Struggle in Russia

Vol 2 Chapter 471: 1 shot to go (top)

Although the Earl of Perth is a royal Orleans, but his **** is not too crooked, he also knows that the biggest purpose of the Holy League and the Vienna system is to restrict France. This **** system has tied France firmly, unless France has the strength to overturn the Holy Alliance, or else do not want to dominate Europe again.

If Austria can be weakened, it will naturally be a major benefit to France. However, although the rotten thing of the Holy League has been weakened by the revolution, Russia's strength is still there, and Nicholas I was a born counter-revolutionary madman, and has always hated France.

With this metamorphosis that would rather deplete Russia's national power and stifle the revolution and France, the Earl of Perth did not think the Austrian revolution had any future.

Li Xiao nodded, and didn't refute Perth's words, because they didn't say anything wrong, which is the case. What he wants to say is: "Yes, on the whole, the Hungarians have no future and are destined to be strangled... But this does not mean that we can only sit and watch, and it does not mean that we cannot get enough benefits. !"

Perth just listened quietly. After experiencing so many things at his age, he would have passed the stage where he would be **** after a few words. It is not the first time that he has seen other people's pie. He will never draw conclusions easily before seeing something true and credible.

Naturally, Li Xiao could also see Perth's calmness, knowing that the consul general is the one who doesn't see rabbits and scatters eagles, and can't just paint cakes with him, and he has to show tangible things to impress him.

Therefore, Li Xiao continued to say slowly: "Although the Hungarian Revolutionary Party is destined to have no great future, if they can be used to inflict significant damage on the Habsburg family, it is also a great achievement. Even if it is properly manipulated, it will also give Austria and A major Russian kill is also extremely possible!"

Perth is still quiet, because this is simple to say but difficult to do. Now everyone knows that they can support the Hungarians against Austria and Russia, but how to support it? At least France and Hungary have no borders at all, even if they give money for guns, they can't be shipped in.

Not to mention that France is also a mess, and there is no ability to give substantial support to the Hungarians, so this is still empty talk!

Of course, Li Xiao was not talking in empty talk, because he immediately gave the real thing: "Obviously, there is no such ability and method in China for the time being... neither money nor weapons and ammunition, but the dear count, if Can I solve this problem?"

The Earl of Perth was taken aback, glanced suspiciously at Li Xiao and then said calmly: "Mr. Diomede, please forgive me... You just said that you are capable of supporting the Hungarian Revolutionary Party? I heard it right?"

Li Xiao smiled and said, "Of course you heard it right! I did say so!"

The Earl of Perth was even more surprised, and said: "Then what are you going to do?"

Li Xiao smiled and asked the question again: "Do you think that if I support a part of the Hungarian arms, can I win their friendship?"

The Earl of Perth was stunned: "Of course, as long as you can tell, then you are the most popular friend of the Hungarian Revolutionary Party!"

As soon as the voice fell, he couldn't wait to ask: "But, is this really possible?"

Li Xiao smiled slightly and did not directly answer Perth. Instead, he turned his head to look at David Lebeuf next to him. The latter naturally asked Xiange to know Yayi and immediately replied: "Count, I have introduced you before. Mr. Diomede’s work in Wallachia was greatly appreciated by Mr. Perrier and Mr. Pellaini!"

The Earl of Perth was taken aback and told the truth. He didn't take it seriously when Lebeauf introduced him. Who wouldn't know how to put gold on your own face! Nine of the people who came to see him would say that he had done what he had done and made great achievements and shocked the world. Anyway, after he was shocked, he was completely numb and would not take it seriously.

But now I see Lebeuf's meaning, people are not bragging about satellites, this feeling is true!

He immediately said: "Sorry, the situation in Hungary has been bad recently, and my main energy has been on Hungary..."

The implication is that I didn't care much about Wallachia, and I asked for clarification. Lebeuf naturally smiled and introduced Li Xiao's achievements in Wallachia vividly, and he was immediately dumbfounded for Perth.

"Unexpectedly, Mr. Diomede, you have done so many things for the country. It is really admirable!" Perth immediately put on a high hat and asked: "Then how do you support the Hungarian revolution? Where are the party members?"

Li Xiao smiled calmly and said: "I am going to give them two thousand rifles and corresponding ammunition first. What do you think?"

Are two thousand rifles a lot? Naturally it is not too much, but the time and occasion for scoring is a generous gift for the current Hungarians, let alone two thousand rifles equal to two hundred rifles.

Now they are collecting weapons and ammunition across the country, and then desperately arming the National Army, not to mention rifles, even the old antique matchlock guns are always coming!

With the 2,000 rifle meeting ceremony, the Hungarians will definitely give a lot of face, but for the Earl of Perth, this is not enough. After all, this increase in strength is not enough to tickle Austria and Russia. ~www.ltnovel.com~ And at this time Li Xiao continued: "Other weapons and equipment cannot be given away. If the Hungarians have money, I still have at least 50,000 rifles for sale here, and no less than A hundred 12-pounder guns and corresponding shells and gunpowder are available for sale!"

Perston was stunned. He couldn't believe his ears at all. These weapons and ammunition were enough to arm two armies. For the Hungarians who lacked weapons and ammunition, it was simply a booster!

The question is where do so many weapons and ammunition come from? Fortunately, Perth is not stupid, and immediately caught a key word-Wallachia. Someone came from Wallachia, and it’s normal to bring arms from there, but the question is, aren’t the Wallachiians repaired by Russia and Turkey? There is no port in Wallachia and it is impossible to obtain arms from overseas!

Perth was full of question marks. He couldn't guess how Li Xiao manipulated it, and the latter was not interested in explaining clearly. If you want to ask it is a trade secret, you can say whether this transaction can be done!

For Perth, this transaction can be done naturally. In fact, Hungarians have been trying to buy arms from the international market at high prices, but one has no outlets, and no one dares to offend Austria and Russia at the same time. Can't buy anything...
