The letter was very long, and Shuvalov wrote almost everything he saw and heard in detail. If outsiders saw it, they would laugh at him as a journal. But Shuvalov knew that Earl Uvarov wanted a running account, and he didn't want to read beautiful articles. What's the use of such colorful things?

What Count Uvarov wanted was the detailed story of the incident, what he wanted was lessons learned, and the most important thing was to figure out why he failed this time.

As for the reason for the failure, Count Shuvalov was thinking about it when he was fine along the way, but after much deliberation and searching for various reasons, he still felt that he couldn't figure it out.

At first, he felt that it was Grand Duke Constantine's strong intervention that disrupted their steps, causing them to lose everything with one careless move. But later he felt that this was not the case. The intervention of Grand Duke Constantine was at best an introduction. Without this Grand Duke, Nicholas I might not have the idea of ​​​​removing Berge.

But Grand Duke Constantine is not that critical, because he came too late, and it was not enough to turn the world upside down and let him return without success.

After much deliberation, Shuvalov felt that their biggest failure was the delay in news. Judging from what happened to Baron Titov, the other party had obviously gotten the news a long time ago, otherwise they would not have been able to successfully disrupt their rhythm.

But the problem is that the distance from St. Petersburg to Sevastopol is certain, even if the horse speeds up, it is impossible to go that much faster. What's more, Titov's hands and feet are not slow, he can already run fast.

So how did the other party get the news in advance?

This question made Shuvalov puzzled. How could he, a conservative diehard, know the power of science and technology? He said bluntly that he was a toad in a well, and his vision was really narrow.

But Shuvalov's vision is narrow, but Shuvalov is really smart. He will ask those who can help him figure out the problems he can't figure out, such as Uvarov. He believes that with the energy of this earl, he can figure it out. The secret of this is not difficult.

Shuvalov guessed this right. When Earl Uvarov read his letter, he immediately realized that the most critical issue was the speed of message transmission. He was obviously much faster than him, otherwise he could sit back and wait for the rabbit?

But he couldn't figure out why, but as Shuvalov expected, he quickly brought in a group of confidants and staff to discuss this issue together.

"Let's talk about it, is there a faster route to the Black Sea!" Earl Uvarov said in a deep voice, "Your task is to find this route, I don't want to fall on the same route for the second time." It's in a pit!"

With his order, the staff members naturally began to discuss enthusiastically, but the opinions they gave were not so satisfactory, because after discussion and discussion, these people still circled around the route or horses.

Some said that the route chosen by the other party may be easier to travel, but the problem is that the road conditions in the whole of Russia are there, so how good can it be?

Others said that the other party might set up a secret station system, select good horses, and set up stations widely, so that they can gallop all the way.

It’s just that Uvarov knew that this was nonsense, because this kind of post system required an astronomical amount of capital investment. With the vastness of Russia, except for the tsar who could use the power of the country to create such a system, there was no other way. There are two people.

What's more, to build such a huge system just to deliver a few messages, how heartless it must be to do this! The ratio between the input and output benefits is not equal at all, no one would be so stupid!

Anyway, Uvarov didn't agree with these two items, but what made him depressed was that among the methods that this group of staff came up with, only these two items were a little bit more reliable, and the others were close to turning into superstitious theories.

Although Uvarov is conservative, he is not superstitious, let alone ignorant, okay? He doesn't believe a single word of these nonsense!

"A bunch of trash!"

Suddenly Uvarov was annoyed,

I feel that raising such a large number of people is a waste of food, and it is useless at critical moments.

Just when Count Uvarov was full of anger, the butler suddenly announced: "My lord, Duke Bariatinsky is visiting!"

Uvarov's eyebrows immediately twitched. Bariatinsky ran over at this time, whether he came early or late. Could it be that he heard something?

Count Uvarov felt a little uneasy, for the simple reason that this time the Black Sea Fleet broke. Berge's sudden dismissal was a major setback, and what was even worse was that they didn't have time to clean up their hands and plant mines in the Black Sea Fleet. Eighty-eight, maybe the Black Sea Fleet will become a liberal paradise again.

Such a big matter definitely needs to be explained. Even a giant like Uvarov must explain the reason clearly to the younger brother below, especially why he failed to close the matter successfully.

After all, it was understandable that Berge was dismissed, but if he didn't do a good job in the subsequent work, he couldn't explain it at all.

After Uvarov received Shuvalov's long letter, in addition to carefully studying the reasons for this failure, he was also secretly thinking about how to explain it to the outside world. But he found several reasons, but they were not so satisfactory. If he really had to explain it like that, he would feel ashamed and flustered.

But at this difficult time, Bariatinsky came running to the door. Do you think you can stop people from daydreaming?

If it was someone else, Uvarov would block the door with a word, but Bariatinsky can't. His position is too important, and it is related to the future of the conservatives. Even Uvarov must give him some money. Divide into thin noodles.

After thinking for a while, Uvarov sighed and ordered, "Invite him to my study."

Uvarov knew that the disaster could not be avoided. Since Bariatinsky had come to him, hiding was the stupidest way to cover up, and he couldn't cover it up at all. It would be better to go straight to the opponent and at least take the initiative in terms of momentum. .

"Count, I heard that you are ill? How are you doing? Are you feeling better?"

As soon as Uvarov and Bariatinsky met each other, the latter was very enthusiastic. He greeted him warmly as soon as he came up, and he seemed to be here to visit the sick.

But Uvarov didn't believe that Baryatinsky was just here to visit the sick, or that he was here to see if he was dead or not. For them, conservative new forces Let’s talk about it, but I hope he kicks his legs sooner!
