"These Ottoman bastards."

There was an angry roar in the crown prince's office, and the guards outside the door all looked at each other, wondering how the Ottoman Empire provoked His Royal Highness the crown prince and made him so angry.

Edel had reason to be angry, and in his office, he slapped the latest telegram on the Ottoman situation on his desk.

Seeing Edel furious, Calust, the chief of the guard, who had brought the telegram in, comforted him. "Your Highness, even if there is a coup d'état, the Ottomans will not make much difference, their Asian army is worse than the annihilated in Europe, and they will not be the opponent of the Balkan countries."

Seeing that the chief guard would be mistaken, Edel still spoke not too calmly. "I believe that the strength of the Balkan countries will be victorious, but who will pay for the economic losses of our Romania. Now we can't go by sea, the cost is going to be much higher, and we have two ships seized by the Ottomans. ”

The two Romanian ships Eder was referring to were freighters belonging to two shipping companies, a bulk carrier called the Crook, which carried about 6,000 tons of grain. A car carrier called the Biak, with five levels of transport space, transports 1,087 cars. Now both ships have been seized by the Ottomans as they pass through the Bosphorus and Dardanelles. Fortunately, however, the concern for Romania may have been a simple seizure, and the two ships and cargo were not confiscated. If the goods and ships were confiscated, Romania would lose six or seven million lei. If it was confiscated like this, Eder would have to consider whether to send some troops to teach the Ottomans a lesson.

Calust did not expect that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was concerned about the economy of Romania, and that he was concerned about the situation in the Balkan War. However, this is also related to Romania's interests in this war, there are only so many interests, and it is not compatible with the Ottomans, plus the benefits that should be taken have been negotiated, so it is reasonable for the crown prince not to care about the situation, anyway, the Ottoman army will not be able to turn the sky.

As he expected, after the Ottoman al-Shabaab d'état, their party leader, Enver, became chief of the general staff of the Ottoman army.

On 3 February, with the help of General Otto Liman von Sanders, the head of the German advisory group, he launched an attack on the Bulgarian line with the Ottoman Asian troops arriving one after another. In the end, the Bulgarian army withstood the Ottoman attack with high morale, relatively advanced weapons, and complete fortifications. And the Bulgarian army, relying on the fortifications, killed and wounded a large number of the Ottoman troops.

Since the Ottomans still did not give up, the Balkan countries were also not welcome. On 5 March, the Greek army captured Yanina. On 26 March, the Bulgarian and Serbian forces captured Adriaplude. On 22 April, the Ottoman army surrendered in Shkodex.

Among them, the fall of Adrianople was the biggest blow to the Ottoman Empire. After the war broke out again, the encircled Bulgarian 2nd Army and Serbian reinforcements under the general command of General Nikolai Ivanov launched an attack on Adriaplude. The final battle consisted of two night raids. Combat readiness consisted of uniforms and all metal parts of the weapon with paper towels to eliminate any light or noise. Several armies participating in the siege were jointly commanded, creating a prototype of the front. Some light artillery towed by horses followed the advancing troops, acting as infantry support. An attempt was made to disrupt all Ottoman radio communications in order to isolate and thwart the besieged people.

From March 24, 1913, the external fortifications were breached one night, and the fort itself fell into Bulgarian hands the next night. In the early morning of March 26, 1913, the commander of the fort, Mehmed Sukllypasha, surrendered to the Serbian army, thus ending the siege of Adrianople.

After the surrender, most of the city, especially *** and Jewish houses, were robbed for three days. However, it is debatable who actually carried out the robbery; Some blamed the Bulgarian army for looting, others blamed it from local Greeks. Turkish prisoners of war were treated severely, some of them killed. According to the report after the fact, two ?? The main accusations: they committed great cruelty and cruelty against Ottoman prisoners of war; The Bulgarian authorities allowed the plundering of the property of the Turks inside Adrianople within three days after the surrender of the city.

The achievements of the Bulgarians at this point have been fairly summed up by the British war correspondents: "A country with a population of less than five million and a military budget of less than two million pounds was placed in the field within fourteen days of the mobilization of the army in four weeks' time, which moved more than 160 miles through enemy territory, captured one fortress and stormed another, fought and won two great battles with the armed forces of the country of twenty million inhabitants, at the gates of the hostile capital, in addition to the Japanese and Gurkhas, The Bulgarians of all units fought with the fixed intention of killing at least one enemy. "There were a large number of journalists covering the siege of Adrianople, and their reports provided a wealth of detail about the event

The victorious end of the siege was considered a great military success, as the city's fortifications were carefully developed by leading German siege specialists and were called "invincible". After a 5-month siege and two daring night raids, the Bulgarian army captured the Ottoman stronghold.

During the siege, bombers were used early by one aircraft: the Bulgarians threw specially made grenades from one or more planes in order to cause panic among the Turkish soldiers. Many of the young Bulgarian officers and professionals who participated in the decisive battles of the First Balkan War later played important roles in Bulgaria's political, cultural, commercial and industrial circles.

The Ottomans were again defeated in the war, and after the surrender of the Ottoman forces in Shkodra on 23 April, they once requested an armistice to the Balkan Confederation countries. The European powers also demanded an armistice, with Russia reacting the strongest. They did not want the Balkan League to take Constantinople, which was vital to him, a long-cherished wish of the Russian tsars for many years, and it was clear that Nicholas II wanted to do it in his own hands.

Faced with this situation, the Balkan countries also tried to strengthen their defenses in Istanbul, but obviously they could not get it, so they agreed to the request of the Ottoman Empire.

They met again in London after a lapse of three months, but this time the Ottomans were no longer in the mood to reject the terms of the Balkan Alliance.
