The Ottoman Turkish Empire and the German Empire demanded the sharing of the Persian Gulf oil resources. In the eyes of the empire, it was simply a luxury. ∷Now, the oil in the Persian Gulf belongs to the empire completely, and the empire can just take it alone. Why should other countries share it together? The benefits of the empire will not be easily transferred to other countries.

On the afternoon of April 3, 1857, the Imperial Foreign Minister Wei Yuan gave a note to Hassan, the Ambassador of the Ottoman Turkish Empire to China, and Ambassador of the German Empire to China, and Ambassador of Klaus, the Ambassador of the German Empire to China. He formally expressed the empire's attitude to them on the issues raised by the two countries.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor has made a decision on the requirements of the two countries. Unfortunately, His Majesty the Emperor believes that the Empire is fully capable of developing oil in the Persian Gulf alone. Therefore, we are not going to let other countries participate. However, if the Ottoman Turkish Empire and the German Empire need oil, the Empire can supply oil to you both countries at a low price!" said Wei Yuan, the imperial foreign minister. The last one is also to give the Ottoman Turkish Empire and the German Empire a step. Of course, the prerequisite is that they are willing to accept this step.

Sure enough, after hearing the Chinese Empire's reply, Ambassador Hassan and Ambassador Klaus's face suddenly became unfavorable. They did not seem to have expected that when the Ottoman Turkish Empire and the German Empire were united, the Chinese Empire would reject their requests again and again. After all, this was undoubtedly too disregarded by both countries. As for the Chinese Empire, it was not important that the Chinese Empire could sell oil to them at a low price. The Ottoman Turkish Empire had very little demand for oil. At this stage, they did not use too much oil, but they just wanted to use it.

Oil is just to share more benefits. However, the German Empire would not believe that the Chinese Empire would really sell it at low prices. After all, the exploitation and smelting of oil are in the hands of the Chinese Empire, which also means that they have controlled the production and sales of oil. The pricing power is naturally under the control of the Chinese Empire, and they can determine the price at will. However, the German Empire can only passively accept it. What's more serious is that as long as the German Empire and the Chinese Empire are in hostility, they can directly cut off the oil supply to the German Empire. This is the most deadly thing.

"His Excellency Minister of Foreign Affairs, the German Empire is very sincere. Is the Chinese Empire really unwilling to think about it?" Ambassador Klaus also wanted to fight for it. After all, he knew how important oil is. The Chinese Empire began to take off again with the help of the automobile industry, and oil is an indispensable blood for future industry. If the German Empire did not want to be left too far by the Chinese Empire, it must have oil.

"I'm sorry. This is the request of His Majesty the Emperor of the Empire!" Wei Yuan pushed all the responsibility to the Emperor of the Empire. In this case, others could not do anything about it. After all, Emperor of the Empire can now be called the most powerful person in the world.

"His Excellency Foreign Minister, your country will definitely regret today's decision!" Ambassador Hassan said with a cold face.

"Amprovement, are you threatening me again?" Wei Yuan frowned. The threat in Hassan's words was so strong that Wei Yuan was a little doubtful if he had made a mistake in his judgment. Did the Ottoman Turkish Empire really have the courage to break up with the Empire? This seems unlikely!

"No, Mr. Foreign Minister, I did not threaten you. I am just explaining a fact." Hassan said, gritting his teeth.

"Hmph! Your Excellency Ambassador. I hope you understand that the Chinese Empire has the ability to deal with all challenges. Any enemy who provokes the Empire will not have a good end. The Empire hopes that the Ottoman Turkish Empire can make the right choice and not cause catastrophic consequences due to momentary impulse!" Wei Yuan said in a cold tone. He hopes that Ambassador Hassan knows that the Ottoman Turkish Empire has no ability to threaten the Empire at all. The Empire has enough strength to make them pay a huge price, and it is not a problem to destroy them in one fell swoop. The Ottoman Turkish Empire is not qualified to challenge the Empire at all. Any plot will be a farce. And the ultimate harm will be themselves!

Ambassador Hassan was speechless, but from his expression, you can see how unwilling he was.

Klaus, the German Empire ambassador to China, also had almost the same expression and attitude. Obviously, the German Empire was also very dissatisfied with the rejection of the Chinese Empire. However, they had no other way.

