Chapter 449 Seeing May Not Be True

David Lebouf smiled bitterly: "No one can say for sure, I can only tell you that according to the current situation and state, war is very likely to break out, but if you want to say when it will break out, you have to ask Niguel It's been a lifetime!"

Li Xiao also knew that this question was a bit difficult for others. The only person who could determine when the war would break out was indeed Nicholas I. If he does not change his unrealistic ambitions for Bulgaria, if he continues to aggressively threaten Turkey with force, war will break out at any time.

On the contrary, if he reined in the precipice, as long as he could be a little bit more rational, this matter would not evolve into what it was in history.

It's just that Li Xiao knew that things would eventually turn out as they were in history, not only because Nicholas I had no safety valve for his ambitions. More importantly, Count Rostovtsev and his group of reformers have been fighting against each other, hoping that Nicholas I will fall into a tumble.

Moreover, those noble officers in the country who have green eyes for military exploits are also looking forward to the start of the fight. Under the influence of so many factors, there is no way for the gods to bring Russia back, okay?

After Li Xiao gave a wry smile, he said to David Lebouf: "Uncle David, I would like to ask, have you noticed that France is preparing for war?"

David Lebouf was stunned, this question is more confidential, but he still answered bluntly: "There is no news about this yet, Andre, if there is any trouble in this regard, I will report it as soon as possible." Told you!"

If you look at it this way, David Leboeuf is a bit like a traitor, but he doesn't really care, and he also knows that Li Xiao is so concerned about France's war readiness, not to remind Nicholas I or Russia, he just wants to protect Just Wallachia.

Wallachia has put too much effort into him. Once a war breaks out, Wallachia will be the first to be involved, and it is very likely that his efforts over the years will be in vain.

So it's normal to make some preparations in advance. On the other hand, the reason why David Lebouf leaked the news to Li Xiao without any scruples is also because he also has extensive interests in Wallachia.

In short, Li Xiao and his group have been closely tied to Wallachia, and everyone is prosperous, and everyone is hurt. Naturally, those who can provide information will help provide information, and those who can help will never be stingy.

It's just that the more you care about David Leboeuf and others in Wallachia, the more you realize that the situation is developing in the worst direction. You are simply afraid of something. What do you call this!

"How are you going to do it?"

David LeBoeuf subconsciously believed that Li Xiao would not sit still,

Will choose to intervene, even if it cannot prevent the outbreak of the war, it will actively delay the outbreak of the war and give Wallachia more preparation time.

But this time Li Xiao just smiled wryly: "I can't do anything, the only thing I can do is to pray, and pray that the war will not break out immediately!"

David Lebouf was stunned, because this was not like the resourceful Li Xiao he knew. Li Xiao would never give up no matter what the situation was before, and would rack his brains to find a countermeasure no matter how difficult it was. What's going on this time?

Li Xiao spread his hands and said: "Because I have already done everything I can do. What I can't do is that it is useless for me to think of a way. This war is doomed to break out, and even a lot of people want to break out as soon as possible. The better, even if I have ten thousand catties of strength, I can't pull a carriage that's all about rushing towards the cliff!"

These words contain a lot of information, David Lebouf immediately heard the hidden meaning, and he immediately asked: "Is it the earl's problem?"

Li Xiao sighed and said: "That count does have problems, but he is not the most critical problem, and even the problems he brought are good. What is worse is the problems of Nicholas I and his ministers. is the biggest problem! And you know, my influence on them is completely negligible!"

David Lebouf also sighed, he was the only one who knew how difficult Li Xiao's life was, and he was clearly considered a nobleman of the heavenly family, but who would have thought that there would be such a father on the table, and then there would be an old naughty uncle.

Anyway, the welfare of the Tian family has not caught up at all, but there are a lot of bad things that have been caught. If he had already exploded, how could he be so hard to support.

In fact, Li Xiao doesn't want to hold on so hard, do you think he doesn't want to explode? The question is what's the point of bursting? And how did it explode?

His influence on Russian officialdom is bluntly said to be an unknown person, and only a few people may pay attention to the dead body on the spot.

So how did it explode? I'm afraid Nicholas I would have slapped him to death before he could explode.

Li Xiao knew very well that if he wanted to live like a human being, he could never count on the mercy of Nicholas I's family. That family would have no pity for him at all, and wished to kill him.

If he wants to live, he can only fight hard, he can only survive from death, he can only grit his teeth and hold on step by step. Only when he becomes stronger and stronger and drags the enemy down weaker and weaker, can he survive freely.

Li Xiao took a deep breath and said slowly: "If my expectations are correct, the key reason why the war did not break out immediately is the attitude of Count Nesselrode. He should have imposed a lot on Menshikov. The pressure from the old eunuch forced the old eunuch to oppress Turkey according to his instructions. He probably thought he could frighten Turkey into submitting obediently!"

David Lebouf thought for a while and said, "In other words, the only one who is preventing the outbreak of war is Nesselrode?"

Li Xiao nodded. This result made David Lebouf laugh. Only a diplomat like him knows how ridiculous the twists and turns are. Taking his own feelings as an example, he could feel that the diplomats of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs were yelling at Turkey one by one, looking like they were about to go to war.

But who would have thought that these were all fake, their boss Nesselrode had actually been secretly holding back, preventing the Russian chariot from crossing the final red line. But now the whole of Europe is actually scolding Nesselrode, saying that he was led badly by the Russians and became Nicholas I's lackey, an out-and-out warmonger.

If these people who insulted Nesselrode knew the truth, I really don't know what their expressions would be, but it's interesting to think about it anyway. David Lebouf has to admit that what he sees may not be true in many cases, especially in the field of diplomacy. There are too many movie stars in this industry...
