Oworov was completely stunned by Scotair's words. He could not ignore the threat implicit in Scotair's words. Thinking of the situation in Poland, if the Prussians with the power of victory and those Poles
If we join forces, can the situation in Poland be saved? Thinking of this, Oworov immediately bid farewell to Scotair, and he wanted to convey the news to Her Majesty the Queen as soon as possible.
Owolov, who was walking in a hurry at that time, did not see the anxious gaze of Scotair behind him. Scotair's behavior just now was largely due to William's instruction. In William's letter to him, he emphatically stated that he wanted to
Skottier must show a very tough stance towards the Russians.
As a senior diplomat, Scotair has a very deep understanding of the Russian Empire. Once this huge polar bear gets angry, it is no joke, but he cannot go against William's instructions, so in
After dealing with Oworov, an anxious look naturally appeared in his eyes.
In fact, William had no idea how to deal with the Russians, but he knew that he must not show cowardice. How could Prussia, which was close to northern Poland, not know about the turmoil in Poland? And when he learned about it,
After hearing the news, William understood that his opportunity had come.
Russia has very rich interests in Poland. The Russians will never sit back and watch Poland become turbulent. Now the Polish uprising army has become more and more troublesome, and it is about to become a prairie fire. At this time, if
If the Russians were still relatively sober, they probably wouldn't provoke Prussia.
And even if the Russians are determined to go to war with Prussia, the first thing they have to do is to calm down the situation in Poland. Of course, it is not ruled out that the Russians directly send naval ships to carry troops to land on Prussia’s Baltic Sea coast, but this will inevitably affect Russia
The size of the army and the logistics of the army cannot be guaranteed. In a war, a stable logistics line is worth tens of thousands of troops.
Therefore, before the unrest in Poland was quelled, the possibility of Russia declaring war on Prussia was almost zero. This was William's greatest reliance. Based on the situation in Russia, William felt it was necessary to make the Russians aware of the threat from Prussia.
William told Scottil that if conditions were necessary, he could directly declare to the queen that Prussia would send reinforcements to support the just cause of the Polish people. Of course, this would depend on the price the queen was willing to pay.
As for King Augustus of Poland, William doesn't quite believe it. If things go wrong, Poland may once again side with Russia. But even so, William believes that the Polish uprising, which has already spread like a prairie fire, is impossible because of the king.
position changes.
Although there are many reasons for a fire to start, it is not that simple to put it out immediately. Sometimes it only takes a spark to start a fire, but it takes a lot of effort to put out the fire.
After Ovolov hurriedly left the Prussian Embassy, he immediately ordered the carriage to drive to the palace. This news was so important that he needed to report it to Catherine II as soon as possible.
"Damn Kutuzov, I want his life. 20,000 troops, a whole 20,000 troops, he actually lost it to me." Catherine II was stunned when she heard Ovorov's report.
Then he became angry.
"Your Majesty the Queen, I think it may be those Prussians who are trying to confuse us with their nonsense," Owolov hurriedly advised while seeing the Queen's raging anger.
But Ovorov's words did not calm the queen's anger. The queen cursed Kutuzov and reprimanded:
"Ovorov, use your brain. Kutuzov has not contacted St. Petersburg for so long. Of course, this can be said to be that he wants to hide it from everyone, but will the Prussians joke with us about this news?
Moreover, our intelligence agency has not heard from Kutuzov for a long time, doesn’t that mean something?”
Oworov, who was choked by the Queen, had no choice but to shut his mouth tightly. In fact, Owolov also thought in his heart that the Prussian ambassador would not joke with him on this issue. What he said just now was undoubtedly
Comforting the queen.
After being furious for a while, Catherine II suppressed her emotions and said with a slightly off-key accent:
"What else did the Prussians say?"
"I dare not"
"Stop talking nonsense, just say what you are told! Do you want to go against me too!"
"Your Majesty, the Prussian ambassador said that the little king of Prussia has entrusted him to ask for an explanation from you. If you don't give him an explanation, then he will give you an explanation."
Ovorov finished his words tremblingly, and his tone of voice was also very low. He understood that these words were undoubtedly the little king's provocation to Catherine II.
"Damn, even children dare to challenge me now. Okay, the little king wants me to give an explanation. Then I will give it to him. Ovolov ordered the troops in St. Petersburg and Moscow to prepare. I will give it.
