Struggle in Russia

Conservative aristocrats can of course figure it out, and they are particularly clear, that is, the food issue is more important than the loss of power and humiliation.

After all, it was Nicholas I who lost his power and humiliated the country, and it has little to do with them. Even if the land was ceded, it would be the land of Nicholas I. As for the indemnity, they would try their best to pass it on to the serfs. What is the loss?

But the food is really my own, and if I miss the harvest season, I have to wait another year. What's more, people will die in war. The strong serfs in their hands are all good at work. It's a pity that they died like this at a good time for them to be cows and horses!

It's just one thing to know these words, but it's another thing to say them. Uvarov, Chernyshov, and others are not as stupid as they are to tell Nicholas I what to say.

But I have to say it. After all, if you keep silent, you will acquiesce to this matter. It is impossible to say that Nicholas I will issue an edict soon, and it will be impossible to restore it.

"Your Majesty, I don't think it's easy to rush this matter." Count Uvarov struggled for a long time and finally stood up.

"Why?" Nicholas I naturally became unhappy when he heard this, and asked with a calm face.

"The recruitment of more soldiers will not only affect the autumn harvest, but will actually affect our already very nervous financial problems," Count Uvarov thought about it for a long time before he finally came up with such an unreasonable reason to prevaricate Gula I.

He said: "If you think about it, recruiting more soldiers, uniforms, weapons, salaries and usual consumption, this will be a huge expenditure of astronomical figures, and it is very likely that before we can defeat the enemy, our finances will be paid first. collapsed!"

Does this make sense? Of course there are, wars must be counted on economic accounts, and military use is definitely self-defeating.

The problem is, it's time to say that. If it was before the outbreak of the war that you, Count Uvarov, had no problem saying that, everyone would still think that you were talking about the country.

However, you didn't say that when Nicholas I shouted and killed! At that time, your old man was the first to jump out and cheer for this, for fear that Nicholas I would not do anything.

Now that the war has entered a critical moment, you suddenly start to calculate the economic accounts. This style of painting is not right!

To put it poorly, you are escaping from the battle, completely ignoring the overall interests of the country and considering personal small accounts, which is simply selfish!

Nicholas I saw it the same way. To say that he had criticized Count Uvarov a few times before, but he was not disappointed.

But now he is really disappointed, oh, if he asks you to ask for serfs, he refuses in every possible way and does not want to agree. Is that what you say about being loyal and patriotic? After doing it for a long time, you are just a villain who says one thing and does another!

Even Nicholas I heard another meaning from Count Uvarov's words, that is, he secretly reminded him not to increase taxes.

Yes, you are always raising money when you open or close your mouth, and now money is really tight. The implication is that if you continue to recruit troops, you can only increase taxes, and tax increases will naturally damage your interests. Is this logical relationship correct?

Of course, that's right. In fact, that's what Count Uvarov meant, but he didn't expect Nicholas I's reaction to be so fast, he could think of it all at once.

According to his plan, he was going to use financial tension to scare Nicholas I first, let him temporarily dismiss the idea of ​​conscription, and then try to slowly find trouble for Count Rostovtsev, the mastermind behind the scenes. Just take a look at it and let someone know that a tiger's **** is untouchable!

"Count, you mean that because of financial constraints, we can't recruit soldiers, otherwise even if we recruit more soldiers, we won't be able to support them, right?"

Count Uvarov did not expect that Nicholas I had seen through his mind, and thought that his words had an effect, causing Nicholas I to reflect, and he was suddenly a little happy, feeling that he had finally pulled a game back.

He nodded again and again and said, "Your Majesty, this is what Wei Chen means. Now forcibly recruiting soldiers is like drinking poison to quench thirst, so you have to be careful!"

Count Uvarov spoke righteously, but for those who have seen through his mind, this is a bit ridiculous.

Anyway, Nicholas I's eyes were uncertain, and he didn't know what he was thinking, while Count Rostovtsev looked like an old **** who didn't care at all, and didn't know what medicine he was selling in his gourd.

For a while, the imperial study was dead silent. Count Uvarov looked at Nicholas I eagerly, hoping that the Supreme would change his mind, and Nicholas I had a gloomy expression and didn't know what he was thinking~www.mtlnovel .com~ As for other people, such as Chernyshov and others, they are willing to help but dare not intervene casually.

In short, people have their own whims, but this silence did not last long, because Nicholas I was a generation of heroes after all. Although he has the problem of being a master and a master, but the means of the emperor are really the tsars standing in the middle of the ancient times. The master of the first echelon.

He didn't get angry, and said slowly to Count Uvarov: "According to the count, we will fight the enemy with the current strength, right?"

Count Uvarov was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that something was wrong, and immediately explained: "Your Majesty has misunderstood, I mean that it is not appropriate to continue recruiting at the moment, whether it is the source of troops or finances are not allowed..."

He was interrupted by Nicholas I before he finished speaking: "When will the source of troops and finances be relieved?"

Count Uvarov was speechless for a while. It really made sense. He was so nervous after fighting for half a year. Do you think it would be easier to continue dragging on Russia? This is not stupid what is it?

So if you wait for the financial and military issues to be eased, it's nonsense, you just want to shirk. Because normal people know that it cannot be relieved, it will only get worse!

Nicholas I ignored Count Uvarov when he said this. First of all, he was too lazy to say it, and secondly, he didn't want to tell the truth. It would be really boring to tell the truth!

He turned his head and instructed Chernyshov: "Another 200,000 young and strong men will be recruited to join the army, and it will be completed within one month!"

Chernyshov looked at Nicholas I and then at Count Uvarov. Obviously, he didn't like the result. He hoped that Count Uvarov would quickly stand up and persuade him, but Count Uvarov At this time, I have already lost my soul, where is there any thought to manage this...
