On June 12, 1875, Ferdinand I of Austria died of illness in Jerusalem. In accordance with his last wishes, Franz held a state funeral in Jerusalem.

Ferdinand I did not have a strong presence in Austria, did not make any outstanding contributions in his life, and of course did not have any notoriety, leaving everyone with the image of a "good old man".

The funeral was a grand event, the guests were ready-made, Franz's coronation had just been completed, and everyone was still touring the places of interest in Jerusalem.

Of course, this is just a polite remark, in fact Jerusalem is a big construction site, and the buildings in the city are being remodeled according to the will of the Holy See, and there is nothing to see.

The truth is that Franz sent someone to inform everyone that the European aristocracy is a family, and everyone near or far is a relative, and it is natural that they can't help but give face when they come.

Ferdinand I was not a proper monarch, a disgrace in the eyes of the older Habsburgs, but a qualified elder in the eyes of the younger generation, and the atmosphere at the funeral was very heavy.

Affected by the sad atmosphere, after a funeral, Franz was not well. Without the slightest hesitation, the order was given to return to Vienna.

No one can persuade them, July is just around the corner, and staying in Jerusalem during this season is a disaster.

Whoever wants to stay here to cultivate his life, then it is better to stay by himself, anyway, Franz is not to accompany him.

In the end, the Queen Mother Sufi, the family of three of Massimiliano I, and several members of the side family remained, and Franz returned with the rest.

This was the result of Franz's efforts to forcibly order his two younger brothers back. In these years, aristocratic communication is also an important job, and no one in the royal family can do it.

In addition to this, Franz was also worried about history repeating itself. One of the two people in the original time and space was unlucky enough to drink the water of the Jordan River and get sick while on a pilgrimage.

Now the few who are left are different, they all have the attribute of a dead house, they can stay at home all the time without going out, and they won't run around at all.

……

In Ankara, the situation in the Ottoman country has improved a lot since the completion of the diversion of the troubles to the east, and social order is gradually being restored.

Despite stabilizing social order, the al-Shabaab government headed by Midhart was condemned by all sectors of society.

The cannonballs have come up with countless reasons to criticize the government for being brutal, corrupt, incompetent, and bloody......

Sultan Abdul Hamid II has also spoken out on several public occasions, criticizing the government for its serious negligence in dealing with the refugee issue.

These changes left the Ottoman al-Shabaab, which lacked experience in political struggle, scrambling and not knowing how to deal with it for a while.

Foreign Secretary Albiacchi: "Prime Minister, the Russians expelled all the refugees by force, and about five thousand died under the butcher's knife of the tsarist army.

This was a diplomatic note from the tsarist government, in which the Russians ordered us to restore the situation immediately and threatened to intervene by force. ”

Taking the paper, Midhart sighed. Normally, he would have been furious when he heard that the Russians had slaughtered so many Ottoman people, but now it was just a number in his ears.

Weak countries have no diplomacy, and if these people die, they will die in vain, and it is impossible for the Ottoman Empire to hold the tsarist government accountable for this.

After a long silence, Midhart said slowly: "Since the Russian Empire can't go, let's send it all to Persia!" ”

After a pause, he added: "Is there any trouble on the Austrian side, is the Vienna government accepting refugees?" ”

It's not that Midhardt is hard-hearted, he is completely forced out by reality. There is a shortage of food in the country, and people are destined to starve to death.

If refugees are allowed to stay in the country, many areas that have resumed production will also be destroyed, and more people will starve to death.

In order to keep more people, he had to be ruthless. There is also a precondition for this, that is, there is no interference from the Great Powers, especially Austria.

Foreign Secretary Albiac: "No, the Austrians arrested all the refugees for illegal entry, put them together for trial, and sent them to prison. ”

The law does not blame the public, which may be feasible in the future generations with the rise of Maryism, but there is no market in this era. The Vienna government acted according to the law, and no one could pick out the thorns.

Midhart stopped talking, the result was bad, but it wasn't unacceptable. With the precedent of the Russians in mind, Midhardt's expectations were lowered from the start.

……

At this time, the situation in Persia also changed. Watching the snowballing of refugees, the expectation of international intervention, and the inability of countries to agree on their views under the interference of the British, the Persian government realized the danger.

