Chapter 1306： Losing the face of Father Kemal (1/2)
, The fastest update to the latest chapters of the Third Reich!
If you are familiar with the history of ancient Rome, you know how brilliant the Roman capital, Byzantium, was once.
Byzantium, now Istanbul, also known as Constantinople, was the capital of late Rome. It stands in the Black Sea Strait.
However, after the establishment of the Republic of Turkey, it moved its capital to Ankara with self-knowledge. Compared to Istanbul, Ankara is an absolute inland city, which means more security.
For example, if the capital of Turkey is still in Istanbul, it is within the absolute bombing range of German bombers and German naval guns. No matter how many shore defense guns they deploy on both sides of the strait, it is useless.
The German fleet is mighty and invincible. Turkey simply does not have the courage to fight the Germans.
Look at the whole of Europe. Look at the 4D flag. Look at the Soviet Union. Now it is being beaten up by the Germans. In every battle, hundreds of thousands of Soviet soldiers will be captured. Within half a month, Minsk will fall. Petersburg was blown to ruins, and the southern German soldiers' peak was close to Kiev.
In this case, who else can stop the German army?
Ankara has begun to tremble. This morning, the sky above Ankara was drizzling, and the entire government building seemed very deserted.
”The Germans are demonstrating to us!” Turkish President Inonu stood up from his chair. Although he was a cowardly president in Turkish history, he was also very angry under such circumstances.
Kemal, the first president of Turkey, was the greatest figure in Turkish history and was known as the father of the Republic of Turkey.
It’s a pity that God is jealous of talent. Kemal died early. He left Turkey three years ago, where he had struggled all his life. After that, his main assistant Ismet Inonu was elected as the second president of Turkey and the People’s Republic of China. Chairman, it is a pity that he is very unfortunate. He just caught up with the outbreak of World War II when he became president.
Inonu didn't have the courage of Kemal. He listened to the preaching of Britain and France, and handed over the chrome ore to Britain and France. Now? The Germans retaliated and arrived so soon.
Compared with other countries, Turkey is even more precarious. Although Kemal has undergone extensive reforms, the reforms are still in progress. After years of war, the national economy has not fully recovered, and it still needs to recuperate.
The most important thing is that Turkey's military equipment and quality are far from being comparable to Germany, and the risk of declaring war with Germany will bring about a national disaster.
Inonu just wanted to remain neutral in World War II. No one would provoke him. It would not be too late to wait until whoever won after the war.
Other countries were in ruins during World War II, but Turkey was recuperated and developed during World War II, and reforms continued to advance and succeeded. In this way, Turkey might be able to restore its former imperial glory.
It now appears that his little abacus has miscalculated, and the Germans are already forcing him to choose.
