War Palace and Knee Pillow, Austria’s Destiny

Just when Franz was still thinking about the next colonial plan of the Austrian Empire.

The British, unwilling to be left alone, took action again. They did not give up the plan for a Jewish state. Although the Ottoman Sultan Mejid was reluctant, they still sold large tracts of land in Syria and near Jerusalem to the Jews at a very low price.

Deliberately exaggerated by the British and a group of Zionists, the land of Syria was described as a promised land full of gold and milk.

Even the Russian newspaper, which hates Jews the most, published this news, but they gave too much. In addition, almost all European newspapers in Austria, France, Germany, and Spain reported the same news one after another.

When Jews in various European countries saw the news in the newspapers, they were overjoyed and moved their families. At first, politicians from various countries were worried whether the Jews would take their wealth with them if they left, and whether stores would close on a large scale, leading to an economic depression.

As a result, the stock prices of many countries fell, and Franz decided to buy the bottom, but he was not the only one who sensed the opportunity. Franz soon discovered that the major financial groups were also busy buying at the bottom, and the most aggressive ones were the Jews.

Solomon Rothschild has been silent for a long time. He saw the opportunity and decided to silently buy the bottom. At this time, he just wanted to make a fortune quietly and did not want to continue to provoke the Austrian royal family.

In fact, there is a question in Solomon's mind that he has never understood. Does the Habsburg royal family really regard him as an opponent? Otherwise, why would they target him everywhere? If they regard him as an opponent, then why don't they beat him up?

Solomon hid in a luxury suite at the Stephanie Hotel, and had been watching the stock market transactions with trepidation. Until he got reliable news: the royal family began to buy at the bottom. He took a deep breath and invested a large amount of money in the stock market.

As the Jews left, a large number of shops were put up for sale. But what people didn't expect was that the expected panic did not spread. Instead, a large number of nobles, elites, and small businessmen were frantically buying.

Not only the shops, but also the markets they vacated, even the gangsters and killers were very busy.

In order to build momentum for the Jewish state, Britain even sent battleships from the Mediterranean Fleet to escort the Jews returning to Syria.

Soon the first batch, about 12,000 Jews, returned to the place where their ancestors had lived. At this time, Israel had just experienced war and was devastated, looking like it was in dire straits.

Since the wealthy businessmen and dignitaries had already bought this land from the Ottoman Empire, the first thing the Jews did when they arrived in Israel was to hire some tribes that were easier to control and begin to expel the local tribes that were unwilling to leave.

In a short period of time, they established schools, hospitals, their own government, and even an army to defend the land.

However, there is still an absolute gap between the number of Jews and the number of local people. The Armenian Genocide that should have occurred during the same period did not occur.

The Armenian sheep ate the Ottoman crops and were let go after being paid a severe beating.

Several influential Ottoman orders focused their experience on dealing with Israel, and they sent capable officers to infiltrate there. Among them, the leader of the Safavid Order, the Lord of All Changes, personally took action and vowed to drive the evil pagans out of their sacred territory.

In the Ottoman Palace, Magid was enjoying the sun and rain in the flower hall, when suddenly a gloomy voice came from behind.

"Your Majesty, I would like to see Gurhat."

Gurhat's voice made people feel uncomfortable. Magid pushed the beauty in his arms away and threw away the half piece of rose cake that was left in his hand.

"Everyone go down"

At this time, there was a concubine who was ignorant of current affairs and tried to act coquettishly with Magid.

"Your Majesty~~"

"Bury her." Magid's tone was indifferent, as if he was talking about something insignificant.

Only then did the concubine realize the seriousness of the problem and immediately started shouting.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me, I am your favorite Mayem!"

"Shut her up." Magid ordered the palace steward.

The old manager was very experienced and took out an object from his inner pocket and stuffed it into Mayem's mouth, so that the other party could no longer scream.

After that, the two eunuchs dragged the concubine away, and the other concubines and cooks were so frightened that they immediately fled the flower hall.

Finally, there were only two eunuch guards, the palace steward, Magid, and Gurhat left in the entire flower hall.

Gurhat is the spymaster under Magid. Even at noon, his body is still hidden in his hood, making it impossible to see his figure clearly.

"What's the matter?" Magid held his forehead. This spymaster was quite capable, but he rarely brought good news. This time should be no exception. It would probably give him a headache.

"The Order has taken action. They are going to do something big in Israel."

"What big thing can these old stubborn people do?" Magid said.

"The leader of the cult will sacrifice 10,000 heretics and deprive them of everything." Gurhat said in a cold tone.

Magid frowned, "When are they going to take action?"

"They are planning to take action on Eid al-Adha." The Eid-al-Adha of Tianfang Sect was February 5, 1840.

The fanatical believers in the Ottoman Empire were not fools. They would not attack the Jews under the protection of the British. The senior leaders of the order believe that Britain's protection of the Jews is more to show off its strength than to sincerely want to help them, so this kind of military operation will not last long.

Eid al-Adha is a very important festival for the people of the Ottoman Empire. Taking action on this day can maximize the influence of the order.

Under the suppression of two generations of sultans, the strength of the religious orders in the Ottoman Empire continued to decline. In order to compete with the government for faith, they had to choose to take desperate risks and put on a grand performance.

And there are no better targets than these vampires, heretics, and invaders.

"They are really good at picking the time. Are they trying to prevent me from celebrating the festival?" Magid joked.

However, Gurhat didn't answer and seemed a little embarrassed. At this time, the palace manager came out to smooth things over.

"Those damn lunatics just like to cause problems for the Sultan. They should all be arrested and stoned to death."

Stone punishment is a relatively cruel punishment. It is not only cruel in the execution method, but also in requiring the victim's family members to watch. It is a very cruel process.

People who are stoned to death usually have difficulty leaving their bodies with their faces intact.

"What should we do?" Gurhat asked.

"Don't worry about it, I hate those damn locusts too. When those old stubborns finish taking care of the locusts, and you hand them over to the British, it will be considered an apology to those infidels," Magid said.

In fact, Meguid's policy of ethnic equality was never fully implemented within the Ottoman Empire, and even led to growing gaps between some ethnic groups.

But the appearance of the Jews at this time inadvertently saved a group of Christians who were about to become victims.
