Struggle in Russia

Chapter 227 New Strategy (Part 2)

Only then did Kornilov and Nasimov know what Li Xiao wanted to do. If he went to provoke Shuvalov now, he might be misunderstood by the latter as the order of Grand Duke Constantine. After all, in the eyes of outsiders, these reformers must be all the way, and this time, Grand Duke Constantine has gained the most, so if you don’t want to vent to the mastermind behind the scenes, who can you vent to?

Kornilov and Nasimov secretly laughed when they thought of the scene where Shuvalov and others were angered by Li Xiao and finally vented to Grand Duke Constantine.

Although doing so was indeed a bit detrimental, they were not blind. They had seen the performance of Grand Duke Constantine in the past two days, and they knew that this guy was hiding evil intentions and did not want to do good things. Just go for this and don't cheat anyone!

It's just that Kornilov and Nasimov didn't know that the reason why Li Xiao went to find Shuvalov at this time was not entirely to cheat, but he had noticed that Shuvalov seemed to have other actions before. , The target of these small actions is Bestuzhev Ryumin.

Li Xiao knows too well what Bestuzhev Ryumin means to Grand Duke Konstantin. This head of the secret police is not only his confidant, but also his important source of information, and also a black hand who specializes in doing dirty work for him. .

If Bestuzhev Ryumin collapsed, it would be very rude to say that Grand Duke Constantine became deaf and blind.

Li Xiao didn't intend to make Duke Constantine deaf and blind before, but this time, after a few tricks with this guy, he found that this guy is not the usual vile nor the usual difficult, Cornello Mr. Fu and Nasimov have obviously been targeted by him. Maybe this guy is planning to blackmail them with tricks!

In order to ensure the safety of Kornilov and Nasimov, Li Xiao felt that he had to get rid of Bestuzhev Ryumin, even if this would deal a severe blow to the reformists, and it would probably affect their success in Ukraine and the future. The layout of the three interiors. But Li Xiao never regarded himself as a reformer, nor did he think about what he would do for this political group.

Everything Li Xiao did from the beginning to the end was actually for himself and his friends, he didn't bother to care about other people!

As for whether the reformists will suffer heavy losses due to the collapse of Bestuzhev Ryumin, which will affect the overall reform of the Russian Empire in the future, what Li Xiao wants to say is too much worry. Do you think that the future reforms of Alexander II were really brought about by those reformers? Or did he do it voluntarily?

Alexander II was completely overwhelmed by the situation at home and abroad, and finally had no choice but to reluctantly start reforms. Li Xiao believes that as long as the Crimean War starts as scheduled, no matter how much the reformists suffer temporarily, it won't have any particularly big impact. Because this war almost pushed the Romanov family into hell again.

Compared with death,

I believe that Alexander II would still be very willing to compromise temporarily and carry out some reforms.

"Have you been keeping an eye on him?"

Anton replied confidently: "Don't worry, according to your request, I will choose veterans, there will be no mistakes!"

Li Xiao nodded, and asked again: "What has he been doing these days?"

"I ran around and met a lot of people."

"Meet a lot of people?" Li Xiao repeated with a sneer, then looked at Shuvalov outside the car window, and said contemptuously, "You think you can get away with it!"

Li Xiao knew very well that Earl Shuvalov must not be judged by common sense, because he was an out-and-out venomous snake, his whole body was rotten to the point of pus, every movement and even every word was full of conspiracy. This cunning and hypocritical scum can never be too careful.

Li Xiao asked again: "Did you go to see Berkh and Razumovski?"

"Yes!" Anton nodded, and introduced in detail: "We each met once and talked for about an hour."

Li Xiao sneered and said, "Only met once?"

Anton flipped through the records in his hand and affirmed, "Only once!"

This is actually abnormal. As the culprits of the conservative defeat in the Black Sea Fleet this time, the role of Berkh and Razumovski is beyond doubt. Anyone who is not a fool can see that there is something wrong with these two people.

As the representative of Earl Uvarov and the head of the conservative faction temporarily in charge of handling the affairs of the Black Sea Fleet, Shuvalov must have a good chat with Berkh and Razumovsky anyway.

Whether it was questioning the truth or threatening abuse, Shuvalov had to bite these two people firmly, and let them give an explanation or an explanation. So no matter what, he can't just see these two people, unless he is already like a mirror in his heart, knowing that neither of these two people can be relied on, and whether he meets them or not doesn't make much sense.

Hearing this analysis, Anton blurted out: "Then Bierhe is miserable!"

Just this sentence proved Anton's growth, why did he only say that Berge was miserable? Because if Li Xiao's analysis just now is correct, then Bierge must have been blacklisted by the conservatives, and this guy will definitely not be able to gain the trust of the conservatives in the future, and he may face retaliation from the conservatives.

What? Why is Razumovski not miserable? The reason is very simple, who would let the latter be the commander of the military police of the Black Sea Fleet!

Razumovski still has value, while Berge has no value, and a traitor who is completely worthless is naturally the worst.

Anton immediately asked, "Do you want to talk to Razumovski again?"

Li Xiao shook his head and said: "It's not necessary, we can't talk about anything. That old guy is the most naughty, and he won't let go of the eagle if he doesn't see a rabbit. We don't have much leverage to talk to him for now, so there's no need to waste time."

Li Xiao suddenly sneered and said, "What's more, with his personality, it's not surprising that he is a double agent or even a triple agent. He is such a person! And I hope he will do it too!"

Anton nodded slightly. Li Xiao had told him about Razumovski's arrangement, and he also knew that this fellow was actually a master who could act according to the wind, and no one would let him He is devoted to loyalty, and he will listen to whoever has the upper hand. From the perspective of the situation, although Grand Duke Constantine is only an acting commander, he occupies a righteous position. At this time, it is really too expensive to want him to cooperate. Big and not worth it.

Anyway, as long as you regain the upper hand in the future, he will raise his hands and surrender sooner or later, so why waste time and energy grinding your teeth with him!

At this moment, Li Xiao pointed to Shuvalov and said to Anton: "This person is more important to us. From now on, you must keep an eye on him. No detail of his every move can be ignored." Let go!"
