Chapter 2660: Abandoned.

"It can't be considered as a complete abandonment? At least they are still helping us financially and militaryly." Zemal Pasha said.

"It's not like that. These aids are only superficial. Just think about why the Americans help us? I think everything except economic benefits is not discussed now! Because you and I know the power of Germany and Austria, even if we don't We will maintain a military alliance with Germany and Austria, but good-will neutrality is necessary. We can’t be at odds with Germany and Austria. Now, on the European continent, countries that challenge the authority of Germany and Austria are dead! If there is no economic benefit, then why should they stay friendly with us? There is no unreasonable payment between countries. These aids will soon be cut." Kemal said.

"Then what shall we do?" Zemal Pasha asked.

"I don't know, let's take a look at the situation first. What's the current relationship between us and Germany?" Kemal asked.

"On the surface it is still the same, but the Germans still object to our attack on the Arabian Peninsula, but this opposition has not been implemented in actual actions, and they have not imposed sanctions on us. In addition, it is said that a German delegation will visit us recently. , There may be your old friend General von Seckert.” Zemal Pasha said meaningfully.

"Well, I will talk to General von Seckert. He is a nobleman of Prussia, and has worked under Prince Ruprecht. He is a relatively well-informed person in Germany." Kemal Said. "As for our military operations on the Arabian Peninsula, I think we should reduce the scale at present and end this war at the right time."

"Are we good to the Germans?" Zemal Pasha asked.

"That's right, but the most important thing is that I always believe that our main purpose now is to solve domestic development problems and some institutional defects, rather than continue to expand. In modern times, the root of any country's strength lies in domestic industry. , Science and technology, and economic power. There is no future for pure military violence. We are very weak now. It is not just a problem of national strength. Our political power is in crisis, and ethnic and religious contradictions are intensifying. We are actually standing at a moment. On the crater that might erupt! However, quite a few people still don’t know it. They think that the Turkish Empire has ruled this way for hundreds of years, and it can still be so in the future. This is ridiculous!" Kemal said bitterly.

"Well, these problems can't be solved in a day or two. We won't mention this for now. So what should we do with the Americans? Maybe after the war is over, we can continue to cooperate with the Americans?" Zemalpa Xia asked.

"I don't know, this war is still early, I don't think it will be over in two years." Kemal said.

"Isn't it? The American opponent, Japan, is not strong." Zemal said.

"Because, in this world, apart from the Americans, no powerful country wants this war to end so quickly. Therefore, even if it is stronger than the United States, it is impossible for them to fight against so many powerful countries at the same time!" Kemal Said word by word.

"And even if the war is over, the United States, thousands of miles away, needs to reach agreement with Germany and Austria on many things before they can implement it. The struggles and compromises in it are beyond our ability to interfere. Today, the Americans do for their own sake. Interests give up us, what about the future? Who can guarantee that the Americans will not do it a second time?" Kemal asked rhetorically.

"So, Your Excellency, your thinking has changed?" Zemal asked.

"Anyway, my perception of the United States has declined. As for my attitude towards Germany? I think there are some things that need to be read and discussed, such as after meeting with General von Seckert. We need to know the attitude of the Germans, if possible , I think I'd better talk with the Crown Prince of Bavaria." Kemal said.

"Actually, the Germans may also abandon us, or even fall into trouble." Zemal Pasha said.

"Yes, it is indeed possible. But the problem now is that the German is very close to us, and his front makes the world tremble. The Americans are a little far away from us." Kemal said with a sigh. "In addition, Crown Prince Ruprecht's personal credibility is still good. Although I believe that personal integrity is ridiculous at this time, some things in this world are so irrational."

"Well, I'll go back and arrange related things. Presumably, General von Seckert should also be willing to talk to you about the past." Zemal Pasha said. After the two talked about business matters, Zemal Pasha left. Tonight’s banquet in the Sultan’s Palace was still waiting for him. At this time, Kemal was sitting in his study, looking at the wall in the distance. His empire map was plunged into contemplation. In his opinion, the current Ottoman Empire is bleeding everywhere!

"We won the war, but we did not solve the crisis." Kemal sighed. To be honest, the current external environment in Turkey is almost the best in the past 100 years, because the existence of those that once threatened the empire has fallen, such as Russia, France, and the United Kingdom. Or no longer interested in empires, such as Germany and Austria-Hungary.

But ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ domestic contradictions have intensified unprecedentedly, and ethnic and religious contradictions continue to affect the survival of this ancient empire. After all, Turkey is a multi-ethnic country, and the rule of the previous centuries was entirely based on religion and bayonet. But with the awakening of nationalism and the spread of pan-*ism, countries like the Ottoman Empire have become more and more unstable. Kemal knew the direction he should strive for. It is suitable for Turkey to build a new capitalist country that is free from religious control and centered on a secular government. But unfortunately, there are very few people who realize this, and even fewer people support him, and he even dared not say these things publicly!

"This country is unhealthy, and if it is not fundamentally changed, the empire will sooner or later collapse." Kemal murmured. He has foreseen the end of the empire, maybe next year, maybe ten years later, or twenty years later. Sooner or later there will be problems in countries like Turkey. However, he could not stop it, because it is almost impossible to restore the country's vitality through simple improvements on this dilapidated system. Only by completely destroying the original structure and then rebuilding it.

"The Sudan, the government and even the Turkish Youth Party." Kemal took a breath, and seemed to have made a great determination.
