Struggle in Russia

Of course, Li Xiao is not cold-blooded and numb, but he doesn't want to care about anything, but thinks that people have a sense of self-knowledge and can only do what they can at any time. One step ahead is a genius. Three steps ahead is a fool. Obviously your little arm and calf only have two pounds of strength, but you just want to play a ten-pound sledgehammer, but that's not to death.

Now, whether it is Leonid, or he and Vishniak, etc., there is no way to change the status quo in Russia. The only thing that can be done is to remember these injustices, to record and think about it, and think about it. Think of any way to solve or improve these problems. Then it is to work hard to accumulate strength and strive for an early change of day. This is the correct way.

Put the following letter from Leonid. Li Xiao did not immediately reply to Leonid, because the saint Lord made it clear that Russia is not only worse than logistics, the postal system is as speechless, unless their troops stop Rest, otherwise the letter will never catch up.

And they have just passed a period of rest and will spend at least twenty days in a hurry, so the letter must not be able to keep up.

The second and third letters were somewhat related to Leonid, because it was written by his uncle, Duke Mikhail, and his elder Duke Alexander. There was nothing special in Mikhail ’s letter, mainly telling him that the machine tools and equipment he had bought from abroad and the technicians he had invited were already in place, and that Andre-Leonid rifles could be put into production soon.

This is really good news, but what makes Xiao Xiao a bit speechless is that such a backward gadget Russians are going to buy at least 300,000 in the first batch. My god, how many troops are there in Russia? Is there a million? May be suffocating.

In other words, at least one-third of the Russian army is preparing to replace this non-advanced rifle. To be honest, this is really a waste. Because in a few years, this **** is completely out of date, not much different from burning a fire stick.

After all, the French and the British have begun to popularize the rifle shells with rims filled with paper shells and metal bottom edges. Even if it is still a "single one", the loading speed of the whole shell will definitely hit Andre-Leonid rifles. .

Even real all-metal cartridge shells will soon be available. At that time, the advantage was even greater. What's the point of a large number of Russian equipment equipped with a weapon that will be completely obsolete within a few years?

The only thing that makes Xiao Xiao happy is that for every Andre Leonid rifle he produces, he can reap a royalties of one ruble, which is 300,000, which is a small income of 300,000. This is really a night of riches!

Of course, one night is too exaggerated, because with the production capacity of the Russian state-run Tula gun factory and the small factory joint venture between Li Xiao and the Duke of Mikhail, it would take several years to produce 300,000 rifles. This is where the Duke of Mikhail vomited that he should not fire a gun factory, and at least the profits of at least the first 100,000 rifles were thrown in.

Of course, Li Xiao couldn't tell his long-term plans. He could only tell him that the Andre-Leonid rifle would soon be outdated. Once Russia intended to switch to a more advanced rifle, there was no qualified machine tool and technician. , They will soon be eliminated and no money to make.

Of course, Li Xiao can guess the mind of Duke Mikhail somehow. He doesn't think that Andre-Leonid rifle will be eliminated soon, and even if it does become obsolete soon, he has a way to let the Russian army. Continue to continue to purchase, after all, as an army lord, in order to take care of his own business, he does not mind letting his comrades-in-arms and his subordinates recommend Andre-Leonid rifles, and opposes the use of more expensive and more complicated advanced rifles.

And that's the power of bureaucracy. They have a million ways to do you bad things. Reversing the black and white deer for horses is even more pediatric. Especially in a backward country like Russia, the energy of the bureaucracy is so large that it makes you doubt your life.

Therefore, Li Xiao could only warmly comfort the Duke of Mikhail, telling the veteran to replace the Russian army with an updated rifle, which is actually a more money-based business. He wrote in the letter:

"Duke, you see, we have purchased the latest machine tools and foreign skilled technicians, which are necessary for the production of newer rifles in the future. Now the Tula Gun Factory does not have the same equipment as ours, so we also produce Can't update the rifle ... Once you can convince the Army to purchase an updated rifle, then this list will be produced only by our gun factory for the time being. This is a separate sale! No more profit sharing to Tulaqiang than now? "

Li Xiao knew that the old fox would be able to calculate the account, so he didn't say more, but instead wrote the letter to the Duke Alexander very seriously. Compared with the Duke of Mikhail, the Duke wrote more. The meaning helped him even more.

The Duke of Alexander inquired carefully about his situation in Wallachia, and told Li Xiao that if he was in trouble, he could contact his friends in Wallachia. Although not necessarily a big help, the turnover of funds was trivial. .

Even the Duke of Alexander told him that once the situation was particularly bad, if he could not flee to Turkey, he could go to Serbia. He had more friends in the Grand Duchy of Serbia and had no problem sheltering them.

Although Li Xiao is temporarily unavailable, UU reads www.uukanshu.com, but this sentiment is still appreciated, not to mention that in the letter, the Duke of Alexander praised Li Xiao for his vision and expressed his appreciation for his analysis of the situation in Austria. I agree with his idea of ​​dismembering Austria. The only pity is that this is practically impossible.

Of course, these are not the most important. The most important thing is that the Duke of Alexander asked him in the letter about his views on the current international situation and hoped that he would speak freely.

This made Li Xiao very happy, because for the first time he had the possibility to directly influence the great figure of the Duke of Alexandria. This meant that he had the possibility to influence the highest levels of Russia. If he could be persuaded to guide the Duke of Alexander to accept his opinions, he would not be completely passively beaten when facing the family of Nicholas I.

So Li Xiao immediately combined history and wrote a long letter to the Duke Alexander to analyze the political situation in Austria. In the letter, he boldly predicted: "I am afraid that the Austrian army cannot do with the insurgents, which means that the Hapsburg family may not be able to. Rely on his own power to calm down the rebellion ... "

"Then the only person they can call for help is our country. This is a good opportunity. I suggest you play a role in resisting the negative influence of Count Nielsen Roddie and strive for better conditions for our country as much as possible. My country is profiting in the direction of Wallachia and Moldavia ... "
