Struggle in Russia

The problem is that the centrists like the Duke of Aldorf do not cooperate. In fact, it is not good to say that the differences between the centrists and the conservatives like the Duke of Aldorf and the Duke of Mikhail have increased in recent years. .

If it weren’t for this war, the Duke of Ordorf would be unwilling to pay attention to Chernyshov. He felt that these conservative guys had completely escaped from the times, and they were simply indifference to the past.

Therefore, Chernyshov deliberately turned his words in the direction of Neschel Rodi, which is totally meaningless. The Duke of Ordov expressed his attitude euphemistically in a few words. If he is only talking about Turkey, he Can cooperate.

But if you change the topic of the Prime Minister, he will not accompany him!

This makes Chernyshov more embarrassed. Look at the other people sitting in this room. Needless to say, Duke Vorontsov is an old liberal. He is not the same person with him. It is impossible to support him. .

Nikolai Golitsyn’s personal prestige is not bad, but he is an academic in the army, he is interested in Kutuzov, but he respects the issue of changing the prime minister.

For a moment Chernyshov was a little embarrassed. Almost no one responded to his words. He could only haha ​​and change the subject and said: “Two hundred thousand reinforcements are a bit small, but the country is indeed difficult. It is an eventful time. If the party is not stable, it needs the army to maintain order!”

He seems to be soft, but he is not. He was deliberate, threatening the Duke of Aldorf and others, meaning that you did not cooperate with me to engage in Neschel Rodie, then I do not need to cooperate with you to support Duke Mikhail.

Chernyshov felt that his move should have grasped the seven inches of the Duke of Aldorf and others, and he was not afraid that they would not cooperate.

The Duke of Aldorf and the Duke of Vorontsov looked at each other, and they looked like a mirror in their hearts, knowing that Chernyshov was not a good fart, and were ready to change their way.

It’s just that, this trick is really a bit naive. Are they so easy to handle? What’s more, you think that the reinforcement of the army is only the matter of Duke Mikhail. Do you really think that you, the Minister of the Army, can cover the sky in the army?

So neither of them took the talk, and naturally this meeting could not go on. This makes Chernyshov a little inexplicable. Wasn’t the Duke of Ordorf in a hurry just now? Why didn’t you rush all of a sudden?

He thought that the matter was too big, the Duke of Aldorf needed to go back to find someone to discuss the total, thinking that there would be good news in a few days.

But he waited and waited, there was no news, and no one came to look for him. Count Uvarov, who had been waiting for the news, was impatient.

“Are you sure they went back to discuss and discuss?” Count Uvarov asked with a frown.

Chernyshov nodded subconsciously and replied: “It should be true, don’t you think they don’t have too many options, count? If you don’t replace Neschel Rody, who would agree to send more reinforcements!”

Count Uvarov didn’t say anything. He was thinking about something silently. Chernyshov saw that he was a little worried, and immediately continued to explain: “Count, or I will investigate the situation. If it doesn’t work, I will put some pressure on them. obedient!”

Gee!

Count Uvarov glared at him, shook his head and said: “Don’t worry, don’t be reckless! Duke Aldorf and others are not easy to offend, otherwise it will be very troublesome!”

Chernyshov snorted nonchalantly. To be honest, he felt that Count Uvarov was too cautious. Now that the conservatives have basically reached an agreement on the replacement of the prime minister, they think that a huge wheel can easily crush the block. What’s to be afraid of for all the small boats on the route?

But he didn’t dare to push him in front of Count Uvarov, he could only smirk and accompany him. For a while, Count Uvarov was about to say something to him when he heard a knock on the door, Uvarov. Count husband’s old butler said aloud outside the door:

“Master, the secretary of the count has arrived. I want to see you and count in an urgent matter!”

“Let him in!”

Count Uvarov answered and looked at Chernyshov, as if asking: “What’s the situation?”

Chernyshov is also at a loss. Although the War Department has been very busy recently, it is all routinely busy with the war against Turkey. Those trivial matters don’t need to bother him at all, so why did the secretary come over?

Soon Chernyshov and Uvarov knew the reason. The secretary told them that Paskovic had written a strongly worded letter, asking the War Department to quickly try to get more reinforcements from the Imperial Front, otherwise this There is no way to fight the war.

The old Qiubai had a very tough tone in the letter, as if he was not asking for help but ordering Chernyshov, but this made the latter dare not have any dissatisfaction, because he really couldn’t afford to offend him!

At this time Count Uvarov sighed, because he finally figured out why the Duke of Ordorf and others were indifferent to their proposal. People just don’t have any fear, OK!

Yes, although both the ruling and the opposition knew that Duke Mikhail was in charge of the battle. But the nominal commander-in-chief of the Russian army is Paskovic.

Although this old Qiubai was unable to shoulder the heavy command task due to physical reasons, his commander-in-chief was more like the senior supervising army sent by Nicholas I. But no one dares to ignore his influence. Because of his character, he can’t just sit back and watch Duke Mikhail suffer. After all, he is still the nominal commander-in-chief. The war has not been fought well, and he is too. Will eat melons!

What’s more, Paskovic is not really confused. The reason for the war was like this. The reason why Duke Mikhail was unable to make progress was that Russia did not know enough about the war, and failed to participate in the war with Britain and France. , Austria is dragging its feet, preparing to watch the play next to Prussia.

These serious strategic prediction errors are the crux of the problem. It is not easy for Duke Mikhail to maintain the situation, Paskovic will naturally not fall into trouble, not to mention that he and Duke Mikhail are still grasshoppers on a rope, and naturally they have to help speak!

Speaking of which, Paskovic is also a conservative and an important pillar of the conservatives in the military. Now this big guy has made a request directly, can you not agree to it?

If you are indifferent and don’t agree, then if he blows up, the conservatives will have to collapse more than half of the military. Count Uvarov also counted on Paskovic to help stop Baryatinski and maintain the situation, so how dare he offend Paskovic?

Soon Chernyshov also figured out the reason for this, and he whispered to Count Uvarov: “Would you like to write to the Prince to explain the situation, I believe he should understand…”
