But Count Rostovtsev opposite him replied extremely calmly: "The old Russia will be completely destroyed, and the new Russia will be reborn from the ashes of the past like a phoenix rising from the ashes!"
Dmitri looked at Count Rostovtsev coldly. At this moment, he felt that the other man was really an out-and-out lunatic. This man had been planning this moment for many years. He used the power of destruction to force Russia to regain its life.
Just thinking about this crazy idea makes one's scalp numb.
Anyway, Dmitri was so frightened that he swallowed his saliva. He stuttered and asked, "Is the risk too great? What if we are completely destroyed and never get up?"
Dmitri thought that Count Rostovtsev would give him a strong explanation, or tell him that Russia would never fall. But he really didn't expect that the other party's answer would be:
"If Russia is completely destroyed, it means that it is time for Russia to be destroyed!"
Dmitri was really going crazy - what kind of bullshit answer is this! I bet you, it's do or die here, it's just gambling, okay?
This time Dmitri really regretted it. He felt that Count Rostovtsev was too crazy and he was deceived like an ignorant child.
He wanted to shout to Count Rostovtsev to stop, to stop this crazy plan, but when the words came to his lips, he suddenly realized that he seemed to be unable to stop at all.
Because from the beginning to the end of this plan, Count Rostovtsev was only a behind-the-scenes guide, not a behind-the-scenes executor. Now that Neserrodie has put all his money on the gambling table, no one can even think about it.
At this time, tell him to stop.
At least Dmitri knew that he couldn't make Neserrodie stop, and what's the use of stopping Neserrodie? Also going crazy was Nicholas I, who had already
Bulgaria regards it as a treasure, how is it possible for you to ask him to let go!
Immediately, Dmitri slumped down on the chair. He leaned against the back of the chair and gasped for air. Beads of sweat as big as soybeans dripped down from his forehead. After a while, his front was wet all over.
.
After a long time, he sighed dejectedly: "You are so crazy!"
But Count Rostovtsev replied disapprovingly: "Russia is already terminally ill, and there is no possibility of resurrection without strong medicine. Either wait for death slowly, or fight hard. Which one do you choose?"
Dmitri was immediately speechless, but he still could not accept the fact that Count Rostovtsev used this tiger-wolf medicine.
"Now that you have time to complain and sigh here, you might as well make some preparations, otherwise with our current armaments, there is very little hope of not being destroyed!"
Only then did Dmitry wake up. Although he knew that Russia was definitely unable to defeat the British and French forces, it was still worth the effort to retain the last breath and hope. As the deputy chief of staff of the army, he could indeed do a lot.
Looking at Dmitri who left in a hurry, Count Rostovtsev's expression was as calm as an ancient well, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
With the intervention of Crown Prince Alexander, Paskovich could only take a half step back to give Neserrodie what he wanted. So starting from the second quarter of 1852, Wallachia and Bulgaria bordered
The border line was bustling with activity. Today there was a drill and the next there was an armed patrol. It was really noisy and full of soldiers.
For a time, the news that Russia would go to war with Turkey again was flying all over the sky, and embassies and spies from various countries acted together, making the huge Istanbul a state of chaos.
"Your Excellency Counselor, your relationship with Wallachia is extraordinary. You must have inside information. Is there really going to be a war?"
David Leboeuf was already confused as to how many people had asked him this morning. As an old friend of the Russians, many people in the embassy knew that his news about Wallachia and Russia was extraordinary.
He was very well-informed, so people from all walks of life focused on him and wanted to get the most accurate information from him, but this time he was really confused as Monk Zhanger and had no idea what tricks the Russians were up to.
At this moment, Leboeuf really wanted to fly to Bucharest immediately and ask Li Xiao to see if Nicholas I really had convulsions, otherwise he would have gone so far?
Yes, initially the international community held the view that Russia was trying to blackmail Russia in putting pressure on Turkey on the Bulgarian issue. They did not think that Nicholas I really dared to go to war with Turkey again. After all, in the Russo-Turkish War in 1829
China and Russia actually took advantage of it, and the United Kingdom made relatively large concessions to Russia for various reasons.
That incident had basically touched the bottom line of the British. The relevant actions of Russia in Wallachia two years ago had attracted great attention from the British. If a European revolution came out to distract the attention, the British might really want to teach them a lesson.
Teach Russia a lesson.
As the saying goes, you can have one or two, but Russia's increasing pressure has left Britain with no choice. If Russia is allowed to succeed on the Bulgaria issue, it will really be equivalent to handing Turkey over to Russia.
Therefore, the general opinion in the world is that Russia does not have the courage to stop the whole world. As long as Britain gives a stern warning, Russia will retreat. But now Britain has warned two or three times and repeatedly clarified Turkey's sovereignty over Bulgaria.
But the Russians are still conducting large-scale military exercises and even mobilizing troops frequently. This looks like a big event. Is Nicholas I really crazy?
For diplomats from various countries stationed in Istanbul, it doesn’t matter whether Nicholas I is crazy or not, but don’t bring them with him to work overtime. As the regional situation continues to be tense, the strings in their minds are always tense, which can’t be tolerated.
Let people live their lives.
Of course, it wouldn't matter if the Russians just attack without hesitation, but the polar bear just keeps testing without actually stepping on the line, which is really annoying.
Unable to bear the disturbance, Leboeuf could only write to Li Xiao to ask about the situation, but he also knew that Bucharest was too far away from St. Petersburg. Even if Nicholas I had really made a decision, it was unlikely that he would let him know immediately.
, he just hopes that Li Xiao can do his part and find a way to dissuade Nicholas I from continuing to commit suicide, because this time he really knows the attitude of Napoleon III. If Nicholas I really steps on the line, France will never
