As mentioned last time, Demir and his old boss found out that Russia is bad, but they just grab some territory; Austria is even worse, they grab the hearts and minds of Turkey.
Colonel Demir of Turkey, after talking with the old chief, returned to the parlour.
Austria and Turkey, in a peaceful, cordial and friendly atmosphere, began formal conversations.
The old chief didn’t say anything, he just acted as a referrer. Of course, the meaning was clearly explained.
“Major Hoffman, your love for peace, your recognition of Turkey and Serbia, and your love for Belgrade can be felt by me and the 100,000 people in Belgrade.”
Colonel Demir, as the party who urgently needed an agreement, took the initiative to speak.
“Dear Colonel Demir, Austria and the Ottomans are important drivers of European balance and support for world peace. Since ancient times, the two countries have been models of peaceful coexistence.”
Major Hoffman first expressed his overall attitude, that is, he is willing to be peaceful, and then made a comment on recent events:
“I heard the news a few days ago that the principality of Serbia was devastated. Austria, Novi Sad, Colonel Schmidt and I are all deeply concerned.”
He looked at the two Turks, but he didn’t respond, so he continued his political lines:
“His Royal Highness Grand Duke Mihailo, and His Royal Highness Prince Alexander, suffered misfortunes one after another. All the people wept for it, and Xingyue took the initiative to reduce its brilliance.”
Colonel Demir, looking at this mournful rhythm, it is impossible not to follow, after all, Serbia is a vassal of Turkey. He went on to say:
“Yes, His Royal Highness the Grand Duke and His Royal Highness are the pillars of the Ottoman Empire, and the two families are also the stabilizers of the Serbian region. Here, I would like to express my deepest condolences and deepest condolences to the two families.”
Hoffman knew that formal negotiations were about to begin, but to summarize:
“The peace agreement we made this time is to comply with the wishes of the two Highnesses, and also to create a new chapter for the peace between the two countries.”
“Your Majesty, there is knowledge under the spring, um, there is knowledge in the sky, and you will also pray for our peaceful efforts.”
After the two sides finished talking nonsense, they discussed the details. In fact, there was nothing to discuss. They had already been settled by Schmidt and the old chief. Here, it’s just a formality.
In a peaceful and friendly atmosphere, Austria and Turkey have finalized the specific terms of this agreement.
Major Hoffmann, representing Austria, representing the Neusatz Independence Regiment.
Colonel Demir, on behalf of Turkey, on behalf of Belgrade’s City Defence Forces.
The two sides signed a peace agreement. After the agreement is over, if there is no objection between the two sides, it will automatically continue for 3 years, automatically continuous, no more than two times.
“The signing of this agreement is a pilot for the peace between Turkey and Austria. It will bring new attempts to the long-term peace between Turkey and Austria, and set an example for the Balkans, Europe and the world.”
The Chief Minister of the Provisional Government, Count Vucic, greatly praised the agreement before signing it:
“Grand Duke Mihailo, and Prince Alexander, the two adults, serve the country and the people, have the courage to take responsibility, and are willing to work hard. Now that the sages have not gone far, our agreement is also a farewell to the sages.”
After Vucic finished speaking, he turned to the Director of the Chief Minister’s Office and said:
“I’ll get a manuscript later and burn it for the Grand Duke and His Royal Highness.”
He paused for a moment, and continued to organize the language:
“My two highnesses, they are under Jiuquan, um, in the sky. After reading this agreement, they will also recognize our work, and it will also help our provisional government work on all fronts to advance quickly and in an orderly manner.”
“Okay, Your Excellency Chief Minister. Later, I will have two copies by hand and add the title, one for His Royal Highness the Grand Duke and one for His Royal Highness the Prince.”
“Well, the civil servants at the executive level should be as thorough as you think. Indeed, if the two of them get a copy, they may fight in front of God because they are vying to read first.”
“Yes, if they fight like this, it will not only affect themselves, their family, but even God’s perception of our Serbia.”
The Minister of Internal Affairs, Galasanin, said when he signed:
“The benevolence of the saints, the top leaders of Austria and Turkey, Novi Sad and Belgrade, conform to the times, carry on the past and forge ahead, they are all incarnations of kindness.”
Police Minister Ristic, when he signed it, also said:
“Half a mountain is separated, two cities are peaceful, and a river is separated, the two countries are peaceful. I believe that after the signing of this agreement, the people of the two places will be happier, and the high-level officials of the two countries can devote their energy to do more meaningful things.”
The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Zaire, the location of the signature was in the hospital, and he cried:
“The people of the two places, the people of the two countries, the soldiers of the two places, the soldiers of the two countries, the long-awaited peace has come. The people will also laugh, and the sun and the moon will shine.”
Wanmin couldn’t hear him, so he didn’t hang him.
The sun and the moon cover hundreds of millions of people, but they are not happy:
Which hammer said before that let us “reduce the brightness”, and your hammer let us “increase the brightness”, you humans, what are you doing?
I will reduce your uncle, and I will increase your uncle. Riyuepu flashed bright eyes and scolded the barracks and hospital in Novi Sad.
Neither diminished nor increased the brightness, but they did their own thing, one was warm and the other was fiery.
In the Novi Sad government, the corresponding department heads also signed the agreement separately.
Of course, the Greater Morava River area included in the agreement is currently under the trusteeship of Novi Sad.

