Yes, Prime Minister of Japan

The EU's intelligence agencies are not much different from the CIA, but they are even dumber and more greedy.

The Qingshan Command is slightly better; the headquarters will make a plan and distribute it to the various affiliated Ngos, and make payments in installments according to the completion of the roadmap.

At this time, various non-governmental organizations (NGOs) around the world, which had been starving for several years, flocked to Istanbul like flies drawn to excrement.

Last year, when they were targeting India, they used Li Xinghe's money to cause trouble all over the country, paralyzing the Delhi government at one point and allowing He Yang's armored forces to penetrate thousands of miles in one go, frightening Modi. But at that time, the money was mainly going to NGOs targeting India. This year, however, NGOs from all over the EU have gathered in Türkiye.

It can be described as a grand event shared by all.

Not only global NGOs, but also various black gloves of the EU stationed in Istanbul, local left-wing groups in Istanbul, leaders of grassroots activists, Syrian refugee leaders, smugglers, human traffickers, and even Istanbul's nightclubs, KTVs, bars, brothels, underground casinos and all kinds of private clubs cheered.

"It's coming! It's coming! The funds are coming!"

"The battle is here! The money is here! Things are back to normal!"

People seem to be seeing the wonderful life they had during the Arab Spring 20 years ago.

Back then, middlemen from Brussels and Washington, carrying bags of cash, splurged in Istanbul's nightlife, spending dollars and euros as if they were free in the frenzied spending spree. The entire metropolis's service industry was booming, even rivaling Brussels' red-light district.

The secret funds they obtained from the CIA and Brussels, after being distributed among leaders, superiors, their own, and for personal enjoyment, would only leave a small portion to be given as a reward to the 'revolutionary' groups kneeling before them in various Arab countries, much like giving alms to beggars. These so-called 'revolutionary groups' at the time were essentially various extreme and fanatical militias. These militiamen, impoverished by reality and brainwashed by religion, received nothing. Junior officers toiled tirelessly, earning only a couple hundred dollars a month, yet this didn't stop their masters from spending hundreds of thousands of dollars monthly in Istanbul on drinking and prostitution.

Even this last small portion of funds that flowed out still fueled regime changes in Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Yemen, and Syria during the Arab Spring.

Even after the golden age of the Arab Spring ended, during the Syrian war, American and European agents continued to lavishly enjoy Istanbul, filling every night with the smells of champagne, sildenafil, and condoms in this major city of Europe's second-largest metropolitan area.

Everyone was so excited that they didn't even have time to look at the project plan before arriving at the location with their people and equipment.

Then they discovered that this campaign, collectively driven by the CIA, various US foreign intelligence agencies, the Tokyo CIA, and Ukrainian asset management groups, was aimed at overthrowing the regime amid Turkey's economic woes, depleted foreign exchange reserves, and the continuous collapse of the Turkish lira, which led to a triple whammy of stock, bond, and currency losses.

The place these people want to subvert is right here in Türkiye's largest city, the very place where they enjoy their pleasures—Istanbul.

The agents were all stunned:

"Am I overturning myself?"

After a long silence, the agents skillfully picked up their phones and began contacting ISIS veterans in Syria, Hezbollah instructors in Lebanon, suicide bombers in Libya, and extremist imams in Saudi Arabia.

There was no other way; burning down the house was a last resort in order to survive and get food.

It's important for everyone that Erdogan isn't here.

As for whether Türkiye will still exist in the future, that's hard to say.

2032 October.

Nationwide protests have erupted in Türkiye demanding Erdogan's resignation.

Erdogan didn't waste any words; the police and the army used three blows to disperse the protesters.

How can you prove to your investors that you have indeed achieved the desired results?

That would naturally mean—doing something really tough!

Surrounded by a large number of cameras, protesters dressed in black, wearing sneakers and masks, threw Molotov cocktails in the streets and used umbrellas to shield themselves from Turkish army rubber bullets.

All sorts of bizarre people also appeared in the parade, posing and taking photos wildly, playing various well-known anti-government roles.

The familiar faces are already very familiar.

But when it comes to creating drama, we have to look to these Muslims who have been stirring things up for 20 years since the Arab Spring.

The pre-arranged political leaders began to raise the red star and crescent flag and shout slogans through the crowd:

"Citizens of Istanbul, don't be afraid of tanks, tanks should be afraid of us!"

The march continued forward, approaching the rapid reaction forces of the Turkish Third Army and the formations of Leopard 1 tanks.

The protesters continued to advance, and many women had already taken out flowers, preparing to perform a famous scene of inserting flowers into gun barrels, before everyone dispersed peacefully.

