A comfortable and luxurious four-wheeled carriage stopped at the door of the Austrian Consulate General in Bucharest. With the careful support of the maid and valet, the Straka brothers and sisters were helped into the carriage, but the carriage did not leave and started. The coachman was observing Alek.
At this time, he was chatting happily with several elegantly dressed and bearded gentlemen.
"You just watch these clowns be so proud, so presumptuous, and do whatever they want?!"
There was anger in Rossetti's voice. As a radical among the National Party's radicals, he deeply hated these guys who knelt and licked the Russians. He believed that they were scum and a disgrace to the country, and he wanted to get rid of them quickly.
Jan Constantine seemed to have no emotions at all. It must be said that as a radical, he seemed very calm and calm, as if he had everything under control.
"My good friend! Don't get excited!" Jan Constantine chuckled, "This is a good thing!"
"Good thing?!"
Rossetti's voice almost lifted the roof off the carriage. You can imagine how angry he was.
"How can this be a good thing! We spent so much effort to fight off the Russians and drive these damn Russian lackeys out of power, and now they can act openly in public again. This is terrible!"
Jan Constantine was still so calm and replied unhurriedly: "It's not bad! My friend, these poor clowns hid with their tails between their legs when they saw something bad before, and they couldn't be found, but now
They automatically revealed their identities and jumped out without any effort, which saved us a lot of effort!"
Rossetti stared straight at Jan Constantine and said angrily: "Even so, I am angry just looking at their faces!"
Jan Constantine sighed in his heart, feeling quite hurt by Rossetti's stubbornness and persistence. As the most important ally in the party, Constantine A. Rossetti's character flaws were still there.
Too obvious, too impulsive, too emotional, not knowing how to hide true emotions, always dealing with problems simply and directly, too simple-minded.
Although when you have such a friend by your side, you don’t have to worry about what kind of tricks he will do. You don’t have to worry about waking up one day and your friend hooking up with others and knocking you to the ground. But such a guy can easily cause hatred.
, and it’s easy to get carried away, which is really troublesome.
Jan Constantine fell into deep thought, considering whether to develop new allies within the National Party, because Rossetti's advantages and disadvantages are too obvious. According to the bucket theory, his shortcomings determine his height. It is conceivable that
His shortcomings will definitely be exploited by his political opponents in the future. Once he collapses, the ultra-radical wing of the National Party will not be able to hold on with just these two brothers!
But Jan Constantine thought about it for a long time but could not find a second suitable partner for alliance. Jan Jika, a moderate, is a kind and good man who is friendly with everyone, but this also means that at the critical moment, he
Absolutely unreliable.
Nicola Ionescu, an independent and liberal bastard, can't get along with him, a radical, or conservatives led by Barbu Cataljo. He is a lunatic who quarreled with anyone he saw.
There is no way to cooperate.
As for the conservatives led by the Catalju family, Jan Constantine really didn't like to play with them. They were too conservative and old-fashioned. According to their way of doing things, there was no need to stage a coup to overthrow Bibescu.
! Anyway, we are maintaining the status quo. Isn’t it the same thing to accept who is the father?
[Should we cooperate with Mikhail Constantinescu? 】
But Ion Constantine looked down on Constantinescu a little bit, because this guy's power was too small and too mixed. He was basically composed of a group of small trash forces that were not wanted by radicals, independent liberals and conservatives.
Alliance, this group has too many eyes and mixed opinions and it is difficult to unify. It takes a long time to do something, which is really unpleasant!
Well, the division of forces in the Wallachian National Party is quite strange. The so-called radicals, liberal independents and conservatives do not refer to the degree of revolutionality and advancedness. It does not mean that the more radical the more revolutionary, and the more conservative the more reactionary.
There is no such thing. The so-called radical, moderate and conservative actually refer to the policy of action. When it comes to being reactionary and safeguarding the interests of its own class, the whole party is like a crow.
The Bretianu brothers are aristocratic landowners, Rossetti is also an aristocratic landowner, Jan Gica is still an aristocratic landowner, and the Catalju family is also an aristocratic landowner. How far do you think the aristocratic landowner class can go?
The so-called radicals refer to the attitude towards Russia. Jan Constantine was an extremely Russian-hatred and anti-Russian member of the National Party. He advocated using all means to drive away the Russians and then achieve national independence.
Jan Djika, a moderate, believes that the Russians want to rebel, but they should not be too reckless to do anything. What if they really anger Russia and attract endless revenge from the Russians? So we should stop in moderation and stop when we are almost done.
, don't make it bloody.
As for the independent liberals, they are wavers. Their political opinions change day by day. If the east wind blows today, then follow the east wind. If the west wind blows tomorrow, then follow the west wind. Anyway, I have an idea at a time. Today I want to follow France. Tomorrow I want to follow the west wind.
The UK and Austria may think Austria is good the day after tomorrow. But no matter how you spend your time, one thing must be done - my interests must be guaranteed, not a hair is missing!
As for the conservatives, they feel that the risk of offending the Russians is too high, and they prefer to strive for the so-called national independence through milder means. They believe that on the basis of ensuring that their own interests are not damaged, they can slowly take back power step by step, and not for ten years.
You can wait twenty years, and fifty years and a century are not out of the question.
To put it bluntly, this group of people are all the same. They are not very revolutionary, but Jan. Constantine is fierce in his methods and tougher on Russia. The previous coups were more about his group of people uniting with independent liberals and liberals.
The moderates did it, while the conservatives mostly waited and watched, and then at most they helped and shouted twice when things were successful.
This is also the reason why Jan Constantine was so ruthless in dealing with Count Adrian Petrescu and the landowners in Prahova County. These were all supporters of the conservative National Party. He wanted to deal with them.
.Constantine doesn’t have a dime of psychological pressure, it’s not from his side anyway!
Now, with the sudden intervention of the Austrians, although Jan Constantine said it was easy, the pressure was not without it. It is conceivable that the battle between the Russian faction and the Russian supporters will be more complicated.
At this time, relying solely on the National Party's radical faction is indeed a bit lonely. It is necessary to develop more reliable allies...
