Chapter 357 Zhenwudu Eight (April Fool's Day is not happy!)(1/2)

Subtitle of this chapter: Yuan Yanshu, a friend of the Qing Dynasty, was born in the Qing Dynasty.

Author's note: This chapter is not about death but about history!

…………………………………………………

Speaking of Raphael de Nogales, who was happy when he heard about the war, naturally decided to join the war immediately when he heard that a huge war broke out in Europe.

He jumped onto the earliest ship and came to Europa.

Such a former revolutionary must have helped the weak, so he ran to the weakest Belgium and demanded to join the Belgian army.

Belgium was on the verge of destruction at that time. But they still said, "We are not short of people, go to France to ask."

He went to France again, and the French told him that he could join the foreign legion. But Nojares thought he was a noble volunteer and was not a mercenary for money, so he wanted to be a regular French army. The French side brutally rejected him.

Nojales is really a "war addict". He refused to give up after being rejected for two bowls, so he began... looking at the map!

As a result, he really found on the map that there was another country in the Allies that was even weaker than Belgium, which was already very weaker, that was the Kingdom of Montenegro in the southwest of the Balkans.

Since the mid-17th century, Montenegro was ruled by a Serbian family called Petrovi?-Njego?.

In 1910, Nikola Petrovic Negosh announced the founding of the Kingdom of Montenegro, and he became Nicholas I.

Unfortunately, in 1918, this short-lived kingdom was incorporated into the Kingdom of Serbia-Croatia-Slovenia, which was the future Kingdom of Yugoslavia, and the predecessor of the Federation of Yugoslavia.

In fact, Nicholas I himself was a great Serbian and had always wanted to establish a great Serbian country dominated by all Serbians.

Therefore, Montenegro has traditionally been very close to Serbia, and when World War I broke out, it followed Serbia to join the Allies.

Nojales felt that Montenegro must be short of people, so he went there. Unexpectedly, Montenegro arrested him as a spy, and finally realized that he was an international volunteer.

Montenegro naturally would not accept him, but Nicholas I thought this guy was quite interesting... Nonsense, wouldn't it be interesting for those who volunteered to travel from Latin America to Europe to fight war, so I took him to a diplomatic cocktail party.

At the cocktail party, he met the Russian ambassador. The ambassador was not very authentic and teased him to ask him to try it in Japan.

Nojales must have no money to go to Japan... If you have money, you probably won't go to Japan... If you go to Japan, you probably won't be able to join the army... If you can join the army, you probably won't be able to fight.

Perhaps because of this, he was humiliated by the Allies repeatedly, and left Montenegro and went to the Bulgaria Kingdom next to him.

Although Bulgaria had not yet joined the Allies in 1914, Europeans knew that Bulgaria would sooner or later stand in the rivals of Serbia and Montenegro.

This is because during the Second Balkan War in 1913, Bulgaria was originally supported by the German Empire and the Austro-Hungarian Empire. However, these two big brothers slapped their chests, but the actual support was pitifully small. Therefore, Bulgaria was defeated by the coalition forces of Greece, Romania, Serbia and Montenegro, which were supported by Britain and Russia.

These countries signed the "Bucharest Peace Treaty", and Bulgaria was forced to agree to the partition of Macedonia by Serbia and Greece. It also ceded most of Thrace to Greece, and Dobrokia in the south and north to Romania, and even Montenegro received a little reward.

How could the Bulgarians not go back if they take revenge?

As the saying goes, a tree moves to die, and a person moves to live.

After running to the territory of the Allies, the war addict really got the opportunity to join the war.

He met an Ottoman Turkish diplomat who said that we, Nagada, were eager to be talented and needed a heroic knight like him who had the spirit of Internaxonalism.

So he, a natural Catholic, and a former revolutionary with a strong root, became a green cavalry who was loyal to the Sultan and the Caliph!

"Dr. Yuan, how is this possible?"

"Gentlemen, you are really naive. The world is so great. Since we Chinese can kidnap the British and Japanese crown princes in London and bring them to Ireland, what is impossible for a South American revolutionary to join the Ottoman Turkish cavalry? After all, for our hero, whether it is an Allies or an Allies, as long as there is a war, is it enough?"

"Dr. Yuan, then do you admit that the person who kidnapped the two crown princes is your compatriots?"

"Mr. Penguin, if you don't need to mess with me, I really hope it was done by my compatriots... Please don't interrupt me and continue recording."

Nojares, a war addict, really caught up with a good time. In early 1915, he received combat missions as soon as he joined the Turkish army.

He was sent to Erzurum, east of the Anatolian Plateau.

The word Erzurum comes from Persian, meaning "a place for the Romans". This is the largest city and military fortress in the mountainous areas in eastern Turkey. This shows that this place was originally the territory of the ancient Roman Empire, and it is located on the traditional Silk Road and has always been a battleground for military strategists.

But the city's main inhabitants for a long time were Armenians.

Ah, what did he do there?

Oh, he was going to "suppress" the "great uprising" of the Armenians.

Well, this is the not so famous Armenian massacre in history.

Among the "Flock of the World's Ethnic Group", Armenia is not very lucky, but the half-dead and miserable Coptis chinensis tree that finally survived.

They are unlucky. They are located in the southern part of the Caucasus Mountains, which is the crossroads of human civilization.

Throughout history, Greeks, Persians, Romans, Byzantines, Mongolians, Turks, Russians would step on them when they passed by from east to west or from west to east.

The ancient nation of Fangsheng was very tenacious in its beliefs. Even after being occupied by the Alabo people, they did not convert to Allah... That ANLA. So they have always been second-class citizens of the Ottoman Turkish Empire... they should be said to be subjects.

