Struggle in Russia

Only then did Li Xiao suddenly realize what was wrong with him. He really didn't expect these conservatives to be so capable of making troubles, and they could take advantage of the loopholes if they were not careful.

Fortunately, he still has connections in the Black Sea Fleet, otherwise he would have been really screwed and would not know what was going on.

Thinking of this, Li Xiao thanked him sincerely: "Thank you so much, this news is so important to us!"

Kornilov just shook his head and said, "There is no need to thank you. You have helped us a lot before. If I really want to say thank you, Pavel Stepanovich and I don't know how many times to thank you." Woolen cloth!"

After a short pause, he sighed: "But this time... hey... Those guys in China are really too much. They even do this kind of thing for a little self-interest!"

It can be seen that Kornilov is also contemptuous of what the conservatives do. For personal gain and to flatter Nicholas I, he doesn't even want his face. He is a buffoon!

Li Xiao couldn't help but sighed when he heard this, who said it wasn't the case, the conservatives did everything they could, they didn't even want the basic food.

"Have all the relevant personnel been arrested?" Li Xiao asked suddenly.

Kornilov raised his eyes and glanced at Li Xiao, he was a little unsure what Li Xiao wanted to do. The Black Sea Fleet will definitely arrest the relevant personnel involved in the case, but so what if they are arrested? It is certainly impossible to really investigate to the end, and arrest all the people involved in this conspiracy.

What's more, it is very likely that St. Petersburg will not take what this group of people did seriously, and it may even make St. Petersburg very happy. After all, Nicholas I hated a certain nephew, which is almost well known.

Kornilov smiled bitterly and said, "You should know that everyone who should be arrested must have been arrested, but those who should get away with it must still be getting away with it!"

Li Xiao is also aware of this point. He has never expected the military police of the Black Sea Fleet to enforce the law impartially and investigate to the end. That is unrealistic. What he wants is actually which forces in Wallachia and Moldavia have been contacted by these people to carry out that evil plan. Li Xiao wanted to eradicate these forces by the roots, so as not to turn around, these guys and the conservatives in the country would plot against him again.

"It's okay to tell you that," Kornilov nodded indifferently. He couldn't go up and go after the conservatives in the country, but it's easy and pleasant to kill some mosquitos and flies down. I give you the list, but let me remind you that it is impossible to hold them accountable with this case itself. Because Berge has already issued an order to block the case, this case will be dealt with coldly.

No records will be kept, and those involved will be arrested and tried on other grounds. "

Li Xiao nodded, feeling more and more grateful to Kornilov. He secretly made up his mind that he and Naximov must be supported in the future Crimean War, lest the two end up like those in history. Same ending.

"Don't worry, I know. I will investigate these guys and deal with them with appropriate reasons!"

Kornilov nodded, discussed with Li Xiao about mine warfare and the defense of Sevastopol, and left in a hurry.

Looking at the background of his departure, Li Xiao sighed deeply. After so many years, he felt more and more how difficult it is for the Russian reformers in this era. Needless to say, the pressure from all aspects, if you are not careful, you will be plotted and killed. It's no wonder that after Alexander II stopped reforming, this group of people went crazy and turned into a group of revolutionary thugs.

"What are you going to do?"

Just when Li Xiao was about to go back and think about how to deal with the group of youngsters in Wallachia, Muraviev suddenly stopped him. I don't know where this old man came from, and Li Xiao was taken aback.

"Did you hear all that?"

Muraviyov nodded, and said calmly: "Of course, my ears are still good, and I heard everything!"

Li Xiao suddenly smiled wryly, obviously he was very careful, why was he bumped into by Muraviyov, fortunately this old man is also a reformist, otherwise things would be a big deal.

For a while, Li Xiao was quite speechless, because he didn't know what to say.

After a long time, Muraviyov was the first to break the silence. He asked, "Do you think Britain and France will definitely help the Turks? Even at the expense of going to war with us?"

Li Xiao sighed, then nodded silently.

Muraviyov frowned first, and then asked: "Why, what is the reason?"

Li Xiao had no choice but to explain his own analysis to him. Now he only hoped that the old man was not that stubborn, otherwise he would have a big head.

Muraviyov is certainly not stubborn. After listening to Li Xiao's analysis, he sighed leisurely and said, "I see. I have to say that your analysis is quite reasonable. I had the same premonition before. It seems that my premonition was correct!"

Li Xiao was a little surprised by this, because before he did the same analysis with other people, including Kornilov and Alexei, it took a lot of effort to convince the other party. And Muraviyov even said that he felt the same way, this old man is too unusual.

Muraviyov sighed: "Before, I was very surprised why His Majesty recalled me from the Far East to St. Petersburg, and why he suddenly sent me to Wallachia and Moldavia for inspection. Now I almost understand what he means. !"

He said with a self-deprecating smile: "I'm afraid he thinks that although my old bones are a bit annoying, there are still two brushes in war. Now his group of confidantes are either old, or their achievements are too high. It’s easy to use again, so I can only put a capable and barely usable person like me in St. Petersburg just in case..."

Li Xiao was stunned for a moment before realizing that Muraviev's words were indeed very reasonable, because of the last European revolution, Paskovich had already been made a prince, and Duke Mikhail was also promoted to marshal. These two veterans who can fight have basically reached their peak. It's not that they can't be used anymore, but Nicholas I is worried that once Bulgaria is settled this time, it will be another brilliant victory, so how should these two be commended?

Isn't that the master of high merit?

As for other generals, such as Menshikov, Nicholas I was not completely at ease letting them command the overall situation, after all, their ability and age were there.

So now who will direct the next military operations? Presumably Nicholas I was also very embarrassed. Bariatinsky was fine, but he was a little younger. Even though Crown Prince Alexander admired him very much, he was not Nicholas I's confidant after all. After all, he was separated by a layer. !
