After annihilating the Russian army outside Warsaw, August immediately ordered his Polish army to march towards the areas actually controlled by the Russians. Of course, there was a very high-sounding excuse for this march, that is, in view of the recent raging of the Polish insurgents.
, for the sake of the friendship between Poland and Russia, His Majesty King Augustus of Poland specially sent troops to help the Russian allies tide over the difficulties.
As for the rebels in northern Poland and the Polish army led by Kornjol, the task given to them by August was to find the remnants of Kulichkov at all costs and do their best to eliminate them, and they must not be allowed to
Fleeed into Prussia.
But just as this order was issued, August received a piece of news that made him almost jump with excitement: the Russians were defeated in East Prussia, and they were defeated miserably, with only a few hundred people escaping.
No wait.
This news deeply stimulated August and made him even more confident in his next actions.
The short duration of this battle exceeded August's expectations. Of course, this also allowed August to see the strength of Prussia from the side. It was not possible to defeat Kutuzov in such a short period of time.
A simple thing. August originally expected that this war would last for at least several months, but now the battle was resolved in just one month.
When the Prussian envoy contacted August, although August received him very warmly, he believed that with Kutuzov's attack, at least Prussia would not be able to take action in a short time, but now
.August regretted that he was less attentive when receiving the Prussian envoy.
Just when August felt a little remorseful, William, who was far away in Königsberg, had just finished writing a letter. This letter was written by William to the Prussian ambassador to Russia, Count Scottil.
When Ovolov came into contact with Scotair, the ambassador ordered someone to quickly deliver the letter to William by water.
In his contact with the Prussian ambassador, Count Ovolov placed all the responsibility for sending troops to East Prussia on Kutuzov, and claimed that the Russian attack was entirely Kutuzov's unauthorized action, and that the Empress also
She was very dissatisfied with her actions that destroyed the friendship between Prussia and Russia. If conditions permit, the Queen is willing to apologize to Prussia for this matter and provide appropriate compensation, but she hopes that Prussia can end the battle with Kutuzov as soon as possible.
Owolov's words made William laugh. Such a big thing, a war that caused tens of thousands of casualties to soldiers on both sides, was actually just a private act of a general, and what was even more outrageous was that the queen had no intention of ending the war.
Sincerity.
If you were sincere, you would not say that you hope Prussia will end the battle with Kutuzov as soon as possible. Instead, you should give this order to Kutuzov. Prussia is not a satellite state of Russia. Any action taken by Prussia will be affected by Russia.
No right to point fingers!
William immediately replied to the Prussian ambassador in St. Petersburg, ordering the ambassador to let the Russians convey their dissatisfaction and inform the Russians of the fact that Prussia had won the war. William also proposed that if Russia really wanted to end the war, then.
Massive compensation must be provided for Prussia's losses.
At the same time, William also sent a letter back to Potsdam. This letter was addressed to Locks. In his heart, William expressed his gratitude to Locks for his efforts during this period, and asked Locks to temporarily slow down the various activities in Prussia.
Regarding the progress of regional mobilization, although the cloud of war still exists, now that St. Petersburg has shown a hint of peace talks, William believes that the troops that have been mobilized before are not counted, and the pace of mobilization will slow down from now on.
As a country caught in the cracks, Prussia can be said to be living in a place with four wars. This situation makes William must use every bit of national power carefully. Now the surrounding Königsberg and the continuous flow of reinforcements from various places have been restored.
There were more than 30,000 people there. And many mobilized troops were still on their way here, so William believed that it was necessary to temporarily slow down the progress of mobilization.
"Hello, Your Excellency Count Scottil, I wonder if you have accepted the request I made last time?" Owolov sat on a chair in the office of the Prussian Embassy in St. Petersburg and asked the person sitting in front of him.
Sitting in front of Owolov was the Prussian ambassador to Russia, Count Scottil. The count looked at Owolov dissatisfied and said:
"Your Excellency, Count Oworov, you should understand that the conditions proposed by your country are indeed somewhat inconsistent with the actual situation. The entire European continent knows that your country's Catherine II is a very great monarch and a
She is a qualified queen, and now the war between your country and our country in East Prussia is actually said to be the private action of a general. This makes me really feel that my IQ seems to have been fooled."