“Old sir, why are you mobilizing so many troops this time? I didn’t hear anything unusual about the rebels, nor did I hear that Russia was playing hooligans. Could it be the Greek brats who want to make trouble?”
Colonel Demir, after the peace agreement was finalized, he accompanied the old chief for two drinks.
He has a very close personal relationship with the old chief, and his rank is not too low, so he dares to ask questions about the large-scale deployment of troops.
“The Nis rebels, the scourge is too much, too big. Most of the entire Serbia region and most of the Bulgarian region have been harassed by them, and even Kosovo and Macedonia are also affected.”
The old chief said with a look of hatred:
“This time, a big one is going to come from above, and the elite soldiers will be sent to encircle and suppress them, away from the cities where the rebels gather, and arrange for veterans to bring new recruits, so let’s guard them alive.”
The old man looked serious, but when he spoke, he had a confidence that victory was in sight.
“How come it’s so big, what are the new trends of the rebels? How can you surround them?”
Demir was still in a fog when he listened to the old chief’s words, and couldn’t help but become curious.
“In the south, the Bulgarian region is mainly composed of a smaller rebel force, estimated at five or six thousand people, and is temporarily in charge of the Bulgarian Governor’s Region.”
The old man’s voice became louder, and it seemed that he was talking about the main point:
“In the north, in Serbia, there is a relatively large number of rebels, estimated at eight to nine thousand, or even tens of thousands, and is in charge of the Serbian Governorate.”
These data are mainly based on the following reports from the receiving troops. On the Governor’s Palace, experienced and experienced people, and then squeeze the water according to the local habits of increasing the amount and their own professional judgment.
In fact, on Jovanovic’s side, 3,000 came up when it was low, and 4,000 when it was more.
As for the fifth one, it’s similar to what Schneider said, just over 1,500, and his regular army is only 2,000 at most.
However, the old soldier oil they left behind, the effect of the campaign can be very powerful. Therefore, the two governor’s palaces in Turkey, constantly squeezing water, are still much higher than the real data.
“The majority of the rebels, led by Jovanovitch, have been looting along the West Morava River, and in our judgment, their next step is… or it may be when we speak, they have already Ransacked Chuck.”
“Why is it so slow? At their previous speed, they should have fought back and forth twice.”
“Demir, what are you talking about, are you still a soldier of the Empire? Are you still a believer in God?”
The old man scolded him very seriously.
“Sir, that’s not what I meant. At the beginning, they ransacked two cities, including Niš and Kruševac, and a small city, Prokuple.”
Demir sighed in relief and continued:
“I mean, at this rate, he has sacked at least five or six cities in the past four months. Why haven’t two cities been captured yet, assuming Chachak hasn’t captured it yet.”
“Oh, don’t mention it, the Empire is really distressing. Every time our soldiers go to places, they have to see the money. And the army transferred from different cities is also a problem. The rebels are very daring and even ambushed us. Several times, lost soldiers and lost generals.”
“Sir, what do you mean, the rebels are right in front, but our troops don’t fight. We only set off after getting the money?”
“Yes. Alas, God bless Osman.”
The old man looked at the subordinate and said:
“We judged that the rebels will continue to move up the river, so we are going to encircle them in Porega. If the siege of Porega is successful, most of the rebels will basically be over.”
The old man came to the map and gestured with his hand:
“After the rebels sacked Chachak, they must go up the river to Porega. Two of our teams, one from Kraljevo, about 13,000 men, followed closely and bit them; the other, from the capital, Depart from (Kragujevac), about 16,000 people, and after reaching Kraljevo, proceed lightly and go directly to the southern route.”
The old man folded his arms and said:
“Two troops, about three times the number of rebels, surrounded them at Porega.”
The old man clenched his open fingers again and said:
“Destroy them all here.”
“There is no problem with this idea. First, in the whole area, they can only go up the river to find food in new places. Second, they follow closely behind, they have nowhere to go, they propose This encirclement strategy is definitely a genius.”
After Demir finished his praise, he hurriedly glanced at the old officer out of the corner of his eyes. Sure enough, he had a smile on his face and was content.
Colonel Demir knew his superiors too well. The old superiors were from a scholarly family. They were familiar with military books since childhood, but they did not fight too much. When they arrived in Belgrade, they also served as deputy to the chief at that time.
Of course, when he was the deputy, he did come up with a lot of good ideas. Whether it was a proper retreat or reducing losses, he was all approved by the chief officer. Therefore, when the chief officer was promoted to the capital city defense commander, he was also recommended to be in charge of the Belgrade military.
Elder, relatively speaking, he is better at planning.
It’s a pity that the Ottoman Turkish army’s level of implementation of the plan is too low. Compared with a brand-new force like Jovanovitch, it is not of an order of magnitude.
In Chinese words, no matter how good the scriptures are, monks with crooked mouths can read them for you.
However, there are also various misunderstandings. For example, there are only 3,000 rebels, and Ottoman believes that there are tens of thousands.
If there are tens of thousands of people, between Kraljevo and Chachak, the north bank of the West Morava River cannot be spread or hidden. But more than 3,000 people can hide.
And the following army went to the south bank of the Morava River, which is not wrong, but the north bank did not send enough scout horses. Jovanovic’s 3,000 elite soldiers perfectly escaped their 13,000 veterans, um, Veteran Youzi, then turned around and headed for the capital.
It’s exactly the same as what Carl said through Schneider’s mouth.
