Struggle in Russia - Vol 3 Chapter 729
“Struggle in Tsarist Russia (
Alexei knew that Duke Mikhail was in a hurry, but he didn’t expect him to be in such a hurry. In his opinion, sabotage behind enemy lines is nothing more than petty trouble. Even if it can cause some trouble for the enemy, it is too unrealistic to rely on it to share the pressure of the frontal battlefield.
It’s just that Duke Mikhail specially sent someone to urge him to make a gesture. He graciously entertained Duke Mikhail’s adjutant, and then told him that everything was going smoothly, and there would be results soon.
Of course, after the adjutant left, Alexei also changed his expression. Although he didn’t pay much attention to this matter, he also knew that according to Li Xiao’s plan, first of all, he would strengthen the training of the Bulgarians and help them train qualified soldiers as soon as possible. Only then will they intervene in combat.
If the Bulgarians are better trained, it is very likely that Boris’s people will not be directly involved in the battle, but will be engaged in training and securing the transport of funds.
Alexey hopes that the best is the case. It is best not to play if his own people can’t play. Bullets don’t have long eyes. Let the Bulgarians fill the hole themselves.
“It’s not that simple,” Li Xiao sighed after hearing about the incident, “Vishniak and Boris said that the Bulgarians are not a small problem. On the surface, there are quite a few people organized, but most of them are rabble and combat effectiveness. Not worth mentioning at all.”
After speaking, he sighed again and continued: “And the composition is complicated. Many people are serfs and servants of the local nobles. White ticket weapons and ammunition…”
Alexei opened his mouth and wanted to scold, but he was already mentally prepared for this, and the Bulgarian’s slapstick behavior seemed too normal to him. Everyone has selfishness. He and Li Xiao’s selfishness is to grab some money from Bulgaria, and it is reasonable for the Bulgarians to have selfishness from them!
Anyway, everyone gets what they need because of their own interests, and it is not appropriate to insist on the outline.
“Then what is Vishniak going to do? It’s impossible to give them arms and ammunition for nothing, right?”
“Of course not. He’s not that stupid. He’s almost reached an agreement. If you want weapons and ammunition, you have to exchange things for them.”
Alexey frowned and asked, “In exchange for something? Money?”
Li Xiao laughed and said: “He and the Bulgarians can’t be that stupid. Exchange money for that is to do business, our purpose is not just to make money, and it is too ugly to make money to eat, and it is inevitable that the Bulgarians will hate it. As far as my heart is concerned… it will be a huge loss for us to play away from home again!”
“Then what is he going to do?”
“The weapons and ammunition have to be exchanged with the heads of the Turks, which is roughly three heads plus ten rubles for a rifle…”
Alexei was stunned, because it was unheard of to do this. Money may still be a small problem for Bulgarians, but a Turk’s head is a big problem.
If they want weapons and ammunition, they can only slaughter the Turks. Seeing that the Turks are not leeks that can be harvested casually.
This is forcing Bulgaria to make enmity with Turkey, and even if the Bulgarians go out and recklessly harvest the Turks, they will always drive the Turks crazy, and they will inevitably be surrounded and suppressed. At that time, with the firepower of the Bulgarians, it was impossible not to suffer losses in front of the Turks, and it was impossible to unilaterally strengthen the power.
In this way, the Bulgarians can only bite the bullet and confront the Turks, and they must rely more and more on their assistance, so that they can be controlled.
“It’s too bad, you must have come up with this method!”
In the face of Alexei’s accusation, Li Xiao spread his hands and said: “This is really not what I came up with, I just reminded Vishniak and let him try to make the Bulgarians and the Turks enmity, only in this way they will obey our arrangements.”
Alexei asked: “The Bulgarians will do it?”
Li Xiao smiled and said, “Of course not! It’s just…”
“Just what?”
“It’s just that there are always those who are not afraid of death. After all, not all Bulgarian nobles have a good life, and there are always those who are fed up and have enough losses and are ready to go out. Vishniak and Boris found this. A few, they are happy to trade Turkish heads for things!”
Alexei’s eyes widened, and it was filled with incredible writing. He couldn’t believe that Bulgarians would really be fooled, because it was obvious that drinking poison to quench thirst!
Li Xiao replied leisurely: “Drinking poison to quench thirst is better for some Bulgarians than starving to death on the spot!”
Alexei stopped talking for a moment. If it was a few years ago, he would definitely not believe it, but now he has seen the living conditions of too many people at the bottom, and he knows that for those who are desperate, as long as they have food to eat are willing to do.
Li Xiao added: “Of course, these people are still relatively few, so we must add fire!”
Alexei knew subconsciously that this fire would definitely make Bulgarians more uncomfortable~www.mtlnovel.com~Someone’s tricks and tricks are no joke.
“what are you planning to do?”
Li Xiao smiled and said: “I hope that the propaganda department will increase its efforts to report the great achievements of the Bulgarians behind the enemy, and we must let the whole Europe notice that they are on our side, especially let the Turks notice that the Bulgarians are doing What did they do? When necessary, they can make up a little more stories and exaggerate their achievements…”
Alexei was dumbfounded. If Vishniak’s method was only seven points negative, then Li Xiao’s move was very vicious. That’s what puts Bulgarians on fire.
You think that they were already at odds with the Turks, and then the whole of Europe knew that Russia turned against Turkey for Bulgaria. At this time, the Bulgarians stabbed Turkey in the back. Do you think the Turks will make it easier for them?
It is impossible to say that some grumpy Turks will retaliate. As long as they are in the fire, they will soon be killed, and they will not be able to stop at that time.
Alexey took a deep breath, and fell to the ground in admiration for Li Xiao’s despicableness. Only a brain like him could come up with such a vicious and disgusting conspiracy.
“I’m afraid the Bulgarians will be mad at you!” he exclaimed.
“That’s what they asked for!” Li Xiao replied nonchalantly.
Yes, he had a really bad opinion of the Bulgarian nobility. Although the main responsibility for this war lies in the ambitions of Nicholas I. However, some nobles in Bulgaria also played a role in the fire. If they had not been jumping up and down, Nicholas I might not be so determined, but after the outbreak of the war, the performance of these guys was really speechless.
Li Xiao felt that it was reasonable for them to pay a little price!
