In the morning light, ripples suddenly appeared on the calm surface of the Danube, and the water waves quickly separated to the two banks.

In the middle of the river a speedboat, the Franz-designed Royal One, was driving at high speed in the middle of the river. The entire ship adopts the latest technology and can reach a speed of up to 17 knots. This is still when the turbine is not running at full capacity. If the steam turbine is running at maximum power, the speed can easily exceed 20 knots.

The fishermen on both sides of the river got up very early. When they saw a boat with no sails, oars, or even a paddle wheel driving at high speed in the middle of the river, they all cast surprised eyes.

However, they were soon relieved, because the flag of the Habsburg family was flying on the ship.

"It's nothing unusual for a royal ship to go faster." They comforted themselves.

Franz had to return to Vienna before the start of the five-nation meeting. Due to his participation, the entire Turkish-Egyptian war has been very different from the history.

Although Austria got the fleet it dreamed of, will the great powers allow it to exist? And Belgrade and West Bosnia, will the Russians keep their word? Will the French stab Austria in the back?

Whether the British will have new tricks, and which side the Ottoman Empire will fall to, Franz must know the latest developments before he can make a decision.

And at this time, the city of Belgrade cannot be compared with Vienna at all. Except for the Grand Duke's residence and the homes of a few important people, the other houses are like Vienna's slums.

The defense of the city is very strong, and the entire Belgrade is a huge star-shaped bastion. In just two years, this city has changed hands several times, which is really embarrassing.

However, before Franz had time to feel emotional, he received an explosive news.

Just one day before, the Russian army stationed in Inzmail suddenly launched an attack on the Ottoman army in Tulcea.

The Russian army in the Sarabia Fortress came out in full force, with a total of 50,000 people. However, the Ottoman army fought back vigorously.

After Mejid made a deal with the Austrian Empire, the troops originally used to defend Austria were transferred to the vicinity of Tulcea.

Because Omar Pasha believes that the Russians will definitely be unwilling to be lonely, and their territorial ambitions are endless.

Mejid followed Omar Pasha's suggestion and mobilized heavy troops to Tulcea to prevent the Russian army from going south.

Omar Pasha even built four fortresses in Tulcea to prevent Russian raids.

Facts proved that his efforts were not in vain. Fei Tulcia's Ottoman army not only blocked the Russian surprise attack, but also drove them back to Sarabia.

Sarabia is the delta of the Danube-Black Sea. It used to be Ottoman territory. It was annexed by Russia in 1812 and has been one of Russia's frontier fortresses ever since.

The Russian army in Sarabia is not an elite, but peasants called in. The literacy rate of this army is less than 0.1%, and only 50 people in the whole army can read and write.

Don't be surprised, because the literacy rate of the entire Russian army at that time did not exceed 0.2%. At that time, the Russian army was a peasant army, and the main targets of conscription were serfs and official peasants. These people usually did not have the right to receive education, and they were considered a group of people who did not need education.

In comparison, the literacy rate of 18% in the Austrian army does not seem too shameful.

At that time, the literacy rate of the army was generally lower than the social average. Looking at the source of soldiers, it is clear that the main source of soldiers in the Russian army is serfs, while the main source of soldiers in Austria is refugees and called farmers (usually farmers will pay to let serfs from noble families replace themselves).

Of course, it was not only the fortress that was able to block the Russian army's attack. After receiving support, the Ottoman army in Tulcea had reached an astonishing 130,000 troops.

Although the total strength of the two sides was close to 200,000, in fact, the battle was not fierce, and even only a few hundred people were killed or injured.

After the Russian army discovered that the number of Ottoman troops far exceeded expectations, they were ready to retreat. After all, the superiors said they were here to receive Tulcea.

On the Ottoman side, although there are many people, the shadow of repeated defeats and the sense of security brought by the fortress made the soldiers unwilling to fight.

Because neither side wants to fight, but neither wants to bear the infamy. so

After only a few brief artillery battles, the two sides launched another symbolic charge.

In the end, the Russian army left hundreds of corpses in front of the fortress and decided to retreat.

Facing the retreating Russian army, Omar Pasha did not order the army to pursue it, but sent scout cavalry to follow it until all the Russian troops withdrew from the Ottoman territory.

Omar Pasha immediately sent someone to report to the Sultan that Tulcea had won a great victory, and the Ottoman army won a complete victory, killing more than 200 enemies.

Mejid was very happy after receiving the good news, because this was the first time in decades that the Ottoman Empire successfully repelled the Russian invasion.

He just wanted to take the opportunity to publicize, so he multiplied the number of enemies killed by ten. Under the exaggeration of the unscrupulous Western media, this number doubled again, and it became more and more outrageous.

For example, the version Franz heard was that the Ottoman Empire had invaded Russia.

But in any case, the two sides must not be allowed to continue fighting, otherwise it may even evolve into the Crimean War.

After the tsar heard the news of the defeat, he immediately ordered the execution of the general of Sarabia, and Prince Mainkov led 150,000 Russian troops to flatten Tulcha.

However, due to the vast size of Russia, it will take at least three months to deploy troops. As soon as the British learned that Russia was attacking Ottoman, they sent envoys to ask Russia to stop the attack immediately.

At the same time, Austria also reached an agreement with Britain, Prussia, and France to hold the third five-nation conference in Vienna to discuss the Near East issue.

And this period of time was not enough for Russia to capture Ottoman territory.

Under the persuasion of Prince Mainkov and Nesselov, the Tsar gave up continuing to fight against the Ottoman Empire, and instead prepared the five-nation parliament to guarantee its privileges in the strait.

In fact, this war shouldn’t have happened~lightnovelpub.net~It’s just because after Austria occupied West Bosnia, the powers seemed indifferent, and even the victim, the Ottoman Empire, didn’t say anything.

The Russian side takes it for granted that this is an opportunity for Russia to take the opportunity to expand its territory.

I wanted to take advantage of the fire to loot, but I didn't expect to hit the iron plate. If I attack by force, it will inevitably bring about even worse international influence.

Because Russia's undeclared war at this time is not only immoral, but also a violation of the Russian-Turkish alliance.

In the end, the Russian side can only use what the Americans used to do. This is a misunderstanding. In fact, a Russian soldier was lost, and the army was sent only to find the missing soldier. As for the exchange of fire, it was all a misunderstanding.

Although this explanation is very outrageous, Osman can only accept this explanation, because the great powers have chosen to remain silent. And this did avoid a war. After all, the Ottomans will most likely be injured in the Russian-Turkish war.
