The exchange of fire between Bulgaria and the Ottomans on the border immediately attracted the attention of all countries. The Balkans is a sensitive area, and Austria-Hungary, Italy, Russia, the United Kingdom, and Germany all have interests here. Therefore, every move that appears in the Balkans is particularly interesting.

​​

And the sudden exchange of fire between Bulgaria and the Ottomans on the border made Carlo give priority to asking about the attitude of his allies. After all, the attention of this place is too high, and no one is sure whether it is an ally instigating it or not.

​​

But soon, Carlo no longer had this doubt, because both Berlin and Vienna sent telegrams asking, and it was obvious that they did not know.

​​

Since everyone doesn't know about it, then this matter becomes a bit interesting.

​​

In order to be conservative, Carlo ordered the Italian troops in Albania and Kosovo to stop taking full leave of absence. In addition, the army also dropped two divisions from the mainland and temporarily entered these two provinces for the sake of safety.

​​

As for the dispute between Bulgaria and the Ottomans, we can only wait and see what happens.

​​

At present, the disputes between Bulgaria and the Ottomans in European countries are similar to those in Italy.

​​

It did not disappoint the onlookers. After Bulgaria and the Ottomans exchanged fire on the border, both countries mobilized troops to the border.

​​

Of course, the voices of the governments of various countries for peace still have to be announced, and even several ambassadors even called for calm between the two countries. Appeals are appeals, what the actual situation is like, this is not what the people at the bottom know.

​​

When Bulgaria and the Ottomans were at odds with each other, all countries thought that a war was about to break out between the two sides, and suddenly a country entered the eyes of all countries.

​​

This country is Greece. The Greeks claimed that the Greeks in South Macedonia were oppressed by the Ottoman government and demanded that the Ottoman Empire withdraw from South Macedonia and hand it over to Greece for supervision. After a year, the people of South Macedonia would decide their own ownership.

​​

The sudden arrival of the Greeks made all countries immediately feel that Bulgaria and Greece must have reached some kind of agreement, at least on the issue of the Ottomans.

​​

As countries were thinking about it, of course, as the targeted Ottomans, it was impossible to accept Greece's demands.

​​

One more thing to say here, there is currently a drought in the Ottomans. In the winter of last year, there was very little rain in the Ottomans, and when the spring came, there was no rain.

​​

As we all know, the grain-producing areas in the Ottomans all have a Mediterranean climate. The lack of rain in winter will lead to a decrease in grain production, not to mention that there is no rain in the spring, and there is basically no rain in the summer, which also leads to a complete outbreak of the Ottoman drought.

​​

The outbreak of the drought made the Ottomans fall into internal worries, and Bulgaria and Greece saw the opportunity and were ready to compete with the Ottomans for South Macedonia and Thrace.

​​

In the face of the pressure from Bulgaria and the Greeks, the Ottomans did not intend to give up. The decline of the Ottomans over the years has resulted in the loss of a large amount of territory, which has long aroused the dissatisfaction of the Ottoman people. Before that, the rise of the al-Shabaab in Turkey was a manifestation of this dissatisfaction.

​​

Although Al-Shabaab was pushed down by other political parties due to its political immaturity, everyone knows that Al-Shabaab has now become a force that cannot be ignored in Ottoman politics.

​​

Therefore, no one in the Ottomans dared to accept such a condition of ceding territory, and after learning of the unreasonable demands of the Greeks, the Al-Shabaab encouraged the people to defend the Ottoman Empire.

​​

And after Ottoman refused his request, Greece immediately declared war on Ottoman. The day after Greece declared war on the Ottomans, Bulgaria also declared war on the Ottomans.

At this point, the Balkan War broke out, and Bulgaria and Greece jointly launched an attack on the Ottomans.

​​

To say that the key point of this war is Adrianople, which is located at the confluence of the Maricha and Denza rivers.

​​

This is the current Ottoman military center and the last strong line of defense in the Ottoman capital Istanbul. Before this, Italy and Bulgaria jointly conquered the city.

​​

However, due to various reasons, Adrianople returned to the embrace of the Ottomans. After being lost and found, Ottoman under the guidance of German military advisers, further construction and strengthening of the fortress city. Among them, the fortress built on the Aidual Mountains on the north side formed a corner with the Adrianople on the south side, stabilizing the Ottoman advantage in the city.

​​

The first battle of the war was fought in this area. The Bulgarian First Army repelled the Ottoman 10th Division defending the Marija River and arrived around Adrianople.

​​

Rather than saying that the Bulgarians repelled the Ottoman army, they retreated to Adrianople after a little resistance. Here, the Ottomans gathered an army of 178,000 people. Among them, 94,000 are new-style troops trained with the help of German military advisers, and their equipment and training level are top-notch in the Ottoman army.

​​

At present, there are only 161,000 troops in the Ottoman army trained by German advisers. Except for the part that is stationed in the capital Istanbul (43,000) and South Macedonia (23,000), they are all here.

​​

In the face of the elite troops gathered by the Ottomans, Bulgaria is not bad. After the outbreak of the war, Bulgaria formed three armies with a total strength of 217,000. Except for the personnel of the Third Army and the poor equipment left behind (29,000 people), the other two armies were all on the front line of Adrianople. However, in view of the strong fortifications of Adrianople, the Bulgarians did not start immediately, they need to remove the surrounding strongholds first.

​​

Therefore, the two armies of Bao and Austria were engaged in a not fierce but extremely **** battle in Adrianople. UU reading www. uukanshu.com

​​

While fighting in Adrianople, Greece, an ally of Bulgaria, also attacked South Macedonia. The Greek army of 94,000 people, led by Crown Prince Constantine, launched an attack on the Ottoman army in South Macedonia. . At present, there are only more than 50,000 Ottoman troops stationed in South Macedonia. In the face of the Greek offensive, they can only choose to stick to it.

​​

This time, the Greek army was a shame. After a month of fighting, the Greek army defeated the Ottoman army and captured South Macedonia and Thrace such as Thessaloniki, Veria, Ezesa, Kavala, etc. some cities.

​​

In addition to the battle on land, the sea also did not fall.

​​

The Greek navy also fought with the Ottoman navy in the Aegean Sea. After a tough battle, the Greek navy successfully repelled the Ottoman navy. Then the Greek navy successfully blocked the Dardanelles, the Ottoman navy's outlet, and locked the Ottoman navy in the Black Sea.

​​

At the beginning of the game, Osman fell into a passive position on the sea and land lines. The high fighting spirit of the Bulgarians and the Greeks in this war surprised observers from all over the world. As for the Ottoman army, although the army trained by German advisors is worse than before, its fighting spirit is not as good as that of the opponent. Not to mention those troops who have not been trained, their performance is a bit stretched.

​​

Faced with such a situation, the Ottomans did not sit still. In addition to constantly mobilizing troops to fight between the two countries, the Ottomans also turned their attention to other countries.
