In the Ottoman Empire, the majesty of the Grand Vizier cannot be offended for the time being.
Mustafi's madness made the Grand Vizier's status extremely transcendent.
Therefore.
When Hamid was in the palace and came out to advocate reforms, he was quickly placed under house arrest.
"What are you going to do? What are you doing?"
"let me out!"
"let me out!"
Hamid kept roaring.
However, everyone ignored him.
"Are you crazy? I am the son of the Sultan, I am the son of the Sultan!"
"He Ahmed is a thief!"
"Country thief!"
His voice grew louder.
But in his own palace, there were still only echoes responding to him.
"Your Highness, Your Highness..."
An old man, shivering beside him, stopped him from throwing things.
"Your Highness, stop talking, stop talking..."
The old man was very scared.
Hamid looked at him coldly: "Why, are you also afraid of that thief?"
The old man smiled bitterly and did not respond.
Your Highness...you have a deep understanding of Longyan culture. How come you don't know that there is a saying, "Those who steal hooks will be punished, and those who steal the country will be marquised"?
"The Ottoman Empire was once extremely glorious. Should I now just watch my country be destroyed by such a villain?"
Hamid burst into tears.
The old man even sighed.
He had grown up watching His Highness, and naturally knew that His Highness had the heart to save the country, and he also had such talent.
However……
Such is the situation.
What the Ottomans are today is the result of many historical conditions, and it is not the power of one person that can turn the tide.
"What should I do? Who can tell me, what should I do now?"
Hamid knew that Ahmed might not have the courage to kill him, but he could still do it if he kept himself under house arrest.
The old man looked around and finally plucked up the courage to say: "Your Highness, you have always said that the rise of Long Yan has the style of a world power..."
Hamid nodded and smiled bitterly: "They are reforming, reforming! Scientific and technological reform, institutional reform, military reform! Look at us, what he, Ahmed, is doing day by day! They are going backwards, we are going backwards!"
The old man gulped.
"Your Highness, today's Ottomans have completely lost the battlefield in Europe, and a large number of troops are already withdrawing. However, Tsarist Russia is pressing hard against us. Looking at the entire continent, Ottoman, Tsarist Russia, and Long Yan stand on three sides..."
"If His Highness wants to make a difference..."
Hamid's eyes lit up when he heard this: "What do you mean..."
"Why not seek help from the Longyan Dynasty?"
The old man spoke his mind.
Hamid, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind.
yes.
Dragon Flame Dynasty!
He has been to Longyan.
He knew Liu Shilang.
At that time, his name was Liu Zhizhou.
To be honest, he admired Liu Zhizhou very much. If Osman hadn't been very unfriendly to Long Yan at that time, he would have wanted to make friends with Liu Zheng.
It's a feeling of a close friend.
Is there hope?
he does not know.
But he could give it a try.
really.
Recently, the Ottomans have suffered successive defeats in Europe and Central Asia, and the entire military defense line has begun to shrink. Because they have to mobilize the whole country to resist the pressure from Tsarist Russia. Tsarist Russia, since Ivan IV proclaimed himself "Tsar", they have begun an unstoppable pace of external expansion.
Before the Battle of Vienna, the First Russo-Turkish War, the Ottoman Empire lost Western Ukraine.
After that, there was the Vienna War that had just happened.
After the Vienna War, Austria, Poland, and the Republic of Venice established the "Anti-Turkish Military Division Alliance" in order to defend against their common enemy. Soon, Tsarist Russia also joined it, reached a reconciliation with Poland in the west, and used all its troops to fight against the Ottoman Empire.
At this time in Tsarist Russia, Peter I was on the throne.
Peter I's reforms have also been what Hamid has been paying attention to.
in his judgment.
In the future, the world's great powers will inevitably have Tsarist Russia and Long Yan. These two countries are at the forefront of the world in terms of technology, military and political reforms.
If Liu Zheng knew that in Hamid's perception, he could be compared with Peter the Great, then he would be extremely happy.
Peter the Great was the greatest emperor in Russian history. After he succeeded to the throne, he actively established factories, developed trade, and developed culture, education, and scientific research. At the same time, he reformed the military, established a regular army and navy, and strengthened the centralized feudal autocratic system. Then he launched a war to seize the Baltic Sea outlet and lay a solid foundation for the Russian Empire. It can be said that the development history of modern Russia's politics, economy, culture, education, science and technology all originated from the era of Peter the Great.
Although now, Tsarist Russia is still a system of serfdom.
European countries have emerged one after another, but Tsarist Russia has made sluggish progress. But after Peter the Great came to the throne, everything changed. He challenged centuries of ignorance and isolation, promoted huge changes, dragged millions of people out of the Dark Ages, expanded Tsarist Russia's territory, and pushed Tsarist Russia into the modern world.
all of these……
How much overlap does Hamid’s heart have with the current Osman?
Osman can still be saved.
If we follow the reform line of Peter the Great or Liu Zheng.
However……
Think of this.
He refreshed himself, took out a pen and paper, and started writing quickly.
He wanted to write a letter to Liu Shilang.
…
The thing that has been giving Liu Zheng a headache recently is not Liaodong or Longyan.
It's not Ottoman or Tsarist Russia.
But Xie Chan and Lee Hyuna actually became good sisters.
Liu Zheng couldn't stand the fact that these two stunning beauties were together.
Every night.
Li Hyuna came in uniform and told Liu Zheng that the princess was waiting for him...
Liu Zheng was so frightened that he did not dare to stay in Liaodong Palace.
He is not Liu Xiahui.
But I really can’t stand the blessings of this group of people for the time being...
What's more.
He and Xie Chan were not married yet, and there were still many rules for getting married in ancient times. He even has to verify the woman's body before marriage. If he can't help it now, if something happens at this time, Xie Tianyao, the piss-sucking man who wants to kill himself at any time, might use this matter to punish him. He determined that for insulting the royal family, it would not be an exaggeration to have the whole family executed.
Bear with it.
Must endure!
In this winter, Liu Zheng even had a nosebleed.
Standing in the wind and snow, he looked desolate.
How can I say it myself? He is also a young man full of energy.
Why should I suffer this?
He missed Shen Manqing very much...
at this time.
Hamid's letter arrived.
Liu Zheng was slightly startled.
Letter from Ottoman?
No matter how you put it, it's all a bit fresh.