However, as the crowd drew closer, the pressure on the military and police also increased.

A new recruit suddenly couldn't help but grip the machine gun in his hand and uncontrollably pressed the trigger.

Machine guns were pointed at the demonstrators, and the roaring 12.7mm bullets rained down on them like a storm. The powerful bullets tore the victims in two or even to pieces.

Soldiers on other nearby tanks and on the front lines also responded, pulling the triggers and firing wildly at civilians.

"They fired! They fired!"

This time, they really fired.

This is no longer the time of the 2016 Turkish coup. Those officers who supported change, a return to normalcy, and modernization have been purged. Now, the military is mostly populated by conservative officers. Although the Turkish Third Army is a NATO-controlled force, it has also been replaced.

When the storm of bullets subsided, thousands of corpses lay strewn across the tank formation, most of them unrecognizable.

Corpses piled up like mountains.

Lieutenant General Levan Ergun of the Third Army slapped his thigh:

"It's over...something terrible has happened..."

In the fleeing march, Ngo and his agents were so excited they wanted to jump for joy.

I've received my bonus!

They began to create further chaos:

"The blood has already begun to flow; Türkiye has reached a point where revolution is inevitable!"

"Let's have a revolution!"

The signals of revolution quickly began to spread and proliferate in the European part of Turkey, with photos of mountains of death piling up in the streets going viral on TikTok and Twitter.

When blood flowed through the streets of Istanbul, and people's wallets were empty, the revolutionary tide surged like mountains and seas.

Street politicians are shouting:

"It's time to break free from Turkey! We...we should be independent, Istanbul should be independent. Because we belong to Europe, Turkey belongs to Asia. Because we support a future of freedom, democracy, and flowers, unlike those old peasants of the Black Sea who are stuck in their ways. We are White Turkey! We are the Republic of Istanbul!"

The flag of Constantinople, which later became the Turkish flag, was a red crescent and star flag. The independence party members added the word 'independence' to it, and it became the new flag.

Of course, the most outdated but legally sound method used by democrats is the so-called referendum:

"We want a referendum on independence! We want to secede from Türkiye!"

"Get the EU to witness this!"

This is Erdogan's own boomerang. He is the one who artificially created the so-called 'White Türkiye' and 'Black Türkiye'.

Those middle-class, petit-bourgeois people in cities, the guys in white shirts, such as the citizens of Istanbul, Antakya, and Izmir, are part of White Türkiye.

Turkish farmers and villages, represented by Erdogan, are Black Türkiye, proving their simplicity, sincerity, and true Turkic heritage.

This distinction between black and white is Erdogan's political rhetoric of inciting public sentiment and creating division.

Now, his rhetoric has backfired, and Belarus is really starting to flee.

In addition, an independent army was present at the scene.

This is to ensure that independent organizations and independence referendums are not sabotaged by the Turkish military.

If people recognize them, they will find that these bearded men who organize people's resistance armies in the suburbs and towns, and fight desperately in street battles with the Turkish army and police, look exactly like crazy cult veterans from the Syrian battlefield.

……

When the bloody turmoil broke out in Istanbul, Li Xinghe was overjoyed and clapped and celebrated with everyone.

Aiman ​​kissed Li Xinghe's lips tenderly and asked:

What happens next?

Li Xinghe said with a smile.

"Let the Europeans take over."

Europeans were very happy to see Istanbul become independent, because once the region became independent, not only would the Straits of Marmara and the Bosphorus become areas under their control, but they could even set up their own agencies in Istanbul and make it a vassal of Brussels.

It could even block the Black Sea, preventing Li Xinghe's influence from extending in.

Sure enough, Li Xinghe didn't even need to provoke anything; once the heinous incident of machine guns shooting at civilians was exposed, the whole of Europe was in an uproar.

Suddenly, the soaring natural gas prices became irrelevant, the persecution of right-wingers by the center-left establishment became irrelevant, and no one paid attention to Li Xinghe's creation of a new red group in Ukraine. All of Europe focused on the escalating wave of democratic protests in Istanbul. The media gave it extensive coverage.

Turkish troops drove tanks, and civilians threw Molotov cocktails. Turkish machine guns opened fire on civilians, and special forces conducted house-to-house raids. In the ensuing chaos, civilians ambushed and killed Turkish soldiers and police officers in alleyways.

Why aren't you making a move yet?

The EU immediately warned Türkiye:

"A warning to Türkiye: if it fires at its own people again, Europe will impose economic sanctions on it, similar to those imposed on Russia!"

