, they are not very rich in resources. The most elite plain areas are occupied by the League of Nations troops.
If it cannot take over the Black Sea outlet, the interests of the new government will not be protected.
"The general is working hard, but the person who makes the decision now is Lord Cyprus, so" Barry Amis felt heavy. The general of the League of Nations force was still light compared to Arthur.
Major General Tomlinson did not deliberately oppose Arthur, but must be responsible for the members of the League of Nations and the 200,000 family members.
It has been more than twenty years since the League of Nations took over the Garibaldi Peninsula after the fall of the Ottoman Empire.
Many family members who were born in the Garibaldi Peninsula have now grown up. In their concept, the Garibaldi Peninsula is their hometown, and southern Africa is a distant and colorful dream that is just out of reach.
Including Major General Tomlinson himself, his children were also born and educated in Constantinople, so it is normal for Major General Tomlinson to have selfish motives.
Major General Tomlinson hoped that the Garibaldi Peninsula would always remain under League control if circumstances permitted.
"What's the situation on Omir's side?" Mustafa also had backup. Omir was the commander of the Ottoman force.
He is not the supreme commander. The supreme commander must be a southern African. Ermil is only the commander of a battalion, and only about 600 troops can be mobilized.
"Major Omer went to Nyasaland Army Academy for further studies. This afternoon's plane should have flown to Egypt by now." Barry Amis smiled bitterly. Nyasaland Army Academy used to be the dream place for all League of Nations officers.
Just like in the past, officers in southern Africa would try their best to go to the British military academy to become gilded, so now the officers of the League of Nations also hope to go to the Nyasaland Army Academy for further studies and reach higher leadership positions.
The Army Academy of Southern Africa is now known as the "Four Military Academies" together with Frunze in Russia, Saint-Cyr in France, and Sandhurst in the United Kingdom. West Point in the United States has been eliminated.
This ranking was assessed by the Times News Group. Sandhurst in the UK and Saint-Cyr in France have long histories, while Frunze in Russia benefited from the outstanding performance of the Russian army in the war.
The Nyasaland Army Academy has become famous since the First World War. It has trained tens of thousands of professional officers in the past two decades and has become a holy place in the minds of soldiers all over the world. At the Nyasaland Army Academy, you can have access to the most scientific
The training methods, the most complete logistical support, the most advanced tactical ideas, and at the same time can understand the development direction of modern warfare. The last point is the most important thing for the war ministries of various countries.
Of course, just understanding is not enough. Sufficient strength support is also needed. Nyasaland Army Academy began to implement the concept of integrated air-ground operations about ten years ago, but now there are only a handful of countries that can do this.
"How could Omir go to Nyasaland at this time?" Mustafa was extremely angry. This was obviously a conspiracy.
"Sir, Ermile has no choice." Barry also knew the importance of Ermile to Mustafa, but he couldn't help himself: "Now we can only look forward to Mr. Unai and Mr. Murdu. If they act quickly,
We still have a chance."
24 hours is too urgent to build a country, and what Unai and Muldu can do is actually very limited.
While Mustafa was sitting in the City of Sorrow, Unai and Murdu were plotting in a manor on the outskirts of Constantinople.
The League of Nations forces controlled the Black Sea outlet and inevitably came into contact with the remnants of the former Ottoman Empire. Unai and Murdu stood out at this time. They were both members of the Bosporus Sea Knights Management Committee. Unai
He is a grain merchant whose main business is exporting Russian grain to Europe. Murdu is an oil tycoon. About 40% of Russia's oil sold to Europe passes through Murdu.
"Mr. Zagoyev reiterated his commitment that as long as we cooperate with Russia, our interests can be guaranteed. Mr. Zagoyev will hand over Russia's grain business to you." Murdu, whose waistline is the same as his height, is in good health.
It was so worrying that the whole person felt like being stuffed into a chair, and it was a little difficult to breathe.
"I feel now that Colonel Mustafa is not the best choice. If we cooperate with Anatolia, we can still get what we want." Unai is thin and has to pause every time he speaks.
, the breathing sound is as loud as a bellows.
Even so, Unai never leaves his hand with a cigarette, even if he doesn't smoke, he still has it in his hand. This situation is more serious than physical dependence.
"Then we have to see Anatolia first." Murdu stroked his remaining hair with a sad look on his face.
Just like Unai said, Mustafa is not the best choice, but it is the only choice at the moment.
Even if Unai and Muldu want to go to Anatolia, Anatolia will not see them.
food
Southern Africa produces more grain than Russia, is cheaper, and there are no restrictions.
Compared with southern Africa, Russian food is inherently evil. Europeans are very brave in this regard and will not drink the water from the stolen spring.
As for oil, not even Rockefeller is a rival to Adan Company, and the Baku Oilfield can only surrender, relying entirely on low prices to win.
Really cheap!
Even if Adam uses a large number of low-priced Indian and African workers, the Russians are able to make the price of oil lower than Adam's oil.
This shows the benefits of the League of Nations forces controlling the Black Sea outlet.
For Russian oil to be transported to Europe, it must pass through the Black Sea outlet. There are no oil pipelines yet, and the technical level is not up to par. Russian oil tankers must pay expensive tolls when passing through the Black Sea outlet. In this way, Russian oil
, the price is almost the same as Adan Company’s oil.
The grade of Adan's oil is higher than that of Russia, so Russia has no advantage in terms of oil.
"Why don't we go directly to Lord Cyprus." Unai tried to grasp the key point. Anatolia is just a white glove, and Arthur is the mastermind behind the scenes.
"There is no time. We can only trust Colonel Mustafa now." Murdu gave it a try, just in case a miracle happened.
Facts have proved that a very important reason why miracles are miracles is that they are not common.
It wouldn't be a miracle if it could be seen everywhere.
Unai did not believe in evil and decided to find Arthur after leaving Muldu's manor.
Misfortune followed. After leaving Murdu's manor, the car Unai was riding in broke down and crashed into the Bosphorus. Unai was trapped in the car and could not escape, and was drowned.
The Constantinople police were very efficient. They immediately went to Murdu's manor and arrested Murdu.
"I am friends with Unai, how could I murder Unai?" Muldu had no motive at all. He and Unai were best friends.
"Sir, we did not say that you murdered Mr. Unai, but Mr. Helpless was drowned after leaving your manor, so we just ask you to return to the police station with us to assist in the investigation." The police officer was businesslike and wanted to kill Murdu.
Take it away directly.
"Sorry, I'm very busy now. Can you wait until tomorrow? I'll take the initiative to report to the police station." Murdu has already realized that something is wrong. It will take at least 24 hours to cooperate with the police investigation. By then, the day lilies will be cold.
"Sir, please don't cause trouble for me. You know, I am only performing official duties." The police officer looked serious and did not give Muldu a chance to delay.
"Okay, okay, can I call your Director Alexander?" Murdu also has his own network, so this little thing is not a big deal.
The police officer said nothing and made a "please" gesture with a smile, confident.
Murdu made three consecutive calls, but none of them got through.
Murdu didn't give up and kept calling.
"Okay, please stop your performance. I think Director Alexander doesn't have time to answer your call now." The police officer saved Muldu's face. Now is the time to enforce the law strictly.