After the Seventh Russian-Turkish War in the early 19th century, Tsarist Russia bought East Armenia (literally, it really paid for it), and West Armenia was still controlled by the Turks.

No matter what, Armenia and Russia both believe in Orthodox religion, so a large number of Armenians migrated to the east. This deepened the Turks' vigilance against Armenians.

You know, how gentle and friendly people who converted to ANLA were. And at this time, Turkish nationalism also emerged. The "Youth Turkish Party" composed of young officers began to rule after 1909, proclaiming to "completely solve the problems of Armenia and other minorities."

In fact, they want to build a "pure" Turkish nation-state through such means.

Forgive the nationalism of sex, what a combination of listening.

From 1915 to 1923, I read that right, it was indeed 1923 that the massacre of the Armenians took place for eight years.

During this period, the number of victims was as small as one million and as many as one million. The Encyclopedia Britannia admitted that between 1915 and 1916, 600,000 Armenians were massacred.

Of course, compared to the number of people who died in the War of Resistance against Japan and the number of Russians who died in the War of Patriotic Patriotic War, this number is nothing.

However, however, before that, the book number of Armenians in Turkey was only 2.4 million, and some people estimate that due to inaccurate statistics, it is actually less than 1.8 million.

In short, after 1925, only half a million Armenians were left.

When Nojales was still on the road, he heard someone shouting to the marching troops that they were already killing people and they couldn't catch up if they were too late!

They were really a little late. Before they arrived at their destination, they found that the massacre had begun. The massacre was not only targeted at Armenians, but at all Christians.

Along the way, people were gone and the house was empty. He didn't know that the Turks had taken the most cruel measures. All men over ten years old were executed on the spot, women who could be sold were sold, and the rest were "exiled" to Syria.

In fact, the remaining old and weak had no supplies or even their clothes were peeled off, and they rushed into the desert. This was a more cruel execution than the execution on the spot!

One day, Nojales saw a bishop being dragged away to the crowd. The bishop also clearly saw him and recognized him as a Christian in military uniform, so he kept staring at him.

Only then did he discover something even more terrible, and the soldiers who carried out the massacre also stared at him.

Even if he is a war addict, he can't stand this kind of scene. As soon as he finds an opportunity, he will immediately report to the Ottoman War Department to apply for retirement.

Just like Belgium, France, and Montenegro refused his application for enlistment without hesitation, the Ottoman Empire rejected the application for resignation without hesitation...

Hearing this, the Penguin couldn't help frowning and asked, "Wait a minute, Dr. Yuan. Are you really going to make this movie?"

“Why Not?”

Our Master Yuan compared a cigarette gesture to the recorder and replied casually.

The torture expert asked curiously: "Dr. Yuan, do you think anyone would watch such a movie?"

"Hehe..." Yuan Yan, who lit a cigarette, couldn't help laughing when she heard this.

He raised his thumb and gestured to the outside and asked, "Mr. Penguin, is it popular in "The Lonely Girl in the Famine" in Ireland now?"

"Well..." The torture expert nodded helplessly.

Even the British present could not deny that "The Lonely of Famine" has become a so-called "phenomenon" movie in Ireland.

How "phenomenon" is it?

Since the release on Saturday night, several Irish people have died of sudden illness because they were too sad and angry when watching this movie, and may have suffered from a sudden illness due to too many viewers.

This made various screening venues have to invite doctors to stay in the venue.

The Sinn Fein and the IRA have risen in popularity because of this movie. They don’t care much about the movie income because they both get a lot of extra income. Many viewers go out of the cinema and go directly to their offices to donate.

Especially with radicals like Valera's voice, the negotiations between Britain and Ireland have just begun to be a little unsuccessful.

This is also one of the reasons why Winston Churchill is determined to cause trouble for our Master Yuan.

However, the torture expert immediately shook his head and said, "But even as an outsider, I know, these two movies are different. Because..."

"Because the Armenians' voices are too small, right?" Yuan Yan interrupted in a sarcastic tone.

"Gentlemen, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if you can't make money."

"As an artist, I don't care much about money, but about artistic effects, and..."

Our Master Yuan poked his chest hard with his fingers and said, "My conscience!"

"Even if this movie can't afford to wear my pants, I still have to shoot it. Because I have the deepest sympathy for what happened to the Armenian people."

Our Master Yuan did not lie, he really sympathized with the Armenians.

Compared with the above-mentioned China and Russia. Even though the free world is very, very, very disliked the red or non-red Seris and Russia, as allies standing together during World War II, they cannot deny the heinous crimes committed by Nazi Germany and Japanese militarism.

However, the Turks refused to admit their convictions. Even a hundred years later, they only admitted that there were only tens of thousands of Armenians at that time (the official statement of death numbers was different), and claimed that it was caused by hunger and disease when they were exiled to Syria (the vassal state of the Ottomans at that time).

So much so that Himmler was later asked what would the Jews be treated by later generations when he said that the more than one million people killed in Armenia were almost forgotten after just over a decade. When we purge the Jews now, our descendants will thank us.

The Europa can forget the tragedy that happened in the world where "it is only five days away from Paris". Yuan Yanshu, the Seris, will not forget it. He also reminds the people of the world, including Europeans, not to forget this history.

Of course, he hated those tyrants more than his sympathy for the Armenians who had nothing to do with him.

Although they are not so annoying now, as a time traveler who has returned from the downstream of history, Yuan Yan suddenly knows how annoying those people are.
To be continued...
