The Crescent of the Sultan

Chapter 153 I’m not bad either



To the Great Sultan of the Ottoman Empire and all the Ottoman Pashas:

“With a lofty vision and a mission to pursue justice, I write this letter to call on the great Sultan of the Ottoman Empire to lead us to help the Safavid dynasty of Persia recover.

Persia, once a glorious country, now fell into a dark moment.

My country is divided into three, teetering on the edge of external hostility and internal turmoil.

My people are in deep distress and pain, but I am powerless to save them.

At such a time, I was full of hope and expectation for assistance from the Ottoman Empire.

You are our brothers and neighbors, you are a great and powerful empire, famous for the wisdom and courage of your countless warriors and wise men.

We appeal to you for your help to help us restore the glory and dignity of Persia with common purpose and united action.

The historical ties between Persia and the Ottoman Empire are deep and complex, we share the same culture, religion and values, and there are deep bonds between our countries and peoples.

We extend a brotherly hand to you, hoping to share with you our goals and pursuits. Only through our unity and cooperation can we escape oppression and danger and rebuild our dynasty and country.

Lord Sultan, we believe that you are a far-sighted and world-minded leader.

Your empire is filled with hopes and dreams, your armies are invincible, and your wise men are wise and wise. We ask for your aid, your wisdom and strength, to help us rebuild the prosperity and dynastic unity of Persia.

We hope that the Ottoman Empire will send troops and experts to assist us and restore Persian independence and sovereignty.

We need your support to help us defeat these separatists, defend our homeland and people, and restore the glory of Persia.

Your Majesty the Sultan, our request is sincere and urgent. We, the Persian people, express our reverence and gratitude to you, and we are convinced that the Ottoman Empire will be our bulwark against the storm.

We believe that with your help we will rebuild Persia and make it a great and prosperous nation once again.

Let us welcome the future together and build a strong and harmonious Islamic world with unity and strength. Let us stand on the pinnacle of victory together. Let us leave a splendid and glorious inheritance to future generations. The Ottoman Empire and the Persian Safavids The union of dynasties will become an eternal and glorious history.

May Allah bless the Ottoman Empire and Persia.

I give you my highest respect. "

Yours faithfully

Ismaili-Safi

Looking at this petition letter, Selim couldn't help but sigh that this so-called Safavid descendant is indeed a talent, and his writing is really good.

But, my return here is pretty good.

"To the rulers of the Qajar dynasty:

I, the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire, write this notice with strong anger and dissatisfaction.

As a member of the Qajar family in Persia, you should know the history and greatness of the Safavid dynasty.

Yet you have chosen to divide this country and deprive the Persian people of peace and dignity.

You have torn the historical ties between Persia and the Ottoman Empire.

This provocation and displacement of the Safavid dynasty of Persia is inexcusable.

The Ottoman Empire was the protector and defender of the Islamic world. We are always ready to fight for justice and truth.

We care deeply about the survival of the Safavid dynasty, and we are determined to return Persia to its glory and allow the Persian people to enjoy the dignity and prosperity they deserve.

We have received a request from the Safavid dynasty, who are seeking our help and support.

As one of the most powerful empires in the Islamic world, we will not tolerate the presence of invaders and oppressors.

We will stand with the Persian people and restore the glory and dignity of Persia. This is our obligation and mission.

Muhammad Qajar, your divisive actions will only bring destruction to Persia.

I appeal to you not to evade justice, not to continue to succumb to your own ambitions, and to accept our notice and return the throne of Persia to the Safavid dynasty.

Otherwise, you will pay a heavy price.

Muhammad Qajar, I urge you to reconsider your actions and join me in contributing to the peace and prosperity of Persia.

Otherwise, I will crush your resistance with decisive perseverance and strength.

I will continue to support the efforts of the Safavid dynasty of Persia and fight to restore the glory of Persia.

I promise that I will help them restore the unity of their dynasty and the independence of their country. No force can stop us from moving forward.

Muhammad-Qajar dynasty, hear my cry.

This is your last chance to change your path and abandon the idea of ​​dividing Persia in favor of justice and freedom.

Otherwise, we will destroy your power mercilessly and make you pay a heavy price for your betrayal.

The Ottoman Empire will defeat all enemies and fight for our beliefs and values.

We look forward to a liberated and bright future for the Persian people.

sincere regards.

Selim-Osmanoglu

Humming a little tune, Emperor Sai stuck his head out of the carriage.

His army had already set off from Constantiniya. Considering the logistics and transportation and the security of the capital, there were not many people on his journey, only 15,000.

After all, the distance from Constantiniya to the Arabian Peninsula is still too far. The long march route and backward transportation methods will increase the logistics cost of this expedition, which Selim does not want to see.

Even the military rations for these 15,000 people were not all transported from Constantiniya. After all, people eating horse chews still consumed a lot of money.

Therefore, Haji Pasha's plan is that the part from the capital to the Cilicia region will be supplied by Constantiniya. After arriving in the Cilicia region, there will be a fleet from Thessaloniki. Transport the food here, and as for the subsequent food, you have to find the Kurds.

The other two groups were Muhammad Ali's troops and Arundar Mustafa's troops.

The former was composed of the remaining troops of the Sipaxi cavalry and the private soldiers recruited by Muhammad Ali from wealthy families in Syria, totaling more than 20,000 people. The latter was a new army trained in Egypt before Haji Pasha left office.

These two groups have not yet been dispatched, because the troops of Emperor Cyril have only arrived in the Kurdish region.

As for why he walked so slowly, of course it was to give his opponent some time to prepare.

Aladdin Pasha, the former Commander-in-Chief of the Guards who fled to Russia, an Armenian who liked to cause trouble, a veteran of stabbing people in the back, and many emirates of the Qajar dynasty and Kurds who were notified by the Ottoman Empire.

From the time the British tried to use the ambassador's channel to test, Selim knew that it was impossible to solve the problem of the Arabian Peninsula without blood, and even the Kurdish region could not use force.

So, take your time. He is in no hurry anyway. The Kurdish region has already contacted many filial children who are trying to take away the positions of their brothers and fathers.

As for other places? That's not a place that can be arranged in advance. Emperor Sai is not the America of later generations, and his hands are not long.
