Tsarist Empire: Please call me His Majesty the Tsar

"Your Excellency, is the Russian Empire trying to start a full-scale war with the Empire?" Robert Cecil showed great anger in front of Izvolsky.

Although, Robert Cecil is clear. Faced with this threat from the Russian Empire, they had to compromise and retreat. However, as the saying goes, losers do not lose. He is still very tough.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, the Empire does not want to go to war with the Sun Never Sets Empire. However, in order to guarantee the interests of the empire, we have no choice. We just want the Sun Never Set Empire to know that the Russian Empire is not afraid of anyone! Izvolsky was also very tough.

Robert Cecil sneered, the performance of the Russian Empire this time was really beyond his expectations.

However, this also made Robert Cecil believe that the Russian Empire really had too much of a threat to the Sun Never Set Empire. In order to stabilize the hegemony of the empire, it is necessary to destroy the Russian Empire by all means. Otherwise, the threat of the Russian Empire to the Sun Never Sets Empire will become more and more powerful.

Before leaving Istanbul, Robert Cecil met with the Ottoman Foreign Minister Fatih Pasha.

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency Pasha, that the Empire is withdrawing from this peace talks. For the time being, we cannot continue to put pressure on the Russians. Otherwise, a full-scale war would break out between the Empire and the Russian Empire. The Empire could not have a full-scale war with the Russian Empire for the sake of the Ottoman Empire at present. Even, the empire did not completely break the confidence of the Russian Empire. Robert Cecil looked apologetic.

Fatih Pasha's face was very ugly.

He is not a fool, he knows very well that the sun does not set and people want to get out. Or rather, want to abandon the Otto~Man Empire.

However, the sun did not set and the people directly withdrew, but what should they do?

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, what should we do then? The Russians will destroy us. Fatihpa-Shah looked horrified.

Robert Cecil shook his head: "The imperial navy will temporarily stay in the Bosphorus to warn the Russians, they will not really destroy you." You can seize this opportunity to sign a peace treaty with the Russians and end the war first. This time, you may pay a huge price. But there's no way around it. When the next war breaks out again, find another opportunity to recover all the losses today! "

Fatih Pasha knew there was no way around it.

After losing the support of the people who never sets, or the attitude of the people who do not set, the Russians will be more unscrupulous.

If the war cannot be ended and allowed to continue. Well, the Ottoman Empire is really finished.

Although my heart is very angry, I am very angry, and even have a feeling that the sun does not set.

However, Fatih Pasha knew that at this time, he could not fall out with the sun never set. They still needed the support of the sun to restrain the Russians. Otherwise, they would not be able to resist the Russians.

Subsequently, Robert Cecil left Istanbul and left the peace talks.

However, the Royal Navy of the Sun Never Set Empire still remained in the Sea of Marmara, which undoubtedly represented the attitude of the Sun Never Set Empire, and they were still standing for the Ottoman Empire.

Next, the negotiations between the Russian and Ottoman empires were undoubtedly much easier.

"Your Excellency Pasha, this war was completely the initiative of the Ottoman Empire to attack the empire. Therefore, the Ottoman Empire had to admit responsibility for the defeat. The Rumilia region, including Istanbul, will be ceded to the Empire in its entirety! Izvulsky began to put forward conditions.

Fatih Pasha also knew very well that Rumelia could not be saved, and no one could make the Russians spit out the fat that had been eaten in their mouths. However, he still wanted to fight for it again.

"Your Excellency, we can abandon Rumelia. However, Istanbul is going to be returned to us. Here, after all, is the capital of the Ottoman Empire! Fatih Pasha said.

Izvolsky shook his head: "Your Excellency Pasha, this is impossible. Even if we abandon Istanbul, will you dare to make it the capital? In that case, in the next war, won't we be able to easily take your capital? Instead of that, it is better to leave Istanbul to us as well! "

Of course, the deeper reason is that Istanbul is on the edge of the Bosphorus, if not able to occupy it. Then, the Russian Empire could not control the Bosphorus. The warships of the Russian Empire were still restricted if they wanted to enter and exit the strait.

Seeing this, Fatih Pasha had to give up helplessly.

"Second, the Ottoman Empire must compensate the Empire for its losses and pay the Empire one billion rubles." Izvolsky continued.

"A billion rubles? We simply can't come up with that much money! Fatih Pasha shook his head repeatedly.

For the Ottoman Empire, whose national strength has greatly declined, a billion rubles is already a lot of money.

"If the Ottoman Empire does not have so much money to pay this war reparation, then consider transferring the Libia region to us!" Izvolsky said with a smile.

Originally, North Africa was part of the Ottoman Empire. However, due to the invasion of the Western powers, only Libia is now in the hands of the Ottoman Empire. The rest of the world has become colonies of Western powers.

If the Russian Empire can control the Libyan region, this will undoubtedly further strengthen the voice of the Russian Empire around the Mediterranean, and even echo the Balkans occupied by the Russian Empire.

Fatih Pasha certainly wouldn't agree. Libia was already their only stronghold in North Africa, so how could they give up easily?

Besides, the amount of war reparations for one billion rubles is probably too large.

After some haggling, the Russian Empire demanded that the Ottoman Empire pay 900 million rubles in war reparations.

The Ottomans had no choice but to agree.

But how to pay this war reparations, the Ottoman Empire still needs to think carefully. They can only pay part of it, and the rest, I'm afraid, will need to borrow from the Sun Never Set Empire.

In addition, the Ottoman Empire had to recognize that the warships of the Russian Empire had the right to free navigation in the Bosphorus, the Sea of Marmara and the Dardanelles.

The Ottoman Empire had no objection to this.

Subsequently, Izvulsky and Fatih Pasha, representing the Russian Empire and the Ottoman Empire respectively, signed their names on the peace treaty.
