Peace prospects fade as Ottoman military plans emerge
From Constantinople to Vienna and Madrid reports describe a shifting European scene. The Porte reportedly abandons hopes for peace, plans three armies facing Russians and Imperialists, with a Grand Vizir at the center and Bathan commanding a Black Sea fleet. A tax on all subjects, Christians and Jews heavier than Muslims, is noted alongside Ragorski's Transylvanian stance and a Turkish audience gifting funds and officials to his Moldavian journey. In Hungary Saxon auxiliaries may be reduced to five thousand, while Braban t negotiates four million florins for the Emperor. A pestilential drift spreads in Croatia, raising prices as Turks probe the region.
