Last year the Chinese opened the Suez Canal, drove the battleship to the Mediterranean, lightly defeated the Ottoman fleet, and captured the vital island of Cyprus, the sea route to Istanbul has been opened!

However, the Chinese did not continue their offensive. They did not take advantage of the victory, which is incredible.

Instead, the Grand Vizier led the army, and the momentum of the army came up, just because the enemy should be used, the enemy is immortal and disabled.

Why don't the Chinese come to attack?

The two wise men in the cafe looked at each other and found the answer.

The Chinese deliberately did not come to attack, and they were waiting for the civil strife in the Ottoman Empire!

It is even possible that the internal strife of the Guards may be fueled by the Chinese people playing black hands in it.

The opponent is a scheming man, but the Grand Vizier has no retreat, so he has to go to the end in a dark way, there is no way.

And after the civil strife, will the Chinese give the Ottoman Empire a respite?

The Grand Master looked at the Grand Vizier and said worriedly: "You have to strengthen security!"

Da Vizier said openly and honestly: "I am over eighty years old, and I have no regrets in my life. If I really want to see God, I will go!"

"No, your life belongs not only to you, but to the empire! Your life must be saved!" The Grand Master knew very well the importance of the Grand Vizier to the Ottoman Empire, regardless of whether he could turn the tide, as long as he was there. At least everyone believes in him. It is like the Grand Master who has known him for so many years, knowing what he is, and knowing that Grand Vizier physically maintains his devotion to God, his life is simple and self-disciplined. To love women, to devote themselves to the affairs of the empire, there is no doubt about the loyalty to the empire!

Therefore, the guards poured dirty water on Grand Vizier, saying that he had collected white money, betrayed the Ottoman Empire, said he was blasphemous, said he had robbed a bunch of loli at home, and the master never Believe!

If it was the disguise of the Grand Vizier, it had been pretended for so many years, from the time when he got acquainted with him to the old, the Grand Master was deceived by him, and he would recognize it.

As long as the Great Vizier is there, even when facing the vicious Chinese, the empire can survive for at least a while.

If he is not here... think about the consequences, the Grand Master really shudder!

The two talked, exchanged information, and exchanged opinions. Da Vizier's worries faded away and he didn't feel the coffee is bitter.

With the Grand Master, the two of them are very relaxed, because they have nothing to ask for each other, just for the tomorrow and the future of the Ottoman Empire!

...

Three days later, on the street near the guard barracks, one after another heavy iron pots were thrown out!

The people of Istanbul burst into laughter: "The Guards are breaking the pot again!"

They joined in the fun and threw the iron pan out, mixing it with the special iron pan made by the guards.

According to tradition, the Ottoman Guards throw iron pots in the barracks on the streets to express their dissatisfaction to the Sultan, while the piles of iron pots on the streets announce to the world that the Imperial Guards are rebelling again.

Sure enough, groups of guards were scattered all over the street. Soldiers were all over the street. The officers wore iron armor and the soldiers wore leather armor. They were holding scimitars, shields, spears, and Western-style big arms. Swords, bows and arrows, etc., are all cold weapons!

In fact, the Ottoman Empire has spared no effort to equip the army with a large number of hot weapons: muskets and artillery. The Guards, as the pro-military forces of Sudan, have received the most hot weapons and equipment.

But today, the Guards deliberately did not use hot weapons, but only cold weapons, in order to express their disdain for white-skinned weapons from Europe.

We will never use the weapons of the heretics, we can defeat all the enemies by returning to the traditional weapons!

"Force on Topkapi Palace!" Bluffhead Pasha of the Guards, dressed in glamorous equipment, made him particularly eye-catching and vigorous while riding a horse.

"We have the chance to win!" Schas Pasha said arrogantly.

They received the rest of the weapons in the city, and the Pashas who were in charge of the city's defense forces sent them a message, asking the leaders of the guards to send people to find themselves, and they wanted to participate together.

Take a closer look, 80% of the city's defense forces have responded to the call of the guards and are preparing for a mutiny to overthrow the current Sultan!

"Hurry up and execute as planned!" Manisa Pasha said solemnly.

Compared with the optimism of his colleagues, Manisa Pasha is more cautious, knowing that now is not the time to celebrate, only to catch all the Sudan, control the Da Vizier, and control the Sudan and Da Vizier. The people are all killed, and it's time to celebrate with coffee.

So Bluffhead Pasha took the people to the residence of the Grand Vizier and the ministers as planned, and prepared to capture them.

The plan of the Guards is to unite religious figures, arrest the Grand Vizier and the ministers of the imperial party, Pasha, and force the Sudan to make concessions and even abdicate.

As long as they are controlled, Sudan will become a lonely man, not worth mentioning!

On the way, the guards had no choice but to looted the market and gave themselves a lot of money.

The mutiny was successful. The upper level was sealed with a seal of Pasha, and land was indispensable. The lower level was not so well treated and earned a small amount of money to spend.

This is "tradition." Some experienced wealthy households prepare generous silver dollars or supplies in advance, and when the guards pass by their house, they will send out the silver dollars and other things.

After the price agreed in advance and sufficient, the guards accepted it and posted a sign of the guards at the door of the house. The guards who came later would not grab the house.

If you don't give money, you will ransack the house and let them know what the guards are. This is not only the Sudan's pot, but also the people's pot!

As for Manisa Pasha and Shihas Pasha, the two led their troops to the palace, preparing to take over the defense of the palace, cut off traffic inside and outside the palace, and control the sultan.

The "routine" of turning the pot is very mature. Don't kill Sudan too directly, otherwise you will bear the serious reputation of "killing the master". The most "ideal" state is to first depose the Sudan and lock him up so that he will be forgotten by the world. In the past few years, no matter what happens to the abdication of the Sudan, it will not be ignored.

The march went smoothly, and there were no obstacles along the way, and soon arrived at Topkapi Palace.

Where does the defense seem to be lax?

Manisa Pasha narrowed his eyes and looked at it. Soon after, his lieutenant Alkmaar Bey came over and reported anxiously: "The Sultan is not in the palace, the Sultan is gone! The Sultan is gone!"

Sultan ran away?

Manisa Pasha and Shihas Pasha were taken aback, and both felt a punch in the air.

The Sultan is not in the palace. Isn't the previous show of the Guards shown to the blind?

The two Pashas sullenly said, "Call Utrecht!"

Utrecht was the officer who was arranged by the Guards to monitor the movements of Sudan outside the palace. He did not report the movements of Sudan to the Guards in time and was seriously dereliction of duty!

Soon ~lightnovelpub.net~ someone came to report: "Can't find Utrecht!"

Shihas Pasha furiously said: "Good fellow, dare to betray us?"

"No, it’s not necessarily a betrayal, it’s probably dead, killed by the people of the Sudan!" Manisa Pasha judged, because Utrecht was promoted personally, and he knew his personality would not Ran away with Sudan.

They temporarily stayed in the square in front of the palace, and they did not give up on sending people into the palace to search again, confirming that the sultan was indeed not in the palace, and his mother, Duhen Khatij, was also not in the palace either.

Bad news kept coming. The army sent to arrest the ministers found nothing. The Grand Vizier and other important ministers were absent and seemed to disappear in Istanbul.

Manisa Pasha, Bluffhead Pasha and Schas Pasha got together, and speaking of the situation, there is a bad feeling.

At this moment, Kuai Mafei reported: "A large number of troops have been found on the coastal avenue. Look at their banners, not the city defense army!"
