Struggle in Russia

Vol 2 Chapter 362: Selfishness (middle)

Although Robert Cohon felt that Palmerston's warning was a bit too horrifying, he had never heard of the precedent that Whitehall would throw a senior public official into jail. It is not only the glorious tradition of China that does not impose a punishment on doctors. The same is true of Britain.

For senior public officials, the clean hands and feet are really rare. Whether it is greed or open the door to convenience or dereliction of duty or because of IQ restrictions, the guy will do some stupid things.

These stupid things internally know that the internal criticism of three fines will be over, and the most is to let the unlucky offenders hang out and go home to farm. This is the so-called punishment.

Hell, this is unthinkable. If you catch a few mistakes, which senior public officials dare to do their best in the process of serving the queen, is it not interesting to ask for it!

Of course, Cohon was not arrogant enough to ignore Palmerston’s warning, because the wording of the horrified warning letter itself explained the problem, and John Russell had no patience with him at all. This was to completely change the previous The diplomatic strategy dominated by Palmerston. Naturally, the remnants of Palmerston, such as Cohon, must be properly liquidated, at least they must be let out automatically, otherwise it is necessary to kill the chickens and monkeys!

Kehong didn't want to be killed as a chicken, so he knew he had to be aware of the current affairs, and hurriedly submitted his resignation report in order to be idle, instead of being dismissed or something. Active resignation and dismissal are completely two concepts in the Whitehall. The former will be considered sensible, and may turn over in the future. The latter is a big ignorance and must be beaten. It will be difficult to turn over in the future!

"I have submitted my resignation. I believe Istanbul will soon send someone to take my place... Although it is regrettable, I have to say that there is no possibility of recovery at this time!"

Ke Hong's confidants did not have too surprised expressions. Everyone was from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. How could they not know anything? Before they knew that Ke Hong's departure had become a foregone conclusion, but they didn't expect to go so fast.

And this will soon be very unfavorable to these Kehong's confidants. Once the emperor and the courtier, as Kehong's confidante, if they continue to stay in Wallachia, they will definitely not be treated by the next consul general, sit on the cold bench It's almost a stubborn thing.

But who wants to sit on the cold bench? No one wants it!

Ke Hong continued: "You have worked with me for so many years, I fully trust your abilities, I originally wanted to do a career with you, but things are impermanent... But Wallachia's career must not give up halfway!"

Speaking of which, Ke Hong's expression suddenly became serious, and he solemnly said: "Our previous efforts must not be in vain! And the situation in Wallachia is far from the most irreversible. Although the situation We are very disadvantaged, but I believe that as the Russians invade again, everything will change."

"The fragile balance will soon be broken, and no country would want to see polar bears embezzling Wallachia. At that time, Russia will stand on the opposite side of each country, and then it will be our turn to fight back!"

These morale-boosting words have some effect. At least Kehong's confidants listened very carefully, because they knew that what really mattered, Kehong was about to say it!

Kehong took a deep breath and said very seriously: "If we want to fight back, we must be fully prepared, and this requires a large number of elites familiar with the affairs of Wallachia, and these elites are Masters!"

Well, although Ke Hong's confidants somewhat guessed what he meant to express, when they heard Ke Hong's words, everyone inevitably felt disappointed.

why? Because no one wants to stay in this ghost place in Wallachia. People are realistic, even if Ke Hong speaks a decent word with a little encouragement. But in fact the big guys knew that as soon as Kehon left, Wallachia's so-called cause would be paralyzed.

It is no secret that John Russell did not like Palmerston or Cohon's toss in Wallachia. It is conceivable that without Palmerston’s support and without Cohon’s pressure, the new Consul General of Wallachia will definitely not be interested in “nonsense”.

At that time, it was not embarrassing for the so-called elites who were promoted by Kohun to be good at "nonsense", or just to say that it was useless!

It is conceivable that they must stand side by side on the cold bench. It is normal for them to sit idle. As for the counterattack that Kehon said, it was something that Yingdu didn't have, and it might be useless to wait until Huadu was gone.

The most realistic and correct way is to let Cohon take them away, and follow Cohon to leave them valuable and talented, and staying in Wallachia is really a huge pit, okay.

And now Kehong even fooled them to stay in the pit automatically, do you think these people will be comfortable? I'm afraid everyone has only one idea at this moment: "You are a bastard, you are extremely hypocritical! If you have the ability, don't quit your job and leave with us. Let's stay with us and wait for a counterattack!"

It can be said that Kehong's farewell speech was extremely failed. Not only did it not have a positive encouragement effect, but it also defeated the hearts and morale of the people.

So, did Kohon do this because of mistakes, or because he was too keen on the dying struggle of his previous career that he would not give up?

The answer is "hehe"!

In fact, ~www.ltnovel.com~ Kehong didn't mean it at all. He knew the effect of what he just said, he said it on purpose!

why? It can also be said to be unwilling or to vent anger and take revenge on John Russell!

how to say? The brain hole inside is very complicated. In short, Cohon knows that no matter who takes his place, he must do something, but what can he do in Wallachia? Naturally it is a Russian.

Yes, don’t look at John Russell who doesn’t want to toss, but that doesn’t mean he tacitly approves that the Russians wantonly expand their influence in Wallachia, or simply put Wallachia in their pockets. Russell hopes that Wallachia will be restored to its original state, neither independent nor annexed by Russia.

Obviously, the current form of Wallachia is probably not going in this direction. At least the Russians will definitely not agree to go all out for a long time but get nothing. The Russians must expand their influence and influence in Wallachia.

Obviously there is a fundamental conflict with the state of Russell's hopes, that is to say, no matter who will succeed Kokon, it is inevitable for Russia to succeed. And what does Russia need? Naturally, a group of elites familiar with Wallachia is needed...
