Struggle in Russia

Vol 3 Chapter 443: Duke Constantine's careful thoughts

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

In fact, this type of task is not the first time that the Black Sea Fleet has done it. Kornilov has done a big vote before and almost caused an international dispute. This time, Menshkov would at best replay the old tricks, or that there is no other way.

It is true that although the Turks are afraid of Russia, Bulgaria is too close to Istanbul. Without this barrier, Russia would almost be able to herd horses under the walls of Istanbul. For Turkey, this is not safe anymore, okay!

The Turks meant to give Bulgaria some degree of autonomy at most, but would never allow Russian troops to enter Bulgaria, and Bulgaria has only autonomy, and its defense is still in the responsibility of Turkey, which means that the Turkish army remains in Bulgaria.

This result is naturally far from the requirements of Nicholas I. The minimum goal of Nicholas I is to turn Bulgaria into Wallachia, an autonomous grand duchy, and it is better to be protected by the Russian army for a few years.

Now that he is not allowed to garrison for protection, the Turkish army has to remain in Bulgaria. This is tantamount to autonomy in the situation. This is very different from the gradual annexation of Bulgaria that Nicholas I wanted to achieve, and he naturally couldn’t agree to it.

Nicholas I, who felt he had a great advantage, naturally wanted to put pressure on Menshkov, ordering him to bring Turkey into submission as soon as possible.

Now Menshkov is the baby who feels bitter but can’t tell. Nicholas I ordered him to apply pressure desperately. On the other hand, Prime Minister Nesher Rody told him that it is okay to apply pressure, but he must not talk about collapse. Now, because the empire’s finances can’t fight a big war at all, if he provoked a war, he would carry the scapegoat by himself!

Although Menshkov was a bit old, he was not particularly confused. Nesher Rody’s warning was that he still knew how good it was. Moreover, speaking from his own wishes, he is not willing to really go to war. After all, he was already old, and he could not ride horses and swords twenty or thirty years ago to open up new territory.

His old bone just wanted to go back to the office of the St. Petersburg Admiralty and sit and doze by the fireplace. In other words, the war really started. He has neither the interest nor the energy to direct the battle, and naturally there will be no credit for it.

And if there is a moth in this war, then he, the person who lit the fuse, must be in the wrong. How can Menshkov want to do things that are all bad and no good?

You can imagine what kind of psychology this old **** has and what kind of work attitude he has. He said that after arriving in Istanbul, he was more of a foreign worker, hoping that if the Turks suddenly succumbed, he would naturally return to St. Petersburg for business. If Turkey does not yield, he hopes that Nicholas I will be impatient. He recalled to change someone to do this messy job.

It only took a few months, and neither of the two goals could be achieved. Although the climate in Istanbul is still relatively pleasant, Menshkov is upset! Especially as Nicholas I urged him day by day, it was annoying for him. He couldn’t really go against the will of Nicholas I. You can imagine how entangled the old man was!

In desperation, Menshkov’s only way is to kick the ball. Didn’t Nicholas I say that he did not exert enough pressure? Isn’t it okay for him to put pressure on someone else, and throw this hot potato out?

Therefore, the essence of ordering the Black Sea Fleet to do things is that Menshkov is throwing the pot. Because he felt that the Black Sea Fleet had already exerted extreme pressure last time. At that time, the Turks did not give in, and this time naturally they would not submit.

Just grab the medicine and do it again, Nicholas I will have an explanation. It can be said that he has done his best, but the Turks are very stubborn.

Even if Nicholas I was dissatisfied with the result, the black pot was carried by the Black Sea Fleet. Who made this group of people not strong enough to put more pressure on the Turks!

And it wouldn’t upset Neschel Rodie, presumably the prime minister should be able to see his painstaking efforts, knowing that he was enough to save face.

At that time, Menshkov had nothing to do with him, and at least he was able to buy himself some breathing time if nothing else.

Menshkov’s method of dumping the pot was very good. The only problem was that the Black Sea Fleet had just changed its owner. If it was the previous one, he really couldn’t see Menshkov’s plot, and even if he could see through it, he couldn’t help it.

But Archduke Constantine is different! He knew this way of playing football in official circles, so he could see through Menshkov’s intentions at a glance, knowing that this stuff was pouring into him with a stomach of bad water, naturally he couldn’t bear it!

Grand Duke Constantine knew very well that he would not please him if he followed Menshkov’s script. Not only to be complained by my own Laozi, but also to face the pressure of domestic hardliners.

This kind of black pot, Constantine, is naturally unwilling to recite it, so it’s not that he doesn’t want to go to Moldavia, but that he really has to take a trip to the Black Sea Fleet, because he suspects that if he doesn’t go, Kornilov And Nasimov just fooled around without even thinking about it.

Because even if the result is not good, it is the acting commander of Grand Duke Constantine who went out to top the thunder. What does it have to do with them?

Several factors add up, and Archduke Constantine is naturally unable to sit still~www.wuxiax.com~ Even if it is the Black Sea Fleet, he does not have much say, but for no reason, he just won’t do it!

What’s more, he thinks that Menshkov’s moths are not all bad for him. Menshkov can play the ball, wouldn’t he? Not only can he play the ball, but he can also play the ball while being nasty!

Grand Duke Constantine is ready to use this opportunity to beat Kornilov and Nasimov to regain part of the right to speak in the fleet. If he can successfully transfer all the relevant responsibilities to those two, he can naturally take this accountability after the incident is completed. Is he still afraid that he won’t be able to get back the right to speak at that time?

Based on this, Archduke Constantine naturally said that he didn’t want to go back to Chisinau first. He was holding a stomach of bad water and was ready to take advantage of this opportunity to clean up Kornilov and Nasimov.

His movements were not as fast as usual. Before the next day, he rushed to Sevastopol in a hurry that night. If he had the same kind of energy to do business, how could it be the situation now!

However, his movements are not the fastest. Before him, Li Xiao had already rushed to Sevastopol. Any disturbance in Turkey affects his nerves, and he knows how deep the water is…
