Struggle in Russia

Kogelniceanu immediately objected: “This can’t work! My friend, how could I leave you to escape alone! Absolutely!”

Kuza was moved and a little bit dumbfounded about this, because Kogelnicanu completely misunderstood what he meant, and he didn’t stay behind to be a heroic martyr for a feat that made me slash to the sky. He is not stupid, and he doesn’t think such a free sacrifice has any effect.

Actually, Kuzha himself made preparations, ready to hold on at most for another day before sending off Kogelniceanu, and then immediately hurriedly clashed with the whistleblower. He still wants to keep a useful body and continue to play! Otherwise, he didn’t have to be so stupid because he didn’t have to marry all the people who worked so hard before!

It’s just that it’s not easy to say clearly, after all, it’s a bit of that. So Kuzha can only replied solemnly: “My friend, the situation is urgent now, and it will be difficult to leave without evacuation. You can take the seeds of this revolution with you, and you can’t let them sacrifice here in vain. !”

Kogelniceanu became more and more moved. He held Kuza’s hand tightly and asked with tears in his eyes: “Then what do you do? Without your efforts, we would not be able to do all this. , You are the most critical person! Or take them first and let me stay here. Even if you sacrifice, it is better than losing you!”

Kuza was very touched, but, how could he let go of such a good opportunity to gain reputation? Of course it is dangerous, but it is not as dangerous as he imagined. He had arranged a retreat long ago, and he must have brought a group of military forces. If the backbone is safely evacuated, it will be considered a great perfection. In the future, even if you go to exile abroad, you can be highly regarded by foreign friends.

He could only repeatedly reject Kogelniceanu’s kindness: “No! This is too dangerous. I am a soldier, and you are not. There is no reason for the soldiers to retreat first and leave the people to resist! The mission of a soldier is to defend the home and the country. If I can’t do this, what kind of soldier? Even if I escape in the future, what face do I have to continue to lead my compatriots in the revolution and struggle! There is nothing to say, you go first!”

It was another bitter persuasion, and it took a lot of energy for Kogelniceanu to reluctantly agree to the current retreat, but he asked for two more days, hoping to fight with Kuza for two more days.

Suijakuza was full of numbness in his heart, but facing the kind Kogelnicanu he had no choice but to agree with tears in his eyes.

At the same time, with the vigorous persistence and promotion of Lazarev and Yermolov, the new Russian military’s new attacking tactics were resolutely implemented to the end, as the Wallachian National Self-Defense Army’s defense line was broken through and shattered little by little. , Their territory is getting smaller and smaller, and the space for maneuvering is getting smaller and smaller. Under the huge strength of the Russian army, their persistence has become increasingly difficult.

Don’t talk about Kuza at this time, even ordinary people can see that they are over. The collapse is only a matter of time. At this time, Kuza is also ready to evacuate. He knows that if he doesn’t leave, he really can’t go!

At this moment, Duke Mikhail, who was very sensitive to changes in the battlefield, also realized that Wallachia had gone, so he sent personnel to persuade him to surrender. For Duke Mikhail, although continuing to attack can also destroy the enemy, it consumes too much and also wastes time. It is better to use a little bit of advantage to persuade the Wallachiians to surrender. This is no trouble!

In fact, Duke Mikhail was also annoyed by Kuzha. According to his original plan, with sufficient intelligence support from Li Xiao’s side and internal disturbances, Wallachia should be watching the wind. But it has been a few months before moving slowly to Bucharest. Seeing that 1948 is about to end, he doesn’t want to spend Christmas in Wallachia, not to mention that the huge piece of fat in Hungary is still hanging him. His heart has flown over there, OK?

Therefore, Duke Mikhail hopes to end the siege of Bucharest as soon as possible. For this reason, he is willing to make certain concessions to give the Wallachians a little dignity.

“His Excellency, Duke Mikhail Gorchakov, in the spirit of compassion, issued the final exhortation to you, ordering you to immediately put down your weapons and raise your hands and surrender… As long as you surrender, you can guarantee that you will not be sentenced in the future. death penalty!”

Yes, you are not mistaken. The dignity that Duke Mikhail gave to Kuza and others was his promise not to be sentenced to death. This is not his arrogance, but Russia is so heroic, and rebels like Kuza, Nicholas I, have no favor. Generally speaking, after being arrested, they will definitely be sentenced to death. What awaits them in the future is either the death penalty or decades of hard labor. Like Kuza, it is a death sentence with a high probability.

And Duke Mikhail’s willingness to promise not to be sentenced to death can be said to be an extrajudicial favor. It’s just that, it’s totally unattractive to Kuzha~www.wuxiax.com~ He neither wants to die nor go to jail, not to mention that he is ready to escape, so he has no intention of grinding his teeth with Duke Mikhail. , Bluntly rejected the opponent’s persuasion to surrender:

“As a soldier, it is a great shame to surrender. I would rather die than surrender! You can step on my corpse, but you will never let me bow to my knees! Go away, put away your hypocritical mercy, Wallachia has no cowards. , No one is afraid of death!”

I have to say that Kuzha really has a way of boosting morale, because just looking at his generous statement, I am afraid that he will fight to the death and never surrender, but no one can think of it. The envoy who persuades surrender has just been driven away. , He began to arrange the retreat.

According to Kuza’s plan, he will set fire on a large scale throughout the city tonight, burn down the main buildings in Bucharest, destroy all property that cannot be taken, and resolutely not leave a needle or thread to the Russian invaders. Riding on the huge chaos caused by the arson, his remnants will immediately break out of the city, nominally speaking with the Kogelnicanu who retreated in the earlier period, and continue to fight guerrilla warfare in Wallachia with Russia to the end, but Actually, it’s a great escape.

In his words, there is no more sense in Bucharest to stick to it. The seeds of the revolution need to be preserved and the Russian invaders must fight a protracted war.

Don’t even mention that Kuza’s set is really believed. His troops were immediately ready to disperse and break through, ready to ride the chaos and ride the night through the Russian defense line to join Kogelnicanu who had retreated earlier.

It’s just that, as long as Kuza knows that there will be a very small number of people who can successfully break through, he will be thankful for the 20,000 remaining troops who can break through. In fact, he himself doesn’t expect anything to break through…
