Struggle in Russia

Yes, Li Xiao has more important things to do. Lebouf has already proved the correctness of the news that the Russian army suffered a tragic defeat. So one can imagine what kind of excitement will be caused when this news reaches Pace. waves.

But Li Xiao is a little strange, because according to the time calculation, this short battle has already happened for ten days, and it is not particularly far from the Balkhatian Pass to Pest, and ten days is enough time for the news to come back.

But now there is no news about Pace in the world at all. All the newspapers have no news. It stands to reason that such a major victory should be publicized!

But the most news circulating in Pest now is that several newspapers published a news about the size of a tofu cube, saying that Russian troops had invaded Hungary, but there was no specific information. Neither the number nor the victory was mentioned. At most, there was no source of gossip saying that the north might have won the battle.

This makes people very strange. The news that should be widely disseminated seems to be artificially suppressed. Why is this? And who did it? Or what is the purpose of this?

Li Xiao is a person who is good at thinking. After finding something wrong, he immediately started to investigate the truth. At first, he thought it was done by the constitutional monarchy faction headed by Bajani, because blocking the news of victory seemed to be more beneficial to them.

After all, the Baujani gang has suffered heavy blows recently. Whether it is the failure of the constitution, the escape of Grand Duke Stephen or the victory of Kossuth, it has dealt a heavy blow to the political reputation and political intentions of the constitutional monarchy.

If the Hungarian people knew at this time that Kossuth's people had won another big victory in the north and beat up the Russians, then Kossuth's reputation would directly rise to the sky. That Baojani group really has nothing to do, and can only be at the mercy of Kossuth.

So the current situation may be that Bajani and his gang deliberately blocked the news, only talking about the Russian invasion, but not the victory, and they can use Russia to create panic. Under this panic, the Hungarians may choose to back down and compromise. The constitutional monarchy is naturally the most favorable.

It's just that this kind of idea was quickly rejected by Li Xiao, because although this kind of speculation seems to be true, it seems reasonable. But there was actually one biggest loophole, and that loophole was Kossuth's reaction.

Kossuth is no little white rabbit! As a radical faction, as a main combat faction, the battles in the north and the south are now under his control. If others don't know the situation in the north, will he not know?

Anyway, this victory in the north may have been hidden from the constitutional monarchy faction, but it will never be hidden from him. If he knows, how can he just watch and do nothing, unless...

【Unless he is the one who concealed the battle report! 】

Li Xiao came to a conclusion without much effort,

It should be Kossuth or the radical faction that Kossuth belongs to who concealed the news. The reason is naturally to make troubles, and the target of being disturbed is naturally the constitutional monarchy faction headed by Bajani.

is this necessary?

Of course there are, don't look at the horrible mess of the constitutional monarchy in this paragraph, but it doesn't mean that they are in a slump. Baugjani is still the prime minister of the cabinet, and the constitutional monarchy still has many supporters among the people, and its strength should not be underestimated!

At least at this time, Kossuth is unable to replace him and form a new responsible cabinet to replace Baojani. But being incompetent does not mean that Kossuth has no ideas. In fact, judging from his resume, this man is definitely ambitious. For him, since he has come to this point, it is a matter of course to go further, so it is a normal choice to take advantage of this opportunity to join Jani and his group.

Deliberately concealing news and then inciting public opinion is not a particularly complicated method, and it is even more trivial for politicians. If Kossuth uses it, there is no need to be surprised. On the contrary, it will make people feel strange if he doesn't use it.

And the effect is definitely worth looking forward to, at least Li Xiao can now see that the Hungarian public opinion, especially the public opinion in Pest, is a bit imminent. There have even been gossip rumors circulating that Bajani and the constitutionalists are blocking the news.

It is conceivable what the effect will be when Kossuth lifts the lid and opens the sluice with his own hands. I am afraid that his reputation will jump to a higher level at that time. It can make the power in your hands bigger!

Based on this knowledge, Li Xiao became more interested in Kossuth. Judging from all aspects of the situation, this lawyer is not a good guy, and he must have passed the thick and black school. It has far surpassed the degree to which ordinary revolutionaries cling to teachings or dogmas, and they really go straight to the core goal without hesitation.

You have to be very careful when dealing with such a person, because his bottom line is very hard to say, and if he fails, he will be tricked to death by all means. But at the same time, such a person is also the smartest partner, which can save you a lot of worry. Especially for Li Xiao, who is so focused on causing trouble for Austria, a partner with means and methods is more worth looking forward to. It would be cheating to change to a pig teammate who was like a lump of wood.

Li Xiao's long-awaited meeting soon took place under the arrangement of the Earl of Perth. Kossuth is finally back!

"Thank you for your generosity and great support for the Hungarian revolution! Hungary will never forget your contribution!"

It could be seen that Kossuth was in a good mood, and Li Xiao guessed that it was probably because of the three blessings. Both the north and the south have won battles, especially the victory in the north can trick Jani, coupled with his foreign friend who came uninvited and boldly, it is understandable that Kossuth is so happy that his back teeth are exposed.

"As for the arms deal you mentioned, we also welcome it! Our revolution needs more armed forces, but we don't have much to do in the face of the blockade. As long as you can bring valuable weapons and ammunition, as long as the price is right, how many of us How much does it cost!"

Li Xiao just listened to Kossuth's words, and would not take it seriously at all. Not to mention that he had already killed him first to make the price fair, but that this guy was only the chairman of the National Defense Committee, and he was not qualified to make decisions on behalf of the Hungarian Parliament.

After all, buying arms requires parliamentary funding, but are the Hungarians rich now? That's definitely not the case, after all, if you have money, who will rebel!

So don’t look at Kossuth’s words while patting his chest, but they are all empty promises, that is to say, Li Xiao is not a serious arms dealer, and he doesn’t particularly care whether the arms make money, or he will really be cheated by this unscrupulous guy Have to doubt life!
