Struggle in Russia

Chapter 91: Overcast



Paskevich still didn't care much: "Sanya, you just think too much. I know your Majesty, and I know more about the old stuff of Menshekov. You think he is the kind of person who will be easily defeated. ?"

After waiting for Chernesov's answer, Paskovic waved his hand very strongly and continued to say: "Unless he defeats the army or rebels, His Majesty will not easily take him down. of."

"You can rest assured that Menshekov will never be a problem. He will not jump out of the palm of our hand if everything is OK. Everything is the same. The pillar of the empire can only be us. Military and personnel matters are based on us. Lord, ca n’t turn the sky! "

"You have the spare time to worry about these and some, you might as well think about Wallachia and Moldavia. Do you not realize that your Majesty is becoming increasingly impatient?"

For a while, Chernyshev was still a little worried about Menshekov. After all, the eunuch's opponent was Grand Duke Constantine, who was, after all, the favorite son of Nicholas I. And he knew that the Grand Duke tended to reform. Once the Grand Duke took control of the Admiralty, the navy would have to be completely reformed. What if Nicholas I felt that the revolution in the Navy was very good, what would happen to the Army?

This is what Chernesov is most worried about and fears. Menishkov is dead or alive or who is the navy minister. It does n’t matter as long as it does not affect his interests!

But Paskovic is the closest veteran of Nicholas I after all. He knows Nicholas I beyond ordinary people. He said that Menshekov is not a big deal, should he be guaranteed?

Chernesov sighed: "Even so, you still have to pay more attention to your Majesty and take the time to talk to His Majesty, don't let the hairy child of Grandpa Constantine toss. Otherwise, in case His Majesty thinks it is good Let the army follow suit, I will be very difficult! "

Paskevich finally put away his disregarded face and said slightly: "Okay, it makes a little sense. Don't toss if you can't toss, the army can just change things blindly, now it's good!"

Immediately he urged him: "You also have a lot of heart in Wallachia and Moldavia. This is fat!"

Cernesov naturally agreed, he also knew that it was the focus of Nicholas I ’s future attention, and the benefits involved were inestimable, but he also despised his father:

[Half-length body is in the ground, and I want to win the battle. This is because the Turks are so bullied. Are you ready to fish for a title of Prince? 】

Chernesov is clear. In the previous two years, according to the instructions of Nicholas I, the Finnish parliament added the title of Prince to Menshkov so that his dad was envious and envious. The old blind stream in Ukraine thought that his military achievements were 10,000 times stronger than his younger brother's eunuch. But the old **** had become a prince, and he was only the Duke of Warsaw. The dad who is desperate for face really can't bear to lose to a eunuch!

Cerneshov is also willing to fulfill Paskovic's aspirations, but things are not so simple in Wallachia and Moldavia. The ghost place was poor, rotten, and chaotic, and the empire's use of troops several times always restricted it. It took only a lot of effort to turn Wallachia and Moldavia into "autonomous" principalities of Russia. It is still 10,000 miles away from the Balkan "heaven" that Nicholas I expected to establish the Orthodox Church and the Slavs.

Especially since 1846, as the events of the Holy Sepulchre Church in Jerusalem and the Christmas Church in Bethlehem intensified, relations between Russia and France, Russia and Ottoman Turkey, and Russia and the United Kingdom have fallen in an avalanche.

Especially the relationship with France is terrible. The two sides surround the key of the Christmas Church. (Greek priests who believe in Orthodox Church are the managers of the Christmas Church. Therefore, the French-led Latin priest also holds the key to the Christmas church, and the Greeks expressed strong dissatisfaction), the key to the Christmas grotto (this grotto is located below the Christmas church and is said to be the place where **** was born), and the French inlaid silver The star problem (the French inlaid a silver star engraved with the French national emblem and Latin in the 18th century on the grotto floor, the silver star was stolen in 1847 and the French considered it to be hostile to the Greeks). Open.

The foreign minister, Nesher Loddie, will summon the French ambassador to Russia to protest face to face. And the French side often carried the Russian ambassador to France to vent their anger.

As a result, now France and Russia are different from each other. As long as there is a chance, they will spit and swear at each other. Fortunately, the two countries are not bordering each other, otherwise the angry believers will definitely fight hard to make a living.

What's worse, these religious disruptions greatly stimulated the nerves of Nicholas I. The emperor who claims to be extremely devout to his heavenly father and the orator and guardian of the Orthodox Church can not tolerate the face-to-face provocation of France, which he hates most, once and for all. Address religious issues.

Tsarist-style once and for all is actually war, the so-called "jihad" of Nicholas I. He was tired of the failure of the Ottoman sultan to honour the treaty signed with Russia, and also of the pagans who still occupy Jerusalem. The shameless French man never ends.

Nicholas I will declare to the world with a hearty victory that he is the guardian of Christ and the saint who performs the will of the Father on earth. He wants to destroy Constantinople in Turkey. He wants to organize a whole new Crusader movement to restore the Holy Land!

The great aspirations of Daniel Nicholas I caused his conflicts with France and Turkey to be almost irreconcilable. And now he can no longer force the Turkish concession to force the Duke of Wellington as he had just succeeded, because the British were too impatient with his ambitions, and he wished for an opportunity to teach him.

Only in 1847, Russia's unreal power was deeply rooted. Nicholas I arrogantly considered himself the head of the kings of Europe. Eliminating Turkey was as easy as pushing a broken wall.

In accordance with his requirements, Chernesov began to mobilize military forces in the Black Sea region, on the one hand, to reserve supplies, and on the other hand, to vigorously develop and inspire the Leading Party in Wallachia and Moldavia, constantly creating friction and dispute.

These tasks are cumbersome and complicated, occupying too much energy of Chernesov. If it was not too much for Menshekov, he would not really be able to spare any energy to "gossip". Now that Paskovic packs tickets for Menshekov, there will be no major events, he is also relaxed, and quickly go to work, not to delay the schedule and make Nicholas I dissatisfied ...
