Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 1676 Continental Confederation

A group of dragoons from the Balkan Peninsula appeared in the German region. They wore white hats, saddles and muskets, and protected a large carriage. They rushed to a meeting related to the survival of the European continent.

If this cavalry belonging to the Ottoman Turkish Empire entered the German region without authorization, it might be attacked by the German emperor and princes.

But their cavalry was given special permission to enter the territory of the Holy Roman Empire.

The Ottoman Empire and the Holy Roman Empire were enemies, and this was the first time Grand Vizier Koprulu crossed Vienna and came to the city of Münster in western Germany.

"The Chinese people really thought they were invincible, so they provoked our Ottoman Empire, and now they are provoking the European countries. I don't know whether they are confident or arrogant."

Grand Vizier Koprulu had just signed the humiliating "Constantinople Treaty" with the Allied Forces of Eight Nations in Constantinople, and now China and England came to provoke the Western European countries again, which made Koprulu very puzzled.

You must know that launching a war is a very costly thing. Few countries can fight one after another in a short period of time, let alone fighting from the Mediterranean to the Atlantic.

Hearing that the Chinese and the English had provoked the countries of Western Europe again this time, Copley saw it as an excellent opportunity to fight back.

If the Ottoman Empire can take this opportunity to abolish the humiliating "Constantinople Treaty", it will be able to wash away the shame and restore the authority of the Ottoman Empire.

This group of Balkan cavalry entered the city of Münster, and their unique costumes made the German knights cast uncomfortable glances.The German knights blocked the expansion of the Ottoman Empire to Western Europe. Their ancestors once fought against the Ottoman Empire in Vienna and other places, and they are still enemies now.

"Grand Vizier Koprulu of the Ottoman Empire has arrived."

The French cardinal Mazarin led people to meet the Grand Vizier, who was also an enemy and friend.

In order to fight against the Holy Roman Empire of the Habsburg Dynasty and the Spanish colonial empire, the Kingdom of France, the United Provinces of the Netherlands and the Ottoman Empire were actually allies.But due to differences in belief, the two sides are enemies.

The decisive factor for France to consider diplomacy is no longer a matter of faith, but national interests.

"The Ottoman Empire..."

Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand III, Elector of Brandenburg, Elector of Bavaria, Elector of Saxony, Elector of Palatinate and other German princes seemed a little indifferent to the arrival of the Grand Vizier of the Ottoman Empire.

If it is not necessary, they really don't want to join forces with the enemy Ottoman Empire.

In addition to the resentment of the Holy Roman Empire towards Ottoman Turkey, the Spanish generals were also a little unhappy with the Ottoman Empire. The two sides had a sea battle in the Mediterranean 70 years ago. The Spanish fleet and the Venetian fleet defeated the Ottoman Empire fleet.

Also grudges against the Ottoman Empire were the Kingdom of Poland and the Tsarist Empire, which had territorial conflicts with the Ottoman Empire.

Only Queen Christina of Sweden has no feelings for the Ottoman Empire, because Sweden has no disputes with the Ottoman Empire.

The aged grand vizier Koprulu was also very helpless when he saw that more than half of the big men at the meeting did not give him a good look.

The Ottoman Empire was too strong before, and the eastern centralized system coupled with the first use of guns and artillery, continued to expand and provoked the surrounding kingdoms.

But now that the Ottoman Empire is going downhill, in order to relieve the humiliation brought about by the Treaty of Constantinople, he also has to cooperate with the Western European countries that he hates. The so-called enemy of the enemy is a friend.

"I heard that your sultan was imprisoned by you and the ruler of the harem because he refused to surrender, and supported a baby emperor. When did the mighty Ottoman Empire become so cowardly?" Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand III Said angrily.

The Ottoman Empire occupied many territories of the Holy Roman Empire in Eastern Europe. It surrounded Vienna 100 years ago, and the two sides had a grudge.

"Maybe we had conflicts of one kind or another before, but a new enemy appeared, and they were so powerful that they easily destroyed our fleet, dispersed the army defending Constantinople, and captured Constantinople. We We need cooperation to defeat them. Any grievances between us can be resolved after defeating a powerful enemy."

Grand Vizier Koprulu was older than almost everyone present, and he was also the prime minister of the Ottoman Empire, which spanned Asia, Africa and Europe. At this time, he was talking to European countries in a humble manner. Comfortable.But joining forces with the European countries is currently the only opportunity to abolish the Treaty of Constantinople.

If this opportunity is lost, then giving him another ten years may not necessarily be able to dissolve the Treaty of Constantinople.

"Everyone, whether it is a territorial dispute or a matter of belief, let's come to an end for now. If the Holy Alliance blocks the sea, our continent will be in trouble. We must defeat the Holy Alliance and remove the threat." The French ambassador saw that the Holy Roman Empire and the Ottoman Empire were tit-for-tat , So stand up and reconcile.

"That's right, any grievances have been temporarily put aside. We currently have a common enemy. England, Denmark, and Portugal form a line along the Atlantic Ocean. The existence of the Holy Alliance will block our European continent, and our every move is under their surveillance. Under." The ruler of the Netherlands, William II, also stepped forward to mediate their conflicts at this time.

"I'm not here to listen to your quarrel, but to resolve the Holy Alliance's threat to Sweden. Pointless quarrels will only waste time. Please put aside your grievances for now and wait until the Holy Alliance collapses." Queen Christina of Sweden also said.

Under the mediation of everyone, the European Continental Conference can continue to proceed smoothly. This time with the accession of the Ottoman Empire, coupled with the split of the Swiss Confederation from the Holy Roman Empire, the European Continental Union has ten powerful countries, namely the Kingdom of France, The Federal Republic of the Netherlands, the Kingdom of Spain, the Kingdom of Sweden, the Swiss Confederation, the Holy Roman Empire, the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, the Tsarist Russian Empire, the Ottoman Empire, and the Pope who supported them spiritually.

This is an unprecedented alliance, which brings together almost all the powerful countries in Europe and hundreds of millions of people, and their goal is to target the Holy Alliance of Windsor led by Chu Yun.

Grand Vizier Koplulu seized the leak in the Treaty of Constantinople. The treaty did not state that the Ottoman Empire could not continue to use troops. As long as he dared to take risks, the Ottoman Empire could still gamble with European countries on the fate of the country. .Of course, if they lose again this time, the fate of the Ottoman Empire will be even worse.
