"Your Excellency, do we really want to do this? Once revealed, the consequences will be unimaginable. Lieutenant General Bruchlov reminded.

After all, Nicholas II was the tsar of the Russian Empire anyway. Grand Duke Mikhail directly sent someone to assassinate him, which is simply a big disobedience!

What's more, the tsar had a very great influence in the minds of the people of the ordinary Russian Empire.

Even if it succeeds, once it leaks out. Then, Grand Duke Mikhail in the Russian Empire will inevitably be like a rat crossing the street, everyone will shout and beat.

"Your Excellency Chief of Staff, we have no other choice. After my father's death, Nikolai began to suppress us. In the first three months of this year, only half of our military expenses were received, and the rest were in arrears. Over there at the Black Sea Fleet, even more so. The Admiralty has shelved our shipbuilding application program. If it goes on like this, Nikolai will be aggressive. At that time, I am afraid that our generals and officers will be directly removed, or even take over our army. Our efforts over the years have been in vain. I would never accept that something like this could happen! Grand Duke Mikhail looked resolute.

"Your Excellency, if we fail, then we must be ready for all-out war!" Lieutenant General Brusilov said.

"Even if it is an all-out war, we have a good chance of winning. Our army, although only half the number of the army controlled by Nikolai. However, neither the firepower nor the combat effectiveness of the soldiers can be compared with the waste of the army. Our only disadvantage is that it cannot last, and we must solve it quickly. Otherwise, our financial resources will not last. "Grand Duke Mikhail also has a clear understanding of his strength.

In Volgograd, there was an arsenal that he carefully built, the largest in the entire Russian Empire. The equipment used also came from the Germanic Empire.

This is also the reason why the troops of the Caucasus Military District, after the change of equipment, have a very different caliber of weapons from the Tsarist Imperial Army.

In particular, the Tsarist Imperial Army was equipped with field guns of 76.2 mm caliber, and howitzers of 122 mm and 152 mm. However, the Caucasus Army was armed with 75 mm field guns and 105 mm and 155 mm howitzers.

Whether it is to expand the army or to change the clothes of the troops on a large scale, this is very expensive.

Even though Alexander III subsidized Grand Duke Mikhail a lot, he even left a rich inheritance to Grand Duke Mikhail after his death. However, the money was spent less and less, and now there is not much left.

In the entire Caucasus, the only pillar industry is probably the oil exploitation of the Baku oil field.

But at present, the amount of oil used in the world is not large, and the export of oil from the Baku oil field simply cannot support the huge army of the entire Caucasus Military District.

Therefore, Grand Duke Mikhail was eager to solve Nicholas II as soon as possible and seize the throne. At that time, it will be able to use the financial resources of the entire Russian Empire to support a strong army in preparation for future wars.

Although the Russian Empire was also very poor, the poor people could not eat enough, and they could not even wear pants.

However, there were no less rich people in the Russian Empire. Capitalists, bankers, big landowners, big bureaucrats, one by one, they are rich.

After the succession to the throne and the supreme power of the Tsarist Empire, there were means to take money out of these guys.

If nothing else, the gold in the secret vault of the Tsarist Empire alone is thousands of tons! That's a huge fortune!

I have to admit that the successive tsars of the Russian Empire, although the level of governance is not good, but they are definitely a good hand in accumulating wealth!

So many generations of tsars came down and amassed an extremely large fortune.

But unfortunately, after the collapse of the Russian Empire, all this wealth fell into the hands of the Cloth Party.

In other words, Grand Duke Mikhail became the tsar, and he would definitely not let these riches lie in the dark treasury.

All this money had to be spent and turned into the industrial and military strength of the Russian Empire in order to strengthen the overall strength of the Russian Empire and enable the Russian Empire to win future wars, rather than collapse.

Grand Duke Mikhail had many ideas about the development of the Russian Empire in the future. However, these ideas were to be realized only if he replaced Nicholas II as the tsar of the Russian Empire and became the ruler of the country. Otherwise, everything is empty words.

It is precisely for this reason. Therefore, Grand Duke Mikhail made up his mind that he had to get rid of Nicholas II.

In this way, he could seize the throne at minimal cost and become the tsar of the Russian Empire.

"Don't worry, we're ready. This time, the plan will definitely succeed! Grand Duke Mikhail said.

"Yes, Your Excellency!" Seeing this, Lieutenant General Brusilov had to say nothing more.

"Your Excellency, we have reliable information that in three days, His Majesty the Tsar will return to Petersburg from the imperial village, and we plan to start on the way. Everything is ready, His Majesty the Tsar this time, he will definitely die! Major General Vasily looked extremely confident.