Persia was an agrarian country with limited productivity and could not afford to accommodate so many refugees. Even simple relief is beyond their means.

The Persians also hated these locust-like uninvited guests. Let them give money and food to help these people, but they are unwilling from the bottom of their hearts.

After repeated warnings to no avail, the Persian government once again showed the world the sharpness of the "Persian Blade", and the massacre began.

It's not right or wrong, everyone is fighting for survival. If refugees want to survive and need more food, they have to grab it; And the Persian government needs to protect the lives and property of the people, so it can only kill these uninvited guests.

Just as Franz was returning, the most brutal scene was played out in Persia, and the two sides were bloodied.

There was no surprise that the rabble was destined to defeat the regular army, even with the Ottoman government in charge.

However, the Persians, as the victors, did not have a good time, hesitated that the Persian army did not leave prisoners, cut off the back route for the refugees to surrender, and the battle was particularly fierce.

That's it, it's just a little bit bigger. The most troublesome thing is that there are too many refugees, and it is easy to defeat them, but it is difficult to annihilate them all.

Even though the Persian army was on high alert, there were still many waves of refugees flowing to the rear, causing unrest in the Persian region.

Under the power of hatred, these refugees have been detached into outlaws, burning, looting, and committing all kinds of evil along the way, and the atrocities have put the bandits and robbers to shame.

According to incomplete statistics, the total population of Persia fell by 1.5 million after the war, and the total economic output fell by a quarter, and the loss can be imagined.

……

The tragedy in Persia soon spread across the European continent, and the impact was far less serious than Franz had thought, and the vast majority of the European people were melon-eating people.

In this era, both the Ottomans and the Persians belonged to races without human rights, and the mainstream society did not regard them as the same thing at all.

Except for a few Notre Dame who are shouting for relief from European countries, most of the population is watching from the sidelines. I still can't eat enough, who can take care of others?

In order to eat three meals a day, most workers have to work hard in the factory for more than ten hours a day, not daring to get sick or take vacations, and the remuneration they get is only to make ends meet.

What kind of joke is it to let the government pay for the relief of Ottoman refugees? There are still a large number of people in need of relief in the country, and the government can't help it, so they dare to give money to the enemy, which is naked treason!

Our Lady did not toss a few waves, and was drowned out by the overwhelming onslaught. The Ottoman Empire has only been in decline for a long time, and it is difficult for everyone to forget the hatred in less than 180 years.

London

As one of the chief directors of the tragedy, Prime Minister Gelston was pleased with the development of the situation. Although the casualties were a little larger, it was all worth it.

With the loss of so many people at one time, the internal contradictions of the Ottoman Empire have been greatly eased, and this nail that holds Austria back is finally saved.

The devastation of refugees in Persia created an opportunity for the British to invade Persia, killing two birds with one stone.

Foreign Secretary McClean: "Your Excellency, this is a diplomatic note from the Ottoman government, and they want us to keep our promise to provide them with a counterinsurgency fund.

As things stand, the biggest crisis of the Ottoman Empire has passed, and the risk of lending to them has been greatly reduced.

However, it is not certain that the Persians are now massacring refugees. In order to survive, these people will most likely return to the Ottoman Empire again.

Perhaps this number will be greatly reduced, but as soon as a third of them return, the Ottoman government will soon be in trouble again.

And after this experience, these surviving refugees may not be able to live in peace. Essentially, these people have learned badly and are not fit to be obedient people. ”

Prime Minister Gelston nodded: "This is an inevitable result, but on the whole, the situation in the Ottoman Empire has improved."

These refugees, who have become mobs, let the Ottoman government dispose of them themselves! It doesn't matter to us whether we dispose of it or discipline it strictly.

In any case, they also helped to inflict heavy losses on the Persians, and they were our friends, and Britain never treated their friends badly.

As long as we are sure that the Ottoman government is stable and has the ability to pay its debts, we can give them loans.

The Foreign Ministry can communicate with the French that we cannot support a nail to contain Austria, and we cannot contribute to everything.

If the French were willing to contribute, then the training of the Ottoman army could be handed over to them. ”