The bureaucrats in Brussels weren't completely stupid; they quickly grasped the best way to threaten Erdogan. If Erdogan were to send more troops to Istanbul, the EU would cut off Turkey's SWIFT payment privileges, subjecting it to the same global sanctions as Russia.

Given Türkiye's current economic situation, even Erdogan's peasant supporters would go bankrupt if the EU imposed global sanctions.

Taking advantage of Istanbul's declaration of independence, the European right-wing coalition celebrated wildly:

"Let Constantinople return!"

"Let the people wage a holy war against Constantinople!"

Such a slogan has become the only common goal that can unite the center left and the far right in Europe's divided countries.

After all, the far right is often associated with religious groups, while Christian political parties generally take a centrist stance, meaning they can have a say on both sides.

Ultimately, Brussels, with astonishing efficiency, put forward the Istanbul Bill.

"The EU welcomes the refugees to Istanbul and welcomes you to the free world."

The EU is willing to accept the arrival of refugees.

After all, there are already too many refugees, so a few more won't make a difference.

But this time the EU has learned its lesson.

They proposed a corresponding 'reverse immigration plan'.

It encouraged devout Europeans to settle in Istanbul.

They believe that all of Europe should flock to Istanbul, temporarily change their citizenship to Türkiye, and even hold a referendum there without changing their identity.

The European Grand Right Alliance, comprised of right-wing parties such as the French National Front, the Alternative for Germany (AfD), and the Polish Law and Justice Party, quickly allied with Christian center-right parties like the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) and began sending their respective elite coup plotters to Istanbul to form a stormtrooper force.

One after another, People's Holy War armies set off from all over Europe.

In Poland, Hungary, Serbia, Italy, Germany, France, Spain, and almost every other place where traditional conservative Christian denominations are dominant, churches in various dioceses have been organized to assign manpower.

Although everyone was poor, religious organizations could help the poor forget their poverty. Various churches pooled their money and sent the unemployed poor people in their parishes to Constantinople to form a human wall to stop the Turkish tanks.

Thus, a strange scene unfolded in Europe at this time.

Turks and Syrians in Istanbul are fleeing en masse to Europe, trying to escape a Turkey filled with bloodshed and economic decline, and heading towards the beautiful and free land they envision.

Millions of people headed north.

Conservative politicians and local churches in various European countries are organizing poor people from Europe to go to Istanbul to make up the numbers, trying to forcibly bring Constantinople back into the embrace of Europe through a method similar to "replacing a cage with a bird".

Millions of people moved south.

The flow of people heading to Europe went from Bulgaria and Romania to Hungary and Austria, into Germany and France, and finally to Britain.

The crowds from Europe set out from various countries, gathered in Romania and Hungary, crossed Serbia, regrouped in Bulgaria, and entered Istanbul at Edirne.

Taking this opportunity, NATO fleets and troops deployed in the Sea of ​​Marmara began to clash with Turkish forces, preventing Turkish troops in Asia from crossing the strait into Europe.

It's just like the Byzantine breakthrough strategy used by a Europa Universalis player.

While Europe's attention was drawn to the democratic movement in Istanbul, and given the generally incompetent nature of Brussels officials, no one noticed that Li Xinghe's cargo ships were secretly bribing Turkish officers during the Istanbul unrest, traversing the narrow Sea of ​​Marmara to continuously transport large quantities of tanks, missiles, armored vehicles, aircraft parts, and various production line equipment to Ukraine.

Chapter 988: The Big Black Bird Spins and Spins, the Red Army Returns Like Lightning (4700 words)

"Ah, Constantinople, truly the city the world longs for."

When Li Xinghe's masterful operation of blowing up the cesspool was transferred from the Tokyo Aoyama Command Headquarters to the forward command post in Ukraine, everyone was still amazed; Li Xinghe was truly knowledgeable.

He's so good at it.

By gently stirring things up near Constantinople and utilizing the global color revolution network left by the United States, Europeans are thrown into a frenzy, immersed in a dual narrative of freedom and Christian conservatism, attempting to unite the left, center, and right wings with these old 20th-century ideas and embellish the facade of the European Union.

And so, Europeans instantly forgot what kind of monster was emerging in Ukraine, on this black land.

While praising Li Xinghe's amazing feces-exploding operation, Hu Zhantian casually tossed aside a draft of an army-building plan submitted by a young staff officer, which suggested that Ukraine form eight combined arms heavy equipment clusters.

Hu Zhantian cursed in silence:

"What the hell is this combined arms force? This is such a vast plain in Eastern Europe, where are you going to conduct combined arms operations?"
