Chương 277: Chapter 26, Reflection

```

After the outbreak of the Central Asian War, the Persian Government realized they had been dupped by the Russians, or more precisely, by the bureaucrats within the Tsarist Government.

The so-called aid was indeed provided, only it was a little late in action and discounted in quantity.

What were minor issues in peacetime became major problems in wartime; due to the lackluster support, the Persian military was initially oppressed by the British on the battlefield.

For their own safety, the Persian Government decided to introduce the power of a third country to balance the forces of Britain and Russia and to end the war as soon as possible.

Regrettably, the officials of the Persian Government were not very astute; they first turned to the United States, attempting to use American power to balance Britain and Russia.