"Your Excellency Scottil, I can only say that all this is indeed a misunderstanding. Our Queen has no intention of antagonizing your country. All these are the unauthorized actions of the Polish General Kutuzov. This matter also makes our country
Her Majesty the Queen is very angry. Our Russian Empire really has no intention of war with Prussia. Our two countries have a long-standing friendship. During the most difficult period of the Seven Years' War, the late Emperor Peter III selflessly provided assistance to your country.
, Your two countries have been friendly countries since then. Now because of the personal desires of some people below, the friendship between your two countries has been destroyed. I really regret it."
As if he felt that the fault was indeed his, Ovorov kept his posture very low. You must know that in Russia, there will never be anyone who can make Ovorov so respectful with more than two hands.
"Your Excellency Oworov, as far as this matter is concerned, I really can't give you an answer now. When we complained to you before, you ignored us at all. We have repeatedly reported this to your government.
Protests, but none of them attracted your country’s attention.”
Seeing that Owolov was about to open his mouth to defend himself, Scotel waved his hand to interrupt Owolov's attempt to speak.
"Now that things have developed to an extremely serious stage, I hope you can seriously consider your position with us. At the same time, in order to show your sincerity, I think you must unconditionally withdraw your troops from our territory and provide our country with substantial compensation."
Scotair finished what he wanted to say with a serious face. Looking at the tangled Oworov in front of him, he felt relieved. When he protested to Russia on behalf of Prussia, Scotair was criticized.
There were countless eye rolls from all over St. Petersburg. This anger had always been in Scotaire's heart. Now that someone finally came to vent his anger, how could he let go of this opportunity?
Just when both of them fell into silence, a waiter from the embassy handed a letter to Scotaire. Scotaire nodded slightly to the waiter and then the waiter politely withdrew.
Scotel picked up the letter, opened the seal, and started reading. The more he read, the more wonderful Scotel's face became. In the end, Scotel felt that he could no longer control his heartbeat.
Oworov, who was sitting across from Scotaire, couldn't help but become curious when he saw the drastic change in Scotaire's expression. When even Oworov heard Scotaire's violent heartbeat, he began to express his curiosity about the letter.
His interest became more and more intense. Of course, the nobleman's reserve made him still sit on the chair and look at Scotaire as if he didn't notice anything.
After putting down the letter, Scotel couldn't calm down for a while. Looking at Owolov opposite, Scotel changed his previous serious expression.
"Haha, Mr. Oworov, I have good news and bad news to tell you. Which news do you want to hear first?"
Looking at Scotair's smiling face, Oworov really wanted to punch him. He actually made such a joke with himself in such a serious occasion, but Oworov still smiled reservedly on his face and said
:
"Whether it's good news or bad news, I think I'm very interested."
"Okay, let's hear the good news first. The good news is that the war in East Prussia is over, and now we both have returned to peace."
"Thank you, His Majesty the King, for your understanding. Please rest assured that after Kutuzov comes back, I will definitely ask Her Majesty the Queen to punish this lawless person who acted without authorization and destroyed the friendship between you and me."
Before Owolov could thank him for playing, Scotair interrupted:
"Your Excellency, please don't be too busy thanking me. I have another piece of bad news to tell you. Of course, this news is really bad news for you."
Ignoring the troubled expression on Oworov's face, Scotair continued:
"Your General Kutuzov fought successive battles with His Majesty the King in East Prussia. Until recently, your army suffered a defeat. All your troops have been left in East Prussia. Of course, your army
His Excellency General Kutuzov is temporarily missing."
Scotair's words made Owolov completely lose the aristocratic reserve that he had always controlled before, and Owolov suddenly jumped up.
"What did you say? Kutuzov was defeated and the army was completely destroyed."
"Yes, Your Excellency, if I understand correctly, your army that invaded our country has been completely wiped out by our brave king."
Scotair's calm words were like a basin of cold water pouring on Owolov from top to bottom. Owolov's face turned pale and he shouted:
"In the name of Her Majesty the Queen, I have discussed peace talks with your country. Your country actually treats our country like this. It is simply too much to bully others."
"Your Excellency Owolov, the entire European continent knows who is bullying others. Your country's behavior is completely provoking our country. Any behavior that provokes our country will definitely be retaliated. And from the root, this time
The war is your country's invasion of our country. His Majesty the King of our country has entrusted me to ask for an explanation from your country, otherwise His Majesty the King of our country will give an explanation to Your Majesty the Queen."