His term is iron and blood."
After listening to Owolov's words, Catherine II was already extremely angry and laughed.
"Haha, does he really think that I dare not go to war with Prussia?"
As Catherine II said that, she looked at Ovorov. Under Catherine II's gaze, Ovorov's standing body seemed to be shaking a little, as if he had been in a high position all year round.
The coercion developed is frightening.
"Haha, that boy is really good at timing. Let's let him take advantage this time. Ovolov, go and contact the Prussian ambassador again. If Prussia's conditions are not too outrageous, then accept it.
Okay, you go down."
With that, Catherine II gave the order to leave, and Owolov also bowed respectfully to Catherine II and then turned and left the room.
"What an interesting little guy. It would be great if my child could have such courage." After no one was around, Catherine II sighed quietly. She has always been the son of a tiger father.
The deepest thorn in my heart.
When Catherine II lamented that the father of a tiger was like a dog, her son, Crown Prince Paul, was also thinking about her.
As a favorite of Catherine II, Ovolov was naturally surrounded by Paul's informants, and the news that Ovorov had hurriedly left the Prussian embassy for the palace also reached his ears immediately.
.
For this one of the murderers who killed his father, apart from the woman, Paul hated the Oworov brothers the most, and whenever he saw that woman and Owolov's evil offspring, Paul wanted to kill him.
, but he kept reminding himself not to be impulsive.
When Paul was young, one of his teachers once told him that he should behave like a wolf. Wolves are not only cruel creatures but also very united. Wolves know their own division of labor, what they should do and what they should not do.
Destined, every wolf pack can cooperate very well. What's more important is that wolves know how to be patient. For a prey, wolves can quietly lurk for a week, and they will not give up their goals until the end.
.
When the young Paul asked the teacher what forbearance was, the teacher whispered in Paul's ear:
"You are the only one of your mother's children who has the blood of the Romanov dynasty. You will eventually rule the entire Russian Empire, but you must remember that the road to the throne is full of thorns, many of which will kill you.
No matter what happens, you must learn to endure. Only through endurance can you rise above those ten thousand people, and only through endurance can you avenge your father."
The teacher's words took root in little Paul's mind. Even now, no matter what kind of provocation he receives on any occasion, Crown Prince Paul always remembers what the teacher taught him to be patient!
Now it seems that Paul is weak and can be bullied. In fact, it is all Paul's disguise, and this disguise also won Paul some sympathy from the royalists. Even decades later, Catherine II conspired to usurp the throne.
It still makes many people resentful, and many of them were recruited by Paul.
On the surface, as long as you have enough favor from the Queen, you can make fun of Paul at will, but if you want to deprive Paul of the title of crown prince, even Catherine II cannot accomplish this.
"Teacher, Oworov just went to see that woman in a hurry. What do you think made our Earl so anxious?"
In a room, Paul looked at the people around him and said, sitting next to Paul was also his teacher Pan Ning.
"Your Highness, I think the reason why His Excellency Owolov is so anxious to go to the palace to see His Majesty is because he must have received some very important news."
Pan Ning replied, as Paul's teacher, Pan Ning has attracted the attention of everyone in the Russian Empire, and many people want to dismiss Pan Ning. Some people who don't know the reason think that the reason why Paul became like this is entirely because of
Pan Ning did not fulfill his duties properly.
Of course, after the death of Paul's childhood teacher, Pan Ning was sent by the Queen to serve as Paul's mentor, so many people believed that Pan Ning was wronged, but no matter what, only Pan Ning knew how terrifying the mind of the crown prince in front of him was.
In fact, when Pan Ning was selected as Paul's teacher, Paul strongly opposed it. In Paul's heart, the only person who could be called his teacher was always the teacher who told him to learn to be a wolf.
Soon after Pan Ning became Paul's teacher, Paul arranged a trap to catch Pan Ning and force Pan Ning to do things for him. Pan Ning had no choice but to accept this fate. At the same time, Pan Ning transferred the Queen to Pan Ning.
The task assigned to him to monitor Paul was also explained to Paul, but Paul was not surprised and just said lightly:
"Except for my closet, there are people watching me everywhere, but there are many who are in the same situation as you."
This sentence made Pan Ning's hair stand on end.
