Chapter 455 No Need to Worry

Therefore, Grand Duke Constantine was vague on the Turkish issue, which seemed to avoid the conflict with Menshikov, but in fact it made his old father very unhappy. In comparison, which one is more important between Nicholas I and Menshikov? Is it difficult to weigh it?

Kornilov asked: "Are you 100% sure that His Majesty holds a strong stance?"

Li Xiao smiled bitterly and said: "I'm not sure, but 100% sure. The turmoil in Bulgaria was completely caused by His Majesty. With his character, how can he give up if he doesn't achieve his goal?"

Nasimov said: "Does this mean that Grand Duke Constantine is going to hit a wall on this issue?"

"It's not about hitting a wall! It's about being taught a lesson. You'll see later that he can't get anything good from him!"

Kornilov frowned and asked: "In that case, if His Majesty really taught the Grand Duke a lesson, would he..."

Li Xiao knew what Kornilov was worried about. If Grand Duke Constantine didn't wake up after being taught a lesson, he wouldn't be worthy of sitting in the position he is in today. It was obvious that with his IQ he could immediately realize what his old father's position was on the Bulgarian issue.

In this way, he, who is trying every possible means to be a good son, will definitely be flattered in every possible way. With his no lower limit, he may change from a hesitant fence-sitter to a violent radical who shouts for fighting and killing.

In that case, he will definitely force Kornilov and Nassimov to take tough measures, which is not a good thing!

Li Xiao also fell silent, because after this situation occurred, Kornilov and Nassimov did not have many choices. They could either cooperate with Grand Duke Constantine and shout to kill, or the fake radicals would be exposed for their true nature. The essence of a conservative.

Given Nicholas I's personality, what would he think? He must have hated Kornilov and Nassimov from the bottom of his heart. This is a pain in the ass!

"So we must calm down this storm as soon as possible!" Li Xiao sighed, "This matter must be settled before Grand Duke Constantine learns His Majesty's true attitude. We must not delay it. The longer we delay, the more passive we will become!"

"What should we do?" Nasimov asked.

Li Xiao smiled bitterly and said: "In addition to satisfying Menshikov, what else can we do?"

"You say so?" Nasimov hesitated.

Li Xiao replied categorically: "Yes, come up with a draft that Menshikov can accept.

As long as the old eunuch is satisfied, it doesn't matter even if Kostya is vague and doesn't give an accurate letter! "

The truth is this. The problem is that it is not easy to satisfy Menshikov. Although this old eunuch was hooking up with Neserrodie behind the scenes, on the surface he was Nicholas I's loyal dog, and he looked like he was dedicated to solving his emperor's problems. Anyway, no one would think that he was actually a man just by looking at the surface. Conservatives do not want war with Turkey.

In order to maintain his pretense, Menshikov definitely cannot accept a perfunctory plan that seems to be useless at first glance. What he needs is a plan that looks tough but will not actually irritate Turkey. Solution for sensitive nerves.

This kind of plan is not that easy to come up with. At least Li Xiao himself doesn't have any ideas, but here he even gave Kornilov and Nasimov ideas and asked them to come up with a solution. This is also a scam!

"Let's try our best!" Kornilov sighed, scratched the increasingly sparse head of his head and lamented: "But this is too difficult, and we are not sure that we can do it!"

Li Xiao also knew that it was indeed a bit difficult, so he also sighed and said: "If it doesn't work, you can fool him with a radical plan. If he doesn't agree, you can continue to come up with the same radical plan, even if in the end Constan It doesn’t matter if Grand Duke Ding reacts!”

Kornilov and Nasimov looked at each other and felt that this was a bit self-defeating. If the war was really caused by Grand Duke Konstantin's anger, it would be difficult to explain, right?

"There's nothing hard to explain!" Li Xiao sighed, "We can't let us block the train, right? There are some people who want to die and can't be stopped. Instead of thinking about those nonsense, It's better to prepare in advance, you two, don't put too much pressure on yourself, work hard to do what you need to do, make plans as needed, and just stick to a radical attitude. The focus is still on supervising defense projects, this is the foundation! "

Obviously Li Xiao was prepared for the worst. Rather than spending all his time dealing with these two troublesome men, Menshikov and Grand Duke Constantine, he might as well just jump out and do his own thing. Be War Ready There is nothing better than being prepared for the worst!

"I am also preparing to return to Bucharest. If nothing else happens, it is unlikely that I will come to Sevastopol again this year." Li Xiao said to Kornilov and Nassimov with emotion, "Friends Everyone, I hope everything goes well for you, prepare for the worst and prepare sufficient supplies, the worst is coming soon!"

Kornilov and Nasimov were not in a good mood either. Not only did Li Xiao's judgment make them feel pessimistic, but these messy things also made them upset. But they also know that there is no use in complaining and complaining. The only thing that is useful is to be down-to-earth and prepared.

Li Xiao left Sevastopol with a determined attitude. When leaving the dock by boat, he looked at the fortress city from the sea. In history, this city suffered cruel destruction. The British, French and Russian armies launched a confrontation with corpses everywhere. It can be said that every inch of land outside the city was soaked in blood.

Not only did the soldiers suffer heavy losses, but the soldiers and civilians in the city also had a hard time. The brutal siege lasted for a year, and the plague was rampant. It was simply a hell on earth.

But even if Li Xiao knew the tragic consequences, he was powerless to stop it. He could only hope that his friends would have better luck and not lose their lives in vain.

The atmospheres in Wallachia and Sevastopol are completely different. Although Wallachia has entered a state of full war preparations early according to the orders of Li Xiao and Alexei, it has been hoarding supplies, repairing fortifications, and training new recruits almost non-stop.

But for the Wallachians, especially the Wallachian nobles, there was no nervousness at all. They were generally optimistic about the possibility of future war. It's not that they think the war will not break out, but they think that even if the war breaks out, it will end quickly. Compared with the strong polar bears, Turkey is like a rough old man.

Most of the Wallachian nobles believe that Turkey will collapse in one strike, and that the liberation of Bulgaria is within easy reach, and there is no need to worry about it at all...
