Cuza and Constantinescu have already discussed and prepared for action, while Shuvanov, another ill-intentioned man on the other side, is also eyeing Jan Constantine and Barbu Cataljou. The reason is simple.
, these two people are important figures in the Wallachian National Party, and assassinating them is the most effective and difficult.
Of course, what Shuvanov values is that the latter one is the most difficult. If the difficulty is low, Alexei can really do it. Who would he cry to?
"Gentlemen, after careful study, I believe that now is the best time to get rid of Jan Constantine and Barb Cathartyu."
"You have seen that these two people are incompatible with each other. As long as they are adjusted a little, they will fight against each other! And what we need to do is to help them light this fire!"
However, Shuvanov's initiative did not receive a positive response. Petukhov just asked lazily: "So, Colonel, how are you going to light this fire?"
And Alexey said: "Isn't it enough to light a fire? What if these two people don't fight among themselves?"
Shuvanov explained patiently: "It is easy to start a fire. It seems that the previous bombing of the Bucharest Prosecutor's Office was the work of Jan Constantine. Obviously, this definitely made Barbu Kattar dissatisfied and he definitely wanted revenge!"
"
"So what we have to do is very simple, that is to take revenge on Barbu Kattar before he can, and also carry out an assassination campaign against Jan Constantine. In this way, the latter will definitely think that it is Barbu's handiwork.
, we will definitely fight back!"
Speaking of this, Shuvanov felt a little complacent. He asserted confidently: "At that time, it was difficult for them to think wildly or not!"
Shuvanov felt that his idea was really good, with small investment and big results, and it was very suitable for their current strength. However, he did not expect that this idea was flatly rejected!
Petukhov said: "Are you taking it for granted? Jan Constantine is not a fool. How could he not thoroughly investigate the assassination against him? Otherwise, if the frame-up succeeds, we will be exposed instead!"
Without waiting for Shuvanov to explain, he added: "Also, according to your wishes, assassinating Jan Constantine is probably just a formality and does not require much investment. In this case, with your strength, you can do it alone
Take action! Why involve us?"
Shuvanov immediately wanted to strangle Petukhov to death. If it was really just a feint, there was no need to involve him and Alexei, but his fundamental purpose was to frame Alexei.
If he doesn't join the game, what's the point of doing all this?
According to Shuvanov's idea, he would deliberately leave a loophole in this assassination, and this loophole would point directly at Alexei. When the time comes, Yang Konstantin will become angry and bite Alexei to death?
As a result, Alexei's actions in Wallachia must have completely failed, and there was naturally no way to explain such a disastrous defeat to Nicholas I. At that time, no matter whether Alexei escaped from Wallachia in despair or
If he stays in Wallachia and gives it a go, he will have something to do, and he will inevitably push Alexei into an abyss of eternal destruction!
It can be said that this plan is really poisonous. If Alexey is fooled, he will definitely not be able to escape. But the problem is, Petukhov retorts to Shuvanov in just a few words! His meaning is very clear.
, if, as you Shuvanov said, this plan is so good, with small investment and big results, then you can do it by yourself, there is no need to ask us. On the contrary, what do you want to do by forcefully recruiting us?
Shuvanov, of course, could not answer: "We hit it off and we advance and retreat together as soon as we see each other, and we share the blessings and make meritorious deeds together!"
No one will believe this kind of nonsense, and he can't say that I am a trap just to trick you. Who will be fooled by this?
So he could only explain with a smile: "Although my plan does not require too many manpower, in order to have a comprehensive plan, it is best to kill the chicken with a bull's-eye. A lion also uses its full strength to fight a rabbit! Let's improve the chance of success together.
Higher too!”
However, Petukhov would not be fooled. He replied calmly: "Well, let me consider the task of peripheral observation and cover. Next, your elite soldiers will be responsible for the assassination operation!"
When Shuvanov heard this, he was full of regrets in his heart. Feelings, you mean that you are responsible for looking out. All the dirty work is left to me. If I succeed, you will be rewarded for your meritorious service. If I fail, you will be the first one.
Sayazi is running away, right?
Shuvanov naturally cannot agree to such an arrangement. He still hopes that the people who do it will include people from Alexei or Petukhov, so that there will be a flaw in the end and he can pass the blame. Otherwise, the whole thing will be exposed in the end.
Well, the responsibility is all his, so what’s the point of hitting Alexei on the butt?
So he immediately objected: "Although the people on my side are all good people, the manpower is really thin. You all have to support my side more or less, otherwise we won't be able to do it!"
Petukhov asked directly: "Then the manpower I support you will listen to whose command?"
Shuvanov was about to say that he would naturally obey my full command, but he immediately realized that was not possible. If the assassination operation was under his full command, then he would be directly responsible. He would have to bear the blame for the final failure!
How can this work!
But if he objected, it would appear to be too deliberate. If the action was as simple as he said, who would push out such a good opportunity for meritorious service and awards?
For a moment, Shuvanov was in a dilemma again. It seemed that he couldn't agree or disagree!
In the end, he could only grit his teeth and reply: "The matter is so important that you can't just listen to me alone. How about we discuss the final action to make sure everything is safe?"
Shuvanov felt that I had already said this, and you should have nothing to say, but he really underestimated Petukhov's ability to stir things up.
Because immediately Petukhov stabbed him without hesitation: "Let's discuss it? How can we do it through discussion? When the time comes, I think the situation is not right and I don't agree to take action. Should I stop doing it?"
Shuvanov was stunned. He never expected that Petukhov would ask such a painful question. According to him, once the action started, it naturally could not stop, and he would not listen to calls to stop.
But Petukhov actually said all the ugly things, what should he do?
After thinking about it, Shuvanov decided to kick the ball to Alexei. He felt that Alexei should support his plan. As long as the final decision was given to Alexei, Petukhov would
I have no right to say I disagree.
So he answered quite naturally: "Of course the power to make emergency decisions belongs to His Majesty the Earl. When the time comes, we will all obey His Majesty's command!"