The meeting between the imperial foreign minister Wei Yuan, Ambassador Hassan and Ambassador Klaus was a disagreement. Neither ambassador was able to fulfill their attitude of giving them home. It was not that they did not work hard, but that the Chinese Empire was too tough and could not agree to their demands. Therefore, the demands of the two countries were destined to be successful.

Now, the problem facing the Ottoman Turkish Empire and the German Empire is what should they do next? Is it really going to war with the Chinese Empire? They seem to have no courage at all. After all, even if the two countries add up, they may not be able to defeat the Chinese Empire.

"Damn Chinese, those damn yellow-skinned monkeys, they dared to reject our kindness. Allah should really throw all those guys into the resistance!" The speed of the Ottoman Turkish Empire Abdul Maijid I was blown up after learning that the request was completely rejected by the Chinese Empire. Originally, he wanted to take back the Persian Gulf and Iraq. However, because he was afraid of the strong military strength of the Chinese Empire, he had to give up. However, he was unwilling to give up the oil resources in the Persian Gulf, so he took a compromise solution. But unexpectedly, he still failed. The Chinese Empire resolutely refused the request of the Ottoman Turkish Empire, and had no room for negotiation.

In the view of Abdul Maijid I, the Chinese Empire did not give face to the Ottoman Turkish Empire, regardless of the friendship between the two countries. After all, the two countries are all ally! He and the emperor of the Chinese Empire have just become son-in-law. Especially the Persian Gulf and Iraq were still transferred to the Chinese Empire. However, the Chinese Empire completely turned against each other. This is so infuriating.

"Hussein Pasha, prepare for the army. Since the Chinese do not give us face, we don't have to care. Just tear them apart!" Abdul Maijid said angrily.

"Your Majesty, please think twice! Now is not the time to break up with the Chinese Empire. If we send troops to attack the Persian Gulf, we will go to full war with the Chinese Empire!" Chief Pasha Ali said quickly.

"The empire has millions of elite troops, and we have defeated even our old enemy, the Russians. Are we still afraid of the Chinese?" Abdul Maijid said angrily.

"Your Majesty, half of our current army is deployed in the Ukrainian plains and the Balkans. The locals are resisting our rule and must deploy heavy troops. In addition, Libya and Tunisia still need stability to avoid a second Egypt. We have deployed 200,000 troops in those two places. Excluding the troops deployed in other regions, we can draw troops to attack the Persian Gulf, at most 100,000 troops. The Chinese already have 40,000 elite troops in the Persian Gulf. If attacked, they can send troops from Central Asia or Eastern Europe to the Persian Gulf at the first time, or from the sea to the country. We really don't have much chance of winning! What's more, our navy has not yet formed combat power, and once the war begins, there is no chance of winning. Therefore, this stage is definitely not the best time to go to war with the Chinese Empire!" Hussein Pasha also said.

"Damn it, are we going to let go of it like this? We must make them repay the insults of the Chinese to us thousands of times!" Abdul Maijid roared.

"Your Majesty, we can only hold back this breath now and find another chance in the future." Mustafa Lester Pasha also said.

Under the persuasion of the ministers, Abdul Maijid I finally suppressed the anger in his heart.

At this time, military control reported that a large number of Chinese Navy warships appeared in the central Aegean Sea. The Chinese Navy claimed that it would conduct a live-fire exercise there.

Suddenly, after learning the news, Abdul Maijid was so angry that he shivered all over. All fools knew that this was a threat from the Chinese Empire to them! If they dared to act rashly, the Chinese Navy that appeared on the sea of ​​love would attack them.

"Can we defeat those damn yellow-skinned monkeys? They only came four battleships, and we have five!" Abdul Maijid I looked at Hussein Pasha with hope.

"Your Majesty, although the Chinese have only received four battleships. However, those four battleships are all ‘Eastern Han-class’ battleships, not only tonnage but also firepower, but are stronger than the ‘Western Han-class’ battleships and ‘Qin-class’ battleships sold to us by the Chinese. What's more, our naval officers and soldiers have not yet been able to fully grasp the performance of the battleships. Once the war begins, we will not have the slightest chance of winning!" Hussein Pasha said.

"Damn it! Those damn yellow-skinned monkeys!" Abdul Maijid cursed angrily. He knew that now he could only watch the Chinese navy show its power, and they had no way to fight back.

Under the military oppression of the Chinese Empire, the Ottoman Turkish Empire no longer made unreasonable demands, but this also caused a rift in the relationship between the two countries, and the Ottoman Turkish Empire gradually turned to the German Empire.
