With the conclusion of this secret mobilization meeting on the Ottomans, preparations for the battle began throughout Italy.

The Turin Arsenal, located in the east of Turin, was formerly known as the Sardinian Kingdom Arsenal, which was founded in 1716 by the Sardinian Kingdom government. Later, after integrating several other weapons manufacturing plants, it became the main weapons supplier for the army of the Kingdom of Sardinia.

After the reunification of Italy, the Torino Arsenal became one of the main arsenals in the Kingdom of Italy, undertaking nearly 30% of the military's weapons manufacturing tasks, and it is currently the largest arsenal in Italy.

In the rifle manufacturing workshop of the arsenal, a brand-new m88 Carcano rifle is being manufactured by the workers.

And Carvalho, the general manager, is inspecting the factory.

"The quality of the army's orders must be guaranteed. Last month, an accident in which a soldier was injured by using a gun was identified as a problem with the quality of the gun. You must pay close attention to the quality. I will not allow such an accident to occur again."

Facing Carvalho's words, the head of the rifle manufacturing workshop kept nodding. "General manager, please rest assured that we have punished the person responsible for the gun and warned him that if such an accident occurs, he will go home immediately."

The workshop manager's words made him very satisfied.

"Very good. Since I took over, I have been emphasizing quality. Only high-quality quality can make us the first choice of the military. We must know that there are several arsenals behind us, eyeing us, and we must not relax."

After talking about the quality issue, Carvalho casually asked the secretary behind him. "By the way, what is Mr. Carcano busy with these days?"

As the general manager of the arsenal, Carvalho is very concerned about the chief firearms designer of his factory. I don't care about it. What if this master has a hot head and is poached by other arsenals, and he can't find a place to cry himself?

In the face of his own leader's inquiry, the secretary quickly said. "Mr. Carcano is currently analyzing Beretta Arms Maxim machine guns."

As soon as he heard that the chief gunsmith was not doing his job and started to study the machine gun again, Kava slightly had the urge to slap his forehead.

"Is it the latest Maxim machine gun?"

"Yes, this is Beretta's latest Maxim machine gun. I heard that its reliability is 6% higher than the previous model with a weight reduction of 2 kg. According to the test, it can shoot 96 uninterruptedly. Minutes don't get stuck."

As a qualified secretary, it is natural not to ask what to answer, but to inform him in advance what the leader wants to know. At this point, Carvalho's secretary is very qualified.

However, Carvalho did not notice the problem of qualified secretary, but thought that his opponent also had an excellent firearms designer, and felt a headache, of course, more with envy.

Unlike rifles, which are heavy-duty guns, Beretta's machine guns are technical jobs, and they are also a unique business. Why can't he be envious.

But no matter how much envy it is, it is useless, unless your chief gunsmith can develop a work that is better than the Maxim machine gun, and it is because of this little expectation, so he did not do Carcano's business. , without much interference.

While Carvalho was inspecting the arsenal, the director of the office hurried over. His running posture is a bit weird, like a ball with four limbs running, and the sweat stains on his forehead are clearly visible, which is difficult for his 180-pound weight.

Before I could see him approaching, I heard his panting sound like an aging blower.

"What's wrong?"

Everyone could hear the Prime Minister's dissatisfaction, so the scene immediately fell into a strange and quiet atmosphere. "Sorry, for not notifying the government in advance, the time is mainly because the time is not ripe. After renewing the contract of the Three Kingdoms Alliance, didn't I call everyone here?"

The words in Carlo's mouth were a little surprising. I didn't expect that the king would be able to make concessions to the prime minister. You must know that Carlo has always had a strong image, no matter who he feels about.

But soon they knew that this was just an illusion, and Carlo continued to say. "The next step is to prepare for war against the Ottomans. I don't think there is any objection to this?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Carlo stared at the people in the venue, especially the Prime Minister. The prime minister and the king looked at each other, and the performance of the two made the atmosphere of the scene tense again.

"I'm in favor of preparing for war with the Ottoman Empire."

Suddenly a voice broke the situation. The person who spoke was somewhat surprising because it was Foreign Secretary Jemini Bakona.

With the opening of Bakona, the Minister of Navy and Army, who has long been interested, is not far behind.

"Our navy is in favor of preparing for the war against the Ottomans. As long as the king orders it, the navy is more than capable of keeping the Ottomans without sea routes at any time."

Admiral Golek, who had already received a lot of benefits, was the first to speak.

And his words made several people say something in their hearts, flattery!

But he was right. For the Ottoman Empire, Italy's biggest advantage was the navy. As long as the Italian navy sent half of its warships, the old warships of the Ottoman navy would all hide in the Black Sea Strait. Because coming out is the rhythm of delivery, it is completely packaged.

"Our army is also in favor of preparing for war against the Ottoman Empire."

Compared with the navy, the war minister is not so confident.

In the final analysis, it is the reason of strength. The Ottoman army is not a native of Africa. If you want to say that it is easy to win, but dare not to say that it is difficult to win, that is not to grow other people's ambition and destroy your own prestige. Just don't say it.

The speeches of the two ministers in succession made the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Teyera, feel that if he did not say anything, he would be placed in the ranks of the prime minister, so he could only speak. "I also support the preparations for war against the Ottoman Empire, but the Treasury needs to raise funds, so it's better that the war comes later."

Well, Teyera's words almost amused everyone present. There is actually such a thing, but others don't understand it, only Teyera himself knows, this is his sincere words. At present, if you want to raise enough funds, it is a big project for the Ministry of Finance. It is impossible to do without two or three years.

To fight against the Ottoman Empire, no matter how one billion lire is necessary~www.wuxiamtl.com~ This is a rough estimate given by him based on the previous two military operations.

Now only the Prime Minister has not made a statement. At this time, the shortcomings of his character were exposed. After he was indecisive, he felt a little panic when he saw that everyone else agreed.

Just then Carlo handed over the steps. "Prime Minister, do you agree with it too?"

Facing Carlo's question and the gazes of others, Prime Minister Depretis nodded with difficulty and spit out a word.

"Yes."
