Chapter 130: Thoughts (3)

Of course, it's not so easy to make a fuss, you have to be very careful about the proportions. To be honest, Li Xiao is not sure about this, because it is really difficult.

why? Because Li Xiao or Wallachia's position on this matter is very painful. If possible, Li Xiao naturally did not want Nicholas I to continue to put pressure on Turkey to seize Bulgaria.

To be honest, Russia has gained much more than it has in history. Taking advantage of the opportunity of the European revolution, Russia has basically put Moldavia and Wallachia on the dinner plate, which is really a major breakthrough. Logically speaking, it should be satisfied, but Nicholas I was a man with a lot of desires, so he was ready to attack Bulgaria again.

From Turkey's point of view, this is fundamentally a wolf's ambition to kill me, and it's no wonder if it doesn't fight Russia desperately. In addition, from the perspective of Britain and France, they have already made concessions on the issue of Moldavia and Wallachia last time. It stands to reason that Russia should be grateful. Even if it is not grateful, it should know how to measure it. But now Woolen cloth? Not at all, still pressing on every step of the way, so if you don't teach me a lesson, who will I teach?

Obviously, what Nicholas I did was to kill him, and Li Xiao definitely didn't want to be buried with him, but the problem now is that Nicholas I has too much power, no one can stop him from dying . In this way, there is only one road before Wallachia, and that is—survive from death.

He just tried his best to survive under the most dangerous conditions, so even if Li Xiao knew that the mentality of engaging in Turkey was dangerous at this time, in order to change the owner of the Black Sea Fleet, he could still take the risk.

According to the plan he discussed with Kornilov and Nasimov, the pressure and demonstrations against Turkey will be very aggressive. If the demonstration had been in charge of Kornilov or Nasimov, both of them would have done everything possible to humiliate the Turks. For example, blatantly intercepting and searching the Turkish fleet, or attacking Turkish merchant ships or fishing boats in front of the Turkish fleet.

In short, it is to anger the Turks to death. If the Turks can endure it, then go one step further. Anyway, according to the plan of Li Xiao, Kornilov and Naximov, they can bombard the Turkish fleet or the coast at the very best.

As long as this is done, those journalists who don't need Li Xiao to help the flames in Britain and France will add fuel to these atrocities in Russia and promote them at home. At that time, all the power of public opinion will be vented on Nicholas I or the Black Sea Fleet.

At that time, there will be two possibilities. One is that Nicholas I became angry and felt ashamed, and felt that what the Black Sea Fleet did had ruined his glorious image in the hearts of the people of Western Europe. At that time, the responsibility of the Black Sea Fleet will naturally be investigated. At this time, Kornilov and Nasimov only need to pass the bulk of the responsibility to Berkh and admit their mistakes voluntarily.

Why do you say this is enough? Because there are not many choices in front of Berge at this time,

If he voluntarily admits that he was wrong because of Nicholas I's temperament, although he will not really blame the lieutenant general, he still needs to be reprimanded in face, and it is very likely that he will have to be removed from office.

In this way, Li Xiao's goal was achieved.

Of course, Berge can live and die without acknowledging his mistakes. At that time, Kornilov or Nasimov's active admission made him very passive. What would Nicholas I think of him, would he feel that he was a commander who was uninterested? At that time, even if Nicholas I didn't directly spank his ass, I'm afraid it would make his life worse than death.

In this way, as long as Kornilov or Nasimov moves a little more and finds some other mistakes made by Berge, this guy can be sent away in minutes.

Of course, this is an analysis based on the temper of Nicholas I who wanted to save face. If he doesn't feel ashamed, and even thinks that Berge and the Black Sea Fleet have done a good job and suits his wishes, then Li Xiao also has a plan.

At that time, without the instigation of him or Kornilov and Nasimov, these generals of the Black Sea Fleet would also scream to find trouble with the Turks. I am angry until the end.

Whether it was the Turks who couldn't bear to say no to Russia, or Nicholas I himself was angry and thought that the Black Sea Fleet was doing something, then Berge would have no good fruit. Who made him the commander of the Black Sea Fleet? This board will hit his ass no matter what, he won't be able to run away!

What? You said that this move is to kill one thousand enemies and harm eight hundred? Kornilov and Nasimov are easy to get involved, right?

In fact, there is no way to do it. It is impossible to do anything with only advantages and no disadvantages. It is impossible to gain without giving. For Li Xiao, what needs to be considered is whether the ratio between income and contribution is appropriate.

After analyzing it, we can see that this matter can still be done. With the status of Kornilov and Nasimov in the Black Sea Fleet, to put it bluntly, Berkh occupies the position of commander and has a righteous name, otherwise With the abilities, qualifications, and connections of these two, Berge can be overtaken in minutes.

The most important thing is that the status of these two people is very important, no matter which one has sufficient reasons and identities to take on this errand. And after the errand is successful, even if Nicholas I wants to save face, as long as one of them voluntarily "surrenders himself" to admit his mistakes, then Nicholas I is unlikely to really punish them to death, at most it is symbolic The punishment is over.

To take a step back, even if Nicholas I is really crazy, it doesn’t matter if one of them is beaten to the end, as long as the subsequent plan successfully kills Berge and helps Grand Duke Constantine to be the commander, he can slowly Help the officer reinstated.

It can only be said that Lazarev's management in the Black Sea Fleet was too successful that year. Both disciples were sent to key positions, and even if one was missing, the other could help support the sky.

So in this kind of mutual cover-up, as long as the two of them don't fall all at once, it won't be too easy to make a comeback later.

But Berge couldn't do it. He was simply a bare-bones commander. Without this honor, he was nothing. It was impossible for him to fight against the combination of Kornilov and Ganasimov. If it is not to give Nicholas I some face, the combination of Li Xiao, Kornilov and Naximov can make his life worse than death every minute, okay?
