Struggle in Russia

Vol 2 Chapter 484: The guest of honor

Because of Li Xiao's "magnanimity", the talks can naturally continue in a cordial and friendly atmosphere.

Li Xiao’s answer is: "As long as you guarantee that you can pay in accordance with the contract, the weapons and ammunition will be safely delivered to your hands..."

This answer was not only expected by Kosut, but also unexpected. He knows very well that capitalists want to eat people. If the problem of money does not satisfy them, the goods will naturally be out of hand.

In this regard, Kossuth is not particularly nervous, because the parliament is still very generous to him, especially the reasonable requirements for arms expansion and preparation for war. Even if the waistband is tightened, the parliament can still come up with money, and the number may not be completely enough. , But it will definitely give.

For him, as long as he has weapons and ammunition, less is better than nothing, isn't it? What's more, Li Xiao even said that weapons and ammunition can be safely delivered to them. There is no need to worry about the transportation. Then they will go to the Transylvania border to pick up the goods.

To tell the truth, this really surprised Kosut, because transportation is a big problem in his understanding. Since Hungary rejected the autonomy requirements of Croatian, Serbian and other minorities, everyone has completely turned their faces and met each other.

The Wallachiians of Transylvania are also included in this list, and of course Kosut feels that even if Hungary agrees to Wallachia's request for autonomy in Transylvania. This group of goods will not go towards Hungary, because the Wallachiians have completely offended Russia, how dare they offend Austria at the same time!

So when Li Xiao said that the passage in Transylvania had been opened and the arms could be safely transported to Hungary, how surprised Kossuth was, because this is simply an impossible task, OK!

At this time, it was Perth’s turn to help Li Xiao brag: “Mr. Diomede has a very good relationship with the Wallachia Provisional Government. As long as it is Mr. Diomede’s request, even if it’s difficult, Wallachia People are happy to be satisfied too!"

This news immediately made Kossuth very interested. He had learned a little bit about Wallachia’s affairs and knew that the Wallachia Provisional Government was already in jeopardy, but even so, the provisional government was still in the Wallachia civilians. It's prestigious, and someone can make the provisional government buy it like this, that energy is really great!

If you can use this powerful hand to promote the reconciliation of Transylvania and Hungary, even if it is a temporary truce, it can alleviate the terrible situation of Hungary being attacked by the enemy. It seems that he can strengthen cooperation with this Mr. Diomede!

Speaking of this, some friends may be confused, what Wallachia, what Moldavia, what is Sarabia is enough annoying, how come out of Transylvania now?

In fact, it's very simple, these few guys are closely related to the Romanians later. To put it simply, the Romanian territory was still a fragmented platter in 1848. Bessarabia was acquired by Russia after the Eighth Russo-Turkish War, while Transylvania was always under the control of Hungary or Austria of the Habsburgs. Moldavia and Wallachia are self-governing grand duchy of Turkey in name.

But, the revolution in 1848 turned against Wallachia and Moldavia, and then forced Russia to suppress it. Since Transylvania belonged to Hungary controlled by Austria, it also demanded autonomy with the Hungarians, and then did not negotiate, so it could not go with Hungary, and continued to confuse with Austria against the Hungarian revolution.

Later, after the First World War, the leaders of the Allied Powers, Britain and France, in order to commend Romania's dedication and dismember the Austro-Hungarian Empire, they forcibly dismembered Transylvania from the territory of Hungary and rewarded Romania.

Of course, these are all things to follow, so I won't mention them for now. Just now, Kosut is very annoyed at Transylvania who is not cooperating. It is clear that everyone is a revolutionary and a vulnerable group who opposes oppression. Your compatriots have had an ups and downs in Wallachia and Moldavia, but you turned your head around and sweared at our Hungarian anti-Austrian revolutionary actions. This is not appropriate!

However, because of the surrounding situation of Austria and Russia, as well as Croatia and Serbia in the south, Kosut really did not have the energy to clean up the weak Transylvania in the east. He could only stare at him before.

And now Li Xiao’s arrival has given him hope. Not to mention that someone is going to settle the Transylvania rebellion, that is unrealistic, but it is always okay to let them stop and open the door for a while?

Naturally, Li Xiao's value in Kosut's eyes was greatly improved. He became a foreign profiteer and friend, so he suddenly became more enthusiastic.

Li Xiao didn’t have much opinion on this, anyway, he knows the Wallachiians too well, don’t look at the transylvanian Principality who is screaming fiercely, but this group of goods are actually nasty, that is, they have a loud voice. That's all, it really made them die with the Hungarians, that really couldn't be done.

What's more, by virtue of his friendly relationship with Jan Constantine, Li Xiao can actually speak in Transylvania, and it is completely possible to let this group of counsellors turn one eye and close one eye. .

Naturally, Li Xiao also actively expressed his willingness to serve as a bridge between Hungary and Transylvania~www.ltnovel.com~ and is willing to do his best to promote the settlement of the two parties.

In this way, it is naturally even more joyous for the guest of honor. The happy Kosut also left Li Xiao and Perth for dinner together for an unprecedented time. It was the chat until late at night. If it weren't for him, he would have to deploy Jani. , No, it is to deploy a revolutionary strategy, and the sincerity may be discussed overnight.

This trip was a good start for Li Xiao, and it was a real connection with Kosut. Then he only needs to exert his influence in a subtle way. Of course, Li Xiao was not particularly proud, because he also saw that Kosut was a particularly arrogant and persistent person. He would not be domesticated as easily as the Jan Constantine brothers. It is almost impossible to make him obedient. Task completed.

Fortunately, Li Xiao doesn't need Kosut to be completely obedient. He only needs the other party to listen to some of his opinions, such as asking Joseph Bem to come out, for example, to make the Hungarian parliament pay more easily.

Of course, Li Xiao knows that this has to be done step by step. The most important thing now is his ability and sincerity that Kosut can see. The first thing to do is to send the two thousand gift rifles to Hungary. Only if this is done. , It will be logical later!

It's just that he received a bad news right away: "What? Kuzha came out to make trouble?"
