v3 Chapter 141 - Cover big with small

, The fastest update of struggle in the latest chapter of Tsarist Russia!

Ilya was keenly aware of what seemed to be between Muraviyov and Alexei and Li Xiao. He could feel the tacit understanding between these three people. As an excellent third military police, he was very good at this kind of thing. Naturally sensitive.

However, he did not immediately express this speculation. As an excellent third military police, waiting and observation are necessary skills, so he decided to take a look first.

Ilya did not ask questions about the steamship, which made Alexei and Muravijov breathe a sigh of relief. Because the cost of this thing is so amazing, if Nicholas I knew that they had spent so much money to make such flashy “waste”, it would be fried on the spot!

So some things can only enter the village secretly, shooting a gun is absolutely not necessary.

After inspecting several new steamships in turn, even Ilya must admit that the Wallachian inland fleet at least looks like that. At least the weapons and equipment and spirit are very good. As for whether they can really fight, who can do it? Are you right? No one can tell if they haven’t really fought. After all, those who seem to be very powerful in history, but in fact, they can’t help but fight.

In the evening, when Ilya returned to Giurgiu’s hotel, he was more vigilant, because Muravijov was really scared of him before. Although he was relieved under the guise of being sick, who can guarantee that the old man will persevere Persevere?

Naturally, Ilya is highly vigilant, and his mind is running wildly, thinking about some excuses for shirking and how he can protect himself in case this old guy is going to come hard.

I have to say that Ilya really thinks too much, Muravijov is not so interested in his body at all. After Li Xiao and Alexei’s persuasion, the old man also knew that there were some methods that could not be repeated, just like the empty city plan, every time you come here, sooner or later you will wear help.

And Alexei and Li Xiao also told him that Wallachia still can withstand investigation. Although there must be some secrets that cannot be known by conservatives, these secrets have been concealed very cleverly. People can see through at a glance.

For example, Wallachia’s financial accounts are fake accounts carefully fabricated by the financial wisdom of Li Xiao’s later generations and the traditional techniques of Jewish profiteers. At the level of financial review in this era, it’s not that it’s impossible to find out, but it’s definitely Not one or two people can see the problem within a day or two.

In short, Wallachia was exposed casually, but the deadly big problems were concealed very cleverly. Even if the minor problems were caught, the greatness is the criticism and education, and it is unlikely to be the evidence of the downfall of Alexei. .

In fact, if Li Xiao is willing, he can wipe off even those small problems, and he won’t let the flies drill any cracks. But he knows that there is no fish when the water is clean, and sometimes there is a problem if it is too clean.

After all, Nicholas I was not a fool. After all these years of czarism, what did he look like in officialdom? If a place is completely clean and no problem can be found at all, then there is a big problem, and it must be fake!

Therefore, Li Xiao deliberately left some small questions for the special envoy sent by Nicholas I. To put it bluntly, this is a strategy of covering up big ones with small ones and focusing on the big ones and let go of the small ones.

This trick really worked, because even the special envoys and imperial envoys sent by the conservatives were deceived, although they tried their best to list Wallachia and Alexei’s more minor problems in the report, or deliberately Exaggerate these small problems. However, Nicholas I always criticized Alexei casually and even if it was finished, the reason was that the tsar also took this approach. He felt that as long as Alexei had no principled problems, and there were enough Small problems, it made him feel at ease.

What Nicholas I feared most was that Alexei was as perfect as a saint in Wallachia. Then he would fight against Wallachia and would take Alexei down, because he was a conservative czar. The least needed is a reformist saint!

The reason is very simple. If Alexei becomes a reformist saint, it means that the set he produced is more intelligent and promising than the one that Nicholas I abides by now. It naturally means how conservative it is. Of ignorance and backwardness.

For Nicholas I, Russia’s necessary ignorance and backwardness are beneficial to him. If Russia is as advanced as Britain or France, then maybe he can grow grass on the tsar’s grave, but he will always be there. Can’t forget the impact of the French Revolution on the Bourbon family, he doesn’t want to be the next Louis XVI!

So Alexei is capable, but he is too capable to do too well. Enough capable, he was still a capable minister that Nicholas I could use, but too capable would become the gravedigger of the Romanov family.

I have to say that Nicholas I’s emperor’s mind is quite good, in this respect he is indeed much better than his brother and father. Alexander I had to be at his level, and Speransky’s reforms may have better results.

Closer to home, continue to talk about the side of Ilya and Muraviyov. After inspecting the river army, the two did not return to Bucharest, but took a boat all the way east to Izmail.

After understanding the strength of the Wallachian Inland River Fleet~www.wuxiax.com~ they believe that it is necessary to look at the actual effect. If the Wallachian Inland River Fleet can prove that its capabilities are not on paper, then it is absolutely necessary to report to Nikolai I know that this is of great significance to the possible armed conflict or even war with Turkey in the future.

And Ilya felt it necessary to inspect the port of Izmail and the shipyard. As an important base and shipyard for the Black Sea Fleet on the Danube, this factory is of great significance to Wallachia.

If Izmail has enough throughput, then Russia can send Odessa or Nikolaev’s food directly to the front line of the war against Turkey, helping the Russian army to quickly take down the area around Constanta.

Once Constanta gets it, then the Russian army’s logistics supply line will be more stable, one way can use the Danube and Wallachia supplies, the other way can use the Black Sea Fleet to transport supplies from Ukraine to Constanta. This is of crucial significance for the “liberation” of Bulgaria.

Ilya depends on Izmail Alexei and Li Xiao and will naturally not stop him, because Izmail belongs to Ukraine and has little to do with Wallachia, even if he can find any problems in Izmail. Wallachia is not implicated. The brothers wished him to hide in Izmail and wander around!
