Struggle in Russia

Vishniak and Alexei thought and thought, and they always felt that Li Xiao’s assertion was a bit exaggerated. Even if the intervention in Wallachia and Austria this time is not an expansion, it has international influence and political significance. It is huge, and it can be regarded as an exciting event. How much has to be expressed, how can it be passed away?

Li Xiao snorted contemptuously: "That's because you don't know my uncle too much. You said bluntly that Paskovic and Duke Mikhail want to be crowned princes. The only possibility is to win Istanbul. The two of them who can drink the Mabosphorus can be crowned prince. There is no other way than that!"

Was it difficult to win Istanbul?

It is really difficult to say, but it is really not difficult to say. Because the main enemy, Turkey, is actually not powerful. If Russia’s only enemy is Turkey, then the difficulty is not to say that cutting melons and vegetables, at least it is also easy to capture.

But the problem is that the enemy is not just Turkey. The eyes of the big powers are fixed here. Russia will cause a chain reaction as long as it makes a small move, and it may interfere in groups. Let’s put it this way, the victory of Istanbul is better than a military issue. Said it is a political issue.

Unless political issues are resolved, Istanbul will never return to the embrace of Christian forces. Obviously, Russia really cannot solve this political problem for the time being, so it can only drool over Istanbul.

Including Vishnyak and Alexei think that they probably won’t see this day in their lifetime, so if you must win Istanbul to get the title of Prince, then Paskovic and Duke Mikhail are useless. !

Alexei whispered: "Your Majesty is unlikely to set such harsh conditions?"

Li Xiao snorted coldly: "Believe it or not, or let's make a bet and block 10,000 rubles. If Paskovic and Duke Mikhail are crowned princes because of their military exploits, I will lose to You two will each have ten thousand rubles. On the contrary, you will lose me ten thousand rubles. How about?"

Alexei and Vishniak both curled their lips and did not speak up. It was not that they had no money and were afraid of losing. Ten thousand rubles is a lot, but for Alexei, who was already wealthy, and Vishnyak, who had made a fortune, this amount of money is really nothing. The reason why they didn't gamble was because they had no bottom in their hearts. After all, no one could say that the dog of Nicholas I had a temper. Maybe he was so stingy!

Besides, what's the point of spending so much money on such a thing? Isn't he good to keep 10,000 rubles in his pocket?

The two are surprisingly consistent: "Don't bet!"

Li Xiao despised them. Now it is getting harder and harder to cheat pocket money from these silly friends. This group of goods is becoming more and more savvy, and the skin is getting thicker, unlike the beginning. You can cheat hundreds or thousands of rubles at will, especially Alexei, this guy is a stupid man with a lot of money...Tsk tsk, this kind of good day is gone forever, sorry!

Not to mention this little bit of resentment in Li Xiao's heart, whether it is Vishniak or Alexei, what I am most concerned about now is how to maximize Wallachia’s merits and Nicholas I’s stinginess. They have already seen it, although this time the medal was given because Lazarev and Duke Mikhail only reported the active acquisition of important information, and they have not reported all the miracles that pitted the Wallachians. It stands to reason. This one can account for the bulk of the final argument.

But both Vishnyak and Alexei were a little worried. What if Nicholas I bounced again and sent them two medals again?

No one is willing to be mediocre. Who doesn't want to return his wife and Yinzi beautifully? Who has no ambitions yet?

Both Vishnyak and Alexei believed that their merits were enough to get promotion and a decent title, but what if Nicholas I continued to play cards without reason to suppress them?

Li Xiao is silent about this, or he has no good way. As the saying goes, he can’t twist his thighs, and it’s meaningless to reason with the power. If the emperor with power doesn’t like you, he has 10,000 ways. It makes you stare.

Even if he had a horrible idea to meet Nicholas I's thick legs, there are not many ways.

"Let's wait patiently, we can't help this matter..." Li Xiao sighed directly.

Vishniak was the first to help it: "This is too passive, right? Always try to get one!"

Alexei also said: "This opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I don't know how long we will have to wait for this opportunity again!"

Is Li Xiao willing to wait passively? I definitely don't want to, but I really don't have a particularly good way to do this for the time being. I can't let the world shout about the "good things" they did in Wallachia right now!

In that case, the Wallachians would be the first to explode, and they would be dragged out in minutes. Moreover, doing this will affect the subsequent arrangement. You can't just mess around for the sake of having fun with that little nobility!

Anyway, Li Xiao would not choose this way. He could only comfortingly said, "Guys, stay calm, don’t worry about this matter! And I didn’t say you can only wait passively! Besides, Alyosha, you His vision is too short-sighted, who told me that there is no chance in the future! I think there may be even greater opportunities in the next few years!"

Neither Vishnyak nor Alexei believed that~www.ltnovel.com~ so they asked separately:

"You didn't say to wait passively, but what you mean is almost the same... Okay, then you talk about how to actively fight for it?"

"There is still a chance in the future? Don't be kidding. This opportunity is rare in a lifetime. The last time we acted in the Balkans was 19 years ago, only once in almost 20 years! Even if we don't wait for 20 years, 10 years are enough. !"

Li Xiao felt more and more headaches, and I really couldn't hurt to meet such a group of teammates who wanted to make contributions and want to go crazy-you guys don't think about Lao Tzu, what can Lao Tzu do under the pressure of Nicholas I! Now this situation is hard to come up with, this is not enough, is it possible that you want Lao Tzu to directly kill Nicholas I to rebel!

Of course, Li Xiao can also understand the urgency of these two goods. Life can last for several decades! Take a look at Prince Alexander and Grand Duke Constantine. Who wouldn’t envy them if you don’t have any credit for the medals.

Not only them, but even the stalkers around them, they earned the credit by flattering and playing with them. If they don’t catch up, what will happen in the future!
